"Many persons remark to mo that they can
understand cosily how wo mannRO to educate
lie deaf ami dumb iiftoi- mart H made , but
t U getting the Htirt which puzzles thoin.
flioy don't sec how It Is doao. Wo propose
to plvo you n tlttlo lilcu ot how the start Is
tnmlo. "
Prof. \ \ yukolT then proceeded to Illustrate
lv n , class of primary pupils , while the InrRO
iimllciico L'athurcd in the chapel of tbo Insti
tution for the do.if mid dumb , listened at
tentively. They not ordy listened , hut
watched , for there was fully as much for the
in os to c.itch ai for the cars ,
The professor called his auditors attention
: o some facts , readily conceded when stated ,
but not generally thought of at ad. The pu
pils when they come to this Institution know
no Micro of English th.in of Hebrew. They
icihnps communicate with friends by slRns
familiar to those of the home circle , but they
have not oven the advantage of a uniformity
of MKII language , and no knowledge at all of
any written or spoken language. The tlrst
: afk of the teacher Is to glvo the child a
uiowlcdgc of names. The bov , for Instance ,
lias some sign by which no slgnilics his
lint , out it takes much patlcnU ) and
tact 10 got Into his head the Idea th.it "hat"
ns written or printed means the same as the
sign ho has used. Other nouns follow , then
the nupll is le.id into the further revelation
that people , too , have names. It scorns
strange that a ten-year-old boy should not
tiavo any idea that ho hail a name , vet many
a lad came to this s > : hoot in Just that condi
tion , \vholly unconscious of oven that much
of the spoken or written language so glibly
handled by speaking pupils.
After learning names of things and person ?
It Dccnmo nocossarv to learn the names
of actions. Most of the teaching is
by the use of objects. A key is
shown , then the word written on the board
anu the pupil taught to associate the two and
quickly write the word on being shown the
object.
This exposition , illustrated by the hole of
a bright little fellow at the blackboard , gave
the visitors u peep at the mysterious and fas
cinating .system of developing the intellects
of those unfortunates.
The other exercises on the programme ot
this , tholr annual exhibition , wcro likewise
interesting. The pantomimic features were
vury amubltiir , several brief but vividly told
stories and bits of comedy being presented so
clearly by action and without a word sponen
is to bo readily understood oven by those not
at all conversant with the sign language.
John 11 u ! pin , a natural cnmtncdian , pic
tured most comically the sac , fate of a cat
which had been thrown Into the churn by a
monkey during the temporary absence of ttio
housouifc. A nnmberof the youngest pupils
joined in a merry pantomime representing a
school in which the master was over-drowsy.
Two colored bovs , Musters Jones and Jotor ,
made an amusing showing of a melon-sto.d-
ing scene.
Waldo Ilothert , son of Superintendent
Kothmt , anu who is ono of the brightest
pupils in the institution , gave nn amusing
sketch of "spirit photography. " ° aumber of
the other pupils sitting for their pictures ,
the result in each case being an amusing
surprise for both pupils and audience.
Uccitationa and songs of a move scrlo'is
nature wore given in the sign laneuairo by
other pupils with equal effect. Three little
girls recited "Jesus , Lover of My Soul. "
Miss Li/zio Teller gave as u sign
recitation , "Mrs. Lofty and I. " Messrs.
Puller and Jackson very gracefully
rendered the hymn "America. " Mrs. Grace
Gait gave as a sign song "Tho Star Span
gled nannor. "
A Hag drill and a dumb-bell drill excited
much interest. They were rendered with
wonderful precision and with an astonish
ing regard for the rythmic measures of the
inarch , pluycd on the piano , not a note of
which couldbo [ hoard by the paitlcipants ,
who wont-through various mazes of stop and
action with the precision of well trained
soldiers.
Ono of the most ptithotlo and pleasing num
bers on the programme was the recitation of
the Lord's ' pni.vor by little Bertha Teller.
She is ono of the few pupils who can speak
although almost totally doaf.
To those not familiar with the articulation
work , as shown by Mlsa Hamilton and her
class , it was difllcult to rcalUo that the chil
dren who took part could understand what
others said to them siiViply by watching the
motion of their lips , not being able to hear a
word , Still more wonderful did it
seem that they could themselves reply
in words ot the sound of which they had little
tlo conception. Miss Hamilton illustrated
the method of instruction. Whnu the pupils
Imitated successfully the different sounds
given by pigs , roosters , geese , etc. , also
speaking the names ofvarious animals , the
Interest of tho. audience reached n point
where the objective "thrilling" would not bo
far amiss.
1 In connection with the entertainment in
the chapel there were some interesting dis
plays in adjoining rooms. In ono there
was an educational showing , examination
papers , mathematical calculations , etc. , being
placed in rcadlnoss for the inspection of vis
itors.
In another room was the art work done oy
Miss Clement's pupils. Hero wore ciayon-
ings , art paintings , water colors , and some
most beautiful wood carving. The work
charmed nil w'io visited the room.
The parlois looked like a fashionnblo
church fair. All sorts of fancy needle work ,
novel In design and elegant In finish , at
tracted the eyes of the ladles , and the
prices put upon those oltorou for sale were so
moderate as to boar out the assertion of Mrs.
Hothcrt , the matron , that I'm policy is to got
buck only the cost of the material used , so
that the cxponbo of this educational depart
ment might not all fall on the state.
Altogether the visitors had much to enter
tain and delight them. Those who had time
to devote to n walk through the buildings
found kindly guides , and Superintendent
Hothert , as usual , \\iis anxious to have every
nook and corner closely inspected.
Ho and his co-workors nro striving so
earnestly to make this the model
institution of the land , that they nro
over caper to have others vco what is being
accomplished. They certainly have the
rlght'to feel proud of the result of their care
nntt labor.
The management of the Iowa Institution is
peculiar in that it Is n dual ono. The two
heads are Superintendent II. W. Hothert and
Principal 05. L. WyekolT , the latter being In
charge of the intellectual training of the
pupils in the school proper , which is entirely
distinct from the general management
of the Immense household , whoso
physical wants and industrial training
are under the care mid control of Superin
tendent Hothort. In the industrial depart
ment are taught farming , gardening , llor.il
culture , carpentry , cabinet making , wood
carving , tailoring , broom making , baking ,
shoo making , printing , plain sowing , needle
\\ork , dressmaking , household work , iron
ing , family cooking , etc. In all these depart
ments there was a display yesterday which
evidenced how thoroughly practical 1s tbo
training which these pupils are securing.
Supoilntondont Uothort has u family of
about four hundred , for which to provide 1s
no little task.
The educational department embraces culture
turo in language , arithmetic penmanship ,
geography , history , physical geography , civil
government , naturu philosophy , bookkcop-
lap , grammar , batorlo , scripture lemons ,
drawing , painting , artlculutlon , lip reading ,

