Ik an attempt to torpedo an oil-well, near Bradford, Pa., on the Tth, four menAvere instantly killed, one fatally injured and two seriously hurt. The report was heard for seven miles. One of the victims was hurled three hundred feet, and his head and limbs were torn from the trunk. Two men standing eight feet from the exploding glycerine were not injured. It was believed on the 8th that the number of lives lost m Michigan by the recent forest fires" was* fully §00. A public nieet- -ing in Detroit subscribed $7,000 in ten minutes, and a car-load of supplies was immediately started for the scene of the greatest destitution. The village of Lonacooning, Md., was nearly destroyed by fire on the 7th. Forty- three stores and buildings were burned. Many. families were rendered homeless, and the greatest excitement prevailed. A number of drunken incendiaries set fire to the houses which Were saved from the general * conflagration. Several* persons were killed in their efforts to save their personal effects from the flames. The loss was about ?500|p00.r , ,_ , A tTWEKT^MEtE race took place on the fair-grounds at Minneapolis on the 9th be- tweeli ElSma Jewett, M Minnesota, and Belle Cook, of California, the latter winning in 471-2 minutes. The thoroughbred mare Emma Dixon dropped dead on the fifteenth mile. U^fd Ihe close of business on the 9th there had been received for payment at the Treasury Department in Washington $6,- 242,^00 in, £,ve-per,-cent. coupon bonds underthelQ&i call* and, $14,714,350 in registered'five-per-cent. bonds under the 104th call. The Isfew Tork Silk Manufacturing Company, whose factory is at Marion, jS". J., has suspended payment, with liabilities of $150,000. .,- U^DERtlie direction of the United States Marshalj'fhree white men and two Indian lads weje'executed"afc Eort Smith, Ark., on the 9tb,;;eacb7eonfessing his guilt. The sjjuaw of a trustworthy half-breed in Arizona informed the military authorities on the 9th that thehostilelndians numbered nine hundred. One party was watching the country between Fort Apache and the reservation;* another was moving down to Tonto Creek, and a third, was marching through Pleasant Valley. : The recent death of her husband made a maniac of Mrs. Benton Hammond, of Evansburg, Pa. Some neighbors saw her house On fire, and found her preparing to kill her foiir children with a hatchet and carving-knife. The door was broken down and;all were rescued. Jorcs'KniME.L, a tavernkeeper of Jamaica, L. I., killed his wife the other morning, ■ then set fife to his tavern, and then hanged himself. The Chicago & Alton Eailroad authorities do not believe that the James brothers had anything to do with the recent Gl'endal'e robbery. Keak "Whitmill, Ya., On the Sth, Eobert "Williams and wife had a quarrel and Mrs. "Williams' applied to a neighboring Magistrate for a warrant for herhiisbund's arrest. .'"When the constable arrived to execute tbe warrant, itwasfoundthat *Williams* daughters had murdered and then decapitated him. ; A passenger train was wrecked on the nigbtfof the 8th on the Shelbyville branch of the'Short Iiine Eailroad, near Louisville, Ky., by running down an embankment. About a dozen persons were killed, and several seriously wounded. "No one on board escaped injury. "When the steamer General Sherman arrived at Standing Eock Agency on the 10th to transfer Sitting Bull and party to Fort Eandall,. the uotedSioux declared he would never.go on board alive. He was promptly overpowered by the soldiers, ironed baud andfcfofc, and carried up the gang-plank. The other Indians had displayed some insubordination, but quietly followed when their chief had been subdued. The Apaches have driven large herds of cattle In the Tonto basin toward the mountains, where they are concentrating supplies. ON the llth the little town of Bates City, Mo.,jon the Alton Eoad, seven miles from the :s*e*ene of the late train robber}r, was thoroughly pillaged by two armed and masked men. The steamer Columbia foundered off Frankfort, Mich./on the night of the 10th. Fifteen persons were drowned, and the bodies of Captain Malcom, Engineers William Crosby and William Muflliu and a Miss Fitzgerald, of Chicago^ floated , ashore- Seven persons got into the small boats and escaped. The steamer sailed from Chicago for Cblllngwood, and was laden with grain* A Kansas Citv (Mo.) special of the 10th says the excitement over the late train robbery continued at fever-heat. Kine arrests had been made of men supposed to belong to the gang of robbers. It was thought that Matt Chapman,, the first one of the party arrested, had given the rest away, and made a clean confession In order to clear himself. It had leaked out that the officer had a very strong link in the chain of evidence against Chapman before he was apprehended. An Independence special of the same date states that the officers, after thorough investigation, had revealed evidence corroborating the supposition that Jesse James led the gang who robbed the train on the 7th. Jesse L. Wautjian, Deputy Collector of Customs at Cincinnati, has been suspended from office. There is said to be a deficit of from $8,000 to $10,000 in his accounts. Whh<e a, train was backing up from Mouni; Forest to Glencoe, Mich., on the llth a falling tree struck the caboose, sweeping five men out under the wheels of the engine. Ernest "Voight and William Lynch were instantly killed; Reuben Wright died soon afterward, and Eraiik Beyerly was not expected to recover. It was announced from Long Branch on the llth that the Secretary of the Treasury had, with the concurrence of the President, decided to issue another call for $30,000,000 of five-per-cent. bonds. A stokm at Danville, Va., .on the evening of the 10th blew down the Confederate military hospital, and seriously injured several of the inmates. Abarty of fifty tramps* boarded a Pennsylvania freight train near Harrisburg and threatened vengeance if any attempt were made to put them off. The train was.de- **" Jayed until a car-load of police could be transported to the scene of trouble, when nearly twenty of the tramps were captured. Cornelius 0-*Leary, his wife and three children, of Cincinnati, ate cannedmackeral on the evening of tire llth, and were fatally poisoned, it^was thought. Crow Dog has been indicted at Dead- wood for the murder of Spotted Tail. He will be tried in January. On the llth Charles Bolles, of Minneapolis,, attempted to kill his wife, but his revolver hung fire. Furious, he turned the muzzle upon his own brains and achieved eminent success. He fell dead. Personal and PoIiticAl. In the Thomas trial in Chicago on the 7th Eev. Dr. Parkhurst presented amended charges, setting forth that Dr. Thomas taught doctrines contrary to the Articles of Religion of the Methodist Church, contrary to the established standard of doctrines of said Church, and contrary to the belief of the Church. The charges were also accompanied by specifications in detail. Dr. Thomas replied to the charges and specifications, alleging indefiniteness, and that the charges were made for insufficient reasons. He pleaded not guilty to all the charges. The Pennsylvania Republican Convention, held at Harrisburg on the Sth, indorsed the administration of Governor Hoyt; declared in favor of a tariff which will discriminate in favor of American industries, thereby promoting "the causes which,are rapidly making America the controlling power in finances, as it already is an established leader in political thought"; expressed hearty accord with the Administration of President Garfield,' and deep and heartfelt sympathy for him in his sufferings, aud a prayerful hope for his recovery; etc. General