THE SECOND GRADE is also divided into two classes, one being taught by Miss Ella Crary, who has charge of 46 pupils. She has been engaged at the North School only a short time, as she 1s geting as a substitute in the place of Miss Adrignce, who resigned. As she has had some experience, however, she finds herself perfectly at home as an instructress. The other division of this grade, numbering 44, is taught by Miss Hetty McKoon, who Is an excellent teacher. THE THIRD GRADE. Miss Mary Richard, from lllinois, feachgs this class, of fifty-eight. | 8he has been here but a short time, and has already shown that she isa good teacher. Her sister, Miss Minnie Richard, is the teacher of THE FOURTH GRADE, containing sixty pupils. This is Der first year here, and she has done very well. THR FIFTH GRADE is presided over by Mis Emma ‘Whitmore, who le sald to be & very good teacher indeed. She has been engaged in the Omaha schools for the last three or four years. Her class numbers 4. THE SIXTH AND SEVENTH GRAPES occupy one large school room to- gether. There are 18 members in the Hixih grade, and 22 in the Sev- enth. A p.rtull.hg-eclnssonhe two grades are in charge of Miss Barnette, and the remainder are un- der Professor Bruner. The Seventh grade has furnished two teachers from its ranks during the present torm, for the county schools. MIBS BARNETTE, who is well known to our citizens as the former teacher of gymnastics in the High School, until those grace-bestowing and_ healthful ex- ercises were abolished by the Board of Educatian, has been engaged as assistant to Professor Bruner since February last, having entered upon her duties immediately after her re- covery from injuries received by the accidental burning of her dress on New Year's Day. This is her first experience as & school teacher and she has succeeded admirably well. Sheis a bright, intelligent, interesting and cheerful young lady —one whose amiable disposition will invariably win the love and respect of her pupils. She is ad- mirably qualified for the profession of teaching, and will undoubtedly attain a brilliant success if she con- tinues in it. She Intends to leave for Boston, her home, Immediately at the close of the term,and it isa matter of uncertainty whether she will return. 1f she does not it will be deeply regretted by her many friends in this clty. PROFESSOR BRUNER, principal of this school, has been engaged in the Omaha schools for two years and a half. His experi- ence extends over a period of many years, having taught in Pennsyl- Vania for ten years, principally in grammer schools. His education was obtained in the normal schools of Pennsylvania. Heis an excel- lent teacher, being practical, studious, and very attentive to the interests of tlie 418 pupils under his charge. He Is In every respect eminently qualified to fill the posi- tion he now holds TIHE EXAMINATIONS. During the past week Professor Bruner has examined the primary grades of the Cass street schools. Miss Taylor's division of the first grade was examined on Wednes- day, and Miss Knowles' division was examined yesterday afternoon. Miss Hattie McXoon'’s division of the second grade was examined yesterday. The committee appointed by the Board of Education examined yes- terday the primary grades. The written examinations begin ‘with the 4th, 5th and 6th grades on Monday next. The school will close on Friday of next week. ? TilE SCHOOL-ROOMS, are weii lighted, well ventilated, and are in every respect cheerful in appearance. The reporter noticed that the blackboards gave evidence of & thorough practical instruetion in drawing, and the resulf has been that it hus brought out the talents of three or four pupils, who give promise of becoming artists, should they cultivate their talents in this direction. Especially worthy of men- tion in this respect are Adelbert Jones and Samuel Hess, who have adorned the blackboards of the school-room of the Sixth and Sev- enth grades with several very artistic crayon drawingsjin colors, of landscape scenery, flowers, etc., which the writer thought, upon en- tering the room, were the work of some skillfull painter. They are fully equal in execution to the #Scene on the Hudson,” which Mr. Mat Harris shot _the halance of Dr. Mc- ot e e folows st 76 yards—o0iio- Mr. Mitchell, of Douglas county, won the first prize.

By the inspiriting movement of a march from Faust, the scholars filed in to their seats, and the little ones especially attracted our atten- tion; their cheerful happy faces at- testing well their interest and pleas- ure in their part of the evening's exercises. An instrumental duett, by Misses Clark aud Everett, gave evidence of patient practice in the faultless rendition of a most difficult pieee. We awaited the next exercise with expectant pleasure, and were not disappointed. The “Jackdaw of Rheims,” as delivered hyMiss Nellie Terrell, was, to our judgment, one of the best recitations ever given by an Omaha pupil before an Omaha audience. She is an accomplished elocutionist, and has a graceful and pleasing address. 3. W. Petty won the first prize; Capt. A. H. Bogardus the second, and Yankee Hathaway the third. YBSTERDAY.

