On Wednesday, after being out only
fifteen minutes, the jury returned a
verdict of not guilty in favor of
Robert Wood, the young artist, who
was charged with the murder OF
PHYLLIS Dimmock, a woman of the

in the courtroom itself, cheer after
cheer greeting the verdict and even
the barristers joining. In fact, the
only man in court who preserved
calmness was the prisoner himself.

The past few days have been
cool enough for fires, and there
was light frost Tuesday morning.
The spring has been a remarkable
one. Old citizens tell us that it
reminds them of the year l849,
when all the fruit and corn and
cotton was killed and the woods
was covered with a heavy mantle
Of black leaves. The fall was late
that year, and good crops were
made in this section.
when the word of the death, on
May 6, of the Rev. John Watson
Ian Maclaren) was received in
London, W. Robertson Nicoll, ed
itor of the British Weekly; cabled
this tribute to the Sunday School
Times, Philadelphia: "No man was
more generally beloved Of all the
Britons / have known. He had
the greatestaffection for America.
He loved the land and the people,
and seriously thought, on his re-
'tirement, of settling down there as
a. private citizen"
School closed at Benton Semi
nary last Friday, and the students
separated for their respective
homes. Quite a number of out of
town students remained to attend
the normal. The board of educa-
tion has reelected the old faculty,
Profs. W. FL. Gingles, B. D.John-
son, and Mrs. Lois Woods, which
is entirely satisfactory to the pat
rons Of the school. The term just
closed has been one of the most
successful ever taught here, and
while the attendance has been lar
ger than ever before, it is our pre-
diction that it has not yet reached
the high water mark, but next year
will see much larger attendance
and, if possible, better school.
