lOOCOA CITY GAy: : : : : JUNE 10, 1887.
The Atlanta Constitution says
PresidentCleveland went fishing late¬
ly and forgot to spit on his bait; such
ignorance or carelessness on the part
of Grover is utterly inexcusable. A
fellow who would go fishing and for¬
get to spit on his bait is not fit to be
President. Grover wants to make
00,(MX),000 of people think lie never
slipped away from old man Cleveland
and went fishing with a pin hook.
Bet he spit and spit on his bait when
he tramped' along the creek bank
with one suspender on his shoulder
and the other hanging at his side.
Grover mustn’t put on airs; he must
not go back on his raising.
PEABODY INSTITUTE FOR 1887.
FINAL ANNOUNCEMENT.
Department of Education,
Atlanta, Ga., June 7th, 1887.
Another Institute, sustained by an
appropriation from the Peabody Fund,
will be lield in- the city of AtJant the
present year.- It will begin on Mon¬
day, the 18th day of July, and will
continue in session four weeks-
The following will be the
CORPS OF INSTRUCTORS l
Geography, Rev. Charles Lane, of
the Alexander Free School, Macon ;
Arithmetic, W M Slaton, of the Boy’s
High School, Atlanta; English Gram¬
mar, Lawton B. Evans, Superintend¬
ent of the Schools of Augusta and
Richmond county; Algebra and Ge¬
ometry, W R Thigpen, Boys’High
School, Savannah; Theory and Prac¬
tice of Teaching , including methods,
school management r etc., Dr John
Hancock, of Chdicothe, Ohio; the
Natural Sciences, Dr L B Clifton, of
Macon, Ga; How to Teach Reading,
Dr H H Tucker, ex-Chancellor of the
University of Georgia; Drawing,
Horaca Bradley, Artist, New York
City.
This corps presents a fine array of
teaching talent. The first four nam¬
ed are among the most prominent of
the younger educators of the State
Dr Hancock was long Superintend¬
ent of the school® of Cincinnati, and
enjoys a national reputation. Dr
Clifton, a Louisianian by birth, is a
graduate of Oxford University, Eng¬
land, and ranks high as a lecturer on
the Natural Sciences. Mr. Bradley
has few if any superiors of his age in
his chosen profession. Of Dr Tucker
it is unnecessary to speak. Every
Georgian knows him.
Dr Haucock will be present the
first three weeks; Dr Clifton the last
two, while the times of Mr, Bradley
and Dr Tucker, each of whom is to
give a limited number of lessons, will
be duly announced in the daily pa¬
pers.
Dr A. Vf Calhoun, the eminent
occulist, will deliver two or more lec«
tares on the Eye r and how to preserve
it.
Other widely known scientific gen¬
tlemen have been invited to discuss
suitable themes, and it rs hoped that
their acceptances will be received.
The undersigned will be in charge
of the whole work, and w ill lecture,
as may suit his convenience, on
School Law, Constitutional and Sat-
utory. ,
‘Eis Excellency Gov. Gordon has
consented to deliver the address of
welcome.
As usual, there will be two schools,
one for white, and one for colored
teachers. The schools will be taught
in different buildings, but bj the
same instructors.
I invite the County school Com¬
missioners to be Present Tuesday,
the 26th of July. The highest school
authority has deciled that the Coun¬
ty Boards of Education may allow
the Commissioners their per diem for
the few days of ther attendance. I
bope that every Commissioner in the
State will come. Let ro one fail to
be present. Instruction delivered or¬
ally is much more effective than when
«ommunicated through printed or
written matter. Moreover, the State
School Commissioner can in no other
way be so thoroughly informed of the
wants of the work with which he is
charged as by oral communication
with the County Bommis°ioner. If
they have not done so, let each Com¬
missioner bring this matter before his
Board for action.
The arrangement for reduced- trans¬
portation is the same as that made
last year. Gustavus J. Oait,
State School Commissioner
and Saperintendent of Institute.
A*Leading Merchant's Testimony.
