lazeweII College Commencement
Exercises.

The closing exercises of Tazewell College
were begun on last Saturday and were con-
cluded on Tuesday night. At each exer-
else good audiences were in attendance
and were we'll entertained.
Saturday night the children gave an en-
tertainment, which consisted of recitatlons,
dialogues, pantomimes, and music The
children are always interesting, because OF
the zest with which they do their work on
such oc ,asions. This was not an excep'
ton, and was very pleasing entertain
ment.
On Sunday night Rev. j. S. French
preached the annual sermon to the school,
and the church was crowded with large,
very attentive and deeply interested con-
gregation. His subject was Think on
These Things" and was taken from Phil
ipians 4, s.
1t was very practical and forcible adj
dress. He urged the young persons to
think deeply and to give their thought to
the large and important things of life.
Monday morning at 10 O'Clock the Lit
erary Address was delivered by Rev. Phil
10 Johnson. The hour was en- incon enl'
ent one for the busy portion of the town
and not as large audience as the very in
teresting and meritorious address deserved
attended. The house, however, was fairly
well filled, and MIR. Johnson received close
attention during his remarks. His subject
was. Evolution, and was discussed from
a standpoint that made it very interesting
to the hearers. He did not undertake TO
endorse the Darwinian theories, but con-
fined his remarks chiefly to the evolution
of man from a physical, intellectual and
moral standpoint. The address was well
written, bearing the impress OF much care
and study.
Monday night recitation contest for
gold medal by class of eight young
ladies' took pl ce. The contest was a sharp
one. but the medal was won by Miss Kate
Ratlih, who recited quite cleverly,
Naughty Little Girl"
On Tuesday morning there was an ora
torical contest in which four young men,
members of Jaeger Literary Society,
took part. The contestant were Samuel
l.. Peery, Walter Wllten, Robert Scott
and T. ". Patton. The orations were all
pronounced excellent, and the medal was
won by Samuel i. Peery. 1t is a very
handsome and valuable medal, donated
by Col. VIM. e. w. Jaeger.
The last exercises we're held on Tuesday
night, and consisted of a mixed program
of oralions, recitations essays and music;
These closing exercises were considered
among the best ever given by the College.

WANT TO KNOW THE WHY.
for the Compnnfonship of Prairie
Dog, Owl and snake.

Scientists in Washington are again
making an effort 10 elueidate one of
the most extraordinary anomalies in
natural history, and a thing which
never fails to stagger visitors to the
western plains when it is first brought
to their attention. This is the happy
family, consisting of prairie dog, an
owl and a rattlesnake, which inhabits
holes in prairie dog villages. The owls
are of a peculiar variety, being small
of body and rather quick of fight, al
though they do not wander far from
their own firesides, says the Chicago
Tribune.
Scientists are now trying to find
+, out by just what arrangement this
curious household is maintained. I'm
doubtedly the prairie dog builds the
hole and is the landlord, the owl and
the snake being presumably tenants
at will. How does the snake pay his
rent? Where does the owl come in?
These are questions which have never
been satisfactorily answered.
After several years of careful OBJ
servation of prairie dog villages
western philosopher has drawn up an
attempted explanation of this mys-
Itery. 1t is we'll known, for instance,
that owls mount guard over the holes
every. night, and a horseman riding
through one of these villages in the
early morning sees owls blinking at
him and bobbing their heads up and
down.
Why does the owl mount guard?
Because, says the western philosopher,
because of the disreputable habits Of
the prairie dog. The prairie dog is an
animal of convivial habits. About
twice a week he goes out on "bat."
There is a small pulque plant growing
on the prairies, the sap Of which runs
freely when the bark is scratched and
is of highly intoxicating nature.
The prairie dog, after two or three
days of sobriety, sallies forth in the
evening, perhaps accompanied by some
of his chums, and they visit grave of
these small plants. There they pro-
ceed to "open wine" Along between
midnight and sunrise our prairie dog
landlord is likely TO come staggering
home, if, indeed, he turns up at all.
He would not be able to find his own
home but for the watchful owl. who.
perhaps, assists him down the dark
passageway, until he rolls TO the bot
tom in a drunken stupor.
This explains how the owl pays his
rent. A cowboy says the owl goes
even further. and presents the house
hold with an egg every Christmas and
Fourth of July. But nobody has even
been able to explain where the rattle
snake comes In. Perhaps he protects
the owl
