sirable, for, without this, interesting expert
ments may be lost through drought, and
children may be greatly discouraged by the
future of their efforts.
Reference had been made to the depre-
dations caused by thieves. This, while re-
grettable, might be made to have it's useful
side. When children themselves experience
ed the disappointments and evils resulting
from acts of bad citizenship it enabled teach
ers to speak with more effect concerning
matters of morality of this kind, and scho-
lars learned to see that these constituted
real tangible sins aud not only matters Of
abstract morality.
DR.. Watts strongly advocated teaching
relating to Agricultural objects on the
ground that it enabled the teachers to deal
with tangible objects AMI incidents OF every
day NE and the children to grasp and ap-
pfe"lnt2 the real practical 81 ring OF the
facts brought before then. Such teaching
stood III striking contrast to some OF the
more abstract teaching which necessarily oc-
cupied a place in all schools, and so af ,rded
valuable mental relief. It encouraged the
chi !ren to think and to take n rational in
teree; II things relating to their everyday
Life, q "a afforded an opportunity for star tinG
t:&,&3 OK thought and education which would
be continued long after the immediate
school work had ceased. Such teaching
might and should exercise n profound inlu-
ence on the lives OF sch liars, and tend to
make them better citizens.

AGRICULTURAL INSTRUCTION IN
ELEMENTARY SCHOOLS.
(Speech by II. Watts, Esq. d. Sc, f. /. O.
(Antig"a Ch~UrchmaH.)

The following is the substance of a forcib!e
and most helpful speech given by DR.. watts
ut Il meeting during Synod of the Bishop
and Clergy in the Bishops School Room,
The speech, quite impronptu, followed and
was based on u discussion which took place
between the Clergy about the difficulties and
encouragement of Agricultural teaching in
their schools, and is printed at the request
of the Bishop and by the kind permission OF
DR.. Watts.
At the outset, Dr.. Watts expressed salts
faction that the difficulties had been first OF
I'LL pointed out as concerning one Presidency
and that evidence of satisfactory working IN
other places had followed Immediately. All
the evidence to en- together would appear to
point to a solution Of the difficulty. 1t oc-
cured to DIR. Watts that q great deal OF
difficulty arose from too much stress being
Ibid upon Ayr llture .nd too l'ttle upon
teaching. What one wanted was to teach
general principles which would appeal to
and broaden the minds Of children, and not
merely to draw attention t. the drudgery
of agricultural operations. One wanted
children to be in q position to appreciate the
Fundamental facts underlying the growth ana
development of the crops amongst Whlcn
they worked and on which they lived, and
to know something of the soil, the plants,
the animals, and other tangible objects by
which they were surrounded.
The garden therefore becomes the teach
e,' laboratory, in which he can permit mn
dren TO elucidate facts for themselves-1acts
which must have m educational even more
than an agricultural bearing. In these gar
dens, children may conduct small expert
ments, and may acquire useful Information
about the best kinds of vegetables, fooo
crops, and the like.
DIR. Watts was reminded about DR.. mo
mass remarks in the discussion that had first
taken place. of the successful manner IN
which cotton had been grown as an object
lesson at st. Georges School, Nevis.
This Cotton had been cultivated md reap
ed in a systematic manner. Samples had
been exhibited at the Agricultural Show ana
had gained a second prize in open competl-
tion.
This small crop had been baled. shipped

Guils and CLANS.

The discussion continues between
those who think that all the acts Of
the lower animals are satisfactorily
explained by the hypothesis Of inner
tied instinct and those who hold that
there is an element of intelligence, if
not of reasoning, in these things. W..
L. Finley, in a work on American
birds, mentions an observation Of his
which may perhaps be explained either
way, but which in any case is interest
ing. A gull seized upon clam and,
rising to a height of about fifteen feet,
allowed it to fall upon hard ground.
The clam kept it's mouth shut. Again
the gull rose with it to the same height
and dropped it once more, with the
same result. This operation was re-
peated fifteen times, when at last the
shock had the desired effect, the shell
was opened, and the gull enjoyed its
dainty contents

A Monster of Learninu.

The famous Cardinal Mezzofanti
knew an amazing number of languages
and dialects. Perhaps he is best known
to the modern English reader from the
eulogy to be found in one of Byron's
memoranda, published by Moore.

company. especially your foreigner,
whom l never could abide. l don't re-
member man among them whom I
ever wished to see twice, except per-
haps MeZzofanti, who is a monster of
learning, the Briareus of parts of
speech, walking polyglot and, more,
who ought to have existed at the time
of the tower of Babel as universal in
terpreter. He is indeed marvel-un-
assuming also. | tried him in all the

A Race With the Sun.

