DAMAGING DISCLOSURE.

The two candidates for the leg
islature were speaking from the
same platform.
"My fellow citizens" said the
candidate with the long black mus
tache, rising to speak in his turn,
81 am able at least to unmask the
hypocrite that has just addressed
you. Itisa disagreeable duty but you
have a right to know what manner
of man he is. Well may he trem.
BILE at the disclosure | am about to
make, for it knocks the last prop
from under him and shows him to
you in his true light"
Here the speaker paused to take
a drink of water.
Then he slowly turned his head,
looking over his shoulder at the
other candidate with a glance of
concentrated scorn, and faced the
audience again.
A hush pervaded the ball.
"Fellow citizens" he exclaimed,
in a voice of thunder, "this man
poses as a friend of the common
people! He goes around shaking
hands with everybody" Do you
know why he does it7 I will tell
you. He does it to deceive you.
Fellow citizens, he is no horny

were never poduced by work. He
never did a days work in his life.

deny it, and it cost him the cleo

The Teachers Institute law as
it now exists, is a complete hold
up for colored teachers. And it
would be better for them if there
was no Institute law. Here is an
example: Two teachers attended
the teachers Institutes in Cooper
and Charlton counties, respective
ly, and afterwards took the
examinations of the county boards
in these same counties, where they
had attended the Institutes, passed
satisfactory examinations, paid
Institutes, and county-board fees
in these counties and were given
certif Gates. They were elected to
teach in Cole county. and when
they went to take charge of their
work, they were held up by the
Cole county board and compelled
to pay SD each before they were
permitted to teach. Making their
total amount Of fees $3.50, besides
railroad fare, two weeks board
and time to secure a certificate.
Why such highway robbery is
made to confront colored teachers,
we are unable to explain, unless
the county boards simply take the
advantage Of a "good thing"
brought about by a rotten legisla-
tive enactment. The Legislature
made no provision for the pay.
ment Of colored Institute con-
ductors, except they are to collect
So Institute fee from every
teacher who attends his Institute.
And here comes another hold up.

ing to law. If teachers are to pay
$3.50 for a certificate, which per-
mits them to teach a 500 school it
would be far better that there
were no colored teachers Institute
law, and that they were permitted
to go before the county commits
sioner and be examined as was the
law years ago.

HOW TO PRONOUNCE ROOSEVELT.
Here Are Fourteen Different Ways Used
And There Are Others.

From the New York Times,
Just how to pronounce the name
of our President is a matter that
puzzles a great many people. His
name has given rise to a greater
variety of pronunciation than that
of any statesman who has ever
occupied the front rank.
The English people SHE'D a
"D'Israeli" when they first saw it
in print, and Americans when they
first saw "Thiers" were given
pause. Bonaparte changed the
spelling of his name, and there
some purists who excite amusement
by still spelling it "Buonaparte''
and pronouucing it accordingly.
But fol a man of world wide
fame, as the President of the
United States must necessarily be
in these days, there has never be-
fore been a case like that of
"Roosevelt' to puzzle mankind.
Even Goethe" and "Pepys"
we're not so mystifying.
Elsewhere than in New York
and in Holland and South Africa,
where Dutch names are common,
the greatest variations of the Pres
ident's name are to be met with.
People in England are at g about
it. On the continent almost every
man has his own opinion on the
subject. Here are a few of the
vagaries:
Rosa-felt, Ruzy-veld,
Rosen-felt, Rockwell,
Roosevelt. Roosevelt,
Ruzy-vell, Rosen-velt,
Roosevelt, Roosevelt,
Ruzy-felt, Roose-felt,
Ruze-felt, Ruza-f felt,
A few million people in Eng
land think the President is a Boer.
Others say: "There's another
one of those queer American
names" In Germany people be-
lieve him to be a Jew descended
from one of those families which
took their names from objects in
nature, such as "Rosendale' and
"Rosenstein." Many Frenchmen
think he is a German, especially
since he talked fluently in that
language with Prince Henry, but
spoke with Count Rochambeau in
language which one of the French
delegates described as "bizarre."

Three Years Of Failure Too Much for
the Blue and Gray Oarsmen.

The University Of Georgetown has about
decided to withdraw from the Poughkeepsie
regatta.
This. at least. Is the report that has gone
forth from one of the most prominent sup
porters Of the crews Of past years. Accord
Ing to his story. the crew has been a heavy
drag upon the athletic association Of
Georgetown, and there has not been any
return In either honor or glory for the
money that has been expended upon them
during the past three seasons. About IS, 600
has been expended upon the crews Of the
blue and gray since they first competed In
the Poughkeepsie regatta, and 1t Is certain
that the places won by Georgetown each
season at the finish Of the four-mile race
were not near enough to the leaders to
warrant a continuance Of the expenditure
necessary to maintain q crew.
At least this u the view credited to the
students and alumni who have so gener-

past seasons. 1t has become plainly evi-

According to the articles of agreement
which they have signed. they will meet In
a twenty-round bout before the club during
the first week in March for 621a per cent OF
the gross receipts.
The club wanted the men to box next
month, but Ryan said he wanted more than
three weeks in which to train, and Romans
granted him his request. The men will bat
tie at 1852 pounds, weigh in at 3 O'Clock on
the afternoon of the contest
1t Is hard to account for Ryan's decision,
considering the big offer made him by JACK
Hermann matchmaker Of the International
A. c. of Fort Erie. Canada.
It was most liberal-a guarantee Of $4,000.
or 60 per cent Of the gross receipts. While
Ryan and Root will probably split that
amount after their contest In Frisco, 1t
