Owing to the large enrollment in tbe Grad ed School this year, it has been deemed ad visable to make a division of the pupils and bave separate exercises for tbe members of tbe first, second and third grades. Tbe exercises for these three grades will take place in tbe Assembly Hail of tbe Graded School build ing os Wednesday morning at 9 o'clock, the sixth day cf June. In order that tbe citizens of cur town may have an opportunity of seeing all of tbe pupils, it has been decided to let the members of tbe first three grad-s assemble with tbe rest of tbe school on the evening of tbe 7?b of June, march through stage entrance upoo tbe stage and in front of the enrteio passing out through the back door. As tbe curtain will rise as 8 o'clock, these pupils will have a half boar before dark in which to reach their homes. On the evening of the seventh of Jone tbe exercises a; tbe Opera House will bejjin at 7.45. This early hoar bas been selected so as to let tbe pupils of grades 1, 2 and 3 get home before dark. One of tbe most in teresting features of tbe Commencement will be tbe marching of th* pupils before tbe cur tain and as the music for tbe march will be furnished by tbe Fourth Regiment Orchestra its interest will be greatly increased. Our orchestra is noted for its cheerfulness in reo deriog service to tbe Graded School, faithful io the perfarmance of its duties voluntarily assumed, and prompt in lending its presence at all of ite appointments. Tbe audience may surely re?y upon tbe fact, thai at 7.45 will be heard the first strains of an inspiriting march. A Talented Young Vocalist. The Augusta papers make quite a feature of tbe reports of the recitals given by the music pupils of Mrs. Nathaniel L. Willett, and in tbe Sunday issues of tbe Chronicle and tbe Herald considerable space is devoted to the last recital. From tbese reports the fol lowing very complimentary references to M?s Beaufort Brand, cf this city, are taken : 5*"Miss Beaufort Brand, a young girl of eighteen, who has been studying only sixteen months and who came then to Mrs Willett entirely new to vocal study, astonished tbe audience with her work on tbi3 ber first ap pearance in any way musically. The Angle's Serenade and Non fu Sogno were especially to be noted Wben nest Mrs. Willett pre sents ber, we are sure, from ber work of Thursday, that she will have made equally great strides in tbe more exquisitely difficult finesse of English Song, the highest ot which requires that tbe eubtle mental and spiritual chemical of lite unfoldmeot and experience be present io tbe crucible of expression. Miss Brand's piano work was also excellent. ?Augusta Chronicle. "Miss Brand has a clear, ringing soprano, with exquisitely pure and powerful high notes that give promise of really wonderful things in the future. She sang with splen did effect a Cavatina from Lombardi, and wee very happy in her rendition of selections by Donizetti, Lynes and De Pinna."?Au gusta Herald. Delgar Hose Company. Mr. Editor : A report is current that tb<? Dalgars held a meeting Tuesday afternoon of last week to con sider tbe course they should|pursce with refer ence to tbe unpleasant situation which b*9 been brought aooat by temporary changes in cident to building tbe new bou?es fo tbe fire department.

Representativo DeArmcnd, of Mis souri, told the republicans some dis agreeable truths ic his speech against, their make-believe proposition for a constitutional amendment authorizing congress to control trusts, which was defeated by democratic votes. After telling them that the proposed amend ment bore upon its face irrefutable evi dence that i; was not in tended-to be placed io the constitution to control trusts, but to be placed in tbe campaign to delude voters, Mr DeArmoD? said : "To what chapter of yoor republi can performances, cao you turn and hope for approval from the people ? ? do cot chide ' you for trying a last desperate effort as a final resource to get something out of this amendment. If you get anything out of it, it will be j because the American peonie are far more s?upid. than I thick they are, and because delusion is much more attract ive to them than plain conduct and honest acts. Can there be anything in the proposition that because you label this anti-trust, we shall not look beyond tbe label ? You have labeled many things other than they are There is not a package of your political oes trums that will bear inspection. It may be taken by label, bat it cannot be by sample, much less by tests of reasonable quantities The power of the people to meet and overcome traste would be lees if this amendment were in the constitution, than it is today. I am willing to amend the constitution, bat I am not willing to amend it so as to take from forty-five States tbe power they now possess to create and control corporations. You propose to take control of these corporations. Yon propose to say which one of tbem you will denounce and destroy, if you destroy any of them, and which you will shelter aod protect. I am opposed to that bind of legislation. Trust have grown witbin the last three yeare as they never have grown before. They ere mightier, they have invaded new fields, conquered new provinces, made new slaves and are mightier today than ever before. And yet you say to the people wait until we get a constitu tional amendment ! Judges have a way of emphasizing their disapproval of those who fai! to proper respect to tho court.

