THE GRADED SCHOOL.

The many inquiries concerning the reasons
for discou.inu,ng the Graded Schools for y
month at this season of the year has %ntcessi-
ta,ei 40 exuia nn;ion Of the matter that will
be final and set at rest all suruises and
rumors. Superintendent Dufie has made q
statement for publication that is amply sufh.
cieht.
He says that the school Board found that
there would not be sufficient funds to run the
school for the full session of nine months, and
that at first the intention Was to close a
month earlier but that after it was necessary
to close the school for a week on account OF
the water rising in the cellar, the board de-
cided TO close for a month at this time instead
of at the end of the session.. This decision
was DOT reached until it was found, after a
careful investigation, that the funds could
not be raised to pay the expenses of the full
session.
The closing of the school, Of course, stoppe-
for the time the salaries of all the teachers.
The teachers after consultation decided to
continue the school 90 their " responsl-
bility, during the intermission, as a private
school on their own responsibility. They
have rented two house, on lower Sumter
Street that will accommodate the entire
school, aud the class work was resumed this
morning with a comparatively large attend
ance. The action of the teachers has the
hearty approval of the School Board, and they
will endeavor to do exactly the same work as
would have been done at the Graded School.
The tuition will be 81 per month for the
lower grades, and So per month for the
higher grades. The tuition, however, ap-
plies ouly to those who are able to pay. All
who are unable to pay the tuition will be adj
mi,ted to the school and taughtfree of charge.
All parents are urged TO sand their children
to school whether they ere able TO pay the
tuition OF not, as the teachers are anxious to
have the school work go on without inter-
%ruption. A number of citizens have contri-
buted to a fund to assist in paying the ex-
peuses of the scaoel, in order that those who
are unable to pay the tuition may not be de-
prived of the advantages Of the school.
The efforts of the teachers to keep up the
school deserves the commentator and sup
port of the entire community. That they will
succeed ia continuing the regular course OF
study Without friction or delay need not be
said, for they are thoroughly familiar with
the work aud have the classes in hand. Nor
is it necessary that it be said that it is i'm
portapt to the scholars that the class work be
not interrupted, for the full session of nine
months is scarcely sufficient TO complete the
nreacribed coprse of study.

Digging for Gold.

Sometime ago mention was made OF an old
negro in Concord township, who had moved
his house and begun to dig fo7 gold at the
ins,iga,ion OF Il local ''hoodoo" doctor, who
pretended to have bad a dream in which it
was revealed that a great treasure Of gold
was to De found by digging under this
negro's house. This negro is still digging
and has even employed assistance. A gentle
men from that neighborhood stated Yesterday
that the negro has eight hands at work on
the hole, which is now about sixteen feet
square and nineteen feet deep. The negro
who started the work boards the hands he
employs on the mine and furnishes them
with a plentiful supply of dispensary. The
white people of The neighborhood have made
repeated efforts TO persuade the negro TO
desis, from his wild and foolish undertaking,
but the negro is firmly convinced that the
hoodoo doctor is a true prophet and that he
has only TO persis, il digging to secure gold
by the wagon load, and he will not hear to
reason.
Night before last some of the negroes who
do not share il The belief Of the gold hunters
flied q nail keg with old iron and slipped II
into he hole and covered it with dirt. "ha,
effect The discovery of this Eeg had on the
gold hunters has not been learned.

a Peculiar Phenomenon.

Friday afternoon about 4 o'clock one
of the most peculiar rainbows ever seen here
was visible in the heavens. 1t Was almost
directly overhead and was almost a perfect
circle around the sun. This rainbow was well
defined aud remained visible for more than a
half hour. To the northwest Of the rainbow,
WHICH filled the southwestern quarter of the
heavens, there wasa- veil dsined Fellectfes Of
the sun, that was nearly as distinct and luml-
nous as the SUI itself. There were 10 all APP
pearances two suns visible, one in the west,
sbou. As degrees above the horizon and
another Just south of west and about The
same angle above the horiZon.
a great many persons observed the uu-
usual phenomenon With surprise and
Arrangement, aud, il some instances, with
fright. Some ,imid AID superstilious per-
sons began 70 fear that the awful judgment
Day was at hand, and their knees trembled
accordingly. AS the brilliant spectrum
faded from the heavens, and the second sun
grew dim, their spirits rose aud the fright
subsidized. There are others, however, who
are satisfied that the signs in the heavens
were significant OF coming eTi!s.
