Men apd Women of Books. At the session of the State historical society held in the chapel of the state university Tuesday evening, January 14, the followinf interesting historical sketch of the public schools of Omaha was read by Mrs. M, B. Newton of the Castellar schoot of this city: There is very little doubt that the first school in the city of Omaha was held in the basoment of . the old brick church erected by the Congregational society in the winter of 1855-6. The church stood on the lot which is now in the rear of the Young Men’s Chris- tian association building. A Mrs. _Smith came from New York state, rented the northeast base- ment room and there taught a private school. Very soon after, a Miss Sarah Rockwood, who afterwards became Mrs, Purple, and her sister, Miss Lucy Rockwood, had a private school in the old state house building on the corner of Ninth and Farnam streets. These ladies formed a part of the Governor Slade shipment of lady school teachers to the west. Almost from the first, there were more children in the city than could be accommodated inthe schools. Many of the early set- tlers wore people of education and culture and they organized classes among themselves for mutual improve ment in different studies. One person after another would instruct. People who were able sent their childrén vo St. Louis and other cities, but this involvea an expensive and tedious trip, Facili- ies for travel in those days were limited and therofore this was not a popular method. Others employed eachers in their homes. The children { those days, however, speak well in heir later development for the charac- er of tho inspruction received, There still remained a large class of children who demanded the Ameriean rmght of education. Omaha was incorporated in 1857, And was then divided mto three wards, A school director was elected from each ward. The first were A. D, Joues, G. C. Monell and Mr. Kellom, Mr., Monell had known Howard E. Kennedy in the east, and his services a8 superintendent of public instruction were engaged, Mr, Kenned, arrived in 1 and at ouce began his work, Ile found plenty to do. Nota building or a book could ‘the ety claim, He rented rooms in the state house and Noyember 1, 1849, after personally at- tending to every arrangement, opaned three schools, He, himself, taught in ne state house, mirwd by Mrs. Nye, A littie one story frame building on Thirteenth street, near Douglas, was in ‘charge of Mrs. Rust, and a similar .clr!ol on Cuming street, near the old military bridge, was taught by a Mps. Torry. Kor years these teachers did excellent work, The schools were crowded with pupils of all ages and at- 1 tainments. Efforts were made tofollow a system of grading, which Mr. Ken- nedy planned; but in schools like these were this was found to be impossible. The year of 1860 was an unlucky one for Gmaha schools. The financial troubles of the approaching war affected tne city greatly. Public sghool funds were exhausted. Classes formed at in- tervals by people whose occupations al- forded sufficient leisure were again re- sorted to. Mr. Kennedy left for the east, expecting to return soon and re- sume his work. but changed his plans later and did not return for several years. In that year Samuel D. Beais, a gentleman who still resides here, came from the east, rented rooms in the state house and orgamzed a private school, which he conducted for nine years. It was extensively advertised as the Omaha high school and, is mentioned by that name in the report of W. E. Harvey, the territorial commissioner, 1n his re- port for 1860. This report gives the number of pupils in all the schools of the city as 268, or a fraction over 50 per cent of the school population. From 1860 to 1863 there were no schools in the city, although a few ef- forts were made to establish them. In 1862 a Mr, McCarthy, the school direc- tor from the first ward, made applica- tion to the city council for permission to crect a school building on Jefferson square, which was granted. Rais- ing the bonds for that build- ing, however, was not easy, and sufficient money could not be obtained until 1863. Then the first school building ever owned by the city wus erected on the southwest corner of Jefferson square. It was aframe build- ing of medium size, containing at first only one room. Thisschool was erected under the personal supervision of B. E B. Kennedy, and was opened in Sep- tember, 1868, It was crowded to excess from tbe tirst day. The unhappy teacher first engaged was utterly unable to con- crol the crowd, and was dismissed at the end of the first month, A gentle- man was employed whose methods of discipline appear to have been original at least. 'He fashioned a wooden'in- strument somewhat like a_small spade with a long handle, and with this he ulterpately spatted and punched dis- orderly pupils, even at quite a distance from him, Hisreign lasted but a month, and he was suceeeded by a Mrs, Cooper, under whose care the school flourisned, In a very short time, the room was divided, '%mrobymwomadntiu a larger number of pugua and a Mr. Huteninson was employed as principal. The fol- lowing yeur, ground was purchased on Cass street, between Fourteenth and Fifteenth and the building moyed there where it remained until 1878 when it was removed to Burtand Twenty-sec- ond streets and is now used us a stablo. From this second start, Omaha schools have progressed steadily. In 1803 Lincoln’sdecision that Omaha should be the terminusof the Union Pa- cific railroad gave a greatimpetus tothe Er(mlh of the city and what had before een a struggling western village, be- came an ambitious town, School ac- commodations, however, were limited, and, in 1864, the Episcopal church or- ganized a school for young ladies out on Saunders street, in what is now known as the Saratoga district. Its first pupil was Mrs. Flemon Drake. Pupils who could not be accommodated in the public schools were thus afforded an- other chance for home education which they were mnot slow to grasp, The school was removed lo Sixteenth‘and Jones streets in 1867 and remained there in care of the Rev, J H. Dougherty until 1850, A beu&t;flul building was then erected on uth Tenth street and the school removed thither. It is under a board of fifieen directors, of whom the bishop of this diocese is president. Several small parochial schools were started about this same time by the Catholic societies of the town, ¥ F'rom 1864 to 1869 the schools were largely under the care of B. E. B. Ken- E“p“ of average ability to finish his igh school course at about the age of seventeen. It has proved a most satis- factory arrangement and 1s the basis of ihe school system of this day.

The buildings were inferior but the eare bestowed upon their in- mates was superior. Full records of these schools were kept and turned over by B. E. B. Kennedy to the board of education in 1872, but “these records have unfortunately everyone been lost. In 1868, the Catholic residents of the city made a request for a portion of the pubile school money to be used in main- taining the parochial schoots. This the board of directors refused to pay, even after an act to give. them 81,000 had been passed by the legislature. To compromise the matter, the directors rented the building owned by the Catholic church on Bighth street near Harney, paying $1,000 rent. This wise arrangement averted all trouble at that time and the rooms were occupied until the church society was obliged to retain them for its own use. Since then there has been little or no effort in this direction. There are now about eighteen hundred pupils enrolled in the twelve Catholic schools, including nearly two hundred students of Creigh- ton college. In 1868 the capitol was vacated and the legislature of 1869 presented the grounds® and builaing to Omana Boston Cowrier. THE FRIPPERIES OF FASHION.

John Evans was then the treasurer of the directors and, after consultation with his colleagues, refused to pay it on the ground of illegality, After several efforts to obtain it the board of regents resolved to sue the board of directors for $2,600. Early in 1870, the directors offered to pay the regentsthe sum of $2,000, on condition that the suit then pending should be withdrawn and the pupils from the city schoois who could pass examination should be admitted into the high school and that there posed seal, @ human arm and four human legs, Notwithstanding this “feed" the brute was grububly after @ bait when he was cap- ured, Jerry Givens, a young man of Martins- ville, Ind., while huntiug on islunds formed by the swollen river, came upon a large ball of snakes which trad been driven from their winter quarters by the water and the pleas- ant weather.

What makes her lovely in the sight of her fellows should be dear to her. Adorn- ment, that is, within certain limits. But often the eye is offended By the clever. the interesting woman—the woman whose intellect is far above the average—the woman, in fact, whose mind 15:s0 deiightful that one feels her body should boakin to it, and yet who 50 unmercifully neglects the latter that one is compelled to shudder at her want of taste us one gazes at her, To admire the beautiful is a common instinct implanted in all breasts. To desire it is an quired taste. And money is not everything where personal adornment is in question: as 1 have said before, the young girl—*"the young per- son,” as they eall her in Eng{uu!l——uull. if she -has'u sense of harmony born within her, s0 manage a slender i that she m to the passing eye as fair a vision as hersister, the million- aire, who moves languidly hither and thither through the crowd, clud in priceless silks and laces. Enough of dress; a far more important fault remains behind. ‘Lhe question of dress is in & measure trifling, when compared with that of manmers. Here comes the brusque girll who thinks ‘“honesty,” as she daesignates rudeness, a real virtue. To say what you think—to live in'an eternal **palace of truth”—is, she imagines, to be above the average, and to soar in a realm from which less virtuously minded peo- ple are excluded, This girl, as a rule, forgets that to be rude 18 not always to be honest. Better are the slovenly ones of the earth than these last. For though, us Theoprastus has it, “Sloven- lyness is a lazy and beastly negligonce of o man’s own person, whereby he be- comes so sordid as to be offensive to those about ham,” still it is not so un- forgivable a fault as the curlish deter- mination to square all the corners of life, and forbia a kindly curve any- where ‘Lhe clever girl, who poses as a social solon, and aspires to give wisdom to all men, is only—if she but knew it—a so- cial bore, *'A word to the wise is suf- ficient,” and therefore I would say to all would-be savautes that to place their cleverness too much en evidence is a fault scarcely to be condoned by the present generation. We all like to think ourselves clevor, ana to be put down and made to feel small by a chit of u girl raises wrath irrepressible in the bosoms of most of us, Of all girlish types, however, the 1oud and noisy one is among the most inex- cusable, The noisy girl makes a room all her own, She enters it with a loud laugh and leaves it with a scream meant fer merriment,butsuggestive only of dis- comfort to the unhapoy listeners. She is invariably a pursuer of men.
