We feel, in giving this report that
while we have accomplished some good,
the results have not been as satisfac-
tory as we would wish. Since the holi-
days. because of so much sickness in
OSkaloosa, great many scholars were
prevented from attending regularly, al
so a number of the teachers were Of
ten kept. because of the same reason
from their post of duty. That has
thrown much more work and care on
the officers of the school. A number
of the older girls will in the near flu
ture meet at some Of the homes of the
teachers, where the quilt blocks will be
put together and quilted Perhaps one
of the quilts will go to the Osbaloosa
hospital.
We thank the teachers for their faith
full service, also for the cutters, Mrs.
Roach and Mrs Huber, who have help
ed fashion so many garments for the
children.

At the last meeting of the WOman's
Club all members were requested to
make known theirpreference for depart
ment work for the coming year. For
the benefit of those whose minds are
not made up, the writer would suggest
that some department take up the work
of beautifying the city. The streets
need cleaning and to be kept clean.
The back doors and alleys have need
of women's noses to pry into them.
If number of ladies would ask certain
business men to stop the loafing on
those corners. the tobacco juice would
be less plentiful and pedestrians would
not have to walk in filth. If men have
to squirt tobacco juice, why not make
them use the pavement where human
beings do not have to trod? If some
department will start the crusade there
will be plenty of helpers. Commence
with the removal of the railing around
the square-the only park the city af-
fords-and does it not appear like
hay-seed town of fifty years ago.
Will not the Art Department take
this in hand?
So many ladies of fine tastes and
judgment belong to this department
that the city might blossom like "a
Green Bay Tree if they would put
their hands to the pillow.
The Musical Department of the
Womans Club held its open meeting

CAUGHT IN THE DRAGNET.
Fifty Men Arrested for Selling To-
baccO and Cigarettes to
Minor

Charlottesville, Ind, Oct. 1.-On Sat-
urday Mayor Elmore of this city held
a court of inquiry, examining over
fifty small boys, from ten to fifteen
years old, who had been reported as
having become users of tobacco. The
youngsters, without reservation, di-
vulged the names of the dealers from
whom they had made their purchases,
and the mayor turned the informa-
ton over to the prosecuting attorney.
Warrants were at once issued for the
offenders, and over fifty arrests were
made Saturday night. Nearly every
grocer and tobacco dealer in the city
was caught in the net. Yesterday the
dealers settled with the mayor. The
investigation was set on foot by the
parents of some of the children who
had become addicted to the cigarette
habit.

THE REVOLT AT JEREMIE.
Suppressed, and Denial of
Truth of Report.

Kingston, Jamaica, Oct. 1.-Advices
from Hayti report the suppression of
the revolutionary movement at Jere-
mic. The arrests there are now re-
ported to have been confined to one
family, which was working in the in
terest of NJ. F%ouchard, the former
Haytian minister of finance. 1t is said
on good authority that Fouchard, was
recently advised by a party of Hay
tians who were making a landing to
join the revolutionary force in the
south of Hayti, where he is exceeding
ly strong. He, however, declined to
do so and expressed his willingness to
await developments here or wait until
election time.
The Haytian officials here say there
is no truth in the reports that the
revolutionary movement has been
suppressed.

martial at Fort Ethan Allen, VT, on
the charge of ''using disrespectful
words against the president of the

1t appears from the evidence that
when the news of the shooting Of

Fort Ethan Allen, Devine expressed
great satisfaction over the crime and
applied an uncomplimentarv Hpithet
to the late president. His comrades
roughly handled him before he could
be secured in the guard house. He
was found guilty of the charge by the
court and sentenced to be d%ishonora-
bly, discharged from the service ( the
United States, FORGETTING all pay and
allowances due him, and to be con-
fined at hard labor for one year.
The record of the case having been
returned to MaJ.-Gen. Brooke, at New
York, commanding the department Of
the east, he Endorsed it as follows:
1T is the opinion of the reviewing
authority that the punishment is not
a sufficient penalty for the Aagitious

The Virginia Legislature.

The Virginia constitutional conven-
ton has before it a measure limiting
the sessions of the state legislature
TO once in four years. United States
Senator Daniel, speaking against the
proposition, declared that the general
assembly which periodically sat in the
halls of the capitol, then occupied by
the convention, is the oldest and only
continuous parliamentary body in the
world, except that Of Great Britain.
And he said no state on earth had ever
had dumped on its legislatures as
many serious and f~ar-reaching prob
lens as that of Virginia had in the
Test 30 years. He declared that no
parliamentary body had ever devoted
itself with more ability or patriotism
to the great tasks than had the legis-
lature of Virginia. He said that CON
ccstion was the fatal disease that
strangled all free governments. He
asked why if four-year sessions
would be more economical they did
not say eight years or 16 years or 20
years, or abolish the legislature alto
gether. The South American repub-
lies have eight years; why not initiate
those revolutionary and constantly
changing forms of government?

Two rival funeral professions filed
into Justice Jake Levine's Office, at
Nashville, Tenn, the other day, to
have him settle the question as 10
who had the best claim to the corpse.
Lilly Bell Caruthers, of Columbia, was
visiting her aunt, Lora Bryant. She
became i'll, and died. Her father,
Tucker C~aruthers, was notified, and
he arrived in Nashville to take the
body back to Columbia for burial. The
aunt objected, and said the body must
be buried in Nashville. The father
swore out the writ of r%eplevin, and
the officers took charge of the body
and brought it into court. Both trains
of mourners followed the coffin, and
the room was completely filled. After
hearing the evidence in the case, which
developed the fact that the dead wom-
ans life had been insured for the
benefit of her father, Justice Levine
decided that the fathers claim was
better than the aunt's.
