WILL TAKE MANUAL
TRAINING COURSE
Prof. w. S. Hiser Goes to
Chicago.

w. Scott Hiser, secretary of the
Richmond Chautauqua, who has tend
cred his resignation, will enter manual
training department of Chicago uni
versity for the summer. The manual
training department of the Richmond
schools has attracted considerable at
tention throughout tho state. The de-
partment of education of Indiana has
received request for some pictures
of manual training work done here.
The state superintendent, f. A. Cot
ton on a recent visit to this depart
ment of the schools, made a personal
request for these photos, and it was
renewed a few days ago by mail.
The pictures have been sent. They
are to be used in the report of the
state superintendent of public instruc-
ton, which goes before the state leg
islature next January and which will
be distributed throughout the state.
w. Scott HiSer started the work in
manual training in Richmond and it
has developed until it attracts as
much if not more attention than any
other department of the annual art ex-
hibit in the Garfield building.
1t is understood that the kinds Of
manual training work carried on in
Richmond is second to none in the
Middle West.
In 1904 the state department of ed
ucation, in its report to the legislature,
used the photographs of manual train
ing in the Richmond schools.
Mr.. Hiser has been connected with
the Richmond schools for fourteen
years, and in every line of work he
has made good. In 1884 the penman-
ship of the schools was so bad that he
was given a chance to popularize the
position of supervisor of penmanship
The work was begun and in seven
years the Richmond writing stood in
the front. In two successive years, in
national penmanship contests. six
Richmond pupils won certificates
awarded by the Penman's Art Journal
of New York city, and through the pu-
pills the supervisor, CIV. S. Hiserl won
two.

book in her lap was a Bible-"was be-
coming nothing to me. and knew then

The origin of chess is shrouded in

in oriental literature as in use fully
200 years before the Christian era
/ From India chess spread into Persia

sthe Arabs took it into Spain and the
rest of western Europe. The game
was in all proba bility invented for the
purpose of illustrating the art of war
The Arab legend upon this point is that
1t was devised for the instruction of a
young despot by his father, a learned
Brahman. TO teach him that a king
notwithstanding his power was depend

Greek historians credit the invention
OF the game to Palamedes, who, they
claim. devised it to beguile the tedium

Advertising for Contracts.

The Penitentiary Board is now ad-
vertising for bids for convict labor for
one year, the bids to be considered by
the board at it's regular monthly meet
ing the first Monday in June. The
Reaves contract expires before that
time. II
The board asks for bids on 200 con-
victs for one years time. The last
Reaves contract was for one year
only. Prior to year ago, however.
the contract was for two years.
A great deal of interest attaches to
the consideration Of bids by the board
as the result of the controversy in
politics over the convict lease system.
During the recent Democratic cam
paign Attorney General W. F. Kirby.
then a candidate for governor, said
in one of his speeches that the board
awarded the convict labor contract at
a price which was considerably over
than could have been secured from
Little Rock parties.

Truth and
Quality

appeal to the Well-Informed in every
walk Of life and are essential to permanent
success and crcditable standing. Accor-
ingly, it is not claimed that Syrup of Figs
and Elixir of SIENNA is the only remedy of
known value, but one Of many reasons
why it is the best Of personal and family
laxatives is the fact that it cleanses,
sweetens and relieves the internal organs
on which it acts without any facilitating
after effects and without having to increase
the quantity from time to time.
1t acts pleasantly and naturally and
truly as a laxative, and its component
parts are known to and approved by
physicians, as it is free from all objection
able substances. To get its beneficial
effects always purchase the genuine
manufactured by the California Fig Syrup
Co., only, and for sale by all leading drug
gists.

They Keep Cool.

Electric fans blowing on blocks of
ice, Come and SILVER"
Such was the announcement of the
meeting of the Sunday Club at the
First Presbyterian Church Sunday af-
ternoon at o'clock, and those who
went expecting relief from the heat of
the day were not disappointed, for the
natural temperature was pulled down
10 45 degrees, and the men who at
first took off their coats, put them on
aagin in hurry.
About ten electric fans of the ordi-
nary Office variety were placed around
the room and in front of each fan was
a pyramid of ice in tub, and the
artificial frigidity was waited to the
audience by force of the electric pro-
pellers. Something like 700 pounds of
ice was used, and it is the intention
to adopt a similar cooling scheme in
the church proper.
