1Contiuusd from Fourth Page,1
The Seminary not only gives certificates OF
success upon each. branch, but it also confers
partial degrees upon the complexion Oh any
particular line of studies. 1t has provided a
special course for the benefit OF those VINO
wish TO teach, especially in the district SCHOOLS
of Missouri. Those who complete this course
have conferred upon them the District schooi
Normal Degree. Misses Ida Willis, OF Mex
leo, Mo-; Rebecca E. Owens, OF Hlgglns'liie'
and Lily O.. Donnan, of Petersburg, Va; re-
ceiyed this degree. Miss Donnsn also COM
pleted the course in Latin and German. MISS
Eleanor Doss finished the course OF lnstrnc-
ton in piano music and received the degree.
Miss Doss, during her connection Win the
seminary, has received the medals for excel
lence in piano music, in reading, and IN Eng
llsh composition. She also completed Inc
course in history and in English, and is I'M
doubleday one of the most gifted pupils the
school has ever had.
Perhaps the most marked feature Of this
school Is its high standard of scholarship. II
is recognized as being very careful in the be-
stowa of its honors, and especially OF its full
diploma. In the ten years. administrator OF
the present president. only eight pupils have
received the Bsccalaursate Degree. There was
one graduate this year, Miss MINNIE MARTIN
of Marshall. Miss Martin has been a pupil
for four years. In handing the diploma to
her, President Quarles remarked that she had
never failed in an examination, nor given
him a moments pain nor any unnecessary
care. Her mother is a Ewing, aud belongs to
that numerous family distinguished alike in
church and state, Her father is a minister OF
inc Cumurr1xuu presbyterian church. Her
popularity was attested by the numerous and
handsome floral offerings which she received.
There will be no canvassing done for this
seminary this year. 1t is expected that the
number in attendance henceforth will be
small. Indeed only y limited number is de-
sired or will be received. It will be q select
family school. No pupil will be admitted into
tie boarding house unless she is believed to
be obedient, industrious and trustworthy.

Parson Newman proposes to support
the ticket though he is not sure as to
Mr.. Blaine's honesty, and he further
says:-"Mr. Blaine is known as the
sPlumed Knight That means chival-
ry, and chivalry e daring and ven.
turesomeness. Mr.. Blaine has the
dash of the knight. He is a man of
impulses, bnt whether he will allow his
impulses to be restrained by his better
judgment when he occupies the Office
of president is also a matter of the
future. Mr.. Blaine is an original man
and is not likely to follow in the foot
steps of Others. His administration
will be an original one. think that
if hei elected we will have a standing
army of 100000 men inside of two
years."

that Grant will declare for Mr.. Blaine.

elected a member of the Manhattan
Club, and it certainly looks as II he
was marching straight owe into the

democratic party be galvanized into
that degree of momentary good sense
which would lead it for once to aston

He is a substantial, practical business
man and legislator, and if he is the
choice of his county, which we have
no reason to doubt, he will be likely
to receive the nomination, as it is the
general sentiment in Lafayette that the
position should be conceded to John
son.

Delicious chocolate drops are made by melt
ing the chocolate and dippinglittle pieces Of pine
apple in it; canned pineapple viii, Of course,

A nice way to prepare potatoes for supper is
to take cold mashed potatoes, roll out with flour
scattered on the k~neading board, and cut in
cakes with a cOoky cutter; wet them over with
the white of an egg and bake them until light
brown.
Delicious candy is made by beating the white
of one egg and working IN all the eonfectioners'
sugar that you possibly can. Shape the candy
in sticks, and cover with melted chocolate; fla
vor the sugar with vanilla. Instead of the choc-
olate you may cover the sticks with grated co
cOanut. In this case, flavor with lemon.
Tire are so many dishes that are improved by
being cooked in a sort of water boat it would
pay every cook to provide herself with some
such article If made of tin or of iron it will
last a long time, and the expense Is light com
pared with the benefit arising from its use. Not
only custards and cream, but beef teas and broth
of various kinds are advantageously cooked in
one.
novel way to serve orange marmalade is to
cut a third off the top of the orange; remove
the fruit carefully, so as not to break the skin.
If necessary to keep them in shape fill them
with cotton, pressed in quite hard. The top of
the peel may be cut in points, the smaller and
more perfect the %prettier. just before it is
time to serve the marmalade remove the cot
ton; leave space enough at the top so the mar
malade will not spill over. Orange Jelly may
be served in this way also.
Jellied Chicken.-To make jellied chicken or
veal, boil the meat till it falls from the bones:
use just as little water as possible; when cold
chop it very fine, season with pepper and salt
and a pinch OF curry, if you like that flavor.
Then put it in a mold with a layerof hard boiled
eggs, either chopped or sliced. Boil the water
in which the meat was cooked until it is half
boiled away; add a tablespoonful of ~gelatine:
when it is dissolved. and while still warm, pour
over the meat. This will be ready for use the
day after it is prepared.
Nut Candy.-Two pints of maple sugar and
half 2 pint of water boiled together make a good
body for nut candy. Pour it over the nuts spread
on a buttered tin.
Another way to prepare nut candy is to add
chocolate to the maple sugar prepared as above;
then beat the white of an egg very light; add
confectioners sugar until you can not work any
more in: then take walnut meats and cover with
this until like little balls; then, when the sugar
has cooled, though before it is entirely cold, dip
the balls with a fork into it; lay them on buttered
paper to cool and harden,

