The wonder Of those who go TO the Har-
nett House, in Savannah, is that so excel
lent table and such comfortable rooms
can be offered to the public at such mini
mum rates. Without exaggeration, the
table of the Harnett is as good as that of
the Screven House, and the rates just one
half as large. Courteous treatment makes
up the sum ofits attractions. The public
largely testified their apprecIation.-

A NAVAL SENSATION.
A Large Gun Bursts on the q. S. Steamer
StaAdiSh While Cadets Are Praeticing.

ANNAPOLIS, Oct. THE United States steam
er Standish was in command this afternoon of
Lieutenant John r. Meigs, who had the third
division of first class naval cadets on board.
The division, numbering about fifteen cadets, had
fired five shells at a target 700 yards distant in
Chesapeake bay. On the sixth shot the
gun burst with a tremendous crash and a
shiver of the timbers of the ship. Numbers
of pieces of the gun flew completely
over the ship. One piece, weighing over 500
bounds, bounded from one side of the ship to
the other, making two holes in the deck as it
went against the starboard taffrail. Another
piece, weighing over 100 pounds, was lying on a
part of the quarterback, and a third piece of 500
pounds was found on the hurricane deck and
near the boiler deck, broken where it
lay. No one was injured, al the pieces flying
over the heads of the cadets and crew. The
gun was a muzzleloading Parrott, converted
into a steel Lined hpeech loader. 1t was run out
from the port-side quarter and the cadets
were steadying it. Had they been on the other
rope loss of life would have occurred. This is
the second gun of this kind that has burst on the
lStandish, and one of the same make was found
cracked on the Wyoming. TIL cadet who had
fired the gun looked alarmed at what he had
done. Considerable of the rigging of the Stand
ish was carried away,

To the Editor of the indianapolis Journal:
In your daily issue of Sept. % you publish a
letter entitled Democratic management OF
Schools" signed by John st. Clair and Ernst
Zimmerman, NJ. D., of Batesyille, Ind.
We respectfully ask that you give space to the
following statement of the facts in the matter,
as substantiated by the official records in our re
~spective offices, and which we submit in behalf
of Justice and truth and in vindication of the
person whose character is assailed in the letter:
Ray township, FRANKLIN county, Indiana, with
an enumeration of school children of 1--WE hund-
red and eighty-one $751; has six school districts
and employs eight teachers. Districts No. 4 and
No. 5, in which the villages of Enoehsburg and
Hamburg are situated, employ two teachers
each. The town of Oldenburg, which is in the
township and has an enumeration of five humid
red and twelve (512) school children, employs
four teachers. The persons that are transferred
to Oldenburg from the township for school pur-
poses are placed there at their own request and
in accordance with the statute. (Sec. 4473, r.
S. 1881
Two miles west Of Oldenburg is the school
house of district No. 3; one and a half mile
east is the line of Butler township; two miles
north is the line of Salt creek township; three
miles south is the line of Ripleyeounty, on which
is located the village of Huntersyille, where the
children of district No. 2 60 to school. The
town of Oldenburg has no public school build
ing within its limits. The building in which the
school is held belongs to the eongres CATION, and
neither the building itself nor the use Of it
costs or ever has cost the public q cent. No at
tempt was made at any time to incorporate any
of the districts into the town. The teachers of
Ray township and of the town of Oldenburg pass
the public county examination as all other pub
lie school teachers do, and their manuscripts are
on file in the Office of the county superintendent,
where any person who is directly interested in
the schools can inspect them and satisfy himself
whether the teachers are competent or not.
Three of these teachers hold license for TWEEN
ty-four months; six for twelve months and three
for six months. They are all native Americans
except one, who came to this country when
young, and resided fifteen years in Texas and
twenty years in Spencer county, Indiana, where
he taught public school and now holds a twenty
four months certificate from that county. They
are all persons of sobriety and of good moral
character. The trustee consults with the pa
irons of the school, and employs such competent
and regularly licensed teachers as Will best suit
the majority. The teacher of district No. :

Huntersville, and one of the teachers at Olden.
