DELIGHTFUL MUSICAL,
 THURSDAY EVENING

A most delightful musical was given Thursday evening at the home of Mrs. L. Hirsch by Miss Mary McKinnon's pupils.
 The first number on the nro- gram was a piano duet, Come Dance With Me-" by Misses Bertha Hirsch and Beatrice Me- Hugh, two of Mrs. Johnson's pupils. It was played particu- larly smooth and with excellent technique for pianists so young.
 Miss Ellen Jones followed with a violin solo, Hounds From Lu- ray," waltz, which she played with marked improvement and a we'll sustained tone throughout
 Miss Hilda Bailey's piano se- lection, impromptu, was happily chosen and was rendered in a dainty and sprightly manner.
 Miss Della Bernstein's voice came out we'll in Lament and "Carmenta," the contrast in the songs affording an opportunity for variety of expression.
 Mrs. s. D. Campbell made her first appearance in the popular Brohms' Cradle Song" and Loves Madrigade" by Ken nette Rae. Mrs. Campbell has a rich soprano and her interpre- tation of the songs showed care full, intelligent study.
 The program closed with a violin duet by Miss McCauley and Miss McKinnon, ably as- sisted at the piano by Mrs. R. M. Johnson. Miss McCauley played with breadth and feeling and the chief essential of a good violinist, a true ear.
 Miss McKinnon then gave a few selections, which closed the evenings entertainment.

 A newspaper whose columns overflow with advertisements of business men has more influence in attracting attention and build ing up a town than any agency that can be employed. People will go where there is business. Capital and labor go where there is an enterprising community. No power on earth is so strong to build up town as paper we'll patronized, and it's power should be appreciated. John Wanamaker.
 The Green Tag sale, inaugu- rated Saturday by Sink & Martin, proved great trade inducer and the store was crowded from till night to take advan- tage of the bargains offered. This enterprising firm was not afraid to risk a few dollars in the liberal advertisement of the sale and by bona fide reductions, they reaped an enormous harvest of trade. Such sales go long ways toward establishing a general trade, in keeping a firm in the public eye.

Term Was the Most NscessA0' 2 in Newport's History AlKs By Several Patrons "
 Excellent Showing.

The examinations and closing exercises of the public schools have been going on all this week, and never in the history of the school have the parents and citl- zens generally of the city mahl- fested more interest than in these closing exercises.
 It is the universal opinion that the term just closed was the most successful in the history of the Newport school. Prof. Geo. R. Hopkins, who is one of the most enthusiastic educators in the state, has certainly endeared himself to the parents and pupils of Newport.
 A reporter for the Independent visited each room and listened to the examination of the different grades and never saw more thor ough work in any school. The oral examinations in Latin and ancient history in Prof. Hopkins ninth and tenth grades would do honor to any school.
 Thursday afternoon was given over to recitations in the differ ent rooms, and short talks by the board of trustees, who spent the afternoon in the school. Talks were also made by Mesdames D. w. Anderson, Ike Goldman and M. A. Dorsey, which were lis- tened to with much interest by the children.
 It would be impossible to tell which room or grade had accom- plished the most work, so thor ough has been the work in the entire school, and it is the gen. eral opinion that it would be wise if it were possible for the board of education to retain the entire faculty for the next term.
