Prettyman as principal OF the School the
committee has watched in vain for a single
gathering of the faculty of the school which
might properly be called a meeting of the
Normal School faculty. The minutes OF the
meetings Of the faculty of the institution
read like an opera bouffe, their proceedings
consisting of play, work and pastime ques-
tons Of educational policy and normal train
ing and psychology or pedagogy, science Of
school administration, or advancement Of
the curriculum or OF co relating subjects
which it embraces, have never occurred To
be considered in the deliberations o: this
learned body. The droll but perfectly con
scious humor Of these assemblages would be
shining mark for the pen of Dickens or
Mark Twain.
"The attention at these momentous Occa-
slons is occupied by school pins and class
coors; with designs and badges for various
events, with the color of the cover upon the
catalogue of the School with class enter
tainments, Arbor Day exercises, school holi
days and programmes for commencement.
In these moments of relaxation Arbor Day
appears especially TO ill up their esprit du
corps. Taking up these weighty minutes
from point some eight or nine years back,
they run 10 the present time, averaging
about one regular meeting year and four
special meetings year; almost all of these
being devoted to preparations for Arbor
Day.

POUNDS OF SUGAR BERE

Speeding from the Hawaiian Islands
to the Delaware BrealSwater is a ship
carrying one of the largest and most
valuable cargoes ever shipped from
that land.
The vessel is the new Hawaiian
American Line steamship Alaskan, in
command of Captain Banfield She is
laden to her full capacity with sugar
Slowed away between decks are II. 900
tons Of the sacharine product, or more
than 22.O0O.O00 pounds.
This immense cargo, according to
the latest quotations, is worth 3ls cents
per pound, or $40 a ton, making a to-
tai value of $4,000. A slight increase
OF l-l6 Of cent per pound on the YES
sells arrival would mean an increase Of
Sl3,500 in the value of her cargo.
The Alaskan picked up her cargo at
various ports in the Hawaiian Islands.
At Honolulu 5000 tons were taken on.
at KaIhului $500 tons, and at Hilo p
800 tons. She sailed from the latter
port May Is, and will make the voyage
of some 1900 miles in about seventy
five days, stopping at various ports for
bunker coal.
The Alaskan will stop at the Della
ware Breakwater where her master
will receive final orders for the dispo-
sition Of the cargo Il may be dis
charged at the wharves in Philadel-
phia, or at those of the Sugar Trust in
New York.

and crashed directly into the Wilson
The Wilson went down so quickly that
it did not seem possible to save life.
One man on the Wilson threw life
preservers to those who had jumped
into the water. The crew of the Had.
ley also threw out life preservers. AS
the Wilson went down, the members
of the crew rushed to the stern, jump
ing overheard as fast as they could
free themselves from their clothing.
The vessel did not float a minute after
the collision. During this interval
she seemed supported entirely. by the
Hadley's PROV, which was sticking
in through her plates Two men who
jumped last were seen struggling near
the hull just before the plunge and
could not be seen afterward.
In few moments it was apparent
that the Hadley was going down and
the crew on il could be seen stripping
themselves and lowering the boats
Some Of them got into the boats, but
when the Hadley sunk to within a foot
Of her deck she seemed to cease sink
ing for a few moments. and the men
clambered back on the boat The race
of the life saving crew and the tugs
for the wreck was thrilling. The Had.
ley would not have made the shore
had II not been for the tugs. The
life saving crew picked up tile men
in the water. The Hadley had a hard
run for shore, and moment after her
bow went on the bottom her stern
began to settle and finally went down.
Fully half the way in from the scene
of the accident to the point of the

The pageant was a lengthy one, and
exploited numerous amusing features.
There were the regulation men and
women riders in gaudy attire, upon
strong. well-fed looking animals;
three or four bands, including the
'rube" and colored organizations,
monkeys riding bits of ponies. clowns
galore and the other interesting per-

up the ideal circus. There were five or
six elephants and as many more