S. M. Bailey, of Fayette County, was nominated for State Treasurer. Shinkel, who had been accused of "giving away" the Cornell crew, arrived at JSTew York on the 8th, from Europe. He denied the allegations of his late comrades, and threatened to commence legal proceedings against them. The fortieth birthday of ihe assassin Guiteau occurred on the 8ih. He called the attention ofthe Warden and guards to the fact", and suggested that persons sometimes received presents on such, occasions. "No affirmative response was given him. Itwas, however, suggested by some that the best present would be " a spider iu his dumpling." Guiteau was said to be in remarkably good health, slightly heavier than when he was committed on July 2, and in better spirits than a few days before. He had, by some means, learned that the President had been taken to Long Branch. A dispatch of the 9th says: "When he sees or hears anything that indicates the President is getting better, he states that he is praying for his recovery, but when there- verse is heard, he intimates that the inspiration he had to kill the President is right, and that if he (the President) dies, it will be because it was decreed by Providence. Recently he has spent much time in studying his ease, and, evidently from his questions, he will try the insanity plea, for he is asking what will be th3 effect of a verdict in his case, should he be declared not guilty by reason of insanity—whether, on such a verdict, he would be sent to the Insane asylum for an indefinite period, or only until the officers should pronouuee him sane, or whether the verdict could not be as above, with the addition of the words, at the lime of the commission ot the crime, and, in the event of such a verdict, whether- he would not be entitled to his freedom." Ira D. Sankey has gone to Europe, where he^will soon be joined by D. L. Moody, to inaugurate an extended revival in Great Britain. At the recent election in San Francisco Ihe Republicans elected their candidate (Blake) for Mayor, by 2.092 majority, and Sedgwick for Sheriff, by 3,405. Grady, the Democratic candidate for Tax-Collector, won by a majority of 396. The trial of Eev. Dr. H. W. Thomas on the charge of heresy was concluded in Chicago on the 9th. The committee returned a verdict convicting him of disseminating doctrines contrary to the Articles of Religion and established standards of doctrine of the Church. All the charges and specifications were sustained. Presiding Elder Willing then an-' -nounced as follows: ''By paragraphs 209 and213 of the Discipline I find that it is settled that Dr. Thomas is suspended from the ministry and church privileges of the Methodist Episcopal Church until the ensuing Annual Conference." The Conference which" will pass finally on the case Will meet "at Sycamore in October. "Mrs. Lielie Robinson, of Boston, recently applied to the Supreme Court of Massachusetts for permission to practice, and was answered that it would be contrary to the Constitution to permit a woman to dis- chiirge" the duties of an attorney. When relieving- the guard at the jail in Washington on the llth, Sergeant Mason shot at Guiteau through the window of his: cell, and came near killing him. The ball grazed his head and was imbedded in the wall of the cell. Mason was promptly arrested and incarcerated in the arsenal. Dr. Thomas, of Chicago, on the 10th received from Presiding Elder Willing official noljee pf the former's suspension from ministerial services and church privileges. One ofthe counsel forthe defense stated that DivThomas was surprised andpained atthc verdict, but would defend himself to the last against all charges. « It is stated that the Fusion Republican State Executive Committee of Virginia has called upon Federal office-holders of Virginia to contribute two per cent, of their salaries to the Readjuster campaign fund, " Foreign, It was reported from London on the 7th that Dr. Kieinsmith, the naturalist, Mr. Littleton and two of Dr. Kleinsmith's assistants had been murdered by the natives near "Noumea, New Caledonia. The murders were without provocation. The crews of two British sloops pursued the murderers, killing' three of them. The fourth, supposed to.be the ringleader, escaped. The residence of the Khedive of Egypt was surrounded.on the 9th by four thousand soldiers, with thirty pieces of artillery, who demanded the dismissal of all the Ministers and an increase.of the army to 18,000 men. The Khedive was compelled to.yield, and appointed Cherif Pa$ha President of the Council. The troops then gave cheers and withdrew- - The Czar of Russia met the Emperor of Germany, the Crown Prince and Bismarck afcDantzic on the 9th. The Imperial yachts met off the harbor, and late in the afternoon the two Emperors drove into the city amid artillery salutes and the peeling of bells.* To show the warmth of their meet ing it is stated that they several times kissed each other. Three ''suspects" were released from Galway prison on the 8th. Four others were offered release if they would sign a ' 'promise to be good for the future." They refused to sign. Father Sheehy is reported to be quite ill. Archbishop Croke and Bishop Fitzgerald, who visited Davitt, report him in excellent health. There is a report from Tunis that, in a severe battle at Hammamet, on the 7th, between the French troops and the Arabs, the town was entirely destroyed. The French had occupied the town, and it looks as if they had been worsted in the fight. Hammamet was a seaport of Tunis, with a population of S.000. By the fall of a mass of rock from the mountain top, the village of Reichenbach, Switzerland, has been almost demolished. King Kalakaua, of the Sandwich Islands, has secured from 5,000 to 1.0,000 Portuguese immigrants to settle on the waste places near Honolulu. A Cairo (Egypt) dispatch of the llth says the Khedive, as a precautionary measure, had shipped the public treasure to the city 'of Alexandria. Tlie President. IN their official bulletin issued on the afternoon of the Sth Drs. Bliss and Hamilton say: "By special request of the President, it has been our duty to say, in this public manner, to Surgeon-General J. K. Barnes, Surgeon J. J. Woodward and Dr. Robert Res'burn, that, in dispensing with their services as his medical attendants, he was actuated only by a wish to relieve them of labor and responsibility, which, in his improved condition, he could no longer properly impose upon them. Both the President and Mrs. Garfield desire to express to these gentlemen personally, and in the same public: manner, their high appreciation of the great skill and discretion Which they have so constantly exercised as associate counsel in the management of his case up to the present time." Ox the Sth special prayers for the recovery of the President were offered at Long Branch, and the day was generally observed in like manner throughout other portions of New Jersey and in Massachusetts and Maine. The condition of the President on the 10th was not altogether satisfactory, although much more favorable than on any preceding Saturday since" he was wounded. During the night he was quite restless and talked incoherently at times. This was followed by a dullness which worried his attendants. The physicians discovered that the right bronchial tube was congested, and a febrile increase later in the day than usual gave rise to fears that an abscess was forming in the lungs. Dr. Agnew expressed the hope that the congestion might be thrown off, but should an abscess be manifest, he said it would be necessary to cut for it. On the llth the unpleasant symptoms continued, andthe President seemed to have had something very