Letter from Trinity College.

Dnrham, n. C., June, 30. The cat
alogue OF the School of Education re-
Gently established at Trinity College
has just been issued. This schoolhas
a strong faculty of fifteen men, and
offers courses that will give teachers
throughout the State an opportuni-
to to prepare themselves for high
school work. The curriculum covers
two years. and the courses are so ar
ranged that teachers can take ten
hours in academic courses, five hours
in high school methods and admin
istration, and three hours in science
OF teaching. The Trinity Park School
and the Durham City School offer the
very best opportunity for teachers to
study high school work.
Hon. J. !. Joyner, Superintendent
OF Public Instruction, writing of the
School OF Education says:
Il am much pleased and encourage
ed by this important step OF the Col
lege in enlarging its School OF Educa-
tlon, and in providing such a course
Tor the preparation of teachers in
scholarship and professional educa-
ton. The means for such prepara-
ton have been inadequate, especially
lor the preparation OF men, either to
the needs or the demands of the
| public and private schools of the
State. am confident that such a
course OF study as | find outlined
mere Will add greatly to the service OF
the College, and will be a distinct and
most valuable contribution to the
advancement of education in the
State.'
Special boarding arrangements are
belng made for both men and women,
NO charge will be made for tuition.

CASTUP OF THE FIGHT.
Total Receipts Amounted to $77o,775
Richard and Gleason VIII Have a
Profit of $4,000.

Reno, New, July Tex Richard
gave out an official statement OF re-
ceipts and attendance at the fight. 1t
shows the gate receipts totaled $21O-
775. Those that paid admission
numbered 15, ,760.
In addition to those who paid to
see the fight, Rickard says there were
76O complimentary tickets given to
the press and others. He estimated
the number that slipped in at various
places around the arena, breaking
holes in the boarding or climbing to
the rim OF the structure at /, 500. All
told, the attendance given as 19, ,O20.
There were sold ,25S seats at $50,
$50 at $40, 634 at $50, ], ,507 at $25,
1,457 at $50, 1,7Oe at $15, and $3.50
at so.
The purse, with bonuses given the
two fighters, amounted to S121, 900,
and Rickard figured that his expert
ence at San Francisco cost him about
$4,000. Thus he and his partner,
Gleason will have a profit OF about
100000.

Things That Joe King Thinks.
Durham Herald

ImuSS Auot JUG AiH6 AAInAo'
Durham Herald,
Mr.. Manning at least showed what
sort of q Judge he would make before
asking for the nomination.
II the kitchin machine Is backing
Judge Manning who is the Simmons
machine standing out for?
1t will not do to stop prize fighting
altogether until somebody puts the
kibOsh all over Johnson.
II the recent campaign did not hurt
the party in Wake, then there is moth
ing for it to fear in the future.
There will perhaps be no objection
to that set OF rascals voting the
ticket in Wake county this fall.
As they did not have a picture of
Dr. Faison on hand they must not
have been expecting him to get it.
1t would be just as we'll for the
South to sit still and let the balance
OF the country tear its shirt over the
matter.
The machine may be for Judge
Manning, but it is the same machine
that tried to down Mr. Kitchin at
Charlotte.
They may tell us that all has been
forgotten in Wake, but those who
know anything about politics know
| better than that.
If the negro had been put to sleep
the affair would not have been so
brutal and we would not have minded
looking at the pictures.
Communities that make it a busi-
ness of turning murderers loose
should keep their mouths shut about
the brutality Of the prize ring.
We do not mind them stopping the
pictures, but let them find out that
they can stop that and they will be
wanting to stop something else.
AS most of the picture shows are
run for white people only and we do
not have to attend them unless we
want to, there is no use to throw a
fit over it.
The negro who entered a Rale igh
restaurant and asked for "Jack
Johnson pie" got served all right.
However, the pie was a squash
alongside his head with a bottle.
A minister is thinking about run
ming for the Legislature in Wake
cOunty-and Wake county politicians
are not given to saying things fit
for ministers's ears to hear at best.
Some of those who are now deplor-
ing the fact that Jeffries put himself
on level with the negro, were three
months ago wanting him to go into
the ring and knock the stuffing out
OF him.
But it must be admitted that as
much brutes as are Jeffries and John
son they not as much brutes as those
people who pulled each other of
street cars and otherwise acted in
barbaric manner in the cities of the
| east.
II the Republicans want to do the
nice thing, let them refuse to put out
a candidate for the Legislature. Oh
course he is Democrat, but he
would represent the town and the
county and they would not lose any
thing by it.
While that sort of talk makes good
campaign thunder, the party does
not want to put the American Tobac.
co Company out OF business or out oI
the State. Ii you think this is not
true, just watch the party when it is
up against a proposition of this
kind.
We are afraid now as we have beer
all along, that our candidate has
been defeated, yet those of use who
know him are still his friends. One
thing that is everlastingly to hi.
credit is that in this day Of SHARP
practice among lawyers no firm Will
which he has been connected has eve
been accused of anything of the kind

Different Kinds Of Liars.
Greensboro Record.

By the way, did any one ever hear
OF an alienist going counter in his
opinion to that desired by the side
employing him? Not much. A defend
ant sets up the insanity dodge and
every last one of the experts employ
ed by him will say he is crazy. 1t is
the same with the prosecution. At
torneys pay for what they want and
they get it. Some old Judge in South
Carolina remarked in his charge to a
jury not long ago that there were
several kinds OF liars-the plain liar,
the d liar and the expert.

