SCHOOL ACCOMMODATIONS.

The pressure for room which had been felt in several sub-districts prior to the past year was completely met by the enlargement of the Edwards street and Winchester schools and the completion of the Welch school, which was ready for occupancy on March 1st, 1884.
 The Edwards street house in its improved condition has eight well lighted rooms, and has ample accommodations in the way of stairs, cloak srooms, etc. More than one hundred children who have hitherto attended the Hamilton school, but who reside in the Skinner district, were transferred to Edwards street at the opening on the spring term, leaving only one room unoccupied, which will undoubtedly be filled the coming term. The four rooms added to the Winchester building are all occupied, and several of the lower rooms were overf1owing with little children during the past term, showing that steps will soon have to be taken looking to additional accommodations in that district. More rooms could possibly be rented in the Goffe street building, but that would not meet the emergency, as the pressure seems to be in that section of the district nearer Win chester's factory.
 The rooms in the new Orchard street school have all been occupied and were near ly full during the last term, while the Dwight school has been less crowded than formerly.
 The trustees of the New Haven Orphan asylum have shown commendable judgment in erecting commodious building Of four rooms exclusively for school purposes. This building, which is to be ready for occupancy early next term, will be an important aid in

The question is often asked, "What be- comes of the graduates of our grammar schools?" A few go to the High school, but many who reach No. 12 finish their educa- tion then, as far as school is concerned. school furnishes good preparation for any calling, there are some who incline to the contrary idea. The following statement, prepared with the aid of the principals of the grammar schools, is interesting as show ing how pupils pass from the upper grades of the common schools to swell the ranks of those engaged in all the various industrial and professional pursuits. This statement accounts for most of the boys aad girls who attended No. 12 in the grammar schools from 1870 to 1875.

SEPARATION.

The heavy showers which now and then poured from the scudding clouds during last evening prevented what would otherwise have been very large attendance at Carlls Opera House to witness the first production in this city of Bartley Ca9npbell's new play entitled "Separation D The house was sur prisingly we'll filled as it was, and those who ventured were highly repaid. The play of HSeparation' as literary work is doubtless one of MT. Campbelrs best, and is attractive not only for it's literary merit but for the in terest it excites, the mirth it provokes and the many pretty scenes and situations that occur. Il. is altogether pretty play, and al though it's merit is not particularly added to by some of the comica1 characters that are introduced, they are perhaps necessary to the comfort of those who dread to be caught shedding tear in public, and laugh is often the success of many play. A slight sketch of the plot is as follows: Benton Blair (Mr. Nelson WheatcrofD and Dora Blair (Miss Ellie Wi1ton) are man and wife, She has remarkable voice, which has brought her fame the amateur stage. The husband is entirely opposed to her stage proclivities and during his absence on 8 bus mess trip she makes an engagement to ap- pear at a charitable concert. Arriving home on the night of the entertainment he forbids her to 90. She insists, and the result is the separation After 8 career of fifteen years, during which she has become a celebrated prima donna, ahappy denouement is brought about. The company is good throughout and strong in the person of Miss Ellie Wilton, who has ladylike and culti- v&sed appearance on the stage and force of action enough to do justice to the difficult character she assumes. MT. Wheatcroft, MT. Harry Etyinge as Major Maxwell and MT. T. H. Burns were excellent in their respective characters Several times the leading char acters were brought before the curtain in re- sponse to enthusiastic applause. This after ternoon and evening the performance will be repeated and we trust both will be greet ed with large audiences.

MECHANICAL DRAWING.

The introduction of this branch into the
 upper grades of the grammar schools and
 the High school by Prof. Louis Bail is an
 important step towards more industrial ed

 availed themselves of the opportunity here afforded. Prof. Bail says: F'In the month of May commenced a complete course in mechanical drawing in all the grammar schools, giving the boys of the two upper rooms lesson of one hour each alternate week. The regular teacher is required to give the scholars at least two hours instruc- tion every other week in mechanical draw ing, and thoroughly review all the problems and thus secure considerable practice in the use of the mathematical instruments''
