Greencastle, Sullivan county Mo-, a
town claiming 500 inhabitants is with
out choolhouse.- kirksville Graph

Greencastle's old school house was
a very poor one, but Greencastle is
building new school house that will
be large enough and nice enough to
compare favorably with any town OF
500 inhabitants in Adair county or any
other of the surrounding counties.
VIII the Graphic make a note of this?
II Milan Standard.
Glad to hearit. Greencastle is fine
ly located and in rich and prosper
GUS farming community. Her people
are intelligent and enterprising and a
majority are republicans. In fact
Greencastle and the surrounding coun-
try has all the elements of n progressive
and prosperous community, and this is
why we wondered at her lack of a
school house. The fact was ircon.
gruous. Will the Standard pleas
publish our explanation so that the
people may not feel that the GRAPHIC
has spoken only as friend. Now
there are some other townships in Sui
hvan county where the absence of
school house would not be at all re-
markable.

W. NJ. GILL, Editor.

The Edna Democrat commences an
editorial on the Ohio elections with
the remark that the result was not q
surprise to any intelligent and reflect
ing person. Democratic newspapers
are the hardest set to surprise in the
world-after an election. Nothing
surprises them, they always expected
1t, knew it long ago, etc, hence one
must conclude that before elections
they are most inveterate set of io-
kers. Remember, after this when a
Democratic editor figures outa sweep
ing victory before election he is only
joking, for the same jovial cuss will
coolly tell you that any intelligent and
rejecting person ''might have known
better.''

Death of Hendrick II. wright.

A really good man has passed away in the
person of ex-Congressman Hendrick b.
Wright, who died yesterday at his home in
Wilkesbarre, Pa. Mr.Wright was born at
Plymouth, Luzerne County, Pennsylvania
April "a, 1903. He pursued the usual class
ical and mathematical studies at Dickinson
College, upon leaving which he began the
study of law. He was admitted to the bar
of Luzerne County in 1881. In 1S41 he
was elected to the house of representatives
of Pennsylvania, and reelected in 1912.
In 1S43 he declined the nomination of
State senator, and was again elected to the
house. Upon the opening of the house he
was chosen speaker. In 1874 the Demo-
cratic National Convention met at Balti-
more to nominate candidate for the Presi-
dency. Mr.. Wright was delegate at large
from Pennsylvania, and was made chair
man of the convention. Polk and Dallas
were nominated. In 1861 he was elected
to Congress by both parties. He was the
Democratic candidate for Congressman ut
large in 1872, and, being Endorsed by the
Workingmen's Convention, ran several
thousand votes ahead of the ticket. Mr..
Wright was elected to Congress in 1876 in
the Luzernc district, and again in 1873.
His political life closed March A, 1881.

A. Il. Stewards Gay widow.

From a Saratoga Letter.
1t has been very truly remarked that Mrs.
Stewards style Of dressing has changed
greatly since ten years ago, When she used
to congratulate herself that she was
wealthy enough to afford to dress with SIM
plicity. Now she wears all that the most
stylish and exacting of drcss-makcrs could
demand in fabric and cut, and her toilets
are Us many as belle can boast of in her first
season. At the garden party she wore a
white brocaded satin, thick and heavy
enough to stand alone, as our GRANDMOTHER
put it. 1t was fiounccd with deep point
lace over plain white satin plaitings, and
the corsage was cut with q narrow V to fit
broad cOllarette of the same lace A large
cluster ofwhitc lilacs were fastened at one
side with diamond buckle, and diamond
buckles were on the SLEEVES and sashes Of
the overskirt. Youthful as this toilet was
it was not unbccoming, for, like her late
husband, Mrs. Stewart looks remarkably
young for her age, and her slight, trim
figure and auburn hair would do for /;
woman of forty.
