THE GAZETTE'S ILLUSTRA- ., TIONS. ,V.,

The illustrations in this issue of the GA. ZKTTE are up to the usual standard of cexllence and among them will bejfound something of interest for all classes of people. /They include "The Minneapolis Exposition," •"A Submarine Torpedo Boat," '-The New

Parliament Buildings to be Erected in Toranto, Canada," James Blaine, of Maine," "A Mexican Art Treasure," '"Uncle Sam's Navy," ••The Late Ann S. Stephens." "The Man Who Swam the Rapids," "Talks About Bunny Italy," 'How Women Bathe," "An Old Virginia Town." and Beveral miscellaneous ones.

ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATION. Preparatious for the colored people's celebration of the emancipation proclamation anniversary are progressing finely. The street procession will be led by the Brazil cornet band and will march through the principal streets. At the Fair Grounds there will be speaking. In the evening a memorial meeting will be held at Dowling Hall. This great event in the history of the colored race—the greatest that ever has or ever can occur—ought to be celebrated every year. It is' to them all that the 4th of July is to us and a thou,«md times more. Life without liberty is not worth having. To the slaves, then, the emancipation proclamation was a second birth. And when they were born again the life they had before was given some value. No man of modern times in this country has left so sweet a memory as that of the martyr president whose good fortune it was to be the official spokesman of that great era which struck the shackles from many million slaves. To the negro race the event is one of transcendent importance. It is scarcely less so to the whites, or rather more, for when injustice is afoot it is better to be the sufferer tbau the wrong doer.

AN EXPLOSION OF BYNUMITE

Harmony,

Sie

and Harmony with a big

H, let it be remembered, has at last been restored in the Democratic ranks at Indianapolis and iu the 7th congressional district. Saturday afternoon the congressional delegates in that district met for the second time to hold a convention. Ex-Senator McDonald called the convention to order and acted as temporary chairman. He announced that his rulings would be in accordance with the strictest interpretation of parliamentary rules and without reference to whom they might help or hurt. His first decision was that in permanently organizing the convention delegates who had a prima facie right to vote would be allowed to vote, and second that when it came to voting on the question of contested delegations none of those whose seats were contested should be permitted to vote. The first decision seemed to be in favor of the anti-Bynumites, as it admitted fourteen of their delegates and only two of the Bynum delegates out of the sixteen contestants. The second decision seemed to be in favor of the Bynumites as it would prevent fourteen opponents from voting when it came to settling the contested cases. But it. was now shown that all this amounted to nothing as Bynum had enough votes to carry everything even if all the contested cases were decided against, him. The Bynumites tried to nominate ex-Senator McDonald for permanent chairman but he positively declined and then Adolph Soidensticker was nominated by them and Charles

Offut by the antis. Sei-

densticker was elected by 60votes to 56% for his opponent. A committee on credentials was appointed and after deliberating three hours they admitted fourteen of the Bynum delegates and two of the other side. Finally when a ballot ^as taken, Bynum received 73}^ votes to 41% for Judge Turpie. who was taken up at the last moment instead of Wm. B. Myers, but, so far as is known, without

the judge's consent. The nomination was made

unanimous,

Bynum made a

speech forgiving his enemies and asking them to forgive him and harmonious speeches were made by John W. Kern and State Senator Bailey, who had heen his liveliest opponents, and evybody seemed happy except young Wm. E. English and the Republicans, who realize that in the explosion of Bynumite they will be blown skyward.

A WASHINGTON special to the New York San gives what purports to be an interview with Senator Voorhees. Some of the statements do not sound at all like our townsman, but they are curious withal and will be read with interest The dispatoh is as follows: "Senator Voorhees, who has just come to this city from Indiana, made a point-blank denial today of the report that he is in tram ing for the vice-presidency. He declares that the idea is all nonsense. In a conversation on this and kindred subjects he said: "The idea of my surrendering the United States senatorship, a position that fills the full measure of my ambition, for the vicepresidency! It is an office worthy of »ny & merican citizen, but in which I could be of no service to a friend, whether he applied for the position of watchman or minister abroad. No intelligent friend would aak me to take the office. I wouldn't have it. Mr. Hendricks never wanted the vice-preBidenoy, but his friends at Chicago permitted the nomination to be forced upon him. for the reason that he as at the time out of public life. The history of my political career is peculiar. 1 have never had a conflct in my own party. Every nomination I have had from the first has been by acclamation. A fight with Democrats is something for which no office could recompense me. I was defeated for Congress once. Next morning when my wife came to call me she saia mildly: 'We are invited to a wedding today, but I suppose you would rather not go.' Looking around the rqpm my eyes fell upon the tweed suit, arrayed in whion I had made the campaign. 'Wife,'I replied, 'will you

lease take these clothes away give them to rag man, bury them, burn them, anything, only let me never see them again. Bring me a dress suit Yes we will go to the wedding.' I shall never forget the look of astonished delight whioh my wife gave me. With but one exception I never experienced larger enjoyment at a wedding."

