TEACHERS RECEPTION.
Reunion of Illinois Peda-
gogues in this City.
THE BOARD OF EDUCATION.
Correction of the Census Marshars
Rep0rt-Othar Matters Of
Local Interest.

Not often, even in cosmopolitan Los
Angeles, has there gathered more re-
markable company than were assembled
in the brilliantly lighted rooms of the
Normal School last evening. Over forty
guests were invited to renew the assecia-
tions of many years ago, all of whom
were formerly neighbors and friends In
the city of Bloomington and its euburb
Normal, the seat of Illinois first and
most fourishing Normal School. Prof.
More, the genial President of the Los
Angeles institution, was one of the first
instructors in the excellent school of
which Illinois is so Justly proud.
Edwin @. Hewitt, for thirty-one years
the Principal of this institution, who,
vention of teachers in San Francisco,
found himself the center OF an enthusi-
astic circle of admirers, among whom
were Prof. Stetson, an associate instructor
in the same school for twenty-five years,
Mrs. Stetson, teacher with him for q
number OF years, and Prof. Seymour, for
twenty-three years member of the same
Faculty. Eighteen of the company had
been pupils at this school and six
different classes were represented by its
graduates, prominent among whom are
Miss Dunn of the Los Angeles
Normal School and Miss Overman
of its city schools. Another graduate,
Aaron Cove, is the honored President Of
the National Teachers Association, now
about to convene in San Francisco.
Nearly all Of these representatives of the
intelligence and culture of Illinois are
now settled in this city. Among its most
progressive and enthusiastic citizens, and
who are pioneers, are the we'll known
Prof. Grow and his estimable family.
The evening was passed in social inter-
course and the mutual recalling of old
scenes and the renewing of former friend
ships. None of the happy company were
more cordially welcomed than Mr.. and
Mrs. Stewart, who carried on for many
years the most popular clearinghouse
for Normal students in this famous CITY.
Shortly after o'clock light refreshments
were served and the visitors seemed to
heartily enjoy the hospitality rendered to
them by the representatives of the local
teachers, among whom Mrs. A. S. Aver
i'll was the foremost. Prof. E. @. Hewitt
gave very amusing rendition of one of
the old-time songs, and shortly afterward
the reception ended and the guests de-
parted to meet again in San Francisco.

THE MANHATTAN CLUB.

An En- tn usiastfc Meeting-Arrange-
ments for Saturday.
A rousing meeting of the Manhattan
Democratic Club was held yesterday
evening in Justice Taney's Court room,
about fifty members OF the organization
being present. 1t was decided to give a
ball in the Turnverein Hall about the
21st inst, due notice of which will be
given later. A meeting is to be held on
Thursday evening to arrange for grand
turnout on Saturday evening for the s.
M. White celebration. The drum corps
will be uniformed in Zouave cos
tune and all the one hundred
members of the Club will be
present. Each parader will carry an
American flag to show the Republicans
that the Democrats claim just as much a
right to the national emblem as they do.
A communication was read from Jesse
Yarnell, asking that arrangements be
made for a debating contest with the
members of the Young Mems Prohibition
Club, which was, however, declined with
thanks. A quantity of routine business
was disposed of and then adjournment
was taken until Thursday evening.

BOARD OF EDUCATION.
Errors of the Census Marshal to No
GOrPeCfeG.

Corrected.
The Board of Education met last night,
Mr.. Johnson in the chair, and Messrs.
Day, Embody, Kelly and Superintendent
w. M. Friesner present
The first matter discussed was in rela-
ton to discrepancies in the school census
recently taken, which we're called to the
attention of the Board by General
Briefly. 1t appears that the census con-
tanned number of duplicates, and that
in one case citizen married but four
years was credited with five children.
Besides this, an orphan asylum was
omitted entirely and other mistakes were
made which required that the census
should be revised. General Briefly was
empowered to make the corrections
necessary.
The following teachers were elected !:
Miss Louise Walters, Miss Annie M.
Perkins, Miss Bertha wilkins, Miss Cora
Barnum, Miss Mary E. Quale and Mrs.
F. E. s. Burt. The election of other
teachers was postponed until the next
regular meeting.
Misses E. B. Wait and Lizzie A. Pack
ard were granted leave of absence until
January /, 1889.
A set OF text books for the High School
was adopted, and vote of thanks was
rendered the Trustees OF the First Bap-
tist Church for the use OF the church for
rehearsals.
Superintendent w. NJ Freisners was
granted leave of absence for one week
to attend the National Teachers Con-
vention.
The Board then adjourned.

