There is wailing and gnashing ol
teeth among the applicants for teachers'
cortlllcates who were examined yesler-
day , s.iys the San Francisco Chronicle.
Of the total of forty-six who entered the
lists on Monday only eleven succeeded
in passing the examination. The re
maining thirty -live encountered a stum
bling block which was as unexpected as
it was disastrous.
The stumbling block was the follow
ing pu/.zling quosUon in grammar.

Of rock-built rltins , bidding nations quake
And monarulH tremble In their capitals ;
Their clay creator their vain tlllo take

stanza , into a paragraph of plain prose ,
as free as possible' from rhetorical
figures and style.
The total { > f credits in the examina
tion in grammar was eighty , but the un
fortunate applicants who failed to cor
rectly answer the question quoted lost
forty credits , thus rendering it impossi
ble to pass. That the question was a
Waterloo to most of the applicants ex
amined is evidenced by the fact that as
stated , that of forty-six only cloven suc
ceeded in answering it correctly. The
percentage of failure on this account is
greater this year than over before in
ttiis city.
Director Woodward states that it is
his intention to bring the matter to the
attention of the Hoard of Education ,
with a view of eliminating the question
propounded by the Hoard of lO.xamlncrs
and giving the disappointed applicants
nnouior cuaii'jo. ' nearly vait ol tnom
passed satisfactory examinations in the
other studies , but their failure in gram
mar barred them from receiving cert Ill-
cat ca until the next , examination. Ho
frays the question was too deep for
second grade applicants , and they
should not have been required to 'an
swer it.

My first meeting with Henry Ward
Hcecher was in the early part of May ,
I80. ! lie was a classmate of a brother
of mine , in Amherst college , and very
close friends. The two wore just out of
their fresiiman year when , together
with another college classmate , they
walked from Amherst to my father's
house at west Sutton for their spring
vacation , writes Mrs. Henry Ward
Heechor in the first paper on "Mr.
Hccdicr a-s 1 Know Him , " in
the October Ladies' Homo .lourn-
il. At that time young Hoidior
was not quite 17 years old.
) t so young and boyish was his ap-
loaranee that no one would have thought
dm more than ISan ago when boys arc
usually awkward and painfully bashful.
[ ' " "or that reason my family feared wo
night not bo able to entertain or make
the young man comfortable. Hut awk
ward ho never was , and his roguish
iiOiitli , his laughing , mo/ry eyes , his
quaint humor , and his quick repartee
' -oon dispelled all such anxiety.
Hoforo the first evening ho spent at
our hoiij-o had passed , none of the family
felt him to bo a stranger.
M\ ' father was absent with : -oino of his
latients when the young men airived ,
jut returned 111 the evening when all
wore laughing heartily at some story
Henry had just told. Father stood in
the doorw.iy tall , dignified and some
what stem , at such a tumult. When
iwaro of his presence , my brother at
once introduced his classmates.
Little by little the same subtle inllu-
oncos which hud pervaded the whole
evening's enjoyment stole over father's
face , and long before it w.is time lo re
tire , they wore tolling mirth-provoking
stories as cheoi fully as if they wore
boys together.
When at length the "good nights'1
wore oxchatiired I left father ami
niolher by the lire I made some prepa
rations for breakfast.
As 1 returned to the room father was
saying :
"Woll , ho is smart ! Ho'll make his
mnrlc in the world if ho lives. "
"Who , father1" ; I asked.
"Why , tlnil young Heechor. "
Such was Henry Wa : ' .I Heojhor when
1 first saw him ; and , tnith lo loll , ho
was not remarkable for his bounty.

the great National hall in the city of

assembled. The matchless singer en

liirnud her face toward ihat parlof the

was sitting , and sang "Homo , Sweet

that a whirlwind of excitement and en
thusiasm swept through the vast aud
ience. Webster himself lost all golf-

that Payne thrilled with rapture at tills
unexpected and magnificent rendition
of his own immortal lyric.

select an opal. The nabob and magnate
often put a whole browintono

and a , single victim in every ease fell by
aconite , corrosive sublimate , ox ilicacid ,
paris green , pruisic acid and rat poison.
Only two chose the very cheapest and
iea-t wasteful course drowning. Hut ,
