ticed that something about her was creating
much merriment among the pupils. She es-
pied piece of paper circulating about from
pupil to pupil that evidently was the direct
cause of the amusement. She captured it,
and found it contained a poem written by
Doxsee upon Miss Patton s Twisted Psyche. .
She blushed, and putting her hand TO her
head, found that her ''back hair had slipped
out of place. Then bursting into tears, she
left the room.
Later the indignant young woman visited
Principal Hunt and demanded the immedi-
ate expulsion of DoXsee. The principal con-
cluded it would be better to leave the matter
to the board of education. complaint
against the young man was formulated and
sent to the board. A special meeting of the
board was called for, when Miss Patton and
DoXsee will be heard regarding the trouble.
The nature Of the poem, except as indicated
by its title, is withheld by the members of the
board

Writes About His Trip.

Rtv. DIR L Ill. Prit chard, of Oh arlotte,
Writes About His Trip.
Rev. DR.. Thomas II. Pritchard, of
Charlotte, who delivered the Bacca-
laureate sermon before the Academy
graduating class on Sunday morning,
May 9th, writes Interestingly of his
trip and the old institution, in Sum
days Observer. He says:
The devotion of this small band of
Moravian Christians to the cause of
misSionS-for they have been pre-emi-
nent for hundred and fifty years in
zeal, sacrifice and success in winning
the heather to Christ-had long COM
manded my respect and admiration,
but recent sojourn among them as
guest of their famous academy, has
heightened my appreciation of their
excellence and won my affectionate
esteem. 1t is not, however, of this
interesting people, but of some pecul-
iaritieS of their school | propose to
write just now.
Their grounds are unusually large,
comprising many acres, covered with
primeval forests, which are laid off in
to walks and play grounds, suitable
for young ladies, with lakes, flowers,
etc. Then the buildings are numer-
Gus, ample and admirably arranged
for school purposes. A single feature
is that of dividing the girls up into
families of ten or dozen, not &C
cOrding to scholarship but age, dispo-
sition and moral needs. These fami-
lies each have a sitting room of their
own, a sleeping alcOve, all being in
the same apartment. but each with a
separate bed. Each family is provided
with two teachers, one Of whom is
with them night and day.
Still a third remarkable usage Is
that they are not allowed to engage in
general conversations while at meals.
The principal says this is to prevent
the waste of nervous force. The SEN
iors have adopted the costume of the
Oxford gown and cap, which is the
usage, believe, of quite a number of
North. The principal says it is much
more economical, and adds to the
morals of the class. Another thing
for which this school is celebrated is
the writing and spelling of its stu
dents. They are not taught great,
sprawliDg hand, big enough for Go
Hath of Gath, but neat, round, DELI
cate hand, such as our grandmOthers
wrote. The moral and religious at
moSphere of the place is most excel
lent, and though the principal, the
pastor and physician of the school,
with most of the teachers, are Mora
vians, they are careful that no special
sectarian influence is brought to bear
upon the pupils, and no student, not
belonging to a Moravian family, is
permitted to join that church while at
school there. The patronage en-
braces almost every State in the UE-
ion and is large, the number of ma
triculates last term being 345, and the
graduating class reached the high
number of 81
1t gives me pleasure to acknowledge

cipal Clewell, Bishop Rondthaler, DR..
BahnSon and Mr.. John Fries. May

kltchtn. the Convert, Makes Tame
Speech, and Skinner Closes.
WILSON, N. c., June To-day has
been red-letter day for the Populists
of Wilson and adjoining counties.
Nearly a thousand people met here to
hear the oracles of that party, Presi-
dent Butler, Captain w. III. Kitchin.
Colonel Harry Skinner. Butler led
off, and made short speech, in which
he said: II told you So" He said
that he told the people two years ago
what the Democrats would do, and
they have done so; he prided himself
upon his excellence as prophet.
Captain Kitchin, the recent convert,
followed. He gave a rehash of his
old red-hot-b,ood-and- Demo-
cratic speech that he used to make
were Objectionable to his new friends
left out, as it were. The Captain was
not so bold and not so heroic as he
used to be, when marching under the
uncomprOmising Democratic ban
ner. His speech bore kind of apollo
getic tone.
Colonel Skinner closed the day with
a speech that shot over the heads of
the crowd. He talked of Greece and
Rome, with the pyramids of Egypt
thrown in. One third of the crowd
were negroes, and, of course, they ap-
preciated his classic utterances. The
crowd was restless throughout, and
the speakers could not hold their at
tention. Fully a third of the people
present were straight Democrats, and
Wilson county is considered the
stronghold of Populism.

DEMOCRATS CONFIDENT.
New Hope and Strong Determination
Among the Leaders.

New Hope and Strong Determination
Among the Leaders.
Washington Cor. North Carolinian.l
The feeling here among Democrats
is much better than it has been since
last September. No one who has not
been in Washington constantly can
begin to appreciate the strained rela-
tions that have subsisted between the
Democrats here, both in and out of
Congress. There. have been times
when this bitterness was such as to
threaten permanent division in the
party, and wise men feared that we
had come Ito the parting of the
ways" During the tendency of this
bitter feeling every leader, as well as
every humble Democrat, felt that the
success Of the party this fall was we'll
nigh hopeless. Men grew desperate
and with their desperation some of
them grew careless of their Obliga-
tions. But latterly, with the assur-
ance that the tariff bill will soon be-
come a law, and the fact that the eX-
penditures for pensions have been de-
creased some SIS, 900, 900 to $40, 900, 900,
that there is no Federal election law
on the books to harraSs the citizen,
and that other legislation promising
relief to the people and assured better
times, there has come new spirit
over the party and there is something
of the old esprit de corps of the old
guard.
