Mt. Zion Notes.

On Friday, March Sd, many patrons
and friends of the Mt. Zion school as
sembled at the school house at 9:3Oa.m
to hear the children recite their clos
ing exercises. The exercises were
opened with singing and prayer. Oral
and written examination of pupils
showed marked improvements. Such
plays as "The Dolls Hospital" "Play-
ing School" and others too numerous
to mention here, were finely rendered.
The people brought along well filed
baskets, the contents of which were
spread on the long table near the
church. All were invited to eat of the
nice things the Mt. Zion folks know so
well how to prepare, and there were
taken up of the fragments several
baskets full.
Prof. Germany thanked the patrons
for their superior kindness to him
while teaching, and said the pupils of
Mt. Zion were among the best he ever
taught. Mr.. Germany received many
invitations to apply for the next
school, but as that is so far off he
could not give any definite answer,
The people expressed themselves as
delighted with the days entertain
ment. UNCLE Bon.

 Poughkeepsie Special Chicago Chron- fcle: Alexander De Witt, who lived in this city, practically upon the bounty of his friends, for many years, died 2 week ago at the age of 90 years, and in his will, which has just been filed fn the office of Surrogate Dorland, of Duchess county, shows that he leaves an estate of $40,000 in excellent secur- ities. The old man wore clothes given to him by pitying friends and lived with charitable acquaintance, Edwin c. Southwiek, on Main street. He had several nephews and nieces in various parts of the country, but in his sup posed poverty and obscurity he never heard from any of them, except one. This was nephew, Amos Harrison, of Tonawanda, N. T., who visited the old man once a year and tried to better his condition. He once sent De Witt S15, with which to buy suit of clothes. It was a good investment, for Mr. liar rison is left about $39, ,000 of the estate. The old man had another nephew, resident of Indiana, who visited him few years ago, and afterward De Witt learned that his relative had endeav- ored to learn at the banks if his appar- ently poverty-stricken uncle had any money. This nephew is left $1O0 legacy in the will

An African Chiefs Umbrella.

An African chiefs umbrella is of greater importance than many people suppose. Apart from it's enormous size, its loss in battle more than equals the loss of a standard of European commander. Some of the umbrellas are of prodigious dimensions, being no less than 9 feet in diameter, with ribs 12 feet 6 inches long.
