AMONG THE SCHOOLS.
The Last Term acknowledgement
for Comm encement-Other Notes.

for Comm On cement-Otnor NOtess
The last term of the public school:
opens Monday and closes the last week
in June. To know that the last term is
at hand is enough to signify that both
teachers and scholars will have to
"buckle down to work" for the next
eight weeks. Final examinations, clos
ing entertainments and commencement
essays and orations are beginning to
loom up before the teachers mind.
There will be quite large class grad
uate this year, the number OF graduates
ranging over fifty in number. BY a
wise plan the Board of Education has
made a rule that only the two
highest from each school can
take part on Commencement Day, thus
relieving the monotony OF listening 70
so many participants. Each school
seems to be in the race this year for the
honors. 1t is probable that the contest
ant for the highest grade will be fe-
male. If the boys hustle little they
may have a show, as there are two more
examinations, which embrace five dlf-
ferent studies.
The principals of the different schools
complain about the annoyance with
which they have to contend in the way
of men standing in front of the school
buildings and distributing tickets and
advertisements. The pupils gather
around them in the greatest confusion,
and frequently scenes of disorder trou-
BILE the teachers. Another and
very important matter about this is,
that the tickets may not always ad-
vertise that which the teacher would
approve, but nevertheless he is help
less to prevent the distribution.
Since the base ball craze has been
resumed among the boys there has
! been a general complaint about play
ing in the street. Often people are
under the impression that IL Is the
teachers duty TO prevent this. Tue
teacher takes charge of the boy during
school hours; after that time she has
no more control over him. 1t is the
duty of the police to prevent this null
sance, not the teacher.
The Alumni Association OF Washing
ton School met at the building Wednes-
day evening and made arrangements
for their coming entertainment and
banquet, which takes place Friday,
June Goth. The following officers were
elected: President. Thomas Jones; Vice
Presidents, Misses Laura Fox, Bertha
Chapman and Walter Spargo.
The Alumni Association of Richie
School will give literary entertain
ment at Westwood's Hall, on May eth.
At Washington School there were two
rooms who attained the highest per
cent in punctuaiity during the past
month. The rooms are in charge OF
Misses Nc Donald and Frances.
The Senior Glass of the Linsley were
examined in Analytical Geometry yes
terday. The examination lasted four
hours, and was under the Supervision
OF Lieut.. DEMONSTRATION.
Supt. Anderson was called out OF the
city yesterday by the serious illness OF
his sister who lives in Pennsylvania.
The teachers from all the schools in
the city will be examined the last OF
June. 1t has been quite number Of
years since an examination Of this kind
has taken place.
Next Friday evening tho Linsly boys
will give an entertainment in their
armory. The programme will be must
cal and literary.

MODJFSKA TONIGHT.

A legitimate theatrical event OF i'm

ModjeSka at the Opera House this eve
ming. Modjeska will present Shake
speare's charming comedy, AS you
like It." playing her favorite role
RoSalind.
There is probably no living actress
who has the popularity of Modjeska,
and deservedly. None Of the great
actresses of to-day are as conscientious
In their work as she. She does not give
at times an Indifferent performance IN
order that, at a critical moment, she
may fash out into the highest strain OF
art. Her performances are most I'm
ished productions in each and every
part. As one critic says:-"Modjeska
modifes and subordinates the parts OF
role in such manner, that the play
becomes finely moulded, organic
whole"

STATE CORRESPONDENTS
North Haven.

