Oar town superintendent OF schools
recently visited the school Ia this place,
aud very unexpectedly raised u tempest
that taxed his ingenuity TO allAy. Among
the questions asked by him was the usu-
al one, "Wbo is president OF the United
States? This question WAS promptly
answered by young lady OF IL years
saying, Samuel }. Tilden il president.
Master s. c., a young gentleman OF s
years, Immediately 1led bill OF excep-
ceptions and very emphatically declared
Rutherford d. Hayes president. Young
lady gets excited, attempts intimidation,
young gent Is fairly aroused AID won't
intimidAte, and the vexed question, "who
Is president that has puzzled politicians
for months, would have been settled then
aud there, but our superintendent with
consummate tact, stilled the storm for
the moment by giving each party pres.
idenl. telling the children that Mr.. Til
den i. the elected president, and Mr..
Hayes i the appointed president. Young
lady I, satisfied with the decision, young
gent is siienl, but a little puzEled.
