Superintendent Easton and Public School Principals Dlsewsa Knmber ef InteresUsMT Questions of Local Edoes- ttonal Work. Yesterday morning, for the first time since the reoptelng of the pubUc schools, Superintendent Easton had the pleasure of meeting in a body tbe principals of the public" acboola, Th meeting took place in the assembly hall of the Boys' High School and was largely attended.

It was a ery Important mi inasmuch as it related to the cbaagea which have been made ia the curriculum, a fall list of which hs-e already been publlahed la the Mr. Easton. In caning the meeting to order, stated that it afforded nlm great pleasure to again meet the principals face to face after tbe long vacation, and regretted that the unfortunate accident which confined him to bis room for some days after the reopening of the. session be uld have Interfered with the pre-loue arrangement made for a much earlier He then took op the changes in the curriculum. wMch were discvased at some length seriatim.

There will be two drawing lessons a week of thirty minutes each and two writing leaauna. Teacheri in the first primary grades will use no 4lank books. Tbe leseans will also be thirty minutes each. Mitchell's Primary oeograpny will ce aisconunnea in the primary grades, being taken up ln the fourth arradea. Mr.

Easton recommended that more time tie devoted tn arithmetic, and also that the tables be studied, thoroughly In tbe lower grades. Text books will be begun ln the third grade in arithmetic, the! Intermediate being used. In the first and second grades teachers are requested to- prorlde tnemserres witn a text book on entnmeuc. White's Arithmetic being recommended. Tbe examinations will be in February, as usual, and the questions given wilf not be from the text book.

The monthly tests will be continued aa usual. The question as to whether the spelling book atonld be abolished ln tne schools or used in only certain or. tne grades occupied a great deal of lime. Mr. Kaston was decidedly in favor of tbe spelling book, quoting numerous authorities on educa tion woo are oetermtnea mat it anouia stay, and especially the superii tecdent of the Kansas city schools, where there are 1600 pupils la the high schools, and where splendid results are obtained.

At this point a gentleman teacher remarked that in Kansas the parochial scbxtls were not ss well sttesded as the public schools, while ln New Orleans they greatly militated against tbe success of the public schools. Mr. Easton answered tbat tbe public schools could not possir-iy seat another pupil, ana it was therefore a good thing for Sew Orleans that the parochial schools are here. Tbe dis cussion in regard to the spelling doos waxea warmer, some teachers claiming that selected words from the reading lessons were all tbat the pupil needed, especially In tbe higher arrades. Others were in favor of aboil shine it from the lower grades, and using It only in the seventh and eights, rnd others again declared that it was best to begin the spelling book ln the elgbtn grade, tising seiectea words from tbe readers up to tbat time.

Miss Marlon Brown thought tbat there were manv words that might be called useless as far as tbe pupus were concernea, masmucn as thev were oousea to learn to speu mem. ana were never called upon to use them. For Instance, said Mian Brown, the word "Itcny- oaourns." Mr. said mat as namre sxaoies were being introduced tne worn --ncnyosourua'" wnnld used autte often and explained. Easton thought that perhaps the teach ers msde too mucn a urum wora ot roe speu-log book, becar.se they knew tbat tbe superintendent was going to have an examination, and select the words through fear that he would select a word that the pupil bad not studied.

There was too much of tbe drum drilling, and that was tbe cause for com plaint. "That Is exactly tne answered a efcnra of teachers. "We all want our pupils to stand well in the examinations, and as we don't know what words yon are going to se-loet. it is necessary to give them a thorough drilling ln the speUlng Several prominent teacnera ner apoae ia favor of discarding tbe book, as was being done In many leading northern schorl's. "What will you substitute for the spelling book?" asked Mr.