like a relapse into his old Washington conditiou. The morning bulletin reported the pulse at 104, and the temperature at 99.4; buf it was added that the wound continued to improve, and the parotid suppuration had greatly diminished, and that the President "slept well during the night at intervals of half an hour to an hour." At noon the pulse had increased to 110, and the temperature to 100; at 6 p. m. the pulse was 110; temperature, 100.6; respiration, 20. In his dispatch to Minister Lowell at 10:30 p. m. Secretary Blaine said that the President had been somewhat better since 5 a. m., but his pulse, temperature and respiration had been higher for the entire twenty-four hours than on -any preceding day since he reached Long Branch. His dispatch closed: "His other symptoms are not reassuring, and his general condition gives rise to anxiety." The President's appetite continued good and his food appeared to be easily assimilated. "LATER toWS. The President's condition was more encouraging on the 12th. The parotid gland had practically healed, and he had much less trouble with his lungs. During the day some members of his Cabinet visited the sick chamber and consulted with the patient with respect to their official duties. A much better feeling prevailed than on the preceding day, and both surgeons aud attendants reported the distinguished patient as progressing favorably. At noon his pulse was 106 and his temperature 99.2. At 5:30 p.m. the pulse was 100; temperature, 98.6 and respiration 18. In the absence of Mr. Blaine, Mr. McVeagh reported to United States Minister Lowell that the President's condition had greatly improved, but that the state of his lungs would continue to be the occasion of anxiety for some days to come. It was stated at the War Department on the 12th that the Department would promptly surrender Mason to the civil authorities if they would try him for the attempted murder of Guiteau, but that, otherwise, he would-be tried by court martial. Guiteau had been removed to another cell. The Greeley Arctic expedition reached Lady Franklin Bay August 3, and established a station at Discovery Harbor. A house was erected on the site used by the English expedition.. Proe. King and seven companions made a balloon ascension from St. Paul on the evening of the 12th, in a gentle northwest wind. The balloon was weighted with five hundred pounds of provisions and instruments and two tons of ballast, and it was the intention to reach the Atlantic coast. THE special election held in the Lewiston (Me.) District on the 12th for a member of Congress to succeed Senator .Frye, resulted in the choice of ex-Governor Dinglcy, the Republican candidate. On the night of the llth a party of forty disguised men broke into the residence of three brothers named Mahoney, near Knockhagrc, Ireland, and shot them in a fatal manner. ON a railway train running from Paris to Turin a few days ago a man entered a first- class coupe, occupied by a gentleman who was alone, and, after wounding the latter seriously, threw him out of the carriage windows From a card found in his trunk, the victim was believed to beHerr Niemack, Ihe Gcrrilan Consul at Leghorn. The village of Elm, in Switzerland—a place of about 900 inhabitants—was the scene of a terrible calamity on the evening of the llth. A mountain land-slide overwhelmed thirty houses and buried 200 persons. It was stated on the 12th that the survivors ofthe 17th Indiana volunteers were about to bring suit against the city of Indianapolis for $300,000. They say that, oii (heir re-ehlhtment in 1864, they were offered $400 each to credit themselves to the State capital, but were paid only $50. PRESIDENT GARFIELD'S RIDE TO LONG BRANCH. Tlio Wounded President Taken from "Washington to Long Branch—How the Removal Was Accomplished— Incidents of the Journey—Tlie L.ong- Sufferins Patient Pnt Safely in Bed. In the Francklyn Cottage. "Washington, Septembers. At precisely 5:40 the President was carried from the sick-room to the express wagon (which had been backed up to the steps of the front portico), bv Doctors Bliss, Reyburn ahd Boynton, General Swaim, Colonels Rockwell and Corbin, and Messrs. C. O. Rockwell and Warren Young, who remained with the patient during his removal to the depot. The President was reclining in a peaceful position on tfie bed upon which for so many days he had been suffering and fighting for life. His right hand was laid upon his breast, while his left arm was stretched at full length upon the Cov- ei-let. His high forehead was covered by a linen cloth, and his features, though emaciated, wore a patient and resigned expression. A small platform had been erected from ^the portico to the wagon, and across this the bed was tenderly and carefully carried and deposited in the wagon. There was no mishap whatever in transit, and when the horses were hitched to the vehicle and started at 5:50 for the depot a feeling of relief took possession of the bystanders, for in the opinion of many the most perilous portion of the journey had been accomplished. The conveyance was preceded to the depot by carriages containing the remainder of the party which was to accompany the President to Long Branch. As the express wagon moved away from the Executive Mansion, the President feebly, but cheerily, lifted his left hand and wayed farewell to the inmates of the house who had assembled on the porch to wish him God-speed on his journey. The wagon was driven slowly through the grounds of the mansion and down Pennsylvania avenue to the Baltimore & Potomac Depot, the horses at no time being driven faster than a walk. At the head of each horse stood a man ready to assume control of the animals in case of need. Fortunately, no such precaution was necessary, the ride to the depot being-accomplished without any incident occurring worthy of note. The crowd which followed was orderly and anxious—anxious,not only for the safe transportation of the patient, but also to catch a glimpse of his face. This was not difficult to do, as the curtains of the wagon were rolled up to enable the President to breathe the pure morning air, which at that hour bad not yet become sultry. The depot being reached, the horses were detached from the wagon, which was backed up to the car selected for the removal of the President, and the same gentlemen who had before performed the duty of transferring the patient from the White House to the wagon removed him from the wagon to the railroad car. Though they met with some Slight difficulty in doing this, owing to the faot that- the floor of the car was rather high, the delicate task was performed successfully, and without appearing to disturb the patient. When inside the car, he was transferred from the bed on which he had been carried thus far and placed upon the spring-bed prepared for his reception. The remainder of the party having already taken their seats, the sigual for departure was given, and, amid silence, the train, at 6:30, began to move. The party who accompanied the President (exclusive of the railroad attaches) consisted of Mrs. Garfield and-her daughter Mollie; Drs. Bliss, Agnew, Barnes, Woodward and Reyburn; Colonel and Mrs. Rockwell and their daughter, Miss Lulu Rockwell; General Swaim, Colonel Corbin, Private Secretary Brown, Dr. Boynton, Mrs. Dr. Edson, C. O. Rockwell, Warren S. Young, and servants. THE CAR IN WHICH THE. PRESIDENT TRAVELED. A car had been specially refitted for the President's accommodation. The seats were all taken out and the car thoroughly renovated. A. false top was put in a few inches below the roof of the car in order to give air an opportunity to circulate between It and the roof so as to