AT ST. JosEpHs SCHOOL
REVIEW OF THE WORK IN KEHSs
By FATHER Yyr1LB84as.

Rev. L. j. Wslbers, priest in charge
of st. Joseph's Industrial School for
Colored Boys at Clayton, has interest
lingly reviewed the last three years of
iSt. Joseph's Industrial School at Clay
ton. says the Dover Delawarean. The
year 1896 was taken up in erecting a
number OF suitable buildings and with
all the work required in this task, il
was impossible to start any trade.
The buildings were completed in
July, 1897, ami on the 5th of that
month the institution was dedicated
with appropriate exercises, amidst
vast concsurse Of distinguished men
of the state Then printing. shoemak-
ing and tailoring were started, and in
these departments considerable pro-
gress has been made since. The print
ing department is perhaps the best
equipped between Wilmington and
Norfolk. Last May a cabinet making
department was added, fitted out with a
complete set OF the most modern ma
chinery.
Quite a number of boys receive here
INSTRUCTION in all kinds OF wood work
ing, including drawing and carving
Samples OF carving done by the boys
were exhibited to the members OF the
league. The engineering department is
presided over by flrst-class manager.
An opportunity is given for the pupils
to become proficient in attending to
steam boilers. engines. steam pumps,
gasoline engines, and hot air pumps.
This department is fitted out with all
the necessary appliances to do all re-
pair work.
Recently an electric light plant was
installed II was thought that this way
OF lighting the shops would reduce the
danger from fire TO a minimum, be-
sides giving the pupils an opportunity
to become familiar with electric power.
AS further precaution against fire the
large new steam pump, with capacity
OF 100000 gallons day, has been pro-
vided, with attachment to pump direct
/ ly into the fireplugs and hose. The
gas machine has not given satisfaction,
but recently Il was put in working or
der again. and now. with the improved
burners, the church and dwellings are
lighted very satisfactorily
It was long thought that one man
could not effectively retain charge OF

land hence a week ago Rev. Thomas b.
Donovan was placed in charge OF St.
Iosephs Industrial School in Clayton.
Father Donovan has worked very sue
lcessfully in Virginia for the last three
years. and there is every reason to
believe that under his management the
Industrial School will make still great
or progress in the future.

A revival meeting is now in progress

The Cemetery Association, which, by
the way, is composed of some of the
most worthy and public-spirited wo-
men of our town, gave an entertain
ment for the benefit of the city of the
dead on Monday night. The program
opened with a delightfully."- rendered
solo by Miss Virgie Marshall, which
was followed by a vocal selection by
Miss Seavey. who received and re
sponded to a hearty encore. Misses
Esther Priebatsch and Edith Sherman
performed brilliantly on the piano.

reception, and she was compelled by
the repeated and prolonged insistence
of her admiring audience to sing again
and again. Beautiful in person and
faultless in attire, the Crescent City

Residence Burned.

We regret to learn that the resi-
dence and barn of Mr. A. Cruise, two
miles North of Brookhaven, were com
pletely destroyed by fire last Saturday
evening. Mr.. Cruise was alone at home
when the fire occurred and in his ener-
getic but futile attempts to put
out the fire, neglected to save any of
his household effects. Along with the
barn were consumed several tons of
hay which it contained. The fire occur
ring when it did was peculiarly unfor-
tunate for Mr. Cruise, as he had no in
surance and would have closed the sale
of his farm on the following Monday.
Mr.. Cruise has decided to return North.
