School Entertainment.

As Benson refuses to come up To-
the return contest with our higl
school, it is proposed to bring GU
contestants into the closing exercises
of our schools on Friday evening, thu
9th inst, at Court House hall. The
program will be filled out by exercises
from all of tho schools, consisting OF
vocal and instrumental music, recita-
tons, etc. 1t will, beyond all doubt,
be very interesting entertainment,
and it is hoped that our people will
generally be present.
Diplomas will be presented to
Nellie and Archie Young, who have
completed the three years course,
Rebecca Colyer will remain another
year to finish the full four years
course. Nellie and Archie are think
ing of returning for another year and
exchanging this diploma for that OF
the full four years. They will do SO
if they can make the necessary ar
engagements.
The graduates prefer not to take
part in the program.
Admission, Is cents; proceeds to be
applied to school purposes.

a Convict on the Tramp,

Many years ago. in one of the .cantons of
Switzerland, q murderer was sentenced to
death, and as the said canton had no hang
man of it's own the authorities communi-
Gated with the executioner of the adjoin-
ing state, and asked him how much he
charged The price demanded for the exc
cution of the culprit was 200 forms, which
the magistrates considered too high, and
offered to pay him 200 francs instead. This
offer was fatty refused by the hangman.
A sitting of the magistrates was held at
which the following resolution was passed:
1--WE will give the convict 100 francs and
set him at liberty so that he may go and
get hanged where he likes. n--Vademecum