Now whose wedding was it our Senator enjoyed next to his' own?

MR. ERNEST MBYZKEK, a prominent young colored man of this oity, is out in an interview this morning in which he claims that the Republicans are not fairly treating the -colored brother in the matter of spoils. Mr. Mayzeek nays: "We shall, cease to enrich other men and be paupers all our Jives. We demand some of the spoils we fight for. We want some of the offices that fall to us by virtue of our fidelity to the party." Notwithstanding the fact that the colored voters give substantial help to the Republicans of this county there is not a colored man on the county ticket. The colored brother is beginning to open his eyes to the treatment he is receiving at the hands of a party whose interest in him is only perceptible on election day.

THE wisdom of the nomination inade by the recent representative Democratic county convention is now becoming daily more and more apparent. Scores of Republicans not only in the city but in all parts of the county will vote for many of the nominees. It must be admitted that in many of these cases this determination has come from a dissatisfaction with the workings of the Republican oounty convention, which has presented neither a popular, a well-balanced nor a strong ticket to its party. Such men as Armstrong, Cox, Weeks, Stout and Allen, among others, area tower of strength to their party, and the other candidates are deserving and in every way competent for the duties of the places for which they have been nominated. The duty of all good citizens is to elect the best men to office, There never was a brighter prospect for tfce success of the Democratic county ticket than at the present time. The Republican city bosses of the Filbeck stripe have made a tioket that does not stand well with the masses of the party, while the Democrats, very happily, have done the reverse of this and put forth a popular and excellent set of men.

AMONG the saddest incidents of the failure of Gen. B. F. Butler to be elected President two years ago was the retirement of the GAZETTE'S old friend, Morton C. Rankin, from the political arena. He seemed to realize that Gen. Butler was in eclipse and, like the ground hog, who comes out on the day dedicated to him, looks around, admires" his shadow and then goes baok into his bole, Mr. Rankin retired. But that is not all. He pulled the hole in after him and plugged it up. Politics lias been a dreary business without his cheery, hopeful, chirpy, frisky presence, But he is back again in the old arena and the GAZETTE is mighty glad of it. Everything is all wrong once more, as it generally is when Mr. Rankin is around, but it is his especial mission to right it. Now, as in Hamlet's time, the world, this tough old quaking world of ours, is out of joint. Hamlet bemoaned the fact in his day and called it a cursed spite that ever he was born to set it right. But Hamlet was a weak fellow. Likely as not he had the rheumatism. At any rate he lacked the splendid nerve aud gall of our Morton C. which leads him to regard the world's being out of joint as a "soft snap" for him whose special privilege it is, as it was the original object of his creation, to set it right. The beauty of this arrange-

ment is that it relieves the rest of us from all responsibility. Mr. Rankin has his shoulder at the wheel once more and now the earth has "got to get up and git," give him air and lee-room and plenty of rope and. patient listeners and he will pull us through the crisis.

THERE may be some doubt as to the legal delegates from this county to the Greenback convention at Rockville yesterday, but one thing is definitely settled. That point is that the GAZETTE is the great and only organ of the Greenback party in this district. The GAZETTE was the only paper that had a representative at the Greenback gathering and it is the only paper to ublish a full acoount of its proceedings.' For all of these things the Greenbackers yesterday expressed themselves as duly thankful, but that is not needed, for the GAZETTE'S endeavor is to furnish news for Democrats, Republicans, Greenbackers and Prohibitionists alike. Our Greenback brethren did not exactly dwell together in harmony yesterday, but the temper of the crowd was anything but favorable to the Hon. James T. Johnston, of'Parke county, as the said honorable gentleman confidently expected it would be. In fact, if anything may be said at all the chances of Mr. Johnston's Democratic competitor were very materially advanced by the proceedings of the convention. Some of the speeches scoring Mr. Johnston would make good Democratic campaign documents.

On the other hand the platform of tbe Democratic party, which I have the honor to represent, not only deals with the serious question of mitigating the evils of intemperance but also declares the position of that party upon the various questions of national concern which will be presented for the consideration of the next congress.

It will of course be my duty to present fully all the issues tendered by the Democratic platform in each of the several counties and townships of the district.

To do this will Necessarily consume all of tbe short space of time between this and the election, and leave me no opportunity to engage in a special joint discussion of the prohibition question.

