Editor Pensacola Journal:
II was my pleasant privilege on the
18th inst to attend the closing exer-
cises of school No. AZ, taught by l. T.
Allen. Notwithstanding the fact that
the whole neighborhOOd has been in
the grasp of an epidemic of severe
colds, there was a gOOdly crowd Of
visitors. Promptly upon the arrival
OF Supt J. T. Diamond, the exercises
were opened. By request of those
present SUpt. Diamond gave a short
and interesting talk on the import
ance of practical education. Mr.
Diamond examined carefully all the
records Of the school and found the
pupils had made a daily average of
II 800 out Of 4 possible Is. Mr..
Diamond took great interest in testing
the knowledge of the pupils in prac-
teal arithmetic and was pleased to
say they were fully up with many
who were studying algebra.
At 1880 o'clock the ladies. who are
an Indispensable adjunct in every
good thing in this world. spread a ia
BILE that was good enough for a king
After all had paTtaken to their hearts
desire, Mr.. l. E. Allen, by request OF
the ladies, rendered Dixie and sew
eral other popular pieces on the vio-
lin, after which he gave his pupils a
farewell address, in which he admon-
ished them to pursue their school du-
ties, and never stOOp- down SO low as
to do anything for the sake of re-
Yenge. He then requested all the
pupils of No. 40 to come forward and
shake hands with him, and next in
vited all present who had been his
pupils in bygone days to come for
ward and do likewise, and To- when
the exercise was over, everybody in
the house had shaken hands with
him. except four.
Mr.. Diamond made a happy i'm
preston on the patrons of school No.
40, and it is predicted that he will
prove to be the right man in the right
place.

Hla WondsrfuI Invention.

Australia, as is well known, is in
tested with rabbits, a most destructive
and multltudinous pest Not long ago
man invented the following plan:
You go out into the field from which
the rabbits are to be removed. You
saw down tree, and on the slant Of
the stump you paint black spot.
Then you keep very quiet, SO that the
rabbits will come back from their bur-
rows and feed as usual When a
large enough number has collected you
clap your hands sharply. The effect
will be electric. The rabbits will jump
In haste for their burrows. At least
one Is sure to mistake the black spot
for his hole and make for 1t. Invaria-
bly, he will dash his brains out. This
process, repeated often enough, is
warranted to exterminate the rabbit
forever.
The reports do not say whether
there are any rabbits left in Australia.
