in the sense tha. would warrant the
state department in acting. However.
the navy department was fully compe-
tent 10 take such action as the case
seemed TO require. With this statement
the ambassador was content for the
time at least, and will doubtless await
a reasonable length of time upon the
navy department There are semi-official
intimations that the ambassador will
not so much concern himself with the
course of Captain Coshlan as with the
course Of the United States in dealing
with Coghlan. The German ambassa-
dor stated that the poem recited by
Captain Coghlan was "too nasty to be
noticed"
Made . Second Call.
The German ambassador appeared al
the state department at noon for the
purpose of making further representa-
tions to Secretary Hay touching the
conduct of Captain Coghlan. SO that the
utterances of Captain Coghlan at the
Army and Navy club were regarded as
an additional offense. AN effort was
made to ascertain whether the United
State government intended to do any
thing officially in view of subsequent
developemen;s in the case.
Secretary Hay has not changed his
position in any degree. He deprecated
the lack of tact and the bad ta>t,
shown by Captain Coghlan and he did
not hesitate to let that be known to tn,
German ambassador. But he still held
that the case was one that required
treatment by methods of navaldiscipline
only and with which the state depart.
ment could not concern itself.

character of their methods and in the
qualifications and attainments of their
instructors. With this object in view,
especial attention has beer given 70 the
work in both the collegiate and primary
departments, and such new instructors
have been employed as shall, we trust,
add greatly to the general efficiency or
the corps, and 10 the thorough equipment
Of the scholars. In the senior department,
Mr. b. Wofford Wait. of South Caro-
lima, has been employed. He Will be IN
charge of Senior English, English Iitera-
ture. Natural Sciences. and Mental ana
Moral Philosophy. The principal, being
thus relieved of q portion OF his usual
work. will be enabled TO give regular
daily attention TO the work ana manage

English Literature in Columbia univer-
sity. New York city. Mr.. Wait has had
experience in teaching, and is well ac-
quainted with labor atory work in physics
and chemistry. The sciences Will CON
tinue to be taught with textbooks, lee
lures. and full use of apparatus.
Realizing the great importance 70 pupil

It is the purpose of the principals TO en-
large the opportunities OF this depart

Miss Virginia Lee Patteson, young
lady thoroughly qualified by training ana

After recognizing Jester among n group
Of prisoners. Mr.. Gates asked him; "Do
YOU not remember my transferring you

brother" Jester made no response. HIS
head bent further forward, his face be-
gan working convulsively. and then he
broke down and began TO weep. In a

forgotten.
Don't YOU think it is time" asked Mr.
Gates. FOR you to repent OF the foul
deed you committed when you took the
life Of my brother. then cut hole I'm

riot between the white and negro miners
at the ore-mines. near Cardiff, in Jeffer-

Dill and Adam Samuels. Wounded: Ru-
dolph Williams and George Thomas The

Winchester rifles. 4 white man passing
along the road was held up, and besides
being abused was roughly handled. This
news soon spread, and an armed body
Of white miners moved toward the hoi-
low. 1t is supposed that they went around
by Il circuitous route in the noun
tains. and came upon the negroes uneX-
pectedly. Ellis, the ring-leader. armed
with a rifle and a Colts revolver, fell
at the first volley. 4 rifle bullet did the
work. There was another volley, and the
four other negroes fell. Jim Dill and

while being removed TO a negro house.
George Thomas was shot through the
abdomen with Il Winchester. He is not
expected to recover. Rudolph Williams

selves 10 prevent his capture. Both sides
We're aroused. and only the timely arrival
Of "a Sherjif's posse prevented an outbreak
