Attendant Charged With Mur-
dering Frank Elgin Arrested
at Topeka.
James W. Seaver wanted on the
charge of murdering Frank Elgin, an
inmate of the territorial insane asylum
at Norman, who died Sunday, has
been arrested and is being held at
Topeka. Gov. Ferguson received
word to this effect from the authori-
ties at Topeka yesterday and a requi-
sition will probably be issued today.
H. Tillman, on trial for the murder of
N. G. Gonzales, editor of the Colum-
bia State, returned a verdict this
morning of not guilty. The jury an-
nounced at 10:45 o’clock that a ver-
dict had been agreed upon.
The jury was out about 20 hours
before returning a verdict. The de-
fendant shook hands with the judge
and members of the jury and left the
court room accompanied by his friends
and counsel. There was great uncer-
tainty when court convened today as
to whether or not a verdict could be
reached.

In this, the last paper that will be
devoted to the subject of reading, I
wish tr speak of the subject in a gen-
eral way and. dwell upon the work
, above the primary first grade.
In the beginning I am anxious to
impress the idea of the great impor-
tance of thoroughness in all of the
work of the reading class. No part of
the child’s education is quite so im-
portant as this; and I fear no part of
it, perhaps, gets less thought and at-
tehtion, on the part of the ordinary
teacher, than this. The fuel that the
, child is now acquiring a vocabulary
; for use in reading his problems in his
arithmetic, in reading his geography,
and history, and other subjects as
well, makes it imperative and abso-
lutely essential that every word
brought to his notice be thoroughly
learned. This means that the words
shall be studied, over and over, till
they are recognized at sight, wherever
seen. And not only is this true, but
the child must be able to tell the mean-
, ing of the word to that extent that he
can use It correctly in sentences of his
own construction. This kind of work
requires patience on the part of the
teacher, but it is the only kind that
pays in the end. This way will inter-
est the child in what he is doing, be-
cause he will understand what appears
in his lessons. Like “children of an
older growth, ” he has not much use
for something he cannot comprehend.
In the beginning reading was detined
as “getting and giving thought.”
| Then there never.can be reading where
- the child fails to understand the words
| he is repeating. In the first grade of
the school the child was taught his
| words at sight and knew their mean-
1 ing before he was required to use
j them ana he was not taught a word
until its immediate use was required,
j This using of the word fixed its mean-
I ing and form, with later repetitions,
in the child's mind. It was true teach-

> ing because it was effective. And this
! plan of learning words should be used
I from the lirst day the child enters the
primary school until he has finished
his university course.
The ordinary child* revels in the
stories found in his readers if he can
only know what they are about. The
things that prevent him understanding
them are the new words that appear
in the lesson and the old words not
properly learned. It is the duty of the
teacher to see to it that eveiy word
can be spelled and correctly used in a
sentence made by the pupil before oral
reading is attempted. In most cases
it would be a saving of time for the
teacher to tell the meaning of most of
the new words: and yet enough words
should be given to the pupils’for their
search to teach them the use of the
dictionary and to implant the habit
of going to it for the meaning of words
they do not know. The same cause
that prevents the child being interested
in his reading lessons will prevent |
him being interested in his geogruphy
lesson, or his history lesson or any i
other lesson he is called upon to pre-1
pare. And the same cause, the under-
standing of the meaning of words, j
that makes one interesting will make
them all interesting. Interest is the
foundation of every effort of the child
either in school or out of it.
It is believed that the following plan j
will bring about the results mentioned I
above:
1st. The teacher shall place on the)
blackboard all of the difficult words i
in the succeeding lesson to be used as !
a spelling lesson previous to being I
used in the reading lesson.
2d. The meaning of the words shall
be learned sufficiently well that the
child can use them correctly in sen-
tences of his own making.
3d. The. story of the lesson shall be I
so well learned that even the dullest
pupil can tell it in his own words.
4th. The lesson shall be read in
class.
5th. It shall be used as a language
Jesson.
This plan makes apparent progress
slow at the beginning, but it makes it
rapid at the close.
The plan just outlined for the read-1
ing lesson should be used for the I
teaching of primary geography, his- j
torv and phvsiology; and divisions!
one and two should be used in all in- •
struction throughout the school work, j
I have tried to emphasize the import- j
ance of thoroughness in teaching
reading, knowing that real progress, j
and proper inflection, modulation and I
accent depend on the child getting the I
thought of the words he names. To
spend his time in pronouncing words l
he does not comprehend is not only a
waste of time but it dulls interest and I
makes the child dislike that which in
itself would delight him and make his I
task a pleasant one.
