The monotony of the Kitts-Seaman referee case, which has ~been in progress at this city for two months past, more or less, was relieved Fri/day afternoon by a spicy episode. Chas. W. Kitts, of counsel for Kitts, gave expression by a side remark to his opinion of Wm. Seaman, the other party to the case. . The latter retorted sharply, Mr. Kitts gave him tit for tat, and then the lie was given. The young attorney shied an inkstand at Seaman’s head, _ hitting him, and the latter sailed in with a chair, which he broke into several pieces in the effort to crush his adversary. They then clinched and fell, Mr. Seaman on top. , At this juncture Marmion Kitts, brother of Charles, and W. D. Long, of counsel for Seaman, interfered and the beldone. At the Churches.

Sheriff Tompkins returned from Plymouth, Amador county, by Friday evening’strain , bringing with him Jack McCarthy, who escaped from . the County Jail on the 20th of last month. A large crowd had assembled at the depot to gratify their curiosity, and the streets from there to the Jail-were lined with spectators. Jack did not appear in the least crestfallen, but raising his hat with much ceremony us he walked along shouted to the crowd, ‘Good eve, folks, good eve,” A crowd of men and boys tried to follow him into the Sheriff's office, but the door was closed in the face of most them, Jack did not. appear to be sorry that he was home again. He looked hard. is beard had grown out thick and long, ani his clothing was heavy with dust. Physically he has improved much since he went away. As he entered the antegruff voice through the thick doors, and with one accord strack up the chorus, “‘Home, Sweet Home.” Jack laughed vociferously at this welcome, enjoying it with as much gusto as the officers and newspaper reporters did. Withasmilethat spread fromear to ear, Jack retired tothe iron tank that was prepared for-his— reception, remarking as the door closed on him, ‘“‘There’s no place like home, pardner, and don’t you forget it.” . Yesterday morningthe TRanscrieT reporter called on the prisoner. “It's a long story,” he said iu reply toa request for a history of his late travels, ‘‘but I’ll give you: the main points of it. Smothers didn’t tell any of us that he was going to make a break till he came out of his cell with a stick of wood in his hand. We thought at first that he might be} crazy, but ashe let daylight through that wall in less than no time we concluded he had enough smartness for allofus. At first I refused to go, but when he and Cook were getting ready I couldn’t stay. We took a loaf of bread and a couple of biscuits with us that Smothers had saved from the regular meals. We slipped throngh the hole and passed out the gate in the rear’ wall. Going across the footbridge we went up High street, past Dr. Hunt’s, along the lane in front of Gil et‘ 8, then across the bedrock and into the brash behind the Hospital. When we got there the bell began to ring, and we lit out ondouble quick. We struck across below the Murchie, then headed for Greenhorn creek. The first night we slept in a canyon about 7 miles from town. “Next morning, which was Friday, we gut to Greenhorn, Cook was about used up and Smothers wanting to shake him said we were on Bear river which led right to Marysville where Cook had been wishing he was. Cook said goodbye and started off In a little whilsa he came back and told us he had found something to eat. We went along and came to a deserted orchard and filled up on green apples and.ate # little of the bread for relish, Then Cook struck down the creck-and that’s the lastwe saw of him. ~* : “Smothers and I went over towards You Bet, and half a mile from there met a lad named Miller, whose brothers we knew. ‘* ‘How far is the next town?’ we asked. ‘«*Half a mile’ says he, ‘but you don’t, want to go there. A couple of Sheriffs i is there, lookin’ for two escapes,’ he added with a wise wink. brash laid low till dark. Then being mighty hungry, fixed for a raid on a China camp, but a dog scared us off,‘‘Next morning Smothers gave me fifty cents and I went to a woman’s House and bought some grub. “We then went to Colfax. After dark Smothers hid out in the suburbs and I went in to buy more fodder. The first fellow I met was an officer, and I couldn’t dodge him. He appeared to know me and asked me to take something. Thinks I, ‘Jack you’re a goner.’We went in a saloon and took a sair.--I said good night aad started off, sure he would stop me. But he didn’t seem to suspect anything. I had bought a fifty. cent bottle of whisky, but didn’t dare to stop for grub. ““Sunday we started, again, buying something to eat at a house below town. We only made a few miles, having a big hill to climb. _ “Monday we went to Yankee Jim’s where Smothers gave me money and I bought some raw bacon and_ crackers. We also cdught a kid’and dressed it with a Smothers had along. We went down on the South Fork of the Am-rican, and cooked a square meal, We stayed there that night. “Tuesday night we camped jast; outside of Georgetown. “Wednesday morning Smothers parted company withme. He wauted me to help him in a certain ey and I wasn’t on it. “7 didn’t see him again till Friday, when we ran into each other about seven miles from Plymouth. The man said we could get all the work we wanted, but we informed nim. that we had retired from active’ j life, “Smothers had a fine . ‘een with him. He said he found it after : leaving — He _fhen said room the prisoners inside heard his . ““We tumbled and going int6 the . ~ hand before: mee meek: going to head for Lake Tahoe. ‘I went into town, and struck a hotel man for something to eat. While talking with him I saw his house was overrun with ants. I told him of my insect temedy,, and made some for him. It worked so well he advised me to go to peddling it around town. I sold three or four dollars’ worth Saturday, and that night got a job dealing faro, I had a bally stake and fell in with a corn doctor. We both got drunk, but he was the drunkest and I hal lots of fan with him. Sunday an officer came to me and acted very inquisitive. The man at whose house Smothers and I got our last meal had been in town and told him to lovk out for us, The officer asked me was my name MeCarthy. I teld him no. He wanted to know who and where my pal was. I said the only pal I had was a fellow I had piéked up on the road a few days before and traveled a ways with. ***Tnat man is’ Bill Smothers, I guess,’ said the officer, : “* *That’s hia name,’ E-said, seeing the-officer-was-posted. ‘I saw him way up north when he was arrested for killing Cummings.” “Finally ‘the officer said-he knew I was McCarthy, and Lunted for the scar on my neck. He couldn’t fini . it for my whiskers; and said he would let me go if told him where Smothers was. I told him all right. ‘Sanday afternoon he hirea a buggy ad I led him on a wild goose vhase all over the country huating for Smovhers, “When we got back that night hejsaid he would not lock me up, but not to leave town. I smelled a trick and tried to cut and run. 1 was brought up short. under watch, Frank ‘Faylor—and Bill Hodge, and some other fellows that used to live up this way, identified, me, it Seems, and [ was put in the covler next morning. It was a little wood. en affair, and a fellow that had been . put there a short time before actually had taken the door of its hinges and carried it down to a saloon to pawn it fora drink. He got the drink, then stole the door from: the saloon keeper and played it off at faro by betting it on the jack against four bits. [McCarthy told this in all seriousness but the reader can put als own value on it.—KEPorTER. } “I guess they didn’t want to lose the door again, so they put irons on my wrists and ankles till I couldn’t mové'and chained me to a ting in the floor. Aside from that they were mighty kind, giving me plenty to eatand treating me asa gentlemen should be treated. When I heard that Lije (Sheriff Tompkins] was coming down, I told them who Iwas. That’s how I came back, and [ am sorry I ever went away. The burglary charge can’t be proved on me, but I guess I’ve cooked my yoose by taking Smothers’ advice. That’s what bad company does, But, then,’’ he added meditatively, “I had a roaring pile of fun on the trip. Smothers is a brick, and the officers ain’t smart enough to get him alive.” McCarthy says he is quite certain Cook is hiding in Marysville. He had me WHAT THEY ARE DOING.

