THE WORK OF THE SCHOOL. The St. Rose industrial school was established by the Sisters of Ubarity about fitteen years ago. A guod sister conceived the idea o! bav- ing a home for young orphan girly too old for the asyluins, where they might be tuaght tu be useful und Independent d with her private mMeuns established the institution. Mr. W. M. Galt und other valued eitizens of Washington wtouce look ap interest to the institution, and their kind donations plied the deficiencies when the good sister's uveuns .@ll short. At first it Was siarted vo 4 very smail scale, There were accommodations for only a few girls.
