Advanced School Ideas.

The Boston school committee have
done a creditable thing in deciding to
establish an industrial school. The
plan is to give each pupil an opportu-
nifty to try various kinds of manual labor,
and when it is determined which he
should make his specially, shops will be
provided where he can be instructed in
The details Of his work. These schoo
shops are to be provided for by the pub
lie funds. They are a step in the right
direction. There are thousands of chill
dren that are given an education in our
high schools who would have made far
better citizens and been of far greater
use to the world had they been in an in
dustrial school and learned something
beside Greek, Latin and the various
ologiee. We believe that these schools
arc probably destined to be al import.
ant a factor Of orr school system as the
high school.

FIRE IN DANvILLE-TwO LIVES
LosT.-On Sunday of last week, in
Danville, Va, the building known as
the Grange Warehouse was burned and
two lives lost.
The Danville Post says the fire was
doubtless the work of an incendiary.
In the upper part of the building was
hung on sticks about $50, 600 pounds Of
tobacco which was perfectly dry and in
most 1nflammable condition.
Mr.. Samuel Croxton Of Halifax
county, who had lately reached the city,
occupied room in the building and
persisted in the flames.
Mr.. John w. Does, fireman, made
an heroic effort to save young Croxton,
but persisted in the attempt. His body
was found almost entirely consumed,
and was recognized only by the cloth
ing remaining unburned.
The aggregate property losses are
estimated at about $55, 600; coverd by
Insurance to the amount of $50. 500.
This fire in its deplorable calamities
and great destruction of property was
ore of the most terrible that ever Oc.
Cured in Danville.

A FINE SPECIMEN OF VIRGINIA
Observation-Disclosures Holiday was the
finest specimen of Virginia manhood
that I saw in the State. The empty
sleeve hanging at his eide shows that he
was a Lost Cause advocate during the
late unpleasantness, but he looks every
inch man, and, after seeing him. one
does not wonder that the Regulators in
Virginia have found it impossible to
seduce or brighten him from standing
boldly by the credit and honor of his
State. He has had hard place to fill,
but he has stood by his convictions, and
has done good thing for Virginia in so
doing. Editorial Cor. of the springfield

GEO. ELLIOT MARRIED.-Miss Mar
ian G. Evans, better known as "Geo.
Elliot" the famous English novelist,
who is recognized as the greatest living
female writer, was married on the 9th
inst, to Mr.. Cross. She was born in
Warwickshire, Eng, about 1920, her
father being a poor curate Of the Estab-
lished Church.
Many years ago Miss Evans allied
herself with the distinguished philoso-
pher, George Henry Lewes. 1t was
impossible to form legal marriage, on
on account of technical or legal difficult
ties springing from an earlier marriage
on the part of Mr.. Lewes. Since the
death of Mr.. Lewes, in November. 1878,
she has edited two posthumous volumes
of his treatise on philosophy. Mrs
Cross is said to have earned $3.50, 900 by
her pen. She is of medium height, has
large features, gray eyes, gray hair and
a sweet voice. She is not handsome,
but possesses such fascination in con-
versation as to Danish all consciousness
that her personal appearance does not
entirely correspond to the high standard
of her character and intelligence.
The State wittily says:-
George Elliot" the great novelist,
has been married and satisfied the de.
mands of society by becoming q real
wife. And though she has taken uI
ner Cross somewhat late in life, bel
past experience should eminently fiji
her to bear it right manfully.

KILLED BY CHLOROFORM.-On last
Tuesday at Charlottesville, Mrs. B. V.
Whitlock, a popular milliner of that
place, was found dead in her room
Whilst alone she used chloroform to re-
lieve suffering caused by neuralgia, and
and it caused her death. A correspon-
dent of the Commonwealth says that,
not appearing at dinner-time the ser
want went to call her, and found her
lying on the floor, with an empty bottle,
which had contained chloroform, in one
hand, and handkerchiefsatu with
the drug in the other. It is supposed
that she went to sleep and the bottle
turned over, allowing the chloroforn to
escape, and killed her. 1t is thought
she did not intend suicide. Mrs. Whit
lock was a native of Richmond, but has
been residing in Charlottesville ten or
twelve years.

DESTRUCTIVE STORM IN ILLINOIS,
On Sunday of last week, destructive
storm of rain and wind swept over q
portion of Illinois. The thriving village
of Olsey, near Winchester, Scott county.
was nearly destroyed by the fearful
wind on Sunday evening. There was a
cloud burst and terrific rain, thunder,
and lightning just before the catastro-
phe. The wind took narrow path,
demolishing everything in its way, but
lasting only three minutes. Twenty
buildings were either totally or partially
destroyed. No lives lost.
A fearful cyclone swept across the
eastern part of Mclean county, Sunday
night, damaging property at least $780,
O0O In Arowsworth township twelve
dwellings were utterly dem olished, and
one hundred and sixty acres of orchard
totally destroyed. In Empire township
the damage was nearly IS widespread,
and many persons were injured.