At a late meeting of the State Horticultural Society there was_exhibited a native peach, from Truckee in this county. A member said of it: “It is the genuine peach, only the native form. It isa shrub from 5 to 8 feet high. It is foand at’ Truckee, and was sent by Mrs. Dr. Curran. [Curless 7] It is a very interesting fact, it'seems to me, that this plant is found to be a native of California. It settles the question of the native country of the peach.

Notwithstanding all the bitter experience of the past in that town, and the fearful examples furnished by the amateur actors in Nevada City and other neizhboring boroughs, the new dramatic society st Grass Valley has concluded to face the fates and do or die. The announcement is received with alarm by the long suffering public all over the Coast. Even the Bee man forgets the horrors of “lickens for the time being, and gives vent to his harrowed feeling in this wise: Have the originators of this scheme ever considered the multiform dangers that lie before them? For instance, take the play of ‘Romeo and Jutiet.’"_. What a pandemonium will reign gver the distribution of characters! A fair, ethereal, spirituelle creature—an esthetical blossom of humanity which would be blown away. in a southerly breeze—thinks she should be entrusted with the part of the fair Veronese. She feels that ber willowy form, her -maidenhood. just merging into womanhood, with ail the halo of romance glorifying her and with the springs of love just bubbling from her heart, peculiarly fit_her for the character, “What, thattittle chit t*-snaps ao mature maiden of some thirty Summers in a confidental interview with the stage manager. . ‘‘Why, it takes a woman who has known what love is, whose soulful intensity has throbbed in responsive echo to the music . of that divine affection, to > faithfully . portray the all-overpowering yearning of the sweet Juliet.” Along comes the third to.scek the Jupiter Tonans of the green room— the ubiquitons, irrepressible stage manager—and this last of the trio prides hérself upon her elocutionary powers. Her enemies—-which include all tie other would-be Juliets —declare that any competent jury in the world would convict her of murder in the first degree upon the English language, and, besides that, her personal appearance more fits her for the, Witch in ‘‘Macbeth” than one of Shakespear's loveliest heroines. But this damsel insists upon her right, by reason of her native talent, to the leading character. ‘It is not beauty “alone,” she affectionately says to the presiding genius behind the scenes, ‘that is needed in the successful evolution of the varied emotions of a Juliet’s heart. It is that knowledye of the technique of the profession, that power to grasp all the hidden subtleties and bring forth the underlying beauties of the technique of the heroine, that ability to portray the ‘ever-charmIng, inconsistent feglings of a passionate girl’s hart; that can alone succeed in depicting a true Juliet.” And the Romeos! They are equally as troublesome.’ Que prides himself upon his shape, and declares that it would be a disgrace to allow knock-kneed , Jones or bow-legged Smith to appear in tights. Another is a fair elocutionist, and would be sorry to see the play butchered by . the ranting of this one, or the inaudiblemembling of that.—Butthe worst of all to. pacify is the weakeyed young man, who is the betrothed of the Juliet of the occasion. He won’t have any other fellow making love to, and squeezing and kissing bis girl. This latter nuisance, however, is generally etfectually squelched by the young lady herself, who earnesily declares her intention of being hugged through five long acts by the Romeo of the occasion, whether her fellow likes it or not. The result is that. the amatory portions of the drama are, by her enthusiastic assistance, made so tropical that a Bernhardt hug or an “Abbott kiss were. an icicle in comparison. Furthermore, the director hears from the lips of some pretty girl a suggestion that the selections should not all be of a serious nature, but that a dash of burlesque or opera bouffe should be added to enliven the entertainment. The man of experienge never asks for her reason. He immediately puts her down as a shapely girl, with an intense desire to avpearin a modified form of a ‘Santa Cruz bathing suit. Thus it wi!l be seen that the life of a direc or of an amateur dramatic entertainment is not a happy one.

The district borders Bear river, and is in the neighborhood of the iron blast furnace.’ The country is cut ap by dusty roads. The chaparral predominates now, since there has heen such a growing demand for timber. Yet the mine, by.a local demand for labor, has givén the farmers and woodmen plenty of work. Twenty-five children attend the school, °Miss Sarah Williams, the feacher, holds them well in hand, and they are improving. By accident she is their third teacher this term, her predecessors having resigned. The school is to be furnished anew, and the old shaky desks thrown aside. The pupils will theif have a firmer tablet for writing. The well water is not good. The shaft needs to be deepened, and the water from the upper seams stopped off. The school at Iron Mountain is taught by John —Utter,_formerly of San Benito county, It is one of the three smallest schools in the county. Its roll is thi:teen. This school has the most improved style of double desks,%nd is well furnished throughout, The rough planks supported hy log butts have been discarded forever, Even in this solitude fashion and progress have intruded.

The slate range of the neighborhood should give one without much trouble or cost. An additioval door in the rear wall of the schoo! would give better ventilation in warm weather, If people knew how disagreeable a school room is in warm weather, they would sympathise with the teacher and pupils» and labor to abate it. The schools above mentioned are all second grade and were examined. é Those pupils of the Indian Flat school most. proficient, were, Randolph Weber, Cora Butterfield, Thos, Cohn, Manuel Costa, Ada Eden, Charles Eden, and Maggie Cohn. Teachers should remit about onehalf of the usual lessons during the hot weather. Life and death do not depend upon the constant goading of the children. . Languor is natural at this season. Above all, teachers should be selective in what they teach. Much memorizing may be useless. How much we have had to unleara, In these days of reference books, so handy, we should not carry too much. Prints of every kind may suit the walls of a barber shop, but the sacred chambers of the mind need a severe simplicity of furniture,— Crowding bewilders the eye, and destroys the effect.

