schools in the ward, and, under the charge
of o competent instructor, bids fair to rival
the other and larger institutions in excel
lence. The singing in the exhibition exer-
cises was particularly fine, the principal
playing the accompaniment with touch
which showed good musical development.
The song Away, the morning freshly
breaking" by the school, was probably the
best school singing in the city. The build
ing is not adapted for school, being poorly
Illuminated, but the teachers, who have the
confidence of all the pupils, make up for
very material defects in the other requi-
sites to good school.

This is one of the finest schools in the
city, and located In model building. Dis
cipline, and the usual accompaniments,
good breeding and decorum, are, of course,

house is suggestive OF refining tendencies.
Among the visitors who took deep inter
est in the exercises were Chief O'COnner,
Captain Badger, p B. S. Pinchback, of the
school directors The exercises conducted
by the accomplished principal, who is one
of the regulars, were pretty and agreeably
interspersed with music.
Tee School Ma'am" dialogue excited
great deal OF merriment from the comlcal
spirit infused into the first part, while the
moral of the same was duly appreciated.
The extracts from the paper run" in the
school were exceedingly entertaining, the
Local Intelligence" column having been
got up in the usual style of those reports.
The institution has been organized but
week since the food, and of course the in
terruptions in the established order of
studies occasioned considerable confusion.
Ex-Governor Hahn read the roll of honor,
which brought out futter of gratifed
pride. The song of the ''Mocking Bird" was
well timed and skillfully accompanied on
the piano. A glance at the schedules show
the examination to be satisfactory.
