Miss Kreuger's piano solo on last Friday afternoon was excellent. Mr. Sharp has been absent for several days on account of sickness. Wait a minute and I will help you up. At last the much needed scats have been supplied for tbe History class. Just keep your seat we prefer standing. Could not a collection be raised with which to supply hymn books for the school. Mr. Malott, of Bedford, visited Prep, last Friday. Mif Kartell will not return to Prep, this term. Mr. Koons has returned to tchoool
much improved ia health. j
Hr. Abraham will not be with us next term. Prof. Beck attended the teachers' institute at Lawrenceburg, last week. Frank Shoemaker, as a bob-sled pilot, has few equals.
..Prof. Beck being; absent the Brtt
part of the week. Miss IMincan took charge of his Latin class.
,.. As a party of jolly Preps, were de
scending a steep incline at lightning speed, on a bob-sled, but we will not
continue, it orings up unpleasant recollections. We wish to offer our congratulations to Messrs. Cunningham and Shoemaker on the admirable way in which they acquitted themselves of their duet on last Friday afternoon. ,.., Because of the theory, advanced by one of our Professors, last term, that a walk just after breakfast is unhealthy, the Faculty have so arranged tbe chapel exercises that we now take our walk before breakfast. .....Attention! Politicians! On next Friday afternoon the question, "Should tbe present tariff system be contined 7" will he debated by some of our most competent orators. This troublesome question will then he so thoroughly exhausted
as to leave little room for lurtber debating by our campaign orators this fall..
...We will consider it a favor on the
part of any or tha students if they will inform us of all items that come under
their notice. Let us kn w what you are
doing, what you are going to do, what
your mends are doing ana in lact any thing that anybody connected wiih Prep.
is doing or intends to do, anrwnere. What with Latin, Klooution, History, Arithmetic, Rhetorical axercises, etc., etc., we find it hard to collect near all the items. The debate on last Friday afternoon was something of novcUr, the contest
ants bsine Hisses Perry aad Iluneun vs.
ktiuss Duncan and Parry. Tbe question
was "Resolved that the career of Ataxan der was of mare benefit to the civilized world than that of Cewar." Both acquitted themselves well. Decided in tbe neg. The music was good. Tbe declamatiens'of Misses Lindley and Feltus, the speech of Mr. Olamnn, and the variety spoecl es of Messrs. Allen and Hadley were very interesting. The essay of Mr. Cravens was considered qua! to the productions of Bill Nye ; Miss Kreuger seemed to be decidedly of that opinion.
Frank Shanks, a brakeman on a freight train, was struck by a
bridge, Monday morning, near Smith ville, as he was climbing out
to the top of tho caboose. His nose was broken, and three deep gashes ciit in his forehead. Hi injuries are serious and the result iu uncertainly. His wounds were dressed by Drs. Simpson, Maxwell ud Humpston
The proceedings of the mass
meeting of Republicans last Satsrday were characterized by a degree of harmony and unity of purpose seldom seen in a meeting where the attendance is so full. The selection
by the newly appointed central
committee .ot Hon. H. C. Duncan
as its Chairman was a happy, solution of a vexed question, the inside
history of which it is useless to de
tail. Mr. Duncan is a Republican
of broad liberal views, and yet his
allegiance to bis party cannot be questioned. He served dari ng sev
eral campaigns as Chairman of tbe
Renublican central committee of
Lawrence county, and in on accept-
able and always successful manner.
He is not a man.-who is given to
display, but will do more quiet, ef
fective work than any one who does
not know him well has any idea
of. Ha is the only Republican tn
the United 8tates who ever carried
Polk township he did it in his
race for Prosecutor, by a majority
of 53. Let every Republican stand '
by Mr. Duncan during the ap
proaching campaign, and all will
be well in Monroe county.
The speech of Hon. Mr. Grif
fiths, last Satorday afternoon, was
an effort worthy of that talented gentleman's reputation. He is
without doubt one of the best post
ed politicians in tbe State, and adds to an esae of manner and a 'certain degree ot magnetism a ready com
mand of laueoaee that makes it a
pleasure to listen to -him. Mr. Grif
fiths will be heard agsin in Monroe county before the next Republican
President is elected.
By reading over the list of names comprising the Republican county central committee, it will be seen that they are nearly all new men, and (bat tbe list is not
loaded down with names merely for show. Men hsve been selected who it is believed will take an interest in the work to be done, and so far aa we are able to judge, better selections could not have been made.
All is harmony, peace and quiet in the Republican party, and each member wears s sprig of olive
in his upper left band button hole as a constant reminder thereof. The county Democracy are not so harmonious, however they imag
ine they have strength, and in their
great thirst , for office will trample each other under foot in the mad
rush for nominations this summer.
This Is very naughty of them.
Dr. J. Q. McPheeters celebrated bis 78th birthday auoiversary on Saturday last. A family dinner was one of the events of - tbe day, and the Doctor, who seems to be in better health than usual, enjoyed the occasion fully. The Progress hopes to be able to chronicle a pleasant birthday reunion at the Doctor's home in January, 1889, H. T. Simmons, the elotbing man, ia evidently trying to get op a "corner" on other branches of business, be having had a son introduced to his family on Friday last.
He will be compelled to crowd that
clearance sale now.