keep the car cool. The partition was taken out and replaced by folding-doors, and storm-doors added to the platform-doors. Wire gauze was fastened on the outside of the car, completely inclosing the parlor apartment to keep the car free from dust. The inside was hung With heavy curtains, and Brussels carpet was laid on the floor. The bed was also placed in position, and mattresses provided. Two large ice-boxes" were added, well-filled with ice. About forty men were employed in the work, which was finished in seven hours. Along the Rontc. Baltimore, September 9. The train beajring the President passed Bowie, seventeen miles this side of Washington, at 7:10, Philadelphia time. The following dispatch was thrown off: " The President is so far doing so well that the surgeons would like to increase the speed where it can be safely and comfortably done." Engine No. 5, in charge of Train-Master Bell and Assistant Road-Foreman Wallis, running as pilot engine ahead of the train bearing the President, passed through the Union Depot at 7:48. At the depot perfect quiet prevailed, the building and track iu the vicinity having been cleared of all engines and cars. Passing trains had been held back, and the tunnel from one end to the other was entirely clear ahd free from 3inokc.' The train, bearing the President passed at 8:02 at a slow rate of speed on the track, outside the depot, making no stop. Few persons were about. Superintendent WilJ^ins received the dispatches thrown from the train and handed them to representatives of the press, and kindly gaVe therii the use of the railroad wires to forward their messages into the city offices. The President has stood the fatigues of travel up to this hour with remarkable fortitude. His pulse is even less frequent than it was before leaving Washington. It is now 106. The arrangements are so complete in every detail that the inconvenience to the President is reduced to a minimum. The bed upon which he is now lying is so carefully adjusted that the* vibrations are hardly noticeable. The train ran from Washington to Baltimore at an average speed of thirty miles per hour. It is found Ais rate of speed causes less annoyance than if it was reduced one- half. At seven o'clock the President took three ounces of beef tea wifh relish. " Chester, Pa., September 0. The President's train passed the depot here at about twenty-five miles an hour, The President's car was apparently tightly closed, and no bulletin was thrown off. While the locomotive of the Presidential train was receiving coal at Lamokin, Dr. Agnew told Dr. Milner, of this city, that the President had Improved since he left Washington, and was getting along very comfortably. They Were glad to get out ol Washington, for the heat w-as oppressive. The doctors on the" train were well pleased with the progress the train was making. The car was quite free from jolt or jar, and they had high hopes of reaching Long Branch with no bad results. The President had suffered very little fatigue. Dr. Agnew seemed in excellent spirits. Philadelphia, Pa., September 6. The Presidential train ran over the Philadelphia, Wilmington & Baltimore division of the road forty-nine miles an hour. When the President was informed that more than half the journey had been completed, he was greatly pleased, and said this was decidedly the most interesting day of any since he was shot. General Superintendent Kenney, of the Philadelphia, Wilmington & Baltimore division of the Pennsylvania Railroad, was on the President's train. He says it is true thatthe President's pulse fell ten beats before reaching Baltimore. The President was cheerful, and, when asked if he would like to travel faster* replied: "Yes, I rather like it." Mr. Kenney says he seemed to be in very good spirits, and was not under the effects of any opiates. He was as rational as could be, aud occasionally chatted with the doctors. Mr. Kenney added that he was surprised to see the number of people who turned out, particularly in country places, to witness the passage of the train. Even at prominent stations where there were crowds the people raised their hats with reverence, and all seemed affected by the gravity of the situation. At "Long "Branch. Xong Branch, N. J., September 8. The Presidential train arrived at Elberon at 1:10 p. m., and reached the cottage ten minutes later. There were about 20,000 persons in the vicinity of the President's quarters. The regular troops were on guard, and no difficulty was experienced in preserving perfect order. No sound was heard to mar the quiet of the neighborhood. Mrs. Garfield, upon arrival, passed from the President's car to the preceding coach. She looked calm and not at all worried. IsTo difficulty was experienced in preventing a too near approach of the people. No exicitemeut prevailed— only a natural curiosity. Just before reaching the cottage, at 1:15 p. m., the train was brought to a standstill, and the first ear, used by the attending physicians, and baggage car, were detached and pushed by hand around a sharp curve, making a semicircle about the President's cottage. Following this proceeding the car in which the patient was lying was gently pushed over the saine course till it reached the entrance to the cottage, at which point it Avas stopped and a large awning was thrown around the portico, so thatthe sun could not fall upon the patient, and he could notbe observed by the anxious spectators. The removal from the car to the room prepared for the reception of the President was accomplished without exciting him in any manner whatever, and, while he was apparently a little fatigued, he did not complain, and seemed to he perfectly calm aiid well satisfied. * Dr. Bliss said, in response to interrogatories, that the President stood the journey extremely well, his pulse not having been higher than 110.* Colonel Corbin, who accompanied the attendants upon the President to Long Branch, says. the President stood the journey remarkably well; that, upon nearing Long Branch, one of the party suggested that it would soon be time to take a bath, in reply to which the President said: "We need progress just now more than a bath." At every town aud station along the route, said Colonel Carbin, a mass of human beings congregated to witness the passage of the train, in most instances entire multitudes standing with uncovered heads, and exhibiting feelings of sympatlry. The evening bulletin has had the usual effect, causing considerable excitement, and some persons feel very despondent. No apprehension is felt 'by the surgeons, however, as they expected the journey would result in a considerable rise in pulse and temperature. Dr. Boynton said to-night: "The pulse remains about the same as at the time the evening dressing was made. If the President should die before to-morrow morning I should hold to the opinion that his removal was the proper thing to do. He was dying inch by inCh in Washington, and I still hope that here he will gain sufficient strength to recover. I think a favorable change in the pa,tient probable by morning. If there is, we shall, of course, be more hopeful, while, on the other hand, we shall feel anxious if there is not. The wound and gland are all right. The trouble is that the President's system is so much run down that the question arises: Has.-he sufficient' recuperative power left to react from the fatigue?"' OFFICIAL BULLETIN. The evening official bulletin issued by the physicians is as follows: September C—8:30 p. m.—Since the last bulletin was issued the President has been moved from Washington to Long Branch. He Y.