One of the most enjoyable events of the
week was that of + Iday evening last at
Mr.. Stover's, on Fourth avenue. The oc-
casion was a surprise party to Miss Eta
Slower, acting matron OF News-boys home.
Knowing that her duties would detain her
until a late hour at the home, a party of
young friends, about thirty in number,
took possession of the pariors and house
in general, preparatory to her arrival.
young friend was then sent to accompany
her home. The surprise was complete.
On entering the parlors she found her
self besleged by group OF hand
shaking associates and friends.
She soon regaiued her composure, howev-
err. and entertained the callers right roy
ally. In this she was ably assisted by her
sister, Miss May. Near Ii o'clock the
guests were treated to a lunch of fine cake,
fruits, etc. After various games, music,
and an enjoyable time generally the guests
began TO leave, with many expressions OF
pleasure and wishes for the frequent re-
turn of like event. Among those pres
ent were the following: Messrs. Charlie
Martin, Chas. Vosburgh Chas. Koetsch.

Friday evening the teachers and pupils
of the Irving public school gave an enter
tainment OF select songs Rotations. farceS
and tableauXs of more than ordinary
merit. The program was rendered on the
boards of the Garfield opera house to a
full and select audience, and from the free
flow of applause it was evident to even the
mind OF critic OF some experience
that the presentations as whole was a
satisfactory and high order for children
and amatureS.
The EAGLE regrets that through the
report of this interesting rendition of the
Irving school was published in yesterday
mornings paper.
The chorus America" by the whole
school, was rendered with fine effect.
Then fallowed various pieces which elicit
ed hearty applause, until the exhibition of
the Amazon drill, under the leadership of
Miss Minnie Eller, was put on. This con-
sisted of various tactical evolutions by
full number of little and 10-year old
girls and boys, which carried the mind
back to the days of women warriors, he'll
NETS, shields and swords. A song render
ed by the Irving Glee club next received a
burst of applause. Then came the Kinder
Symphony, with fine effect. The presen-
tation was concluded by the tabeau
"America" in fine statueSQue style and
order of arrangement Among the per-
sonel Mr.. J. 5. Carson, principal; Miss
Leida H. Mills, Miss Jessie
l.. Clark, Miss Gussie L Hoyt,
Miss Louie Chamberlain and Miss Minna
Eller deserve great credit for forming
cast of such clever character from the raw
material in a school of children. Among
the pupils 1t is impossible to mention every
one deserving it if we could do so. But
little Florence Anderson, Pearl Finney,
Horace Hutchinson. who beat the bass drum,
Ida Magee, Miss Chambers and Lydia
Haines may be mentioned for proper de-
pertinent in many respects while playing
their parts. The recitation of ''Sparticus'
by John Rutlidge, was very cleverly done
for a juvenile rendition, the
performance was success.
