 This has been week of glory for the High School. Indeed, the week has been almost as glorious and interesting as the Commence mont week. of the higher school which adorns New Haven. There have been more or less silly "class histories" reams of es- says, triumphant and impressive 'sexercises'' at the Hyperion, and 8 merry dance, or promenade. So have the young men and maidens graduated" and their parents felt rewarded for their part of the work of which this week has been tho culmination..
 It is said, as it perhaps will be said next year, that this class is the best that has ever graduated from the High School. However this may be, it is certain that the graduating exercises this week have revealed much abil- ity and much careful study, and training. It is evident that the High School is not deteri- oratipg under its new management and that it is place where good education, as edu- cations go, can be had. The advantages 1t offers ought to be appreciated by those who are able to take them, and we suppose they are to some extent.
 Of course, every graduating week of the High School calls attention somewhat sharp ly to the question concerning the right of such schools to exist as part of the public school system. The argument against them is strong one, but 1t doesn't seem to be making much impression. One thing, how ever, is certain, and that is that as long as we have High School 1t should be a good

mud sILYER RILL,

The silver bill which has been agreed upon is being carefully and voluminously dis- cussed. It doesn't eeem to really suit any, body, but as 1t Is @ compromise perhaps it couldn't be expected to. The silver men of course think that 1t doesn't go far enough, while conservative fnanciers think 1t goes quite far enough. The friends of the Win- dom bill, who stand midway between the two extremes, critioise the bill on account oi the largely increased imitation of the currency which 1t provides for, over the imitation which would have resulted from their meas- ure. They argue that as soon as the bill goes into operation, if it ever does, the bids which como in from silver producers and handlers will not be under 129 per five ounces, and hence that the annual increase In tho currency of the notes issued on the bullion deposited, in case the American pro. duct was up to the full limit mentioned in the bill. would be $89, ,S16. 500, or about SIG, ,000. 900 more than under ths provisions on which the secretary insisted. They com. plain also that there is no provision in the new bill to protect the treasury in case of . run upon it, as the primary option Is left with the holder of the notes whether to de- mand bullion or not, and no discretion rests with the secretary whether to pay it out against the will of the note
 But it now seems highly probable that the bill will become law. The prospect that 1t will has already made Wall street happie, than 1t has been for some time.

eral Gordon believed to bs the forbidden fruit of the Garden of Eden, has been ex- ported to Europe. The nut weighs twenty pounds and measures twenty-five inches across. The palm on which 1t grows (iodoicea sechellsrum) is 100 feet in height, and ii only to be found on the Ssychells islands. Hundreds of years before the Seychelles were discovered these nuts were washed up on the Maldive islands, and the wiseaeres of those days told the people that this sea-borne fruit had grown on 8 subma- rine tree. and that it had mysterious pow CT of oounteracting poisons. Hence the name-coco-de.mer. It is probable that Gordon met with allusions to this wonderful nut in Arabic MSS, and afterward visiting Seychelles was struck by the beautiful and isolated group of islands and their double coooanut.

A mistress may leave out any of these three words if che finds cause, but few venture to do 50. The day after she has dismissed a servant with defective character she re- ceives a summons to the police station, where che has to swear on the crucidx that the girl is either not honest, industrious, or virtuous. She is vigorously oross-examined, and if the girl insists with her denial, the visits to the police office are repeated over and over again. A written character invienna, there fore, means nothing, and mistresses resort to other means of getting information.

 There is great excitement in Canada ovel the proposition to divide the school fund The priests in Ontario, whose followers ir that province are in the minority, are urging bill for the division, and threaten as usual denial of church privileges to those Catholics who oppose 1t.

In the province of Quebec the Catholic majority is 80 overwhelming that they will have things their own way.