-as more-restless than usual last nfebt, beinsr evidently somewhat excited by anticipations of his journey. This morning at5:afl his pulse was 118; temperature, 99.8; respiration, 18. We left "Washington with the President at 6:30 a. m. Owing to the admirable arrangements made by the Pennsylvania Railroad Company, and to the ingeniously arranged bed designed by T.N. Ely, the f'atiguo incident to transportation was reduced to a minimum. Nevertheless, as was anticipated, some signs of disturbance produced by the journey have been exhibited since his arrival by a rise of temperature and increased frequency of pulse. At present his pulse is 124; temperature, 101.6; respiration, 18." SECRETARY BLAINE'S DISPATCH. Secretary Blaine sent the following dispatch to Ministers Morton (Paris) and Lowell (London) at!0:30 p. m.: "Tho President left Washinjrton at half-past Six this morning, and reached Long Branch at twenty minutac past one. He seemed to bear the journey well, though the heat was very oppressive. After his arrival he was, for several hours, restless, showed signs of great fatlsue. and complained that his back had a biuised feeling. His pulse rose to 124 and his temperature to 101.6. At this hour, halt-past ten, ho is sleeping and his fever is abating. His surgeons regard hia* symptoms as a necessary result of the journey, and expect a favorable change in this nir, within the next two days. Thefever is in part attributed to the excitement he felt at tho prospect of coming. He earnestly desired to leave the White House, and his weary eyei* welcomed tho sight of the sea. The develop* ments of the next sixty hours are awaited with solicitude." THE FOREST FIRES IN MICHIGAN. Detroit, Keptember 8. The horrors of the situation in Sanilac and Huron Counties, on the shores of Lake Huron, are deepening every hour. Thcdistress is unparalleled. It is believed that 300 people have perished, and It is feared many more, while thousands are stripped of everything—food, shelter, crops, stock—all swept clean from the face of the earth. The people need most everything necessary to sustain life and clothe themselves. Accounts continue to come in of the most harrowing description. A special to the Post and Tribune says; " George MacDonald, of Mindeii, Sanilac County, tells a harrowing tale; over 200 families are homeless in that section, and suffering from want of food and clothing. " John Ballentine, of Verona Mills, says that fifty-three lives were known to be lost in the neighborhood of Sand Beach. The fire suddenly reached Verona Mills on Monday, and the town was soon wiped out. The wind was so strong that Ballentine and wife were picked up and blown fifteen !or twenty yards. "Inthe vicinity of Richmondsville and Western Forester and Marion Townships, reliable information leads me to say that upward of 300 persons perished in the flames. There was no escape for them. The woods and the ground were so dry-that no warning of danger was given. Faster than a race-horse came the fire. It would embrace house or barn Avith its contents, and away to the next. Persons who have been through the terrible ordeal say that in ten minutes from the time the fire struck there would be no vestige of a house left. I have just returned from a trip through the burned district, and the description of the sights would make the reader's blood turn cold. In many instances men, women and children were found lying on their faces in the road where thejr had fallen when overtaken by fire. Children were found lying on logs where they had clambered for safety. There was no finding each other when once separated. Many took refuge in wells and root houses, thinking to escape, but In almost every instance were soffocated." The Post-Tribune correspondent telegraphs: "The details of the disaster in Huron County are as bad as in Sanilac County. I believe that when the returns are in 1,000 persons will be found to have perished In the flames. ~ " ~ "The Rev. W. F. Allington found sixteen dead bodies near Deckerville. Only five buildings are left between that place and Minden. "John Flytewager's family of seven children and wife were all burnt together in Paris Township, with seventeen others. The Day family were burned, with Morris Clifford, wife and child. A man and woman are lying dead In the road between Don- ner's Mill and Tyre. '' Fifteen families were burned in Moore and Argyle. Five hundred families are reported at Minden as having been burned out. A woman was burned at Smith's Mill, half a mile from Tyre. •' Wherever a house is left the people flock to it like sheep to a fold, In some places as many as six families being in alog shanty. They must have relief from below, or great suffering will be the result.' I saw many families to-day who hadn't had one meal since Monday, and don't know when they will get one. Their teams are all gone, and cows and other stock burned. Desolation stares them in the face. They talk abptit their misfortunes, and many say, bad as-it is, it might be a great deal worse. They "are glad to get away with their lives. Many of them are Canadians, who had been over but a short time, and had just begun to get matters in comfortable shape. Many need medicine and medical assistance." The farm of the widow of John Klopf, living amile «ast of Daner's, was totally cut off from all communication with the neighborhood, and What the fate of herself and family of three daughters will be cannot at this writing be determined. A party seen at the Indian school-house, who came in from the east, reported the woods and fences all on fire, and the people fighting to save their property. People are nearly blinded by smoke. Water is scarcely to.be had, and stock is suffering. For the past three days Tuscola has seemed to be literally on fire. ° Reports from every direction indicate terrible loss and suffering. Nearly 100 families between Caro and Cass City are burned out. A number of buildings in Cass City burned, and for miles around the people are flocking into the town, scorched and destitute, many of them having lost everything. Reports are crowding in thick and fast, and from these are learned enough to know that the suffering in Huron, Sanilac and Tuscola Counties will -exceed that of 1871. Wednesday, at Cass City, a number of persons were brought in maimed for life from the effects of burns, and it was reported on good authority last night that several dead bodies had been found. In the towns of Wells, Novesta and Dayton undoubtedly many lives have been lost. The following appeal for aid has been issued by the Committee of Citizens of Po rt Huron, headed by Senator Conger, Mayor Carleton, and others:- To the People of the United States: A most appalling disaster has fallen upon a large portion of the Counties of Huron and Sanilac, with some adjacent territory, a sec" tion of country rfecently covered with forest, and now occupied by nearly o^ODO people, largely recently settled, and cither poor or in very moderate circumstances. In the whole of this sectionthere has been but little rain during the past two months, and-everythlng was dry when, on Monday, Septembers, a hurr.cane swept over it, carrying with it a sheet Of ilame that hardly anything could withstand.