A prominent Methodist remarked this morning: "Ilaleigh was particularly honored at tho comiuenc Miient cei eises of the Groenslxro Feiu.i.o College this week. Miss Lizzie Wyiiu.s daugh ter of Mr. J. S. Wynne, has carrie.l off all tho honors for which she competed and has led the class of 1S1J9. Raleigh has cause to bo proud of her record." Not only is the above true but it is a fact that during the two years that Miss Wynne has been a student at the Greensboro College she has led the en tire school, making the highest averag-i f the 150 students in 1he entire insti tntion. This is an honor to herself, her lutrcnts, her city and the training she received at J'eace Institute before she went, to Grecnslvoro. "I had rather live in Raleigh !j:d any place I know," remarked Rev Lev. Branson. "We have made wonderful progress in the last fifteen' years," he continued, "for when the exposition was held here, in 1S84, Raleigh did not have a paved street and scarcely a deem! sidewalk could be found in the city. For my part I believe that the exposi tion under tho wise and progressive management of William S. Primrose, was really the beginning of Raleigh's n wakening. Kver since that exposition the city has been taking on new life, and W. S. Primrose was largely instru mental in giving us tlie first push." J n April, 1808, a party of young gen tlemen from Raleigh enjoyed a picnic at Moore's pond in this countv. The party embraced Messrs. Joe Ellington. Robert Dickson, Edgar Rroughton. Will Moye nnd Powathan Matthews. Whil-' out rowing on the pond, they had the misfortune, they thought, to lose a gun and a ritle, articles which were indis liensnble for the occasion. The arms fell overboard, they thought, and tin pond was dregged and everything possi ble done to recover the lost nrticles but in vain. Xow, however, a note has been received by one of the party informing him that he can get his rifle if ho will come and prove his property. Tho dis coverer says that the rillo was found in the woods standing against a tree. Prof. Campbell of the Ruie's Creek Academy has tho honor of bciug at the head of one of the very best academics in North Carolina. He is now spending several days in the city, since his return from Wnke Forest commencement.

The book embraces about 250 pages. It has been printed by The Capital Print ing Company and ojily remains to b! hound now. The binding will soon be completed.

PARIS, June 1. - Mnrcliand arrived litis morning. lie was vociferously cheered, as he ulighted from a special train, by a crowd of fifty thousand. by police at his carriage to prevent his being overwhelmed by the rushes of his admirers, who covered his carriage with flowers and shouted "Vive Mur clianl."

For more Uian lify years girls have left their Alma Mater; for more than fifty years it has been some one's part to say tho last "good bye," yet the duty seems none the less hard on each successive year, :n d the sorrow of parting from the school of our affections is new t- 11s the class of 'lil. We fi-el that no others couid have valued more highly their school-lit'1, and we know that none ever felt more deep ly than wo the beauty and tie- sadness o la loving farewell. "To our llishop we must say our first good-bye. We appreciate deeply your interest, and the loving care you have shown for St. Mary's, especially during our sad time of trouble. From you. Reverend Father, we feel that we are not really parting, for the greater num ber of us will continue to be under your spiritual guidance and supervision. W e will still bear your earnest wor.s ol guidance and truth. We alone of all St. Alary s graduates have only a reverent pause where a ue- loved name once was. Wo are beret t of that gracious presence which for two and twenty years guided and strengthen ed the great work which his father had beguu. "We see him as he moved, How modest, kindly, all-a.coniplislie.l. wise. With what sublime repression of him self." "Hut, although his visible presence has boon taken from us for a littl. while, the influence of him who lived and worked among us, who had no sin gle thought of self in the accomplish ment of Ins work-, wno gave 111s iruie and love and strength to the glory of God and the service of hi fellow- creatures, this inlluence will never cease to bless and beautify St. Marys aim will be the noblest heritage of all her girls. To our teachers it is Jiarit to say j: ion- bye. It brings us sorrow to tnniK tnai the daily intercourse must cense, and the ties must be broken that have bound us together. You will go your way with your widening influence, and increasing knowledge; we will go ours, with the loving memory of your kind sympatny and ready helpfulness towards us, nun with your earnest words in our minds and hearts. My class-mates, I bid you good-bye i:i the "truest sense of the word. God b. with von. Though we may be far away from each other in times to come, the sympathy and companionship that exist anions us will only grow with tne years, and we will always think of our school- life as a period of varied joys, much experience, and many ennooiing iniiu- onces. May we always look DncK on our Alma Mater with the love we bear her today, and in the battle ot life may we all abide by our motto, "Vive Victor." The year has brought us many things; but its beijt and noblest legacy has been the inlluence of n life given to the ser vice of others. To the friends of St. Mary s, to Un people of Raleigh, in the name of my class. I sav farewell. We extend to yon our gratitude for your sympathy and interest in our work, and we hope that the interest will grow as the years go bys The friendship between you and the girls of the class make us feel sure that our parting will not be a long one. The sorrow of our separation on Com mencement Day is lightened by the pros pect of meeting in the future; and so it is not with entire sadness unit 1 say to our Itishoo and ministers, to my teachers and class-mates, to the people of Raleigh, farewell.
