The pupils of the Emporia avenue pub
lie scnool, Bird block, have set their mark
high, and last Friday afternoon made
their first attempt under the new regime.
Ole CroE!mer and John Rutiedge took
the negative side, and Lucie Guthrie and
Lon Van Swearingen the affirmative of the

bate as the young gentlemen. If not more;
at any rate they made the most notable

his pet project warmly defended and up
held and praised, and the next would
scarcely have been able TO believe his ears,
SO crushing would be the opposing argu-
ments. The chalrwoman filled her posi-
ton with all the eclat OF Reed, of late
fame, and several OF the interested audi
ence, becoming warmed up tried, like the
old lady on her first visit to theatre
where thrilling piece held the boards to
take n hand aud influence things accord |
