The following is an extract from a letter Smith received from Morgan: "Send me ten collars, five pairs of cuffs, one shirt, one pair of socks, three decks of cards and three neckties. I guess as we will only be here four weeks, that will be enough.

Prof. R. C. Meade, superintendem of the Atchison public schools, was last week presented by the teachers of the public schools of that city with a certificate of life membership in the National Teachers' Association. This is certainly a fitting recognition of the excellent services which the professor has rendered the schools of that city during the past seven years. We are also glad to see Atchison coming to the front in educational matters, and making this splendid manifestation of its terest in the Teachers' Association. But four certificates have yet been issued in the state.
The editor sat in his sanctum,
Letting his lessons rip ;
Racking his brains for an item,
And stealing all he could clip.
The editor sat in his class room,
As it getting over a drunk.
His phiz was clouded with awful gloom,
For he made a total flunk.
The editor returned to his sanctum.
He hit himself in the eye.
He swore he'd enough of the business,
He would quit the paper or die.
NOTES.
The students and all others who enjoy hearing a good comedian, should not fail to attend Shane-na-Lawn, by the celebrated actor, W. J. Scanlan, next Thursday night, the 15th. Mr. Scanlan is among the best comedians on the road, and appears at particularly good advantage in the romantic Irish drama, Shane-na-Lawn, where his rich Irish brogue and wilt admirably fit him for his part. Mr Scanlan's Irish songs are unsurpassed, being superior to Emmet's singing, and his support is good. The play is a strong one, and full of humor and pathos. A photograph of the harp of the great Irish poet, Thomas Moore, will be given as a souvenir to those present. The
prices will we popular-75, 50 and 25 cents. Sale of seats next Tuesday morning