A Boon to Traffic.

Yesterday for the first time the double
track on Main sect for the one-horse
car line was put in operation, thus en-
abling these vehicles to make better time
to and from the depot. The double
track starts at the foot OF Temple street
and terminates north of the Plaza, where
the cars now wait for each other, instead
of at the switch at the head Of Upper
Main street. This switch is now being
torn up, as it is no longer necessary.

There was not very large attendan &c
at the Pavilion last night to witness the
first performance of The Black Nantes,
by the Pyke Opera Company, but this
was to be expected, as the theatre-goers
naturally crowded to the opening of the
Grand Opera House. The production,
however, was given with great vim by
the members of the company who de-
servedly earned the continued approba-
ton OF the audience throughout the
whole piece. Mr.. Valerga was in good
voice and was well supported by Mr.
Clark, who, in the role of the miller, was
very funny, while Miss Eva Norman, as
'the Queen" deserves favorable men

given tonight, and tomorrow the Mika

GRAND REOPENING.
The Opera House n Blaze OF Mag
nificence.

nificence.
The reopening of Childs' Grand Opera
House, last night, renovated, enlarged
and beautified throughout. was greeted
by one Of the finest and most fashionable
audiences ever seen in this city. The
theater is indeed the richest in its adorn-
ments and finish in the United States,
and set off, as it was last night by the
splendid toilets and grace and beauty OF
the leading society ladies of our city, a
scene was presented that reminded one
of some fairyland picture.
The Denman Thompson troupe signal
lied the opening by presenting their very
interesting, touching and dramatic piece,
The Old Homestead. This is genuine
New England drama, and abounds in
scenes that brought back to many of the
audience striking realization Of the old
farm m-house of their youth. Mr.. Thomp-
sons 'tJoshua Whitcomb" is an
impersonation of the Yankee farmer
SO true to nature that none
who have lived in the East failed to
greet him as an old acquaintance. We
had all seen him at some period OF our
lives, and had all known his kindly voice
and fatherly ways. The old farmhouse
was as natural as when we were last in
it; and it's inmates and visitors. from
Aunt Matildy and Cy Prime and Seth
Perkins to Rickety Ann and Len Hol-
brook, were all characters we had
actually known at SOME period of our
lives. Thus the stage, instead of an
illusion, became reality. The people
were not actors, but old friends. This
is really the highest kind of achieve
ment in dramatic art. The piecc passed
off in all it's acts without the slightest
hitch, and the vast audience went away
not only satisfied with a performance
that greatly pleased them, but with the
splendid changes that had been
accomplished in their favorite theater
in 80 short a time.
A pleasing episode. and surprise at
that, took place between the third and
fourth acts. Manager Wyatt suddenly
rose in his box and addressed the aud
ience. As he proceeded he paid fine
tribute to Mr.. J. M. Woods, the architect
who had presided over the great
interior transformations made in
the theater, and said he felt
so proud of the work that
had been accomplished by him, that he
had determined in this public manner to
give at least slight token Of his graft
tude. He then called up Mr.. Woods,
who was sitting in his box, and presented
him with valuable diamond ring. Mr..
Woods received the gift in modest
speech, and paid a fine compliment to
the artistic taste of our people, many
of whom had greatly assisted him in
his designs and executions by their valu-
able advice. He never had been in
California before, but since he had been
here he had received nothing but kind
ness and goodwill, and he would always
remember the visit as the brightest spot
in his life. OF course, the audience ap-
plauded this pretty little episode, and
everybody felt that Manager Wyatt had
done neat and unusual thing in an un-
usual way.
The Old Homestead again this evening.