The monotony of the Kitts-Seaman referee case, which has ~been in progress at this city for two months past, more or less, was relieved Fri/day afternoon by a spicy episode. Chas. W. Kitts, of counsel for Kitts, gave expression by a side remark to his opinion of Wm. Seaman, the other party to the case. . The latter retorted sharply, Mr. Kitts gave him tit for tat, and then the lie was given. The young attorney shied an inkstand at Seaman’s head, _ hitting him, and the latter sailed in with a chair, which he broke into several pieces in the effort to crush his adversary. They then clinched and fell, Mr. Seaman on top. , At this juncture Marmion Kitts, brother of Charles, and W. D. Long, of counsel for Seaman, interfered and the beldone. At the Churches.

Sheriff Tompkins returned from Plymouth, Amador county, by Friday evening’strain , bringing with him Jack McCarthy, who escaped from . the County Jail on the 20th of last month. A large crowd had assembled at the depot to gratify their curiosity, and the streets from there to the Jail-were lined with spectators. Jack did not appear in the least crestfallen, but raising his hat with much ceremony us he walked along shouted to the crowd, ‘Good eve, folks, good eve,” A crowd of men and boys tried to follow him into the Sheriff's office, but the door was closed in the face of most them, Jack did not. appear to be sorry that he was home again. He looked hard. is beard had grown out thick and long, ani his clothing was heavy with dust. Physically he has improved much since he went away. As he entered the antegruff voice through the thick doors, and with one accord strack up the chorus, “‘Home, Sweet Home.” Jack laughed vociferously at this welcome, enjoying it with as much gusto as the officers and newspaper reporters did. Withasmilethat spread fromear to ear, Jack retired tothe iron tank that was prepared for-his— reception, remarking as the door closed on him, ‘“‘There’s no place like home, pardner, and don’t you forget it.” . Yesterday morningthe TRanscrieT reporter called on the prisoner. “It's a long story,” he said iu reply toa request for a history of his late travels, ‘‘but I’ll give you: the main points of it. Smothers didn’t tell any of us that he was going to make a break till he came out of his cell with a stick of wood in his hand. We thought at first that he might be} crazy, but ashe let daylight through that wall in less than no time we concluded he had enough smartness for allofus. At first I refused to go, but when he and Cook were getting ready I couldn’t stay. We took a loaf of bread and a couple of biscuits with us that Smothers had saved from the regular meals. We slipped throngh the hole and passed out the gate in the rear’ wall. Going across the footbridge we went up High street, past Dr. Hunt’s, along the lane in front of Gil et‘ 8, then across the bedrock and into the brash behind the Hospital. When we got there the bell began to ring, and we lit out ondouble quick. We struck across below the Murchie, then headed for Greenhorn creek. The first night we slept in a canyon about 7 miles from town. “Next morning, which was Friday, we gut to Greenhorn, Cook was about used up and Smothers wanting to shake him said we were on Bear river which led right to Marysville where Cook had been wishing he was. Cook said goodbye and started off In a little whilsa he came back and told us he had found something to eat. We went along and came to a deserted orchard and filled up on green apples and.ate # little of the bread for relish, Then Cook struck down the creck-and that’s the lastwe saw of him. ~* : “Smothers and I went over towards You Bet, and half a mile from there met a lad named Miller, whose brothers we knew. ‘* ‘How far is the next town?’ we asked. ‘«*Half a mile’ says he, ‘but you don’t, want to go there. A couple of Sheriffs i is there, lookin’ for two escapes,’ he added with a wise wink. brash laid low till dark. Then being mighty hungry, fixed for a raid on a China camp, but a dog scared us off,‘‘Next morning Smothers gave me fifty cents and I went to a woman’s House and bought some grub. “We then went to Colfax. After dark Smothers hid out in the suburbs and I went in to buy more fodder. The first fellow I met was an officer, and I couldn’t dodge him. He appeared to know me and asked me to take something. Thinks I, ‘Jack you’re a goner.’We went in a saloon and took a sair.