great deal of interest in the test of
speed, and the man who received the
swift bird of the air was instructed
to release it at a certain hour. and to
telegraph the moment the buzzard
smiled the free air. The message
came here that the bird, all proper
ly marked for Identification, had been
released from it's box, and watchers
were stationed in Market street to
time the moment of arrival. Va
rious time allowances had been sug-
gested by the interested crowd Of
watchers, and the prevailing idea was
that the buzzard could not get back
home for day, if at all. But this
is where the people were wrong, for.

its nose toward Charleston as soon
as it was set free, and the trip to
Charleston was made in four hours.
The old bird appeared to be very
much the worse for wear when it got
in, but record had been made, and
all the pools made on the flying trip
were upset. "-Richmond Tribune.

Foulke. He believed the law was a

The law was compared to collander,

Hon. s. D. Bowman told of the effort OF

blackboard diagrams, one ON the "Ad-

Of Spelling. Miss Sheppard, Instructor

topic each offering some very good
hints on teaching spelling.
