Thursday morning an examination
was held for the white teachers of the
, public schools in this county. There
were 18 participants in this examina

was held yesterday morning.
Bicycle thieves are again becoming
numerous. During the past few days
- two local cyclists have had their wheels
' stolen and although they have made a
diligent search, have been unable to lo
cate them or even get the slightest
clue that would enable them to appre
i hend the thieves. The only way to pre
- vent such acts is to keep the bicycles
locked when not in use.
With several vigilant officers always
somewhere in that locality, it is be

- been confiscated after it had been taken
from the warehouse and started on its
way to the consignee and it is probable
that the same thing will occur again.

and within a short while had the blaze

done several hundred dollars worth of
