ATHENS. Dec. 12.--Once more war is raging. Greeks and Turkey put an end to their temporary peace yesterdr y and the district of Janina became the scene of battle. The Greek force had continued to advance further into the province when the Turkish army re- ceived orders to advance to hold them back. As the two forces were rather close when the order was received fighting soon afterwards took place and was proceeding when the last ac- count was received.
 Janina is close to Greece itself and has been the object of the Greek at tack since the beginning of the war. In the same province the Greeks were repulsed in the last war.
 The probable result of the battle cannot yet be told as fighting had only been between the advance posts when the dispatches were sent here. The general engagement was eSn""'~ . to follow at once.

Beach Gives Bond.

Aiken, April 11.-This morning bail
was arranged for Frederick o. Beach,
against whom a warrant is now out
standing, charging him with cutting
his wife's throat. Mr.. Thomas Hitch
cock, the prominent millionaire who
has been making his home in Aiken for
many winters past, is the bondsman,
and the sum is $1,000. Beach is now
in Paris, and the fixing of his bond IN
his absence is the result of number
of cablegrams between Beach and his
attorney here, in which he named the
firm of Henderson as his attorneys
in fact, and they signed his name in his
absence

schools is prepared for the university,
or chronological school. Agricultural
courses are given, sometimes in the
university, at other times in special
schools. There are also schools OF
mining, forestry, etc. The university
usually contains the four faculties:
Theology, law, medicine and philoso-
ply
All employers of boys under l8
years Of age are required by law to
permit these boys to attend "contln-
uation school," where they are taught
German, drawing and mathematics.
Backward children are given special
attention in the "help schools" while
the frail and nervous ones are taken
to a forest" or "out-door' school.
Careful provision is made for all
classes Of children.
The chief excellencies of this system
are (D thoroughness, (2) fine dlscl-
p1ine, (3) compulsory school attend
ance for seven or eight years, (4) reli-
gious training, (5) the inculcation of
true patriotism, and co vocational
training" By vocational training is
meant the special preparation of each
youth for the particular calling for
which he is best fitted, physically,
mentally, and morally, and in which he
can best serve the state.
1t is defective in that it produces
machine-like men, who fail to become
strong-minded and self-conscious, who
are lacking in resourcefulness and
adaptability 1t also disregards play
with the result that the pupils become
often dull plodders.
AS stated by former minister OF
education in Prussia the aim of the
German school system is to promote
patriotism, to teach religion and NOR
atty, and to, prepare the German youth
for practical life. 1t succeeds admir-
ably, in part, at least.

In Behalf of the Veteran.

Editor The Herald and News: The
events of the past week, when the un-
yelling of a monument to women Of
the Confederacy occurred, awakened
train of memory that was sad and
depressing. Where are the old sur
vivors of the four years of bloody
strife? Many are alive, but are they
lost to memory? 1t was meet and
proper that they should have been
bodv-guard of honor on that occasion.
And are they remembered at the bal
lot box, when a little Office paying a
little money is in sight, some SLICK
duck with tricks that are. dark and
ways that are mean pushes the arm
less. legless old veteran aside and
evades the law of God to work by the
sweat of his brow. No self respecting
man will strike an old soldier, but is
if not as shameful to shove him when
a pitiful little position would give him
daily bread, and with a bitterness OF
soul they feel that all they endured
for those who now enjoy the fruits of
their sacrifice is forgotten. A good
dinner once a yea is a good thing to
BE sure. but a. square meal every day
is test, especially if earned by self
ennrort Ne matter if as humble as
