of the two previous witnesses. He further
testified that he saw Conway. at the board,

or two after he was taken from the bark

sacrament of the church. He was afterwsrd

SECOND NIGHT OF THE ST. PETER SCHOOL
ExH1BrT1oN.-Laste evening was gala night
| with the teachers, scholars, and friends of
st. Peter school on Marigny street. Being
the close of the exhibition every exertion
was made by the management to make it a
complete success, and their efforts were
rewarded far beyond their most sanguine
expectations. Quite in contrast with the
first night everything seemed to work with
the precision of clockwork. The house
was uncomfortably crowded night before
last and it was found impossible to keep
the audience back, but last night the aisles
were kept clear, curtains were suspended
across the back part of the room occupied
by the stage, and none were allowed behind
the scenes except those having business
there. Mr.. JOvian, the Principal, and Mr..
Graham, First Assistant, seemed to be every
where, and done all in their power to rem.
der every one comfortable. In this connec.
ton this reporter can not tail to mention
the superiority of and ladylike bearing of
Miss r. Mcdonald, Principal of the girls,
and Miss Mary Anderson, First Assistant.

Feeling that by mentioning names he
could not do justice without extending this
notice to an indefinite length, this reporter
trusts he will be excused by simply stating
that all of those connected with the exer-
cises were equally meritoTious of applause,