Easton. Again a chorus of voices answered: "Selected words from the text books." "And yet," said Mr. Easton, "the old bine back spelling book of Webster helped to make many a acnoiar. The teachers thought that the Webster spelling book wss too hard for young chil dren. At ler.gth.

on xne serge stion ot airs. Hamilton, the question was put to a vote as to bow many principals were la favor of the spelling book ss a text book In all the grades bnt tbe first, and the vote stood ISO tor, this method to 13 against. Mr. Easton said that he would report the action to tbe committee on curriculum, and recommended that, the teachers compare oa umaiar whether better work can be done with or without the speller. They must either keep the spelling dook or ins teacner must make her owa speller.

In regard to the phrase take manners and morals" out of tbe curriculum. Mr. Eaatoa explained that it did not mean that this should be done literally, ss manners end moral- were the most Important part of ed.i- vation, inasmuch aa the training up of good citizens oepenaea upon mow trainiEg. it simply meant mat Instructions oa this point should not form part of any special hour, but the teacher should lose no opportunity of in-miMtinr a love of country, patriotism, cour ses and truth in tne hearts of ber pupils. 19 rVVMM-.

"I am of the opinion that one of the greatest outrages ever perpetrated on the people of Kentucky was done when the Bryan advocates committed those Indignities against the person of Secretary Carlisle," said Captain E. T. 8 pence at the Orunewald Hotel. "The thing was not so much of an attack upon the secretary's person as It wss against the administration which he represents. "It marked a seditious spirit, and one which, hss hitherto been unknown, ln the history of the country.

"The actftms of Mr. Bryan, personally, have been good. I am a Democrat and a free silver man. I believe ln his policy, and I believe ln him as master of those questions which come nearest to tbe heart ot this great nation. I shall cast my vote, to swell his majority on election day.

These are not representative Democrat of Kentucky. The old famed courage of the chivalrous state would never stoop to littleness like that- The men of large parts and massive, mighty intellect would never belittle the dignity of their birth, and cltlxenajhlp go far.

"The rabble, following the spirit of restless and uncertain agitation, are the ones, end their day with Kentucky is nearly done, for It would not be healthy to repeat the disgraceful hoodlnmism at another, gathering like the one at which the secretary of the treasury was speaking. for one, cling to my Bryan and Sewall platform, and for one, will lend a hand to uphold tbfe dignity of Kentucky's name ly suppressing with violence, if necessary, the unlswfnl and shameful assault tipon an officer of the United States government. "I do not sdmlre Mr. Carlisle, neither do I believe him to be tbe man of thought that people believe him. Above all, I eay that It is not Kentucky's wsy to sheme the memory of the noble men who made her great.

Pinkerton, seated In the rotunda of the St. Charles Hotel, scored some of the New Orleans newspapers yesterday for their attack upon Chief Caster. "The whole thing" amounts to simply this: The young man who was arrested went back to Chicago ot his own free will. "He left a letter with me to that effect, and said that he was better satisfied to go home and make the best of a bad case. He was tired of biding.

As you see. I am here. I am not worr.ed over any possible action- ln the matter, and have done nothing to infringe upon law ot courtesy. "As far as the chief is concerned, that Is where I think tbe whole attack an outrage. I did not call upon the chief.

I got Into town toe late to do so, and he didn't Know mat cnere was anyinmg going on. How could he? "He is perfectly Innocent of everything that savora of neglect, and I regard the attacks upon him la the press' as outrages. "I hsve told the chief that whatever friendship there was between him and me should not stand ln the way of his doing his duty, if there wss any inXringment of the law in what I had done. My own men told me that the party I was looking for was here, and that he had said he was willing to go back." Mr. Pinkerton talked about the general conditions of crime in the country during the political excitement going on.

He aald that there had been no increass In anything. except the pickpocket business, which had started out flourishingly. "The thing got bad that we were employed by the central Democratic committee to 'clean the fellows out. That la where the story originated tbat Mr. Bryan had a bodyguard.

The fact was that we sent men along with nls party whose specialty was the knowledge of al' classes of criminals. Their duty was to phice themselves in communication with the police departments of each town and point out the pickpockets snd hare them arrested. "They have been doing good work. The pickpockets were so bad thst several times Mr. Bryan pointed them out from tho platform and had them locked up.
