EDUCATORS IN CONVENTION. The National Educational Council and Its Work in Splitting Hairs. Cerreapondence of the Indianapolis Journal. Madison, Wis., July 15. —The National Couneil of Education to-day concluded its ■work for this occasion. This is pronounced to be the most important meeting that it has ever held. As is naturally the case with all men, institutions and organizations of men, some time is consumed in adjusting the members to each other so that the play and interplay of thought and feeling becomes spontaneous and rapid. The questions discussed have been practical ones, and at first the discussions ran off into petty side issues, and in many cases seemed to the spectators to be frivolous and unworthy of strong minds discussing great themes. This tendency, however, was soon checked by the firm hand of President White, who makes an admirable presiding officer, and who has been complimented by a re-election to a second term. The later discussions have gone deep below the surface in search of general principles. The topics under consideration yesterday and to-day were: “Preparatory Schools and Preparation for College,” presented by Dr. Moss, of Indiana, as chairman of the committee, and of “Pedagogics as a Science,” brought out in papers by Prof. Soldan, of St Louis, and Wm. T. Harris, of Massachusetts. The notable speech on the first question was made by President Thompson, of the Rose Polytechnic School, of Terre Haute. Much to the surprise of many, it was a fervid plea for the Latin language as a preparation, not merely for the classical college, but for the industrial and technical school. Dr. Thompson gave it as his profound conviction, derived from fifteen years of careful observation, that for the student of mechanical, mining and civil engineering no preparation possible would give the intellectual grasp and vigor necessary for grappling with these subjects better than a thorough preparatory course in Latin. The elementary study of natural philosophy,—whatever that might mean—of chemistry, or of botany were usually a delusion and a snare; but that of Latin, French And German were invaluable. The thoughts were vigorously expressed and enforced by examples taken from experience, and made a strong and favorable impression. Dr. Thompson was followed in the same line of thought by Regent Peabody, of the Illinois Industrial University. The discussion of Dr. Harris's profound and philosophical paper on “Pedagogics as a Science” was the occasion of some brilliant and successful hair splitting performances. Soldan, of Missouri, and B. Stanley Hall, of Jolms Hopkins , University, took a tilt each with the champion of the day, Dr. W. T. Harris, and were most beautifully and gracefully unhorsed in every encounter. This display of metaphysical jousting was most keenly enjoyed and loudly applauded by the appreciative spectators. Dr. Hall, of Maryland, has, for the past year or two, been engaged, with a number of volunteer assistants, m examining carefully into the exact state of mind of children when they enter school for tho first time. The investigation has thus far been made chiefly in some of the cities of the East, particularly Boston. The children are examined as to their knowledge of the animal kingdom, the vegetable kingdom, their notion of sunrise, sunset, the stars, etc. The object is to find just what and how much home and spontaneous training does for children before they go to school. The outcome may be such as to give teachers more correct notions of how to begin with the children so as to build upon what they already know. Asa sample of the developments of this investigation, it was found that in Boston 23 per cent of the children of school age had never seen a cow, and had no idea whatever of the animal. This work is in its incipiency, and the report by Dr. Hall was only preliminary to something more full and important which will doubtless come out in the future.

