OUR SEWING DEPARTMENT. INPOPULAR AND CONTRARY -—WHAT THE R GE WOULD BE COMPLAINT. DI- ULT OF IMOUS Perhaps the hardest worked teach- ers in the public schools, are those in the sewing department. With a con- trary and unpopular sewing directress, the teachers are having a hard time. It is not supposed that Superintend- Cook is aware of the contrary and arbitrary actions of this sewing direc- tress. The program of this depart- ment is the most ‘‘zig zag’’ instrument that one would desire to read, and whenever a teacher gos to the one who has charge of this depart- ment she is either insulted or she is told that such and such a change can not be made, although it is for the best interest of the schools. There are several young ladies in this de- partment who stand high in this com- munity and who are entitled to con- sideration. Asasample ofthe arbi- trary action of this uirectress the BEE will give a few. A teacher who re- sides on “eredian Hill 1s sent either to South Washington or in the neigh- borhood of the Government Printing Office, A teacher who lives in South Washington where she had previously taught and made a record, she is sent near the jail and the teacher who lives in that vacinity or in the northeast, i sent entirely out of the reach of cars. The report is that the directress ef sewing has umed the authority to make an assistant out of one of the teachers, without the authority of the superintendent or the industrial com- mittee. This teacher 1s called to the Sumner building two or three tumes a week ostensibly of assisting the directress. If sheis sent out to teach she is given two schools not 100 feet from the directress office. The Bee wants to know what right |has this discrimination to be made when all the sewing teachers are sup- posed to fare alike. If a teacher should ask this modern reformer of the sewing department if they can ex- change so that it will be more conven- ient tc them and especially in wet and rainy weather, she replies in a most insulting manner, by telling them that Mr. Cook will not permit it. The BEE is of the opinion that Mr. Cook is not a party to anything that would in- | convenience his teachers. | The committee on industrial educa- | jtion is requested to investigate this | alleged assistant in the sewing depart- jment and other irregularities in this “zig zag’? program | OTHER DEPARTMENTS jare governed differently.

In September last, railway officials from London were sent to America, to get ideas on the railway passenger service of the leading lines in this country, and in their official report, which was printed in the London Times in January, it was stated that the ‘‘Royal Blue Line’’ series of mag- nificent passenger trains, running be- tween New York, Philadelphia, Balti- more and Washington, lead the world for quick and exquisite train service. The ‘Royal Blue Line” service con- sists of nine elegant passenger trains a day in each direction between the cities named above. They are the finest and fastest trains in the world. Their equipment was built especially for the service by the Pullman Com- pany, and includes every modern con- venience known for the comfort of passengers. Thetrains are vestibuled from end toend, and hauled by the strongést and fastest locomotives in the United States. The exquisite day coaches of these trains are worthy of special note. They are beautifully upholstered, each containing a washroom and smoking compartment. The parlor cars are the most pala- tial ever built, being fully seventy- three feet long. In addition to this service, three new parlor cars were addedin April, and are the first of this kind ever run; they are richly up- holstered and ornamented throughout in most beautiful designs. A ladies’ retiring-room is provided in one end of the car. This room, which is six feet square, is furnished with a beauti- ful dresser with large mirror and a number of drawers. On each side of it are upholstered cornerseats Inan- other corner is a bookcase and station ary washstand The room was de- signed for especial comfort of ladies, who have always claimed men had the best of it when travelling. The usual smoking apartment, however, is at the opposite end of the car. The dining cars are operated by the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad Company, and especial attention is given to the menu. Every delicacy is served in season, and the service is unsurpassed. | In addition to the already perfect service of ‘‘Royal Blue Trains’? men- tioned above, there will be put into service May 15 a ‘Royal Limited” train, which will leave New York at 1.00 P. M., making the run to Washington in FIVE hours. Returning, the ‘‘Roy- al Limited will leave Washington at 3.00 P. M., arriving New York at S.10 PM. The ‘‘Royal Blue Line” will then boast of three trains which make this extraordinary fast time between WwW ington and New York, which has never been attained by any other line. The ‘tRoyal Blue Trains’? be- tween Baltimore and Washington make the run in FORTY-FIVE MIN- UlEs—the fastest regular service ever attained between the two cities. The terminal at New Yecrk City is the most convenient for all points in Greater New York. Passengers can land at South Ferry (Whitehall Ter- minal), where, under the same roof, connection is made with the elevated lines of the second, Third, Sixth and Ninth Avenues, and the Broadway, Lexington and Columbus Avenue Ca bles.
