 The annual exhibition by pupils of grade 8, Strong school, given at Polar Star hall Thursday evening, was a very creditable affair, and the teachers who have drilled the young performers in their several parts are to be congratu- lated upon the success of their pains- taking efforts. The hall was crowded to the doors, showing the interest of the public in educational affairs. The programme, which has been published in this paper, was long one and it was nearly 1O:SV before the last selec- tion was given. This entertainment was given under the auspices of the Strong School Alumni association and a goodly sum was realized, which will be devoted to further Improving the in- terior of the school building.

 It is doubtful if the members of the Twentieth Century Homing Pigeon club f1y their birds this season. Many of the birds have been sold and there are not enough members left to warrant con- testing for the prizes. D. R. Bradley who had eighty-eight fine birds, has disposed of his flyers, and so has George A. Cook. Both have moved this spring, and as the birds had been trained to re- turn to these homes they could not be flown from any other place, so their owners disposed of them. Jacob Fra lich. who won most of the prizes last year, has hundred good birds, but does not expect to fly them Perhaps next year conditions will be more fa- vorable and the club may be reorgan- tzed.
 At the Grand Avenue Congregational church tomorrow there will be preach ing at 10:3O a. m. by the pastor, Rev.