An English magazine says that if an
aerial machine were capable Of travel
ing at any rate up to 1000 miles an
hour a traveller in it, starting west
ward from London at speed Of 600
miles an hour, would arrest the prog
ress of time. If he started at 10 a. M,
it would always be to him 10 a. m.
Should be find his unending day mo-
nOtonous he could reverse his direc-
ton and get quick succession Of short
days and nights of some six hours
duration, but he could regulate the
length by the speed Of his machine.
Suppose he Travelled from London one
night at 10 o'clock westward at a
speed Of 1000 miles per hour. He
would soon experience the sensation
Of seeing the sun rising in the west
where it had set short time before.

The Bachelors Excuses.

At a wedding breakfast the bach
elors were called upon to give their
reasons for remaining single. The fol-
lowing were among the reasons given:
Il am like the frog in the fable who,
though he loved the water, would not
jump into the well because he could
not jump out again"
II am too selfish and honest enough
to admit it,
II prefer, on the one hand, liberty,
refreshing sleep, the opera. midnight
suppers, quiet seclusion, dreams, eli
gars, bank account and club to, on
the other hand, disturbed rest, cold
meat. baby linen, soothing strip, rock
ing horses, bread pudding and empty
pockets
II have twin brother, and we have
never had a secret from one another.
He is married"

finstad, Republican Candidate, Pioneer
of Northern Idaho

J. G. Finstad, the Republican candi-
date for county commissioner from the
Second district of Bonner county, Idaho,
is one of the old timers in this section,
having been a resident of Kootenai and
Bonner county since 1891, when he came
to the Priest River valley and settled on
a.homestead with his family.
Mr.. Flnstad is so years old, native
of Wisconsin. and has always been a
staunch Republican, having been twice
elected justice of the peace in the Priest
River precinct, and two years ago was
elected to the state legislature from
Kootenai county, and gave every assist
ance to S. D. Taylor, of Boomers Ferry,
in pushing through the county division
and bridge bills in which the citizens of
this county were interested.
Mr.. Finstad is a progressive farmer,
devoting his energy to the improvement
of the orchards of this section, end con-
ducts on his farm one mile from Priest
River the Home Nurseries.
In addition to being nurseryman
Mr.. Finstad is much interested in good
roads, and has been every since he set
tied in this county. He has also been
an enthusiastic worker for better schools
in this county and has just now COM
pleted the erection of two-room school
building in his district.
Mr.. Finstad has raised a family of
nine children, two of the eldest sons
having Just arrived home from a three
years service in the 18th infantry, sta
toned at Matanzas, Cuba, the eldest
having been promoted to sergeant dur
ing his service.
MIR. Finstad has reputatiod for hon
esty, and it can be said without fear of
contradiction that when Mr.. Finstad is
elected that he will give the county an
honest administration of affairs in con-
nection with his Office as county com
missioner.

Met a Horrible Death

Saturday morning about 10 o'clock
Jack Kane, man who has been in this
vicinity for several years, was discov-
cred lying unconscious in a cess pool on
the property of the Eagle Mill Co., south
of the Great Northern tracks. He was
naturally in terribly filthy condition,
and died within an hour and half after
being taken out, without recovering
consciousness. The body was taken to
Miller's undertaking prrlors' where it
is still held, while Mr.. Miller IS endeav-
oring to get into communication with
relatives in the east. 1t is thought he
came from the vicinity of Council Bluffs,
Iowa, but up to this time no responses
have been received to the kilograms
sent to various places where he had been
living.
Kane was about 60 years Old He had
been working in mines and logging
camps in this vicinity for some time.
When last seen at about 10 o'clock Fri
day evening he was sober, and there is
no way of telling how long he had been
in the cesspool. No money was found
on his clothes and watch he had worn
was missing, which causes some of his
friends to believe that he may have met
with foul play and been thrown in.

Noise.

Noise, at first cultivated in this land
by the Indians, has reached its climax
in the college yell. It is used at po-
litical conventions, at christenings and
at women's clubs. No monument was
necessary for the man who first in
vented nois@. His work lives after
him.
Noise is used by cities, which have
the first call for it. They split it up
into as many sounds as possible and
divide it among all.
Noise varies in its volume and in
tensity, from embryonic and immature
>sawmill to a baby crying in the night.
