The first of a aerie of throe

Stars, of Washington, was played
on the grounds at Greenville on
afternoon at o'clock.
The game was closely contested
and witnessed by a large crowd. It
was a pretty game, and as fair one
as could be played, and there was
some splendid work on the part of
both clubs. The players and

precisely the same fate, both sides
doing some excellent work. By

said the bear was killed the field
of Mr. Steve Dawson, just over the

Dick firing the fatal shot.
A party was hunting the bear in the
creek and pursued him so closely
that he went up a ditch into the field.
Several shots were fired in the chase
but without effect until got

Association.
The next meeting of the
Association will be held in the Court
House on Saturday before the 2nd
Sunday in July. Rev. J. L. Winfield
will show the methods of teaching
grammar to beginners. This subject
ought to interest all of our teachers,
for they have all experienced, great
difficulty in getting beginners to
the first principles of gram-
mar.
Miss Smith will continue
the methods of teaching history, and
give a practical outline lesson on the
black board of Washington's Ad-
ministration. Every teacher should
post up on this period of history, and
be prepared to answer any question
that may be asked. Other topics
will be discussed. If the teachers
expect to have good schools they
must get people interested in
their work, and if they do not have
interest enough themselves to attend
these meetings and take part in the
discussions, it will be readily inferred
that the teachers are cot much con-
about education, and are
teaching for other considerations.
We hope to see a large crowd present.

Professor Burton, who has a troupe
of clever dogs, is an old circus man.
He used to be tumbler in the ring.
There comes a day in the life of every
circus tumbler when he must quit the
business and go into something else.
Burton went to training dogs. He has
been with several companies, but is
now on his own hook. He had a val-
troupe of dogs once in NeW
York, but somebody poisoned them.

dogs consists of Italian greyhounds,

Russian spaniel, a

some sort. Of course there are some
dogs that learn quicker than others,
and more tricks. I am always asked
how I teach dogs these tricks. Well,
there is no trick about it that I ever
knew. It takes patience and
kindness. I seldom use the
whip, never in giving instructions.
In fact, I have to be very cautious.
The other day two of my family got
into a squabble. I separated them,
but with trouble. In doing so I had
to cut one of them with the whip.

the more applause they get the better
they act. You may think that is
stretching it, but it is a fact that trick
dogs do better if they arc applauded,
and this is especially true if the
comes from children.
trick dogs know their places
on the stage and take their cue from
my looks. They are as eager for the
