The Public School Exhibition.

The Opera House has hardly ever
been filled to quite the same extent rs
il was OH last Friday night to witness
the public schools exhibition. Near
seven hundred persons occupied the
main floor and gallery, while scores
were refused admittance at the door.
This unusual interest is largely lac
countable TO the fact that the parents
and friends Of the pupils who were To
participate in the exercises were drawn
hither from laudable motives and a
justifiable pride. Others were induced
by a feeling akin to love for such
things, and from a spirit of curiosity,
perhaps.
The exercises were convincing on
the point that the pupils of all depart
ments had received careful and most
thorough training for the especial hu-
ties of the occasion, as well rs during
the long months Of the school year.
There was an ease and grace, in the
delivery, that spoke 10 the credit
of each instructor, rs it did to the eff
cheney of the Salina public schools.
To say that one pupil did well is to
assert what In true Of all. Their de-
meanor on the stage exhibited an alb
sence of any seeming afiectation or
distrust, but they apparently entered
upon the duties imposed upon them
with the spirit of emulation and con-
fldence. With the single exception,
may be, of the length Of some of the
declarations, there was nothing to
mar the evenings entertainment, to
our mind, of course excepting the heat
of the hall, resulting mainly from the
crowded condition of the audience.
Floral tributes tom friends and others
were cast at the feet of each youthful
speaker at the conclusion of each dec
lamation or recitation, and there were
frequent bursts Of applause by clap
ping of hands and laughter at embryo
eloquence or some sportive mimicry.
The music consisted of singing of
classes of scholars and organ accom-
paniment. This part of the programme
indispensable oratorical exercises and
was rendered with an excellent effect.
The songs were appropriate ones. and
were happily received by the audi
ence. The exhibition of Friday even
ing was momentous i'm the history Of
our city. 1t is the hsrbinger of Use
fulness Of the boys and girls who will
shortly be the men and women who
are to lead and take part in our bust
ness and social circles.

THE OYSTER.

The oyster is a fortunate creature if it be for
tunate to be much mentioned in history. People
who have swallowed an enormous number of
oysters figure in anecdote, and are considered TO
have done something mertorious The Roman
who first formed oyster beds, which he did at
Baiie, is known to have been named Sergious
Orata, who had the happiness to live in the time
of Augustus, and who is known to have made a
great deal of money by the exercise of his inge-
nuity To-day u is mentioned in the encyclO-
pPdias that Apicus, contemporary OF IraJan
was the first who taught the world how to pickle
oysters. His fame rests upon that fact. There
was another Apicus distinguished for his love of
Holsters; there was another who set up a school
of cooks; but the oyster-pickling Apicus has
distinct fame, and survives freshly in classical
dictionaries. When George l came to England
from Hanover, the royal cooks could not please
the royal palate in the matter of oysters until it
was discovered that his majesty liked them stale,
as he had always been in the habit of eating them.
When Mr. Thaclleray came first to Boston, certain
of his admirers asked him to supper. There were
among other deiicacieS gigantic oysters. The
novelist could not comprehend that he was to
swallow one of these in an undivided state, but
being shown the way, and having accomplished
the feat, he observed that he felt ''as if he had
swallowed a baby"

ANOTHER WONDER.

Wonders will never c "a. By aid of the
dioscope, an ingenious instrument brought for
the first time to public notice during the Partisan
Electrical Congress, patrons of the drama who
are reluctant to leave their comfortable firesides
and temporarily revolutionize all their domestic
arrangements in order to attend theatrical per-
formanceS IN loco, will henceforth be enabled to
see as well as hear their favorite operate and
histrionc artists without stirring yard from
home The apparatus consists of a small OBJ
iective" lens, fixed up in a position command
inc the stage of no matter what theatre, and con-
nected with an electric wire with diminutive
white glass plate, which may be framed and set
in the panel OF a private drawing room, however
distant from the playhouse in question. Total
darkness having been obtained in the room fur
nished with a dioscope, perfect picture of the
stage its scenery, actors, &c, faithful in color
and absolutely reproducing the whole perform
ance, will become visible upon the surface OF the
glass plate. Supplemented by telephone COM
municating with the theatre the dioscope Will
therefore enable its owner to spend his evening
at the opera in dressing-gown and slippers, if
such be his ideal Of comfort, seated in an easy
chair, within hail of his iai de pOute ct 6onne de
mutt" To those, and their name is legion who
detest premature dinner, hurried dressing and
a couple of hours cabling there and back" as
the hitherto inevitable cOncomtants of a visit to
the play the condition of things rendered feasible
by the invention of the dioscope will present
itself as truly blssful addition to the pleasure
resources-LOndon Daily Telegraph

TO PRESERVE ORDER.

Last month there were stationed in England
and the Channel Islands eleven regiments of cav
airy forty battalions of infantry, eleven bat
teries Of royal horse artillery, sixtyeight bat
teres of field and garrison artillery, and twenty
two companies of royal engineers. In Scotland
the total establishment is represented by only
one regiment of cavalry, two battalons of nfan-
try, as many batteries of artillery, and a company
of royal engineers; while it is still deemed nee
essary to maintain in Ireland six regiments of
cavalry, twenty-five battalions of infantry three
batteries of royal horse artillery, eight batteries
of field and garrison artillery, and three compa-
MES of royal engineers, or about 10000 men.

LAMENT OF THE STATESMAN.

We should think after man had been Secre-

occasionally dumped fifty millions of dollars
into Wall street to relieve the money market, and
had called in twenty millions skies at one time,
and bought two millions of bonds every week. and
disbursed eleven millions one week and eight
cen millions the next, we should think it would
hurt him awfully to go back into his law Office

are bothering their brains to know how they came
there. Very simple. We have fed something less
than million worms to fishes ourselves. All
that is necessary is to put worm OH hook, drop
it into the water, and the fishes will eat it off
