The change ot' name ofthis lloiirish

derstMKl and fir fear ofthis, we are
not ipiite sure that a more modest
sounding name inijrlit not lie U tter.
Hut the name is a small matter ;
the Jloard is determined to make a
tloiirishin": college out of it and no
matter whether criticisms at pres
ent are adverse or not, the time
will soon comu when the University
will show to the world that she de
serves nil the honor she now assumes.
Tbe selection of the instructors
and the variety of the specialists to
gether with tbe general satisfaction
iven on all sides reflect especial
credit upon tbe efforts of Professor
Bowersox. The movement to pub
lish tbe proceedings of tbe institute
in a thing that should have been
done long Ago and thus place Snyder
county on an equality with ber sister
counties. On the whole, the insti
tute was pronounced by tbe oldest
tencbers tbe most successful insti
tute held for years.
New Ground for Divorce.
A new ground for divorce is tbnt
of a sensitive Han Francisco husband,
a copy of whose petition was shown
to us by n Philadelphia lawyer the
other day. The petitioner says
lileacbed or artificial colored hair
is easily distinguished as such sl
does not appear natural, nor does it
deceive any person, but is perfectly
patent and noticeably conspicuous,
It is regarded by the majority of
right-thinking persons as an indi
cation of a loose, dissolute, and
wanton disposition, and is regarded
so and commonly held to be a prac
tice never affected by a modest, pure
and respectable woman." Ladies
of tbe soda-created golden locks,
what think you of such senti
merits ns these T This husband
claims that ho is mortified nud hu
miliated on Recount of tho change
in tbe color of bis wife's hair, and he
fart hur says in bis petition: "She
is a brunette naturally. Her hair is
of a chestnut brown color, which in
its normal state is modest and be
coming and harmonizes with tbe
natural color of ber skin and eyes.
Since we married she has, against
my wishes and protest, and with
intent to vex, annoy.exasporote, and
sbanin me, dyed ber hair and chang
ed its hbiide to a conspicuous and
showy straw or cannry color. As a
consecpienco of this artificial color
ing she has been obliged to paint
ber face to secure an artificial com
plexion in keeping with tho artificial
color of ber buir. Tbe combination
has given ber a giddy, fast, and
sporty appearance." 1 should not
suppose any women with any spirit
ut all would want to live an hour
with a man who said that about her.
To expose ber to tbe world as a dy
ed blonde and to assert under oath
that she paints I It is too, too much 1
What a monster of a man 1
Honor Worthily Bestowed.
Tho TcncherB Instituto is past
and gone. With it came tho lessons
and experiences that are now tho
record of past events. Xo ono better
understands tho needs and it iuire
meuts of a successful instituto than
the present County Superintendent.
Tlie instructors were of tho very
ablest and by their earnestness and
foiceof character impressed them
selves upon the teachers by means
of usi ful lessons taught. The list is
too long to go into tl,. tails ,f each
instructor's special service in behalf
of our teachers.
Tlie evening entertainments were
of tin-highest character. Dr. Il:tnly
.ii Wednesday night taught many a
usi ful lesson and awakened in the
breast :. many a young man a high-
r ideal of life and a quicker iiiipuli.c
for the hope of a prosperous future.
Dr. Dyron W. King on Thursday
night with a most powerful voice
and a great degree of elocutionary
skill entc ita.ned and delighted the
audience.