- "We have advices of 200 persons burned to death, many of them by the roadside or in the Iield3 while seeking places of safety, and it is probable that twice this number have perished. We have reports from twenty or. more townships in which scarcely a house, barn, or supplies of any kind are left, and thousands of people are destitute and helpless. All of there people require immediate assistance, and most of them mustdepend on charity for months to come- We are doing all in-our power to succor them* but the necessities of the case are so great that contributions from charitable people throughout the country will be required to keep them throughoutthe winter. Wo the efore appeal to you to send money, clothing, bedding, provisions, or any other supplies that will help maintain the sufferers, and enable them to provide shelter for themselves, and begin work again on their farms. Contributions may bo sent to the Mayor, - E, C. Carleton, Chairman of the Belief Committee appointed by the citizens of Port Huron, who have sent agents through the burned district to ascertain the wants of the sufleresj and distribute supplies. The Recent Train RoWbery in Missouri.' Kansas City, Mo., September 7. Shortly after nine o'clock to-night the incoming ' Chicago & Alton passenger train that left Chicago Tuesday at 12:30 was stopped and robbed by a band of robbers three miles east of Independence and fourteen east of Kansas City. The train was flagged and then ten or twelve men entered the cars and robbed the' express-car, baggage-master, conductor, Pullman conductor, and all the passengers, except in the rear car. The ladies in the sleeping-car, some fifteen in number, were relieved of diamond ear-rings, rings, watches and money. They got about $2,500 from the passengers, and it is thought about the same amount from the express safe. The express messenger, H. A. Fox, was terribly beaten over the head with a revolver, and at last gave up the keys of the safe, and the robbers took all the contents. When they entered the Pullman- car, five in number, all were masked, and while one held an open bag or pilfdw>case., each person was relieyed of his or her valuables, which were thrown indiscriminately into the bag. The car conductor, J. J. Price, lost his watch and chain and $100. J. M. Hazelbaeher, the train conductor, ran through the train, alarming all passengers, and telling them that the robbers were on board, and then ran back and flagged a* freight train, running very elosfc; He then ^ came back to the train, and was at once searched' but had thrown his watch into the ladies' closet, and so they got nothing. One ofthe robbers poked a revolver into his face,ahdsaid: " That is the pistol thatkllled Westfall, on the Rock Island Road, and It will kill you if you stir." The same man said he was Jesse James, and that they robbed the Alton train because it had joined with the Rock Island and others to capture the outfit. He also said they would burn the cars and bridges if an organized pursuit was made. Another man in the gang also said he was Jesse James, and, after robbing the engineer, Choke Foote, gave him back two dollars and told him that, when he reached Kansas City, to go and get a drink and quit railroading out in this section or he would be killed the next time. The robbers talked all the time, and all wore white masks. Some had hats on, and some had not, but all wore long dusters. They were armed with shotguns, old-fashioned blunderbusses and pistols, and had on high-top boots and farmers' clothes. The place where the robbery took place is In a deep cut, near where the Missouri Pacific track crosses it, and the country is hilly and well wooded, and just suitable for such a robbery. It is only a few miles from Glendale, where the Alton train was robbed in 1879 by Jesse James and gang, when they secured nearly $15,000. As Soon as the robbers had gone through all the passengers, they told the engineer to pull out, and s aid: "Good night, this is the last of the James boys' gang." The train came at once to Kansas City, and posses of men have already left by special train and on horseback to head oft the highwaymen, if possible. T. F. or Frank Burton, the brakeman, made the following statement of the robbery: "I was standing on the front platform of the sleeper when the train stopped, and I heard voices and oaths on the back platform. I said, in a moment: 'We are going to be robbed.' Then one of the robber3 cried out: *We are coming In and going through you all.' I remember that the freight-train was just behind us, and I heard it coming up. I jumped off and ran with my lantern down the track. They commenced shooting at me. The bullets Whistled all around me, and struck the rails and stone. They must have fired twenty-five shots. The engineer said: 'For God's sake, don't shoot the boy. He is saving the lives of these people.' Then one of them threw up his arms and cried: 'Stop shooting!' I rolled into the cut and waved my lantern. The freight-train was stopped only a car-length off. When I came back one of the robbers said: 'Have you lost anything?' I answered, 'Fifty cents.' He gave me one dollar and fifty cents for interest. Then I heard one of the robbers say to the engineer: 'Choppy Foote, you are too good a man to keep up this business. Here's $2 to buy a drink in the morning, .and to drink it for Jesse James. I warn you you'll be killed if you don't leave this road. We , are going to tear up and bust the Alton and the Rock Island Roads, for they've been offering rewards for us. We've no grudge against the Pullmans, and we'll switch off . their cars and burn all the rest. I am the man who killed Westlake, at Winston. He was too smart, and drew arevolver.'' Burton did not believe it was" Jesse James, nor any of his gang. They all acted green at the business, and he thought they were men , iving in the vicinity. They made no attempt to disguise their voices. Frank Lombard, the news-agent, was.In- " terviewed by a Tribune reporter and said: " I was sitting in the smoking-car talking with the conductor, Jack Hazelbaeher. We were then on the up grade, about four miles from Independence. All of a sudden the train came to a stop, I said to Hazelbaeher: •There is another freight-train in our way, I suppose.' We heard loud voices and pistol shots. Hooked out and saw lanterns flashing. We knew that train robbers were .-. on-us. Hazelbaeher ran back into the train and warned the passengers. They were all looking out of the windows until therobi bers called out to them to pull in their heads and keep quiet. The rob- , bers had stopped the train by putting an obstruction on the rails and signaling. I am sure there were a dozen of them, and some of the passengers place the number at sixteen. Everybody was panic- stricken and helpless. Iran out of the car and found the men guarding the engineer" and fireman. They were poorly masked, but all armed with Henry rifles. They were swearing loudly and shooting at random. Some of them passed into the mail-car, but did not touch anything, Express-Messenger Fox in the meantime had barricaded the express-car. They climbeditpon tbecar, rac around and began i o shoot. They broke into the car and knocked Fox down by a violent blow on the head. They then robbed the safe of everything. I ran back into the smoking-car and hid most of my money.. The robbers came in and ordered me, with .an-oath, to lie down. I did so, and they shoved a gun up to my head aud told me to fork over. I said my money was under the cushion. They told me to get it, and I got it in a hurry, yon bet. It was about fifteen dollars. They then told me to sit still, and they went back to the other cars. They <. made a wholesale robbery of money, watches and jewelry." ji I ■fi 1 • I i WWWwSfsf^"J ;i ~ *. * v^?H|!r?¥B^S rif'^rM'ffi-iiim'lW^ ^-tWU-tvMiW v*.n»^n*g•>»■■*''j£ • M| tefas-

Few things fill a junior associate with more dread than a partner beginning a sentence with the following words: "There must be a case that holds…." Much of the time, there is no such case (especially when the issue concerns some annoying e-discovery dispute that no judge would ever want to write about).
