THE COLORED HIGH SCHOOL. Prospects Are Promising for a Suc- cessfal Year, *verything at the High School of the seventh and eighth divisions is moving along quietly and satisfactorily, with every prospect of a successful year. Shortly after the formation of the classes the organization of the literary societies, which have been so successful in the past, took place This year’ there are two dis- tinctive clubs, one being for girls and the other for boys, whereas there was only one last year, which comprised both sexes. Harriet Beecher Stowe Literary Associa- tion is the name of the young ladies’ club, tinued operations during the month by blast- ing the hull with dynamite and raising the pieces with a derrick. Early in the month it was found that the derrick boat in use had sufficient power to raise the smaller pieces only. Consequently slow progress was made until November when a large pile- driver with ample power was empioyed in the work. Since the last named date good progress has been made, and iarger dieces of the wreck were removed. A considerable portion of the hull forward of the engine, one wheel, the smokestack, walking beam and parts of the boiler have been already raised. Tae material is being deposited on section 111 of the reclaimed flats for future sale at auction. ——___-e+______ THE NEW SNOW LAW. Provisions of the Act Which the Com- mixsionera Will Enforce. Under the provisions of th: new snow law the Commissioners will .n all proba- bility have it in their power this winter to give work to hundreds of the unemployed and thereby reduce very largely the de- mands upon the pocr fund. This law was enacted only last March, and there have not yet been any prosecutions under it. me doubt is expressed as to whether or not the law contemplates prosecution in the Police Court, but it fs the intention of the authorities to issue warrants in the near future in order to get a decision from the court. Under the eld law owners of unimproved property could not be prose- cuted, while under this law the Commis- sioners are given power to cause the re- moval of the snow and assess the cost against the property. The first section of the law provides: “That the owner or ten- ory it is hersby ordered that the flag be displayed at half mast over the state capi- tol until after the obsequies.” Upon learning of the death ofJudge Thur- man, Governor McKinley said: “The death of Judge Thurman is a deep loss to Ohio and to the nation. His long and useful pub- lic career, characterized, as it was, by no- bility of purpése and purity of character, endeared him to the hearts of the people irrespective of party or politics. His death removes one of the naticn’s greatest states- men and one of Ohio's greatest citizens, and all mourn his loss as we would a be- loved friend.” ®: The Last Hours. No one was present when the last scene came save his son Allen and the members of his immediate family. His physician, Dr. Whittaker, had not seen him since the night before. The judge had been uncon- scious since midnight, ard death finally came like a calm and peaceful sleep. Judge Thurman had been growing rapidly worse since Wednesday night, and at no time during the last hours had his recovery been hoped for. The immediate cause of his death was the fall he sustained some weeks ago, as narrated in yesterday's Star. His son said three days ago that his father was feeling brighter and better than he had at any time sicce his fall. Judge Thurman was eighty-two years old November 13, and had {t not been for his accident he might have lived for a number of years, for the feebleness of age had by no means overcome him. He had not been able to leave his home for more than & year, but he retained much of the power of bis once vigorous mind.

Edward Webb, describing the manner in which the war in Cuba affects the people of Spain: “The principal thing that occupies our minds and hearts outside of school affairs is the embarkation of the Cuban troops. Last Thursday one regiment left, and the next day another. The whole town was wild over it. There have been high masses in the street, with altars, decorations and processicns; banquets and parades by day and illuminations by night. When the sol- diers took the train at 11 o'clock on Thurs- day and Friday nights the whole city poured forth en masse to the railroad sta- tion, our family, with the older students, included. It was a most touching scene. “In spite of great enthusiasm, there was fearful sadness, and the sobs were as fre- quent as the cheers. The poor mothers feel that their boys will have to fight fever more than buliets. At the last minute there was commotion, and people came hurrying up to two of the men (boys they really were) bringing them their release. Parents and friends at this last hour suc- ceeded in raising the money to pay for a substitute, and so save their boys from going to Cuba. The excitement was tre- mendous. “Oh, how I wish this farce of a war was over! It is even worse than war itself, for Spain is being frightfully impoverished. Many young men are losing their educa- tion ‘and prospects in Ife, while other poor families at home are almost dying without their support. Then, with it all, there seems to be no glory, only death in a fever hospital, where, probabiy, as many dle from neglect as from disease itself. It is all so terrible. I do hope the United States will not interfere, for that would only pro- iong the agony and endanger the relations c 5 When the officers for the battalion of ca-|"“('nder the last section of th és pithe tap punta Pe yi 4 s : 2 nder la: af a \- 2e-- ee Credit.
