ng-Assignment of Teachers.
The publis schools of Topeka are
again in operation. At half-past eight
o'clock this morning the bells of the
various schools rang out the fact that
vacation time was over and that school
days were at hand. The attendance
was not as large as expected on &C
count of the rain.
All the schools of the city, including
the high school, opened at o'clock this
morning, and the entire day has prac-
tically been taken up in arranging the
different grades and instructing the
pupils as to supplies, etc. The opening
hour of the high school will be o'clock,
the same as in the past, but this morn
ing the students did not assemble until
an hour later
Although the complete enrolment will
not be in for several days, Superintend-
ent Davidson believes there is an in
crease in the school population as COM
pared with that of last year. The
schools in all portions of the city are
full
Scores of school children with books
under their arms have been on Kansas
avenue all day. They are the pupils
who were not thoroughly equipped for
school work on entering school this
morning.

tive schools on time this morning. The
