'As the results of the elections were
echoing over mountain, hill top and
valley, proclaiming the defeat of the most
brilliant American platform orator, and
announcing the election of Judge Taft,
the popular and winning candidate OF
the Republican party, 10000 pupils,
teachers and alumni of the Woodward
Cincinnati High School, assembled TO
witness the laying of the corner stone of
the Woodward High School building.
The parade was an imposing feature con-
sisting OF 10000 pupils in line of old grad
yates, educational board and teachers,
including 100 young women, all bearing
the blue ensign with the white letters
Woodward, marched in line. Judge
Taft seated in carriage, with Messrs.
Schwab, Harper and Withrow waited at
Government Square 20 join the parade.

Her instructor, after laboring long and
patiently to instill ray OF light into
her mind on the subject, finally sue.
ceeded in getting some good examples
from the child which would seem to
prove that the difference was at last
recognized and appreciated. The
teacher paused for moment and de.
manded Of the child correct explana.
ton Of the difference as she saw It.
The girl answered beamingly. She
was sure Of herself, but 1t took some
thinking to express Just what she
wanted to say. However, after much
inward tunault and obvious effort, the
following statement was heard:

Judge Pike Now In Race

Considerable interest has been
aroused in political circles in Reno by
the announcement made by the friends
of Judge w. II. A. Pike, of the Washoe
district, that the jurist would resign
his position if nominated by the demo
cratic party as a candidate for congress.
With the announcement boom has
been sprung for Judge Pike and is
now attaining considerable proportions.
The fight between Pat McCarren, dis
trict attorney of Nye county, and Con-
gresham Bartlett for nomination, has
reached almost an acute stage and the
talk Of bringing out third man to
settle the fight has been rampant for a
week. Pike is the man, so the Judges
friends say, and they are Justify boost
ing for the Washoe county man He is
good campaigner and has wide
acquaintance over the state. He would
make formidable opponent for any
man. Virginia Chronicle.

bylaws of such an organization, all prepared, was presented. The purpose of the organization was said to be as follows: "To secure the benefits of elevated, rational enjoyment and of substantial improvement which books can give." That was a worthy though also somewhat wordy statement. The form of organization proposed and &C., cepted was that of a stock company. Shares of stock were to be issued at three dollars each, only one share to be sold to any one person, each sharehold- CT to be voting member of the asso-
 citation, and to have the use of its privi- leges. Later, in 1875, the shares were raised to four dollars each, and all or iginal shareholders were assessed an extra dollar, so putting all members on a par as holding shares at four dollars,
 instead of three dollars each. The association could also lay a yearly tax

not to exceed one dollar on each share holder, and as matter of fact such yearly due or tax seems usually to have been collected.

 At this first meeting the stock com pany organized with twenty-one mem bers. Simeon Mitchell was elected the first President, and D. N. Garfield, Treasurer. MT Gum was a member of the executive committee. After three years MT Gum became the President and stayed as the President for four teen years, until 1869, when Sheldon Logan became President and continued such fifteen years, until the organiza-