Yesterday's Proceedings. To the 'Western Associated Press. Madison, Wis., July 16. —The National Teachers’ Association opened with an address by Hon. Thomas W. Bicknell, president of the association. Following the president's address came department reports, discussing elementary, normal, art, musical and deaf mute instruction, with the meeting of the Froebel Institute of North America and the department superintendents. F. Louis Seldar, of St. Louis, president of the elementary department, referred to elementary instruction as the basis of all higher instruction. Miss Cummings, of the New York Training School, discussed form, color and design. The normal department was addressed by Professor W. H. Pavne, of Ann Arbor, and by Professor Hunter. R. W. Stevenson, superintendent of schools of Columbus, 0., addressed the convention on supervision or city schools. He said: The powers and duties of a superintendent are co-extensive with the board of education. The superintendent of a system of schools should be a man of affairs. In thisconnection, the expenditures for school purposes were fully discussed. But the burden of a superintendent’s work is that of supervising the instruction. He held that it was no part of a superintendent’s duty to become a normal teacher, and to prescribe methods—this led to narrowness and discouraged originality. The individuality and freedom of the teacher should not be interfered with—each should be encouraged to pursue specialties for which he has a natural gift The organization and classification of a system of schools according to a well-arranged course of study was discussed at length. The subjects of examinations and promotions, and the frequency of their occurrence, were considered. The paper closed with the following summary: The range of the powers and duties of a superintendent is widely extended, yet limited. His own good sense is the boundary of his actions. He is a teacher, and at the same time a thorough man of business—a plain, straight-forward man, candid, conciliatory, out-spoken, yet a keeper of his own counsels, and inflexible in his purposes. A man with a big heart, yet oftentimes his actions will appear to the community cruel. A man who could give the fullest and most satisfactory explanation of his conduct, and the most valid reasons for his acts, but he is silent. The teacher’s true friend in her absence; in her presence, often her apparent enemy. As the manager of finance, shrewd, economical and liberal; as the superintendent of instruction, scholarly, judicious, systematic and comprehensive; and as a politician, discreet, active, fearless, and patriotic. Art education was discussed by S. S. Thompson, President of Purdue University, who said: “By drawingwe have reference to representation of form. We mean such a thorough study and mastery of form as will enable one to ex • press his thoughts with the pencil, the brush, or With the chisel in solid materials. “First—Drawing must be so taught as to harmonize with, and to assist In carrying forward, the other lines of study already organized and •yproved by long experience. “Second—Art education, to be successful, must be so systematized and taught as to be a means for the growth and development of the mind. “Third—Drawing must be treated as a part of general education and taught according to systematic pedagogical principles and methods. “To accomplish the above purposes, drawing must be treated as a language, or as a means of expressing thought. Any language should be taught as an art and as a science- The art of a language should be taught first, or rather the soience should be taught through the art To this end, the child must be given ideas and a motive for expressing in drawing which is the language of art “In practice we begin with dots or points, being easier to make than lines, and because by means of them we may express position, direction and distance, the three essentials, of all artistic production. Straight lines, curves, angles, triangles, quadrilaterals, etc., may, in succession, be treated in the same way. “Drawing from copy should generally be from historical examples, wh'oh cultivate the {safe and give an idea of correct design. Dictation drawing, that is the translation of words into tines and figures, is genera’ly underrated. “Memory drawing, invention, clay modeling,

and object drawing must all receive due attention. "All instruction drawing must be founded on geometry, and conventional forms should be taught before natural forms. Instruction in drawing must be comprehensive and not confined to only one kind or method.” Miss Josephine C. Locke, supervisor of drawing, of St. Louis, presented a report on the condition of drawing in the United States, submitting a critical, comprehensive course of study on an improved plan. Approving discussions followed by Prof. Otto Tuchs, of the Maryland Institute, Baltimore; Prof. Woodward, of tho St. Louis training school: Anna T. Kaulfus, qf the Louisville High-school, and others. The discussion in the deaf mute department was participated in by John A. Gillespie and Graham Bell, of Washington, and Prof. Gordon, of the deaf mute college, Washington. A popular paper on the “Conflict of the Ten Ideals” was given by CoL F. W. Parker, of Illinois. The evening session opened with