Hoping you will appreciate the circumstances which compel me to decline your kind invitation, I remain with great respect yours truly,

About sixty friends and relatives assembled to consume the bountiful repast and remind Mrs. Dunn that they were commemorating her 51st birthday. Sam was up town until a late hour, "and as lie came and drew nigh to the house he heard music and danoing." His surprise can be imagined, for he went into the house and ate for three hours, then asked: When does this happen again?" Mrs. Dunn was the recipient or many nice presents. 3

The friends fihd relatives of Miss Clara Gibson surprised her by assembling in a goodly number to remind Miss Clara of her fifteenth birthday. A jolly good time was had until a late hour when the company retired wishing. Miss Clara many such other birthdays.

~jj

The first exercise was a lesson on bank disoount by W. W. Byers. He explained the distinguishing features of bank discount, the difference between borrowing of individuals and borrowing of banks and explained also "days to run' and other terms used. Also gave a number of problems to the teachers on the above subject.

Natural history, by Prof. Jenkins followed: "Among the many objects in which a teacher may arouse an interest said he, "are the spiders, flies, ants and butterflies. An interesting question might be: What is the natural history of the fly? Where do they come from? The pupils who observe and give results have gained great mental power." Ht recommended the teachers making collections and gave an illustration of preparing a butterfly and a cabbage butterfly, a very practical question, so the Professor says, for these insignificant, miserable things have made cabbage 15 cents a head. These can be preserved. If the parents object, let the teacher recollect that he is to please the more intelligent portion of, his patrons, not the grumblers.

The next lesson was on "The Theory of the School" by Chas. E. McNeeley. "Tbefirst question" said he, "is 'what is the subject of education?' The true subject is tbe mind. In one sense everything is mind, that is the manifestation of thought. But whose minds? The mind of each pupil is the subjeot of education. But if each mind is the subject of education, how many pupils should the teacher have? Probably between twenty and thirty. How do we obtain a knowledge of mind? In three ways, that is, the books on mind or pscychology the study of the pupils' minds study of the teaoher's own mind.

Messrs. John Donuldson and Albert Pounds and Mies Nannie M. Hunter were appointed committee to devise a plan to raise funds for the employment of more teachers.

,, This Morning. -The county institute convened promptly at 9 o'clock this morning with Samuel Duvall, of thePrairieton school in the chair. The devotional exercises were conducted by M. D. Avery, of the Training sohool of this city

ARITHMETIC

The first exercise presented this morning was an exercise in arithmetic by Miss Cox. After having made a brief review of yesterday's work, Miss Cox proceeded to deal more fully with the idea of fractions, taking some ad' vanced steps with the children still Tiaing tbe objects, saying that the children in the sixth grade, even needed to use objects, if for no other reason, than for reoreation. Examples in th% various operations with fractional numbers were then placed on the board and pupils were required: 1. To select objects from the table, 2. To use those in making problems to explain work. 3. Topla»e written words on the board, hw4. To make a practical, original problem from same work.

During the lesson, the pupils were required to criticise their own work, and led to rely entirely upon themselves, for their work. By taking this method Miss Cox wished to show that the children were made stronger in their work by being led to see the real fraction instead of its representation, and thus take eaoh step intelligently. We see from thia that if a child forgets the processes as multiplying the numerator and dividing the denominator he will refer to the objects, and recall the processes,

Prof. Jenkins continued his discussion on geography, showing in this leisson more of how the soil of the oounty is formed and the action of water on this formation. He explains that in addition to the grinding process of formation spoken of in yesterday's lessson, soil is also formed by the chemical decomposition of rooks that the character of the soil depends on the kind of rock decomposed that chemical decomposition oi rock is simply dissolving out some parts of the rocks and allowing the remainder to crumble into dust that the principal decomposers are carbonic acid and acids formed by the decomposition of iron pyrites and that the action of water on the formation of soil is such that it holds in solution these decomposing elements and saturating the rocks, this brings them in contact with the particles to be decomposed, and that it erodes, transports, and deposits these fine particles which form the soil of our bottom lands.

The methods of representation by modeling and maps was discussed by Miss Cora Hill. Miss Hill would have the following points presented by having the children mould the continents, first in contour and afterward placing on this plain surface the relief forms, and by taking the children on imaginary journeys in different directions from their home regions: 1. Position.

ActuaL "i"? Relative. Distance from. Direction. Size. Surface.

(a) (b) 2.

4. 5 (a) (b)

Highlands. Lowlands.

js+C. .ViS?:*'

By presenting the subject in this way Miss Hill considers that besides fixing these points more clearly ia the minds of the pupils, it furnishes an enjoyable employment for the 'child, which will create in him an interest in the work that can be obtained in no other way, and which is so essential in the work.

