Prof Stewart delivered a second lect-
ure In Hancock Hall Monday evening. 10
large audience. He speaks most emcour.
agingly of the prospects for rich mineral
Developments Ia this section, and believes
some of the veins now discovered will
prove as rich as any In the country. He
does net think that all the fine surface
indications will develop into rich mines,
but that some oil these have been struck.
He says the Sullivan mine shows as rich
ore as he ever saw at the same depth.
The entertainment given BY the L. r.
C.. In Hancock Hall, Friday evening was
well attended, considering the iuclemency
of the weather, and was greatly enjoyed
by those present. In the Operetta the
parts were well sustained and the solos
and choruses well rendered The laugha-
bic Farce The Mummy" abounded in
comical sayings and situations and held
the close attention of the audience to the
close. Both pieces were repeated on Sat
urday evening, but the house was small,
owing TO the continued rain. AT some fu-
ture time we believe the Operetta and
Farce can profita5ly be repeated, as many
would doubtless be glad to hear them. who
were detained. this time, by the weather.

term of ten weeks. Miss True. Mrs. Back
US aud Mrs. Royal, who have so long been

quire any word of commentator bat our
two new teachers. Miss Haynes OF the
intermediate School, and Miss Pierce of
the Strawville School. deserve favorable
mention. Both these Young ladies are
very faithful and efficient teachers, and
their success has been wonderful. Long
may they continue to hold the positions
which they now ill with so much credit TO