addresses in the Capitol Building and in the Congregational Church. The discussion en "Education at the South” drew a crowded audience. Rev. A. D. Mayo, of Boston, spoke on “The Gospel of Self-help.” Following Dr. Slayo, Major Robert Bingham, of North Carolina, continued the subject with a paper on “Educational Status and Needs of the South.” A paper on “The Educational Outlook in the South” was given by Prof. B. F. Washington, of Tuskeegee, Ala. Albert Salisbury, superintendent, of education for the American Missionary Association, followed with a paper on "The Supplementing of the War.” The subject was further discussed by tho State Superintendent of Georgia, Hon. G, J. Orr, and Professor William H. Crogman, of Georgia. Addresses were made on the World’s Industrial and Cotton Exposition by Hon. John Eaton, United States Commissioner of Education, and Director-general E. A. Burke. COUNTERFEIT COINS. Silver Quarters and Dimes that Are Said To Be Genuine Imitations. Pittsburg Dispatch. New counterfeit silver coins, in denominations of quarters and dimes, are said to be in circulation in large quantities. They are said to be good imitations and hard to detect The pieces are said to bear date 1875. One feature by which the counterfeit may be known is in the number of claws on one foot of the eagle, there being four, while on the genuine there are but three. Avery successful counterfeit of the dime is also reported. It is said to be made of glass mixed with some base metal. Its texture is friable, and it can be pulverized easily. When broken, the pieces resemble glass in everything except color. The particles are said to be of a dull color, and the coin is dated 1855, so as to give the impression that the coin is old. to account for its dull color. The ring is good. Ordinary workers in metal and glass cannot account for the amalgamation of glass and the metal, as glass weighs only one-tenth that of .silver, and no base metals approach the weight of silver. Statistics of Beer Consumption. The Western Brewer, in its latest issue, gives full and complete statistics of the brewing during the revenue year ending May 1 last, showing a net increase of 1,507.402 barrels as compared with the previous year, which is an increase of .69 per cent. The total brew of the twelve months was 18,856 ; 826 barrels. The Brewer claims that the showing is an astonishing one, for the reasons that the season was a cold due, the business of the country was not up to its usual standard, and it was also a season of unsual agitation of the temperance question. Six States show a falling off in their brew—viz., lowa, 11,389 barrels; Rhode Island, 7,602; Texas, 399; South Carolina, 260; North Carolina, 3, and Arizona, 346. All the other States show an increase, including Kansas, where the brew was increased by 3,297 barrels, notwithstanding the prohibition movement. The greatest percentage of increase was in New Hampshire—24.4l. During the year two new ale breweries have been established in Alaska. The sales this year, as compared with 1875, were 125 per cent, greater, and, besides, every large city in the country increased its sales. The following table gives the total output for tho revenue years given: Years. Barrels. I Years. Barrels. 1880 12,800,900! 1883 17,349.424 1881 14,125,466 j 1884. 18,856,826 1882 16,616,3641 ’ A Vexatious Problem Solved. Chicago News. The attention of railway corporations is called to the gentlemen who did the carpenter and joiner work on the Democratic platform. It is believed if these gentlemen could be induced to turn their attention to the subject they could devise a way to make trains pass each other on the same track. *

Tr the Editor of the Indianapolis Jonr'a’." lam a veteran temperance man, have been in every temperance organization from the Washingtonians up to the present time, and I am in for prohibition when the right time comes, and I believe the plank in the Republican State platform favoring a constitutional convention covers the temperance question fully. I find the Democratic party is overjoyed in prospect of a prohibition ticket. Beware, my Republican friends; that is just what our enemies want. Let the voice of warning be sounded all over the State between this and the 24th. Hamilton Earnest.

COME. GENTLEMEN! You have for years BLACKLINED and UNDERVALUED PURE, WHOLESOME and BETTER BAKING POWDERS than your own—the “Royal.” By blacklines, alleged “Government Chemists” who do not exist, and under the garb of “absolutely pure” you have forced into unsuspecting families a powder which contains the active drug AMMONIA. Eminent physicians and chemists condemn its use in articles of daily food. You can not longer evade the issue, AMMONIA. The public will compel you to defend its use. DO NOT TAKE OUR WORD FOR IT. Every housekeeper can prove the truth of our statements by placing a can of the “Royal,” top down, on a hot stove until heated, then remove the cover and smell “AMMONIA.” This test will show that the “Royal” contains AMMONIA; that Dr. Price’s Cream Baking Powder does not contain Ammonia. The strength of our powder can be proven by the consumer’s reliable test, THE TEST OF THE OVEN. In my opinion "DR. PRICE'S CREAM BAKING POWPER" IS SUPERIOR to the Royal Baking Powder ” in Every Respect R. OGDEN DOREMUS, M. D., LL.
