Officer Irving and T. J. Meyers re-
turned to this city last Monday after
an unsuccessful pursuit Of two horse
thieves. The property had been stolen
from Samuel Beers of Lake Co., I'll ,
and the thieves were supposed to have
taken the plumber into this county.
They succeeded in eluding the vigi-
lance of the officers and managed to
dispose Of the swag at Uederburg in
this State, but last Tuesday while re-
turning to Chicago they were appre-
hended by two detectives from Mil
waukee who, in company with Officer
Tetard of this city, conveyed them to
Milwaukee where they now are.

the better IN the roads, and as a con-

that, on account of insufficient notice,
bad roads or some other reason, the at
tendance was smaller than the aver
age. The Methodists are holding off
as yet, for some reason; probably
waiting for the next full moon, it be-

ry to have moonlight for such occa-
sions.

SEWING SCHOOLS.


WHAT is BEING DONE IN SYRACUSE,
NEW YORK.
Social science finds no more hopeful
field than the training Of children
from the poorer ranks Of life. In their
hands will rest many Of the great in
terests of our country in the years to
come. The education of such youth to
be useful and Industrious as well as in
telligent citizens, is q responsibility
which weighs on all alike. Without
settling the vexed question Of the ex-
tent to which industrial education
should be supported at public expense,
there remains no doubt that a ground
work Of useful knowledge, such as
each child has right to receive from
the State, may include some discipline
Of the hands as well as the head. With
this conviction our Board Of Ed
ucation takes this Winter an initiatory
step by opening the public school build
ings for free instruction in sewing,
under the direction of the Ladies' EN-
ployment Society. Whether another
season sewing may be made part Of
the school course, as has been done at
small expense elsewhere, will depend
upon the public sentiment which the
condition Of the case may awaken. No
far-seeing tax payers can doubt the re-
suit of training the children of our
pauper families in skillful use of
the needle. Ten years hence an inyes-
tigation Of the poor rates will show a
decrease quite sufficient to balance a
present investment on the part Of the
School Board.
The plan of work inaugurated this
Winter throws open one school house
in each ward for the free instruction
once a week Of any girls who apply.
The teaching is gratuitous. A lady
superintendent, appointed by the board,
is at the head of each school with q
band Of volunteers to assist. Between
two and three hundred children are
enrolled in one school, and the others
show a record also very encouraging.
The President, Mrs. j. L. Bagg, has
prepared q uniform code of rules for
superintendent and teachers, with a
system of graded instruction in sew
ing, knitting and cutting out garments.
A leading merchant provides all the
material used. Thus on a wide and
generous basis the work has begun and
only an increase Of the staff Of teach
ers is needed to secure efficiency in ev-
cry detail.

Told her Of our life at college,
With some slight embelIishings.
How do you" she asked, like Cambridge?'
"Oh," said, "the town will do;
Though, to tel the truth. its girls are
Rather homely, and so blue ~

When her lip began to curl,
And in coolest tones she answered,