Dec. 29.-The members of Quinnipiac
council, o. U. A. NJ. wish to extend a
vote of thanks to the ladies who presented
the council a larg 9, finely illustrated and
costly Bible.
Tuesday evening was pleasant, arare ex-
ception to the many stormy Tuesdays of
late, and the North Haven grange members
assembled at Memorial hall in large num-
bers to celebrate the seventh anniversary
of the institution of Grange No. 35. Con-
siderable business was transacted before
the carefully prepared literary program.
Mrs. N. A. Marks resigned the position of
lecturer and Mrs. @. N. Turner resigned as
fora and was elected to the Office of lectur-
er, and Mrs. Marks was chosen to act as
fora. The third and fourth degrees were
conferred on one candidate.
After recess the literary program was
conducted by the lecturer, Mrs. circuit
Mr.. and Mrs. II. 8. Smith commenced the
exercises with a good song, followed by
Mrs. N. A. Marks with an interesting
essay, Miss Lizzie Shepherd and Irving
Mansfield gave duet on banjo and guitar,
Mrs. F. A. Warner read an alphabetical
acrostic on the names of different mem
bers of the grange, which WAS of much in
terest to those mentioned In the will
Autoharp music by Mrs. Sarah Shop
herd received hearty encore, to which
Mrs. Shepherd responded with another
good musical effort.
Essay-sThe Little Town of North
Haven" by L. P. futile, received hearty
applause, Mrs. F. 81. Todd read an exceed
ingly interesting story from the Connecti-
cut Farmer, and Mr.. and Mrs. Smith closed
the exercises with another good song.
Then all repaired to the court room and
enjoyed a chicken supper and all the
varieties of pickles, sauce, fruit, pie, cake
and confectionery necessary for a good
meal.
There is always a sadness connected with
last things, last annual gatherings and
anniversaries, but when made bright and
attractive as the annual Christmas enter
tainment by the Sunday school of st.
Johns church was last Wednesday even
ing, they leave pleasant memories in the
minds of the children, as well those of
more mature years. The familiar stories
of Mother Hubbard, Little Red Riding
Hood and Mother Goose were acted TO per-
fiction, and when veritable Santa Claus
came down the chimney in sighu of all the
little ones, and hung up gift for each
one and seemed to fill the stockings already
hanging by the chimney, their JOY was
complete. They viii remember the pleas.
ant hour far into the next year. All pres
emit were invited to bountifully spread
tables in the court room. Ice cream seemed
to disappear as quickly as when the mer-
curry fs not as near zero.

Yale University Glee Club and its
Western Trip.
A member of the University Glee club,
now on it's western tour, writes as follows:
We gave our first concert Thursday even
ing, December %, at Harrisburg, the home
of Mccormick, captain of the football
team. The opera house, which was beau
tifully decorated, was crowded with the
elite of the city. The concert was follow
ed by a ball given by the Yale Alumni as
ISOLATION, at which we received royal en-
tertainment. On Friday night we sang in
Carnegie hall, Pittsburg. Every selection
was encored. The audisnce, for the most
part, were in full dress. Judging by the
length and style of newspaper articles the
concert was an event of no small import
ance. The ball which followed was simply
magnificent. Of Pittsburg itself I must
say it is the dirtiest city ever was in

though they were down in the New Haven

Yesterday we visited Homestead, went
through the Carnegie mills, where 5000
men are employed. It was very interest
| ing to see the places where the Pinkerton
men landed. Saw some of the barges and
| the high fences on the top of which were
the barbed wires stretched by the order of
Frick. The men are the toughest looking
set I ever saw. One of them had his head
| split open and was killed instantly while
we were there. I asked one of the detect
| ives (of which there is force of 200 about
the grounds) what was the death rate in
the mills. He said about three every day.
During the time of the strike, when new
| men were being broken In, it was about
eight. The mills as you enter give first
class picture of my idea of hsdes-black
| men moving about in hustle, carrying large
| caldrons of molten iron, cursing to beat
the French and sweating like race horses.
Then every four or five feet little flames OF
| natural gas playing up, the great red hot
furnaces, the place filed with smoke, and
almost sitting on account of the heavy
odors. Almost any station in life will sat
isfy me after having lived for two hours
| there.
The reception last night was pleasant in
| deed for every one of us. Mrs. Stewards
house Is the most elegant we have seer

reception some of our party witnessed
"The Mascot" played by the Wilbur Opers
company. Our Christmas dinner on the
train is to be served at p. m.-rosst pig

if I fail to grow fat it will not be because ]

changed to give us whole day at Chicago
