Fight Will Be Bitter.
Those who will persist in closing their

tion of Dr. King’s New Discovery for
Consumption, will have a long and bit

what Mr. T. R. Beall, of Beall, Mass.,
has to say: “Last fall my wife had ev¬
ery symptom of consumption. She took
Dr. King’s New Discovery after eve-y

cured her. Guaranteed by all druggists

COMMENCEMENT IS OVER.
The Pupils Acquitted Themselves
With Honor.
The commencement exorcises,
which marked the closing cf the
Spring term of the Camilla High
School, were held in the Audito¬
rium on last Monday and Tues¬
day evenings, and. notwithstand
ing the fact that a small admission
fee of 10 cents was charged to
meet the current expenses, the
Auditorium was filled to its utmost
capacity and on Monday evening
standing room was at a premium.
Each pupil did well and reflect¬
ed credit, not only upon them¬
selves, but the teachers who had
their training in hand.
The program for Monday even¬
ing was as follows:
Piano Duo—“Husarenritt”—
Spindier, by Misses Clara Free¬
man and Lucile Culpepper.
Piano Solo (in unison) “Merry
■go-round”—Misses Nina Hil¬
liard and Mary Julia Clark,
Chorus—“Brownies’ Lullaby,”
by twenty little girls.
Piano Quartette --“Awakening
of the Birds”—Lauge,—Rosa
Cox, Margaret Smith, Camilla
Spence and Daisy Rachals.
Piano Solo—“New York Bells”
—Salter,—Miss Lucile Culpep¬
per.
Chorus— “Sneezing Song,” by
twenty little girls.
Piano Duet—“Polka” Streab
hog,— Leila and Roy Walker
Piano Quartette—“Flight of
the Swallow”—Lauge,—Misses
Annie J. Cochran, Mary Spence,
Nina Hilliard and Max-y Julia
Clark.
Recitation—‘ ‘Gobblins”—Miss
Marie Turner.
Piano Solo—“Waltz”—Streab*
bog—Miss EdnaWadkins.
Piano Duet—“Wind and Tide”
—Hewitt,—Misses Annie Grace
and Henrietta Brim berry.
Piano Quartette—“Parade Re¬
view ” — Eugel mann, — Misses
Ruth and Lallio Wilson, Geminie
Lou Cox and Mrs. Twitty.
This part of the evening’s en¬
tertainment was under the direct
supervision of Mrs. Clara Twitty,
the efficient and pains taking
music teacher, and despite the
fact that many of these little
girls were first year pupils, they
showed earnestness of purpose
and good training.
The evening’s entertainment
was closed by the rendering ol
Longfellow ’ s ‘ ‘Hiawatha, ’
drama in five acts. In this play
a majority of the school partic¬
ipated and their work was indeed
good and showed the splendid
training of the efficient corpse of
teachers who had them in hand
The latter part of the play was
marred by a shower of rain that
came up and disturbed the audi
dence, many of whom made a
rush to get home as quickly as
possible, but this did not throw
the actors off and they continued
in good order till the play was
finished.
Quite a number of beautiful
tableaus were shown by the use
of calsene lights thrown upon the
groups of children, attired in
quaint Indian fashion.
Graduating Exercises.
The graduating exercises of
the class of 1904 of the Camilla
High School Tuesday night con¬
sisted of six parts, one part be¬
ing taken by each member, and
were as follows:
Salutatory—Mr. Philip E. Bai¬
ley.
Class History—Miss Ruth Wil¬
son.
Class Trophecy—Miss Clara
Freeman.
Essay—Genius—M i s s Mittie
Lee Palmer.
Class Poem—Mr. Clarence
Brimberry.
Valedictory—Mr. Frank Harts
field.
The mere mention of these
names of the graduates is suffic¬
ient assurance to those who were
absent that the respective parts
were excellently executed and
well received.
Various members of the school
of music, under Mrs. Clara Twit¬
ty, interspersed delightful’ ren¬
ditions of instrumental and vocal
music during the evening.
The address of Hon. Walter A.
Park, who is so well remember¬
ed as our popular teacher of nine
years ago, was nothing less than
those who are acquainted with
him might have known to expect.
With eloquence and reason he
showed the young men and ladies
just entering upon life, the true
success of life is in the faithful
discharge of duty. The people of
Camilla enjoyed the visit from
“Professor” Park, and he was
shown much social attention.
Prof. Branham with a few well
chosen and sincere words
delivered the diplomas. He
stated that the work done by the
graduates was sufficient to entitle
the voung men to enter the
Freshman Class at any of our
colleges, the yc-ung ladies the
Sophom 're Class.
The entire corps of teachers
could have receixed no higher
mark of praise for their faithful¬
ness and eminentsuccess in their
work than the announcement by
the chairman of the Board of
Trustees, Mr. Jno. C. Turner, of
their unanimous re-election.
There was a universal expres¬
sion of pleasure on the part of
the people. Many congratula¬
tions have been extended, and it
is earnestly hoped that Profes¬
sors Branham and Wiggins will
again conduct our school, assis¬
ted by the same able lady-teach
ere.

Closing Exercises of Camilla’s
Negro School.
On las: Friday night in Ben¬
nett’s Hall were held the closing
exercises of the splendid colored
school which is being so well
conducted in Camilla by J. I.
Williams, who has risen from one
of Mitchell county’s cotton chop¬
pers and fodder pullers to quite a
distinguished educator among
the people of his race in this
county,
Williams has worked up a nice
school for his people here; this
could readily be seen by the
work of the boys and girls who
took part in the exercises. In
this work he has won the respect
not only of his own people but
that of the white citizens as well.
By special invitation from
Williams and other prominent
colored citizens, Mr. R. L. Wig¬
gins, assistant principal of the
Camilla High School, made a
splendid talk to the school and in
it gave them some advice which
if heeded will do them no lifLio
good. After ihe talk by Prof.
Wiggins the recitations, dialogues
andmusical selections which made
up the program for the evening
were carried out and thoroughly
enjoyed by those present.
A large number of our white
c'tizens went out and occupied
seats in the front of the hall
which were specially reserved
for them.
