CONTEMPLATING IN PRISON.

The astonishing thing about the lat est development of counterfeiting is not that the men in Moyamensing prison say their lawyer advised them to go into the business, because two lawyers have already been convicted of partici- patton in a counterfeiting scheme with which this one was connected. but tha [ the men were able to manufacture s20 bills in prison. There they engraved q the plates, the presses were carried to them piecemeal and put together and operated in their cells. and there they carried on thsir criminal business. H. licit stills have been found in jails, but the manufacture of counterfeit money has thus far been done outside. The supervision of prisoners and the in spection of their cells cannot be very thorough in Moyamensing York Journal of Commerce.

A little dust from his fingers settling on the gutta percha while making joint in submarine cable would involve the sending out of another ship to discover and repair the leakage. This work might occupy months and involve the expenditure of thousands of pounds.

TEMPE.

The graduation exercises of the Tempe public school, Friday night May 24th, closed the Tempe schools for this season. The exercises were in- deed interesting and the numb IFS well presented. The stage was beautifully decorated with flowers A large as- semblage of friends of the school was present.
 The programme was opened by the "Salutatory," by Mona M. Kingsbury. She delivered it in mastery and graceful manner, gaining the hearty applause of the audience. She review ed the class pleasant relations to the Faculty and other members of the school. She was profuse in expressing compliments for her class to the teach srs, who have ever been kind and for ward in helping them.
 Rev. Martin Bird rendered a solo on his cornet. the graduates gracing the stage at the back.
 A recitation. Jamie" was next rem dered by Ora Lee Odell. She de- picted the dramatic scenes vividly and certainly did we'll It was long but she never faltered in her delineation of the characters in her selection.
 This was followed by song Turkish Turks" in which about eight members of the class were dressed in Turkish costumes. With Turkish mannerisms they acted out the song in comic gts- lures, which elicited much laughter from the audience.
 The Turkish Turks" was followed by medley by the graduating class Sn which as each was well started in some tragic, dramatic or comic recita- tion some other member of the class entered and went directly in front of the one speaking and started on her spiel" Often the one interrupting would make his recitarion in such way as to make an intensely funny re- sponse to the one just preceding who had a tragic piece.
 The sixth number on the programme was a drill in which the girls of the class participated in Delsarte per formance. The girls then retired to dhe back part of the stage an1 the boys of the class. with canes tied up with ribbons. entered in a buresque drill. after which the boys and girls paired dor a grand march. which was very pretty.
 The next on the programme was a cantata, The School Festival" This was the most conspicuous number on the programme and by far the pret- tiest. The party entered the stage singing song. lone Greenleaf Was drowned queen of the festival. The cantata represented the various mem- bers of the class in their school work, The queen crowned several of the party for honors received in their school work. To add spice to the pre-

sentation of the cantata several really funny things were participated in by
 several of the boys. who represented
 The Lazy Boy" "The Selfish Boy"
 etc. These wanted to join the festivi- | ties. All resolved to do better and
 when they were presented to the queen
 were again received in full standing In | the party. 4 number of the solo parts sung by Ions Greenleaf were | loudly applauded She has an excel | lent voice and the audience greatly en- joyed hearing her, Laura Schmidt played the piano for the songs of the cantata.
 The valedictory speech was delivered | by lone Greenleaf, who stood the highest in all class work of her class. She delivered 1t well and was heartily applauded.
 Principal G. M. Frzzell then pre- sented the class for graduation in clear. well chosen words. mentioning indvid- ual instance worthy of special com mendation. He reviewed the growth of the school comparing it's numbers sev- eral years ago with it's numbers at present. Three years ago the first graduating class consisted of three members. the class of 1901 consisted of sixteen.
 Samuel Brown. president of the school board, then with a short well di rected address. gave the diplomas 10 ths happy recipients.
 As the class closed its exercises it gave it's class yell and the class ceased to belong to the public school. The members of the class are the fol- lowing: Martie V. Corbell, Mona M. Kingsbury.
