EAST TENNESSEE CORRESPONDENTS.


No town in East Tennessee can boast oil
better schools than can Jonesboro'. In
fact, there is but a single school, with diff
ferent departments, all under the super
vision of the Town Board of Education,
more directly under the supervision of the
County Superintendent.
f THE GIRLS GRADED SCHOOL,

highly satisfactory to friends and parents.
j had the pleasure of attending the closing
exercises and interesting examination of
classes to-day. The, average attendance
of pupils had been greatly reduced ON &C.
account of the measles. There will be no
exercises at night. The Rotations and
music interspered with the days exercises
were all in good taste. The ladies had also
displayed taste for the beautiful in deco
rating the chapel and otherwise arranging
for the comfort and convenience of visitors.
At the close of the exercises this evening
the gymnastics were real treat. To see
a large number of beautiful girls, prettily
uniformed, carrying pretty sticks and
making all sorts of graceful motions
who wouldn't say, "How pretty!"
Everything was conducted in an order
ly, systematic way. Prof. III. Presnell
plans and executes, Prof. DilwOrth makes
music, Mrs. S. j. Rhea displays her ability
In teaching the young Idea how to shoot,
and Miss Without assistedin this work aside
from giving lessons in gymnasts, or the
art of being strong, and at the same time
graceful. While JonesborO' provides
for the education of all classes, the Female
School provides for the education Of all the
powers and faculties of the individual.
Mrs. Rhea, so well and favOrably known
as teacher of superior ability, and a
woman of rare accomplishments, has had
much to do in making success of the Fee
male School during the year just passed.
Each of the teachers have done his and her
part, as the closing exercises abundantly
testify. All present pronounced it an en-

On Tuesday night the Turner Band met
and decided, in accordance with the wishes
expressed by many of our citizens, as pub
lished by us in Tuesdays issue, to give
another grand open, air concert on next
Friday night, when the same programme
used during the Farmers Convention will
be reproduced. We understand they pro-
pose to give it in the Deaf aud Dumb
Asylum grounds, there being plenty of
room for promenaders, while the music
can be heard at considerable distance.
We are glad that the band has consented
to favor our citizens with some more of
their fine music and can assure them that
the favor will be duly appreciated, par.
ticularly by those who were so unfortunate
as not to be present at their last concert.

Local Miscellany.

There was heavy travel on the Wes-
tern bound train yesterday. Although
there was not the usual whistling to de-
note that there was bridal party aboard the
train, from the way certain young couple
''co toned" up to each other, we judged
t hat they were either just married, or
would be at the first station that parson
was convenient. .H-l,t
Mr.. Richmond, one of the bridge hands,
had one of his ankles hurt on Tuesday
morning bya piece of timber rolling
against it, which incapacitates him from
laboring for few days. The bridge hands
have escaped wonderfully so far.
An amateur farmer inquired the other
day, "Why, ON all this fair earth, is the
ground spread bottom-side up, SO that it
must be turned up with plough before
crops can be raised ?n
Another gentleman drawing two dollars
a day, and who had been enjoying himself
in the same manner as described by us ON
Tuesday afternoon, thought it rather
rough to be exposed thusly. SO we hit
two birds with one stone.
A mama in the rural districts, lately
gave her five-year-old hopeful an outfit of
fish tackle. Soon she heard shout from
Willie, and running out found one of her
best hens fast winding up the line in her
coop whittier the hook had already pre-
coded it. Willie, observing the troubled
look of his mother, quietly remarked
Don't worry, mother, / guess she will
stop when she gets to the pole."
Owing to the agitation of the hog ques-
ton, pork fell in some localities, we are
told. 51 a9
Water works being the order of the day,
and there being prospect of the ordinance
carrying and that water works will ere
long be established in this city, some of
our young men are trying to learn to use it
as a beverage The result is, there has not
been a single police arrest in the last two
days.
Some philanthropic young man, to save
the City Council any further trouble on
the hog question, has been going around,
in the last few days buying UP ali the hogs
he could find for sale, paying the cash as
he went. We learned of numbers who sold
aud hope to hear of many more doing
likewise. ~ ~ ir.- ~
We have not the least objection to an
determination of the canine race in the