Mr. D. J. Ilyneman is the leading
grocer of Corinth, Miss. He stands
as high socially and financially as he
does as-a man of strictest integrity.
He tells how his little daughter was
cured of eczema. Any one who
wishes to hear more of the case, can
do so by addressing the gentleman a
polite request for the details of the
case. Here is a letter from Mr.
Hyncman on the subject:
My little daughter had eczma
sometime ago. On recommendation
of a physician, I gave her S. S. S.
At once the effect the medicine made
her break out worse than she was at
first, thus driving out the disease
through the skin. She is now about
well, only a spot here and there occa¬
sionally showing.
I regard S. S. S. as very effective
in eczema, and recommend it unhes¬
itatingly to iny neighbors as a splend¬
id blood purifier. Yours truly.

WASHINGTON LETTER.
Washington, D. C., June 6, ’87.
Editor News: The National Drill
has closed, and was carried on
such a grand scale that the Managers
have to make up a purse of $10,000
to meet the deficit. Unfortunately
we had rain every afternoon of the
drill after the first day until the close
of the week so that thousands of per¬
sons were kept away. The rain also
so interfered for three nights with the
pyrotechnic arrangements that thou¬
sands of dollars were lost. As a
military display the drill was a grand
success and every visiting company
left for home delighted with its treat¬
ment and determined to come again
if the drill be repeated.
Several of the companies was so
charmed with the beauties of the City
that they remained until nearly the
end of the week after the drill closed
on Monday. The Minnesota com¬
pany that won the second infantry
prize were the guests of the National
Rifles of this place after the close of
the drill and on Thursday were taken
to Mt. Vernon and treated to a Poto¬
mac plank shad bake, which is an epi¬
curean feast, purely local to this sec¬
tion of the country. The delicious
Potomac shad were taken directly
from the river, split in two, and pin¬
ned to a immence oak or chestnut
plank which had been heated through
from face to face by a wooden fire
built in front of it. The heat of the
blazing fire on one side and the hot
plank on the other side, to which the
shad is pinned, soon broils the shad
through and through, and imparts to
it a delicious flavor not to be attained
in any other way, and so far beyond
all comparison, that you must partake
of the feast to form any conception
of the delicate flavor. Champagne
is the usual beverage that goes with
plank shad, and it always flows freely
on such occasions.
The American Fisheries Society,
the American Climatological Society,
the American Physicians Society, and
the Mechanical Engineers Society,
have all held conventions in our city
this week. They found the city so
attractive just now in its spring dress
that the sessions have mostly been
held at night so as to give the mem¬
bers an opportunity to see the beau¬
ties of art and nature by day light.
The President of the Mechanical
Engineers Society, Geo. H. Babcock,
of New York, said in his opening ad¬
dress that the American people were
hardly aware of the beautiful Me¬
tropolis which the capital city had
become, and said that the magnifi-
cence of the buildings and cleanly
and beautiful stretch of avenues and
streets were only equaled by the warm
hospitality of the people.
The Fisheries Commission haB been
somewhat saddened by the sudden
illness of Prof Baird, of the Smith¬
sonian Institute,- the father of fish
culture in this country. The fact
that so many prominent public men
have died after brief illness within
the past month has caused much-alarm
concerning the Professor’s illness, but
his physicians pronounce him now
out of danger. The affection is of
kidneys.
During the Presidents absence in
the woods of New York State, the
Executive Mansion is being over¬
hauled, and when he gets back it will
have been transformed from its gor¬
geous winter dress into its light and
cool costume of summer. It is not
expected that the President will leave
the City again until fall, and he and
Mrs. Cleveland will take up their
abode at Oak View for the summer.
Now that the enforcement of the
Sunday Law is being tested in the
courts, the people through the news-
papers are making loud calls for open
air concerts and free access to the
Government buildings are doing all
they can to defeat the new
ture as Sunday is the only day in
seven that they have to themselves
and they have protested against be¬
ing made to work on Sunday.
There is no appropriation out of
which an extra force to do duty on
Sunday can be paid, and so there
seems to be no probability that the
buildings will be opened on that holy
day. H.
