Sal Soda's Die.

Editor GAZETTE: I see in your issue of the 12th, in the Prairie Greek items, a statement by Sal Soda that the treasurer of the Prairie Greek Cornet Band was financially defaulter to said band. His statement is a lie out of whole cloth, whether manufactured by him or some other person I do not know. The treasurer is not a defaulter in any shape or form, and Sal Soda had better correct his statement and save himself trouble from the slander. A member of the Prairie Greek Cornet

Band.

[The GAZETTE is gratified to learn that the statement of "Sal Soda" referred to above is a mistake and arose from the fact that some receipts for money were lost, which have since been found. The band and neighborhood are fully satisfied that the treasurer has been exonerated from the charge.

SCHOOLEXHIBITION.

Where did Longfellow write his first poem? How did he achieve his first fame?

What interesting fact in regard to Hyperion? What do you regard as his first fa- & 1

His Dest known? ». Most popular? "MwtLip

After the above and a large number of other questions had been answered the pupils recited a number of the most beautiful poems. Then "The Village Blacksmith" was analyzed by question and answer in the most thorough man-

A BIG DINNER.

After the entertainment an elegant dinner was served to the patrons of the school.

In concluding the affair Supt. Van Gleave made a neat little address, stating that Miss Stevenson had a most successful school.

The Trade Dollar and its History. WASHINGTON, March 21.—Mitchell offered a resolution providing for the appointment of a special commission of five senators to inquire and report not later than the second Monday of next December as to the number of trade dollars put in circulation in the United States before their lepal tender quality was repealed how said coins came into circulation subsequently how many are still held in the several states of this country at what rates they were taken how much profit accrued 'in any way to the government by the coinage of trade dollars awi what been the practice of this and other governments as to the receipt or the refusal by them of

their own

coin. Beck and Harris objected to its present consideration and it was laid over, together with an ironical substitute offered by Cockrell proposing to authorize any two or more Senators to constitute themselves an investigating committee with a roving commission to inquire into any subjects they -may deem worthy of investigation "at home or abroad, on land or sea."

Hawley, rising to a question of privilege, called attention to an omission from the Congressional reqprd of some remarks made by VanWyck yesterdaj derogatory to members of the Soutb Awiftrimm commission which omission, he said, rendered the subsequent remarks of the other Senators somewhat unmeaning.

VanWyck explained that he had stricken out some parts of his remarks after consultation with the Senator from Missouri (Vest) as a matter of kindly feeling, and not because he thought he was wrong in his assertions.

A very lively debate occurred. Van Wyck introduced a formal resolution directing the official reporter to republish the proceedings of yesterday.

Teller defended his administration but Van Wyck's resolution was adopted.

Frye reported a resolution from the committee on rules directing that committee to prepare an official seal for the Senate of tue United States. Laid le over.

The Senate then went session.

The taffy pulling at Mr. Shattuck's Saturday night was a grand success. There were between forty And fifty persons present, hailing from all parts of the country. It was one of those oldfashioned times where everybody went for fun and everybody got it. The young people amused themselves with parlor and dancing games until supper was announced, then, as Sut Lovinggood says "the fun began" in real earnest. It was only until a late hour that the crowd dispersed and holding in remembrance this as one of the happiest evenings of their lives.
