The annual ball given by the
knights of Pythias at the opera house
on ), New Years eve was a very pleas
ant social event. It is always looked
forward to with happy anticipations
by. those who have attended the dances
given by the K. P's. in years past,
and there never is any disappointment.
The joyous spirit of the hour lends an
interest and charm to the event. and
this seasons ball was fully up to the
pleasure-standard of those. held in the
past. There were about eighty couple
present, just a comfortable, happy
crowd, and everybody enjoyed them
selves. Gallichio's orchestra was at
it's best and the Lady Maccabees
served a fine supper.

SCHOOLS AND
TEACHERS
SOME VACANCIES ARE TO BE
FILLED IN THE PUBLIC
ScHooLS-GREAT CARE
SHOULD, BE Ex-
ERcIsED.

/ There is vacancy to be filed il
the list of public school teachers in
the Third ward. There is some agita
| ton over the matter as there are sew.
eral applicants, and the issue is deci.
dedly uncertain. y tried and compe-
tent teacher is needed in this grade
and the appointment is awaited with
some anxiety by all interested in the
lower grades Of the school. The
names of the applicants have not been
given out, and no doubt the board
will select the teacher best fitted for
the work, but it is sometimes very
hard to decide just who this person
is. and divers means should be ap-
piled to test the applicants ability.
The teacher who passes the best
school examination is not always the
best teacher to put in charge of little
morals as well as instruct them in
book lore. 1t isn't every one who
knows how to impart knowledge, and
when this art is once mastered an
ideal teacher is found. One thing
seems positive to those who have
given any thought to the subject, and
that is that inexperienced boys and
girls fresh from the High School
should not given the responsibility of
little ones in our public schools. A
two years course in the Normal
should be obligatory before their eli
sibility as teachers should be consid-
cred. Ohio has some such law, and
West Virginia would be wise to adopt
il Also. We graduate youngsters
from our schools whose immature
Judgment is not fit to cope with ques-
tons which arise every day in a teach
er's life. They need training along |
many lines before they should be pro-
lounced competent to assume the
raining of others, and our schools
would then be placed upon higher
plane than they nowZoccupy
There are several appointments yet
% be made in the Normal, and all /
hese are awaited with interest.
Mr.. Showalter and MIR. LantZ, of
he public school board, are both out
If town, and in reasonable time
lfter their return, announcement will
,e made of their decision. 1t is not
inown how soon the Normal ap-
,ointees will be. given out, but the

tary attaches.
Japan is the only country of impor
tance represented in the foreign
corps, her attache being away on spe
cial duty.
The noticeable lack of discipline
and training among some Of the mi
litia organizations as compared with
the Regulars, has occasioned consid-
cradle comment about corps head
quarters.
Not only do these Eilitiamen fail to
show proper respect for regular Off
GERS, but even their own officers
seem to be unable to control them.
They look upon the maneuvres as
merely big outing for the purpose
of furnishing them SO much sport as
possible. Since the arrival of the
have been received by the Board of
officers known as the Claims
Board" from farmers, on account of
the wanton destruction of their crops
and the loss of fruit and chickens.
Prior to the arrival of the National
guard organizations not one report of
this character has been filed,
Yesterday an officer of high rank in
the regular army was riding through
the camp of the twelfth New York In
fantry, when he was hailed by pri-
vate in that organization with:
"Say, Bill, can you tell fellow
hn crnt nv hnn1o q
here?''
AS matter of interest, this officer
counted, as he rode through the
camp, the number OF men enlisted in
this organization who failed to give
him the prescribed salute. He en-
just forty men who refused
% recognize his rank, in any manner
beyond, possibly, surly nod of the
lead.
Every possible precaution has been
aiken to prevent any Clash between
he Regulars and Nfilitiamen, such
IS occurred at the recent maneuvres
n Ohio. A rigid inspection was made
asst night of all cartridge belts re-
ulting in the discovery that quite a
lumber of ball cartridges had been
,rought into camp. These have all
een confiscated.
Already ill-feeling has manifested
tself between the Southern militia
zen and the Connecticut negro troops.
The Southerners absolutely refuse
, salute negro officers and are out !
poken in their criticism of the ac-
ion of the War Department in order
ag negro soldiers to the maneuvres.
