Clifton Schools.

The North Clifton schools will close very successful term tomorrow While the average attendance was cut down by the floods, the attend ance during the entire term was reasonably satisfactory, and the gen. eral progress made by the pupils was in excess of that of any other term. The average daily attendance until the flood of JaL Lnuary 10th was 2SO, and under the ne| law the appropriation tor next te7m will be made on that basis.
 As an evidence of the regard in which the fteachers are held by the trustees it is only necessary to say that they Ihave all been engaged for another year, which will be gratify- ing news to the. pupils who attend the school and also to their parents. trustees acted wisely, as the teachers and pupils have formed an attach ment for each other and are mutu- ally iEfterested in the work, and no doubtf will make better progress next seasot th that during the past year.
 Onf Monday last, in pursuance of thelf annual custom, the Arizona cop pericompany, through President Col qu1Houn and Director Gill, distributed pr rfzes to the pupils making the best average in attendance, department 1atn scholarship. In ali $75 worth of Handsomely bound books were dis triB6ted among the pupils, which will long be prized as mementos of happy school days spent in Clifton.
 During t6e>past five or six months art lessons were introduced in all departments by\Miss Bostic, and many of the pupils. have made re- markable progress. Miss Bostic has made a speciality of art, and music, and taught those branches exclusively before coming to Clifton, but here her duties have been confined Prin- cipally to grade work. But now that a start has been made, and the pupils have shown such keen interest in the work, it is to be hoped that arrange ments can be made whereby art and music may be taken up as regular studies.
