Sch'oo'l, ACra. Carrie Adttums of this ci'ty and ProiesiWr tcoivii.e wf tiL.s c.ty. Tihe session y^isierda-y morning was opened with song and a short ad droits by Ohe Rev. Mr. VVlnuman enf I'he Centra. Otmatjkn ChU'iVh. Uhe tlrst speaker on tihe ipnogiraimime was Professor Yoder. The speaker did not n|ake an extendtM taJk, his ofbjqet being to tell the teach ens what he woui'J tiai'k albput at another t.ime. Hia future talks, 'he said, vwu.ld bo on pedagogy, child study and possibly meliiWods. He olosed with a few questions w'hJcih he said he w'ould have answered at some ot'her tiime. Ainiong the questions were: "Will a y'O'U'ng bird be able to fly if it is kfipt frcm fliyJng for t'nree mion'tihs? Wcmid bees continue to store up honey if fa-ken to a warm country rwnhere there is no winder? Hf a bafoy ©hlo-uld never see a person stand wou »cl IT ever be ab-Ie to walk?"

SCHOOL HISTORY REVISION.

Changes Mmrte In the Account of the Civil War—Alterations Not Yet Made. The office otf tfie sutperintenden't of piub-li-c instrucition has received a revised co\py of the Indiana school ifylstory of the civil war. about wihidh there nave been mlany conferences beftiween tihe school authorities. the pwtriiishers and 4 co-niknittee appoinited by tihe Grand Army deiparument otf Indiana. A reiprecsemative on. Uinn & Co.. puM.sbejs, 1 was exploited Saturday, says the Inid.'an'aijKklas .News, t'o confer wiV'h t'he state superintendent and Superintendent Goss ot fhe «ity schools, who wiais one of the Qc/nnrntttee whioh dratDted the changes suggesited. In the aibsence oif Superintendent Geetiiig. wtoo .s visiting aounty ins-u'uutes. Deipui.y CoUon reiprejsenits hiis cltiiiae in the conference wiitih the piilbliishers.

The pu/bllshers pr-eipared a ootpy qf the Work with suiah Changes as were asked pasted on the pages, a,nd w.fch proof sheets containing the biographiiQal and descriptive m'atter inserted as addenda in tihebuck of tihe book. Bujt the now book just raceived frioim the publishers does not flo'itaw the oorrected copy, and leaves out en't.rely the bJogiiaph-icai and battle articles in t'he back of t'he (book, but instead insents t'he same nuimiber of pages of reference fo the war of the reivolution, wihi.cto was not asked for. Until -the agemt of G-inn & Co. arrives it is accepted thlat t:his book Was sent by some misuake of shipment, being meanit or stoma other s^-ate. "A't any raite" Superintendent Goss said, "the book will not be accepted un'tU this correction is made as agreed upon." The biographies wh'iiclh are TacX. ing are those -otf Grant, Kanooak, Rosecnans, Howard, Lo'gan and Reynolds T,he descriptions of the baittles oi Murfreesboro and Missionary Ridge are those lacking in the nerw edition.

Other changes ^demanded and some tha)t were promised .have not been made. The expression in the description otf one baittie which says: 'Hooker had twice as many men, (but was badly beaten." wias not omitted as askdcl for, but in a footnote the nutmlber engaged in the tuattle Is given. Another suggestion t!o -cWange the Language so as not to reflect ujpon certain acts cxf strategy by GeinerUl Hooker was not adopted. On page 307, in stoting the nutaber of Union troops engaged in a certain battle, the neiw edition has it '80,000,'" while tihe old had fhe numJber •90.000." Tih-ere is no ch&mga in tihe language depicting the rise of Carpet-Wag rule ,-though it :s said that fhis section in the book gave the conference more troulble t.ha« most otf the others. There is a4so n'o change in tthe langiu&ge otf the section relating to 'hvlhtat the war settled" except to insert, referring to General Lee, t'he words, "he was In fhe wrong." The first four lines whioh it agreed in oonference Should be amifteid stlH' appear in the new edition.

Tihe author also clings tx his metaphor of the 'hiuroain body in eonneotl'on with the unfon of t'he body otf states. The ofbjetftion to it'he argument that tihe Union was preserved because it needed all the startes and oouJd not l-ose one member without losing its perfect government was raisefd ,by the sahooa men, who held thtait it was not «apaioaWe to the point to be made.

Th« paragraipfa setting forth t'he cotmjarative sufferings of t'he North and South Was been ohampeid somewihat, and it T\as said will be accejptBdble now. The expression, referring to tihe Union troops in a battle "wJth fortces under Jackson, that "they run for their lives," has been modified so es to nve«t t'he objection of the Grand Anmy men that the tone of the parasraflh was not friendly to the Union side. Where the ooniferenoe suggested that t'he wording, in one paragraph ehouJd be "The Soutfh eomterded t-Wat the Union w«s now broken up," fhe edition Was it, 'ibeJleved the UnJon was mow broken vg." This takes tihe place erf a sentence stating tj4reorty t3iat *lthe Uhlon wias now broken up."

GENERAL AMERICAN FINANCES.

Returned Traveler's Observations On the £ffect of Cslng Silver Only. Ohlartas T. Mannintg of Mkjtlaga^pa, Nicaragua, passed tfhrongli oie city last night, on his way from iNew York to* San Framcisco. says Che Indianapolis News. Mr. Mta.n.ning hias been in the Central American states for a nuaniber of years, and is acquainted wfth the financial donditions of those countries. He went there origlnaLy as an engineer on the Panama danafl. bult aiftenward went into the'feoffee business. He says that the finances otf uhe Central Aanerioan states sire .n a dtplorlaible condition, and ha attributes it, to the fact tihat silver Is the onl|y money -n ciitour^tion there. When he first went to that dountry there Was a limited amount of &cnd in cinru^ktlon and more in reserve. Then the silver money went at par.

Since then, however, Uhe g«ofrd has been withdrawn fnam aB of Chose countries, leav.ng nothing ibut si-liver, and boj&y rt jakes from tiwo to tw» and & hajf times &s nnjcJh inbney to bory gooda as it did seven or eight years ago. Mr. iCtmaiug cave an illustration to prove his point, lie said fhfc/t when he first went dawn there a lalborer getting 89 cents a day could buy a slhlrt amid a pair otf duck or drilling taonisers for

t?wo

daryv* work, or

$L iKtomr the Ha/borers get the same amlonmlt of money for tJheir work. EO cents a dBy, but it .takes frt»n four to six days, for them, to earn enough to busy a shirt and jpaj- of trousers.
