On Tuesday, woman named Ellen
Raglan drowned herselfin the Ohio river,

t,xication d She had made three nnsuc
cessful attempts to drown herself the

rescued and carried ashore On the
fourth attempt however, she got into
such deep water that no one felt safe in
going to her relief until it was too late.
She was dragged ont soon after she sunk,
tut all efforts to resuscitate her were
vain. The maiden name of the deceased
is said to have been Ellen Carroll She
stated that she came from Canada On
her right arm we're the letters j. L.,

sack we'll filled with good clothing, and
was comfortably dressed, Coroner Ste

found a verdict of wilful drowning

tbouqht especially deserving of praise,
was The colioauy entitled "VOices Of the

lady appropriately attired and the
various addresses being very well land
distinctly pronounced also, the z" Court
of the Goddess of Liberty" each nation
being represented by o lady bearing the
flag Of her nation and dressed in thena-

peculiarly impressive and beautiful, and
the browning of Switzerland and Amer.
lea as the two nations deserving most
distinction at the hands Of the Goddess
called forth rapturous and well deserved
applause, The gymnastic performances
are also worthy of special note. They
exhibited a degree. of proficiency and
skill which showed that the physical
health of the pupils was no less cared
for in the Seminary than their mental
training-a consideration too often over
looked. grj
Altogether the entertainment was of
such character as to make the audi
ence wish that it might often be repeat
ed, and to make them look forward with
pleasure to future exhibitions of the
same kind. President LOOMS and bis
able faculty of teachers have certainly
performed their duties we'll during the
past term, and We are glad to learn that
the excellent institution they have in
charge is in far more 1ourishiDg c0ndi-
tion than ever before. .---.---
