Capacity and Persistency.

Mrs. Sarah X. Bolton in her olives
of Girls Who Became Famous" says
of Maria Mitchell, the famous astron-
omer, that her childhood was a con-
tinuous chapter of struggles and
deprivations. At nineteen she ac-
cepted position of librarian of the
Athen@um Library at a salary of $50
the first year and $75 the second.
For twenty years Miss Mitchell
worked in this library, never receiv-
ing more than 500 year. As there
were not many readers on the little
island in those days she had ample
time for study. 1t was in October,
1847, that she discovered the comet
that brought her fame. In 1857 she
visited England, where she met Sir
John and Lady Herschel and Alexan-
der Won Humboldt. In 1865 Vassar
College was opened, and three years
later when the observatory was com
pleted, she was prevailed upon to ac-
cept a professorship, which she held
for twenty years. New York Press.

The visit of Mrs. Dorcas Spencer,
of California, to this city, was highly
appreciated by those having the priv
ilege of listening to her lecture on
Scientific Instruction" and S'Who's
Business is it Anyway" The Band
of Hope and Gospel Temperance
meeting on Sabbath afternoon, were
addressed by her. She understands
the scientific temperance instruction
work thoroughly, and gave facts and
figures in such manner as to con-
vince the most skeptcal.
Mrs. Chace just returned. She
found the work in some places en-
couraging, but in many the few are
working under many discouragments.
AT the two conferences, Little Rock
and White River, her brief addresses
were received with deep interest, and
comprehensive resolutions were
adopted showing an advancement of
thought and purpose in the ministerial
vanguard of this large organization,
which tokens good for the state.
Many came for more explicit direc-
lions in regard to the work, for our
scientific temperance law, and we
feel that in many of these brothers
we have warm, earnest helpers in this
work. Seed sown two years ago by
Mrs. Chace in getting temperance

Educational and General.

esting items concerning the Summer
Normal. The work is progressing;
two cottages are almost ready for
use, and the school building proper
will be erected during the winter
months. The school was regularly
Incorporated last July, with capital
stock of $4,000. The plans are not
fully matured, but it is thought they
will be similar to those used in the
Mont Eagle assembly room. We clip
the following:
"They will secure the best lecturers
and school experts for two or three
months, and have them conduct the
school. Teachers of all grades will
be benefited thereby, and especially
the younger ones who have few OPP
portunities to improve themselves
elsewhere. In addition to the regu-
lar teaching and lecturing, which will
be given to professional teachers upon
the common and high school branches,
it is intended to 60 further and ex-
tend the system of instruction to
other professions and to the arts.
Eminent teachers of Hebrew, Greek
and Latin will make this school a de-
sirable resort for young ministers and
all other strictly professional men.
Expert musicians and the best teach
ers of music will be an attraction
which can hardly fail to draw all
lovers of song and of the harp to
Nebo's shrine. In all this work no
teacher is to be selected who is not
only eminent as a teacher but partic-
ularly gifted in his methods of teach
ing and manner of delivery. With
such masters of the work there is and
can be no reason why the Mount
Nebo Summer Normal School should
not succeed. With such masters no
one need fear any lack of patronage
in Arkansas. TO obtain these teach
ers large salaries must be paid and
these salaries must be met by CORE
spending tuition rates. These rates
will be low and will be graduated to
suit the wants of those who may de-
sire to attend. A general rate will
be fixed for those who may desire to
attend all of the lectures. Other
rates will apply to music, to art, to
Hebrew, history, etc.
The intent of the school is of the
most elevating and patriotic nature,
and deserves the help, material and
moral, of every Arkansas citizen. 10
bring the choicest fruits of study, ex-
perience and practiced observation to
the very doors of all our teachers and
students is an object as well worthy
the highest encomiums as it is difficult
of achievement. The difficulty is a
lack of encouragement from those
who are able to take stock and push
the school forward at a much more
rapid rate. Instead of eight thousand
building capital the school needs
twenty thousand, and it will have that
amount in time. Why not now? The
shares of stock are valued at $25
each, and every man who has any
spare means ought to invest at least

evening of his incarceration and ordered
him to leave town the following morning.
The complaining witness insisted that he
should be tried, and went in pursuit of
Cayless at Owens expense. The accused
had oversight himself, and appeared on
the streets soon after the departure of his
enemies. The officer Jailed him, and the
trial occurred upon the return of the pur-

HE WEAKENED.
Burgren Confessed Stock. Thief, Implf-
Gates Frank Palmer.

Several mornings since THE LEADER
published a special dispatch from Lusk,
telling of the arrest and preliminary hear
ing of Louis Burgren, who acknowledged
that he was guilty of the unlawful killing
Olive stock.
Further particulars in regard to the af-
fair, duplicating one of the best known
men in Laramie county, a %ranchman re-
siding near Lusk, have just been learned.
In making his confession, Burgrcn
said that the first crime of the character
mentioned committed by him was in con-
nection with Frank Palmer, the ranch
man to whom reference is made.
Burgren was badly frightened, but told
a quite credible yarn to Parker and Dep
uty Owens. He claims that sometime
last fall Palmer prevailed upon him to as
sist in the slaughter of a stolen steer.
Since that time the pair butchered four
other animals, and recently Burgren en-
gagged in the business on his own account.
By chance Stock Inspector Parker de-
tected him in the first %offense.
When arrested Palmer protested limo
cence. He demanded a preliminary hear
ing after night fall, but weakened when
confronted with the remains of animals
found on his premies by the officers from
Burgren's directions. He waived exam
nation and furnished surety in the sum
Of $500.
Burgren's bond had been placed at ST.
900, but was lowered to half that sum af-
ter Palmer's apprehension. Palmer and
his friends are makiag strenuous efforts to
secure the release of Burgren.s
