The Oregon supreme court has hand
cd down decision to the effect that
a man who enters train locomotive
does not thereby become a passenger
even though the engineer directs him
TO do 70. He is guilty Of negligence
and can not recover damages II In
jured. The opinion is as follows:
"The plaintiff. havisg voluntarily enter
ed car on the train Of the defendant
which was obviously not intended for
the carriage of passengers, and which
he must have known and did know was
designated exclusively for the employees
OF the railway company, was not, In
our opinion, passenger, and Is not
entitled to recover for that reason
But, II we are mistaken, and under any
possible view he Is regarded as a pas
senger at the time OF the accident. he
was guilty Of such contributory negli-
gence, as matter of law, in riding in
the engine as would bar recovery.
The engineer had no authority to
bind the company by accepting him as
a passenger on the engine. II the
plaintiff had got on the engine by the
command or direction of the eonduc-
tor, a different question would be pre-
sented."

QUARTERLY MEETING
INTERESTING INCIDENTS IN CON-
NECTlON WITH DECATUR VET
ERANs WHO ATTENDED THE
REUNION AT NASHVILLE.

New Decatur, June 16-(SpeciaL)-Th
regular quarterly meeting of the Tennes-
see Valley Medical association came to
a close here last night.
A number of interesting subjects were
discussed and the meeting was very
profitable, though the attendance was
quite small owing to the fact that a
number of the members of the association
are in attendance at the Confederate Vet
Grams reunion, which is being held in
Nashville. State Health Officer Sanders
Of Montgomery was here yesterday and
reported that there was not a case of
smallpox in this locality. The Decaturs
have been free of this disease for some
time. The Tennessee Valley Medical as
ISOLATION will hold their next quarterly
meeting in Decatur on the second Tues
day in October, and 1t Is expected that
this meeting win be largely attended.
During the war between the states Sam
Mccullough, who lived a few miles out
in the country from this city, mysteri-
ously disappear ed, and 1T was supposed
that he had been murdered by certain
parties who were opposed to the south.
No trace of him was ever found until yes
terday, when some of the old Confeder-
ate soldiers from this locality, who knew
him and who were In Nashville attending
the Confederate veterans reunion, wan
dered out to the soldiers cemetery in
Nashville and found a grass-covered
mound which bore this inscription: Sam
Mccullough" He had Joined the south
ern army and was killed in battle, and
his people and friends never knew what
his fate was until yesterday, when two
Loary headed old veterans happened to
find his grave by accident
Quite a number of old soldiers from the
Decaturs and surrounding country are at
tending the Confederate Veterans re-
union at Nashville this week
One of the most unique characters of
the veterans is Uncle Mingo Evans, an
old coored man of Decatur. He was one
of the many negroes of the south who
stood loyal to the Confederaey, and he
served as company cook in an Alabama
company throughout the war. Uncle
Mingo has attended every reunion since
the war. and the old fellow always looks
forward to the coming of these reunions
with much pride and pleasure. The white
people of Decatur always make up a
collection to defray the expenses Of
Uncle Mingo's trip to these reunions

events in the history of the association
on account of the two eloquent addresses
made by Superintendent of Education /.
w. Hill and Governor r. l.. Cunningham.
The evening session was opened with
prayer by the Rev. DIR. Snedecor. Super
intendent Hill mapped out the course edu-
cation had taken during the past CEN
fury and gave interesting statistics from
the earliest part of the century to the
present time. He told of the dark days
during the sixties, when carpet baggers
and scalawags had possession Of the state
and how instead of using the states
money for the education of the youths of
alabama 1t was stolen by incompetent and
unworthy office holders. He paid a
glowing tribute to Alexander B. Meek.
the poet, legislator and teacher, who in
February, 1858 framed laws so advan-
tageous to the educational interests of
the state who was a Tuscaloosian grad

Miss Ida Strawn of Chicago, who is to

valuable paper on Drawing in Pubic
Schools" She said that with the pencil
and brush 1t was the easiest, quickest and
best method of expressing ideas; also to
train the hand, the eye and back of the
eye, the mind and soul. She said that
for one to draw 1t was not necessary to

She said that drawing was a mode of
expression that presented Itself In no 9TH

with much care along those lines. Miss

have charge of the musical department
at the university summer school. read
a very strong and interesting paper on

said that there was not a child that
could not learn to read music with but
little trouble and not only could they learn
to read their notes but they could also
learn breathing, which would be of great
benefit as we'll as pleasure to the student
who engaged in the work. She said that
singing should be taught just as reading
was in daily schools and that great good,
pleasure and exercise would be the direct
and natural results. She said that there
was not a teacher who could not learn
and teach music in tie public schools.
