FOR COUNTY SUPERINTENDENT.

Mrs. S. @. Stevens has concluded to
be candidate to succeed herself as
county superintendent Of schools.
She will run as non partisan candi-
date, and any of the regular parties
may indorse her at their conventions
if they so desire. She has filed the
office during the past two years very
acceptably, and has started several
improvements which will be of bene-
fit to the schools. One of these is the
establishment of libraries. When
she entered the office she found Ii
brarieS in but Is of the schools, out OF
over $50 in the county. She has
caused libraries to be started in a
great many of the districts, and
aroused an interest in the subject.
In other ways she has shown a sim
cere interest in the welfare OF the
schools. and she desires an opportun-
ity to complete her work during the
next two years.
The office is one which should be
non-partisan, as educational interests
are too sacred to become subject OF
partisan action. The best person
should be given the office. Geo. W..
Scherer will be a candidate before the
Republican county convention, and
the claims of Mrs. Stevens will doubt
less be taken into consideration.
Whoever the delegates believe will
best serve the interests of the schools
will undoubtedly be named for the

The Ways Of Woman.

A family in Harlem were just sitting
down to dinner the other evening
when a messenger arrived in hot haste
with a note for the mistress of the
house. 1t was from a woman friend
and ran:
Il am unexpectedly invited out to
dine this evening and want to make
an impression. DO send me all your
diamond rings TO wear and I'll return
them in the morning. / shall be so
obliged and will do as much for YOU il
i ever have the opportunity.
The rings were sent and promptly
returned next day. And the man OF
the house said that the ways OF women
were beyond any mans comprehension.
but his wife only laughed softly and
said nothing. New York Recorder.

warlike utterances came from
