HUNTSVILLE.
Tbe Commeiicement Exsrclscs of the Sam
Houston Normal School.
HUNtsvillis, Tex., May 88.—Tho com-
moncoment oxcrclsoa continue with un-
abated Interest.
Yesterday evening win given up to tho
annual meeting of the alumni, which was
largely attendod and was a source of groat
■atlsfactlon to Its members.
At night the gymnastic class of Miss
Lnlu Sexton gave a very entertaining pro-
gramme. Tbe evolutions and graceful fig-
ures of the drill with the clubs and rintts,
and especially of the wands, were a revelation
to many who were constant attendants at
these annual exhibitions, showing that
1 Miss Sexton had not sparod herself In order
to make the event an unparalleled success.
The event of the evening was the entrance
Upon the stage of about twenty beautiful
girls in costumes personating in a Greek
pantonine all tbe emotions of the human
aoul. This was an Inspiration of Miss Lula
McCoy, art teacher. While the immense
crowd were assembling Miss Kittle Bufera
delighted and entertRlned them with a
Choice and varied selection of music. Dur-
ing the evening Mise Fannie Collins sang a
aweet solo.
Miss Lorena Allen recited Gencvra with
good effect.
Miss Jennie Nortlicroft gave in fine style
Mark Twain's New England Weather.
Mies Sexton favored the autlienco with a
difficult Instrumental solo.
j|Miss Emma Daniel gave a recitation,
original and entertaining.
In a stroll through the school one Is im-
pressed vrith tho earnestness and steadiness
of the students. One who during their early
echool days was accustomed to tbe uproar
and noise which usually was to be found
during school hours and nt playtime misses
this here, and you feel like you would like
to gently shake up some of tho staid girls
and put a little more of the lifo of the tra-
ditional school room into them.
In a visit to Miss L. W. Elliott's room,
over which she has presided for ten years or
more, you find exerythingas it should be in
school when the students all respect and
love their teacher. In her department are
taught history, rhetoric and literature.
From Miss Elliott I luarn that the first half
ot the yea? In tbe middle class has been de-
Toted to rbetorio and kindred studies; the
latter half to history and the discussion of
methods. In the graduating class, with the
exception of a short space allotted to Eng-
lish history, the year has been given to the
study of Shakespeare, other authors and
Greek literature. As an illustration, the
subject this morning whs on tbe principal
places of interest in ancient Home. On one
board was the map of tho city, on another
the ground plan of the Roman forum, and
on another a drawing of the forum itself.
Each student has a topic assigned for in-
vestigation, and in tbe class gave the result
of cuch study.
Governor Wheeler and Superintendent
Cooper were met at tho depot and driven to
Major Goree's, where they will he hospita-
bly entertulned during their star. Uoth
gentlemen were out on the street this morn-
ing shuking hands with old friends.
Governor Wheeler is making many
friends who met him yesterday for the first
time. He is not talking politics. He says
lie is hero as a friend of education and
wants to see how the young idea has been
cultured under Dr. Baldwin's able manage-
ment.
A crazy convict committed suicide yester-
day. His namo is Varnell. He was sent
from Washington county and had served
his sentence of four or five years. A coro-
ner's inquest waB held on the body in the
evening. No blame attached to anybody.

THE PRIMARIES.
Delegates Eleotsd Last Night for Satur.
day's Convention.
It was comparatively a small vote th&t
turned out yesterday evening at the prim-
aries to Bend delegates to the dcmocratio
county convention called to meet In this
city on Saturday evening to eloct delegates
to tht) state and other convoutions, congres-
sional, senatorial, representative, etc., in
Which Galveston county is interested.
There was little or no contest at any of
tho polls, tickets previously proparod being
very generally voted without any opposi-
tion and receiving tbe unanimous vote oust.
In nearly every instance, except in the
Tenth ward, only the number of delegates
to which the ward was entitled was voted
for, the exception lu tho Tenth being that a
number of names wero placed upon the
ticket, the three receiving the highest num-
ber of votes being declared the delegates
elected.
The dologates for the most part represent
the same set whose names are familiar as
being those who for several years past have
controlled the political machinery of tbe
county, they holng those who apparently
take tbo most Interest in the democratic
organization as it at present exists.
The rapidity with which the present
movement has been foisted upon the peoplo
is creating some comment in political cir
cles among those who don't happen to bo
on tbe inside, and this class is kept buBy lu
guessing what it all means. Upon one
point at least the guessers are a unit, aud
that it means a Hogg delegation from Gal-
veston county to the state convention.
Following were the delegates elected last
nlaht in the various wards:
First Ward—Twenty-nine votes polled,
each of the following delegates receiving
that number: W. M. Andrews, A. H. Boy-
sen, A. E. Cameron, G. W. Sweeney.
Second Word—Sixty-ono votes polled.

Tiernan, Jim Hopkins and John Burke.
Fourth Ward—M. M. Jorrlun, Chas. Jes-
mip, Henry Huble, Chas. Jordan and Chas.
Wertz.
Eighth Ward —Sixty-seven votes polled.
Delegates elocted: A. J. Webber and R. T.
Wheeler.
Ninth Ward—Sixty-four votes polled.
Delegates elected: I). W. Ducie, Tom Mc-
Honry and Loulr Schmidt.

Seventh Ward—Jas. Daly, Alex. Duffurd,

shocks were felt hero yesterday. Fifteen

Gloomy Prospects-
Montgomery, Tex., May 28.—Having
ridden over'a portion of the county yester-
day I am to-day prepared to say that a more
gloomy prospect for a crop of both cotton
and corn never confronted our farmers, the
cause being that of incessant rains for tbe
past eight weeks. Farmers hare not been
able to put in eight consecutive doys' work
in tbe farm for about eight weeks, hence
both cotton and corn have been and are still
water soakod, overrun with weeds and grass
and turned yellow. Nothing but a contin-
uation of dry weather for two or three
weeks will insure more than a half crop.
Platt'e Chlorides Frequently Used

And wholrisompnefs. More economical than tbe ordi-
nary kiDds, aud cannot be eold in competition with tbe

Dizziness, Nausea. Drowsiness, Distress after
eating Pain in the Side, &c. While their most
remarkable succcss has been shown in curing
SICK
Headache, yet Carter's Little Liver Pir.ui
are equally valuable in Constipation, curing
and preventing t his annoying complaint, while
they also correct all disorders of tne stomach,
stimulate tho liver and regulate the bowels.
Even if they only cured
HEAD
Ache they would be almost priceless to those
who suffer from this distressing complaint;
but fortunately their goodness does not end
here, and those who once try them will find
those little pills valuable In so many ways that
they will not be willing, to do without them.
But after all sick head
ACHE
is the bane of so many lives that here Is where
we make our great boast. Our pills cure it
while others do not.
Carter's Lfrn.n Liver Pills are voir small
