School Exercises.

Mr.. EDIToR:-I attended the closing
exercises OF Brooklyn Public School,
ON the night of the 9th insty taught by
Miss Kit,ic Simpson, principal and
Miss'Mary Thompson, assistant This
school is very large, and one of the
most interesting of the county.
The concert was well conducted,
the performance on the stage was good
the actors playing their parts with
credit to themselves and teachers
| have never seen n brighter display
of intelligence shown in the faces Of
any children. than was shown at
Brooklyn concert. The fact was clear
~ demonstrated that they were well
trained by their teachers. The pat
rons seemed truly proud that their
children had been SO carefully drilled
as to appear SO little embarrassed up
on the stage.
The time will come, in the near fn-
ture. when the children of Brooklyn
school will rise up and praise the
names OF the Young ladies who have
taught thpm SO aflectionately and well
several years past. The exercises
were attended by a large c%onco'irsc
of people, estimated to be at least 400
men and women and children. .
what a bencdiction the Public Schools
of the country are TO the poor children
And Mr.. Editor we feel proud of the
Young ladies' of this country who have
struggled SO long and so hard to pre-.
parc themselves TO teach and TO train
the Youths of the country for the So
cicty of both earth and Heaven.
/ cannot close this article without
saying something. Of: the candidates
who attended the Brooklyn concert
It is said they did not pretend to cleo.
~tioncer with anyone, as they felt that
the ground on which they stood was
"holy and sacred" and seemed TO be
occupied by II convoy OF little angels
in their robes OF white. But nctwiib'
standing their limidily we think they
made very favorable impressions, anu
no doubt Il good vote in that corner
of the COUNTY. The icople like OH

your remarks are very pertinent you
have failed to set forth the full meaning

it might be endured, but 1t not infre-

are tried in one day, and in each case he
demands his $40. Quite recently l wac

other cases had been disposed of my
case was called five minutes before time
for the Court to adjourn, simply that it
might have precedence next day. The
reporter did not have to take down
twenty words; yet be cody demanded
his per diem of $40. The next day was
all taken up and he received $40 On
the third day the case was concluded at
noon, but for this half day he received
another $40. Here was $50 for less than

brute to get out of the way. When the
animal awoke the pilot was within few
feet of him, and so confused was he with
fright that, instead of running away, he
ran right under the wheels. The poor
brute was half in a state for sausage
when the train had passed. His head
was severed from the trunk, his legs were
cut off, and the heart and lungs lay
bleeding on the rails. 1t was, of course,
some time after the wheels had wrought
such q wreck of the animal that the peo-
pie at the street corners came to the spot /;
yet strange to relate the heart was beat
ing away as if it were inside the dogs
body intact! A bystander took out his
watch and timed the heartbeats, and it
was two and a half minutes before the
eye ceased to be able to discern the pull
eations of the vital organ. 1t is queer
study in the matter of violent death.

A Runaway Team.

Last Wednesday paisano came down
Alameda street towards Also, driving q
team attached to farm wagon. Some
thing frightened the horses 30 that they
ran away. The pole was badly fixed in
the yoke, and the end fell out OF the ring
and plowsd up the street in trightful
way. The situation was dangerous, and
the driver jumped from the wagon. At
the corner of Also the horses ran wildly
in diagonal course across to the door of
the store of P. Ballade. Had the door
been open, they might have entered the
place and done much damage. AS it
was, the end of the pole ran into the
wall between the casing of the door and
the bricks, coming out almost on the
other side. 1t required the strength OF
several men to pull the wagon back. The
horses slipped on the sidewalk and fell
prone on some bales of fence-wire, cut
ting their legs badly.
