And the large number of teachers will repair to their respective homes and take a short rest before entering upot the disoharge of their dntiea at their various schools. The work done at the session of the Normal School just closing has been a grand one, a work that bas succeeded far beyond the expectations of the fondest admirers or the new move ment. Started under financial difficulties that would have staggered most insti tutions, it has risen superior to the emergency, and has demonstrated for cibly to the people of Georgia the great and pressing necessity of placing upon a permanent foundation such a benefic ial institution as this. A Banker reporter interviewed President Evans upon the work of the school of the year, and the Interview speaks eloquently for the Normal School in all the departments. President Evans said: “During the term we have enrolled one hundred and twelve students, eighty-six of these being outside of Clarke county. They came from every section of the State and the attendance upon the school rep resented teachers from twenty-eight counties. The attendance has been very fine averaging at least seventy five. This I consider an excellent start for the institution. THE FACULTY. “The faculty consisted of Prof. Otis Ashmore, of Savannah, on Geography; p L. M. Landrum, of Atlanta, on Arithmetic; Prof. J.T. Derry, of Ma con, on History; Prof. G. G. Bond, of Athens, on Language; Prof. L. B. Evans, of Augusta, on Pedagogy. Be sides these there were special depart ments in Music by Mr. B. C.

London, Ang. 26.—A fearful mining accident occurred at the ParkBlip Coal Pit, near Bridgend, a mining town in Glamorganshire, Wales. The day shift of miners had not been long in the mine before a most terrible explosion was heard. The day shift comprised 150 men, and their relatives and friends rushed to the pit’s mouth to learn the extent of the disaster. The explosion had caused, the earth and rock to fall and the mouth of the pit was closed. Not a single man of the 150 in the mine had made his escape, and it ia. feared that there has been great loss of life. Hundreds of miners in the vicinity, have volunteered their services, and A Negro Woman, Old and Harmless, Is Shot Down In Her Door. - Isabella, Ga., Aug. 26.—Bula Jack- son, an old negro woman, waa shot and killed while standing in her cabin door at Sylvester, near this place.

Atlanta, Aug. 28.—A special to The Journal from Coal Creek says : There is no important change in the sitoation here. Attorney General Pick ett, after several interviews with Gen eral Carnes, has returned to Nashville. General Carnes now understands thor oughly how he shall proceed in the pros ecution of the miners, and those whom he believes to have been leaders in the recent outbreak, will be vigorously handled. Some highly sensational charges against Governor Bnchanan are being spoken of in the camp here since the de parture of Attorney General Pickett and Labor Commissioner Ford. It is charged that when the outbreak lin East Tennessee first becameknownin He Was Heartily Endorsed and Re nominated by Acclamation. LaGbangb., Ga., August 20—The congressional convention of the Fourth district resulted in the nomination of Hon. Charles L M ses. ■■ As soon as the organization was per fected, Hon. Joe M. Terrell, of Meri wether, got the fl lor and paid a beau tiful tribute to Hon. Warner Hill, withdrew his name from the contest for the nomination for corgregp, and moved tha^Hon. Charles l>. Moses, of Coweta, be nominated by acclamation. Hon. Morgan McMicnael, of Musco gee; Judge LoDgley, Mr Monroe, of Marion; Mr. Neal, of Harris, and Col. Grigsby Thomas, of Ctiumbus, sec onded the nomination. Col nel Thomas said he didn’t like Mr. Mn?rg keeping Nashville Governor Bnchanan was company with Weaver, b.uipson and wanted to take action in the matter, r that he was fonud in a barroom in a wretched state of intoxication and that two hoars of ice water application to his swollen head were necessary before he was able to understand the situation at all. It is also charged that Buchanan and Ford were both in Collusion with the miners and that Bnchanan, contemplat ing the race for governor as an indepeu dent, was catering to the miner vote of East Tennessee. These accusations are openly and. boldly made, und Attorney. General Pickett is among those quoted as being responsible for them. ' General Carnes Sifting the Plot. General Carnes is continuing the work of catechising-jthe miners, and is said to have aoqnired much definite in formation in regard to the leadership in the recent outbreaks. D. B. Monroe, the man who is now looked upon as the real leader of the at tack, is an Indianian by birth, and is a member of the Grand Army of the Re public. He came to Tennessee dnrin): the boom 4ays in 1888, and located a; Chattanooga, where he joined a local post of the Grand Army. - About a year ago he came to this sec tion and became a miner, because, as S o declared, his sympathies were with ae miners. Monroe was' a member of the committee of miners Which visited g y City, and while on the way to place with the committee he is said ive remarked to some old friends in itauooga that "something would soon."
