A boat Langnage Lesson*.
From the Chicago Herald.
One of the studies in the lower grades of
tb* public schools is called '’language.”
We larger people who went to school when
HcGoilej'* rea iers and Monteith’s geogra
phies and l'ineo’s grammar! were the stan
dards knew nothing of language. But as a
matter of fact we are the worse for the los?.
Lmguage si taught by the teachers nowa
days stems to include a little cf the things
sv lost, and which would have helped us
•o much if only same one had thought of
inventing them in our yonng days. It is
the wsrnce of grammsr# and contain*, too,
all there is of rhetoric that can appeal to
the mind of a child; there ia the spar to the
imajinstion, the incentive to observation,
and there is what puts all theso :o the test
—composition. Children are taught to write
eassjs at the tiro* of life when pupila of an
«•?!!•? eg* war® plodding in the dnllest of
nlnthai not one ia tea could understand.
The chances are that these little fellows
of lo-dty, in •hori skins or in knickerbock
•n, will not be able to quote the rulee to ns
correctly, but they will know wbat we do
not—iud that Is that a sentence is properly
formed, and that merely by the sound, by
the sense of euphony. They will be better
critics; will be better armored against bad
books snd better able to detect the goou
things in literature than ever were tneir
fathers and their mothers. Oucc a week,
where such a rule is convenient, they are
mads to write something original. Wabave
sihered op a lot of theso exercises, and
rre wesve them into an article, partly be
cause they are of interest to the children of
larger growth, in some cases the lesson
consists of a simple letter written by the
popii to a irieou far away. Souse of iLs
exttcUes are written by pupils with a pict
ure before them. No matter what that pict
ure may be, it is supposed to suggest to the
child some sort of a story, aud whatever
this story is they ate expected to write it
here.
The lint exercise given below is a letter
from a little girl 9 years and 4 months old.
“Chicago, Dec. 12.—Dear Bants Clans:
when Christmas comes I want a nice buggy
with iron wheels, and a doll that can step,
and has slippers oo, too.
’’There is a little girl that live* near me.
Her name is Anna Smith aud I wish you
to give her just the same things that I asked
you for. She has a little lister and brother,
snd you mutt give her little brother a
wszon and a hone, and her little sitter a
doll and buggy. 1 will be very glad to get
i|- I think they will be very glad to gel the
things 1 mid. I think this will be all for
this time. Her number is 212 and sbelivea
ou the same street that 1 do. And now
good-bye, Your friend,
"Hattie Smite.”
0> conne, yon and I can write btlter let-
wn than that, but we couldn't pul the
chrm of childhood in it if we tried to the
•o«i of time. The next ia wrilteu in a fair
to'ind hand by a little second grade girl
lH 1 1 It It anggetled b^a pici
meadow which attracts his attention. The
sequence is maintained. The principals in
his story go direct from the woods to the
lake and to their death. It It sad enough,
but the boy will remember the woods and
the lake and the awimmiog dog, while the
girl recalls chieflv the flowers and the
richnesa of color that appealed to her eye
that summer day.
The next is a story bv a boy of 0, who
also had the assistance of a picture before
him. He has named it "Baby Bertie."
"177 Linden Avenue—Bertie was a blue-
eyed baby, always had a happy face and
liked to play in the leaves, une day lie
went into the orchard to get some appf
for his mother. He took his cart with hi
so as to be able to carry a greater number-
When his cart was full he came back. Oo
the way home he found a nest of egg. Off
goes his hat and the eggs Were deposited in
it. He has broken one egg, and if he isn’t
careful he will break them all.
"Buhl A*M*Terocn,”
Deposited” mu*t have been quite a tri
umph. The next, by a fourth grade girl
of 11, goes somewhat into natural history,
and suggests some of the lessons that care
ful teachers are constantly inculcating;
"The earth worm is the only jointed ani
mal with red blood. Worms me generally
long, round, slimy things; they have 200
rings, and little hooks on each one. The
worm has two little sacks in his body
which contain lime to grind his food, for
he has no teeth. He has a long upper lip
and a short lower one. The birds like to
eat them, so they sit at the worm’s door
and wait for it to come oat. When it does
come out the bird wants to take it home,
but the worm holds tight, and the bird
must pull with all its might. When a baby
worm is born it knows just as mnch as its
mother.”
There is a volume of childish thought
in the last sentence. And there is also a
small volume of information in the hody
of the piece. Did you happen to know that
an earth worm had red blood, and that it
has 100 rings about its body, with a little
hook on each?
A little girl aged 9, a member of the
fiurth grade, writes this letter to here
mother:
“133 Perry Avenue.—Dear Mother: I
have reached grandma’s and they are all
well except Aunt Jennie’s baby, who has
the croup. Kate and I drive the cows to
pasture averv morning. I guess we will
tske off our shoes and stockings and wade

