The New York Board OF education
is seriously considering the putting of
corporal punishment back into the
schools. They will, we believe, do it;
for any sensible man who will think a
moment will know that there are some
children who can be appealed to only
through their feelings. Their feel
ings are often touched only by we'll
directed blows upon tender points Of
their anatomy. We do not think all
children need this, but some do and
the application of this mild stimulant
often produces very wholesome effe cts
upon the whole personality CT the
child. 1t often acts as oil poured
upon troubled waters or. balm on a
chatting wound.

seconds. This would be at about the
rate of half mile per minute. That is
not bad travelling, especially when we
consider the fact that we would need

The fact that the government has

an indication that we do not mean to

fact that Japan does not like the

evident that it is a wise precaution.

states: No such relations exist be-

Almost Willing.

We observe thata large number Of
u exchanges are urging their super
visors to purchase bloodhoundS. This
paper urged a similar thing on the
board of supervisors of this county
about two years ago and the board
made the purchase and they had just
as well bought two Tom cats so far
s results desired were obtained.
Great care was exercised in buying
the dogs and they ware given the very
best attention after they became the
property OF the county but as to trail
ing anything when it was wanted
done, they never did 1t and the county
is no longer caring for them. We
have noted a number Of instances
where "uloodhounds were at C Sc
cured and placed on the trail" and are
almost willing to say that we will
pay 500 to the man that will prove
that any criminal has been successfully
trailed by bloodhounds in Mississippi
with the past twelve months. The
state wants dogs that can follow a
track. We know that bloodhoundS
are said to have done good service DUR
ing the slavery period but tracks nov
either haven't got OdOr enough or
these. SOcalled b~loodhoundS have not
had their sense uf smell we'll cultivat-
ed. 1t may be that the dogs are not
pruperly handled but we a cite
numerous instances where they have
been placed on the tracks of criminals
and no results obtained.

An Oktibeha county negro found a
$50 Confederate bill right handy a few
days ago. He made a SIS purchase
from a peddler who delivered him bis
goods and also gave him back S35 in
Uncle Sans cold cash. The peddler
was perfectly satisfied with his deal
until his banker refused the COnfeder-

negro arrested for passing counterfeit
money. The magistrate, before whom
the negro was tried, liberated him