Thd next lesson was a continuation of physiology by Prof. Jenkins. In this ieeson Prof. JenkiDS explains what is meant by conservation of energy—that no force or energy can be destroyed or oreated. One form of energy may be changed into another form, but none is lost or gained in the conversion. He explained the necessity, importance, and use of each of the different systems of the body, as the muscular, nervous, special sense, etc.

Notes.

The way the charming young ladies crowS round SupL Wiley is enough to make the younger men green with envy

One of Miss Cox's very 'bright pupils made such a brilliant recitation, that Prof. Byers, doubtless with the laudable intention of further displaying the child's very apparent ability, attacked of her statements, and was gratified to find her fully able to defend her position, and to find himself decidedly worsted in the contest.

Among other distinguished visitors at the institute today, the GAZETTE was pleased to see our venerable friend Jno. E. Woodruff who has long been connected with the school interests of Vigo county, both as teacher and official. It gratifies us to know that as time silvers his locks with the frosts of age his interest in the cause increases. ons 11

From force of habit, many persons in the room assume qn attitude of deferential attention and a look of supreme interest the moment Prof. Byers risss to talk, and one can glanoe around aud at onoe select those who have been under his excellent training in the High school.

Is it because Prof. Jenkins is so small that he has Buch child-like abandon in his lectures? He so entirely forgets his own existence in the interest of his subject, that he carries his audience along with him* until they scarcely know whether they are looking at Prof. Jenkins or at the fox which he is so vividly describing.

Township trustees are rare commodities at this session. Is it because they do not need the instruction of the institute?

Why do so many of the teachers whisper during the exercises? Posey C. Boyll, trustee of Linton township, was present today.

W. A. Bell, of the Sohool Journal, was present a little while,

ENROLLED—THE SECOND DAY.

The Teachers' Institute convened promptly at 9 o'clock this A. M.

Tbe

devotional exercises were conducted by Rev. Smith, of the Christian church. This was followed by a lesson in Arithmetic by Miss Margaret Cox, of the Training school, with a class of pupils.

She proposed to teach the idea of a fraction by objects, suoh as an apple, circle, peach, etc., showing the half, fourth, and other parts.

The pupils were given several problems and then taught to express the fractions on the board.

Next, a lesson on Geography, by Prof. O. P. Jenkins. In one of his characteristic talks he urges on the teachers, especially the younger teachers, the importance of keeping notes.

Instructors should tench: (1) Distance and direction. We frequently neglect to the actual mile. Experience in traveling demonstrates the fact that many people do not have a definite conception of distances with which they are well acquainted. (2) The geographical elements. Study the actual object where possible, that is the real hill, valley, river, etc. (3) Formation of Soils. How is the soil of Vigo country formed? We have two general kinds the Wabash valley, or the bottoms, and the uplands. The Wabash valley extending from the bluffs on the east to those on the west. A sectional drawing was made showing the formation of the soils of this county. The soil is ground rock. This was done by the aotion of the glaciers, giving what is called a "drift" soil.

The next exercise was a talk on reading by J. B. Wisely. He explained the purpose of reading as follows:

To give pleasure. The importance of reading, as the gateway to information on other subjects.

The great faults of teaching begins, he said, with the primary teacher, who often fails to associate the idea with the word, written and printed.

He proposed this method of study of advanced classes: The lessons as they come in the book tbe grouping under narrative, descriptive, expositional the grouping under the various authors found. Mr. Wisely prefers the latter. Before studying the selection the author should be studied as follows: (1) Physically considered, i. e., the height, constitution, features, expression, hair, etc. (2) Mentally considered t. e., intellect, sensibility, will, etc. (3) Where id he live. (4) When did he live? ,, (5) Ancestry. (6) Inheritance. (7) Education. (8) Purpose in life. (9) Parts of his life.

Q0) Effects of his life. He illustrated by the life and character of Washington Irving.

Following Mr. Wisely there was a lesson on "Physiology" by Prof. O. P. Jenkins. He spoke of the conditions of life, that is the physical existence, and illustrated the various kinds of levers, explaining the uses of the bones as levers. The use of the cells, as the osseous cells to form bones and the relation of the connective tissue to it and others were also treated. He urged the importance of observing the real thing, as the bones, muscles, etc., of a cat, dog or chicken. No manikin, however costly, can supply the place of an animal formed by divine wisdom. ..

Smith made a statement to the effect that he left the city with $160 of his own money without paying his boarding house woman $12 tbat he owed her. Judge Mack told Sir ith he would send him to the penitentiary for two years for stealing the pocket-book and if the law allowed him he would send him for five years for cutting on his board bill that he thought a man having the tnoney and who would cheat a woman cut of her board bill was a worse criminal morally than the person who stole double the amount from those able to lose it.
