DEMOCRATS GATHER.

EARNEST.
DELEGATES WILL
NOT M ADMITTED 70 THE
CONVENTION.

e
CHICAGO, ILL, Junel7. -Cleveland's
friends do not expect to have more
than one ballot in the convention.
They expect that he will have more
than $50 delegates when the states
have all been called, and anticipate
enough changes at once when the
strength is manifested to give him
two-thirds and more before the ballot
is declared.
Indeed the more sanguine Cleveland
people declare that the ex-president
will have over 600 votes when the bal
loting begins. They claim that at
best their opponents can but divide
the Indianna delegation; that more
than a majority Of the Kentucky dele
cation, which is claimeda hostile, will
vote for Cleveland, and that all Of the
hundred odd delegates such as those
from North Carolina, Louisiana and
Alabama will vote for him, and that
the 1888 votes claimed for Hill will
dwindle to less than 100, even If a bal.
lot is required to settle the nomination.
ANTI-sNAPPERs WILL NOT SNAP.
I One thing, however, seems to b.
very well settled. and that is that the
"Anti-snapper's'' delegates will not b
admitted to the convention, except
probably, as spectators. Even thu
most outspoken Cleveland men declare
that the regular delegates will be the
only delegates from New York in the
convention.

 Dr. w. c. Ingram of Bolivar, Miss, ac- companied by his father from Forrest City, visited our town last week. The doc tor intends locating here at an early date. We extend to him hearty welcome. Mrs. Sexton died Monday evening of pneumonia at the home of her son-in-law, e. $. Abel. "Grandma Sexton." as she was familarly called, was about sixty years old, and until her last illness, which lasted only about week, was unusually sprightly for one of her years. She had been for years church member, and when the weather permitted always at tended. She leaves several children, all of whom are grown and who have the sym pathy of the entire community in their sad bereavement.
 The school is in flourishing condition, as to numbers, the public school having begun on the 4th inst. The house is too small for the in- creasing number of children, and we hope that the next improvement that our town makes will be on the schoolhouse. The present building is comfortable and well furnished. Yet, when we state that there are forty-five seats for school that has an enrolment of more than seventy pu- pills. any one can see at glance the ur- gent need of more room and more seats. We are not complaining at the numbers of ! pupils, we are glad to have them; glad that they have the opportunity to attend school. We say to the parents. send them on and we will do the best we car

for them. They will not learn so much, of course, as they would if comfortably seatsJ. Yet they will learn mnch. For school of this size we never saw as few dull children. All they need is the opportunity, and they must have it. Ii is the duty of we older people to see that they have it. Many of us, seeing now, when too late, the lost opportunities of our youth must make 1t our business to see that these children have that which was so sadly denied 10 us. It is truly q progressive age, and man or woman who forty or twenty years ago would have been considered fairly we'll educated would now be considered almost an igno- raaIus. The children of Palestine must stand On an even footing with the rest of the world CT be left behind. Education is a necessary qualification for almost every occupation in life. There Is no truer saying tha;i that ''thc fields of air are open to knowledge, but ignorance and idleness must crawl upon the ground" II is hard times; yes, but as far back as we can remember it has been hard times. And there will be harder times for these children if we do not educate them. There are two things, though, which are gen erally more nunierously affected during hard times than during better times. These two things are marriages and in- provementS. This is a noted fact, but why it should be the case We do not know unless it be that they are effected by an energy born of desperation. But enough upon this subject Let the thinking peo- pie of Palestine and vicinity take this matter in hand and before another school year begins and we hope to see something tangible done. There will be no use to sit idly and wait for the public school fund to do the work. That is entirely in- sufficient for the needed improvement

 A good sized audience greeted the Wells x Je1frieS dramatic company at the theatre last night. The play, Face to Face" was never presented to an audience in this town before. AS in all other plays of the company, c. Wells is the star. around which the others revolve with more or less brilll- fancy. He appeared last night in the role of the Hon. Augustus Stanley, an eccentric English dude, and in it sustained his reputation as d polished actor. He was always at ease, and managed to look most serious when he acted it in the least. In the role of Mrs. Gen. Joie, flashing and corpu- lent American widow, dying to get married, Miss Mollie Burleigh won the admiration and applause of the house. Miss Mollie Jeffries, as Florence, was very good. The other members of the company did their best work last night. Daily News.

Wells and .Jeffries the company billed to play d benefit for the K. of r. band of this place next week, had the honor to make the initial appearance before the footlishts of the new building.

The play is d beauti- fully drawn comedy romance and the title role as delineated by MT. Charlie Wells imprcsses you the thought that the character was written expressly for him. The leading lady, Mrs. lief fries, also rendered her part with per feet satisfaction to the critical audi. ence.
