Judge Hulick, OF Clermont, will go to
tue convention at Xenia next Wednes
day with brighter prospects of success
than any of the other candidates. He
has his own county solid; will get a
large share OF Highlands vote +; will di-
vide the vote of Brown county with her
own candidate, Judge Louden, and is
heartily endorsed for second choice bo' b
by Greene and Clinton. Greene will
60 solid for her candidate, Col. Williams,
and Warren will probably remain faith
fal in its allegiance to Brown, while the
Hon. r. E. Doane will face the starter
with Clinton and part OF Highland as
his hackers.

will be at perfect liberty to vote for

that there will be rush for the empty

brilliant record in the present Congress,

How to Save Money.

Every one, would like to know the
secret as well as how to spend it and
secure the largest returns for the amount
expended. Mr.. j. r. Libby solves these
problems I'M his advertisement in our
columns, which will amply repay one for
the reading. This live house does not
believe in having any dull seasons, or in
carrying over any unreasonable goods,
consequently in this ''Final Winter
Sale'' the unreasonable goods have been
marked so low, that purchasers in real
ity, save about as many dollars as they
expend. MI. Libby believes also in be-
inc abreast of the times and giving his
patrons an opportunity of making selec-
tions of the new spring and summer
goods early in the season, thereby giving
to them the same advantages possessed
by ladies in the larger cities, where the
entire lines of new goods are opened as
early as February list. The advantages
gained by the early opening of spring
and summer goods and an early selection
by consumers are many. The choicest
assortment is always shown the first of
the season, which in many instances is
not, and cannot be obtained later, and
one has to be content with what they
can find after the goods have been pick
ed over and the most desirable patterns
taken by the ''early birds" Another
great blessing to all concerned, which
an early purchase makes possible, is the
making up of spring and summer dresses
before the facilitating spring and hot
summer weather approaches, thereby
avoiding the hurry and worry that comes
later on when it seems as though every
body must have everything done at once.
All the early conditions are far more
favorable for securing satisfactory re-
suits. The dressmaker can do more and
better work in these days than in the
sultry and uncomfortable days that are
to come, Ladies can be much better
served by all parties interested, who
make their purchases and have theil
purchases and have their work done
early in the season. Convenience, com
fort, health and economy, bear con
vincing and indisputable testimony Of
the wisdom of such a course.
1t has been gratifying to Mr.. Libby te
find that Portland people appreciate his
early opening of spring and summer
goods. Already the assortments are be-
coming broken, and customers are dis
appointed daily, who return for theil
first choice, only to find that the goods
have been sold, and in some cases cannot
be furnished again this season.

Davy Crockett.


Tonight and tomorrow evening Frank
Mayo will appear at Portland theatre in
''Davy Crockett" Every one should see
this representation of Mr.. Mayo's which
has become identified with the remarka-
BILE performances of the day. An ex-
change says:
1t is an honest homely picture of a
brave but uncultivated man, who is
characterized by tenderness and deli
cacy that we might expect from a pol
ished dillettante; yet there is no incon-
pruity in this combination of character
istics, as the play will show. MI. Mayo
has made his part in this drama quite
famous. and has earned the applause not
only of those who enjoy the pictures of
pioneer life from early association, but
of those who appreciate the high art in
this drama in spite of their prejudice
against pioneer-life plays in general. The
sentiment in the drama is honest and
moral. without being maudlin.
Thery is no slang or outlandish, objec-
tionable features.

have at present.

PUBLIC SCHOOL TEACHERS.

Twenty-Three Candidates Successfully
Pass the Examination.
After two weeks of hard work the
board of education has completed the
examination of the papers of applicants
for teachers certificates. The result is
that out of the seventy-five taking the
examination twenty-three have passed
successfully. Their names are as follows:
Minnie E. keenan,, Katie @. Bohan,
Katherine G.. Charters, Annetta G. S.
Ellis, Katherine A. Perkins, Lucy E.
Burnes, Annie Coyle, Maria Corr, Mary
E. Charters, Nora McElligott, Margaret
L. Dunn, Minnie O'Connor, Anna Nc
Mahon, Mary E. Lahey, Mary O'Connor,
Nellie F. Clohessey, Maria NJ. Mcmahon,
Annie Russell, Maria L. Corcoran, Ella
F. Stannard, Rosa Mcdonald, Josephine
A. Flanagan, Emma Fl. Lyman.
The names are given in the order of
merit in which they passed. Chairman
Mulcahy said that many of the pupils
were very crude and showed a complete
lack of training and fitness, and he
hoped that the board would make a rule
debarring mere ceildren from competing
in these examinations. This move
| would make it more easy for the COM
mittee on examination, for all have tC
be examined, at least far enough to fall
| below the percentage.
| The board then CONSIDERED Cno maCCeT
of filling the several vacancies. Mrs
Elwell was appointed to the room in the
High school, made vacant by the re-
moval of Miss Wilton to the Bishop
street school. Miss Elizabeth Keenan,, q
former teacher, was appointed to a
primary room in Bishop street school.
Miss Mary E. Charters was appointed as
sistant at Long Hill school. Miss Minnie
E. Keenan,, who passed the examination
first in the order of merit, was appointed
assistant at the Washington: school
and Miss G. S. Ellis, who passed fourth
in merit, was appointed assistant to the
Bank street school.
The committee on teachers were in
structed to consider the requests fol
assistants in West Side hill, Porter anC
Sperry street schools.
Judge Webster was appointed on the
of Rev Mr. Micou, whose term has ex
| pired.
