State Normal Well Attended.

The fall term at the East Tenness
see state normal school continues to
be the most successful in the history
of the school, both in the matter of
number In attendance and abe CLASH
fication of students. A larger number
of men have registered than ever be-
fore for fall term, and the advance
correspondence indicates that there
will be a very large increase in enroll
ment with the opening Of the winter
term, January 2.
Already every place in the women's
dormitory is occupied and many
names are now on the reservation list.
The friends of the school aer earnest
ly hoping that the state will make pro-
vision for building additional dormito-
ries at the normal school. At the pres
ent time the school can accommodate
only 120 young women. No dormitory
for men has been provided. A large
dormitory for men and an additional
one for women, is imperative if the
school is to do the work that it ought
to do.
The normal school site of 100 acres
was given to the state by George l.,
Carter, and Washington and Johnson
City furnished the money with which
the buildings were erected. Aside from
its annual appropriation from the gen.
eral education fund, the state has
never made any direct contribution to
any of the normal schools.

SAUCY ARETHUSA
STRIKES A MINE
Famous British Fighting Ship
Feared a Probable
Wreck.

LONDON, Feb. 1.-THE admiral
tvs announcement that the Are
thusa had struck a mine and prob
ably was a wreck. brings widespread
regret as the cruiser was one Of the
most popular ships in the navy and
generally known as the "saucy Are
thusa" She was covered with scars
from many encounters and is believ-
ed to have been in more naval ac-
tons of the present war than any
other ship in the navy. Within three
days after leaving the ship yards,
where she was built, she was in a
naval fight in the North sea and had
the distinction Of firing the torpedo
which finally settled the fate Of the
German cruiser Bluecher. OF her
part in the Helgoland fight, the Of
fetal count at the time stated:
The Arethusa, leading the line
of destroyers. was first attacked by
two German cruisers and sharply
engaged for 80 minutes at a range
of 5000 yards, with the result that
she sustained some damage and
casualties. but drove off the cruisers,
one of which was seriously injured
by her six-inch guns"
The Arethusa later engaged two
other German ships and in company
with a light cruiser squadron con-
tributed TO the sinking of the Ger
man cruiser Maine. In this en-
counter many of the Arethusa' $
guns were disabled and she was
about to be overpowered when a
British battle SQUADRON opportunely
arrived and sank her antagonists.
Although one OF the smaller light
cruisers, her fighting qualities and
her exploits had given her a reputa-
ton Of embOdying the fighting spirit
OF the British navy.
