President Mckinley's alleged
tender to England Of the good Of

bringing about peace between Eng
| land and South African republics
which Euglaudis slowly but sure.
|ly crushing out of existence was
nothing more than the attempt OF
frightened politician to bamboo.
/ zie the voters of this country who
have been openly expressing SYM
pathy for the fight for life that
/ the citizens of those republics are
making. 10 fact, there has been no
tender Of gOO6 Offices to this gov
ernment, All that was done was
to forward a cablegram from the
| South African republics to the Eog-
/ lish government. through the U.
/ s. Embassy in London. There was
not word Of comment from this
government, althoughPresldentMc-
kinley knows that right sort OF a
message from him would result IN
saving the existence OF those re
republics. The message from the
South African governments was not
even dignifed by being presented
by the United States Ambassador
to England, that official being off
on a pleasure jaunt; it was present
ed by one of his secretaries. 1t was
because Of the bad showing that
would have been made that Mr..
Mckinley took advantage of his
right aud refused to furnish the
Senate with copies Of all cores
pOndence with Great Britain and
the South African republics, which
were asked for by the resolution Of
fered by Senator Allen and adopted.
After wrangIing and fighting for
nearly week and holding two cau-
cuses the republican Senators have
patched up sort Of agreement on
the Porto Rico bill. A bill appro.
priating 81, 100000 for the immedi-
ate relief ofthe Porto Ricans is to
be passed at once, and the debate
upon the old bill is to be continued
indefinitely. Senator Davis stated
III caucus that it the republicans
did not give Porto Rico free trade
MIR. Mckinley would lose the cleo
toral vote of Minnesota, and SEN
ator Beveridge made a similar
statement as to Indiana.
Representative Sulzer, of New
York, believes that the various
stories Of complaints of American
citizens resident in the Transvaal
Republic of the treatment of them
selves and other foreigners are fakes
circulated to stop the increase Of

to prove his belief to be correct he
has offered a resolution in the

The Closing of MOak School.

Moak school, or blue Jay
Academy" as it is commonly call
ed by the mlschievous, tun-Ioylng
boys Of this neighborhood, is situ-
ated in the northeastern part OF the
county on beautiful sandy hill,
near the slow flowing stream Oi
rangipahoa. The children that
attend this school enjoy the cool,
sweet breeze of the placid waters
of this stream, as it blows through
the branches ofthe beech and sweet
bay trees, and sweep across their
play ground,
/ The whole public term Of four
months had been one Of pleasure.
The school was in athrlving cOndl-
tion, every one being pleased with
their teacher, Prof. T. A. Ioler, OF
Merwin, one Of Amite's prominent
young men.
! Ga Friday, the 2nd day of March,
as the sun began lo rise IN its SPLEEN
dor beyond the eastern horizon,
and ascend towards It's zenith, the
teacher and pupils OF Blue Jay
Academy" were assembling for the
Iast llne this session.
We know tits generally custom-
cry to have reci,atiuns on the last
I day Of school, but on this occasion
We had nOue, but | am inclined to
belive that, with the material that
compose this school, we could have
an excellent display especially with
such boys as those three that won
the prize offered by William Jack
son to the one that stayed foot the
most in spelling. The prize offer.
ed by the teacher to the best spell
er, or the one that received the most
head marks, was won by little Miss
Lura Cameron, fair damsel OF thi:
vicinity.
When the time OF dismissior
came the heart of the teacher an
scholars were filled with sadness
/ AS the professor rose the room wal
thrown into stiffness. Among 9th
er things be said: That this, III,
last day of school, should be lht
saddest of all school days. Thi
little band may never meet agalI
