VIII you allow space IN your val
liable paper for few words in
regard to our school? AS you are
aware, the school closed on the 18th,
which we regret. Our school was
taught by Mr.. W. A. Moffett, prin-
cipal, and Miss Lille Lohr, assist
ant, and l can say that they gave
satisfaction in every respect. AS I
have visited the school different
times and always found it conduct
ed respectfully and the pupils stu
dious and obedient. The teachers
deserve praise for the manner in
which they controlled the school,
The school was visited by several
Of the patrons on the last day, and
was addressed in a very able man
ner by Messrs. Joel Orendorf and
Jonas Bittinger. The patrons of
this school have solved the problem
of how to have longer terms-by
paying the teacher--and on Monday
the 10th, Mr.. Moffett will open
school again. The acquaintance of
SO short a time made him number
Of friends who wished him to re-
main with them. In conclusion,
would say that it is our wish when
the public schools open again to
see theaasame teachers in their
rooms. B.

AMUSEMENT NOTES.
THE SECOND PERFORMANCE OF
THE CRIMSON SCARF.
''The Black Flag. at the Theatre
Tonight-Miss SCOTS Art Recep-
tion-Jackson Clubs Ball.

The Eighteenth ward hall was crowd
ed last evening for the second perfor-
nance of the sparkling little opera,
the "Crismon Scarf
Preceding the opera Mr. John Robin
son sang THE Monarch of the Wood
and as an encore "a Soldier and a
Man. both with pleasing effect.
Mr.. H. NJ Wells reading of THE
Carving of the Turkey" was irresis-
tibly funny. Miss Maud May Babcock
was happy in her description of THE
Ruggleses Dinner Party" much more
SO than. in her rendering of AUX
Italiens'
Mr.. Eliason's feats of skill in leger-
domain were greeted with loud ap-
plause, especially after an original
trick.
The opera went off with, if possible,
more smoothness and verve than on
the preceding evening. The charac-
tiers were we'll sustained. Mrs. Wood
row was very attractive in her role
of the stately yet timorous Blanca
Miss Winston, bewitching as gay,
saucy, warm-hearted Tessa, George D.
Pyper was a good lover but made a
special hit in his overtures to the puz-
zled father of his inamorata- ]. D.
Spencer was well-nigh perfect in his
role of the nervous father, and B. S.
Young inimitable as a terrifier. Geo.
Westervelt improved upon his previous
performance and Sci Clawson looked
the medieval amanuensis, though there
was little acting to be done.
The quartette, TIE soprano and con-
trolto duet. 1.-THE Venetian Boat Song
and the soprano solo, ''Beppo is Young
and Cay" were especially fine, and the
accompaniments by Professors Krouse
and Wefhe, were excellent. The inter
polated airs added much to the at
Effectiveness of the opera.
On the whole the operatic entertain-
ment was an immense success and re-
fleets great credit upon the origin a1or
of the plan, Mr., H. G.. Whitney. That
gentleman has shown great ability in
his management, not the least of which
was his choice of performers.
The proceeds will net a neat sum
which will be used for charitable pur-
poses in the Eighteenth ward.

Pafenf rnrinsrs.

The Union Pacific Railroad company
are putting in what are known as the
patent purifiers" on their engines
running on the eventh district The
purifiers enable an engine to be run
continuously for month or longer
without washing them out. One of
them was attached to an engine sew
eral weeks and sgiven a thorough test
by Engineer Birney, and it has proven
very satisfactory. He run it thirty
days without washing it out and says
it could have been run longer. The
trial proved such a. success that thir-
teen more have been ordered attached
to engines on the Seventh district as
fast as possible. They are quite a
saving in time and labor Without
them, on account of bad water, engines
had to be washed out at each end of
the run to keep them from foaming,
but with the new patent, as soon as
the engines are blown out they are
ready to be turned around for another
trip.-Rawlins Republican.

Aluminium in Flashlights.

The use of aluminium in place of mag
nesium for the production of fasklight
is strongly advocated by Prof Glase-
nappe He states that aluminium. if en-
ployed in the form of bronze powder
is not only equal to magnesium as a
source of light in taking photographs
by f1ashlight, but that it is really much
cheaper than the latter The following
is stated to be the proper mixture for
the purpose: Aluminium powder III parts
by weight, sulphide of antin1cny 1873 parts
and potassium chloride 645 parts. the
same precaution being taken in prepar-
ing the. mixture as in the case Of the
magnesium fashlight. In regard to the
rapidity of combustion of such a mixture
one-seventeenth of a second has been
found out; two grains of the mixture
were burned in a small heap, two en-
long and one en-. wide. And in respect
of chemical intensity, Prof. G.. states that
he found by exposing gelatine plates be-
meath a Warnerke actinometer to the
light of said mixture and to that of other
mixtures prepared with magnesium. the
employment of equal quantities of the
metals resulted in a superior light from
aluminium though not of considerable
amount. The speed of combustion is as
sertained to be slower--about one-fifth of
a second-if a mixture is used composed
of thirty parts, by weight, of aluminium
powder and seventy parts of potassium
chlorate.-New York Sun.

read the press dispatch in yesterdays

deep regret. Esteemed alike from her
personal character and her charms as

three short plays in one evening, had
for Miss Vokes as its sole successful
exponent. Always surrounded by ar
lists of high ability, she made her
triple-bill performances highly priced
This kind of entertainment will be
buried with Rosina Vokes.

THE IRVINE CASE.
Stay of Proceedings Granted Pend
ing Motion for n New Trial.

ing Motion for n New Trial.
In the Third district court yesterday
before Chief Justice Merritt was argued
in the case of W. H. Irvine VS.. Adeline
M. Irvine, a motion for a stay of exc
cution on the judgment pending the
hearing of the motion for a new trial.
Attorney w. H. Dickson was for the
plaintiff and Attorneys John NJ. Zane
and ]. A. Marshall for the defense.
Counsel for Mrs. Irvine objected to
the stay so far as related to attorneys
fees and suit money. They had no OBJ
lection. however, as to alimony. It
was claimed by Judge Marshall that
the counsel fees and suit money were
payable in any event, no matter how
the case resulted, and that these were
not appealable.
The motion was allowed on condi-
ton that Irvine file a bond in the sum
of $4,000 to insure that he would pay
the attorneys fees and costs when
called upon so to do. Mr. Dickson
thought there was no necessity for the
bond, as there was no danger of Mr. Ir-
vine disposing of any of his property
Mr.. Marshall held a different view and
thought there was very great danger
of his doing so and his honor decided
that the bond should he filed.

is Of very fine character William

of ore from the Homestake mine in
