Closing of Rives Graded School.

The closing exercises of the R1yes
Graded School occurred Wednesday
and Thursday evenings of last
week. The exercises Wednesday
night consisted OF few selections
of music, reading, and an address
on THE South and Literature by
Hon. Finis ]. Garrett, of Dresden,
Tenn. The address of Mr.. Garrett
was able, ornate and eloquent and
pronounced by those who heard it
to be equal to anything ever given
in Rives. The exercises Thursday
afternoon consisted of Rotations,
songs, music, drills, etc, by the
primary students. Thursday even
ing's program was made up of mu-
sic, both instrumental and vocal,
drills, pantomimes, plays, etc. We
would like to mention those stu
dents who surpassed in the parts
they rendered but the number is so
large that space will not permit.
All in all, the exercises were fine
and not a failure nor a "break
down" was made by single stu
dent. This is a fine record, consid-
ering that every student, from the
chart class to the ninth grade, had
some part to play in the proceed
ings. The order was fine and the
audiences large, standing room be-
ing at premium the last night.
The teachers are to be congratu-
lated for the way they trained the
students, especially Misses Nellie
Clemmons, Leiron Bonner and Fan
ME Reynolds, who did the training.

the eighth year of the Rives Graded

ROMANTIC MARRIAGE.
Professor Johnson WEEDS Miss Mann
OF Arkansas, at Methodist Par
SOnape

Quite a romantic marriage took
place at the parsonage of the Dex-
ter Avenue Methodist church at
ia North Hull street at 5 o'clock
yesterday afternoon when Rev. A.
L. Andrews, pastor of that church,
united in marriage Professor Tade
Johnson and Miss Stella Mann, of
Clarksvllle, Ark.
Professor Johnson is principal of
the bookkeeping department of the
Draughons Business College in
this city and has been here since
last October. He was formerly a
resident OF Clarksville, Ark, and
before leaving that place last Octo-
Der secured the consent of the sweet
Young woman whom he welded
yesterday to one day return and
claim as his bride. The day for
the marriage was fixed and both
these young people were happy as
they thought that soon their child
hood anticipations might be real
lied.
AS the time for the marriage
drew near at hand, however, Pro-
fessor Johnson realized that it
would be next to impossible for
him to return to Arkansas to claim
his bride, owing to the strenuous
business lite which he is leading,
and being unable to secure a COM
petent man to fill his place in the
college here. But love, which
laughs at locksmiths and defies
prison bars, was not to be outdone.
Professor Johnson wired his pros
pective bride to come to Montgom-
cry. This she consented to do.
She set out for this city, crossed
the rolling Mississippi river and
sped on to the Cradle of the Con-
federacy, reaching here at II o'clock
Yesterday. A marriage license was
secured and the happy young coup
lie, together with party of intimate
friends, repaired 70 the residence of
Rev. A. L. Andrews, where they
were married.
Professor and Mrs. Johnson will
be at home to their friends at the
residence of Prof. Simmons, 81
South street, where they will board
for the present.
The above article appeared in the
Montgomery (Ala.) Journal of May

an equivalent course of study. The
citizens of Rives have stood nobly
by the teachers and directors of the
school for which they feel Justly
proud. But not only have the peo-
pie of Rives supported the school
we'll, but the citizens of adjoining
districts have done the same.
About thirty students we're enrolled
the past session from other dis
tricts, most all of them doing ex-
cellent work If it be true that the
worth of school is Judged by the
success of it's graduates, the friends
of the Rives school may be Justly
proud of their institution of learn
ing. OF the twenty four graduates,
one is prominent lawyer, another
graduates this year from the Uni
versity of Tennessee, two from the,
Memphis Female Institute, of
Jackson, Tenn, one from the Due
West Is. CO. Female College, and
thirteen are licensed school teach
ers. For these and other reasons
we, as one of the patrons of the
school, wish to commend it to those
desiring a frst-class school.

A lust Complaint

Frank Buschiazzo is down from the
Bruneau country. He says the non.re-
sident sheepmen of that section drive
their fiocks close to the home of the
small farmer and destroy all the feed
and keep the settlers cattle away
from the springs. He says if the
sheepmen- are not prohibited from
feeding their sheep close to the ran
ches of the small farmer, the result
will be that in a few years the set
tiers will be driven out and all that
country will be a big sheep pasture.
He thinks the incoming Legislature
should pass a law prohibiting the dri-
wing of sheep within two miles of a
ranch. Idaho has such law and it
works well. There is merit in Buschi-
azzo's complaint Candidates for the
Legislature should study the matter.
