is rapidly rising in public favor, and Is.
destined to be one OF the greatest or the
southern female schools. 1t has 2 re-
markable history. 1t was founded by
Rev. Robert Burwell. ID. d., in the year
1897, the year in which its present prin-
cipal was born, and IL has had only two
principals in the fifty-nine years OF It's
existence. 1t has never lost a pupil by
death The declining health OF DR. Bur
well induced him. at the age OF 80 years,
to give up the school in the year 1890.
His interests were then purchased by MIR.
James Dnwidde, a Master OF Arts OF
the University of Virginia, and teacher
of more than twenty years experience.
He Immediately introduced the Univer-
sity OF Virginia methods into the school,
adapting them to the most advanced
courses in female education. The result
has been wonderfully successful, and II
is probable that there is not another
school doing such work for young ladies'
In the whole South. Its standard is nigh
in every department of work. For ex-
ample. for it's diploma In music, II re-
qulres the passing of examinations pre-
scrlbed by the American College or Musl-
clans In it's literary, SCIENTIFIC, ana
linguistic work It stands on the level OF
Davidson College and Hampden-Sidney
The following schedule will show the
different branches OF study, and the num-
Der of teachers in each department: Men
tai and moral philosophy and evidences
OF Christianity, /; mathematics ana
sciences. 3: English literature and criu-
cism. 2; chemistry and physics, 1, Latin
and Greek, L. French and German. /;
music-instrumental. piano, organ, violin
and vocal. 6; fine arts drawing. painting
in water-colors and oil, modelling, &c.'
2: physical culture and elocution, ?; book
keeping, 1; stenography and typewritlng'
1: primary department. 2
The faculty is an exceptionally strong
one The present principal, Mr.. james
Dinwiddie. graduated at the University OF
Virginia in June, 1861. with the degree OF
Master of Arts. and Immediately entered
the army He was first lieutenant or
the Charlottesville Artillery Eighth Brl-
gade. Ewelrs Division. Jackson's Corps,
Army OF Northern Virginia. He was
afterwards promoted 10 captain of artil-
Ierv. and assigned to ordnance duty, in
command Of the ordnance depot, Rich
mond. Va. and in charge of contracts
and supplies for the Army Of Northern
Virginia. The same executive ability
which he displayed so signally in Rich
mond has been as signally in the force
and energy of administration OF this
model female institute.

ANIMAL SUSPENSION TINE.
from and steel-Milis and Glass
Factories Closed.

PITTSBURG, PA, June S0-Annuai
suspension-time is at hand in the iron,
steel. and glass industries of the coun-
try. and for the next few weeks
many thousands of men will be idle. Inc
1S96-'97 wage-scale of the Amalgamated
Association of Iron and Steel-Worker5
win go into effect at midnight tonight.
Several manufacturers in the Pittsburg
district have signified their intention OF
operating under the new scale, subject
10 conference changes. Notwithstanding
the fact that the IRON and sheet-steel-
workers scale was signed last night. many
of the mills will close temporarily for ne
cessary repairs. Should the tin-mills
close tonight, as Is expected, about
eight thousand men in that department
will be in idleness until wage settlement
is reached.
The shutdown will be felt more particu-
larry In the Mahoning Valley. where
the settlement OF the wage question still
hangs fire. The next conference In the
Mahoning district will be held July 9th.
The manufacturers stand against the To-
cent per ton advance demanded for pud-
ding iron Is the only stumbling block TO
an agreement.
With few exceptions, all fires" in the
glass factories throughout the country Will
be extinguished to-day. The shut-dowS VIII
last two months or more. and will affect
many thousands OF workers. The work
ers' wage conventions begin next week.
