~ r
In the earlier days Of the fame Of the
poet Whittier, when already, his name
was widely known and honored, but
did not vet command the almost uni
versal recognition it had won in his old
age, a visitor to Amesbury occasionally
bad difficulty in finding where he lived.
His house was in an out of the way
part yof the town, and his name pro-
>nounced by the country folk In two
syllables instead Of, three was not I'M
common In the neighborhood. It is re-
lated that one admirer, after much
search and many failures, made inqui-
ries Of rural gentleman of venerable
appearance, who seemed to take q
kindly interest in satisfying the que
rist, but suggested successfully the
dwellings Of several Whittiers, who
proved on further description not to be
the one. At length the old fellow re-
membered with sudden enlightenment
that there was one Whittier more, and,
Shaping his thigh, he drawled with de-
liberate triumph: -,
2, ''Now I've got him sure. You mean
that old bachelor man that lives with
an old maid sister daown by the mills.
He's Whitcher too" ........ -. y
And this "Whitcher," a despised bach
elor and an afterthought, was indeed
the right one. :

A Good Thing-Push It Along.

There is no question that if put to a
vote after the advantages had been ex-
planned this town would favor buying
rock crusher and having it operated
the same as the city plant is. We
need it's services for our streets and
when supplied with enough crushed
stone at home contracts could be
made with some forty other towns
whose streets are in ten times as bad
condition as our own. The freight
would be very low on that class oil
goods so that such towns could afford
to invest. Falls Tribune.

capacity of the opera house turned out
last Thursday evening to witness the
excellent entertainment given by the
pupils of the Eighth grade of the
public schools, being the closing exer-
cises that marked the end of another
successful school year. Miss Ander-
son and her assistants are deserving
of much praise for the success of the
affair, which was one of the prettiest
entertainments ever given by young
people in this city. All who took
part acquitted themselves very credit
ably. The Revolutionary period,
dramatized in one act, made up the
first part of the program and was pre-
scented with the following cast OF
characters:
Colonial General. Willie Stansberry
Job Jimsou. Anderson

Indian..... Edwin Sletten
Queen of Fairies. K aren Hanson

The Nature of an Oath.


Some years ago a case was on trial
before the Judge of court in city
adjoining Boston in which among the
numerous witnesses for the defense
was a decidedly ignorant appearing
and shiftless looking colored man
named Jones, who was to testify as to
an alibi.
He was finally called, and the usual
oath was about to be administered,
when the attorney for the prosecution
arose and addressed his honor, sug-
costing that Mr.. Jones be Intercepted
as to his understanding Of the solem-
nifty of an oath. The Judge therefore
asked the witness If he understood the
nature Of an oath, to which he replied,
'Yes, sah.'
SWELL" said his honor, "what is it?''
To which Mr.. Jones Immediately re-
piled, when you tell lie, stick to it. -

English as q Classic.

A generation ago the education of a
college man confined itself almost en-
tirely to a study of Latin, Greek, phi
losophy and metaphysics, while now
the study of history, economics and
other subjects Of practical bearing
predominates.,' Interest in the classical
languages has now largely abated,
even with persons who make study
of them. The student was formerly
supposed to get his training from Greek
and Latin; English he studied Incl
dentally. Now the study of English is
predominant in the American colleges.
This should not be considered, how
ever, as a disparagement of the prog.
ress Of American culture. 1t should be
remembered that the Greeks them
selves wrought out their wonderful cul:
>ture, literature and art entirely with.
out the aid of a foreign language. The
schoolboys Of Greece were required to
commit to memory the best poems OF
the language, notably the poems OF
Homer, which shaped their thoughts
conversation and acts and finally theil
character.-President Schurman as Re
ported In Cornell Sun.

Arrested as n Witness.

A dispatch from Winston.Salem, n.
c.. SAYS that J. f Witbeck, who may
prove an important witness for the pros
ecution in the Henry Kobre murder
case. was arrested in Petersburg, Sat
urday evening, and will be taken to
Winslon-Salem to testify what he knows
about the crime. Witbeck is the man
who, Salle Stewart has contended all
the time, gave her the first information
in fact, the details of the murder. He
was a resident of Winston-Salem when
Kobre was killed. Mr. Witbeck says
he knows nothing of the murder and was
not in Winslon-Salem the night 1t oc-
CURED (January 2D. The Winston-Sa-
lem journal of last Saturday printed a
statement made by Sallie Stewart In
which She duplicates Witbeck.
GWitbeck is native of Alexandria.
and at one time was an attaChe OF the
Portner Brewery. He was later trans
ferred to Wnston-Salem, where he was
in the employ Of the company until
last last Christmas. His services at
the breweryin this city were very
satisfactory, aud his many friends aud
