Teachers Give Farewell Party to
Those of Their Number Who
Will Not Return.

Thursday evening after school the
plymouth teachers, with plans afore-
thought, slipped into the Superin-
tendeat's office while he was not
about. With speed and quiet they
made some transformation there
and sent for Mr.. Randall. When
he walked in he found tables set in
dainty style. Twenty-Five teachers
sat down and were served by the
Misses Langdon, Protsman and
Southwick to a delic ;ous luncheon
consisting of Strawberries, ice cream
and cake. For the last course they
had toasts, not dry.
The party was in the nature of
farewell to these teachers who VIII
not return next year, and they were
each given an opportunity to speak
for themselves. Mr.. Mcdowell
acted as toast-master.
Miss -Chesney made a witty re
Spouse to the toast, Matrimonial
Prospects IN the West"
Mr.. Schell gave an illustrated
talk on "What l Can Say in Two
Minutes. -
Mr.. Harris toasted to a finish,
"Our Departing Friends. -
Mr.. McKessen relieved his mind
on the subject, "The Profession I
am Leaving. -
Miss Wilcox referred beautifully
to pheasant Memories of Plym-
outh.
Mr.. Randall s speech very nearly |
broke up the meeting. for there have
been the most cordial ard kindly
relations between him and his fellow
end his words of farewell
we're full of the sadness of parting.

inc memorial, on the death of our
sister member, Caroline Craig:
Another link in our fraternal
chain has been broken. Another

well. is vacant and draped in fond
memory of her faithfulness and
efficient work.
Resolved That we condole with
the sorrowing friends in their be-
reavement; and while they mourn
her as wife, mother and sister, we
as company of our fraternal order
do wish to express our heartfelt
sympathies for them in their great
sorrow. We mourn her as a loyal,
true friend of "The Veterans and
his dependent ones," and who had
the respect and esteem of us ALL
Resolved That a copy of these
resolutions be sent to the family of
the deceased, and that they be pub
lished in the Plymouth papers.

The Revolver.
BY RENE LEcEUR.

Five dollars, sir 1t is an excellent
weapon, which will bring down a man at
distance of so yards. "
Mr.. Varin fingered the revolver GIN
gerly and tried to appear calm, though
his wife's unfaithfulness had filled him
with such despair that his only thought
was death.
He had married her because she was
beautiful, although she did not possess
a penny, and had taken her to a COM
Portable home, where she soon felt bored
to death becadse she had nothing to do
but to look pretty
After while she grew tired Of her
uninteresting, careless husband, and
yesterday she had eloped with hand
some young man of means and leisure,
who filled her ears with all the pretty
words she had once longed to hear from
the lips of her husband, who had felt
too secure of his possession of her to
waste any compliments upon her, though
he loved her as much as it was possible
for shallow nature like his to love
woman.
Mr.. Warm paid for the revolver, hailed
a cab and drove home with the inten-
ton of ending his life in the rooms

where every little thing reminded him

where every little thing reminded him
of her.
Standing in front of the big mirror in
their bedroom, he pressed the cold muz.
zle Of the revolver against his temple
and shivered. He saw the whole scene
that was to follow, the discovery of his
lifeless body by the police, the arrival
Of the doctor, who pronounced him
dead, the street outside his house filled
with a curious crowd. Then he thought
of his wife, to whom the news of his
death would perhaps come as a welcome
relief, and resolved to live for revenge.
His one aim would now be to catch the
guilty couple and kill them both before
giving himself up to the police. He
saw himself the hero of sensational
trial, ending with the jury acquitting
him for applying the unwritten law to
out the stain upon his honor.
This prospect being far more alluring
than that Of suicide, he went to bed to
dream Of the dreadful punishment he
would inflict upon the two who had
wrecked his happiness.
The next morning, a cold, gray,
cherries morning in December, he got
up as usual and sat down to eat his
breakfast alone before he went to his
office.
Many long, monotonous days fol-
lowed this, but gradually he grew used
to his loneliness and no longer under
stood his first excitement, but to his
colleagues he still posed as the stern,
husband, who lived only in
order to get revenge. Furiously dipping
his pen in the ink, he said time and
lime again, in voice that trembled
With Indignation; Some day | will
catch the two and then | will kill them, |
f have to give up my own life to the
,allows for i'll"
The others tried to calm him, but
lie refused to listen to them Never,
never will forgive or forget II think
90 much of my honor for that.
After a while the others grew tired of
lis eruptions ard did not appear to
notice them at ALL and as for Varin
himself, the whole affair had long ago
eased to interest him. When he was
lone he surprised himself, feeling quite
lappy at the thought Of being free
nan once more, and one day in July he
Tipped the still loaded revolver into his
'ocket, walked down to the river and
auntered along the drive.
1t was a real summer day, light and
OF, as such days are in New York.
Women passed by, dressed in the light
st of gossamer gowns with low neck
nd short sleeves, looking like flowers
Ist breaking out of the buds. Mr..
arin looked at them, sold his revolver
} one of the second hand dealers on the
uay and hurried after a pretty young
ling, whom he invited to take lunch
it'll him.

sor was. He has managed to make a
mistake nearly every time he has played
politics.
At the same time. there ism t any
doubt in my mind that he will be re-
nominated, or that even the leaders
among the insurgent Republicans, who
are making so much noise now, will all
fall in line for him at the next election.
That will mean that the Democrats
should elect President, for the mass
of the common people who, after all,
cast the votes, will blame every mistake
and everything else that the Republican
party stands for on the President, and
he Lord knows the Republicans have
enough to answer for, even without
their mistakes z
SAW MEMPHIS DURING MORNING.
None of the members of the party
would venture a guess as to who the
Democratic candidate for the Presidency
may be, either from motives of modesty
or because they did not wish to let in
side secrets loose so far in advance |
About this time, in fact, the entire
party was warned that it was nearly
train time, and proceeded to their spe-
Gial car for the return to Washington.
