Alice, now more resembling carnatlon
than lily, amazement predominating in
her mind, still clung to her fathers arm,
until Mr.. Ambrose took her hand, saying
with his accustomed ease,
"Miss Alice, your father and / have ex-
changed places to-day. He has bought
nv son Robert to his home once more,
and consider 1T my privilege to give
away the BRIDE"
A general laugh followed this little sal

his Christmas gift. 1t was difficult to tell
which of the two faces looked happier

Jennie and Gertrude had left the room

The awkwardness, which, now that he had
made his Introductory and concillatory
speech, was creeping over Mr.. Sutherland,
was thus dissipated and good feeling rap
idly gained ground that evening.
Mr.. Sutherland quite won the hearts of
the juveniles by his agility at blind mans

he had never before seen Joseph Suther-

to Jennie-awe will have the Gloria for a

Pope Couuty Teachers institute.

ia
The meetings of the Pope County Teachers
Institute on December 2sth, 29th, sOth and
3lsL ls6s, were ia every way all that could
80 desired. Tho attendance of teachers was
quite large Quite II respectable number of
school officers and parents also attended dur
ing the meetings.
The first day was given to organizing, and
lectures on arithmetic by messrs. Newcomb
and Wycoh which were well illustrated on
the black board, and the best plans Of instruct
ing children In the same.
A lecture, upon the benefits resulting from
an education, by VIM. =. Sloan, esq, was a
very interesting paper, and was listened TO
with great deal of interest, and during its
reading and at its close, he was warmly
cheered. An essay, by Il. w. Farmer, was
ofpeculiar interest, and attracted very gen.
eral Interests il was written in his quaint
style, and was amusing and instructive, and
was received with applause; very pretty
and elegantly written little essay by miss
Houston, was well received. She read Il very
well indeed. paper read by mr.. Steyer,
almost exhausted the subject Of education,
and was received rs those which preceded il
with great interest An essay by miss Scran-
ton on education was very interesting, and
was well read. Select reading, by mr.. New
comb and miss Stewart, during the exercises,
added greatly TO their interests. The pieces
of Caudes' Lectures, by miss Stewart was
very clearly rendered and was well received
The discussions were all, with a few excep-
tions, well handled, and many new and in
teresting ideas brought out
Mr.. +. Modglin's system Of teaching PEN
manship was good, and was clearly demon
strated on the black board.
The music furnished by the Golconda choir
was very fine and added greatly to the in
terest and pleasure Of the evenings.
We believe that everything passed off in
the most satisfactory manner, and that all
were well pleased with the meetings of the
Institute; and we have no doubt but that
much good was done.
Before the adjournment of the Institute
series Of resolutions were adopted:
l. Thanks to Theodore Steyer for the eff
forts be has made for the good Of the public
schools @! Pope county.
2. Thanks 10 w. p, Sloan,
3, Thanks to the school directors.

In large numbers on the evening in question
The masked marauders to the number ofabout

town on three different roads, about eight
o'clock in the evening, and Immediately both
parties met on the square and commenced an
indiscriminatc firing with pistols. Which

the impression was that there were that many

positively ascertaincd that one was MORALLY

The kukluX party was composed of men and

cattle. An anti-kuklux meeting. mainly
composed Of cX-rcbes, was held nj Columbia,
on Monday, at which resolutions were adopted
severely condemning the kuklux and their
operations. The general sentiment through
out the state appears TO be that, while the
burdens Of the DISTINGUISHED masses are grew
Gus and hard to be borne, it is wrong and
impolitic to seek redress in the way marked
out by the kuklux.

Fem ale Lawyers.

The last phase of the womans rights horror
is the admission Of young lady to the st.
Louis law school. Nothing would be more
and beauty in behalf of the offenders against
the law. Where is the judge whose opinion
could not be wrapped and he himself twisted
around the dainty little finger of fedgling
legal duck of eighteen summers? In a
breach of promise case your female lawyer
would be overwhelming, her capacity to
paint the villainy of faithless swan being
derived from practical experience perhaps.
The young lady who has just been admitted
to the st. Louis school has, however, no inten-
