SCHOOLS HARD PRESSED.
April Term Brings n Large Influx Of
PUniIs.

Since Easter there has been another influx
of children into the public schools, and the
enrolment for April promises to exceed that
of March by several hundred. With this
pressure comes the demand for more room
and more teachers, the pressure In some To-
calities being severe. 1t is likely that at its
next meeting the board will take some action
in regard to an annex for the Willis A. Cor
man school, which is one of the most crowded,
and, as far as possible, new expedients will
be resorted to to relieve the pressure in other
places.

hard by the Hotel de Vile, is the Cathe-
dral of ST. Trophimus. Not far distant
from the cathedral are the remains of tha
Roman theater. The two Corinthian col

as call to mind the giant circle at Stone

chambers opening on the arena, which are
supposed to have been the dens of wild

eighth century converted into fortress
either by the Saracens or by Charles Mar
