JUST BOYS
AND CAPS

Last night shortly before midnight,
over on Liberty street, near Court, was
heard a succession Of shots, resembling
those of revolver, which were fol-
lowed by acute screams, and those who
heard it felt a blood-curdling sensa.
tion Of murder. For a short time it
was expected that a sensational affair
would develop as a result of the com
bination Of noises heard, but nothing
could be located by any one. Even
this morning the matter was mys-
terry, and the police were unable to
give any satisfactory explanation Of
the matter 1t has, however, come to
light that lot Of boys placed mum
Der of dynamite caps upon the street
car track, which were exploded by the
late car. There were FIVE shots, and
the explosions resembled that Of five
charges from a revolver. The screams
that followed were evidently for the
benefit Of the mOtorman and con
ductor, but the boys were the worst
victims Of the affair, for no attention
was paid to the affair, either by the car
operatives or the police.

lus, at Rome, it being the usual
custom of Roman governors to
advise the senate and the people
of such material things as happen
ed in their provinces in the days
of Tiberius Caesar. Publius Len
tulus, Procurator of Judea, wrote
the letter to the senate:
There appeared in these, our,
days, a man Of great virtue named
Jesus Christ, who is yet living
amongst US, and of the Gentiles
is accepted as the prophet of
Truth. He raises the dead and
cures all manner of diseases. a
man of stature somewhat tall, and
comely, such as the beholder may
both love and fear. His hair Of
the color of a chestnut full ripe;
plain to his ears, whence down
ward it is more orient and curling,
and waving about his shoulders.
In the midst of his head is o seam,
a partition in the hair, after the
manner of the Nazarites. His
forehead plain and very delicate;
his face without spot or wrinkle,
beautiful with a lovely red. His
nose and mouth so formed that
nothing can be reprehended. His
beard in color like his hair, not
very long, but forked. His look
innocent and mature. His eyes
gray, clear and quick and lulni-
nous. In reproving he is terrible,
his eyes pierciug-as with a two
edged sword the greedy, the sell
fish and the oppressor, but look
with tenderest pity on the weak,
the erring and the sinful. Cour-
teous and fair-spoken. Pleasant
in conversation mixed with grav-

STATE NORMAL At CLINTON.

Special oorrespondence.l

Special Correspondence
Clinton, June Is. The Normal
School at Clinton opened Tuesday,
june 18th, with an enrolment 81
more than $50 teachers, and this
number is rapidly increasing.
The opening addresses were so in
spring that we consider chat alone
well worth the trip to this place.
AS we sit at the feet of these no
BILE men and women, and hear
them talk, and see their skillful
work we feel that there can be no
profession with greater opportd-
mites for doing good, and more
noble than that of the teacher.
DIR. B. G. Caldwell, of the
Louisiana State Normal, who is
director of this normal, is one Of
the most inspiring and business
like men that we have ever met.
He started the work off in a busi-
ness way from the very first day.
Every member of the faculty is
wide awake to his line of work
and they have the hearty cooper
alton of the teachers, which means
that we will have a successful
normal. We wish to say to our
fellow teachers, who are not in
some normal elsewhere, that this
is d place and an opportunity to
help you. The work is so arrang-
ed that each teacher can take near
~ all the work that is given;
provided he is able to do the
work. We have a faculty com.
posed of teachers from Yale Uni
yersity, Heidelberg, Tulane Uni
versity. Mississippi College,
Blue Mountain and other Southern
schools; so one can readily see
what an opportunity for broad
ness of views, is to be found here.
The primary Department. is most
excellent. Mrs. j. H. Philips, of
Birmingham, has charge of this
work, and she is doing actual
class work with the primary
grades. having ten children in
each grade, in order to show the
teachers how to teach rather than
to tell them how.
When State Superintendent
Whitfield called for the teachers
by counties, he found Lincoln
county in the lead at least ten
teachers more than any other
county, with the following repre-
sentation:
