The commencement exc of the Deaf and Dumb institute yesterday after. noon wore attended by about two hundred people, most of them from the city. The programme rendered was a thoroughly interesting one to all and a novel one to many. It consisted of class exercises by the scholars, well calculated to show the advancement which they have made in the diflerent branches of instruction. The affair took place in the cosy little chapel in the main building of the institute. The salutatory or opening address was- made by Ernest Clark, a youngman, who has learned to talk English quite fluently throngh the ne oral method He acquitted himself admirably. The rest of the programme was as fol lows: Salutatory Ernest Clark. School Exercise—Primary sign class .. Alma Thompson, Bertie Bauman, 0'Brien, Jane Lockhatt.

Ella Cornish The third ex e was particularly in- teresting, consisting of an exhibition of the mauner in which the power of speech was developed in the |l|oul' and dumb. The method is known as the oral method and has been very successfully tanght at the institute by Miss Otic Plum, who ap- pears to have a special_aptitude for that sort of work. The pupils are taught to read different words from the lips of their teachers, and then by reproducing these same motions of the lips, to reproduce the words. As the scholars become more advanced, they are given whole sen- tences to pronounce, and flnally, with practice, their proficiency amounts to a complete mastery of the fanguage the use of which nature had at first d nied them, Al this was very prettily il- lustrated in_the class exercise by the pupils named above. Another interesting feature of the pro- gramme was the aural exercises by the aural class. This branch of instruction is clearly akin to that named above These pupils are taught to hear instes of to talk. In order that a pupil may ke eligible to this class, he or she must pos- $3 certain germs of the power of hear- ing which may, for one reason or another, have been for years latent. The object of the system is to develop these germs of heaving. This is ac- complished by means of yarious instruments and A system of drilling and practice which™ involves in- finite pains. | the members of the class exhibited proficiency, many of them remarkably so. The second part of the programme consisted of singing and pantomime exer- cises,* T inging was led by one or two of the teachers, and the deaf mutes “signed” it at the same time. One of the most laughable things on the programme was the pantomime, “The Fiery Ordeal,” by one of the deaf mute professors, K. L. Keed. This represented th er of a youth who was given to stealing hay from his neighbor. thieving career was suddenly brought to a close by the latter, who laid in wait for the robber, and caught him curying off 2 huge bundle of hay “on his back. The owner then tiptoed up to the retreating thief and set the. hundle of hay on fire, For several moments the un- fortunate youth had a vigorous taste of that land in which Henry Ward Beech believeth not. All this ‘was clea wonderfully shown iu the pantomimic gestures of Profe Reed. Similar Sxcreises by his classes illustrated the marvellous degree of proficiency n the communication of ideas by gesture and expression which may be be ‘attained by the little deaf and “dumb pupils. The exhibition by Miss Lowsa Dixon was especially fine. The exel were brought to a close by the r in the sign language of the Prayer”’ by a class of girls, and igibly deliv valedictory ad- Ella Cornish One feature of the curriculum this year was the instruction in_drawing given by Miss M. L. Divine, The results of the year's work were spread out on the walls in the shape of drawings and water color paintings by her pupils. The drawings in some cases showed remarkable pro- ficiency and artistic skill in the tr ment of the varioussubjects. This branch of the curriculum under the efficient direc- tion of Miss Divine, who i8 a thorough art student herself, has developed into something of great importance. Her classes include every scholar in the insti- tution. During the year just closed the mnsti- stution hus come into possession of a fine collection of stuffed birds, or animals which were put up by Professor ¥.J. Brazee, an experienced taxedermist now connected with the institution. The col- lection is enclosed in a handsome glass and walout case made by some of the pupils of the mstitution, during their ieisure moments, COMPASS AND SQUARE, The Grand Lodge of Nebraska Masons in Sessioun In Omaha.

They will be recaived by committees appointed for that purpose and shown to hotels, the leading ones of which have offered a reduction in rates to all delegates.

Wilcox, familiarly known as “the “Mendota carpenter,” delivered a very interesting address last evening in the earpenter’s hall, There was a very: fairattendance, Among other things the speaker said that everything that is produced ninst be produced by the industry of the laboring classes, and ho thought it was about timo that the ‘Broducers took steps to see that they got their fair share of the fruitsoff their industry.

They, must not forget that it was the workingmen who reully made the laws, and if the laws are found to be wrong they should &0 to work and sce that they are repealed and that others are made that will do justice to-all men. He could not understand why a brick- layer should receive $5.00 for nine hours’ work and a carpenter only receive $2.50, except that the ttgr were not well organized. He strongly urged upon them the necessitwoficiiteting a strong organization.

SRS LOGAN WILL COME, Black Jack Will Visit Crete on July Fifth, To the Editor of the Bre: Noticing in some of the papars that there wasa doubt about General Logan being at Crete on July 5, of this year, I have to say that the matter of getting him here has been ' left entirely with Rov, Robert Nourse, of Washington, D. C., and old friend and pastor of General and Mrs Logan. Nourse will also be present and give his celebrated lccture on “John and Jhonathan,” About a month ago Dr. Dunning and Myr. Nourse wrote me that they had scen Logan, who, with Mrs, Logan, would come to Crete. I have had considerable correspondence with them, and no doubt has been st upon this Senator Plumb of Kansas has also secured Sena- tor Logan for Ottawa, Kansas, for Jul?' 3, and he comes from there to Crete. After seeing the notice in the Journal of last Saturday I telegraphed to Rev. Robert Nourse, asking him to see Logan and let me know. To-day I got the following letter from him: O¥¥ICE OF THE PUBLIC OPINION, WaAsH muroN, D.

The feeling, how- ever, was rather heavy, owingto the continue ance of better erop conditions in the waest, and after advancing a fraction it settled be- low the opening price. Corn was w little lower, owing to the large receipts, while pro- vistons were steady. It {s a dull, dragging market. Nobody evidently wanted to buy mntich, while atone time there was little pres- sure to sell. There were some eable advices which reported guite serions damages to the Freneh crop. Field Lindley had word from Antwerp that some uncasiness existed there as to the crop prospects to the weather. The tone of the trade, though, was weak, and July sold down to T8%e, but withoutany especlal trade occurring. From this point someadvance was made, but it was made in a spirit sort of way. Outside orders wero limited. Considerable wheat has beel changed over to August in the past few days, and if there have been hopes in any quarter that a squeeze might occur in July, they geem to be dismissed. July opened at T4q, advanced_to 7d'ge. dropped to TS¥ge, and closed at T8¥c. ProVIsIoNS—Provisions were fairly active on speculative account, but the market was weaker. Prices kept within a narrow range and closed_at inside fignres, showing a ro- duction of 5¢ on mess pork and lard, and 2ig0 on short ribs.
