self a grand all-around educational ath
elete, towering above all his predecess
ors In intellect, eloquence and popular
ity and (here have been some mighty
men connected with Its history, He
has spoken (o scholars and professors
in all departments, Including always
the larger ear of tho publlo, and Salem
can feel proud to have such a man In
her midst.
It would have done the whole popu
lation of this stalo good to have heard
the loyal and patriotic sentiments of B.
F. Gue, of Portland. He hung the
hide of certain species of pulpit dema
gog up to dry lu the breezes of his big-
hearted broad-based eloquence in a
manner that all present enjoyed who
were free to do so. He won great
rounds of applauset
Tho Exercises of the 40th Commence

zart, by Misses Nowsomo, Jory, Cleaver
and Alderson, After an Impressive
prayer by Rev. Kellermun, "The Hills
of Song," composed by Miss Nellie
Carpenter, of tho graduating class, was
sung by Misses Carpenter and Sargeant,
Messrs. Parvln uud Cofley. It was
beautiful musioand its rendition was
a credit to the lady's musical taste and
conception.
The prize Greek oration was delivered
by Miss Cora Winters; It was a difficult
task of memory, but she spoke with
good expression and effect. The ora
tion was a discussion on "Cyrus, King
of the Persians-"
Miss Nellie Carpenter, a post gradu
ate In music, delivered an essay on the
"Legends of Music." It was a recital
of the beautiful legends and myths of
tho art that has unrivaled power over
mankind; the essay was a very enter
taining one and full of the spirit of Its
subject.
Mr. Homer A. Kruno, a post gradu
ate in music, executed "Fautosie" Gp.
17, of Sohumaun, with a skill and ex
pression that only a composer of muslo
can understand and use.

terlzed by originality of thought, care
ful study of tho different parts of tbe
discussion, hard hlta aud great earnest
ness. The people heard him gladly.
John Bay no L. L. B., made his ora
tion on "Conditional Sale of Pereonal
Property." Tho discussion was jfhor
ough and plain; ho argued the differ
ent noluts of the purchaser aud bailee
In a way suggestive that in the actual
practice of law, a clear mind aud per
ception will stand him in good stead.
Miss Lulu G. Sargeant sang the aria
"Carnival of Venice" (variations de
coucor.) of Benedict. It Is a pleasure
to hear her slug and the solo, though a
difficult classic opera, won popular ap
proval.
Mr. Cbas. JR. Roblin, LL. B., orated
on tho "Proof of Handwriting. " Tbe
speaker first recounted the proofs of chl
rogrupby, then passed to tbe general
discussion, It was n plain exposition
of tho subject and the acuteuesa
of the argument was proof of legal abll
Ity. Mr. N. M. Newport, A. M., LL.
B ohoso "Tho Making of a Nation"
as his subject. The Justness aud power
of the argument, careful preparation
ruid forcible expression made the ora
tion very exrellent.
Miss Nelllo Carpenter played the
piano solo, "Lucia de Lammermoor,"
(transcription) of Liszt, with her
wonted brilliancy. Rev. Geo. W. Gue,
of Portlaud, was introduced and de
livered tbe commencement oration.
Ills subject was "Symmetrical Educa
tion." He spoke with great power aud
ability. The speaker was frequently

The New Teachers. The selection
of a corps of teachers by tbe Board of
Education meets with general satisfac
tion. Six hours were spent yesterday
in balloting for a principal for North
Salem. Tbe board tried to meet the
demands of the people of North Salem
for Miss Capwell, but finally chose
Prof. E. K. Barnard, of Tillamook.
He has twelve years experience in
Wisconsin, came to the coast a few
years ago, and has been county super
intendent of that county. He has very
high recommendations, and his wife is
also a teacher with a good record. The
four new teachers, Miss Moore, Mrs.
Alice T. Miner, H. B. Ellworthy, and
Prof. Barnard are all from abroad.
The board has set a good example, in
setting aside the clamors of their friends
and neighbors for personal recognition,
and places for their friends, and select
ing the best professionally equipped
educators, regardless of where tbey
ball from. Tbe board was compelled
by limited finances to reduce the sobool
year from ten to nine months, which
will save $2300. Many of tbe teachers,
and pupils will be away at tbe World's
Fair. Mrs. Grubbe will spend the
summer at Newport. Miss Capwell
has beeu offered tbe Government
School at Cape Foulweather for the
summer.