Fourth Trial of a C clolirntcd Case In
OlHtrlut Court.
The case of the state again it Jonathan
Jones , on the charge ot murder , was en trial
yesterday before Judge Deemor. This suit
hai caused a great deal of attention In Its
day , but It Is now becoming rather hoary
headed , ns this Is the fourth tlmo it has been
tried. It was commenced in 187 , when
Jones was Indicted for the murder of Uavld
Roberts , who lived In the Keels settlement ,
several miles north of Council Bluffs.
At the original trial of the case the defence
was that Roberts had alienated the affections
of Jonos' wife , but Jones was nevertheless
convicted. An appeal was taken to
the supreme court , and the de
cision of the lower court was re
versed. A second trial was had , and again
Jones was found guilty , hut the verdict of
the jury was set aside by tbo court on tech
nical grounds.
The last trial was In 1S87 , before Judge
Ucemcr , and again Jones was found guilty ,
but before ho was sentenced to the peniten
tiary , his attorneys , Messrs. Scott & Scott ,
now of Omaha , interpose. ! a plea of insanity.
The court ordered that the case bo especially
Investigated with this point In vlow , and the
case has boon hanging lira cvor since. The
only point that is now to bo investigated is
the question of the sanity of the defendant ,
and if ho is found to have been sane at the
tlmo the crlnio was committed , ho will bo
sent to the asylum , but If not , ho will bo sen
tenced to the penitentiary.
Jones is represented bv Scett & Scott of
Omaha , and J. .1. Stewart of this city.
County Attorney Organ is assisted by W , A.
Mynster , who lias boon connected with the
case from Its first trial. " "
The only witness on the stand yesterday
was Dr. A. J. Cook , who had tnado an exam
ination of the defendant , and bad conio to
the conclusion that ho was Insane. Ho
stated as bis reason for so thinking that the
man did not seem to bo capable of making n
coherent answer to any question. Ho also
found his temperature to be 10J degrees ,
which ho thought was an evidence that the
man was not all right. The whole day was
taken up with Dr. Cook's testimony and tno
cross examination bv the attorneys for the
state. This morning Drs. Thomas and
Barstow will be put upon the stand.