But if a partner says to you, "There must be a case addressing whether an insurance company is liable for accidental death benefits when the decedent accidentally kills himself while engaged in masturbation that involves intentional self-electrocution" — well, now there's a case that's on all fours. With an electric cattle prod.

Very happy with the charcoal-color vest. Fit is good, and the choice of pockets is excellent for using at work: Left breast pocket includes pencil slot. I find vests good for working in a breezy office during winter--do not interfere with typing.

PEAR is a framework and distribution system for reusable PHP components.
Sounds good? Perhaps you might want to know about installing PEAR on your system or installing pear packages.
You can find help using PEAR packages in the online manual and the FAQ.
If you have been told by other PEAR developers to sign up for a PEAR website account, you can use this interface.
The PEAR installer version 1.9.5 has been released today.
The new version – three years after the last stable 1.9.4 and 2 weeks after the preview – is a bugfix only release. 13 bugs have been fixed. Among them are the following:
Our plan is to work on a new version 1.10 that is E_STRICT and E_DEPRECATED clean and ships a couple of new features.
I've just released a preview of the upcoming PEAR installer version 1.9.5: PEAR 1.9.5dev1.
Version 1.9.5 will be the first release of the PEAR installer since 3 years, and thus needs quite some testing before declaring it stable. Instead of using "RC1″, we opted for "dev1″ to keep the stability below alpha, so that upgrading normal packages in alpha/beta state do not automatically give you a potentially unstable PEAR version.
You can upgrade your existing PEAR version with the following command:
$ pear upgrade PEAR-1.9.5dev1
Pre-release versions of go-pear.phar and install-pear-nozlib.phar can be temporarily be found at
Please report any bugs you find on the PEAR bug tracker or on the pear-dev mailing list.
Since October 2011, 5 million lines of the PEAR codebase has shifted to github.
Hand in hand with this shift has been the tireless work of Daniel C – someone who brazenly said "I will fix the failing packages!" in the tail end of last year.
Coupling his efforts with a call to arms, we've now seen an evaluation of the Known Good packages against PHP 5.4, and massive input by the community. The net result is as follows:
I'd like to thank Daniel C for his efforts to date, as well as the contributors who may have previously lurked or found themselves distracted by other concerns.
Dec/Jan has been a great and vigorous period for the project – I heartily look forward to a great 2012.
You can find help and support on our mailing lists, and IRC channel
Our developers are also on LinkedIn, Ohloh, Twitter, Identi.ca or Facebook, as well as the wiki.

So a while back i was at this party and i was the first girl to arrive and there were like 20 guys already there, we were all siting around, having a beer and whatnot when the dj arrived. So all the guys went out the front of the house to help set up the dj gear and it was just me sitting there alone in the backyard for like 5 minuets. I stood up to go follow them bc i was getting really bored when i realized something, my period had gone through my white pants and stained the while chair, i was humiliated, i had no idea what to do, i could hear the guys were coming back and i had to do something quick, time was running out. So i grabbed the chair, ran like 10 meters and threw it over the fence into the neighboring yard, i quickly walked back and tied my jacket around my waist. The guys soon returned and didn't suspect a thing, i am amazing.
shoutout to 90's kids for being proudest of their decade for no reason

Nice for the Samsung II or III. It is compact and very nice to carry a few things as well as your phone.
GEARONIC Flip Wallet Leather Case Cover for Samsung Galaxy S3/SIII are great, got it for my sister and she love it. Thanks O.
The case is functional. Nothing exceptionally fancy. It is practical; the stitching showed a bit more than it should have but overally, it appears sturdy enough to last for a while and fulfill the function for which it was purchased.
Looks nice, easy and lightweight to use... It makes using my smartphone a lot easier.
i couldn't believe how sleek and durable the case was for the price. i intend to buy other colors.
Product is as described. Cannot beat the price! I would recommend to others.

Great filters By Earl T. on 10/12/2014Earl T. would recommend this product to a friendI use these and only these filters in my BRS 5 stage RODI unit. It is the best price on the internet, you know you are getting what is made for your filtration system.
great for replacing my rodi filters By Kevin on 8/23/2014Kevin would recommend this product to a friendit came with perfect instructions very simple to switch out filters but
i'm giving this filter replacement 4 stars because i believe it should come with the di resin sponges. if you read this i suggest you buy the replacement di sponges or maybe bulk reef should add them to this package.
Simple & Fast By Nicholas on 5/30/2014Nicholas would recommend this product to a friendMy system was not used for a long time and I thought it would be best to change everything out. BRS has made it really easy to buy these rather than searching the web for each part separately. Really simple and ready to use. Videos from the site helped a lot.
Great Package! By Stephane on 5/27/2014Stephane would recommend this product to a friendeverything is packages to make it easy. as a new reefer all i had to do is look up this kit and order. After, the install was done because BRS labels the filters. i just matched the labels to the canisters.
I can say that you can see the quality in these filters, they are not built cheap.... proof is when my meter still shows no TDS.
Great Filters / Great Buy By Jeff on 5/10/2014Jeff would recommend this product to a friendYes these are Great filters at a Great price but no matter what you order or no matter how much it weighs the palin old ground delivery cost a fortune and Always takes a week and a half to two weeks to get to Florida. It seems that those whos orders are under $175.00 are paying for the free shipping of the others.
Saying that...I have ordered supplies from these people for several years now, they have good quality stuff, just wait till you need $175.00 worth and don't be in a hurry.
Good Filters By John on 4/1/2014John would recommend this product to a friendMine last quite some time. Its time for a refill now. Will be going with the same parts. Fast shipping.
Great value By Scott on 3/26/2014Scott would recommend this product to a friendVery easy to replace. I ordered this kit when I noticed my TDS #s starting to climb. Watched the quick video on packing the Di resin and started the task of replacing the filters. In all, I bet it took no longer than 10 min start to finish. Much cheaper to order this kit than trying to get rid of algae from high TDS. Plan on ordering a kit with every BRS order I place.
A+ By Zebberdee on 3/8/2014Zebberdee would recommend this product to a friendI am a customer for a year now and find these guys to be on the ball! Great job.
