ItlVICT From Sheriff Near Raleigh Still at Large Stmt Interesting FicU and SUtlstics on Our ;.s . Educational Institutions. ( . Prof, Craven has compiled some in . terestihg statistics abou' the graded school of New Bern and in general the report is very good. ; There are some things to show a discredit but we be lieve the figures indicate a sentiment growing in favor of education. - ' There are 1,014 white Children in the " city between, the ges of 6 and 21 years. . Of these only five are unable to read cj write. s The total enrollment for October was 619, 579 pupils live in the city and 40 reside in other places. These last figures represent only 57.11 per cent of the entire enrollment of children of school age. Last year the enrollment in October was 663. The falling off this year is probably due to some extent to the higher rates of tui tion for "foreign" pupils. vr The average attendance for October ' 1904 was 570.85, the past months was 636.04. The tardies in October 1904 were 289 this year they were 6. There are 16 teachers in the school of the average and for the months of October, the average attendance 33. - for each teacher.

St. Petersburg, Nov. 1 Last Light was one long scene of turbulence. There was Speech making on nearly every comer, and important orators were indulging in violent attacks on the Czar and the whole government The speakers demanded the abolition of stll titles and class distinctions, the estab lishment of a purely democratic regime with a constituent assembly and citizen militia. Revolutionists paraded the streets all night. The whole city was filled throughout with a fearful din. Sleep was impossible and the situation today is dangerous. The workmen are crazed with; what they have already gained and apparently believe if they can only exert a little more pressure the millenium will arrive. The most reassuring thing is that there is no leader among the revolutionists capable of directing a great Up heaval, most of thworkiiigwenbeipj uneducated.
