German-American School Picnic.

1t is known to many that Mr.. Roessler,
the excellent teacher of the German
American school, kept in Palace Row, is
not overburdened with this worlds goods,
and it is proposed by his friends and pa
irons to hold picnic next Sunday, for his
benefit. The school now numbers about
10 pupils, and gives such general satisfac-
ton that his friends want to give him a
benefit, The procession will start from
the school room at about o'clock, Sunday
afternoon, and march to the grounds of the
Rock Island Shooting Society, that organ
ization having kindly donated the use of
its park. There will be music, singing,
and exercises for recreation for the chill
dren. Refre eshments can be had on the
ground-cofee, soda, lemonade, ice creams,
strawberries, etc., ETC., as well as the
more substantial food. All are invited.

Ice What Dealer Has to Say
Respecting the Trade--The vari-
ous ElaVors.

There is one point, said the man,
that whenever any person comes into my
saloon and looks stranger-fike, and parti-
cularly if they give any evidence of being
unused to city life, they invariably ask
for vanilla cream. I don't know why it
is, other than the fact that vanilla was
about the first favor used in ice cream.
In olden times it was supposed that ice
cream might produce hysteria, and as
vanilla was administered incidentally for
that, they used it as a suitable flavor to
counteract any evil effects that cream
might have. Those were the days when
doctors were just beginning to allow their
fever patients to have ice and drink cold
water. The consequence was that vanilla
ice cream thus became widely known, and
it is one of the best. By some it is called
'vanil, by others miller and there are
those also who ask for 'banilla.' Of course
these mistakes are laughable, but then We
never treat unknowing people in any un
gentlemanly or unladylike way. 1t is moi
our business to make fun of others, who
in all probability, know infinitely NOR,
than we do in their business at home"
/ wv hat sort OF Ice cream do ladies', ash
for?" continued the reporter.
Elderly ladies take lemon, middle aget
like chocolate, young ladies take straw
berry, and the quite pert misses ask TO
orange, peach, and mixed flavor. 1t ha
become quite fashionable to call for mixec
creams. During the strawberry season VI
sell berries and ice cream, or berries an'
ordinary cream with sugar. Ice cream
and berries form the principal demand
nowadays. There is great deal in ap
pearance, and plate heaped high witt
berries and cream looks aristocratic am
! still doesn't cost much. Then again, it i
very palatable, and is much more credit
able than spending that money for some
thing that does not do any person an
good, but rather harm. Ice cream is re
freshing and nourishing, and can be cate
in perfect safety by everybody"

Our Colored Cadet.
From the N Y Tim

FROM the N. \. Times, 29th.
The only colored cadet now at the Point
is ''FGpper," of the third class, and all con-
cede he is getting along finely, though
there are those who believe he will never
graduate. They say no colored cadet will
be allowed to graduate there; that he may
get as far as the first class, but there he
will be Slaughtered ~ do not believe
there are any grounds for such an opinion
The officers are gentlemen. and so are the
professors. They believe merit should be
rewarded wherever found, and nearly all
Of them speak we'll of ''Flipper. He has a
light, cofee-colored complexion, and minds
his own business, and he does not intrude
his company upon other cadets. He
studies hard, land his position of forty six in
his class of eighty-fve members proves
what metal he is made of. There are
many old heads here who believe he will
graduate with honor. He is from Georgia.
James Smith, the colored cadet from
South Carolina, about whom there was so
much talk, and who was sent home for in
competency, was dull scholar, and al
though he was given three chances to re-
trive himself where other cadets get only
two, he failed each time. His particular
weakness was chemistry.
