Some New and Ioteresting Facts About Them, The Scholars and Teachers — The School Fands, A Ber reporter called upon Supetin- tondent H.M. James Saturday and gleaned Information which will probably parents and some prove good reading for friends of education, Omaha has fourteen public schools, In- c'uding the High school; each school sit- uated in what may be called a achool dis. telct. On February 1st, 1885, there were five thonsand seven hundred pupils en- rolled, with an average dally attendance of four thousand two hundred and sixty- seven, On February 1st, 1884, the scholars enrollod wers five hundred less thanthoseof the past month ot March. The number of teachers employed, exclusive of the superlitendent, Mr. James, and of two extra teachers of night schools, Is one hundred and thirteen. In this est!- mate, which is correct, 1t should be ro- membered that the different sectarian and public schools are not Included, which would probably Increase the number of school children of Omaha to about nine thousand, Tae school buildings are carefally con- structed, and those lately erected are sapplled with all modern coaveniences, and especlal care was taken to Insure proper light and ventilation. They are fairly supplied with apparatus; particu- larly s the high school. All are well filled up with blackboards for demonstra- tlons and drawing. THE COURSE OF STUDY consiats of the ordinary English branches of & good common-school education, es- pecial care belng taken to teach those branches useful in practical life. In the high school they teach the higher Kag- lish branches and Latin and Greek, but no modern or romance langvage. The superintendent thinks this should te remedied, particularly as regards Ger- man, because e0 large an element of this section’s population Is German that a knowledge of that language is absolutely essentlal {n the affairs of every day life. Examinatlons are oral and written. The oral are dsily conducted by theteachers at each recitation. At the end of each term the superintendent prepares for the teachers ries of questions In writing, which they write on the blackboards and these the pupils answer or attempt to answer in writing, Another claes or rort of examinations are ‘Teachers’ Meet- ings,” which are held once ortwice In each month. At these teachers gather; some- times the superintendent joins with them., School hours are from 9 a. m, to 12 m., and from 1 p. m, to 4 p. m. For puplls of first and second years one-half of an hour less comprises the school day. Two recesses each day. THE SCHOOL FUN The money realized from the liquor tax keeps the school funds sufficlent to maln- tain these expensive institutions and to employ good teachers at fine ealaries. Omaha teachers get notorlously good pay for thelr services, and persons from sur- rounding states are always ready and anxious to got a position in Omaha schools. During the fiscal year whichended March 1884, the recelpts of the board of educa- tion were $210,736 77. The expenditures were $195,942.08. This gzave a balance on hand March 1st, 1884, of $14,794 9. From Mr. James the reporter learnsd that special attentlon is glven to draw- ing, peomanship and musle. Numbers of skilifully carved articles, embraclng everything from a medallion head to boxes of tools, bunches of grapes, chains, birds and jumping-jacks, all of which show more than ordinaryartlstic skill and ingenulty,were seen. In thematter of pen- manship the old practice of permitting teachers to serve, no matter how badly they wrote, has been abindoned, and good handwritlng is now a slne qua non for success in securing a certlficate. Superintendent James spoke with earn- estness upon the subject of tardiness— the greatest source of annoyance the teacher has to encounter, He declared that it is due, he thinks, to the fact that parents and guardians do not stop to es- timate the evils that flow from it, not only to the tardy pupil, but the rest of the class, and to the teacher. He Is very desirous that parents would join with him in curing this most troublesome evil. Another question that s preeented is that of corporal punishment, Mr. James took out his book and showed the Bk representative that in 1882, during the first two months of the term, there were 215 cases of corporeal punlshment. My, James {s opposed to it as a general thing. He then went on to show that durlng the Jast seven months ouly seven cases had been reported, which shows that prasti- cally It is nearly abollshed. Mr. James rel’es much more on the aid of parental