THE EVENING SCHOOL.
1t Began Last Evening With a Promising
Registration-Benefits Conferred by this
Excellent Institution.

The evening school opened again last
evening for the third winters work. There
was.a registration of about seventy, which
promises large attendance for the winter.
1t is expected that about thirty more will
attend in the woman's room, and there will
be about sixty new ones. The first regular
session for instruction will begin this eve
ming.
The school this winter will be under the
charge of Principal J. A. Milliken. with C.
o. Caswell, T. J.. Gately. Jr., Lizzie F.
Walsh and Carrie B. Norton as assistants.
A notable Improvement has been made in
the accommodations. Ward three voting
room has been divided into two parts by
partition, making two good sized school
rooms, each seating about. forty. One of
these rooms. with an entrance by itself, is
for women pupils. The other room is one
of the these set apart for men. The old
Provident room with seats for about 26, and
the old Veteran Fireman's room. with seats
for forty. are the other rooms. Thus these
four.rooms are side by side on the same
floor. with convenient entrances from the
Myrtle street side. Observation-Disclosures
has an Office on the floor above, in the
truant officer room.
The evening school enters upon It's third
winter with its position firmly established
as one of the most valuable institutions in
the city. Its benefits'ar conferred entirely
| upon worthy people who appreciate them.
Last evening a.few boys of fourteen who
work all day were reg istered; but most OF
the pupils were from twensy-one to forty
years of age. They are intent upon their
work and there is never case requiring
discipline. The teachers, all but one of whom
| teach in the day schools, say that their eve-
| ing work is positive recreation.
The old idea that one cannot learn readi-
| ~ after the years of early youth are gone,
seems to be shattered blythe experiences of
the evening school, After two winters, or
a hundred and sixty nights OF school, these
pupils are able to read well in the third and
fourth readers, write a good hand and work
in the four fundamental of arithmetic,
with fair knowledge also of small
fractions. This time is less than regular
school year. Some OF the pupils OF the last
Two winters came back last evening asking
II they could read United States history
TINS winter in order that they might get to
understand the Constitution.
Last.year as much history as possible was
worked into the reading lessons. This year
considerable biography will be read begin
ming with Franklin's autobiography, and
passing on to Edison's, with talks on
electricity interspersed.
The evening school is absolutely free to
all who wish to attend. Books and writing
material are furnished free. The only
charge is upon those who study booktkeep-
ing and that is only fifty cents for blanks.

grin turned into an annual deficit with the ac-
cumuating debt to the parent company 10y the
annual report OF 1893 this debt appears ~ DE

least for the contention Of the Short Line STOCK
holders that this entire debt should be assumed
by the Union Pacific Company, which has reaped
ALL the advantages of the connection with the
Short Line while putting upon that company all
its risks It may be open question IN this
state OF affairs whether the minority stockholm
ers of the Short Line would not be benented by
a breaking up OF the Union Pacific system WHICH
should result In putting the Short Line upon an
independent basis. making It's own rates ana 90
ing business in It's own way. BY its road from
Granger TO Butte Mont II commands the larg-
est &C a-carrying traffic west of the MISSOURI
Rivera business which ought to be very profit
able in itself but which. having been carried on
under Union Pacific management In connection
with the ownership Of the Rock Springs coal
mines. has not been made to yield the revenue II
ought.
Another portion of tn, Short Line property
which under proper management should be
profitable in itself Is the line from Ogden through
Salt Lake City to Frisco. In Utah, about ZSo
miles in length. This road with its competitor
the Denver and Rio Gr,nde. commands all the
north and south traffic Of Utah. 1t is bonded

The permanent separation Of the oregon haii-
way and Navigation lines from the Union Pacilc
and the release in consequence of the Short Line
from the obligations thereby incurred seem 10 be
Inevitable though the ownership Of majority Oh
the NAVIGATION stock by the Short Line Will I'M
doubtedly complicate matters very much. Inc
Union Pacific receivers and the Reorganization
Committee are understood 10 be working In har-
mnnv and no doubt both making an earnest
effort 10 bring about n reorganization upon terms
