LEWIS ACADEMY NOTES

Modern Languages.
Lewis Acadmemy is justly proud of its
work in Modern Languagef Those who
complete the prescribed coarse in Ger
man and French find themselves in adj
vance of the work required for enterance
to college.
The first year is given to the study of
the grammer, supplemented by easy read
ing and composition. Thus, the student
acquires a knowledge of the forms of the
| language, at the same time making a
practical application of them. Two years
in German, and one in French, are given
to the reading of classic authors. In Ger
! man, Schiller's "Wiuhelm Tell and Less
ing's ''Minna Won Barnhelm" are read the
second year; Gothe's 'ermann ind Dor
othea" and Schiller's Maria Stuart are
read the third year. In French, selections
are read from 1udovic Halevy, Moliere
Chateaubriand. and Beaumarchais, begin
ing in the first. and continuing through
| the second year. Composition is required
throughout the course.
The professor at the head of this de-
partment, Notwithstanding this is her
first year in the Acadefhy, has already
won the ESTEEM of the entire school, and
has proven htr ability TO maintain a high
standard of work Her methods lead the
pupil to attain the most accurate and
spirited results in translations.

 About a year ago John Jordan. ac- i ccmpanied by his wife and daughter arrived in Clifton to locate. says the i Copper Era. John, who is hard working, industrious citizen, found em- ployment with the A. C. company, and is at present employed as a skinner at the cOnverters, and fs rorw on the night shift. Jack Greenwood. who now works as carpenter for the com
 pany, is a distant relative of John 5 and came to Clifton, broke sometim
 after Johns arrival John did all in
 his power for Greenwood in the way of
 loaning him money to keep body and
 soul together, and also entertained him
 at his home. John came home one
 evening few days ago while on day
 shift, fer his supper, and his little
 daughter, aged , years, told him that
 she and mamma and Mir Greenwood
 had been to the Chinese gardens all
 day. This put a bug in Johns ear.
 and last Sunday night he procured a
 man to take his place at the convert
 CTS. About 10 o'clock he went home
 and found the door of his heretofore
 happy home locked, which was an un- usual thing, SC says John. He called
 to his wife to open the door. and as soon as she recognized her husbands voice, cried out: My GCdi I can 't!'' John then crawled through an open window and at the same time heard d pistol click. He kept right on, how ever, and Tt the lamp. and there be- fore him, in his night clothes, stood Greenwood the destroyer of his hcme and the man whom he had treated like he would a brother, pistol in hand, shaking like an aspen leaf John was between the front window and door and Greenwood backed into the fitch- en, which is cnly partly finished with no exit. Greenwood could not run and did not shoot. John was unarmed and persuaded Greenwood to lay the pistol down, as he was too cowardly to use it. John then told him that he must take his wife and care for her; that if he did not he must suffer dire consequences. John then took his lit tie girl and left the house. after telling Greenwood to vacats his premises by M-nday night. John has found a good home for his little daughter, and Greenwood and Mrs. Jordan have quar- ters elsewhere in the city.

A SHOOTING SCRAPE.
Graham County AFexicans Stirring Up
 Trouble.

Graham County Mexicans Stirring Up
 Trouble
 For some time past the road between Clifton and Gro has been neglected un- til at certain points it has become i'm passable fer loaded teams This being the state Of affairs people with vehicles going up the river from Clifton have lately been in the habit of turning of the main read just above the A. C company dam, and. by crossing the rivci- twice, strike ths m1in road again in the vicinity of Dell NJ Potter's house. A Mexican named Pedro Lli- cerO oWIS-Cr pretendS to OWn-the sand bar necessary to be crossed in gO- ing that way, and strsnuodsly objects to people going by that cut off, and upon several occasions lately trouble has been narrowly averted, says the Copper Era.
 On Monday afternoon Nicholas Cole was coming down with load of lime. and there being no oth5r way of get ting to Clifton he concluded to drive down and endeav0r to effecs some ar rangement with LucerO whereby he might be able to cTc.ss the sand bar in peace. When he arrived at the sec ond crossing Of the river he found on the bank a stake driven into the ground on each side of the road and wire stretched across, with Lucero p5anding on enc side of the road and another Mexican named Rj3s on the other side. When Cole drove up to the wire he stepped his team, when in stantly Rios rushed up to the wagon and, thrusting a gun almost into Coles face, fired. without hitting him, however. Cole instantly sprang from the wagon and pulled his gun. but his clothing becoming entangled in 3 loose iron of the seat he was a little slow in getting to work. Rios. who in the mT3ntime had taken shelter in the brush. of which the river is lined at that pCLrt. shot at Ccle again. break ing his right leg just below the knee; then followed a fusilade. both parties emptying their siX-shoOters, C9le wOunding his adversary in the right leg abOve the knee. In the meantime LUcero rushed to his house about three hundred yards distant and came cut with a Winchester, loading the magazine as he came When within about fifty yards of Cole he took deIib- crate aim and shot. and, as Cole ex- pressed it. the bullet made his ear jingle. That was the last Of the shC0t- irg. Tn a short time other parties were of the ground. the officers were sent for and the MeXicans were placed | under arrest
