grace to the State as well as the party

papers-the Carson Appeal, State Jour

Sharon's imagination leads him to be-

and that his party are, more than
willing to send him back. It is evident
that he is very imaginative, or that
leaders of his party in this State are

AN IMAGINATIVE SENATOR.

A dispatch from Washington to the
Associated Press informs the public
lsthat Senator Sharon says Sits very
uncertain about his being q candidate
for reelection, and the less he cares
about going back, the more willing his
party seems to be to send him"
AS this dispatch is authoritative, the
presumption is that Nevada's Senator
from California is being secretly urged
by influential politicians in this State
to enter the political arena again, as a
candidate for Senator, or that he is
much more imaginative than is gener-
ally supposed. There is not in this
State an individual nor newspaper
that at this day dares to brave public
sentiment by asserting that he ought to
be reelected. He is not a resident of
che State. and has not spent two months

Whitworth College.

In company with about one hundred
Jacksouians, we INDUCED in an excursion
yesterday, projected by the Alumnae Asso-
citation. Of Whitworth College. Eleven
coaches were well filled by the time the
train arrived at Brookhaven. We reached
the College Chapel just in time to witness
the Commencement exercises. We had
never seen the large audience room 50
denseIy packed. Hundreds had to stand
outside The music, the annual address,
the essays, the awarding of diplomas and
medals. occupied the time until TWO o'clock.
Rev. Or Matthews Of New Orleans, was
the Annual Orator, and his theme, the
necessity of more heart education, was dis
cu.5ed in a lively and original style. Mrs.
Lucy \ Kidd, OF the Faculty, in presenting
some medals to the young Ladies', delivered
one of the neatesteSt and most sensible
addresses we have ever heard on a school
ro-trum. The following young ladies were
presented diplomas by DR.. Johnson, in one
of his happiest talks VI. Alice Baldwin,
Enterprise; Pattie Connel, Enterprise; Fan

Columbia, receiving the congratulations
Of the nations, was presented at night, from
s to s o'clock, and Immediately repeated,
each time to packed house, at fifty cents a
head. It was a grand spectacle-a success
in all its details
We have no doubt the AIumne Associa-
ion, by the excursion, refreshments, and
Columbia, realized a handsome sum to-
ward the accomplishment of its cherished
,bject-the erection of another brick build !
ng for the College.
The College catalogue for this year shows
, total attendance Of 2S3, and Of course
more room is wanted.
