THE HIGH SCHOOL.

Tho Workings Of the Tuition Plan
The Revenue Thercfr0m Paying
the Expenses Of the school.
The plan of charging a tuition fee In the
High School has been in operation now for
nearly three months and has been found to
work much better than even its most ar.
dent advocates anticipated. Pupils Of resi-
dents are charged $40 and those Of non res
idents $40 per year. The real and only
expense attendant upon the running Of the
High School il the salary Of Prof. Grant,
its principal, amounting to $3.50 yearly,
and this the tuition fees paid in will meet.
Some four or five years ago Grade l was
merged into the High School, 30 that at
the present time it contests OF Grade /, the
iuninr, middle and senior classes. Grade !
would require the services OF two teachers,
even if the other classes of the High School
were to be abolished, and if this branch
were TO be dispensed with Grade l would
be reverted to the common school, Prof.
Grant being the only one TO retire. The
school levy for the last year was just suf-
fcient to run the schools, exclusive of the
High School-that il, Prof. Grants salary
and this tuition fee meets that; conse-
quen;ly, ii the present tuition fee were dis
pensed with, the High School, that Is, the
Junior, middle and senior classes, would be
forced to go" Up to the present time
there has been no difficulty in collecting
the tuition fee, so that this branch is not
kept up BY general taxation, but by those
who wish to avail themselves OF the advan-
tages furnished by it. OF course, where
parents were too poor to pay the fee, the
pupil was not debarred from attending on
that account. The same expense for jani-
tor, fuel, and other necessities would have
to be met even if the High School we're not
in existence

outlined in his former lecture, Mr.. Coleman
first considered the elements in the suns at.

given. The photosphere, or bright face of
the sun; the chromosphere. or the stratum
Of heated hydrogen gas above the photo

in vapor; and the prominences, consisting

character indicated The immense cyclone
storms seen in the suns atmosphere next
engaged the lecturers attention; and the
means by which il can be ascertained, by
spectrum analysis, of the direction and
rste OF speed Of the burning hydrogen, dur
ing the storms, were concisely explained.
The mystery enveloping the sums corona
was now taken up, and the light thrown
thereupou by spectrum analysis fully set
forth, including the researches of astro-
nomers during the 1873 eclipse; the pro-
bable connection between the long coronal
streamers and the zodiocal light being hint
ed at. After sketch Of the nsture of the

those Of variable and temporary stars. The
discovery of gaseous nebui by the spectros-

upon; the lecturer concluding with an out
