LAW FOR THE NIGHT SCHOOLS.
The Commissioners Discover Authority
for Them in "wobb's Digest Of Dis
trIct Jaw.u

for Them in "wobb's Digest of Dis
trict Law"
School Trustee Clark stated yesterday that
the night schools had come 10 stay. Wodnes.
day night showed that there was great need OF
school facilities. over fifly pupils had to be
turned away for want Of accommodation. A
large number OF the pupils were found to have
been former pupils Of the public schools, and
had to leave for one reason or another, the
principal one being poverty. Many of the
pupils were found TO have been In the fourth
and fifth grades. The idea now OF the trustees
is TO give the pupils attending night school the
same advantages MS the day pupils enloy-be'
ginning with the primary course and extend
Ing through the various grades aud graduating
in the high rchool course. To carry out this
plan will cost between $4,000 and $4,000, but
1t will come to 1t. The trustees are determined
TO help along the schools
Commissioner Webb stated that the commits
sioners had found n law In "Webb's Digest
authorizing the establishment of night schools
for four months In the year. The law also pro
yided for the payment of salaries OF teachers
The commissioners will ask Congress to pro
vide money to aid the schools.

LoNDoX, February l2.-Gen. Wolseley
telegraphs that Col. Brackenburg reports
from Dulka Island, about IS miles above
Merawi, that Earle's attack was well planned
and gallantly executed. 1t ia expected the
effect viii be to open the way to Berber
without further fighting. The rebels held q
high ridge on the razor.backed hills. Six
companies of the Black Watch and six COM
panies Of the Stafford regiments marched
around the high hills, entirely turning the
enemy's position. which was then attacked
from the rear.
The enemy was not great IN point OF num-
bers, but his position was very strong and
difficult Of access. They fought with most
determined bravery. General Earle was
among the foremost in the attack, and his
fall was the cause of deep lament from every
officer and man in the force. He was killed
On the summit of the hills, behind which
the enemy was posted. At almost the same
time, Lieutenant Colonel Eyre was killed.
The camp was captured BY the Nineteenth
Hussars. The English success was complete
Ten standards were among the spoils Of
victory. The enemys dead were lying
thick among the rocks and in an open field.
When they found themselves surrounded
they made desperate effort torush through
the English column, in which rush but few
escaped The English losses consisted of
General Earle, Col Eyre, Lieutenant Col
onel Coventry and niue men of the rank
file killed; four officers and twenty-oue men
wounded.
