Peck, Emma M Smith and others.
 One of the exhibits of special interest and receiving special attention is the display of clay and plaster work, for which the public are indebted much to Professor Bail, he hay ing given instruction free of charge after school hours to three classes of about twen- ty-fve students each in this branch of artis- tic endesvor. The work exhibited by the mem- bers of the three classes speaks well for the quality of the instruction received and the artistic taste of the exhibitors. The three classes represent the Dwight, Skinner and Woolsey schools respectively, and are com posed of teachers and of pupils of the high est grades in those schools. The instruction was given each class separately, each at it's respective school building. Each class makes a very creditable and interesting display of work in clay. Woolsey in addi- tion shows two heads of Minerva in plaster, the work respectively of Miss Ada B. Hyde, teacher of room 12, residing at 46 Elm street, and Miss Myra Dowd, of Miss Hyde's room. These two heads are especially excel lent. Woolsey school also makes hattering exhibit in fine penmanship and in map work. Perhaps the best in pennanship is Miss Myra Dowd. of room 12. Said gentleman at the exhibition last night to another: "Put the ten thousand or more children in the public schools at work doing their best in writing and in half an hour you would have five thousand specimens of penmanship which would excel the penmanship of the average statesman.o
 Mayor Holcomb and many Aldermen and Councillnen and all of the members of the Board of Educ ation attended the exhibition last night. The exhibition is open to the public.
 The public can view the exhibition this, to morrow and Friday evenings and Thurs day and Friday afternoons.
