ANOTHER ONE ON ST.. CHARLES STREET
Several nights ago strained sounds. in limit
ed imitation of bad music, were heard from
the depths of No. 81 St. Charles street, and
as the notes were somewhat unusual, the
reporter dropped in like chunk of lead.
There was a base drum, or base something.
and man behind it, grinding out doleful
sound. He was tianked by squeaking fid-
dler, whs seemed to have spite against
the strings. The atmosphere smelled of
secondhand tobacco and stale beer. A
female looking woman asked If beer was
wanted. Not a drop. She turned up her
pretty nose, and Immediately sought the
company of blear-eyed man, who was very
familiar with her. In fact, it is poor edi-
ton of Socha's Crystal Palace.
Yesterday all the people doing business
on St. Charles street. between Gravier and
Perdido, signed petition to have the place
dried up, and gaze the paper to Mayor
Wilt. 1t is expected that that official will
attend to the subject to-day, and if there is
any power in the complaint he will certain
ly attend to it.
The frowsy waiter girls, formerly in wor: 0
places, behaved themselves toierably well;
but how long will they be on their good
conduct
The signers of the petition will make
their best efforts to have the place closed.

Business is steadily improving az this
theatre, and considering the scarcity of
ready money a good sized audience assem-
bled there last evening to witness the per-
Torrance given By the Duprez s. Benedict
minstrels. They gave one Of their best en-
tertainments. To hear the ballad singing
of Mr.. Frank Dumont and Mr.. Thomas B.
gentleman sang I'VE Sat by the River
with fine effect. The merry sayings
of the end men are all new, ald free from
coarse expressions, too frequently INDUCED
in by such performers, and we are pleased
to be able to say that refined ladies can sit
this party without hearing word to offend.
Academy 81 Music.
The attendance was not so large az the
Academy last night as it should have been,
in view of the merits OF "Uncie Toms
Cabin" as drama and the superior manner
in which it has been put upon the stage.
To praise the performers at this time would
only cause us to reiterate what has already
been said. Little Minnie Madden con-
tinues to shine as Era and bring tears with
her songs and child speeches, while Miss
Alice Harrison makes fun for all. ilIustrat-
ing the oddities of lopsy. The piece must
give way on Monday night for other attrac.

BROKEN OUT AGAIN.-The Italian war
has broken out once more in New Orleans.
Genio Attilia, wEo was several days ago
nearly murdered at the corner of Rampant
and Toulouse streets, will recover, but up
to this time fatty refuses to make any dis
closures concerning his assassin. o. Sa-
racano, arrested for the crime, was re-
leased on $4,000, in proper form, on the
nineteenth instant. That night, when he
was standing at the corner of st. Peter and
Rampant streets, two men attacked and
wounded him severely with knife. He
was sent to the Charity Hospital. but, like
his victim, refused to give any information
about his assailants. Sergeant McManus.
under Captain McCann, has made strenu.
GUS efforts to unravel the affair and arrest
the culprits, but has met with little success,
as the men who know anything about it
will rot talk. Even if the assasslns were
captured, the wounded man would not tes-
tify against them, though ne were to be sc.
verely punished.

CLAIBORNE PUBLIC SCHOoL.-A visit to
this institution, corner of Claiborne and st.
Peter streets, was a pleasant one. The
schoOl is second grade, bat the several
teachers are making extraordinary efforts
to raise the standard, but they have several
severe obstacles to contend with. Mr.. X. s.
Stewart, the principal although a young
man, has all the elements necessary TO make
success against adversely. The general at
tendance is only tOlerable, the average be-
ing $685. most OF the pupils being bright,
tidy and quite intelligent. Mr. Stewart has
three scholars in his room, and he thinks he
can tit them for the High School next De-
cember. His lads are all bright, neatly at
tired and somewhat ambitious. This school
has generally tOlerable attendance, but
when the boys are old enough to enter the
principals room, they are taken away by
force of circumstances, entering on such du-
ties in life as require manual labor for FAM
lily and individual sustenance. Thebuilding
is q tolerably fair one, having abundance OF
Light and excellent ventilatiOn but the fur
niture is not up to the standard. Two of
the roons are passably we'll fitted up to ac-
commodate the children, and the yard is
good enough in dry weather, but portion
would be much better il paved.
Mr.. Stewart will, at his first opportunity,
visit parents and guardians in his bailiwick,
and explain to them the advantages chill
dren have in the Claiborne School, as not
few people in that section appear to enter
tain prejudice against the institution. 1t
matters not how lowly or how presumptu-
GUS the patrons are lit patrons they may be
called, all will be treated kindly and
equally sharing all the advantages of
free school education. The teachers are
graduates OF this system. and they pride
themselves on the fact This alone should
induce parents to keep their children in
constant attendance.
The principal is Mr.. r. s. Stewart. as
sisted by Mrs. E. Prados, Misses j. Giroux.