Katie one day, hot node said she might
• tty home during my visit. She is going
<o get a nice big doll for her Christmas
present. Your loving daughter,
"Lottie McIntyre.”
Considering the fact that the letter was
written in the school room, with all its
commonplace surrounding*, that exercise
brings back quite a large and comforting
slice of summer.
The next acd last is from a liitle maid
of eleven years, is anothsr study from a
picture, and is not unlike one which has
gone before:
“My little friend Lilly lives in the coun
try, and has three cow* and a calf. The
cows are named Bessie, Emma and Jess.
Lilly driyee them to pasture every morn
ing. Her lamb always goes with her, and
as they walk along tnrciifh the dewy lane
Lilly gathers bonqnets of pretty pink and

GEORGIA’S CHIEF EXECUTIVE DE
CLINES TO MEET JAY GOULD.
Heine Unable to Approve of the Wall

Atlanta** Ovation#
Atlanta, Feb. 7.—[Special]—Gov-
eruor Northon did not take part in the
Gould celebration. He was invited to
participate, officially, in the entertain
ment, but declined,
Tbo request, it appears, came in the
shape of a telephone message from the
major. The governor replied that be
would take the matter under considera
tion. After thinking over it, he wrote
a note in answer, asking to be excused.
This much seems to be certain.
Rumor add* that ho stated In his re
fusal that he was unable to approve Mr.
Gould’* methods, and declinod on that
account.
An toffort was made tliia afternoon to
obtain a copy of the communication re
ferred to at the cnpitol. Governor
Northen had left the building. Execu
tive BecreUty Harrison said no contid-
eied the letter In the light of private
res|ondence.
ATLANTA’S OVATION.
The Inman-Guuld party reached At-
lauta at noon today, having come over
the East Tennessee tins in thsir special
train from Chattanooga. They were met
by a committee of prominent citizens,
headed by Mayor Hemphill. The ladies
were driven to the Kimball Ho :se, while
Messrs. Gould, Inman, Dillon, Felton
and Thomas were escorted to the Cham
ber of Commerce, where an informal re
ceptton was tendered them. Council
had met in special seision early in the
morning and resolutions of welcomo had
been prepared. These were read and
then a general handshaking followed, in
troductions being made by ex-Uovernor
Bmlock, president of the Chamber of
Commerce, and Mayor Hemphill.
At 1 o’clock the party of ladies and
gentlemen were entertained at lunch at
the Capital City CluU
The afternoon was spent in a drive
al<out the city, and, under the direction
of Pat Calhoun, an inspection of the rail
road properties of tbo Terminal system.
Tonight a reception was tendered the
party by Mr. and Mrs. Hugh T. Inman,
which was tho social event of the season.
The party has derided to leave here at

