There being no lectures on Tuesday
morning Of last week the whole of
the morning was devoted to the Nor
NAL work, the evening was spent
listening to readings from Shakespeare
and from the Bible by Mrs. Hart, of
Washington. ID. G..
The Schools of Art and Elocution
are prospecting finely. The entire
day oh "Wednesday was devoted TO
review and examination of the Greek
and Normal Glasses, and at night re-
ports were made of the different
branches of work done during the
entire Assembly. The results were
very gratifying, the finances espec-
tally, bringing them out a few dollars
ahead.
There were several graduates sin
the school of one" Frysinger, who re-
ceived their diplomas with honor,
This was very pleasant and graf
flying part of the evenings exercises.
Assembly officers were elected for
next year, which resulted in the re-
election of all the officers just retir-
ing: DR.. Frysinger, President; Rev.
j. B. Young, Secretary; and Mr., r,
w. Armstrong, Treasurer.
The time for the next Assembly
was fixed for the first Tuesday in
August, 1886. 81
The hour for closing having arriv.
ed, DR.. Frysinger requested that sew
eral would make short speeches, stat
ing to what extent they had been
benefited by the Assembly. Several,
with Rev. j. II. Judd, partook heart
lily in these exercises. He said that
although DR.. Frysinger had served
so faithfully and successfully in con-
Quoting the Assembly without any
financial reward, the Greek and Nor.
NAL Glasses were anxious to show
their high appreciation of his earnest
labors, by each class presenting to
him handsome little volume. The
meeting closed by singing from the
EpwOrth Hymnal, "God be with
you till we meet again.
Thursday morning we were all
startled with the report that Mr..
Atkinson's dog had bitten and near
ly killed the nine months old child OF
Prof. White. Two doctors were
quickly summoned. On examina'
ton they found that although the
largest wound was about three inches
long across the front part of the
head, and that it was cut through
the scalp, but as it had just missed
the fatal spot, it was not necessarily

GROWTH OF WASHINGTON.
The Truth in u Nutshell-Honor Paid
to Whom IL Is Due.

lSlll fThuClhCO
The city OF Washington presents a most
conspicuous example of the results of mu-
nicipal improvements. When Shepherd
began the work of making Washington the
handsomest city in the world 1t was n mere
mudhole. Foreigners were accustomed to
deride its pretensions to rank among the
great capitals Of the world. A few million
dollars were expended, and to-day all unite
in admiriug Washington and many claim
for II the distinction Of being the pleas
ATTEST city in the country, and some that It
has no rival anywhere. The increase OF
than that of any other eastern city, al
though there is absolutely no commerce
or manufacturing to invite such growth
1t is believed by competent judges that
before the century is rounded out Wash
ington will contain over half n million peo-
pie. Let any one ask himself whether such
n growth would have been possible IL Shep-
herd had not advocated aud pursued the
course he did. There has been good deal
OF talk about Shepherds dishonesty and
the rings which marked the era of improve.
ment IN Washington, but 1t is a noteworthy
fact that he still enjoys the esteem of the
taxpayers Of that city, and were he to re-
turn tomorrow he could demand and
would receive any favor in their power to
bestow. The reason is simple enough. He
was the only man with foresight enough to
recognize tina; Washington needed to be
pulled out of the mire He set to work and
accomplished the task, and property has
increased in value marvelously.

The papers Of that city should not mention

press should Dever refer to anything which
threatens public health. Still, the health Of
Washington has been preserved during the