inflaence than the work of the rod to make a boy or girl, who s inclined to be of ugly behavlor, a good boy or girl, It was learned when the reporter asked as to the qualifications of teachers in Omaha schools gensrally, that the em- ployes are better in this respect than formerly. This ts attributablenot only to the fine salaries pald which command the best order of ta'ent, but to the further fact that the search for teachers is not confined to natives or resldents of Omaha,although to some extent effort has beenat times made to eccure entirely the services of Omaha paopla. Mr, James thioks the best way to se- cure good children at school and to en- force good dlscipline Is to secare the aid of parents; to have parents back up the teacher in his effort to bave diselpline In the school. The superiatendent has the power, snd often exerclaes it, to suspend a pupil. This Is found to work well, be- cause it impresses the child and the parent also much more than a ‘‘spank- ing,” which is soon forgotten. The teachers now employed in Omaha’s public schools come from the varlons sec- tions of the union, as is evldenced by the fact that there arc among them former students of Dartmouth, Geneva, Oberlin, a Virginia semioary, Cornell, Vassar, Oswego snd even away out yonder at Laramie lo Wyoming. ““You are welcome, slr; urge upon the people to put good men on the bosrd of education,” sad Mr, James, as THe Bee man thanked him for his courtesy and left, e ——— Do not be deceived; ask for and take only B, H.

The eat daet was a masterly absurdity,sand the polygot duets, a de- lightful and harmonions blending of & swoet and cultivated soprano with a rich oontralto voics, completely captared the audience.

Father O'Connor, The ball given by he Avclent Order of Hibernlans, St. Parrick’s evening was text of several sermous in the Catholic churches of this city Sunday. The fact that danciog was expressly forbldden in this vlcoriate durlng Lent, and public balls at all times, and the vlolation of that rule of the church by a prominent soclety, brought largs audlences to the several Catholis chuyches in anticl- pation of a vigorous denuncia- ofthe act, At ths Cathedral Rev. Fr. C’Connor denounced tha dance in strong language, and the great scandal glyen the church and the minister. ‘‘Befora speak- Ing on the subject of scandal,” sald the reverend father, *‘I wish to call your at- tention to what ecandal ls. St. Thomas says scandal Is any word or act which fs I'kely to lead another Into sin. Such an act is not complete unt/l it {s evident ontslde of the mind, St. Thomas illus- trates this by ssying supposing a line of rectitude; all on one side a'e dolng what thay ought to do, thoee on the other are transgressing the law, and indu b, their acts people to croas the linc; this is scandal. Our Lord said in ccnnection with scandal, and in reference to little ones who are ba- ing drawn away by people 1t were ‘*better thatsuch a one had a millstone tied about his neck and that he were cast Into the depths of the gea.” When men sought Christ to put him to death he sald, ‘‘I'm the one, let thoso go free.” This In- cluded even him who betrayed him, and when He waa craclfied, he said, ‘‘Father, forglve them, they know not what they do.” 1f He sald this of those who had done wrong. what must we think of the saying, ““Woe to him who shall scandalize one of these little cnes.” Scandal Is that which may bring others into sin. 1t interferes with the directlon of God. He has directed so as to keep men fnslde the bounds of rectitude, and whoever acts %0 as to lead men beyond those bounds dlearranges God’s order. This Is a mortal sln, There are men who are not satisfied with destroying thelr own souls, but wish to destroy those of others. Thess give the worat sort of scandal, If a man be a bellever in God's church and yet take souls away from it, it would be better for God to take him and plunge him into perpetual misery than for him togooninsin, Other people scandal- ize not by act but allusion, advice, and making othera dally with sin until they commit it. Often these thus drawn into #in do not know it {a sin, The devil has difficulty to find a proper agent but if he finds & man, woman or zoeicty that acts for him as well as his agent could do, he leaves them alone and troubles himeelf no further. You may commit any sort of sin, It is sin, and you are across the line, Danclng serves no good purpose, It 18 condemned by the church. Aithough St. Patrick’s festival is not one of obligation, the people ob- serve it religlouely