NORMAL SCHOOL NOTES.

Although rude old Boreas has for
the last fortnight, been chasing the
mercury down about the zero point,
and while all about the town is heard
the crack of water pipes and the click,
click of the plumbers hammer and
wrench, yet all of the great family "on
the hill' are happy and about as COM
Portable as a 10 below-the -goose.egg
condition of things will permit.
Since last Saturday evening-ex-
cepting Sunday-there has been
continuous round of merriment. The
trouble began when some one-very
proboby Prof. Welsh-proposed Sat
urday afternoon, that the Faculty take
a sleigh ride. The word announced
all hands were eager for the fray.
Millville was the destination and at
A. .. m. under the careful management
of the Buckalew Bros, sixteen men,
bers Of the Faculty were gliding mer-
rily out Of the town.
Arrived at Millvile bountitul sup
per was spread and we fail to find ut
terance to the justice done it by the
generally sedate, but now most jolly
pedagogues.
We should like to mention the toasts
given at this spread. But we must
content ourselves with simply saying
that Prof. Welsh was called upon to
discuss the struggles with "Steam
Heating, and "Bloomsburg Water
Company, and the electric bells,
Prof Bakeless discussed the recently
married young man. Prof Hartline
told about "CM Fingers and 7hunbs"
Mrs. Welsh about "Old Married Won
en-. Prof Cope "the scedther", anc
thus it went round until all were com
pletely tired out from the laughter oc
casioned by the genuine wit and quain
humor of the "n,erry cre'c., they al
cried "enou9h", and prepared to make
the return tnp
But the sequel to this happy occa
sion came Monday when the fever
almost as bad as Asiatc cholera
broke out among the students. Five
great sleds were hurriedly summoned
from the town and off they jingled
each with twenty pairs Of dancing
eyes and twenty hearts as light ant
free as the keen sting of Jack Eros
was sharp and biting.
What we wanted most to say wa
to remind the good people of the tow

The cold weather of Monday ne
cessitated the closing of the schools
at Fifth street for half day. In the
afternoon the building committee
visited the building to ascertain the
cause of not sufficient heat. 1t may
be possible that the new heating sys-
tenn does not do the work intended ;
if not the trouble will be corrected.
Since it was found that the rooms
heated by steam the thermometer reg
istered as low as in the other rooms,
it seems that the new system is doing
as we'll as the old and that the re-
medy must be more fuel.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 1t.-Night sessions In
congress are always interesting and some
times exciting. Last weeks scenes in the
senate proved no exception to the rule. The
tclegraphic dispatches have already told
you of the tension, the excitement, the
anxiety, the expectancy of great things
which might happen at any moment, the
hustling for quorum, the frequent visits
OF senators to the restaurant down stairs,
the yawning, the lack of dignity the air Of
grim determination worn by the silver mi
nority, the clouds of tobacco smoke issuing
from the cloakrooms' doors, the scenes in
committee rooms, where grave and rever-
end senators stretched out in the embrace
OF slumber with their collars and neckties
soosened and their boots off, and all the in
cidents and occurrences of that memorable
occasion.
a Night of Disgrace.
Fortunately there was little intoxication
Two or three senators were visibly under
The influence Of strong drink, but no one
dlsgraced himself. 1t has been otherwise
on other similar occasions There is some
