ed yesterday morning for the school
year of 1S99-1900. After a most enjoy
able vacation of three months, the bell
which tapped at o'clock yesterday
morning called again to their studies
the pupils who go to make up the
scholarship of this districts public
schools. The enrolment yesterday was
between 1875 and 1900. At the end of
September one year ago the enrolment
was 1859. Superintendent Stapleton
believes that at the end of the present
month the enrolment will be 1,45O 1t
is eexpected that about 200 children
will attend the Ursuline convent school,
and that number will constitute the de-
crease from last year in the number
of public school children. The Bryan
and Lincoln buildings, which are To-
Gated on the east side, are the ones
that show the decrease. The new con-
vent school draws the great major
ity of its pupils from that section.

the following figures for the past four
