Our citizens fee 1 a just pride this excellent institution. The success which attended the efforts ot the trustees and faculty during the first term is a sufficient guarantee to the people of this section of its future high standard as an educational in stitution.

The Earnest Workers organisation of little girls of the Presbyterian Sunday School, under the leadership of their president, Miss May Griffiths gave a charming ice cream festival Friday night of last weak. The ta bles were spread under the brilliant light* in front of the church and the little misses vied with eauh other m making the*occasion one of pleasure to their many patrons. The 4th Reg iment band complimented the little Workers with sweet music, -adding much to the pleasure of the occasion. A neat sum was realised tor the pur poses of the organisation. The session of the Presbyterian church has secured the acceptance ot Rev. Paul F. Brown, of Knoxville, Tenn., to fill the pulpit. The church is indeed fortunate in securing such an able and earnest divine to take its pastorate, aud all the people of our city will share with the member ship in thwr good fortune. Mr. Brown will be here to take charge of the church by the fourth Sunday in this month. | ant,” in care General Delivery. Clever Jessie Dickerson was over from Iron City the first of - the week.
