Some eighteen or twenty teachers of Union township, at the institute held on Saturday, drew up the follwwicg resolutions, as an expression of their opinion regarding some proposed changes of the Bchool law which the State Superintenddent favors:
RESOLVED, That we, the teachers of Montgomery county in institute assembled, do regard the proposed school legislation as recommended by the State Superintendent of Public Instruction as harmful to the best interests of the public schools and as tendjng to centralization of power which CUD not fail to produce baneful resultp. The present system of teachers' examination is satisfactory and has led to marked progress in scholarship by teachers.
We regard a worthy county supertandent quite as competent to matte an honest and fair examination of teachers as any corps of selected clerks could be.
We, however, favor the isauiag of professional I'cunses for merit only and that such licenses be issued only upon an examination and not becaus.e the applicant has studied at any particular school.
RESOLVED, further, that a copy of these resolutious be sent to our representatives in the General Assembly and that due influence be used to prohibit the passing of the proposed bill.

-•_! Grim Bhrewiineii Sir Wemyss Rekl tells a story re-, dolent of a grim shrewdness character* istlc of canny Novocastrians: "Ther« waa a worthy, long since forgotten, in my time, who was a prototype of Rogue Riderhood, In "Our Mutual Friend.' He was known as Cuckoo Jack, and he lived upon the Tyne in a well-patched old boat, picking up any trifle that came his way from a derelict to a corpse. One day an elderly and most estimable quaker of Newcastle, in stepping from a river steamboat to the quay, slipped and feU Into the stream. Cuckoo Jack was at hand with, his boat and quickly rescued the luckless Friend and landed him, dripping ota the quay. The good man drew half a crown from his pocket and solemnly handed it to his preserver. Jack eyed the coin for a moment with lack-luster gaze, spat upon it solemnly 'for luck,' and, having placed it safely In his pocket, said in a matter-of-fac* tone to the 6oaked quaker: 'Man, ah'd hev gotten 5 shillin' for takin' ye to the dead house.' "—Weekly Telegraph
A Horsehoe Without Nails. The latest thing is a horseshoe with, nails. Tha principle is that instead of nails being driven in the hoof— which so often leads to "pricking" and lameness—the shoe is fixed to the outside of the hoof by means of little clips. These clips have small teeth, which are driven into the side of the hoof. By an ingenious wedge arrangement, as the wear of the shoe goes on the more and more secure it becomes on the hoof. Further, in shoeing a horse, the village forge need not be called into service. The Bhoe can be put on anywhere and by any one who is at all handy. Several horse-keeping firms in England have tested the nailless shoe, and the authorities of a German army corps have had it on trial for a year, and now make it an Uem in their *Mres.

Lafayette is not a "wide open town" but it is the next thing to it.

The fault is not with the policemen. It is higher.—Lafayette Times.
OBSTINACY OP THR LLAMA
The Mule Is Vacillating Compared with This Animal. The boy called "U-pa!" to the UamaB, lifting his linger as If to point them up the trail. Ordinarily, remarks a writer in St. Nicholas, the animals would have obeyed, but the aggressive manner of Barton had aroused their obstinacy and they did not budge. The boy put his shoulder to the ribs of one and heaved hard but the brute stood its ground. "Well, it is to wait!" said he and ran about his path, gathering up very small pebbles until the shabby hat was full. Then he sat down on a bowlder that jutted from the bank, settling himself as if for a lcng^rest. Then he threw a mild and measured pebble at each llama. They turned their heads a little and wrinkled their disagreeable no^ea.
He waited for some time and then pitched two more pebbles—which had the same effect. So he sat, slowly and mechanically tossing his harmless missiles upon the dense hair of his charges. Evidently he was in no hurry and the two travelers, impatient as they were, had too much wisdom or experience to try to push him. They sat quietly in their saddles, watching the droll scene It was very ridiculous to need deliverance from two stupid beasts and to get it from such an owlish little tatterdemalion. An hour crawled by, and the stones in Ramon's hat were running low. Suddenly the brown llama turned with a snort of disgust and stole oft up the trail The gray one hesitated a moment, stlorted—and. followed. "That way they get tired, sirs," said the boy, emptying his hat arid pulling it down upon his thatch of black hair, "i'd take a good club to them!" growled
Barton, who had great confidence in the Saxon way of forcing things. "No, the boy is quite right. It is another case where you must not try to be smarter than nature. The llama is the stubborneat brute alive a mule is vacillating compared to him. If you put a pound too much on his load he will lie down and you might beat him to death, or build a fire beside him, but he would not get up. Nobody but a Peruvian Indian can do anything with a Peruvian camel and Ramon has just shown us the proper tactics. Hurt the animal and he only grows more sullen but the pebbles merely tease him until he can bear It no longer. And really he repays patience when he behaves well, for he is the only animal that can work effectively at these terrific altitudes, where horses and mules are practically useless. But adelante (forward!)," the professor concluded.

An Improvement Which It Is Claimed Will Develop High Speed.. A hew bicycle Improvement makes the cyclist join hands with the wind, says the New York Journal. The combination,' it is claimed, develops exceedingly high speed. The inventor, M. Demange of Commercy, France, declares that by his plan the cyclist may ride at a speed of from twelve to fifteen miles an hour with no exertion at all, except that required in guiding the machine. The contrivance is in form a sort of a turbine arrangement, something like a gourd hollowed out, cut in "gores," and the "gores" turned a lit tie on their axes. This turbine is placed on dual rods, vertically attached to the forward wheel of the bicycle. A bar projects from the center of the handle bars outward, and to this Is attached the top of the turbine. The turbine revolves on its axis and catches enough wind to give the forward wheel an added impetus. No matter from what direction the wind blows the turbine catches it, and by attachment with the hub of the front whfeel communicates some of the force of the wind to the wheel. The turbine practically neutralizes the effect of a beam wind
The twisting of the turbine in its rotary motion works on the rods that attach it to a ratchet wheel, which revolves about the hub of the front wheel These rods work up and down like the piston rods of an engine, and in that way accelerate the motion in great dp gree. This Invention is a marked de parture from those designed to give motion to a bicycle without the rider's aid. Gasoline, electricity and pe troleum have all been incorporated in the different ideas which have taken shape as bicycle impellers. The sail ing bicycle Is also an adaptation of the same idea, and has been fairly successful when under the control of skillful rider who is also a master of the art of handling a sail. On the western prairies where the wind blows strong and steady the sail on a bicycle has been utilized with fine results.
As Boys See Them.
"I don't see the use of puttin' Mamie in abort pants," said Mamie's brother scornfully the third day after she had appeared in her new bloomers. "Willie!" exclaimed Mamie, sharply. "Well, I don't," retorted Willie. "Now you've got 'em you can't climb a tree an' you know you can't, so what's the use of puttin' up a bluff that you're a boy?"—Omaha Bee.

The Election Trials.
The trials
of
men affefited in three
cases id this county for buying of voters at the election last November, have resulted favorably to the defendents. This week the trial of Wm. Smith against Charles Rountreefrom Ripley township, was heard in the circuit court, and Rountree was acquitted. The other case of Ladow against Lewis and Cook, from Darlington, was dismissed without trial at the plaintiff's cost. We are unable to state just why these election cases terminate this way. If the plaintiffs had no cause in the first place* why bhould their attorneys bring the suit? is the question. If there was any actual bribery or intimidation at the election, of these men, why were not the facts brought out? vVe would be gratified to see any man, republican or democrat, guilty of corruption at elections, sent over the road for a term of years, but thus far the court tas made futile efforts in that direction, if any of this was done.
