Weighty-Heayy.

Everything is weigAy, since
weight is the natural tendency
which all bodies have to the GEN.
tire of the earth. Those bodies
which have much weight, either
in proportion to their bulk, or the
strength applied to them, are
heayy. Heavy qualities what can
not be easily lifted. A bag of
gold is heavier than bag of feath-
ers of the same size, because gold
has more weight than feathers.
The nature of the substance causes
it's weight. The quantity of the
substance causes it's heaviness. A
pound of feathers and a pound of
gold have equal weight; but feath-
ers and gold have not equal heavi-
ness. In moral sense, the same
difference is perceptible. A
weighty affair is one which is in
trinsically important; q heavy
charge is one difficult to get rid of.

Hannibal.

rom the IOuuulng " tuo OVo1.
throw of Carthage by the Romans,
there is only one name that stands
out in bold relief in her history.
That striking personality is Han
nibal, the man who gained the ac-
claim of the world for humbling
the pride of Rome, nation that
was feared by her friends and
respected by her enemies. Han
nibal was born in PAT B. O., and
at very early age he went to the
wars with his father, who COM
manded Carthaginian army. In
battle it is said that the youngster
was as fearless and as daring as
his parent Before his father
died, he made his son swear that
he would wage an incessant war
fare against Rome. How we'll be
carried out his dying fathers
command, the battles of Canine,
Capua, and Anio are sufficient
evidence that he remained true to
his promise.
Rome, perhaps, was never SO
nearly victim to foreign oppres-
sion as she was during the time
that Hannibal swept everything
but the city before his armies.
At one time he might have cap
tured the city, but he failed to
take advantage of the opportunity
until too late. IF this event had
occurred, Roman history would
undoubtedly have ended at that
period.
Hannibal, like Alexander the
Great, inherited his military gen.
i,ls from his father. In many re-
spects he was like Pyrrhus, the
restless king Of Epirus; a bold
fighter, a great leader of men, and
a clever strategist, but a mighty
poor organizer after the victory
had been won. Hannibal defeat
ed so many famous Roman gener-
ais that he imagined himself to be
another world conqueror-that the
god of battles was .perched upon
his banner. IF he had captured
the City of Rome there is no ques-
ton but what he would have run
amuck and made the rest OF the
nations pay tribute. His name
would today be coupled with Alex
ander the Great, Genghis Kahn,
and Napoleon.
Altho Hannibal succeeded in
imperiling the destiny of Roman
supremacy, his incursion was
doomed to failure. From the time
of his brothers death, HannibaPs
remarkable military genius de-
clined rapidly. This event was
not only the beginning of the end
of his career, but it marked the
dissolution of the Carthaginian
Empire. The downfall of Garth
age can be attributed to Hanni-
balls destructive campaign on
Roman provinces, more so than
the deep humiliation her foremost
generals suffered at his hands, be-
cause of their defeats.
Surrounded by foes at home,
the Carthaginians demanded Han
nibal's return to protect his hearth
and home. He, however, had be-
come weary of warfare and lacked
his former enthusiasm. He was
crushingly defeated near Zama by
Scipio, the Roman general who
relentlessly pursued him to Africa.
Hannibal's star went down at
Zama never to rise again. Altho
he succeeded in escaping from

Weak-Lnfym.

Weak is a generic term, and is
opposed to strong: sn1s,m is
species of weak. Weakness may
proceed from various causes,
and may exist at any period of
life. Infirmity is the weakness of
old age. Those who are infirm
are weak; but those who are weak
are not always inirm. We never
hear of intirm children. The term
weak, is applied to animate and
inanimate things. Infirm only to-
human beings. A sick man is too
weak to walk; an old man is too
infirm to stand.

Strong is here the generic term;

A robust man bears continual labor

robust the idea of roughness or

contain. A strong man may be
active, nimble, and graceful. An
excess of muscular development,
together with clumsiness of &C.

the robust man. Plowmen and

equal education like the air we breathe,
should be accessible to all alike"
1T Is tolerably certain that Froebel's
Kindergarten system will be recognized
by aud by as Indispensable to school
life"
Kindergarten songs games and
stories ought to be domesticated at
every fireside that is illuminated by
the presence OF children. Teachers of
our public schools should consider IL
part OF their work to facilitate the In
PRODUCTION OF kindergarten methods In
to the homes Of the people"
These exercises have 9 tendency TO
cultivate the powers Of observation,
memory and self activity"
DIR. Maeser again SAYS: THE COM
mon schools reflect. In the average, bet
ter than anything else, the intellectual
standard of a people. The enlighten-
ment OF the few out of the many Gre
ates merely all intellectual arlstocracy
with all its arrogant presumption and
assumption Of privileges over the rights
of the less favored. A people can rea-
lize the full meaning OF liberty only
when common education Is extended,
so that every child may have a chance
to acquire degree of culture that
shall give his abilities an, even show
among his fellow men
Take heed of the tendency manifest
ing itself among our people, TO over
educate"
Even IN our legislative assemblies
this spirit has made its appearance, In
attempts to carry enactments that
would infringe upon the rights of pri-
mary education to confer benefits upon
higher Institutions OF learning. To
paraphrase Shakespeare we should not
love higher institutions less, but pri-
mary education more. II in our normal
institutions devotion to the real inter-
ests OF the people Is strong enough to
Withstand the temptations to turn pro
fcssors" T. e., graduates who feel them
selves fitted for high positions, and
instead thereof these schools viii bring
their influence to bear upon the Inn
provement and elevation of the schools
of the primary grade, as the first and
foremost consideration. and then follow
UP this course with such higher instruo-
lions as may be called for, then higher
education will he greatly benefited, for
it win have sound foundation to build
upcn and will become ineasurably free
from certain aspIrants to educational
honors whose time and talents would be
better employed in other spheres"

LEGISLATIVE SIDELIGHTS.

H. B. 8S is the title of the proposed
new bounty law. The measure is by
Westphal of Utah. and provides that
the state shall pay for the destruction
OF wild animals as follows: For each
mountain lion or bear, So; for each
coyote, lynx or wildcat, Sl.50 These
amounts are in addition to any amounts
offered by the counties. To procure the
bounty II is necessary to produce the
skin with ears and tall attached. of
the animal killed, together with affi-
davit of applicant that he killed same.
Representative Westphal of Utah
county will introduce a bill into the
house relating to the fish and game
laws of the state, The bill proposes to
put premium on the destruction of the
fish known as carp from the lakes of
the state, especially Utah lake, and
restores permission 10 seine in this lake

said the carp are becoming so numer-
Gus In these waters that boat can
scarcely force Its way through them.
They are OF an uncleanly nature, and
root into the banks and bottom Of the
lake for moss and water vegetation. UNI
IN none of this material remains at
the present time, They stir up the mud
and trout and bass fry cannot live In
the dirty water. Altogether the carp
made to get rid of them. The measure

Oh, month in the year, between Oct. IL
and Nov, 10. and places the amount of
fishing aud hunting license at 81 for
residents OF the state and $40 for non
