Wilmington Conference Academy
Ladies Hall.

The Ladies Hall is about completed ano
is now ready for furnishing, which task the
ladies' of the Conference have undertakes a:
their work of love.
It takes about $50 to furnish a room. Sew
eral rooms have been furnished memor1ally
which is a nice thing to do in honor Of those
we love. Several charges have responded
to the full amount; some partially and sorry
to say, some so far not heard from.
The building will be ready for occupancy
by September 9TH, and the prospect for stu
dents is very excellent IN both departments
The school can offer for the patronage of the
parents of the Peninsula this now, for the
first time, complete institution Of learning
The standing Of the Boys Department ano
the advantages offered have lifted this Acad
envy up among the best Of its grade. As the
president Of one of our colleges said TO the
father ofone of our graduates
Graduates from that academy can enter
this institution without further examination.
This is our custom with but very few aeade'
mics. We look upon that institution as one
Of the best"
Two wide stairways and outside ere es-
caDes out from each story afford both com
fort and safety. It is heated throughout
with direct steam flues The sleeping rooms
are LARGE and well lighted and ventilated
all new furniture of best styles; separate
beds for the occupants and no more than
two ladies to a room. The two buildings
are connected by an entry-way on the study
hall floor, with heavy doors shutting 1t of
at will, on the ladies side Of which are the
rooms Of the principal and his family. The
outlook being entirely to'the east, south ard
west gives sunlight and consequently health
into every room in the building, and tile en-
tire building being in the centre Of large
open campus, affords air aud seclusion for
the students. The entire building will be
thrown open on opening day and we will
gladly welcome and entertain you.

AS Mr.. Hatch is a political opponent OF the
Secretary the writing Of such letter makes
him all the more deserving. Ihefe snould
be no politics in the enlargement OF the

Gov J. w. Fifer, Of Illinois, and his otheial
stat. spent several days in Washington after
they had officially dedicated the Illinois

One of the latest is that Hon. Stephen D.
Rlkius. Of West Virginia, is slated as Secre-
tarv Proctoris successor. From the best IN
formation obtainable your correspondent
doubts whether any one is yet slated ior sec
retary of War. The President has until the
first of November to make the election, ioI
while Secretary Proctor might prefer retiring
before the date of the beginning OF his sen
atorship, it is certain that he will remain It Il
Is any accommodation to the President until
the last minute. There is also lots OF tax
about the probability of Secretary Blaine
resigninR, but at the State department he IS
expected to resume his duties about October

flying around, it being stated that he would
resign if nominated for Governor OF ne"
York by the Republican State Convention
He is at his desk to-day, but he positively
refused to discuss what he characterized as
idle rumors.
