OUR SCHOOLS.
Tho South Omaha School-The
Teachers and Pupils.

Yesterday the South Omaha
School virtually closed for the sum-
mer, and to-day the pupils will
re-assemble to receive their certifi-
Gates of promotion. The examina-
tons passed of successfully, and re-
flected a great deal of credit both
upon teachers and pupils. The
work of the term has proved en-
tirely satisfactory, and it is no more
than fair to say that the South
Omaha School has been well man.
aged by Prof. Rose, the principal,
and his assistants.
The attendance during the term
has been very good, the average at
tendance being about as follows:
First grade, 20; I'd grade, IS; Sd
grade, As; 4th grade, 60; 9Th grade,
35; 9th grade, 20; total, 265. The
attendance has run up to over 800;
but since the warm weather ii
dropped off considerably.
THE TEACHERS.
Miss Hattie Sianard, the teach
er of the First Grade, came here
from Des Moines. She was former
Iy primary superintendent at Little
Rock, Arkansas, and is an able
teacher.
Miss J. NJ. Parker, of the Second
Grade, is a most excellent instruc-
tress. She has taught in Chicago,
and at one time was connected with
the Young Ladies' Seminary, OF
Springfield, Illinois. Her expert.
ence extends over u period of TWEEN
ty years.
Miss Fannie Appley has been
acting as a substitute teacher of the
Third Grade.
Miss J. NJ. McKoon, of the Fourth
Grade, is quite well and f~avorably
known i'm this city as all able teach
err, having been connected with
Omaha schools some four or five
years.
The Fifth and Sixth grades have
been under the instruction OF thu
Principal, Prof. Rose, and Mis-
Zoos, his assistant.
Miss Zoos was formerly principa
of the West School under the ole
administration. She is considered
the best teacher and d~isciplinariaI
in the city.
Prof. Rose is a very young man
and it was on that account tina
considerable objection was made Il
him when he came here from Hi
nois last September, as the successo
of Prof. Beals. By his industry ant
strict attention to duty he ha
proved himself capable in every re
spect to hold the position which n
now fills. He intends to take Q tril
to San Francisco for his health inn
mediately upon the closing of tn
schools.

Judge Poland writes that, in the part he
took towards modifying the jurisdiction of the
courts Of the District of Columbia at the last
session of Congress, he never thought of the
newspapers, nor can he see how they or their
conductors will be affected by the change.
The New Hampshire Democrats appear to
be running the Legislature of that State as
sort of private institution whose sole purpose
is to crafty their partisan wishes. Com
plants of their conduct are heard fiom all
quarters, and even their own party journals
shows signs of disaproval.- Tribune.
In North Carolina the Democrats are de-
termined that their leaders who took promi-
nent part in the raids, whppings and murders
of the Ku- Klux organization. many Of whom
were indicted in the United States Court,
shall be elevated to high Judicial positions, be-
cause of their services to the party as mem
bers of that organization. Therefore several
of these gentry have been nominated hy the
Democrats as candidates for Judges and So
licitors. BY so doing, they profess to set the
General Government at defiance, and enter
protest against the passage and enforcement
of the act of Congress known as the ku-klux
law.
