NeuYear,s at the canIta1.

WASHINGTON, D. C.-The year 1891 opened
wet, disagreeable and gloomy, and the streets
were filed with slush so as to make pedes-
trianism decidedly unpleasant. The New
Years day. however, was generally observed.
The presidents reception was the feature OF
the day. The White house never looked pref
tier. Special pains were taken with the dec
orations. The government conservatory and
hot houses were taxed to their utmost capac-
ity for flowers and plants used in the de-
vices. These were all of patriotic character,
being fac smiles of the flag of the union and
the national coat of arms. both of which
were prominently displayed In different parts
of the house. The receiving party formed a
line between the entrance and exit doors.
The members of the diplomatic corps were
first received. They were nearly all present.
All wore full court costume, which in many
cases was of the most gorgeous description.
They we're presented by Secretary Blaine and
Assistant Secretary Wharton, and made a
brilliant spectacle with their glittering jew
els and clankling swords. Baron Fava, OF
Italy, who is dean of the corps by virtue of
seniority of service. led the procession and
was followed by Minister Romero, of Mexico.
Nearly all the diplomats were accompanied
by ladies. Accompanying the corps were the
members of the international monetary con-
ference and the members of the American
international railway conference. They we're
followed soon after by the chief justice and
associate justices of the supreme court, the
judges Of the United States court of claims
and the judiciary of the District of Column
bia.
The other official receptions were largely
attended, most of the people who visited the
White house called also on the vice presi-
dent and the members of the cabinet, all the
latter excepting Secretary Tracy keeping
open house.
Secretary Blains gave the diplomatic corps
a breakfast Immediately after the reception
of the CORPS at the White house and after.
wards received the public. Miss Blaine as
sisted him.

stormy Parliamen,arr Period.

BERLIN, January 6.-The Cologne Gazette
warns Chancellor Won Capriv that nothing
is more dangerous than unrealized promises.
The government, 1t says, since Bismarck s
retirement, has achieved nothing. The pro-
jects for labor reform, an alteration of the
system of taxation, the new school system,
the news customs system and the new COM
munal legislation have opened up perspec-
five of internal conflict, of which it is m
possible to forsee the consequences The
year promises to be a stormy parliamentary
period for the government, with the proba-
bic temperance of Bismarck in the fore
front of events

General Forsythe was relieved of his COM

regiment.
Major Whitesides says the affair was an
accident; that few moments before the
fighting begun the squaws were merrily pelt-
ing the searching parties with bundles of
rags. The accepted reason for General For
syihe's relief is the manner in which his
troops we're placed in the fight.

Things worth Remembering.

When you feel kind of goneness about the
stomach 1t is a sign that yonr food does not sit
well, and that you are about to have a fit OF In
digestion.
When you begin to feel nervous. and are un-
able to sit still com mfOrtaby; when your clothes
suddenly seem to lose their fit and become too
tight In places, the fit of indigestion is surely
upon you.
When this ft of indigestion is repeated from
day to day, 1t finally resolves itself into
dyspepsia.
Chronic dyspepsia will surely make the hap
piest life he'll. upon earth.
Remember that three to ten of BRANDRETH's

of them, say two every night for week or ten
days will act as preventive of either com

How Miss Cory Teaches Her Class in the
Eighth Street School-How Methods
Have Changed.

In search of class a grade higher
than the one described in last Sundays
HERALD, the school reporter visited the
Eighth street school. There he was re-
.ceived by the principal, Miss Margaret
X. Scott, and introduced by her to the
teacher of the second grade classes. The
teacher in question, Miss Harriet Cory,
is teacher OF several years experience
in Fresno, but has only recently come to
this city. The principal introduced the
reporter as a visitor, and Miss Cory,
who doubtless thought him the brother
of some of the little tots, received him
politely and then paid no further at
tention to him while she called her
children to order and proceeded to give
them music lesson.
The readers OF the HERALD will many
of them remember the old time music
charts with their hieroglyphics and
songs, such as Lightly Row." and
other classical selections. These old
charts, with the pitch pipe or tuning
fork, used to constitute the stock in
trade OF the music instructors OF less
than dozen years ago, but we live in
a progressive age, and the music teacher
Of this section now uses the Tonic Sol
Fa system. This is an importation from
Europe, and differs from the old system
il. this way: The old system of notes
required the child first to decide what
letter note stood for, by its posi-
tion on the staff, then to decide
what sound the letter represented,
making two distinct processes
in the child's mind. The Tonic Sofia
system uses the letters in the place of
notes and uses the syllables for the notes
instead of the staff letters. Thus, the
first letter of the syllable stands for the
note, and the child's mind has to go
through but one process to determine
the sound to be given. Every one knows
how complex the music in books seems,
even to those somewhat acquainted with
the art. Compare this simple diagram
with the old staff and signs:
