'fc nlSf tv TrsfrC-' fVT-'' 'f 5j IT' fc 1 rr it DAILY EVENING BULLETIN. DAILY, EXCEPT SUNDAY. rosser McCarthy, Proprietors. TUESDAY EVE MARCH 12, 18S9. It will be known pretty well within a few months whether President Harrieon ia a real civil service refoimer.

Perhaps all this talk on that euhject is "just for fan." Mr. W. W. Patterson, of Ashland, has retired from the contest for Superintendent of the Louisvillo canal, and will tryforOhief of Posioffice Inspectors in the Louisvillo and St. Louis district.

i i England doesn't intend that any Nation Bhall out-do hor on tho seas. Parliament has annronriated moro than $100,000,000 to slrengthen what is already the most powerful navy tho world has known, Postmaster General WanamakkrIirs plenty of work on his hands. There are thirteen thousands vacant post offices throughout tho country to ho filled. This largo number of vacancies is duo partly to the failure of the last Senate to act on Cleveland's appointments. Ir the half is true that is told of Vice President Morton he must be the boss boodler of the age.

A prominent Republican politician of Now York is reported as saying that Morton has con tributed very nearly $2,000,000 since 1872 to the corruption funds of his party in State and National elections. As the the work of turning out Democrats and putting in Republicans is to eommence at tho heads of the departments and como down, it will be sometime before tho storekeepers and guagers will have to walk tho plank. Applicants for the places referred to will, perhaps, have to exercise a cood deal of patience. President Harrison has grown tired of shaking hands with the people already. He managed to keep it up till after the inauguration, but now during receptions when "common folks step up to get a grip of his paw he complacently folds his hands behind him and remarks.

"No, thank you; I'll take your word for it." Well, he has had enough of tho business and evidently deserves a rest. Referring, probably, to tho Southern California craze the Cincinnati Enquirer remarks that "cranks co in search of gold. Sensible people stay at home and mako much more money in the ordinary walks of life, even at tho poorest grades of day labor." M-iny of those ho have left Majsville of late yeais to their fortune elsewhere hi vc learned to their Eorrow the truth of tho old udaiio that a rolling stone gathers no moss." The Louisville Times says Many of our pessimistic exchanges are altogether 1 too previous in proclaiming that tho ruling of Judge Montfort of the Franklin Circuit Court, dismissing the suit of the Commonwealth against the sureties on one of tho bonds of ex-State Treasurer is the last act in what one of the able editors is pleased to denominate 'a wretched The case has gone to the Court of Appeals, where it will, doubtless, bo advanced on the docket, and Attorney General Hardtn is confident of a reversal of the decision of the lower court. Suppose tho newspapers give tho law a chance in this matter." The tobacco growers of Mason Coanty seom very much in earnest in tho movo to lessen tho coming crop and thus se-ure better price foi that now on hand. Tho hams throughout tho county are filled with tho weed, and the farmers have it in their power to fix the price of the crop now on hand to a very great extent tliis by deciding on a reduced acreage the coming season.

If tho manufacturers and the dealers are made to realise there is not to bo so much produced this year as last thero will bo a better demand for that now on hand, the market will bo firmer and prices will be higher. The reverse will be tho case, however, if everybody pitches In to raise anothor such crop as that of 1883. Quality and not quanty Bhould he the aim of ovory grower with a grain of common sense. The Democratic Legislature of Indiana has parsed a bill to prevent bribery and corruption at tho pollc. It ispronounced a very stringent measure, and the Indianapolis Sentinel predicts that thero will be very vote-buying in future elections.

This act of tho Democratic Legislature of Indiana is in quito Btriking contrast with that of the Republican Legislature of Maine. In the. Maine body of lawmakers the Senate solidly Republican-decided that tho "Australian Ballot bill" "ought not to pass." This bill would have put a stop to voto-buying iu Maine. From the abova it doesn't look much like the Republicans were in favor of "a free ballot and a fair olection." Thoy rely on the mighty influence of boodlojin political contests now-a-days, and it seems: are not going to pass any laws that tend to put a stop tho nefarious busi-nos. A BRILLIANT FUTURE.

Miss Margarot Kackloy's Splendid Progress in Vocal Music Hor Prospects. (InilntinDolls Nbts. Miss AlarRiuet Kackloy, who lias been Invited to come from Paris to take ouo of the solo parts la tlio coming May Festival, Is youug student whom Indianapolis might well delight to honor. When a child sho developed unuhual talent for music aud her rolco showed wonderful power and sweetness of qunllty. This talent developed, and It was decided by her family (o send her East for a course of training whereshe might hnvo udvantHge of tho best bchoollng.

She studied for two and one-half years in Boston under Charles It. Adams and Augusto Rotoll, eminent tsnehers, and dining that time held three ndvautngeous choir positions. Her Improvement was so marked that she was urged to pursuo her studies lu Paris un der tho renowned Madame Lenoard, ono of theemlnont Garclas. Hlio has been in Paris for eighteen months and has worked zealously. During the holidays this year she was tho guest of Mrs Maurice- MncMIUnn, la Kensington Gardens London, mid during her stay she Rang before Sir George Grove, Musical Director of tho Royil Col lego of Music In London and Dr.

Hubert Parry, tho eminent composer. Thoy both expressed themselves delighted with tho qusllty of her voice, hor school and her style and urged her to pursue her studies to tho end. Miss Kackloy's futuro Is assured already, but she will return to Paris for an Indefinite period after responding to the invitation extended to sing lu Indianapolis lu May, and her Jrlonds anticipate a brilliant career for her. When she loft Boston for Paris she was preparing to appear In grand opera iu Der but decided to study further. Miss Kackley Is scarcely more thnn a girl, and has every prospector a brilliant future.

THE PUBLJO SCHOOLS. Notes and Comments by Superintend' ent Galbraith for 1888-89. NO. 50 CltHSTErt. Tho school house is comfortable and well furnished in all of its appointments, Tho trustees, W.

H. Ryder, Geo. Hard- ingand A. Stinier, are attentive on all of the wants of the school, and the patrons are exhibiting universal interest. The public school note continues through a period of seven months, and is (might by H.

II. Collins and Miss Sue Grant. In Mr. Collins' room there are sixty-eight pupils on roll with an average attendance of fcrty-six. Rufus Simons, Mattio Rudy aud Virgie Mason have lost no time.

Mr, Collins uso written work in most of his classes, nnd has succeeded well with this as with all of tho rest of his wotk. lie is a careful and systematic teacher. He reports: "I have made use of all the improvements available to me. I attend the Teachers Institute and the Teachers' Association, and make constant use of the Teachers' Libraty, and also take two educational journals, und by these I am able to improve my own work. I feel that I can tee a vast improvement both mentallv and morally in tho progtess of the school.

My pupils aro interested and endeavoring to fit themselves for lives of usefulness This report sneaks for itself. It shows the earnest, patient, conscientious work on the part of the teacher, and its splendid result in the improved condition of his school. The means are at band for every teacher, as this report shows, aud put tho question tquarelv to each one: Have you made use of all these in tho discharge of your duties as educators? If not, is thero any excuse? Can you exenee indifference, want of interest in your own work, or want of energy 7 Ia there any excuse for a teacher in Mason County, who does not keeppico with educational methods Make for yourself the answer to thene questions, and should you be found wanting, mako better use of the means at hand in the future, and the roault will tell on our public school with wonderful effort. Mies Grant has enrolled eighty-two. with an average attendance of fifty-five.

Belle Yttzel, Elsie Myrtle Tolle and John Bright have lost no time. Miss Grant is a very successful teacher. She is well equipped for her work and is careful and systematic. Her room is orderly and busy, and one feels while visiting it that Miss Grant is just the right perpon for its important duties Slie writes I use written work in all of my classes to a areat extent. It aids tne very much in gaining and holding the child's attention.

As the majority of my pupils are bpginners, my chief aim is to vary my mothods so as to create more interest, and not have the work become monotonous. In this I find that I have so far succeeded This gives us an insight into tho work of ono of the best primary schools in tho county. Miss Grant has taught this room for a numbor of for be it said to the judgment of the trustees, that whitever chanties they havo made in their principal teacher thov always have been unanimous in their selcctionof Miss Grant. And by her careful aud well-directed work she his clone much in bringing the public school of Chester up to the front rank of tho schools of the county. Kentuckians.

Ah for "Phil" Thompson, and "Will" Breckinridge, and "Dick1' Winter-smith, you hnvo only to liston where tho roara of laughter come from to spot them at once.
