Teachers Institute.

The County Institute for the white
teachers of Monroe county will be
held at the public school building at
Aberdeen, beginning on Monday,
August 80, and continuing one week
The Institute will be conducted by
Professor Weathersby, of Mississippi
College. Prof. Weathersby is an ex-
perienced Institute man and is an
able educator, and, with the hearty
cooperation of all teachers, will give
US the best Institute we ever had. His
work is specially adapted to the needs
of our country teachers, and is in
tended to help them solve the prob
lens with which they are so frequent
ly confronted.
The County Superintendent expects
every teacher in the county to attend
this Institute, and to spend five days
in earnest, faithful work to increase
their usefulness in their respective
communities.
We had a successful Teachers In
stitute in this county last year, with
about ninety per cent. of the teachers
of the county in attendance. And as
result of that Institute the Superin-
tendent could see decided improve
ment in the work of nearly all the
teachers who attended. Teachers who
attend Institutes and Teachers Asso-
Citations are worth more TO the coun-
tY than teachers of similar grade who
do not attend. And those teachers
who neglect this opportunity for i'm
provement will not receive salaries
equal to the salaries of those who
take advantage of it. Let every teach
er in the county come.
Respectfully,
E. E. COWLEY,

New York, July 10.-George w
Lloyd, who was a Confederate spy
and for many years the guardian of
Thomas Paine's grave at New
Rochelle, died last night in the
Westminster County Almshouse.
He was eighty years old, and a
native of Providence, r. /.
As a young man Capt. Lloyd de-
veloped extreme views on personal
liberty, and was a leader Of the
Dorr rebellion in Massachusetts
against property qualifications.
When the civil war began he was
employed i'm the New York custom
house, and in 1861 he ran for the
office Of supervisor Of New Rochelle,
on a platform endorsing the Con
federate Constitution. A band of
citizens visited him, at night and
threatened to burn his house unless
he hung out the stars and stripes.
His wife defended the house with a
small cannon, but the mob broke
down the door. Lloyd was dragged
out, but refused to give away. He
fled to New York, walked many
days and nights to get through the
Federal lines to Kentucky, and
Joined the Confederate service. As
wandering fife player he often
entered the Union lines. Later he
received a contract from the Con-
federate government for 10000
crutches, and at the close Of the
war he returned to New York with
about SO, 900 in Confederate
money. After that he made a
living by hiring QUO fishing boats
in New Rochelle.

Stage LaureIs World Wide

Coquelins stage laurels were gathered
around the world. His genius tran
scended the restrictions of a single
tongue In France the last half CEN
tury of the drama is inseparably inter-
tWlned with his career; in America his
sympathetic character portrayal and his
almost Yankee comedy perception gave
him a place to which few foreigners
could attain; in Germany he was hailed
as an authority on matters pertaining
to the theater.
The noted actor will be remembered
by San FranciScanS in connection with
ms visit here in 1901 when he played
at the old Grand opera house in Mission
street with Sarah Bernhard He
played Flambeau to her duke of Reich
stadt in Rostand's "PAiglon"; but it
was as Cyrano that he scored his great
est triumph here. 1t was the good for
performance of that engagement to see
Coquelin's portrayal of light comedy
parts. He was particularly effective in
a bit of monologue in which he depicted
the idIosynerasies Of q somewhat pom
pous Englishman. Even those to whom
the words were unintelligible grasped
the keen humor of his expressive move
ments and gestures
It was in 1860, when he was but 49,
that Coquelin made his debut He had
taken the second prize for comedy the
year before. His early successes were
in Figaro and "Misanthrope" An
afflliation with the Theater Fraincais
was interrupted in 1888 and again in
turn to Paris in 1894 he entered into an
engagement with the Renaissance the
ater. This led to a lawsuit with the
Comedfe FrancaiSe, In which the actor
was compelled to pay damages. His
last visit to America was In 1901.
Coquelin gained renown as a writer
and lecturer on the drama and some Of
his works are standard.

LAWYERS NEGLECT COSTS
HIM FEES FOR JURORS
Fails to Notify Court of Delay
and Is Made to Foot Bill

Because he was not ready to pro-
ceed with the trial of the case of
Fred W. Wise against the United
Railroads when it was called yester-
day, Attorney Otto Irving Wise, coun-
sci for the plaintiff, was ordered by
Judge Sturtevant to pay the fees of a
jury and Of the official reporter, to-
falling S34.
Lawyer Wise pleaded that he was
actually engaged in the trial of q case
in another department of the superior
court. This was not valid excuse
Judge Sturtevant told him, because he
should have notified the court of this
fact several days ago and thus per-
mitted other arrangements to be made
AS it was, Judge Sturtevant said, the
time of the court for the day was
wasted Twelve jurors were drawn
but not sworn. and were paid 81 each
and discharged. The case then went
over to Monday for trial, retaining
its place on the calendar.
Fred w. Wise is a teamster. He is
suing the United Railroads for $4,000
damages. for serious internal injuries
sustained in a collision between a
streetcar and his team.

NEWEST SENATOR
AFTER HARTMAN
Bristow Says Magnate Should
Be in Penitentiary for
LOOting Alton
Declares That Four Men Got
S56,OOO,OOO Out of
Watered Stock
Especial Dispatch TO The Call


TOPEKA, Kans.. Jan. 27=when
Joseph i. Bristow was elected United
States senator from Kansas by the
Legislature today he was called upon
for speech. In prepared address he
declared that George J. Gould, E H.
Hartman and James Stillman should
be imprisoned for their part in looting
the Chicago and Alton railroad COM
pany of s1O4 100000 by increasing it's
bonded debt and stock
Bristow said in part: This property.
prosperous and honestly conducted
railroad, was loaded with an indebted
ness of $62 100000, or about $4,000
per mile, for which not dollar was
added to the value of the property. but
from which the four men of the syndi-
cate personally netted about $50. 900, 900.
Mr.. Hartman was voted from the pro-
ceeds of the road $104, 900 as his com
pensation for services as chairman Of
the executive committee that managed
these transactions.
Now the present owners are de-
manding rates from the people that
will enable them to meet the obliga-
edness
1T should be just as easy to send a
man to prison for rObbing a railroad
of $50 100000 as it is to send the
man who robs a postoffice."
