DEGREE OF A. M. FOR PROF. JOHN
HOPE.

It is learned from a reliable source
that Brown University at Providence,
R. l., which is the oldest Baptist
school in the United States, con-
ferred the degree of Master of Arts
upon Prof John Hope on Wednesday,
June 10. Prof Hope, who is grad
uate of Roger Williams University,
was acting president Of the Atlanta
Baptist College during last year. He
was elected by the Home Mission So
ciety of New York on the 10th inst.
to the presidency of the college. This
promotion came as a hearty endorse
ment of his administration of affairs
during the last school year, and the
comforting OF the degree by such a
school as Brown University adds an
other recognition to the Negro on the
higher educational basis, as it is
known that Brown University is very
particular about comforting degrees.

FLOW AT BELLE PLANE.
Hopes of Artesian Well Men Are a
Highest Pitch.

Belle Plaine.-At a depth of nearly
1900 feet has been reached the white
water-bearing sand of the St. Peter
sandstone in the deep artesian we'll
which has been in progress of drilling
here for the last year for city water
supply. The water is now within
twenty feet of the surface and is rails
ing. The artesian well men are in
high hopes of a flow, as the sandstone
has been penetrated only dozen
feet. The water mains Of the 100000
water works system put in here last
season are ready for the water, which
is very pure and excellent for all
purposes except a little hard for boil
er water. In seeking water supply
for the city water works, counsel was
taken with the Iowa state and the
United States geological surveys, and
their predictions have exactly mater
ialized.