in honor of God and in honor of the patron salnt of Ireland Balls are permitted at no time during Lent. Last Sunday two gentlemen came as a committee from the northern parlsh and asked if anything had been sald in this church that morning sgalnst an en- tertainment that was to be given on St. Patrick’s n'ght by the A. O. H. 1 sald that I had never heard the soclety meationed In the church and that 1t was left to the people of this congregation whether they remained In private parties or particlpate tn the dance. If anyone in this place did not know what he was doing, 1t would be well to investigate if they are In their right mind. They had danclng, contrary to the directions of the church; in oppositfon to the pastors of the church, who have a right o direct them, and these men who led others into it do not care if they are lost. With fuil knowledge they brought them into sin. They arc glving scandal; are dolng the devil's work and bringlng people into sin. You will not escape punishment of God because not yet chas- tised. Wce to him who leads the man off the siralght path, draws innocent peo- ple away to wander in the desert. Some of you have bsen the cause of the moral ruln of your nelghbor. This is scandal indeed. Those who have done so had better nrake reparation for the horrible insult offered to God. Ycu have num- bers of sins to repent of in this time of lent—to go down In sackeloth and ashes and sk God to forgive and spare you, While the church has prayed these men have insulted the saint and the name of d's eaint, It ls horrible to see the picture of the salnt and the pzople danc- Ing around it. When the Jews thus ascted, the entlre nalion were made wanderers on earth 8s a punlshment, Why should not we bs fearful of like punishment when our nation go In and thus iusult God? Irishmen sra not ex- actly wanderers, but if people here and thess men and women who believe in the church of God, yet take souls from the church by scandal, it would be better that you be plunged into misery. You who are gool Catholics try to escape from these dangerous men. bove all, never make St. Patrick’s feast a pretext for of- fending God. If you do wrong no mat- ter what the coneequences are. If vou craclfy God you will be punished. You who are the sons ¢f God must atene for the offence, Saratogs Notes, Baratoca, March 24, 1885, (Quite a number of the Saratoga people attended the song service at the Third Congregational church Sunday evening, A very p'easant service was held copsist- ing of selections rrom the Gospel Hymus and a short address from the pastor, Me.

THE BURLINGTON EXTENSION, Regarding the rumored extension of the Burlington westward, the San Fran- clcen Chronicle has the followlng to say: ‘A special agent of the Chicago, Bur- lington & Quincy railecad, now In th's city, was recently questioned by a Chron- {cle reporter regardiry the rumored in- tention of his road to build a new linc from Denver to Ogden to compete with the Ualon Pacific. The reporter was told that the company has made several attempts to secure concesslons from the Union Paclfic, and, having failed In each instance, It was qults prob- able that the extension would be made. There have been several surveys made through Colorado and Wyomilng, aad no one need be surprized at any time to hear of the beginning of operations on some one of the propos:d lines. For years the Burlingten kas been coatidered a meraly local line, although the business on the mala road and its branches has been very heavy. Itis a great disadvantage west of Denver at present, asthe connection —the Denver and Rio Grande—is a nar- row-gauge road and all traffic must be transferred at Denver. Besides, it has to take busines by the way of Puaeblo, which makes its line to Salt Lake Olty and Ogden considerably longer than by the Union Pacific. It is, therefore. believed to be the intention of the Bur- lington to secure a line In every way equal to the Union Pacific by building a short cut from Denver or a point east to a connection with the Denver & Rio Grande Western, and then clther lease or purchase the latter and transform {t into a standard-gauge'road. If this route can be secured it would enable the Bur- lington to meet any competition the Unlon Pacific might make on Ca'ifornis, Colerado or Utah businees,. When such aroad s opened the shippers of this const will ind themselves greatly bene- filed, as the Burlington 18 well known as an enemy of pools and railroad combina- tlons of all kinds.” e —— His Wicked Little Brother, Charles J.