Professor Wfllet examined his map* and,

Dr. Spencer says this action was taken
by a vote of 3 to 2, instead of unani

Tha Art of Expression.
From tbs New York Examiner.
■ The remark was made by President
[Eliot of Harvard, in a recent public ad
dress that “the higher education haa al
ways made great account of the power of
expression in speech and written language.’'
| The one ailaiuinent of using their native I
language strongly, accurately and persua-l
sively is more, he declares, than rues’, col
li egee cau guarantee to their graduate*, and
is a sufficient reward for the whole cours*
of twetve years spent in liberal study. Ill
needs no argument to prove the soundneis!
lot th r s dictum. The conditions and de-
'"and# of modern life are constantly giving
fft added emphasis. We are finding out
that not onlv to lawyers and ministers and
college professors, bnt to bnsine»s men as
well, the ability to express them*#! ve* with
vigor and precision ia an essential qualifi
cation. But this watterof expression goes
deeper than literary training. The perfec
tion cf the instrument ia vitally impor
tant; the mastery of form it indispensable.
Let it never he forgotten, however,that the
best tools are useless without material t)
work on, and that form which contains no
substance of worth is an ideal soperfluity
for people who deal with serious Interests.
The world of to-day hu small respect and
scanty pise* for writers or talkers who de
serve the withering cvitici’tn of the French
reviewer ou a pretentions but empty essay-
ist: “He says all that be wanu to, but un
happily he has nothing ta say.” Back of
the expression there is ihe thing to be ex-
crested, and also the spirit and motivs
from wnlch ut trance springs. K-kermann
report*, in one of hia “Conversations,” the
following notable saying of Goethe: "The
style of a writer is almost always the faith
ful representation of his mind; th More,
if anyoue wishes to writ* in a dear style,
let him b gia by tusking his tbr.nghts
clear; and if any would write a noble style,!
let him first posse* a noble aonL” The
culture of expression must include there
fore, the t allure of mind and heart.

Atlanta, FeU 9. — [Special | — The
text of Governor Northen’s letter declin
ing to meet Jay Gould, reference to
which was made In yesterday's Tele-
uRAril. has been furnished the press.
It will be found interesting reading:
W. A. Hemphill, City.— My Dear Sir:
It has not been possible for me to meet
you today in conference about the invita
tion you had the kindness to tender Mrs.
Xofthea and n.j.clf tc aid in receiving
the Gould party upon their arrival in tho
city.
I recognize with tho fullest apprecia
tion tho consideration shown mo aa tho
cbiof executive of tho atato, and I beg
leavo to tender you my thanks for tho
compliment. I must be allowed to sav.
however,that ldo nottecognizo Mr. Gould
as visiting the state in any official capa
city, but rather In his own interests with
out regard tathe interest* of Ihe !*>*•■*•
of ths people of the state. 1 may be mis
taken in my measure of the roan, but I
am candid ta saying, that 1 do not think
bis methods as practiced in other sections
where he has had power, would develop
our state oo the line of the public good,
>Vithont in the least criticising the
opinions of others, and thanking you
mo-1 hewruiy for the compiiturul in
tended in th* invitation you so Eindly
tendered me, I must most respectfully
decline.
I'leaae understand that what I say re
fers specially and solely to Mr. Gould,
and not to any other member of hia
party. Truly and sincerely,
W. J. Northern, Governor.
Already the TEUcunarH'ii mention of
the luatier hss had the effect of bring
ing letters to the governor indorsing hia
action. Here ia an entrant from one re-
evived today.
County He bool Commissioner Willis
Newton writes from Marhen:
“Allow an humble constituent to thank
you fur tho course you pursued In de
clining to accept an invitation to tbo
Jay Gould reception. You have hon
ored yourself and our grand old slat# in
the minds of all right thinking people.
Everyone, whether fanners, merchants
or professional man commends your
course in the highest term*.”
It may l>e added that the governor's
course ia indorsed br a large number of
people In Atlanta, who, wiutout firULls
tug other-, seem inclined to look ou the
fuse mat.o over Mr, Gould in Georgia as
’worship of the golden calf.”

Fubllr Sentiment Turning In Favor
of Professor apsucer.
Atlanta, FeK 7.—[Special.]—State
Geologist Spenctr seems finally to hav#
determined on withholding his resigna
tion for th* present and the legislature
will probably be appealed to to aettle the
differences between him and the board.
When the assembly takes hold of the
matter many believe that another effort
will be made to abolisu the geological
deportment. On the other hand it ia
snggeUcd that the law may ha so modi
fied aa to give tba chief geologist the
cboica of his assistant* Members of
the board themselves have been heard to
concur in the opinion that under the
existing act he ia greatly handicapped.
Dr. Bpencer is reported as having tvken
the field today, in obedience to orders
from ths board.
TO BE INVESTIGATED.
A meeting of the geological toard was
held tbia afternoon, Professor Willett's
statement hiving been placed in their
hands, tor tho purpose of considering it.
The meeting I »t*ed but a short lime, and
no action was taken, as it was impossi
ble to find Dr. Spencer. The report that
he has taken the field may not be well
founded. He left btre two or three
nights ago to ennsuit a friend, and may
not have returned. It ia said that he
lisa been confetrmg with a lawyer, and

