Two Eutaxian are credite.l with th cans nf thi visit; which one rightfully, time will prove. Last Wednesday evening s farewell party wa given at the residence of Mr Holt for George and Eva Shinn, ae they intend leaving oon with their pareut for Texas. It was universally pronounced on of th most pleas ant alfairs of th season. If the neighbors of a certain bachelor tb ment in th western part of town are awakened at early dawn by the owner of laid establish ment taking up and heating carpets, washing windows, etc. they need n it be alarmed. The bachelors are only doing their annual house cleaning.

The mourning apparel worn by om young loilies of a certain class examined last week, was the object of much speculation. It was finally ascertained that it wa not on account of any loss the number had sustained, but because white aprons and cutTs are said to be a standing temptation to pupils 011 account of the remarkable facilities they offer for carry ing notes. "How miserable I the lot of s bachelor! Who does not pity them, and how thankful they would be if some one would take pity on their ignorance in th oooking Una and supply them with bread." Huoli were the musing of a certain young lady concerning the situation of a tall Laurean bachelor. Acting iiion tl is impulse, she immediately procured a Joafof bread anl carried it to the Ull Laurean, whose irratitu le for the gift wa bmindlea and whose thanks he now offer to th liberal donor through thi column. At the "gauntlet exercise," of which we mail mention in our last issue, th first prize wa awarded by th judge to Geo W HilL For the second prize, Darwin Bristow, Nellls Brown and Fannie McDaniel were the con testants. The audience were deprived of the pleamire of hearing Mr Keekmaii'a recitation ou account ot his being accidentally struck with a wand by one of the other member of the class, while said number was endeavoring to confuse one of the speakers, Among the visitors present we noticed the faces of Ed Orton and Ehntr Wheeler,bothforuer students ol th University. During the last few weeks many nf the students at the University have atopped school f ir the purpose nf teauliirg. May Bouuett began her school last Monday near Creaswell; May Babb . will soon commeiie teaching in Bentou County; llattie Dicken son ail! wield the rod in Mohawk; Lulu Sksggs i engaged to teach s acbool near Cotta e Grove; .leimie Taylor and btr sister Na inie. s former student, are both go ng to teach in ltauton county; Anna and Luima PI tie, May Kuthei ford. Kittle Silerand Mar tha Haudaaker willalso commence toach'ngin t lis or iieighlxiiiog counties; Charles Pen. mi will begin a school near hi home. If the teacher conduct their schools with the same earnstiie msnilested in their classes at the University, On gon may well be proud nf the University . which prepare so many teacher for her public school. A few day ago ome half dozen Laurean, of whom our ooutempoary editor wa one, were out enjoying s'roll near the Univers ity In the course, of their walk they saw trolling near the graveyard, s like number of young Eutaxisui enjoying s walk also. To the philosophic minds nf these Laurean, it waa not pioaaaut to see their sister (Cub's ima tint unprotected, and after mat ore d iibersti.Mi they decided that they accident ally (?) of course would joiut them and enitiiine bir walk together.
