Prof. HowelI~- Happy Speech and
Happy Response--The Watch Is a
Very Handsome One, Beautifully En-
graveds
Yesterday afternoon at $50 o'clock, at

eigh School Board and the teachers of
the public schools, and few friends of
the retiring Superintendent, Prof. Z. 7.

been purchased by the teachers and
members of the Board to present to the
retiring Superintendent who is held by
them in the highest regard and esteem.
Mr.. N. B. Broughton presided and IN
PRODUCED Mr.. Logan d. Howell, the new
Superintendent; who, with the watch IN

something to say to you. They wish first
to congratulate you upon entering a
broader field of usefulness. They re-
joice in all your successes and advance
ments. 1t is gratifying to them that the
work of their teacher and friend IS
known and appreciated abroad. At the
same time they would remind you that
no one can know your worth better, or
value your services more highly than
your own home folks. And it is with
reluctance they bid you goodbye, and
see You leave Raleigh and North Caro-
limo.
Indeed, though their eyes may no
longer be upon you, the teachers of the
Raleigh schools, and the trustees intend
that you shall be always at least acatcIted
by them. 1t is to accomplish this pleas
ant purpose that we are met here this
afternoon; and they have conferred upon
me the favor and the honor of being
their spokesman in presenting to you
this watch as souvenir of their affec-
ton and esteem.

A Card.

The Opera-housem management have said that they will give Pine Bluff the best amusements that 1t is pos sible to bring here, and in order to onvince our people that we mean what we say we will bring to the Opera-house on Monday night, De- eember 30, one of the greatest attrac- tions now on the American stage the peerless Corinne and the famous Kimball Opera Comique organiza- tion. numbering in all 60 people. II there is any one endowed with com mon, everyday sense, who has not heard of this wonderful artist and this great company, we have yet to hear their name. It'snot our intention to make money out of this special engagement, for so great are the ex- penses that if the Opera-house be packed both at the matinee and night performance. thereceipts would not cover the outlay. Simply and only to show what we are capable of doing and that our intentions are good, is our purpose in presenting Corinne to a Pine Bluff audience. 1t now remains to be seen whether our people, will appreciate this enterprise. One thing is certain, and that is there never has been nor will there be again, for long time, such an attraction in this Opera-house. This class of combinations play, as rule only in large cities, except wher special inducements are held out tt them as on this occasion. The com pany goes direct from here to Den yer, Col.

spicuous and attractive successes of the season. It is conceded by musical critics that Corinne is one of the finest lady mandolin soloists in the United States. She is an accom- plished musician and has made the mandolin study. Aside from Corinne's own performance, there is a wealth of attractions in 'Hendrick Hudson" There are original and amusing specialties, and every cos tune and all the scenery for this pro- duction were expressly made for this season. No advance in price for the night performance. Matinee prices, 30 and 75 cents.

An Unlocked For Discovery on a Sandy

 Anastasia island has water to burn, and in any quantity, and at all times. some months ago Mir J. D. Dowd thought that he would like cottage by the oceans shore, and he procured a site near Jack mound on the island Near by there was an artesian we'll bored by the old South Beach company, but owing to its gaseous fumes the wa terwas refused by tho thirsty. It is also recalled that several years ago the little children spat the water out, saying, It's whisky, when picnic was giv- en there. The we'll has remained cover ed over ever since.
 With Mir. Dowd came also a prospect or from Niagara Falls. He smelled the water tasted it, as did his friend Dowd, but said nothing. Meanwhile some of the water was sent to Washington for analysis, and the chemists there asked II ehe water was from Niagara's burn Ing we'll, as it contained all the ingre- alehts but one. This one lies in the we'll on Anastasia island.
 MT Dowd has laid pipe from the Well' which he bought. to his cottage, where he has erected small house to hoid the reservoir into which he lets the water How, and then lights it. It burns at ms pleasure and is extinguished by an extlnsuisher made large enough to cover the reservoir.

AT THE TOPEKA INSANE ASYLUM.


Topeka, Kas., Dec. 25.-(special.) one Of
the most remarkable Christmas celebra-
tions ever held in all this Christian land
was that given at the Topeka insane asy-
lum last night under the direction Of the
superintendent and other officials.
More than 400 OF the patients We're mar
shaled into the vast amusement hall OF the
institution, and the joyous acclaim with
which tho several features Of the entertain
mcnt was greeted could but impress the
chance visitor with the thought that there
is either something akin TO childhood in
insanity, or else the terrible maady for
ories of youth and innocence.
The entertainment was prepared Just as
partment of q modern Sunday school. Mu-
sic was made by the asylum band. pieces
songs sung, jokes cracked and that good
old comedy Box ana Cox placed upon
the stage just as every reader of the Jour
nal has seen ii over and over. The pa
tents applauded at the right time and
seemed TO understand all that was taking
place.
