! Wholesome Lesson on School
DISCIPLINE,

The disposition made by the
Circuit Court of the prosecution
against Prof. II. S. Barron, charg-
ed with assault and battery upon
a pupil of the Sweet Water school
will doubtless have salutary
effect on the future of that school
and in the matter of maintaining
school discipline in general.
Nearly every school has a lot of
lnsubordinste pupils and if the
precedent is to be established that
a teacher is to be dragged into the
courts and prosecuted by a dis
gruntled parent every time he has
to administer a severe thrashing
to some unruly youngster, all
healthy school discipline would be
at an end. In this particular in
stance, the prosecution wholly
failed to make out very damag-
ing case against the teacher ac-
cording to the father and child's
own testimony, and he was fully
exonerated.
The law places the teacher of
every school in loco PARENTS; that
is, the teacher, while the child is
under his control, stands in the
place of the parent, and it is not
only the teachers right, but his
duty, to MAINTAIN healthy dis
cipline in the school and admins
ter punishment when needed just
as much as it is the duty of the
parent to do so as the head of the
family. What discipline and con-
troll they receive at school is about
all that the children of some par
ents ever get that is worth any
thing to them in after life.
Attorney M. Mccullough, who
is an ex -schonI teacher, and de-
Tended Prof. Barron in the justice
court and in the Circuit Court al
so, naturally felt very much elated
over the exoneration of his client,
with whom, by reason of his own
past experience as teacher, he
could enter into the fullest sy NJ
pathy.

Prepare for High
Water.

With an abundance of snow in
the mountains and the certainty
of a late spring there comes the
probability of freshet Of early
water surprising anything ex-
perienced since the year 1896.
We call attention TO the neces-
sity of preparing our water ways
for safely taking care of this
water. Within the memory OF
citizens Of our town the taking
care of early water was serious
problem. And though we are
much better prepared now than in
the early days for distributing and
handling the water, yet il is well
to provide against damage that
might even now result from high
water.

INSECTS THAT ARE MUSICAL
All Are Tenors--Males Are Always
the Observation-Disclosures in
Two Sections.

Musical insects of the winged
type may be divided into two
groups: ~ Those which do moi
use their wings and @ those
which do, for the production or
sound. OF the two, the latter spc
cies is by far the more numerous.
a very curious fact is that all in
sects are tenors, deep bass voices
being quite unknown; in addition
to this, the males are always the
performers, female insects being
dumb - contenting themselves
with stopping at home and look
ing after the children instead OF
standing at the front door singing
like their lords and masters, says
the Scientific American.
Many insects sing by day, such,
for instance, as the chickadee.
which, however, are not of the xvi
olinist" type, as they play upon a
series OF hard plates attached to
the abdomen, much in the same
way as Spanish dancer uses the
castanets. Another insect of this
type is the black field cricket.
which has it's home in a small.
cavelike dwelling it prepares in
the earth.
Other insects only sing by night
such, for instance, as the domes
tic and tree crickets, whose regu
lar moddlated notes are known to
every one. The apparatus used by
these insects exactly resembles Q
violin, the abdomen being partial
~ endowed with small bridgelikc
edges or ridges, against which thu
wings are rubbed, thus producing
the strident note characteristic of
the insect.
Other insects, such as locusts
and their kin, have veritable bows
covered with fine ridges and at
tached to the wings by two but
ton-like growths. Others have
cavities covered over with a fine
membrane which serve the Office
of resonators; in almost all in
sects of this type there is a parch
ment like part of the abdomen
which acts as kind of soundi.g
board. Strange to say, many Of
these harmonious insects are de
prived of hearing. Crickets, how
ever, are an exception, as the,
have sharp ears and cease thei'
vocal efforts at the sound of az
preaching footsteps. Some in
sects, although apparently de
prived of any means for the pro
duction of sound, are none the
less capable OF making a noise in
the world a notable instance Of
this is to be found in a locust re
io'cing in the euphonious name o.
Microcentrum tetinervis, which
produces short, monotonous note
like two pieces of metal or flint
rubbed together.

bad faith, and the defeated candidate
viii never know who to blame for the
downfall Of his ambitions. It is i'm
measurably useful in this line, and
aside from any positive and inherent
virtues and commendable utilities II
may have, this one convenience will
render it SO popular that it will be
hard TO displace. Half the burdens Of
political life may be swept into the

yOnd redemption and reproaeh. And it
il a good thing withal, for it diyests the
campaign OF hoard of bitter feuds
and party sores, and smoothes the way
for "ehueking" personal responsible

for the system it is almost enough to
commend it eyerlastingly TO the popu-
