SHAW MADE ADDRESS.
SECRETARY OF THE TREASURY
K TALKS STRAIGHT REPUBLIC
ANlSM--REFusEs TO EN-
TER INTO THE IOWA
FIGHT.

Des Moines, March 24.-Before a
large and enthusiastic audience last
night, composed of representative citi-
zens, ~. NJ. Shaw, secretary of the
treasury, delivered an address on re-
publicanism at the annual meeting OF
the Polk County Republican club.
Mr.. Shaw, in a simple and direct
speech, argued against any change Ia
tariff schedules at present, because II
would endanger republican success in
1908, and declared himself in harmony
with the views of President Roosevelt.
Much interest was manifested
throughout the state in the address,
because it was expected the secretary
might enter into discussion of the
factional fight within the party In
Iowa. This, he said, he declined to
do. He declared republican orators
are again teaching discomfort" in re-
ferring to republican defeats of the
past, and several times during the
present session of congress, prominent
members Of the opposition party have
quoted a distinguished republican OF
this state as saying in effect that all
robberies and thefts committed by all
insurance officers since the life insur-
ance business was originated do not
amount to as much as the Dingley bill
for one year. This is but sample Of
what has been taught not only in this
but in other states"

AMUSING IGNORANCE.
Popular Prejudice Gives Birth to Queer
Ideas About Catholics.

Instances of amusing ignorance, In
cidents in which popular prejudice
played an important part in giving
rice to queer ideas regarding the Cath
Ollie church, Catholic ideas, and Cath
Ollie practices, were used last even
ing by Rev. Father Lambert in preach
ing at st. Mary's Mission, which is
drawing near it's close, in explanation
Of the beliefs and practices of the
church More than once the amuse.
ment of the Catholics at the weird no.
tons of those who know not, regard
ing the ceremonies of the church, was
manifested. Ludicorus and absolutely
ridiculous were some of the ideas as
retold by Father Lambert.
The Mission Priests sermon was
devoted to a calm statement of the
practices of the church, and rational
explanation of the many customs
which are to those who do not under
stand seemingly foolish. The beau
tiful significance of even the slightest
ceremonials or appurtenances to the
services, was shown IN his interpreta.
ton, while the rational and logical
reason for the ceremonies, and the ba-
sis of the Catholic beliefs regarding
what are to protestants mysteries, was
in a kindly manner SHOWN.
The Mission closes tomorrow with
the Solemn Papal Blessing, to which
under proper circumstances is at.
tached plenary indulgence. This
will follow the High Mass and Mission
sermon at 10 o'clock, while Low Mass
will be said at $50 and at o'clock
a. m, also.

During the battle, a regiment OF
rebel cavalry made a dash at the
house near the ford, used as hospi-
tai. Our brigade charged down to
the river bank and gave them a vol
ley, and the one battery left with us
gave them few solid shot, that made
them scamper back, leaving our
doctors and wounded unmolested.
The battle ceased at 8 p. m., with
our army considerably worsted. That
night, at "Rosy's" headquarters, all
the corps generals were assembled in
council. General Rosecrans asked
the starred crowd what he should do.

COMMONWEALTH OF KENTUCKY

The recent celebrations Of Home

attention that the Fourth Of July
was celebrated less vigorously than
usual.
There was a notable Fourth OF
July celebration at Winston in Estill

ident Frost, Col. Demaree and Capt.
Geo. NJ. jackson OF Wickliffe.
The return Of 30 many sous and
daughters Of Kentucky from other
states is likely 10 have a good effect
here at home. Most Of these former
Kentuckians have found homes in
the newer. more liberal and progress
siye communities in the West and
North. They come back with loyal
affection for the "old Kentucky home"
but they tell us plainly that a con
siderable element in Kentucky is
somewhat sleepy and clings too
closely 10 the ideals Of the past.
The ladies OF the Federation Of
Women's Clubs in their recent meet
ing al Mt. Sterling brought out the
important fact that the people OF
Kentucky are more dilatory in send
ing their children 10 the public
schools than the people OF any other
state in the Union, save one. Our
rural schools for this year are just
beginning and now is the time for us
10 improve the record.

the proper officers and citizens have
two beautiful opportunities 10 elevate
the character and reputation OF the
state by enforcing the law, or to dis
grace themselves and the state by
letting passion or prejudice rule in

Practical Arithmetic for

ARITHMETIcAL METHODS AND FORMS.
BY Prof. Charles d. Lewis

In deciding the question to what methods and
forms should be used three things must be considered
They must be, LIST, clear I'd, calculated to require
clear understanding before being explained 3D. OF the
greatest possible educational value. The second of
these requires that the forms be full enough guide
the thought in explanation, but full to make
them cutches for crippled minds to lean upon. The
third often gives the deciding argument in favor OF
OF two good forms, equally valuable from the two first
points of view The forms to be given not merely
from the writer's theory, but derived from his practical
experience.

FACTORS, pIvIsoRs AND MuLrIpLEs.

Factoring is one OF the most important topics in
arithmetic and should be given much thought, and
time. Always state the factors of number in he
equatonal form thus, 35 81 : Il and for older pupils
this may be changed with profit TO 35 = Is & y IL
In finding the G. c. ID. l.. c. NJ, first find the
factors of the numbers and from them take the
factors for the c. c. d. and the different factors each
used the greatest number OF times is found in any
OF them for L. c. NJ. This method has a great
advantage the old form of statement in two ways
st 1t gives practice in iactorng and 3D. In every OPP
Grafton the child must have clearly in mind the funda
mental idea of what the G. c. D. and L. C. M. are and
their relation to each other
Model solution:
Find the G. c. D. and L. c. NJ of 90, $50 and 27O

MULTIPLICATION AND DIVISION.

Only one thing need be added to what has already
been said these topics. See to il that when opera
ting with concrete numbers the following laws be OBJ
served: ls The multper must always be abstract 3D.
When the muluplcand concrete the product must be
concrete and Of the same kind the mulhplicand 3d.
When the divsor and dividend concrete the quoent
must be abstract 4th, When the dividend is concrete
and the dvsor abstract the quoent must be concrete
and the the dividend.
These principles, well adhered to, will force the
pupil into clear analysis than any thing that
be done and will prove of great value in future