CniCAOo , Juno 9. Albert Englo , some
times known as Count Schaffnor , appeared In
a police court this morning charged with a
unique criminal procedure. It was iu evi-
dcnco that ho secured keys to a vacant house
in a fashionable quarter of vVabash avenue ,
into which ho enticed young women on rep-
presentations that ho was a merchant from
China and had a lot of valuable silks which
ho was giving away , being unable to dispose.
ot them. Having got his victims Indoors ho
would make indecent proposals to them and
If he met with resistance would flourish a
murderous-looking knife and threaten to cut
thorn In pieces and put thorn In a largo trunk
which ho had in ono of the rooms. Two of
hi" victims broke away and ran ucreamlng to
the noiehoors for protection. Ono of ttiom
subsequently disappeared , but the other was
in court this morning and on her evidence
the prisoner was fined heavily and hold to
await further developments. Englo is n
stylish follow about fortv years of ago. This
Is not his first adventure. A year or two ago
ho was arrested for writing love letters nnl

yards on the other was taken lip this mornIng -
Ing by Judges Tuloy , Collins and Horton sit

motion for an injunction rnado by , cq in plain-
nuts to compel the stoclt yards and transit
company to allow complainants 16 use de
fendants' track for the delivery of live stock
direct to complainants' private yards , which
can bo reached In no ether way. Complain
ants claim that In so far us it owns and uses
tracks the stock yards and the transit com
pany is a common carrier and is obliged to
allow the use of its tracks to any ono who
will pay n reasonable charge therefore. The
object of complainants In having their stock
delivered at their private yards Is to avoid
the payment of the alleged oxcosslvo yardage -
ago charges of the stock yards company.
Defendants claim that their tracks are solely
for their own private use and benefit , that
they are in no sense common carriers and
that they have a right to refuse thq use of
their facilities to persons who are in effect
their rivals in business.

Klllott Murder Trial.
Cot.fMiit'ff , O. , June 9. At the Elliott mur
der trial James A. Ml.'cs , n local attorney ,
xvas the principal witness examined. Ho was
an eye-witness to a portion of the shooting
and confirmed the line of thn prosecution on
one disputed point that Elliott tired several
shots niter ho had gotten behind a woman
passing on the street.
The explosion of a bomb
is not more sudden or unlocked for
than the attack of some malignant
disease which would not occur wcro
the blood in older. To impure
blood * is due a great variety of ills
that make life n burden.
All the year round , you may rely
upon Dr. Pieree's Golden Medical
Discovery to purify the blood and
invigorate the system. It's not like
the sarsaparillas , that are said to be
good for the blood in March , April
and May. The "Discovery" woika
equally well at all times , and in all
cases of blood-taints , or humors , no
matter what their nnme or nature.
It's the cheapest blood-purifier ,
sold through diuggists , because you
only pay for the good you get.
Your money is returned if it
doesn't benefit or cure you.
Can you ask more ?
"Is life worth living ? " "That
depends on the liver. " Dr. Pieree's
Pellets arc the best Liver fills.

Unscrupulous tnntitifucturors of medicines nro olTorlng to supply the retail
druggists with an articla put up in red wrapper , almost Identical in Ronornl np
ponranco , nnd closely asslmlhitod in every tlotnll to Cur tor's Llttlo Llvor Pills.
In this wny they hope to profit by the merit ol Carter's Llttlo Liver PUb , and
pnlm off nn Imitation on tlio unsuspecting sufToror anil purehnsor.
It Is ft source of wonder to honest people , that there are men ready and willing
to perpetrate such frauds.
Lot them beware ; a day of reckoning will surely come ; there are "upright
judges" In the land who will punish such people ,
But the moral of It all Is this : When you ask for Carter's Llttlo Liver Pills ,
insist upon having "C-A-U-T-K-K-.S , ' ' and see that you get thoin.
Tito proprietors of Carter's Llttlo Liver Pills huvo spent hundreds of thous *
ands of dollars to make their vnluo known. True merit always wins with the
people , Carter's Llttlo Liver Pills have won.
