doing much damage to the crops set
out. There is considerable complaint
of corn not coming up, and many have
planted the second time. So much

fields to become very weedy. The

self with credit. The Graded School
is generally looked upon as the poor
peoples school, the object of which is
to impart barely enough knowledge
that the pupil may understand and be
understood. Hence it is that men
who are called great and who have
achieved fame by persistent effort in
biographical sketches are referred to
as having attended the common
schools, and his superior attainments
have been the result of continued
delving. Not SO with the Mt. Ster-
ling Graded School. Its course
has broad foundation for collegi- |
ate education, in fact, when the course
of this institution has been completed
a pupil is fitted for any of life's avo-
cations, and only professionals are in
need of additional training. 1t will
be remembered that this school few
years ago was only school by name,
and never did it have real begin
ming until Mrs. w. F. Hibler assumed
its SUPPLEMENTARY. Now they
have corps of eight teachers, beside
The principal, and the course is as
Primary grades are instructed in
spelling, writing, numbers
and occasional oral lessons in hygiene,
botany, language lessons and ethics.
The intermediate grades, or those
finishing the common school course,
have, in addition to the primary
geography, history and gram
mar.
The High School course begins with
the study of algebra, higher arithme-
tic, physiology, Latin, American liter
allure, rhetoric and easy experiments
in physics. The second year the
High School course embraces algebra,
geometry, English literature, botany,
and physical geography.
The studies prescribed for the Ad-
Vanced Classes are geometry, Latin,
physical zoology and universal litera-
.ure.
In after years, unless other arrange
nents can be made there will be no
more graduates. Only certificates
will be given, and they to those fin

A River of Flame.

A Bethany, w. Va. special to the
Pittsburg Chronicle Telegraph says:
Some miles above here, IN Pennsyl-
yania, near the source of Buffalo
creek, u gusher oil well has been
opened up. Great quantities of oil
have been coming down the creek
since last Sunday night The stu
dents here could not endure the idea
of such waste of fuel, and the oil
was set afirs Monday night at $50
O'Clock. The result was wonderful
and beyond the highest anticipa-
tions. The burning oil spread over
the entire width of the current, leav-
ing in its train a sheet Of flame nearly
seventy feet high.
1t was not long until Bethany was
trembling in a s.lnl-clrcle OF hame.
| Within an hour the creek looked
like a serpent Of FIRE nesrl y two miles
long. The illumination would have
been magnificent had it not been for
the dense volume of smoke, which
almost suffocated the people OF
Bethany. By the close Of the second
hour every road was blockaded with
wagons and buggies containing
people who had come in for miles TO
see the strange Are upon the waters,
and thousands of spectators were
upon the hilltoPs
Trembling lips began to whisper,
when will this end - or What will
come Of - No one could tell. the
fourth hour arrived, but the fires
fury increased until "a hours had
elapsed, when the fiames died out.
, Yet in all the damages were very
small. The Bethany College students
seemed to enjoy the excitement, es-
pecially when the danger WAS over.
| The water in the creek was nearly
boiling when the fire was gone, and
after it had sufficiently cooled, ovOr a
hundred students and part Of the
| faculty went bathing.

Mann Printz. a well-known citizen
of Page county. Va, left his home,
two miles from Luray, Va, on Thurs.
day to drag logs from the top of the
mountain. He did not return home
and nothing was heard from him till
about 10 o'clock Friday night, when
one OF the four horses he had with
him came to neighbor's. A party
at once went in search OF him and
near the top of the mountain his dead
body was found. Near by was the
log that had rolled over him and TO
it was hitched the mule with which
he had been dragging it. His body
was badly mangled, the log, heavy
dead pine, having passed over him
and dragging him some distance
down the side of the mountain. His
body and team remained in the
mountain more than two days.
