All the teachers Of the public schools of
the county are compelled by law to attend

the State at great expense. They are
heavy tax upon the teachers time and
purse, and many think without any value
received. The sessions of the institute
are open to all, and the public are no.
only invited to attend, but are urged to
come that they may judge for themselves
whether the benefits derived from the in
stitute will justify the expanding Of SO
much money, and whether they furnish
a compensation to the teachers for their
time, labor and money. The exercises
will be varied from day to day, and will
be conducted in such manner as to afford
instruction to all, whether teachers or
not. The third day Wednesday, will be
the school officers day, and 1t behooves
the trustees of the schools and the boards
of education to attend, as matters pertain
ing to their several offices will be fully
discussed. This ia the first time the in
stitute has been appointed at this place
since it has been compulsory upon the
teachers to attend. Let our citizens turn
out and show their interest and encO urage

THE WHITE PLAINS WE'LL.
Machinery to sink 1t Deeper--What
WINS found In Boring.


The Reno Gazette says the railroad
company has decided to sink the
White Plains well thousand feet
deeper, unless they find water sooner,
and w. G. Chaplin has returned from
.he East with machinery for that pur-
pose. When the well was started the
machinery was arranged to sink it
1000 feet. That depth was attained
last August. The well goes through
400 feet of drift, then through 600
feet Of lava, then 160 feet of volcanic
ash or block slate, below which the
rock Is absolutely dry. Next co es
600 feet of fine sand rock, which looks
as much like sea sand deposit as can
be, and was doubtless put there when
bed of a sea or an arm of the ocean.
There is no salt below the 1100-foot
lsvel, although the whole top of the
ground is bed of salt. Within $50
feet of the bottom of the sand rock
was layer of soft black wood of rap
id growth, 90 feet thick. 1t was in a
good state of preservation, and Mr..
Chaplin thinks it had foated in or else
grew there, showing that this once
was the surface OF the ground. Be-
low the sand rock, the drill struck the
original country rock, into which they
have gone 250 feet. 1t is hard, dark
gray rock, looking like basalt, but
different in some respects. Below
that he expects to strike water, and
then the question will be whether it
is backed up by enough to force it
up. If not it will be pumped up.

SIN, vigorous organizations of Repub-

lief that Gov. Cleveland will win.
