Mitchell House Corner Yoinq Female College Commencement. Our reports from day to day have given in detail the exercises that have attended the commencement of Young Female College that has just closed. Now that they are of the past, and looking at them in their entirety, it. is sale to sav that the daily programme exceeded in attractiveness any that has been idven at any preceding com mencement. This was to be expected, and might he said to lie a natural sc- qucnce following the most prosperous term the college has ever kuown. It is always pleasant to hear testi- to work well done, and in this ctake the agreeable opportunity ’ that the graduation papers,and. xercises participated in by the undergraduates of the institution, gave of thorough work on the teachers, aud time well the pupils themselves. I always he something in attitude with which commencement audi- to tXm the symbol of the greVit world, t)\t appeals with strong power to the sympathy of those that havq passed from under the shadow of morning he went forth, like unto three year ota7bui even before noon tide, ere the sun had passed tite me ridian, while walking around in a med itative way, reflecting, maybe, on past shortcomings, . the end came. As he munched the green grass and chuckled, perhaps, at thoughts ot his numerous escapades and runaways; even in the .midst of these reflections, he disappeared— disappeared down into a deep, x aban doned well on the judge’s lot—and from it he came not forth alive; but lifeless and limp the old family horse wa§ drawn out with block and fekle. There was a humorous vein, so to speak, mellowed by age and experi ence, in his make up A friskiness, at limes, which comported not with his venerable years and carelul training, characterized him. It is proper to add, however, that these attempted youthful frivolities, like an April show er, a woman’s tears, or an old woman’s dance, were socn over. When feeling his oats, which was very frequently the case, he would, without regard to tightened rein or bearing bit, strike out on his own hook. But he always kept the road. After receiving a lecture, in which his ad vanced age was generally alluded to as a reason why he should behave better, Stogy would jog along in the mos» orthodox manner—unless some horse in front of him tried to leave him behind An episode of this kind always roused him and pul him on his mettle. He never-, in the history of his many trips to Moultrie, failed to kee p his nose in reach of the vehicle in front of him, especially if the latter had any provender in it.

It was a fine concep tion of the sweet aud homelike duties that make up the manifest destiny of the fairer sex, and was well received by the audience. The charming little Misses Fleisher, Carroll, Cassels and 'Winn rendered “Little Orphant Annie” in a touching way, that went straight to the hearts of the audience. The second essay of the evening, The Tongue, Its Power and Influence, by Miss .Mamie Jcr|^r, was a gem. The essayist took occasion to say that it came with a good grace for a wom- to speak of the tongue, since pop ular prejudice had assigned to her a some time inordinate use of this mem ber. Miss Jerger gave some whole some advice ou the subject of talking. At the conclusion of the essay, : • Livic Pittman sang charming little song, “Going to Market,” in a way that did her great credit. A pleasant incident of this song was furnished by a tiny kitten that iound its way ou the stage, and while the sweet little singer walked hack arid forth aud sung, it kept her company. It gave like, realistic air to the song. evid mplov flier tike ex; duates Mure of Old Probs. After July 1st., Gen.

He was found guilty and fined $15.50, or 3 months on the gang. He is in jail, but will probably pay the fine. Dr. T. S. Hopkins left here on the 12:30 train yesterday to attend a meet ing of the “American Climatological Association,’’ at Boston. Mass., on the 24th, and a meeting ot the America*. Medical Association, at Newport, K.I., on the 26th. He will go from New port into the mountains of North Car olina, and will spend a part of the summer among the Cherokee Indians in that state—with Dave Owl, Oo- goo-koo, and his brother Jim Keg sa- tar-nec, chief and sub chiefs of the tribe. His object in going among the Indians is to investigate and discover, if possible, the mo>lu* ofteramU am rapeutic value of a plant or said to be indigenous to Swain the home of the Chcrokccs, and cd by them to be an infallible consumption. Any discoveries of terest made m this investigation will be promptly reported to the Times- Enterprise, and specimens of the plint will be sent to the pharmacy of K. Thomas, from which Professor C. S. Bondurant will prepare tinctures, fluids, extracts and syrups, in time to be tested and utilized during the com ing winter. It :s only by experiment that the value of any drug can be established. It would be strange, indeed, if the poor, persecuted red man should prove the discoverer ot a cure for a-disease which has baffled the combined skill of the medical world for twenty-five hundred years. Educational Report. Wc give much of our space this morning to the report of the commit tee on Education, made to the Board of Trustees of South 11 eorgia College at its meeting l ist. Tuesday. It. is an able paper, and as bearing on the needs of the college ami the cause ol education generally, it is worthvbf a careful perusal. It fore a policy on the part of the ’ Trustees of this institution Is bound to bring good results, nil is to be brought into more nopalhv and work with the Each is to feel that the equally interested in the pros- f the college, and as unity ol ways brings the best results, granted that 'andstriking. It took off the weak nesses that all incu and mo3t ladies have for seeing their names in print, in a capital way. At its conclusion a pun that embodied the names of all the editorial aud business force of the Timeh-Enterpries, was very happi ly gotten ofl. The essayist may rest assured that the Irtmo of her discontent will never rest heavily on her for lack of a Trij/ldt of compliments aud may she open the fountain of success as easily as a fully ripe Ilurr is opened when autumn sheds her mellow tints over the world. iiittlc Miss Annie Roberts recited “The Dead Doll” with a pathos that belongs to childhood. The lie*t essay, “Which shall it be,” by Miss Eloisc Thomas, was full of id sense and wise counsel. Whether shall be drones or workers in the world, jias the subject of the query, and it i3 safe ^o say that from the pro- fioucj' the reader showed during the evening, that sho will take her place long the workers of the world. Following tliiii came the song, “Visions of the Olden Time,” by Miss Annie Carroll. While its tender pa thos rose and fell there came to many of the audience pleasant visl the time when they faced commence ment audiences ou the eve of biddin adieu'to the happy, school days. After this song came the Valedic tory to Trustees, Teachers and Clas by Miss Alma Dekle, which was splendid tribute to the care of the Lloyd, CL S. Bondurant, S. A. Smith, W. H. Bibb, Cabin Carroll, D. C. Blanton and W. IL Rogers. It .was developed by several witness es that the deceased had been a great sufferer from neuralgia, and had been in the habit of taking morphine to re lieve the pain. About 10 o’clock Tuesday night she sent a negro girl after morphine and it is supposed took nearly five grain* of the deadly drug.^ Dr. Taylor- was called in and found her in a stupor. He administered antidotes. They seemed to have the desired effect and he left her at 2 o’clock resting quietly. He gave instructions to a woman that was present to rcmaiii with her. Betwccu 4 and 5 o’clock yesterday morning Mrs. Hutto, who lives near, oame in to sec the woman. She found her dead. After hearing the evidence, the Jury found the following verdict: Georu.ia, Thomas County.—“Wc, the Jurors, as aforesaid, find that Jessie I«ewis came to her death on the 19th of June, 1889, in the said state aud county, from an overdose of morphine, administered by her own frauds.” The dead woman had frequently expressed herself as tired of life, with in the past few weeks, and a note, without signature, hut identified ns tho writing of the deceased, and writ- tenJTuesday night, was found, which she sjKikc of her last night earth. It is therefore quite certaiu that she look the deadly drug to end an existence that had grown unbeara ble. In speaking of her intention to kill herself she expressed a desire that her baby should have her watch and Lain. The child is three or four years old and is with an aunt of the deceased, Miss Lou Campbell, of Quincy, Fla. Coroner Johnson took charge of the effects of the deceased and yester day evening she was laid to rest.
