eat. Iieoause of the long ride on horse
back, or rather, mule back, the other
sick with a slight chill, induced by ex
cessive exertion during the day. Sup

we all took a hand in an old-fashior.."-d

The work of the Assembly, this
year, has not been so complete as
last, because of the absence of sev
eral of the noted lecturers and
specialists, who were expected to
bo with us. Miss E. M. Coe, the
celebrated Kindergartner. of New
York, gave ns many excellent lec
tures on primary teaching, and lier
private and social talks to the
teacners were highly enjoyable and
edifying to all that beard them. A
lecture on "How to Teach History,"

and with the hundreds of special acts
which base been passed granting pen- ,
-i. .ns in casts where, for my part, I am 1
willing to confess that sympathy rather .
than judgment has often led to the dis
covery of a relati tin between injury or
death and military- service. 1 am con
strained by a sense of public duty to
interpose against establishing a principle
and setting a precedent which must re- .

of indemnifying those who suffered in