Easy By Kav on 3/3/2014Kav would recommend this product to a friendAll in one kit. Just click order and its over. Nothing to think about afterwards. Everything you need is included, you COULD order each part from multiple places and save a FEW bucks but this way is much easier!
Perfect for me By David on 2/15/2014David would recommend this product to a friendI bought the 5 stage BRS RO/DI a couple years ago. Its been perfect and only takes about 2 min to change out the filters. I cant think of a single reefer buddy that doesn't have one from BRS.

In Kannapolis, a kaleidoscope of culture takes to the street
KANNAPOLIS — Belly dancers swiveled their hips and balanced swords on their arms.
Painters created cloudscapes and fantasy figures.
Kids performed a song from their school play.
And vendors sold everything from handcrafted wooden toys to custom-crafted jewelry.
All of this within the space of three city blocks.
That was the scene Saturday at the inaugural Kaleidoscope Cultural Arts Festival, held on the sidewalks of downtown Kannapolis.
The event was presented by Modern Film Fest, sponsored by the city of Kannapolis and the N.C. Research Campus.
Liz Gray, a Cabarrus resident and visual artist, was one of the organizers.
She said the event was "just a place for artists in our area to get together," with a chance for the community to experience culture.
Aside from the belly dancers and musicians of various kinds, there were costumed characters from the Carolina Renaissance Festival, a juggler and other performers.
"The most interesting thing for me is just seeing the diverse culture in our area," Gray said. Many of the artists and vendors live or work in Cabarrus County, she said.
All ages were represented. Students from Weddington Hills Elementary School, in Concord, performed music from their production of "Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory."
And visual art from A.L. Brown High School students was also on display.
Meghan Shapley, a junior at A.L. Brown High, said she thought the event was a great idea to bring the community together.
Shapley is an Honors Art student in Brenda Hardin's class. At the festival, she gave a live demonstration of acrylic painting.
"I hear people say art is a useless profession, but it isn't. If you really want to make it work it will work," Shapley said.
Fellow student Anthony Lotito, a sophomore at A.L. Brown, said art can bring people together – "artists, dancers, whoever. Not just artistically, but humanly."
"I don't know how to explain it," Lotito said, smiling, as passers-by stopped to admire paintings and drawings.
Brent Offenberger, owner of Brently's Woodcrafts, started making intricate wooden toys about 25 years ago, when the wooden jewelry box he was trying to make turned out to look like a box truck.
Today, he's made wooden snow plows, bulldozers, trucks, even a bulldozer with real moving parts.
Some pieces take as much as 100 hours, sometimes more, to craft, Offenburger said.
For him, the festival was a chance to sell his wares, and also to get feedback from the public.
Charles Crawford, independent graphic artist originally from Lancaster, S.C., now lives and works in Cabarrus County.
"I'm more of a street artist, I like bright colors," Crawford said, standing by a display of his works.
Being at the event had brought "a wonderful response, a lot of positive vibes," Crawford said.
"Art is a big part of life, you know," Crawford said. "There are so many different styles. Each individual person adds something to the community."
Crawford himself is also a musician, and had CDs as well as art prints on display at his table.
As for the event, Crawford said, "the more it goes, the streets are going to be full."
Next to him, John Hairston painted a fantasy scene inspired by sci-fi and comic book artist Frank Frazetta.
He described it as "a fantasy snowscape," even as he added paint to change and morph the look of his character.
The art he loves, Hairston said, is "art that makes my inner fifth-grader happy."
And live painting, as at Saturday's festival, is "something that I've always done," he said.
Hairston said Gray was the reason he came to the event, and that he had also been able to meet other artists whom he'd heard about but not worked with in person.
For Justin Christenbery, a Cornelius-based painter, what was happening in Kannapolis is similar to what's happening in his town.
Christenbery said he works with Bella Love, an organization "working to bridge the gap between local artists, businesses, musicians and the town of Cornelius."
"It seems like arts are on the rise," Christenbery said.
And events like Kaleidoscope are a chance to talk about art and show examples of what artists can do, "especially at a time when the arts are bring cut in schools," he said.
"My belief is that we are creative beings more than anything else," he said. "I love encouraging people."
Michael Knox, of Modern Film Fest, said there will be a Kaleidoscope Cultural Arts Festival in downtown Kannapolis on the last Saturday of each month, through August.
The next festival will be held on Saturday, May 25.
A finale show is also planned for the first weekend of October, to coincide with Modern Film Fest.
Knox said he enjoys the culture of downtown Asheville's arts community and wanted to bring something similar to Kannapolis.
With 45 vendors and artists, and a steady crowd downtown Saturday despite gray skies, "I'm pretty happy with what we've got going on," Knox said.

Testing and TSI
What is TSI?

Current South Plains College TSI Policy
Do I have to test?
At South Plains College all students must test unless they are exempt or are enrolling in a TSI-waived certificate. Check our list of exemptions to see if you meet the requirements. Exemptions must be processed and on file in the admissions office for the testing requirement to be waived.
What test do I have to take for TSI placement?
Before you take the TSI Assessment, you must participate in a Pre-Assessment Activity. The college or university at which you take your test is required
to provide the Pre-Assessment Activity as well as document your participation, so it is very important that you complete this activity before you take the
test. South Plains College has provided this Pre Assessment Activity for you. You can click on the link below.
Also, you will not be allowed to take the TSI Assessment until you have completed this activity. The activity includes the following:
• An explanation of the importance of the TSI Assessment;
• Practice test questions and feedback;
• An explanation of all your developmental education options, if you don't meet the
minimum passing standard; and
• Information on campus and community resources that will help you succeed as a
college student.
At South Plains College, you will be required to provide a hard copy of the Certificate of Completion on the day of the test. Failure to do so will result in you being denied admission to the test.
The Pre Assessment Activity can be taken by clicking on the link below.
What other tests are offered?
The testing centers offer a variety of tests, and can provide proctoring for distance education tests. Exams for class credit by exam, certification tests, program admission tests, and more can be taken.
You must sign up for a test at least 3 business days prior to a selected test date in person or online.
As of January 1, 2011 - Personal or Business checks will no longer be accepted as a form of payment for testing fees. Cash or Credit Card Only.
(Checks issued by a local School District will still be accepted at this time).
Where can I test?
Levelland Testing Center - Testing Schedule
Reese Testing Center - Testing Schedule
ATC Testing Center - Testing Schedule
Plainview Testing Center - Testing Schedule
I have tested, what do the scores mean and what do I do now?
Your scores will be used to place you in college-level courses, or in courses that will help you strengthen your academic skills so that you can be successful.