AFTERNOON GAME.

The afternoon game came nearer to
slipping into the lost column than did
the morning contest, but Danville. dis
playing greater base ball generalship
than their opponents managed to score
eight runs on four hits while Nesco-
peck with 10 safeties, three of which
were for extra bases, counted but five
times.
Both teams used two pitchers Aims
worth began the work ON the slab for
Danville, but was in the throes of an
off day, and although he was in perfect
control of the ball and had tlfem break
ing to suit, the Nescopeck batters lust
naturally seemed to find whatever he
sent up. They totaled nine hits off his
delivery in the first four innings and
scored their five runs.
Brannen then relieved Ainsworth.
and in the five innings during which
he did the tossing, Necospeck made
but one safe connection and no counts
came after the fourth.
Danville scored two in the second
and three in the third, so that at the
end of the fourth innings the score
was tie at 5 to 8. p Murray started

MORNING GAME.

The morning game at Nescopeck was
easily won. Peck" Rowe pitched
fine ball for Danville, allowing but
three hits, one of which was coupled
with an error in the first innings and
was converted into tally. After that
Nescopeck faced stone wall and fail
ed to score another run.
Danville started in the second when
Wagner scored after his single was
followed by a wild pitch, a base on
balls and sacrifice.
Again in the fourth. Nipple got life
on the short stops error and Wanger
hit over the right field fence for "a
home run. In the fifth two errors, a
sacrifice and Umlauf's hit scored two
more. After that Madrea tightened
and prevented further scoring.
But the details of this game are
rather superfluous for Secretary Ralph
Kisner, ever watchful guardian of the
interests of the Danville team, had
Nescopeck's goat before the game be-
gan. Mr.. Kisner persuaded the custod-
ian of that important animal to hire
his Nannyship for the morning and he
was lead, life-size and kicking, into
the grand stand to sit among the DAN
willie rooters during Nescopeck's OBJ
sequies.

MILTON MAN SUICIDES

Charles E. Gartman, a well known
tobacconist of Milton, and assessor of
the Third ward of that town. commit
ted suicide about four O'Clock Tuesday
afternoon, by shooting himself in the
right temple. The deed was commit
ted on the third pier of the river
bridge. The Reading call boy was pass
ing nearby and heard the shot. He
looked back and saw the body of Mr.
Gartman. He at once gave the alarm.
The deceased was a single man who
has resided in Milton for upwards of
twenty-five years. He kept cigar
store near the corner of Broadway and
Front streets until last month, when
he vacated the place to make room for
the new building now being erected
there. No cause can be assigned for
his act. He had his revolver repaired
Tuesday morning and about an hour
before committing the rash act had
conversed with several friends in his
accustomed happy mood.

MAYS LOW
DEATH RATE

The death rate during the month of
May was lower than for any time since
the bureau of vital statistics was est
ablished. Fifteen deaths, four of which
occurred at the Hospital for the in
sane, were reported in this district. In
April seventeen deaths along with
twentyfour births were reported.
The highest death rate in this dis
trict since 1906, was noted in March
when forty-four deaths, thirteen of
which took place at the hospital for
the insane, were reported by the local
registrar. Even last summer, during
July and August, the number of deaths
reported were respectively twenty
three and twenty-six. In view of these
figures the death rate for May was
phenomenally low and might be hard
to account for.
During the month there were no
deaths of contagious diseases. OF the
latter there were reported: typhoid
fever, three cases; diphtheria, four
cases; erysipelas, one case measles,
three cases; pneumonia, one case. Dur
ing April no cases were reported of
either diphtheria or scarlet fever, dis
eases which had been lurking in the
district for many months previously.
1t was thought that both had been eff
fectually stamped out, but as shown
by the report for May diphtheria has
again made its appearance.
The general health, however, is all
that could be desired and conditions
are favorable for prolongation of the
low mortality reported for May.

HEAVY WHEAT

As result of the abundant rains
the country never presented a more
flourishing appearance than at present.
The corn and oats, it is true, appear
somewhat retarded due to the cool
weather, but little later they will
regain what has been lost. The grass
aud wheat both promise good crop.
The wheat, especially, never present.
ed a more luxuriant appearance. 1t is
already in heads and advanced we'll
along toward maturity.
Owing to the fact that the season
opened three weeks earlier than usual
it would not be surprising if harvest
should come on by the first of July.
The wheat fields present a beautiful
sight. A drive.of ten miles from Dan
vile in any direction reveals the same
state of things. Nowhere is there a
failure of wheat visible. Reports from
other localities are the same. In gem
eral the prospects are brighter at this
time of the year than for many sea-
sons past.
The prospects have had depressing
effect on prices. Wheat, which last
year sold as high as SLIGO per bushel,
has dropped to asdollar. The latter is
the price paid by local dealers.
AS experts-fgure it the visible sup
ply of winter wheat is 26, 800, 600
bushels greater than:at this time last
year. 1t is estimated that 100, 0OO 600
bushels of the present crop will be
carried over into next year.

to do the twirling for Nescopeck and
his relief arrived in the midst of the
third innings, but Madera's substitu-
tion did not prevent Danville from
scoring three runs in that innings.
With MADEIRA in the box what at first
promised to be swat fest was avert
ed. While MADEIRA allowed but one hit
after the third, sundry passed balls,
wild pitches, errors and bases on balls
were converted into the three winning
runs.
One of the largest crowds ever on
the Danville field witnessed the after
noon game here, there being 1880 paid
admissions.
