New Navy Nurses.

The nineteen young women now taking
instruction at the Naval Medical school,
Washington, for entrance to the new fe-
male nurse corps of the navy, are max
ms splendid progress in their studies.
At the end of six months they will be
graduated and will be competent to take
positions in naval hospitals, hospital end
ambulance ships, or at any special post
of duty TO which they may be assigned
by the surgeon general of the navy Be
fo o taking the course in Washington the
nurses who enter the navy nurse corps
must have been graduated FROM some
recognized hospital framing school hay-
;ng a preparatory couc>a of at least TWO
years duration. 1t NOV therefore he seen
that the graduates of The schOoi for
nurses just established by the navy I'M
der law passed last session will he up-
usually wen fitted FOR their work, and,
in consequence. the SICK ana wounded
who come under their care will probably
fare better than If thCy We're disabled
1t home.
The proposition to assign women
nurses to the navy did not win its way
to official approval AMI legal enactment
without a red hot fight There were
many who opposed it on the ground that
the nurses would be thrown among a
rough class of men and that they
would be subjected to many hardships
as well as insults during the perform
ance of their duty. This argument was
successfully combated by the friends Of
the idea. prominent among whom was
Surgeon General Rixey Of the navy. who
declared that women nurses were better
than men nurses during both war and
peace. The result was an appropriation
for the establishment of the curriculum
in the Naval Medical school. The course
Of instruction of the first class was be-
gun less than a month ago. Miss Esther
Y. Hasson. a graduate of the New Ha-
ven hospital and q nurse in both the
Spanish and Philippine wars, is superin-
tendent of the corps. Many of the gradu.
ates of the first class will he assigned to

Cotton Goods Going Up.-The gov
ernment report on the condition OF
the cotton crop, says a New York dis
patch Of Saturday, has left cotton
goods and cotton yarn merchants no
alternative save to mark up prices
and on Friday the movement upward
began. Tickings were advanced half
cent a yard and notices were given
that bleached sheetings would be ad-
vanced during the coming week.
Brown cottons were marked up ! cent
to IA cent a yard. On Friday after
noon many large commission houses
withdrew their lines temporarily he-
fore revising them.
The cotton yarn market has been
broadening a little, but spinners'
prices were higher than dealers could
secure from buyers, so that trading
was limited. In the month IF June
some large sales Of goods were made
and jobbers will go into the next SEA-
chandise that seems very low priced
in view of the cotton advance. Raw
cotton IS today 80 per cent higher
than it VS. at the opening of the job
bing season in January. Naturally
there is considerable anxiety felt as
to the success of distributors and re-
tailers in securing the higher prices
mills will Low be forced to name.
The country's trade has been broad
ening on textiles Of all kinds, in so far
as it has been reflected here, but a
curious feature has been that while
spot transactions were generally light
with the jobbers, the advance orders
were excellent Complaints against
the new high prices in mems wear are
coming forward but the ordering Of
staple goods for spring has been large.
The knit goods trade was better dur
ing the week, staple hosiery being es-
pecially strong. Many large buyers are
to be in the market next week.

Asserting that a mans home and

The principal subject before the
council meeting which was preliminary
to the opening Of the associations
convention, was care Of delinquents,
referred to as exceptional children"
The Introductory statement In the
discussion Of delinquents was made by
James H. Van Syckle, superintendent
Of schools Of Baltimore, Md. who was
followed by Mr.. McNeill.
Some teaching is so unscientif1c and
consequently so spiritless that 1t would

often make delinquents Of children by
failing to observe the fundamental
things and processes incident to growth
and development. They make children
hate books by forcing them to read be-
fore an interest in reading is aroused.
BY rushing them into arithmetical or
grammatical analysis before their de-
velopment warrants it, they are made
to dislike the subjects. Permanent
aversion to school Is the legitimate re-
suit of putting children at work on
studies they are not mature enough to
apprehend. The mode Of presentation,
however, often counts for as much as
maturity.
Unless the delinquent classes have
the benefits Of the kind Of education
which is adapted to their peculiar
needs" he said. they grow up among
us and recruit the army Of people, who
never fit anywhere. They fill the poor

Mr. William Caldwell Of the Cotton
Belt neighborhood, reports the best
yield Of wheat that has yet come to
the knowledge Of The Enquirer. He
sowed one gallon less than two BUSH
els and threshed out thirty-six bushels
and three pecks. Mr.. Caldwell says
1t was the easiest and cheapest crop
Of wheat that he has ever raised. The
land was poor and the only fertilizer
he used was 80 pounds Of nitrate Of
soda. The seed was plowed in with a
bull tongue, that was all that was done
until the harvest.
Negro Lineman Killed.
Rock Hill special Of July 8, to the
News and Courier: Robert Barron,
colored, known as "Bub Barron, a
faithful lineman, who has been in the
employ of the Water, Light and Power
company, for good many years, was
killed this morning about II o'clock
by coming in contact with a heavily
charged wire. The accident occurred
near Davis's store in the western part
of the city, where the linemen were at
work. Barron, who was at the top OF
the pole, had his strap buckled and
consequently he did not fall to the
ground. Other workmen mounted and
brought him down, after which he
lived for a few minutes only. When
DR.. Crawford reached him he was
dead. His fingers were burned to the
bone and the flesh charred. Barron
leaves a wife and several children.
