sEMI.wAbHALLA CHILDREN
Make Splendid Records in the Schools
Z OF North, Carolina.

From the Concord IN. CO. Times
We copy the following extract from
the report OF the commencement ex-
ercfses OF the graded schools of that
city: h
The chairman of the school board
b. E. Harris, then In a few most APP
proprfate words presented the GER
t1hcates OF graduation to the large
class, after which Superintendent
Lentz awarded the scholarships tas
follows: ..,
Trinity College = Alfred Smith
Brewer.
Elizabeth College-Miss Margaret
Hendrix ~
University Of North Carolina
Clarence Edward Norman. This
scholarship was awarded to the boy
who made the highest average in his
studies. Mr.. Lentz stated that Mr..
Norman had not only made the high
est "yerage this year, but the high
est In the history Of the school since
his connection with It.
The annual literary address was
delivered by Hon. George B. Cromer,
LII. D., of Newberry, former Presi-
dent OF Newberry College. DR.. Gro
mer's address was the product Of
a master mind. He spoke on the
subject, ideals for Our Boys and
Girls" and pleaded with them to
have high ideals In life. He said
that In this day too much was made
of money-getting and not enough of
the higher things Of life. Education
is the liberation of power in every
department Of the worlds life, but
this alone saves nobody. 1t is the
education OF the heart and charac-
ter that has an eternal value, be-
cause character endures and nothing
can take it away. DR.. Cromer i'm
pressed on his hearers the great i'm
portance of Christian character, and
said the greatest in America was a
Christian gentleman"
Coincident with the statement
that Maggie Hendrix and Clarence
Norman won the scholarships at
Elizabeth College and the North Car
olina University, respectively, is the
fact that the fathers of these two
young people, John M. Hendrix and
V. l.. Norman, were for long time
prominent residents of Walhalla, and
Clarence Norman got his early train
ing in the splendid schools of our
town. We add our congratulations
to them for their success in wrestling
these honors from such a large class
of graduates, numbering 27, the larg-
est in the history. Of the school.

A Great Meeting.

The Sunday School Convention Of
Beaverdam Association met with Re-
turn church on May 30th. The con-
vention was largely attended, and
interesting from beginning to end.
1t was thought to be the most inter
esting we have ever had. There were
twenty-five schools represented by
eighty-five delegates.
The program was successfully car
ried out by the following speakers:
II. M, Elrod, j. d. Stonecypher, ]. w.
Shelor, Rev. s. A. Mcdaniel, E. P.
Wood, Rev. J. r. Moore, G.. r. d.
Burns, Rev. l.. r. Weldon, S. G.
Smith, Rev. w. Fl. Cole, Rev. J. D.

f. M. Cary, Rev. w. w. Keys, Rev.
J. H. Stone, A. p. Marett, VIM. M.
Brown, j. w. Duncan, w. N. Bruce.
We think the large delegation that
attended the convention will carry
back to their schools new life and
much good will be accomplished.
The parting prayer was led by
Rev. J. Fl. Stone, and we all returned
to our homes feeling we had attended
a great meeting, and had been boun-
tifully entertained by a good and
generous people.

TROLLEY RUMPUS
Aldermen Will Consider ihe Thowasfon Avenue LiUe al
 Monday Nights Hearing
ABOUT OTHER LINES

There is a great deal of talk going on to-day regarding the position of the board of aldermen relative to the recommendation of the depart ment of public works on the settle ment of the Thomaston avenue troll leyamatter and the company's appli- cation for turnouts. The matter will come before the aldermen Monday night. So far no caucus has been called or held on the question, and it is not likely that there will be, for if one can believe what he hears the board is about evenly divided on the matter, and 1t is quite likely that nothing definite will be done right away. The conditions have been published in the papers so that ev- erybody has ample opportunity to look them over, and if anybody does not like them and has something bet ter to offer, it will be perfectly proper for him to do so. On the other hand if the contract submitted is all right there is no reason why it should be, held up for sport. One of the strongest points being made against the proposed agreement is that it means nothing 50 far as the company is concerned, for they will carry out as much of it as suits their own purpose and wink at what they don't want. In support of this the unfinished Baldwin street line is pointed out, and when one considers that they went up there at their own terms and then failed to keep their contract, it cannot be denied that the company owes more to the city on that matter than an invitation to step into the courts and compel them to make good if they want the road finished Everybody is saying that the company should be obliged to complete the Baldwin stret project this summer.

SNAKE HUNTERS.
Will Be Out in Force Tomorrow to
 Down the RattIers.

The fifth annual snake drive of the Scaghticoke Rattlesnake club will be held tomorrow. The main party of snake hunters will leave Bridgeport in the morning on the S:30 o'clock train, to which will be attached 3 special car for the rattlesnalse hunt CTS. They will go to South Kent station, which is on the Berkshire di- vision of the New York, New Haven and Hartford road, whence the party will start for the snake fields. Four in-hands will be waiting to carry the party to the wigwam of President George Coggeswell on the Scaghti- coke Indian reservation. From there the hunters will proceed .in divisions under the guidance of experienced and careful snake hunters to the rat tlesnake den, mile up the monn- tain side Rattlesnake choWder, princess style, will be served at 2 o'clock sharp.
 The Scaghticoke club is composed chiefly of newspaper men, although in the annual hunt there are many guests present. A number from this clly dlWdyS take IL III dnu VIII ledt6y tomorrow morning early in order to meet the party at Bridgeport. It is wise to wear hunting boots or leg gings, for one cannot tell when rattler will jump at his legs. The hunts have been very successful ln the past and the round up to-lnor- row promises to be hisser. There will be plenty of antidotes for those that should happen to he bitten and the remedy given always takes. Jack" Walsh of this city, who has a small cage of rattlers ia this city, will be one of the foremost of the hunters. Talk about fish stories, they'll not be in it with the snake yarns John will give you on Monday morning.

Saturday morning, May 30, in regular service uniform, to par ticipate in the Memorial day exer- cises. This being the tenth anniver- sary of the war with Spain and the first time that this organization has turned out for any public occasion, it is the desire of this organization to show the public just how many branches of the service theie was in the late war which are at present represented in Waterbury. All mem bers who have no uniform will have one furnished them at the hall. Also all persons who participated in tue late war are requested to meet at the hall to join their ranks, and the camp would request them to wear their service uniforms.

 Men Who Tried to Role Him.

James F. Barnes who runs a laun- dry and lives on woodtic road was attacked by two men last night as he was going home. Barnes is a big fellow but the two men coming at him at once made him hustle. It was about midnight and the place was very dark where he WAS set upon. Robbery was eyidenly their object for one of the fellows grabbed Harness watch chain while tile other raised a stick to fell him. The watch chain broke in two thus saving the watch. The robber then turned to help his companion knock out the laundry man. But Barnes knocked him down with blow and kicked him all over. The other fellow he grasped by the neck and administer. ed a few punches in his face that no dcuht will make him remember the assauit for some time Barnes was busy all over. for while he was kick ing the fellow whom he knocked down he was trouncing the other fel- low with all the power of his fists. He threw him down finally, gave him a few kicks ard left both men laid out on the highway.
