Alma Mattingly's general average for the
term was almost as good as these. This
is the second medal for Miss Sallie, who
is one tireless, Conscientious, ambitious
worker. The medals we're won by the
little folks this tune, and much merit is
theirs. Little Emma Norman stands
first in almost everything she undertakes.
This is the first time she has had oppor-

1t is but fair to say that Paul Demp-

mitted to enter contest for medals They
have been winners in the past. This
caused their being debarred the privilege
this time.

LtteraY.u NOTES.

The true story of those 218 days of suf-
tering by Greely's heroic little band of
explorers in the Arctic region has been
told by General Greedy himself, for the
first time, for the October Ladies' Home
Journal. For years General Greely has
kept an unbroken silence about his
fearful experience and that of his com
panions, as they dropped dead one by one
at his side, and it was only after the
greategt persuasion that the famous ex-
Plorer was induced to write the story.
Wilhelmina, who is to be crowned
Queen ofthe Netherlands ON September
6 next, has personally sent to Mr.. Box,
the editor The Ladies' Home Journal
himself a Hollander by birth-one of her
private portraits for publication in the
next number of his magazine. II is the
last portrait which will be taken of tho
little lady before her coronation, and will
be printed in connection with especially
prepared sketch, showing the personality
of the first Queen of Holland from every
point of view.

So far as our knowledge goes among

So far as our knowledge goes among
Democrats, whether their wings be tipped
with gold or silver, the nomination OF
Hon. John T. McGraw for Congress has
given great satisfaction. They know that
he has capacity of every desirable sort for
usefulness in Congress. He is identified
with the interests that benefit all the peo-
pie of the State and has an energy that
deos not halt at big undertakings, nor is
he unobservant of or indifferent to the
minor things that go to max e up the life
of Commonwealth people. He is
strong and eloquent on the hustings; in
private walks genial and kind and help
full; true to friends, and would be mag
unanimous to an enemy if he had one.

If John 7. McGraw isn't elected to
Congress 10 this district it will be because
it is so strongly Republican that no Dem
ocrat can hope to carry it under the most
favorable circumstances. He is at the
meridian of intellectual power, graceful
and impassioned orator, splendid or
ganizer, popular in every county, with
the widest circle of acquaintances and
friends, and everywhere in the district
his nomination has invoked the most en-.
thusiastic determination among Demo-
Gratis to elect him. It is unnecessary to
speak of his qualifications as candidate
or of his rare ability and worth as a man.
Republicans concede his merit, and in
their hearts many of them hope he will
win. They admire his sturdy character,
rounded out out, as it has been, by years
of PERSISTENT effort at self-improvement
and labor for the advancement of the in
terests of the people of the State, and will
have no embittered feelings to see him
honored by an election 10 n station which
he would fill with credit to himself aud
honor to his State Tdirmoat Ilder.
