NINETY AND NINE.

There were ninety and nine that safely lay
In the shelter ofthe fold,
But one was out on the hills away.
Far off from the gates OF gold
Away on the mountains wild and bare.
Away from the tender Shepherds care.
Lord, Thou hast here Thy ninety and nine.
Are they not enough for thee2"
But the Shepherd made answer: "Tis OF mine
And has wandered away from me:
And although the road be rough and steep,
60 to the desert to find my sheep,
But none Of the ransomed ever knew
How deep were the waters crossed;
Nor how dark was the right that the Lord pass.

Sick aud helpless, and ready to die.
Lord, whence are those blood-drops all the way
That mark out the mountains traek,p

IRE the Shepherd could bring him back
Lord whence are Thy hands so rent and torup'
They are pierced tonight by many a thorn"
But all through the mou ntains, thunder riveu.

The hard things of life will be softened ;
the evil things and unkind things will
lose their power to hurt In every re-

We have just received the announce
mcnt of the Wilson County Normal
Institute. The institute will open in
Fredonia on Monday, May q, and con-
tinue six weeks. A very competent
corps of instructors has been secured
and there can be no doubt of che great
benefit to be derived by attending the
sessions Of this institute. The facts
are teacher should lie ashamed to
apply for school in Kansas without
having attended the county normal.
We hope schoolbOards will adopt
the plan this fall of asking every an
plicant for place, if he attended the
summer institute. If he says no. and
has no lawful excuse that should end
negotiations. We would most heartily
commend Superintendent Perry for
his enterprise In holding a six weeks
course this year, Twice the amount
OF earnest work can be got out OF a
six weeks session that can be from the
four weeks course
We predict for the Wilson County
Institute this year the largest attend
ance in the history OF the county and
the most good practical school work.

Sunday morning, a short time be

crash of thunder that startled the in
habitants Of Chanute allover the city.
In houses where there were tele-
phones the lightning flashed aud
phone bells rang.
When day dawncd it was discovered
that the small tower On the northeast
corner of the Morrill, hotel, surmOunt-
ed by flag staff, had been struck.
The flag staff was rlddled and the
tower Utterly torn to atoms down sew
eral feet below the cap rocks of the
hotel walls.
The street was strewn with brick
and mortar for some distance in three
different directions. The bricks were
pulverized and scattered as though
ten inch shell had exploded in the
center of the tower.
The hotel is magnificent three