MissHall plays with that firmness and assurance that we have been wont to expect only from pian- ists of the sterner sex. The hearty greeting her from such an intelligent audlence was indeed a fair compliment to Miss Hall. «Coral,” an essay by Miss Adele Clark, a naturally intricate, and te most parsqns §1 unjnteresting suh- Ject, was treated with such abilify and originality as to readily enlist the attention and appreciation of her audience. The duo, from Heinweh, piano ang fyte, met with the hearty ap- preciation of al} the musical people present. the flute In conjunction with the positive tones of the piano make 3 most delightful combination, To concluge the literary portjon of the programme, we had the valedie: tory address of the graduate, Miss Melona M. Butterfield. As an original production of a finished graduate of Brownell Hall, this address was most creditable, with well conceived ideas elegantly ex- pressed, combined with an exten- sive knowledge of history. Miss Butterfield treated her subject— “Suecess, the reward of persistent effort’—in good style. In elosing she adverted to the relations exist- ing between the school and the faculty, and so expressive of kind- ly christian feeling and regret at their separations and so expressive of the sentiments of the school that we append an extract from the last of her address; “Dear schoolmates %o let us work. We shall be separated for s time. Some of you will return again to cccupy these desks and be ready to perform the work that has been assigned you, and to join in the games and pleasures of your mates; others will leave here never to re- turn to these familiar spenes, but perhaps to wander away qm new ones and to join in the works of others. Let us now bid good-by with the determination to put into practice the old motia iry, try again,” which more than any favoring tide “leads on to fortune and to fame.” DEAR PRINCIPAL AND TEACHERS —We turn to you to say farewell. We have been with some of you for the past three years, and during that time have looked to you for ad- vice and dml m:iee, which was al- ways kindly rendered. * * * While blddln: h’::'well to this Ins stitution we cannot forbear to pay our rmu tribute of respeetful re- gards to one to whom, perhaps, more than to any other the substan- tial comfort and consequent well- being and happiness of the members of our school-family for the four ey have been due. Her thoug] care for us, her ample, though lent, supply for our: wants, ‘patient Kkindness to each and every one, has endeared her to all, both teachers and pupils.

Qur thanks, our Joyi our highest and most m;'xpt'mwgm are hers, wherever she may be, ‘With much feeling Miss B. made her regrets to the Bishop in lan- guage full of kindly feeling and deepregard.

Butterfleld her diploma, she being the only graduate this year. A lively song from the school and a fine instrumental quartette by Misses Everett, Metcalf and Clark closed the exercises of the school. With the singing of “Gloria in Excelsis” and benediction by Bishop Clarkson, the commencement ex- ercises were concluded. More solid entertainment wasfur- nished to thase who were fortunate enough to remain, in the shape of ice cream, and cake. The school year just closed has been & most prosperous one. Sev- enty-six pupils are enrolled, over forty of whom are boarders. By the careful and efficient instruction of Miss Hall and her no less efficient corps of teachers, a most thorough and practical year of schooling has been given these young ladies. The Rev. James Patterson, Chap? lain, and his talented lady the matron, are indefatigable in the zea) for the projotion of the spirit- ual as well as temperate welfare of the school, and that their efforts are appreciated is evidenced in the feel- ings of high esteem held toward them by the entire school.

No plan, however, was ever devised for any definite future improvements, but a few pet friends of the members of the committee, were kept in a soft job all summer. When less than two-thirds of the grounds were cleared of brush, and a plain board fence was completed around the grounds, the three thousand dollars was used up. The templation of controling the disbursements of the balance—$22,000—appears now to be almost beyond ¢ven the powers of aldermanic gravity to resist. By dint of patriotic sacrifices of time and extraordinary zeal in pub- lic welfare, 8 committee with full powers has been regenerated, and is headed by a chairman of past ex- perience in the municipal employ- ment department. This committee propose tarush things, as they term it. " Already they are dickering for a survey or landscape, architect, and superintendent, so as to hasten the work for a few months and keep a few darling pets at work without loss of time, as they expressed it at the last Council pegting. Now, in the name of common sense, when will the city of Omaha cease this kind of piddiing and go about things a3 business men ought to? Why employ men to work under Coune commitiees hy not order the City Engineer to make a full tapographical survey and maps, and then get an experi- enced landscape architect, and lef the two devise plans with all neces- sary details for submissjon to the Council.