Farm Notes.

Sheep, to do well, must have dry floors and
runs and have plenty of pure air, and should be
protected from the scare Of dogs.
All buildings in which horses, cattle, sheep,
hogs or poultry are kept should be well yenti-
lated, but not in such manner as to admit
d~raughts.
Peas are of two classes, the round and the
wrinkled. The latter kind, if sown in cold, wet
soil, will rot; the round peas are hardy and may
be sown as soon as the ground thaws. Make u
drill three or four inches wide with the hoe. and
scatter the seed peas in it, so that they viii be
about half an inch apart, and cover with two
inches Of soil.
Attention to little things about the farm, as
in any other business, is what increases the
profits. Plenty of eggs, a few chickens, a few
calves, a colt or so, help wonderfully. If some
of the perquisites arising are given to the chill
dren for the care bestowed they will checrfully
help in the garden, and thus another impOr-
tant item is added to the well-being of the family.
The National Stockman says: Don't think
your horse in best condition to endure a long trip
or a hard drive because he has stood in the stable
for weeks and done nothing. If there is ever u
time that he is soft, it is after a long idle spell,
but many unthinking men do not realize this,
and horses of standing and staying qualities are
often injured by being brought too suddenly
from idleness to hard labor
A writer in Gardening Illustrated finds broken
pieces of bones of value for use in draining pots.
The plants suck the fertilizing quality out of
the bones, and make Il more vigorous growth
than plants drained with broken crockery. The
experiments have been continued for three
years. and so marked has been the superiority in
the growth of the plants in the pots supplied
with bones that the gardener could tell at once
which they were, before examining them, by the
luAuriaut growth.

The Polk Case.

NASHVILLE, Feb. 26.-The Supreme Court
will. next Wednesday, call the case of the State
VS.. Marshal t. Polk, who was convicted in the
Criminal Court, last July, of embezzling funds
urer, and sentenced to thirteen years imprison-
ment. Polk, it will be remembered, left Tenres-
see and was about to cross into Mexico, when he
was arrested and brought back to this city. The
deficit in his accounts was estimated at $400, goo,
against his s~ureties. Polk is part proprietor of
large silver mines in Mexico, which, it is under.
stood. were recently sold to a New York syndi-
cate for 81, 0O0, 900. 1t has been limited that,
through the wealth he would thus acquire, Polk
could pay to the State the amount which he had
taken. 1t is said that Folks health is in such Il
condition that he will not be able to stand trial
in the Supreme Court at present, and that the
case may be postponed until he can appear.

THE MISSISSIPPI INQUIRY.
The Testimony Confined to Proving tn

The Testimony Confined to Proving the
Character of the Murdered Men.
New ORLEANS, Feb. 26.-In the Copiah
county, Mississippi, investigation, to-day, the tes-
timony was a repetition of yesterday, impeach-
ing the characters of Burnett, Lewis and
Matthews. The last named, it was claimed, cor
rupted the board of supervisors, and boosted
that he thereby made money. The elections in
Green's store were declared peaceable, but it was
believed the Independents stuffed the ballot-box.
j. L.. Meade, chairman of the Democratic com
mittee at the last election, testified substantially
as other Democrats. He attributed the excite
ment Of the preceding election to fears of the
people that the Matthew'S crowd would get
possession of the county government, resulting
in the ruin of the people. The witness presided
at the meeting, and approved the resolutions
adopted after Matthew's death.
F. G. Hargrave, sheriff of Copiah county, be-
ieyed he would have been elected sheriff without
any bulldozing.
James Sexton, of counsel for Copiah county
before the committee, was sure the killing of
Wallace, the whipping of Fortner, and the burn
ing of Crump's house were in no way connected
with politics, and did not believe the armed men
who came into Hazlehurst had anything to do
with these or other outrages.
