SILVER CITY SCHOOLS.


The question OF, tax or no tax be-
ing discussed on our streets, has
brought ~ another, which properly
has no place in tho discussion. Some
say that the schinls are run too 'ex-
pensively; that 1.-TWO steachcrs are
enough for the number of scholars
and the amount of work to be done.
Let uss sec. whether this is SO, or
whether it is aslrpt thrown at random
by some one ignorant Of the schaol
and its government, with ) the hope
that IT might hit somebody. Ia my
department I have 40 scholars. The
studies pursued are philosophy,
arithmetic, history, algebra, geogra-
ply, grammar, reading, spelling,
writing, and physiology. To" hear
all Of these requires IS classes. where
as M high school should ever have
more than s recitatiops per day, To
get through this work, ! am Obliged
to limit the writing 20 Is or 30 min
utes, to alternate hist Try with read
ing, 10 hear two algebra classes At
the same time, aud to hear the p,ysi.
ology recitation after schooling, been
dismissed.
Mrs. Hornick has SO scholars, and
teaches arithmetic, geography, read
ing, spelling and writing. To &C
commodxts all3 thu sch0Iars 10 her
department re4u res 10 recitatians
per day, which 10 enough Tor any
intermediate department, ..,.,f
Miss Plummer has 50 scholars, and
teaches reading, writing, spelling,
arithmetic and geography. To do
this, she has To hear Is classes. To
recspitulate, we have three teachers
who haye, in the aggregate, 137
scholars, and hear A rccitations
daily. -.....-... s...........-..
Cnuld two teachers do this workf
To accomplish this would require
each Teacher to have 90 scholars and
hear 90 recitations per day, thus al
lowing them to erpend less than "a
minutes on any Que recitation.
No man who knows anything
about school work, will SAY in the
face of these Fl yures that two teach
ers arssensugh Or siissr.City. o -
Before you debate on these sui,

amount Of work We d., aud if you
arc not satisfied With your investigs-
tions, vote "no tax" set your chill

down BY the weight OF the cargo; then
loaded IL with very choice assortment
Of fruits and, towing IL out towards the
bloekading squadron before daylight.
set il adrift. All day It fioated about,
but towards evening, fearing IL would
fall into neutral hands, boat was sent
out TO bring IL back.
The Loa, seeing the boat from the
shore making towards the neutral line,
caught sight Of the launch and turned
towards it. The Loa lowered two boats
aud brought the launch alongside, and
discharging commenced. As the
weight In the launch was diminished,
machinery in connection with the tor
pedo was set free, and In q moment
800 pounds Of dynamite were exploded.
The Loa was almost lifted out OF the
water and appeared enveloped in mass
of flame. which resolved itself into
dense clouds Of smoke. When this
cleared away, the vessel seemed not to
have suffered. but suddenly she went
down by the stern and disappeared.
The ships Of war and non-combatants
quickly lowered boats and picked up
about forty struggling in the water, Of
whom II is probable many viii die. At
least 100 men perished. The only OIL
GERS saved are, the second commander,
wounded. the doctor, and one engineer.
Every house in Callao' was shaken TO
its foundation by the explosion, and
every ship In the bay shlvered as by a
fearful earthquake.