To drop into slang, it may be said that Secretary Hay got tbe "hearse hoot" from the Senate when he asked in tbe name of Mr. McKinley, that tbe Spooner Philippine bill be passed before adjournment. The republican leaders knew that the democratic sena tors meant business when tbey served them with notice that the Spooner bill would not be voted upon at this sessioo, aod abandoned their attempt to get the bill tbroagb, more than a week ago In allowing the claim of Mr. Clark a"d Mr. Maginnis for a peat in tbe Senat?, to go ever to the nest ses sioo, tbe Senate committee oa elec tions really turned tbe matter over to the people of Montana for settlement, as the legislature whi?h will filli tbe vacancy will bo elected this year ex cepting tweive hold-ever senators, and will meet next January, only a few weeks after the reassembling of Con gress Notwithstanding the promotion of Gen. Otis for ending the war in the Philippines, aod numerous denials that more troops were needed over there, Secretary Root now acknowledges that regular troops are to be sent to re-in force Gen. MacArtbur who has been asking for them ever since be suc ceeded Otis. By pooling their issues, tbeee two personal enemies, Gen. Milee and Gen. Corbin, won their long fight for pro motion.

BOER GENERALS SAY CAN HOLD PRETORIA And There Seems to be Re vival of Fighting Spirit. TOWN PH0BA3LY INVESTED London, June 5, 3 25 a m ?Of official intelligence :o?arci?n? wh;:t is transpiring outside Pretoria th^ro is ?i?ici or nothing today.

Johannesburg, :tnd that siz columns ere forging or*. Pretoria An undated news agency messalo from Pretoria, via Lorenzo Marques, June 4, says : ' Pretoria is now invested by the British No resist ance wili be offered. Tho city wiii be surrendered by the burgomaster as soon as formal demand is made " This message purports to come in cipher. President Kruger commands the telegraph eastward from Pretoria, and telegraphic news from Pretoria to Lorenzo Marques has ceased, but the messengers cf newspaper corres pondenents continue to pass to and Iro on the railway. The latest to arrive at Lorenzo Marques brings events at the Boer capital down to a late hour Friday night. At that time, according to this information, the military leaders bad quite recovered from the panic and had determined to defend the town One message, which is dated June I, says : "Pretoria is full of strange burghers, but most of the comman does are laagered outside. A great war council of generals bas just con cluded its deliberations Tbe decis ion as to the future military conree has not been mede known. Louis Botha and Delarey sat in tbe coun cil " Another dispatch brought to Lo renzo Marques by messenger and dated at Pretoria, Friday at midnight, save : "The war council assumes the powers cf the government. Its mem bere declare that tbe capital may still be successfully defended One commander declared : 'With the help of God, the hour will stili come when Great Britain will acknowledge the independence of the two republics. A tremendous change will yet come over the situation ' "Gen Delarey said that Pretoria would be defended to the utmost, adding : 'There is every chance that we will yet beat the enemy out of the country.' "President Kruger is somewhere to the eastward, but is in constant wire communication with the leaders here There is however, a deep feeling of anger against him on ac count of what is now called his un necessary flight and because he and the officials took all tbe gold and left their subordinates unpaid. The latest phase of public opinion is a marvel ous revival of courage " From Lorenzo Marques comes a dispatch, dated June 4, saying : "It is known that some great British movement is in progress outside Pretoria The mysterious movements of President Kruger's secretary and physician, particularly their secret visit to the Dutch warship Friesland which is in tbe harbor here, has aroused suspicions that important personages are expected News from the minor theatres of hostilities is less cryptic Tbe Boer I operations to break Lord Roberts' J communications have been complete ly baffled, and the Boer forces are in ! danger of being surrounded by the British at Ficksburg, Senegal, Heil bron and Lindiey. Gen Rundle, in stead of throwing himself against the Boers intrenched at Bedulphberg, moved toward Ficksburg and estab lished communication with General Brabant The Boers marched paral lel with Rundle, intending to seize a strong position on the Ficksburg road, but Gen Rundle got there first The fifteen hundred Boers who were in this movement are now reported to be going elsewhere The corres pondents with Gen Rundle continue to point out the hardness of the fight of last Tuesday, but they believe that it will be last real resistance.

A new phase of the Anglo-Dutch conflict is opening in Cape Colony. The leaders of the Afnkanderbund propose, it is asserted, to block busi ness in the Cape parliament until the British government acts upon the resolutions adopted by the people's congress at Graaf Reiriet, declaring that the chief immediate cause of the war was the unwarranted and intolerable interference of the ministry in London in the internal effairs of the South African republics.
