The Exhibitions given by the High
School on Tuesday and Wednesday evening
last, were largely attended, the hall being lit
orally crowded on both evenings. The recita-
tons and dialogues were well rendered, and
were well received by the audience. The
performers all deserve credit for the manner
in which their parts were performed, and one
thing was especially noteworthy, each had the
part assigned well learned, so that but very
little prompting was necessary. The drama
of Theresa, which was rendered on both
evenings, was pretty heavy piece to be at
tempted, but was very creditably performed.
Altogether the exhibitions reflected credit
alike upon the superintendent and his pupils.
Lectures of Prof Ebell.-The lectures
on Natural Science, by Prof. Ebell, at High
School Hall, on Thursday, Friday and Satur-
day evenings of last week, were attended by
fair audiences, except on the last evening,
when the severe storm prevented many from
going out. Prof. Ebell is a finished scholar in
the science, and very rapid talker, but in the
first lecture, particularly, he travelled over
too large an area to allow him to do justice to
his subjects or himself. The last lecture was
exceedingly interesting and was considered
the best of the three. He delivered three lee
lures before the schools, which were very int
eresting and instructive. We understand
that the Professor starts for Europe in about
two weeks.
Spring Fashions.-It is truly amusing
to notice the variety which the prospectus of
spring fashions presents. Both males and fe-
males are to be the victims of tortuous changes
The Dolly Warden cambrics, for spring dresses
are all the rage, but for hats the Dolly Warden
will be the favorite. For sashes the Dolly
Warden pattern will be adopted as something
different from other articles of dess. Dolly
Warden slippers are spoken of as beauties,
/ while instead of the balmoral stocking, the
/ Dolly Warden will be worn. For gents the
Dolly Warden hat is delared to be irresistible,
but for suits only Dolly Warden cloths will be
worn. For the sake of contrast, the Dolly
Warden neck tie will be universally worn,
while in collars the Dolly Warden style is pi-
ously advised. Other garments, both, in
ladies' and gents dress, will be simply Dolly
Warden. Poor Dolly!

Model Ofice.-If you wish to see a COM
plete model of an Office home, handsomely fur
nished, cheerful, inviting, aud Just as neat as
wax work, take peep into the telegraph Of
fee of the L. S. & NJ. S. R. R., at the depot in
this city. Miss Mary Kidney, the day Oper-
ator has held that position for the past two
years, and we know whereof we speak when
we say that the company have no desire to in
stall successor in her place. The faultlesE
accuracy with which the business of the Office
has been conducted, and the obliging disposi.
ton at all times of Miss Kidney, did not fail
of being appreciated by the employees of the
road, and it seems they desired to manifest
this feeling in some tangible way, for on last
Sunday morning on going to the Office, she
found the floor covered with an elegant Brus-
sells carpet of very handsome pattern. The
svrprise was most complete to Miss Kidney, as
she had not the slightest intimation of such a
present. The expense of the carpet was about
seventy-ive dollars and was presented to hel
by the employees of the running department
of the Toledo division of the road. She al
ready has a number of handsome pictures, and
other ornaments of neat fashion, for the walls
plants for the window, and such evidences Of
cultivated taste as give an air Of refinement
and attractiveness to a room. The Office il
now far superior to any between Chicago and
Buffalo, and is presided over by lady who i:
in all respects worthy of such pleasant Office
home.
