The Committee on Charitable
Institutions has submitted its report
to the Legislature, from which the
BULLETIN reproduces the following
extract in regard to the Western
Hospital: cat the Western Hos
pital for the Insane, the committee
found everything in good condition.
The farm attached to the institution
is we'll cultivated and furnishes a
good part of the necessaries of life
used as the hospital. The appropri
ations made by the last Legislature,
for improvements at this hospital,
were judiciously used for that pur-
pose. The sum of $4,000 appro-
priated for a cOlored department,
was used in constructing a building,
which is nearly complete, except
plastering the inside walls. The
committee recommends that no fur
ther appropriation be made for i'm
proving this building. The books,
accounts and vouchers were examin-
ed and found to be correct. The
amount received by the treasurer
from all sources from December,
1894, to December, 1895, was $117,-
375.76 and the expenditures during
that time was 1928, O44.72, showing
an overdraft of SIS, 668. 90, which
was due to the failure to receive
from the Comptroller the warrant
for December, 1896" 1t will be
seen from the above report that the
committee recommends no further
appropriation for the improvement
of the colored annex, which is com.
plete, save plastering the inner walls.
and only a small sum is necessary
for that purpose. That an appro
priation will be eventually made tc

TEACHERS INSTITUTE.
(CON1'RIBUTED.)

A teachers institute was held at
Grand Junction, on March 81. A
goodlY number of teachers were
present.
Mr.. L. E. Wood spoke on Pri-
mary Geography.
Mr.. J. G. Watson, on Map Draw
ing.
Mr., w. R. Lewellyn, on Math-
ematical Geography.
Misses Fannie Stuart and Emma
Davenport read papers on Primary
reading.
Mr.. J. t. Hill spoke on Phenom-
email Geography.
All these were good, and some of
them were of high order of excel
lence. At the risk of being invidi-
Gus, we will say that we liked Miss
Stuart's paper. 1t was brief, to the
point and clear.
Mr.. Hills talk was good; it was
really profound and mastery dis
cussion.
Just before IL M, Mr.. n. Il.
Smart delivered a speech of well
come. lie assured the teachers
that Grand Junction had thrown
wide open her doors to them-that
they were welcome to the hearts and
homes Of the people. He closed by
saying that the dinner pots were
waiting, and then felicitously OBJ
served, ''that the man with the
longest pole would get the persim-
mon" The institute then adjourn
ed for dinner. At this time the
dinner tables bore evidence of the
taste of the ladies-half an hour
later the same tables bore evidence
of the taste Of the teachers. Both
were good.
The next institute will be held at
Whiteville on the last Saturday OF
April.
Mr.. Russell, the superintendent,
is doing coed work.

If reports be true, we are expect
ing to hear ''the merry peal of mar
riage bells ring softly on the soft
spring air" ere many more weeks
have sped by.
We note with pleasure the in
creased interest that is being taken
in the BULLETIN by communications
from different parts of the county.
In looking through an old news
paper the other day, we came across
the following: ''The year 1916
was the year without a summer.
Frost occurred every month in the
year 1916. Ice formed a half inch
thick in May. Snow fell to the
depth of three inches in New York,
and also in Massachusetts, in June.
Ice was formed of the thickness of
common window glass throughout
New FORK on the 5th day of July.
Indian corn was so frozen that the
greater part was cut in August and
dried for fodder, and the farmers
supplied themselves from the corn
produced in 1915 for the seeding of
the spring of 1917" Now, if the
above really occurred, we do not re-
member of ever having seen or
heard it mentioned any where be-
fore. We would like very much to
know whether it really did or not,
and if SO, whether it reached this
far south or not. Perhaps some of
the older readers of the BULLETIN
may remember the year, or else may
have heard their parents or some
one speak of it. If SO, we will be
glad to hear from them through the
BULLETIN.
