Belle Carter tfakei a Failure the Henderson House Last

Night

Last evening about 8 o'clock^* 1 Car ter, a youDg woman aged abou^ 24, and making her home at the Henderson House on south Fourth street, attempted to take her lite by swallowing a dose of laudanum. She has been working at the house off and on since last September as often as her health would permit. For some time past she has been subject to chills. She has been separated from her husband two years and the domestic infelicity which marked her married life is the probable cause for her rasto act.

At the hour slated last evening she arose from bed where she was lying with another girl of the house ani went out. The girl says Mrs. Carter has been using laudanum for some time, purchasing it at the drug store on the corner of Third and Walnut streets. Before she came in the room again she took nearly an ounce of the drug out of a smyall bottle. That is entirely too much to be used with fatal effect and when Dr. George W. Crapo was summoned he experienced but little difficulty in pumping it out of her stomach. "Mrs. Carter refused to tell where she purchased the drug and remonstrated with the doctor during his efforts to remove the poison, saying: "Let me a'one. 1 have nothing to live for and want to die."

She is the daughter ofEdward Watson, the cooper. This morning she was still in bed and her condition seemed to be very weak, though she is out of danger.

He came rushing into the shoe shop, the sweat standing in great drops on his face and apparently much excited and, in rather a suppressed tone, declared he heard a blue biad. The news spread over town like wild-fire, and that, too, long belore the auditor knew it, that there wasn't money enough to pay the teachers for what time they had taught. Surely, a prophet ia Israel, is here. I suggest that he make his predictions before school begins or that a law be passed to punish such for disturbing the public schools.

a Teacher's

How the Kramfaatiena are Conducted, the Questions, Bte* *,

T-

As noted in the GAZETTE at the time, the regular monthly examination of tbe county teachers, was held laat Saturday. The examination was conducted by the countv superintendent of schools, Mr. J. H.Allen.

A state law requires that no person shall teach in any pnblie school in this state, without a license, and further, that the county superintendent of public schools in each county, shall hold examinations once each month, when those desiring to obtain certificates, can present themselves, and go through the test.

Anyone obtaining an average standing of 65 per cent is entitled to a six months certificate a 75 per cent standing, allows a years license 85 per cent, one for 18 months and an average standing aver 95 per cent, calls for a two years license.

There are very few who attain that last mentioned standing, which is exceedingly good. If a teacher should be so fortunate as to obtain two two-years licenses in succession, he is relieved from all further examination, and given a perpetual license. This is a brief description of how our teachers obtain their situations. But nrobably a more minute account et the aind ot examination to which they are subjected would prove interesting.

The state board of education makes out a list of questions-each month, and the list is sent to every county* superintendent in the state.

The following is the list for January, and the one used at the examination last Saturday: :.v,

Rules

The writing of the candidate should be (fone in every case with pen and ink, to prevent erasures and changes. 4 All conversation or communication should bb absolutely forbidden during an examination. 5. At no time during the examination, should tbe questions be shown to persons not on examination, except such questions as the teachers are then being examined upon. 6. If the printed lists are used, they should be divided, so that no opportunity or temptation shall be given to applicants to refresh their minds at recess, by reference to authorities. 7. Do not permit candidates to ask questions. If they have any doubts as to the meaning of any question, let them be offered in writing, so that tbe Superintendent may examine them when ue examines the answers to the questions. 8. If any corrections are necessary, the candidate should not erase, but draw a single mark over the error, that tLe Superintendent may see the error as well as the correction. 9. These rules should be given the candidate before entering upon the examination. jfr.
