HUMBOLDT, KANs., Aug. !, '79.

EUatOT heQtStcT:-
That which was to have arrove has
actually arriven, and at 4 p. m. of this
eventful day the Allen County Normal
Institute is thing of the past.
!, An overplus of eronsming preparatory
to the examination accounts for our not
sending in report last week. Ofeourse
the teacher should know everything, and
be ready at any and all times to tell it.
but then if he finds school text books
very interesting reading matter just
previous to examinations, why, you
know, there's no accounting for tastes.
On Friday eve, July 25th, Prof J. J.
Mcbride, of Neosho Falls. delivered a
lecture before the teachers entitled "The
Words We USE" He had large and
appreciative' audience, and people who
are judges say that it was one of the
finest efforts they have ever heard.
On Wednesday evening July 30th a
giand teachers reunion was held in the
hall over the post Office. Prof. Mid
daugh was elected chairman and j. C.
Gordon, Secretary. Arrangements were
made to organize permanent county
organization. A committee on Constitu>
ton and Bylaws was appointed also
one on programme. Then followed some
impromptu literary exercises by various
members of the Institute, followed by
select reading by Prof. O. v. Hayes, an
Grafton by Prof. A. G. Scott and closing
remarks by Prof. Middaugh. Prof.
Scott's Grafton was entirely impromptu
and was admitted by all to be master
effort. Well, what could come next but
refreshments, and the way those peda-
gogues and goguesses went for that cake
and ice cream would astonish any one
not perfectly familiar with the proper
tions of the gastrial accommodations of
the average teacher of Kansas. Each
teacher then resolved himself into a
committee of one to see that all had q
good time, and when we separated
toward the "wee small hours it was
given up that each committee had per-
formed its duty.
Well, we believe this is all, except to
say that the ga" class has passed the
and to see the smiling faces
that emerged from the examination room |
Friday noon, one would think that Allen |
would have ga" teachers to spare
THIS year.
This afternoon Prof Middaugh made
some very sensible remarks to the teach
ers on school management, and farewell
addresses were made by the various
persons connected with the Institute,
and several very appropriate resolutions
we're presented by Mr.. Gordon. and
passed by the Institute.
After general hand shaking and fare
we'll, the teachers separated mutually
satisfied with themselves, their conduc-
tors and the Allen County Normal Insti-
sute. One thing, however, was omitted,
much to our sorrow, and that was TO
hank Lnstituter for his distinguished and
George Washington like reports. All
we'll, talent is never appreciated!
Yours, INsTITUTER.

The following anecdote illustrates the
position of the public officers in the Luse
case. Children always do as older people
do. Little Lutte Slower said, 81 am going
to get my revolver and take two or three
other boys and go down and arrest
another boy. Naming him. I'll tell
him to halt and if he don't I'll shoot
him." "Why Lutte, what has that boy
done. p 81 don't know as he has done
anything, but hasn't Mrs. Richardson
lost a whip and halter ? and somebody
has got to be arrested" MCDONALD.

Fafrlawn-MarmatOn TIP.

In your last weeks issue see that my
cousin seeks or needs enlightenment as
to why Brother Kline could not go ar
range his appointment (Which was not
his but Brother Pendleton's) as not to
conflict with Brother Holden's. Now if
1 thought my cousin capable of under
standing the why's and wherefores I
would stop right here and add another
explanation or rather repeat the one he
has 80 often heard. But suffice it to say
that it was explained to the satisfaction
of Brother Holden and he as christian
gentleman kindly consented to occupy
the M. E. Church in lola and let Brother
Pendleton hold forth at the Fairlawn
school house.
He also says that Mr.. D. s. has the
inside track in Marmaton. How he has
found that out / can't surmise for am
confident of one thing, the gentleman
gagged with the other crowd last fall.
But may be he has got his eyes open and
has concluded to turn a new leaf. I
hope he has. But one thing you may be
sure of, Marmaton is solid on the Re-
publican ticket.
No rain for near two weeks and the
croaker is coming forth. Nevertheless,
the crops look we'll and / think the
trouble will be with the crib next fall.

LOCAL MATTERS.

THE FIRE LAST NIGHT.-BetweeD u and
i O'Clock last night q bright light was seen,
apparently from fire on Cary street, In
the vicinity Of The Danviiie dep0t. A gen.
man came into the Dispatch Office and asked
how it was that no alarm bad been given.
The bright light was shining upon the side
Of the GalIego Mills, and several persons
near the corner OF Twelfth and Main streets
thought that q serious fire was in progress {;
so an alarm was turned in at Station 10,
which proved to have been unnecessary, as
the fire was long way Of, and was the
burning Of large two-story frame build.
ing at the granite sheds, opposite Rockets,
which was consumed.
The first story was used as carpenter
shop. and the second as an Office. There
were two safes in the building filed with
the company's papers, which were also de-
stroyed, together with the contents. When
the fire was first discovered the whole. in
side OF the building was in flames. 1t origi-
mated from the tire which had been left IN
the stove in the afternoon.
In case some OF our friends in The Fire
Department may consider the turning in CT
the alarm at Station Ii good joke on the
Dispatch reporters, it may as we'll be stated
that a Joke may be had al the expense OF
some one else, as one OF the Assistant En-
sincers. who chanced to be up town, saw
the fire some ten min utes before the alarm
was turned in, ran 10 the Tenth-street hose
bouse, reused that company, and hurried
down to Fourteenth street, thinking con-
f1agralion was progressing in that neighbor-
hood t'f

age, who was arrested by Officer Tomlinson
Wednesday for cutting Patrick Lane with a