--I said good night aad started off, sure he would stop me. But he didn’t seem to suspect anything. I had bought a fifty. cent bottle of whisky, but didn’t dare to stop for grub. ““Sunday we started, again, buying something to eat at a house below town. We only made a few miles, having a big hill to climb. _ “Monday we went to Yankee Jim’s where Smothers gave me money and I bought some raw bacon and_ crackers. We also cdught a kid’and dressed it with a Smothers had along. We went down on the South Fork of the Am-rican, and cooked a square meal, We stayed there that night. “Tuesday night we camped jast; outside of Georgetown. “Wednesday morning Smothers parted company withme. He wauted me to help him in a certain ey and I wasn’t on it. “7 didn’t see him again till Friday, when we ran into each other about seven miles from Plymouth. The man said we could get all the work we wanted, but we informed nim. that we had retired from active’ j life, “Smothers had a fine . ‘een with him. He said he found it after : leaving — He _fhen said room the prisoners inside heard his . ““We tumbled and going int6 the . ~ hand before: mee meek: going to head for Lake Tahoe. ‘I went into town, and struck a hotel man for something to eat. While talking with him I saw his house was overrun with ants. I told him of my insect temedy,, and made some for him. It worked so well he advised me to go to peddling it around town. I sold three or four dollars’ worth Saturday, and that night got a job dealing faro, I had a bally stake and fell in with a corn doctor. We both got drunk, but he was the drunkest and I hal lots of fan with him. Sunday an officer came to me and acted very inquisitive. The man at whose house Smothers and I got our last meal had been in town and told him to lovk out for us, The officer asked me was my name MeCarthy. I teld him no. He wanted to know who and where my pal was. I said the only pal I had was a fellow I had piéked up on the road a few days before and traveled a ways with. ***Tnat man is’ Bill Smothers, I guess,’ said the officer, : “* *That’s hia name,’ E-said, seeing the-officer-was-posted. ‘I saw him way up north when he was arrested for killing Cummings.” “Finally ‘the officer said-he knew I was McCarthy, and Lunted for the scar on my neck. He couldn’t fini . it for my whiskers; and said he would let me go if told him where Smothers was. I told him all right. ‘Sanday afternoon he hirea a buggy ad I led him on a wild goose vhase all over the country huating for Smovhers, “When we got back that night hejsaid he would not lock me up, but not to leave town. I smelled a trick and tried to cut and run. 1 was brought up short. under watch, Frank ‘Faylor—and Bill Hodge, and some other fellows that used to live up this way, identified, me, it Seems, and [ was put in the covler next morning. It was a little wood. en affair, and a fellow that had been . put there a short time before actually had taken the door of its hinges and carried it down to a saloon to pawn it fora drink. He got the drink, then stole the door from: the saloon keeper and played it off at faro by betting it on the jack against four bits. [McCarthy told this in all seriousness but the reader can put als own value on it.—KEPorTER. } “I guess they didn’t want to lose the door again, so they put irons on my wrists and ankles till I couldn’t mové'and chained me to a ting in the floor. Aside from that they were mighty kind, giving me plenty to eatand treating me asa gentlemen should be treated. When I heard that Lije (Sheriff Tompkins] was coming down, I told them who Iwas. That’s how I came back, and [ am sorry I ever went away. The burglary charge can’t be proved on me, but I guess I’ve cooked my yoose by taking Smothers’ advice. That’s what bad company does, But, then,’’ he added meditatively, “I had a roaring pile of fun on the trip. Smothers is a brick, and the officers ain’t smart enough to get him alive.” McCarthy says he is quite certain Cook is hiding in Marysville. He had me WHAT THEY ARE DOING.

