uprising of the people, and Mr.. AL.

defeated in the Office of school trus-

Mr.. Hoffman,, Mr.. Hoffman has,
much to the regret Of his neighbors,
moved to Nashville. and the County
Superintendent of Public Instruction
has appointed in his place the identi-
cal man who was rejected by the
voters; 50 that Mr.. Titus is trustee in
spite Of the will of the people. The
reason for the appointment is that
since losing his mail route Mr.. Titus
has become the colored Democrat of
Berea. He has, as might have been
expected, declined TO favor the APP
pointment of competent teachers,
especially competent man teacher
for the Berea school, and in general
stands ready TO hinder the plan Of
improved schools which is being
carried out by the people, headed by

Or. Psarson's sirthdsy.

As is usual in Berea on April IL.
all class exercises were suspended for
the day, and students and faculty
united to celebrate the birthday of
Bereas chief benefactor. There is
no one to whom Berea owes deeper
debt Of gratitude, and whom she
delights TO honor more than DR..
Pearsons. A large audience of citi-
zens and students gathered at the
Tabernacle at 2.30 P. NJ. TO hear an
address by DIR. Barton. The exer
cises were opened by music by the
band, after which Rev. Thomson led
in prayer. The chairman, DIR. Hubbell
then introduced the speaker of the
occasion.
DIR. Barton took the floor amidst
hearty applause, and when it had
subsidized expressed his pleasure
at being present on such an occasion.
He said it required "only half an in
vitation to bring him to Berea, and in
fact that was all he had had this time. T"
He briefly outlined DIR. Pearson =
life from his early college days until
the present. DIR. Pearson, he said,
delighted 10 call himself mountain
white" having been born and raised
in the mountains of Vermont. He
had secured an education by dint of
hard work and careful economy, and
be was therefore in a position to APP
preciate the difficulties of a poor boy
in securing an education, and to
render him intelligent assistance.
He characterized DIR. Pearson as a
man of humble mien living com
lortably but not extravagantly. He
gives to worthy objects because he
enjoys giving and because he regards
the wealth with which God has
blessed him as a trust 10 be used to
His glory. DIR. Barton dwelt at
some length upon Berea's water and
sewerage system, DIR. Pearson's last
and greatest gift to the College.
The announcement of the gift was
made at Commencement last year,
and the work is now nearing com
pletion. The donor regards this as
one of his best investments.
Many helpful lessons were drawn
from the life and character of DIR.
Pearsons, which might well be fol-
lowed in the lives of ALL
DIR. Barton quite sustained his
reputation as an entertaining and in
structive speaker.
The Glee Club contributed two
selections, one before and one after
the address of the afternoon. The
new college song, the words of which
were composed by Prof. Dinsmore,
was sprung for the first time, and
made quite hit. The music for the
song was composed by Prof. Weaver
A closing prayer by DIR. Mayo and
music by the band brought the ex-
ercises to close.

too short 10 view the "Indian Room,
the Egyptian room. the carved ivory
and cut glass exhibit, and hundred
other things of interest. From here
the party proceeded 10 the Geological
Gardens.
Hunger now began to assert its
claims and il required the contents
Of each little lunch bag TO satisfy the
demands. Here also the generous
hospitality OF the entertainment com
mittee was exhibited in the distri-
button of large luscious oranges to
the excursionists. Lunch over, the
animals and birds of the Zoo were
soon beset with many curious eyes.
The carnivorous animals were cspeci
ally entertaining, if the lions roar
and the piteous 'mew" Of the jaguar
are considered as entertaining The
girafes, though rather up in the
world, seemed glad to welcome the
visitors, as evidenced by their grace
ful cantering up and down in their
narrow pen. The hippopotamus was
perhaps the greatest novelty Of the
Zoo, many for the first time witness
ing this peculiar beast.
AT 2 O'Clock the party was headed
for the Bullock Electrical works, one
of the largest in the United States. One
could only gain faint idea of the
immensely of the work carried on
here in the short time allowed to
view the premises.
From this point began the return
to the heart Of the city seven miles
distant, and in so doing passed
through Ayondale, and the beautiful
Walnut Hills suburb. Arrived at
the First National Bank, the party
was divided, half going into the
building and the rest going to the
Union Trust building ON the opposite
corner Permission had been pre-
viously granted TO view the city from
the roofs of these buildings. As they
are seventeen stories high splendid
birds eye view of the city and of the
Ohio river for considerable distance
was obtained. On the way TO the
Manhattan restaurant, where a good
lunch was enjoyed by all, the visi-
tors were conducted through Pogue's
store, one OF the largest in the city.
Return Trip without Incident.
At six o'clock p. m. the excursion
lists began the home trip to Berea.
They left Cincinnati feeling that the
hosts of the day had done all in
their power to make the occasion one
of enjoyment in every particular for
the visitors, and that they had
succeeded was written in the glow Of
satisfaction ON every face. Berea
was reached about ll.30 p. M, and
though all bore symptoms of weari-
ness they were unable to express
their delight at the success of the
days outing. Secretary Gamble
and the others who have labored SC
faithfully to make this excursion a
possibility are to be congratulated
upon the success browning their eff
forts.

Byrd Trego, the progressive publisher
of the Idaho Republican, published at

who went visitin' all over the South and

citation. While en- route he wrote num-
Der of crackerjack letters to his paper,
telling about the trip and his impress
sions. The typewriter recognized him
as it's master, too, and said some dandy
good things under his manipulation. A

smoother than grease to him! The
proof of this statement may be found in
