EDWIN LEFEVRE.

Edwin Lefevre, author of "The Gold
en- Flood, is of Huguenot descent, but
was born at Clon, on the Isthmus of
Panama, in 1871. His grandfather was
the chief justice of Panama. Though
educated to be a mining engineer, Mr..
Letevre found writing much more to
his taste. He had worked in New York
as newspaper man about six years.
He was for some time sub-editor on the
Engineering and Mining Journal, and is
now doing the financial columns of the
New York Globe. 1t is interesting to
note that he came to New York and
took up journalistic work among the
stock brokers and financial magnates be-
cause he recognized the great fctional
opportunities in Wall street.

teachers in the public schools when
they open next fall is threatened unless
unusual methods are adopted to secure
more applicants for positions. Ac-
cording to reports made up in the SUI
perintendent's Office yesterday, the
supply of teachers will fall about 200
short of the demand. There will grad
uate from the normal school this year
only seventy-five teachers, while
scarcely $50 others will take the ex-
aminations' for positions in the primary
grades.
The annual demand for new teachers
is about 400, and this year it will ex-

qualify, it is expected not more than

Geo. Morsrldge Wins Honor at Iowa
Wesleyan by Work on Junior Annual.

Mt. Pleasant, June 10.-Through his
magnificent success of the Junior An
nual, the initial edition Of which
will be issued in few days, George
B. Morgridge was elected yesterday
editor-in-chief Of the Wesleyan News,
the official paper of the college. Over
coming hundreds of unforeseen obsta-
cles and burning much of the midnight
oil, Morgridge, as the main director,
successfully completed the first ven
ture Of the kind ever made at the
Methodist school, that of publishing an
annual chronicle Of the doings of the
college. The book itself contains some
$50 pages, and is particularly valuable
in view of the fact that this is the sex
tennial year. The edition, which was
printed by a Burlington concern, is
limited, and costs nearly $500 for its
compilation. Among the things of his.
toric interest is review of the college
from the foundation up to the present
and which is the work of it's able chief
Morgridge.
The rest of the staff of the news is:
Business manager, Charles Anderson
subscription agent, Irwin Kiss. Misses
Lura Clark. Mabel Spry, May Stod
