The second w«w>k of the In stitute is drawing to « close, and will possibly end Friday evening, Several new teachers arc in attend ance this week, but the number is yet a good deal short, and if the strict letter of the law is carried out, as Professors Coon and Smith siy it will be, a dearth of teachers will be the result next fall. Prof, Coon has made a strong impression on teachers and spec tators. lie is evidently an up-to. date educationalist, an iconoclast with the nerve to carry out his new ideas, or, as he expresses it, "the law." A number of the teach ers esteem him highly and think he has long been needed. Two thirds possibly consider him as conceited and unnecessarily un kind. Many say they are afraid to ask a civil qwstion for fear of !>e ing humiliated. Several ladies have been brought to tears by his candid remarks and criticism. A conservative estimate of the character of Prof. Coon would possibly rank him as a cynical, sneering, sarcastic, peevish re former, with a large opinion of his own powers, viewing with a kind of contempt the average country school teacher, yet withal con scientious, brilliant, able and erratic, C.

The counsel for Haruinons ail vised Jailed Hannor to break the news gently to their client and in furtherance of this advice, Jailor Hanner first told him that lie had heard that the governor had re fused a commutation. Later when the condemned man seemed so anxious to know whether it was ! official or not, the jailor told him about the telegram. Hammonds, when he heard his keeper tell the official news, was leaning against thajjars of the cell anil he did not seem to move one muscle, being perfectly calm. Hammonds said that he appre ciated the kindness of his lawyers, Messss. S. E. Ilall and W. M. Hendren, and that he thought they had done about all they could for him. He declined to make"h state ment for publication with the ex ception of the words of apprecia tion. The execution will be held, unless tht; death warrant from the governor changes the time of day, between 11 and 3 o'clock and it will be private, with the exception of ministers, officers, newspaper men, and. may be. a few others.
