y
men had their first engagement
yesterday in making the music in
a Democratic parade from Green's
boro to Denton, Md. The boys left
on Monday evening to fill their en-
gagement and of course it was to
them an important event. They
were accompanied by their tutor,
Prof. Rauscher, and of course gave
them the best music they had in
their repertoire. The election in
Maryland will come off next Tues
day.

The Presbyterian Church is hav-
ing wide pavement laid in front
by substantial curbing
which also extends from the front
on the east side to the entrance of
the chapel at the rear. The space
between the pavement at the front
and the church and between the
entrance at either tower has been
nicely sodded and the whole is to
be enclosed by neat iron fence
set on stone coping. 1t was the
of the congregation to
get in their chapel next Sunday
put by mistake in making the
windows not observed until they
we're ready to put them in per-
nanently, the use of the house will
De further delayed.

THE SCHOOL BUILDING The
placing Of quill, the insignis Of
scholarship, on the Top Of the new
school building as its final wealth
srvane, was very appropriate and
The tower only needs
stating to complete it, and stands
100 feet high. The new school
bell which came from the Buckeye
Of Cincinnati, Ohio, and
weighs $50 lbs. has been received
and only awaits the nearer COM
pletion Of the building to be placed
ri position. It's tone is said to be
very resonant and soft for school
