The many friends Of Miss Bessie, the
charming and accomplished daughter
Of Mr.. and Mrs. II. NJ. Duke, will be
highly gratiied to learn that, at the re.
cent examinations at the Agnes Scott
Institute, where she has been a pupil
for the past three years, the young lady
carried off the honors in a claes Of
ninety and was awarded a scholarship
in music. This scholarship entities the
fortunate posssssor to a years free tut
ton in music, and is given for prof.
cheney and greatest improvement in
that branch of study during the year.
We heartily congratulate Miss Bessie
on her good fortune, and feel assured
that the honor could not have been
more deservedly bestowed.

1t occurs to the editor of this D
that some of the institutions for the
higher education of the fair sex must
instruct their pupils in the manipuIa-
ton of Marconi's system of wireless tel>
egraphy; else, how is it that a certain
young man, no matter what distance
intervenes, always "shows up" when G
certain Sweet girl graduate" steps off
the train at her home station. Can it
be purely accidental?
Whether there is any connection be-
tween the two or not, a friend of ours at
Evansville informs us that business ap-
pears to be taking on new life as tele-
phone poles are going up and there are
now three Sunday Schools in operation
at that place. Also, that they have
had fine rains in that section, and that
the crop prospects are exceedingly 6ne.