It isa shrub from 5 to 8 feet high. It is foand at’ Truckee, and was sent by Mrs. Dr. Curran. [Curless 7] It is a very interesting fact, it'seems to me, that this plant is found to be a native of California. It settles the question of the native country of the peach.

Notwithstanding all the bitter experience of the past in that town, and the fearful examples furnished by the amateur actors in Nevada City and other neizhboring boroughs, the new dramatic society st Grass Valley has concluded to face the fates and do or die. The announcement is received with alarm by the long suffering public all over the Coast. Even the Bee man forgets the horrors of “lickens for the time being, and gives vent to his harrowed feeling in this wise: Have the originators of this scheme ever considered the multiform dangers that lie before them? For instance, take the play of ‘Romeo and Jutiet.’"_. What a pandemonium will reign gver the distribution of characters! A fair, ethereal, spirituelle creature—an esthetical blossom of humanity which would be blown away. in a southerly breeze—thinks she should be entrusted with the part of the fair Veronese. She feels that ber willowy form, her -maidenhood. just merging into womanhood, with ail the halo of romance glorifying her and with the springs of love just bubbling from her heart, peculiarly fit_her for the character, “What, thattittle chit t*-snaps ao mature maiden of some thirty Summers in a confidental interview with the stage manager. . ‘‘Why, it takes a woman who has known what love is, whose soulful intensity has throbbed in responsive echo to the music . of that divine affection, to > faithfully . portray the all-overpowering yearning of the sweet Juliet.” Along comes the third to.scek the Jupiter Tonans of the green room— the ubiquitons, irrepressible stage manager—and this last of the trio prides hérself upon her elocutionary powers. Her enemies—-which include all tie other would-be Juliets

