Or the ballots TO make it legal in case Of his

1t makes no difference really whether the
name Of the candidate for President is on
3he ticket at all, as the voter casts his bal
lot for the electors, aud they cast the vote
OF the State for the candidate for President
d is usual, however, to put the names Of the

Mr.. CLEVELAND was baptized STEPHEN

Money Is the universal necessity, and

thist truth. His disease involved the whole of
his thigh bone, and the suffering man look

to death as his only deliverer. His family
physician refused to amputate the limb
asserting that the operation would kill the
patient on the spot. DR.. David Kennedy,

held a different opinion and ampu.
tated the limb. The Doctor. then admins

The Hampton Institute.

The Hampton Normal and Agri-
cultural Institute at Hampton. Va,
held its anniversary exercises on Thurs
day, May 90, and the reports made
on this its sixteenth year show
a good degree of prosperity. There
have been on it's rolls the past year five
hundred negro and one hundred and
twenty Indian students-the former
preparing to go South to teach their
people. where nearly a thousand
already trained in this Institute have
established themselves and are
doing a great work in the col
ored schools, especially
of Virginia and North Carolina.
Of Indians seventy have already gradu-
ated and gone back to their homes in
Dakota, and in the Southwest, and are
employed at the agencies as teachers,
mechanics, farmers and hired hand
Not over seven have gone back to Indi-
an ways, and eight have died. On the
whole the record of educated Indians
who have in the past three years re-
turned from Hampton to their homes
has been satisfactory.
The school has been built up since
1868 at a cost Of about $500, 900, and is
free from debt. 1t is now seeking an
endowment for its annual expenses,
which are $4,000 in excess of aid re-
ceivcd from the Government. 1t is a
private. not u public, institution, duly
Incorporated, and is aided only in a
moderate degree by the Government,
which helps the Indians only.
The Trustees are making. a special
effort to secure sixteen thousand dollars
to build u new dormitory for colored
girls, two hundred in number, who are
now greatly crowded and suffering for
want of room. General S. c. Arm-
strong, the principal of the school Cad,
dress, Hampton, Va.), will gladly re-
ceive and acknowledge contributions
for any of the purposes OF the school,,
which is an attempt to solve two OF the
race problems OF our country. 1t IS
conducted on the manual labor plan.
| Students work out on the farm, or IN
the shops, the most 81 their
| expenses. They have earned his year
over $50, OOO. The whole six hun
| dred-a little less than one-half are girls
are literally working out their own
salvation. This feature OF self-help
commends the school to the confidence
! and interest Of all good citizens.
