owing to the demand which the
American occupation OF the Philippines
has created for young men skilled in
oriental languages. Columbia university
has added to It's curriculum a course In
Chinese, which viii be taught, gram
matically and conyersationally, as care
fully as French, Spanish, German or
any Of the other modern languages.
The opportunity to learn Chinese, as
well as to study other oriental Ian
guages, has been eagerly embraced by
students, who realize that the United
States must soon need the services OF
well educated men who possess also a
practical knowledge Of such languages
as Chinese.
This novel addition TO the language
course has been made possible by Gen.
Horace W. Carpenter, wealthy Cali
fornian who has given TO Columbia
the sum OF 100000 with which TO endow
a chair OF Chinese language and litera-
lure. The endowment was originally
anonymous and II was with some diff

ing to the letter accompanying IL, came
from Dean Lung himself This only
added 20 the mystery, which at that
time enshrouded the entire gift, for no
one In New York could Identify Dean

Arrested in Fort Worth.

Some weeks ago ]. w. Warren
was fined in the justice court here
ON a charge of enticing a minor.
The girl In the case was called Bes-
sic Hawkins. The people had all
lived at Frost, before coming to En-
mis-. 1t seems that Bessie preferred
living with the Warrens to staying
at home with her parents. The girls
mother had gotten hold of letters
from Warren IN her daughter, which
led her TO realize an awful fact, and
she testified that she ordered her
child to stay away from Warren $
house.
Since then Warren and the girl
are charged up with another chap
ter enacted in Fort Worth.
The Fort Worth Register of the
Tth tells about young girl going to
hotel In Fort Worth, calling her
self Flora Warren. She told the
hotel man that her brother would be
there soon. When the man came
the hotel man became suspicious
and later his suspicious were con
firmed. Warren was arrested and
has had an examining trial on a
charge of criminal assault and his
bond set at $1,000. Ennis News.

MEETING or CITY TEACHERS


The teachers of the city schools
met in their last regular meeting
this morning. The study Of the
Merchant Of Venice was concluded,
the program consisting of general
discussion of the fable, the dialogues
and the sentiments of the play.
The work done by the teachers in
their institute during the past year
has been a review of the history
and the literature of Rome and
Italy, and an analytical study sf
Shakespeare's representative COM
edy, The Merchant of Venice. In
terest has characterized each meet
ing, and the association of the
teachers one with another upon
such occasions and the matching of
rival wits have contributed much to
the efficiency and harmony of the
teaching corps,
The meeting of this morning was
closed with a contest which was at
tended with close interest and some
amusement. Three papers which
were to be filled out within a certain
time allowance, were presented to
the teachers, and the one who made
the highest average grade was