THE FIGHT IN THE ALLIANCE.
Governor Northen llebnke* the Llv
lnssten-lirovvn-G*ntt Faction.
Atlanta, Feh. 7—[Special]—The
breech in the Alliance between tho Liv
ingston and Southern Alliance Farmer
faction and that branch of tho party
which denounced the paper yesterday
promises to stir up some lively develop
ments. Governor Northen, who has
heretofore been extremely silent on the
subject, declared today that the fight was
evidently on and that he was squrely in
it. The object of his side, he said, would
he to rebuke such usurpation
as that indicated in this tstmk
from an interview with Col Livingston
“We have now properly elected and
ready for an emergency a set of delu-
f ;ates representing each county Alliance
n the state, who alone con convene for
tiie purpose of discussing and concluding
important matters pertaining to the
order, except those over which the execu
tive committee and judicial committee,
in connection with the president, havo
jurisdiction.”
The governor pointed to another part
of the interview, and aaid one further
object of the fight would be to expose
such duplicity os this (quoting from
Editor Gantt’s card): “Our paper is not
the organ of tbo idug-hat or anti-sub-
treasury branch ol the Farmers' Alliance.
We are* battling for the rights of the
wool-hat and the one-gallus boy*, and ou
them we will rely for our support and
our friends.”
Governor Northen next turned his
attention to the criticism, uttered in tho
card, of hia using the executive mansion
for ‘'star chamber” meetings. He said
that when the mansion became too grand
a nines for him to invite Alliancemen to
confer in about matters important to
their welfare, he would be ready to move
out of it As for the meetings not hav
ing been regularly called, the governor
said nobody ever believed it to be an of
ficial conference.
The feeling against Col. Livingston and
Editor Brown In the Alliance has been
quietly gathering volume for along time.
About the time the legislature adjourned
significant hint* were thrown out by an
Influential member or the order, in tho
presence of the Teleoraph correspond
ent, foreshadowing this predent trouble,
even then the uprising had been de

THE JONES-WORD AFFAIR.
The Nlayor of Palestine Submit* Ml*
Version of tho Trouble.
Palestine, Tex., Feb. 5.—Mayor J. J.
Wotd today prepared for publication tho
following statement of tho encounter
between hlmaslf snd tho Rev. Ham Jon®*,
and on account of which lie was subse
quently condemned at a mass meeting of
citizens, who also requested him to re
sign the position of mayor of tlio city.
"1 dtturo that a correct understanding
of the encouutor between myself and
Her. Sam Jones be had, and with that
end in view 1 submit the following state
ment to tho public. During the Urge
and enthusiastic meeting held ut this
place by tho Her. Sam Jones, and on the
last day of tho said meeting, and before
some 0,000 people, ho took occasion to
criticise my official conduct as mayor;
and intimated that 1 was in collusion
with violators of the law, and directly
or indirectly receiving pay from them for
overlooking their offenses. Of this 1 have
no complaint to make, as I believe in the
fullest scrutiny on the part of the publio
into the official conduct of every publio
servant, and have ever been ready to
meet and answer overy charge that may
bo presented against me officiallv. But
on the same occasion Mr. Jones also took
it upon himself to refer ia most insult
ing language to my private lifo and
hauila, ami, loo, Lefoid Lay wife asl lit
tle children and relations snd friends. I
was absent at tho timo at Dallas. Upon
my return I was informed of these mat
ters by parties whose truthfulness I could
not and will not question, and I then de
termined that wherever aud whenever I
and Ham Jones met I should personally
resent tho wrong which 1 considered and
still consider he did me and mine.
"I never saw Ham Jones but twice in
my life—the first timo he preached here,
in November last, and tho morning at
the depot after his lecture here. I called
to him and asked if ho was tho Rev. Hem
Jones. He turned and aaid “Yes.” I
remarked, “My name is Word,” and
struck him across tho face with a light
cane some two or three times. We then
clinched, and he grabbed tho cane out of
my hand and struck mo over tbo bond
some two or three times, bringing
blood from my left ear. His face was
also bloodied. He Is a much larger man
than I. and of undaunted courage and
strength, and, I was informed, had
stated publicly that if anyono did not
like hia style, he was renay to meet them
and always prepared for any emergency