—declare that any competent jury in the world would convict her of murder in the first degree upon the English language, and, besides that, her personal appearance more fits her for the, Witch in ‘‘Macbeth” than one of Shakespear's loveliest heroines. But this damsel insists upon her right, by reason of her native talent, to the leading character. ‘It is not beauty “alone,” she affectionately says to the presiding genius behind the scenes, ‘that is needed in the successful evolution of the varied emotions of a Juliet’s heart. It is that knowledye of the technique of the profession, that power to grasp all the hidden subtleties and bring forth the underlying beauties of the technique of the heroine, that ability to portray the ‘ever-charmIng, inconsistent feglings of a passionate girl’s hart; that can alone succeed in depicting a true Juliet.” And the Romeos! They are equally as troublesome.’ Que prides himself upon his shape, and declares that it would be a disgrace to allow knock-kneed , Jones or bow-legged Smith to appear in tights. Another is a fair elocutionist, and would be sorry to see the play butchered by . the ranting of this one, or the inaudiblemembling of that.—Butthe worst of all to. pacify is the weakeyed young man, who is the betrothed of the Juliet of the occasion. He won’t have any other fellow making love to, and squeezing and kissing bis girl. This latter nuisance, however, is generally etfectually squelched by the young lady herself, who earnesily declares her intention of being hugged through five long acts by the Romeo of the occasion, whether her fellow likes it or not. The result is that. the amatory portions of the drama are, by her enthusiastic assistance, made so tropical that a Bernhardt hug or an “Abbott kiss were. an icicle in comparison. Furthermore, the director hears from the lips of some pretty girl a suggestion that the selections should not all be of a serious nature, but that a dash of burlesque or opera bouffe should be added to enliven the entertainment. The man of experienge never asks for her reason. He immediately puts her down as a shapely girl, with an intense desire to avpearin a modified form of a ‘Santa Cruz bathing suit. Thus it wi!l be seen that the life of a direc or of an amateur dramatic entertainment is not a happy one.

The district borders Bear river, and is in the neighborhood of the iron blast furnace.’ The country is cut ap by dusty roads. The chaparral predominates now, since there has heen such a growing demand for timber. Yet the mine, by.a local demand for labor, has givén the farmers and woodmen plenty of work. Twenty-five children attend the school, °Miss Sarah Williams, the feacher, holds them well in hand, and they are improving. By accident she is their third teacher this term, her predecessors having resigned. The school is to be furnished anew, and the old shaky desks thrown aside. The pupils will theif have a firmer tablet for writing. The well water is not good. The shaft needs to be deepened, and the water from the upper seams stopped off. The school at Iron Mountain is taught by John —Utter,_formerly of San Benito county, It is one of the three smallest schools in the county. Its roll is thi:teen. This school has the most improved style of double desks,%nd is well furnished throughout, The rough planks supported hy log butts have been discarded forever, Even in this solitude fashion and progress have intruded.

The slate range of the neighborhood should give one without much trouble or cost. An additioval door in the rear wall of the schoo! would give better ventilation in warm weather, If people knew how disagreeable a school room is in warm weather, they would sympathise with the teacher and pupils» and labor to abate it. The schools above mentioned are all second grade and were examined. é Those pupils of the Indian Flat school most. proficient, were, Randolph Weber, Cora Butterfield, Thos, Cohn, Manuel Costa, Ada Eden, Charles Eden, and Maggie Cohn. Teachers should remit about onehalf of the usual lessons during the hot weather. Life and death do not depend upon the constant goading of the children. . Languor is natural at this season. Above all, teachers should be selective in what they teach. Much memorizing may be useless. How much we have had to unleara, In these days of reference books, so handy, we should not carry too much. Prints of every kind may suit the walls of a barber shop, but the sacred chambers of the mind need a severe simplicity of furniture,— Crowding bewilders the eye, and destroys the effect.
