WASHINGTON LETTER.
From Our Regular Correspondent.
WASHINGTON, D. c.. Sept. 10. 1897.


WASHINGTON, D. c., Sept. 10. 1897.
The return of Consul General
Lee caused a rumor that some
decisive action regarding Cuba
was about to be taken by this
government to be industriously
circulated around Washington,
But Gen. Lee, who has learned to
talk Spanish and grown diplo-
matte, says he knows of nothing
important in that connection and
that he is merely home on an
ordinary thirty-day leave of abb
sence. When asked whether he
expected to return to Cuba at the
expiration of the thirty days,
Gen. Lee avoided direct answer.
Secretary Sherman stated in the
most positive terms that there is
nothing of public Importance con-
nected with Gen. Lees return to
the United States. He also says
that thereport cabled from Madrid
that Gen. :Woodford had made a
proposition on behalf of this gov
ernmel1t to purchase Cuba from
Spain was without the slightest
foundation.
Senators Foraker, Harris of
Kansas, and Stewart, composing
the subcommittee of the senate
committee on Pacific Railroads,
have hesen in Washington this

make the editor of this paper be-

would knowingly make report
that would falsely charge any
public officer with embezzlement

Ger, and in view of the report
recently made public by the state
examiner it is evident that Mr..

Teachers Institute.

The teachers convened at the
Pryor Institute, pursuant to order
on Saturday morning, Oct. 9th.
Devotional exercises were cons
Quoted by Prof Hunter, after
which the general business of the
Institute was taken up.
A motion was made by Prof.
Hunter to revive the Teachers
Reading Circle, an organization in
to which the teachers had hereto
fore been formed.
The motion was carried and
Prot. Hunter was elected President
aud Miss Vanderwerker, Sec, and
Treasurer of the Reading Circle.
Pryor Institute was made the
permanent place of meeting and it
was decided that the subject of
con versation at the next meeting
should be Natural Philosophy"
The teachers were then enter
tanned with a pleasant and able ad-
dress on the subject of education by
Prot. Thomas Geary,
Next followed Prof. Moore
who gave US some good thoughts
on the subject of How to Read
and Speak Well"
Next in order on the program
was the subject of "Physiology"
which was discussed by Prof, W.
H. Cheney. He showed himself
thoroughly conversant with the
subject.
The teachers of the county were
not all present but we feel sure
that all who were, had no reason
to regret it but on the contrary
were very materially benefited,
We expect good results from the
Reading Circle and hope all the
teachers will give it their hearty
support.
The afternoon meeting was short
and soon adjourned.
