Hebrew Educational Society Institute.


The fifth annual examination of the He
brew Educational Society Institute com
menced yesterday at their schOOlrOOms on
Calliope street, between st. Charles and
Prytania streets.
The schoolroom, which is undoubtedly
one of the finest in the city, is a substantial
twO-story brick building, with numerous
and large windows which, when open, adj
NIT plentiful supply of fresh air, making
the different rooms cool, comfortable and
thoroughly ventilated, always necessary,
particularly in a schoOlhouse.
The number of scholars pursuing their
studies here at present is 1873, and more
intelligent assembly of children it is impos-
sible to witness, whose happiness and pro-
gress appear to be the sole aim and ambi-
ton of the amiable rector and the teachers
The faculty consists of the following
named ladies and gentlemen: Professor
Alexander Dimitry, rector; Mrs. Alice
Dalsheimer, principal of the first female de-
partment; DR.. Henry Baar, professor of
Hebrew and German; Mr.. NJ AlerinO, as
sistant professor of Hebrew and Gennan;
Miss Ada Jacobs, first intermediate depart
ment; Mrs. Yeiser, second intermediate de-
paFUmenI; MISS y. STUART primary depart
ment; Mr.. B. st. Auge, professor of French.
Yesterday the large apartment where the
examinations were taking place was beau
tifully and tastefully decorated with ever
green's and flowers, interspersed with mot
toes, such as: GOD bless our school,"
"Mmd and manners make the gentleman"
"WOmanhOOd's glOry-modesty and truth"
The scholars in the primary department,
under the charge of Miss S. Stuart, went
through their exercises in reading, spelling,
grammar and arithmetic in a most credita-
BILE manner. In grammar and arithmetic
the examinations were perfectly oral and
very intellectual, the questions being an
swered quickly and with wonderful cor
rectness for children so young.
The first intermediate department, under
the charge of MISS Jacobs, in higher
branches of study, as well as the class ex-
amined by Mrs. Yeiser in American history,
with geographical illustrations on the map,
went through their examinations in an
admirable manner. The whole, in fact,
showing what assiduity and care these
ladies must have taken to train their youth
full minds.
The exercises of the day we're relieved by
recitations, solos and choruses by the
scholars, under the leadership of Professor
August Davis, and formed an interesting
feature to the proceedings.
The exercises will be continued to-day,
tomorrow and Thursday.

When the Prince Of Wales was sick, it
was reported that his morals would surely
mend with his body. When be got well he
did not justify the expectations Of his
friends In Paris, Tribune correspondent
tells Us, he rushed about as if only anxious
to find where were the most indecent plays.
No wonder the Parisians thought accounts
of his illness had been exaggerated, since
he was able, after long journey by rail, to
fly to a low theatre, without resting, to see
a piece which shocks the morality of Paris.

The Internal Revenue Bureau has de-
oided that no additional stamps will be
required on smoking tobacco which has
already paid tax after July l. The law has
not been changed in respect to the manner
in which smoking tobacco shall be put up.
No tax accrues on tobacco until removed
from the factory. Consequently, though
manufacturers stamp their tobacco between
now and July 1, and do not remove it, they
viii be obliged TO restamp it with the twenty
cent stamp after the first of July.

There were found in one package of cur

soon as the new one Is ready.
