Spelling Bee.

1t was our pleasure to attend rather
q novel, though altogether interesting
entertainment at the Institute Satur-
day night, after the manner and form
of the old-fashioned spelling bee"
AS an Introductory to the exercises,
Mrs. Ivy favored us with some excel
lent music, after the rendition of which
Prof, Dean gave a short talk on pa
triotism, polite principles, common
sense. etc.
After an hour had been consumed
with the previous part OF the program
and making preparatory arrangements
for the contest, the spoilers were ar
ranged in opposing line, headed by
two brave and confidential captains.
Messrs. w. b. Ellis and j. j. Conan.
Profs. G.. I. Howerton and S. A. Nor
risen were chosen enunciators Dr.
Carmuck Umpire. Prof: Dean and
Col Steele, referees, j. Hafford Moore
bugler The blue back speller was
the book used, and in the beginning
was simple and easy. But hardly had
the words past twice around when
the batters began TO strike OUT 1t
was indeed amusing to see some OF
Iuka's most prominent sons and
daughters tossed mercllessly by the
orthoepic and photographic tide One
by one they yielded. "Cy1inder' was
spelled at and articuIated in as many
different ways as there are letters in
the makeup of the word. 1t seemed
to be uttered with every degree OF
meditation and stress from emin ent
phonetic perfection to an inept iricism.
The next fatal word, ''sirius," became
rather serious" and broke the enc.
my's ranks in several places, also re-
acting with marked effect upon our
line, The next missile was of pro-
phetic nature, and dealt fatal blow
to the valiant captain in command.
With all his brilliant store Of llnowl-
edge he had forgotten this prophecy. ,
The spirited enuncation lasted for
one hour, when We had fallen Off to
one on a side. The battle then was of
but few minutes duration. Miss
Minnie Robinson was the successful
contestant, and it was quite pleasant
for us to own defeat at the hands of
a young lady of such matchless talent.
Two handsome prizes were awarded
as first and second honors, and the
evening came to close, having been
enjoyed, seemingly, very much By all.

9TH OF JULY.
The Nations Pride,

AT the approach OF this eventful dav
there is kind of hilarious sensation
that thrills the soul of American citi-
zens In every avocation of life. The
day is unanimously recognized and OBJ
served as national day of celebration.
Yet, 1t Is strange how great the num-
Der who know nothing of the history
OF the day, nor recall by word or act
any memories Of patriotism. 1t is a
day that should carry with it sacred
memories OF our fore-fathers, who by
their blood shed established the nation
and set apart the day that their post
esity might observe it with fit com
memoration. Did you eyer realize
that your 4th of July celebration is a
tribute to the memory of those grand
old patriarchs. 1t should be in q most
fitting and patriotic manner. 1t is a
day that entwines many sweet forget
me-nots in memory's wreath, and will
and should ever be a symbol of victory
and glory and honor and fame Tint
which browns real sorrow browns
true pleasure, and why not spend a
Patriotic day in a sober, pleasant and
patriotic manner.
