Under Sealed Orders.

The distinction of being the greatest
living master of powerful English, has
long since been conceded TO Rudyard
kipling. In literary creations which
combine boldness of conception with
faithfulness Of detail, he has no peer.
His story OF intrigue, love, hatred and
revenge, which is so forcibly portrayed
in the dramatization, "Under Sealed
Orders" is one OF the strongest delinia.
tions of human character that has ever
been presented in the histrionic arena.
The story is grand and powerful; the
dramatization is better than the story.
All the passions both good and evil,
which actuate humanity, are portrayed
with striking reality and vividness of de-
tail. There is Kaleidoscope panorma
NJ life scenes which, though thrilling in
the extreme, are recognized as being in
no wise beyond the pale OF probability.
This play is in unusually good hands.
The company presenting it has been
chosen with view to individual fitness
for the various parts and each player
handles his lines in masteriul manner.
The is a rich vein of good wholesome
comedy throughout the piece which af-
fords pleasant reaction from the more
thrilling scenes of the play.
There will be no disappointment felt
by any one who sees "Under Sealed
Orders next Wednesday evening, Feb

Teachers Institute at kerby.

The institute was organized at Kerby,
Jan. 20, 1901, with eighteen persons in
attendance. To complete the organiz-
alton, Miss Anna Fiester was elected as
secretary. Some Of the teachers whose
names appeared on the program being
absent, the following program was rem
dered:
The first was an address on "Institute
Work" by our worthy superintendent.
This address was excellent, bringing
out the all important facts pertaining to
the work Of teachers in clear and con.
else manner. II all of our teachers
would have the interest and zeal in their
work that is shown by our sup't in all his
work | am sure there would be greater
successes gained in educational lines.

Blanche Fetterly. Her methods for the
teaching of reading were highly ap-

was most thoroughly outlined in an ex-
cellent manner by Miss Lucy George.
The reading Of these methods was fol-
lowed by general discussion, all agree
ing that the methods outlined were well
worthy of great attention.
The institute was next favored with
an address by Mr.. shoemake on the
subject of "school Library" in which
was shown the many benefits derived
from good literature, especially in con-
nection with our schools. This subject
was ably handled by Mr., Shoemake,
and the value of school libraries was
made plain to all. House Bill No. 90,
on School Libraries, was then read and a

The Pride of Asia had met her

a sharp order from the captain
stopped them.
In a few seconds the captain had
decided on his course. The remain
