SCHOOL NOTES.

A valuable relic has been secured
by some of the pupils of '03 and 'O4,
for the school yard. 1t is nothing less
than huge block from the stump of
the "old elm,' SO long venerable and
beautiful landmark of Louisiana ay-
enue. To the pupils of generation
ago who played so often beneath the
shade of the "old elm" the block will
have more than passing value. The
block will be placed upon a good
foundation and used as a seat. Is it
not worth metal tablet on which
should be inscribed, whence it came
and other facts connected with the old
tree?
Miss Gertrude Chapman reports the
following pupils of her grade as per-
pect in spelling during the entire
month of March.

The Secretary of the Navy ex-
presses amazement at the reluctance
of the young men of the country to
serve in the navy, If Mr.. Moody would
but reflect, he could easily appreciate
the difficulty. So strong is social
caste in the navy, that it is practically
impossible for the enlisted men ever
to secure a commission. There has
been no difficulty in securing ere
cruits" for Annapolis.

astonished the other night when
a good-looling young couple asked
for permission to stay in one of the
cells till morning. 1t was explained
that they had been married over in
Missouri, and were going into south
ern Kansas, where the man had work
Then ran out of money, and had no
place to sleep. The bride was good
looking and cheerful, and seemed to
look upon the matter as something
of joke. But think of a honeymoon
commenced in Jail!

The Democratic state central com
mittee decided to hold the next state
convention in Columbus on August
25 and 26. S. M. Saltzgaber of Van
Vert, will be temporary chairman
and Chas. f. Mason of Butler county,
temporary secretary. 1t was decided
that delegates may be selected by
primaries or mass conventions, but
no county, central or executive COM
mittee is to have the right to select
delegates. The appointment of dele
gates is to be based on the vote of
Bigelow for secretary of state. The
official call will give the ratio of rep
resentation.

Cannot Kill Weevil.

New Orleans, Sept. 14.-The Texas
State Boil Weevil Commission has
made it's report to the governor.
There are no recommendations made
but the board states that it deems it
best to hold further examinations next
spring, as it is not possible to say
that any of the devices or remedies
submitted (there were 162 claimants
for the reward Of $50,O00) had full
filed the requirements of the law.
The commissioners are of the opin-
ion that, ultimately, remedy will be
found for the pest. but the crude
machines aud remedies 80 far submit
ted have not solved the problem.
1t is the opinion of the board that
the meetings which have been held
have done good for the farmers who
have attended them, and that it has
shown them that there are hopes Of
getting an exterminator, and that it
has induced many Of them to try to
solve the problem.
This will result in many more ex-
periments being made, and as all Of
the remedies have some merit, the
fight will be more extended and every
weevil killed is that much to the good.
Of the 162 claims filed, many were
not accompanied by the necessary af-
fidavits. There were many remedies
proposed that were almost similar, and
others placed their plans on cultured
methods, which could not be tested by
the commission.

White Man Convicted of Assault on a
Negro.

Greenvillc, Sept. l9.-Thc trial of
Robt. II. Gunnels, white, indicted for
the rape Of t year old negro girl, be-
gen at 10 o'clock this morning and
ended at 6 o clock this afternoon.
The evidence against the accused
was altogether circumstantial, but it
was strong and convincing and the
only weak link in the chain of evi-
dence was whether or not the rape had
been accomplished. The injury to
ths child was serious and left no doubt
as to what was the intention Of the
brutal assault, but the actual crime
was not proven and the blood upon the
man s finger nails, when arrested a few
hours afterwards indicated the man
ner of the injury to the child. The
jury must have taken this view Of the
case as after an hours deliberation
the verdict was rendered Of guilty
under the second count Of the indict-
ment which was an assault with iu.
tent to ravish the penalty for which is
not exceeding 10 years imprisonment.
