The first quarter was characterized by work of @ very high order, uni im the sec- ond quarter the faculty expect to make even better progress with the work in hand.

Capt. Arthur Brooks, company A, first sep- arate battalion, D. C. N. G., is now and bas been the military instructor for the past two years, and it was throash his ect |instruction that the company succeeded so well last year and made such a creditable appearance in President Cleveland uration parade. With its presoat roxt company is the largest in coanection ¥ ‘th | the High School system of Washington, and much too large to be ably handied by three | officers. Consequently the faculty have « cided that the year 1894 shall witne: formation of two companies at the Colored.

A debating society has recently been er- ganized, with a membership of fifty bo: and will be known as the Minor Literary | Association, the meetings being held ¢" Friday afternoon from 3 to 5 o'clock. The! officers of the society are: H. Lucas, pres- | ident, and 8S. Donaldson, secretary. The discussions are confined to the current po- litical and social subjects, such as “tariff reform,” “annexation of Hawaii" ani the “Monroe doctrine.” The boys regard the| association as a most excellent oppor‘untty | for the display of their oratorical talent, | and the faculty afford them every facility | in preparing themselves for the discussion | of those subjects that are brought before | the meetings. Another organization which seems to be very popular is the foot ball team, which is locked after by Mr. W. T. S. Jackson, a/ teacher in the school, a graduate of Am herst College and a member of her team. The boys have been unfortunate in obtain- ing a sufficiently large field near the school building for practice, but notwithstanding this drawback, and a very great lack of practice, the team mustered up “nerve” enough to chailenge the Howard University team, and on Thanksgiving was defeated by the score of 24 to 6. The game was stub- | bornly contested and was hugely enjoyed by the 500 spectators who were present. The members and their respective positions | are: Bruce, left end; Jones, left tackle; | Wilder, left guard; Hall, center; Budweel, right guard; Cardoza, right tackle; Payne, right end; Walker, quarter; Russell, left owed Blackwell, right half, and Smith, full | There are two glee clubs connected with the | school, one composed entirely of boys and the | other entirely of girls. The girls’ club is composed of the following: Misses Cole, Hamilton, Smith, Garret, Russell, Tudy, Dorsey, Johnson, Fanifer and Jackson. The| boys are Messrs. Hurley, Walton, Washing- ton, Wormley, Wright, Young and Patrick. These two organizations made their first | appearance at the first rhetorical Friday, | November 24, and acquitted themselves most creditably. The school does not intend to give an en- tertainment during the Christmas holidays. The management has alw: advertised two concerts during the year, but it is proposed to give only one this year—in the spring— to include a company competitive drill, a short drama and calisthenic exercises, in- terspersed with vocal and instrumental se- lections. | These entertainments are the only | means the school has of purchasing books | for their library, but as performances of | all kinds detract considerable interest from | the school work the authorities have de- cided to have as few as possible—one. —-——. 4 BOLD BANK ROBBERY. Fifteen Thousand Dollars Stolem at! South Bend, I The boldest robbery in the annals of crime in Indiana was committed yesterday about noon, the victim being the South Bend National Bank, one of the leuding | banking concerns in the state. The amount | taken was $15,900. From the manner in which the details of the theft were carried out it is certain that it was engineered by | a gang of experienced criminals who have been for some time shadowing the bank and its officers, and had become thoroughly conversant with their business habits. The South Bend National Bank is on North Michigan street, the First National being just north of it, an iron fence joining | them. Shortly after noon yesterday, while | Cashier Campbell was absent at dinner, Assistant Cashier Kelly, who resides in th rear of the building, was called to his front door by a man who said he wanted to sce him on some business. Just about this time a man approached | ‘ the bank building on the north and effected an entrance to the directors’ room, prying | open the window sash with a steel chi He then forced a heavy oak door, and was | immediately in front of the outer vault door was open; a tw: dle door had been closed by Ca: bell. This yielded readily, the c having, for some reason, failed va The mid- Work, and before the robber stood the counter | tray, containing between $2,000 and In the safe a pile of $14,000 In gold and many thousands in greenbacks were ar- rayed on shelves. The prime idea seemed to be to take as much as possible of the money in cat ithout arousing suspicion before the ron bers had plenty of time to make g¢0d ti escape. For this reason the counter tra with its loose thousands, was undisturb the robber confining his theft to tne s: from which he took $4,000 in yellow about all he could carry, and $11,900 in b No silver coin was touched. The vault was then closed, and the ysb- ber made his escape by means of a hack door before Assistant Cashier K again passed through the ui probable that but one man ent bank, he being protected by outside cuard who could easily have been they could watch closely thr plate-glass window the movement « one inside the building without att attention to themselves.
