THE NORMAL AND INDUSTRIAL
SCHOOL.

The date for the opening of the State
Normal and Industrial School has been
postponed from September 28th to Oc-
tober 9Th. This change has become
necessary on account of an unexpected
delay in receiving from the manufac-
turers theIhot-water heating apparatus.
The material has been shipped, and
part of it received and put up. The
authorities feared that everything
might not be ready by the 28th. Presi-
dent McIver receives new applicants
for admission every day. The institu-
ton will open with it's buildings full,
and about fifty students, who could
not be received into the college dormi-
tories, have secured board in private
families.

BRO. UTLER IS A FARMER.

Mr.. EDTroR:-We the undersigned,
being aware of the fact that some Of
the political papers have published that
Hon. Marion Butler should not lead a
farmers or Peoples party as he knew
nothing about farm work. Now we
can say for him, without any fear of
contradiction, that we have known
him ever since quite an infant and that
he has been a farm laborer ever since
large enough to work, except while in
school, until he was called to take
charge of Salem High School, which
prospered and fourished under his
care. w. J. BUTLER,

Turtles Ire.

A boy at Newark, N. j., found two
swapping turtles on Sunday morning
and started to carry them home. In
crossing garden he was met by the
owner, who poured out volley OF
broken English upon the lad. The boy
stood his ground bravely and returned
vigorous language, but in doing SO for
got all about the turtles and held one of
them close to his bare leg. The turtle
seized the lad by the left calf and held
on with the tenacity of bulldog. In
writhing around the boy brought the
other turtle in contact with his right
leg, and he, too, took hold. The garden
er forgot his anger and with the aid of
his pruning knife managed to liberate
the turtles from their hold. The mus
cles from both calves were badly LAGER

Political Notes.

This is the soberest and most sensible
Presidential campaign that this country
has witnessed since the election of James
Monroe i'll the era of good feeling, The
sobriety and freedom from noisy excite
ment with which the contest is conduct
ed is an unnistakable evidence of polit-
ical evolution and progress. The Dem
ocrats, whose appeal in behalf of Cleve-
land and tariff reform is addressed to
the calm Judgment of an intelligent peo-
pie, have good reason to rejoice over the
spirit that is manifested in the campaign
The people are thinking for themselves.

The real explanation Of such results
