She received the Pea-lsiy for the First Pistrict wiifu she the High h.xl. and the Ber--ereay gold medal which always aceoinnn-nies that honor. Since pursuing her studies at the High School.

Miss Juan "a has followed closely in the wake of Mi -Iut-rard. so that uer classmates ri -i-tate to say that Miss Levy has eoi second, she has certalnlv been a r- fine pupil. Miss Jane Barnett cf McPonogh Hi; School No. who will receive the alnui'it essay medal Wednesdav night, is the daughter of Mr. John Barnett.

In hei-early childhood she was a pupil of Miss irict, tor paving Dasement or new im UooI luiiidlng on Annunciation street. It was recommended, that all rented school btiildings be Surrendered during J'lly, August and September, thus saving J341 per month In rentals, or $Prj3 total for the three months. The committee on high and normal schools, through Mr. Chretien, reported as follows: Examination of Normal Kindergarten department will take place June 14 slid 1. Charges against the principal of McIonogh High School Xo.

3 were not sustained, and therefore no recommendations are made relative thereto. According to the report of the principal the following pupiis of McDoiiogh High School Xo. 1 having obtained the ueceary average, are entitled to diplomas: Owen Levy tife. E. L.

Mehan K-vtEt. James Fer-uon George Howe The day after the receipt of this report tiie committee was informed tllut the result of the Intermediate examination had not been couuted in making the final averages. The committee then decided by a majority vote that the result of the said examination was to be counted ai a daily recitation and added to the total average of ciass work made by these boys, and the principal was directed to do as iiove, and to so declare the rank of these four boys in their graduation standing. The adding of the result of the intermediate examination as a daliv recitation to the general average made "by these hoys changed the result so aa to" make iwen Levy first. Howe second, Feruou liilrd, and Mehan fourth.

The committee then decided the gradu- atinn of these boys in the order above mentioned. As the counting of the intermediate examination in the other high Hchools did not change the result in the honors, the committee decided it was unnecessary to count said ititernii'dlate examination, as the final result would be the same The majority of the committee decided that the int rmediate examination which1 was to be considered a matter of promotion or graduation, should be counted as a recitation, as the rub's for graduation had been changed by the committee on rules and curriculum. The committee therefore reported that Association. The motion of Mr. Behrman that the committee on high and normal schools should be iucreased from five to seven members, one from each municipal d-trlot.

and that the members of tne coui-mittee' on teachers be disqualified from appointment on the committee on high and normal schools, next came up for consideration, having been laid over from last meeting. Mr. A. M.ss moved that a vote should be taken on each of the two distinct propositions which the motion contained. Mr.

Behrman then offered to strike out the clause -Mine from each municipal district." and to insert seven members, to be appointed bv the president, irrespective of district." Mr Wisdom moved that the original number on the committee (five) remain. Finally Mr. Ie Fuentes moved to lav the whole matter on the table. By a vote of It to 4 this last motion of Mr De luentes was carried. Mr.

W. IV Curtis urged that the attention of 'he Mayor I called to the unfinished condition of St. Ann's School, and that the contractor be requested to finish the work on building without further delay, and tuus save the expense of renting a temporary building. Mr. riirtiR aV, moved that the Civil Service Commission be allowed the use the hall of the Boys Free High School for their semi-tnonthlT night sessions for the examination of applicants, provided that no expense be Incurred by the board.

Both motions were adopted. Before adjourning Mr. Tavlor. of Philadelphia, was Introduced. He made a short argument before the members, urg Ing them to thoroughly Investigate the question of compulsory vaccination for school children.

THE Pl'PILS WHO HAVE WO HONORS.

IViaatera of Medal Offered by the Athene Lonininais for Eirrl-lenre In French antra of the Graduates. The first of the public high school commencements for 18l7 will take place Mon-dav night, when the inili.iiri ogh High School No. will appear upon me stage of the Grand Opera House. Wednesday night will be devoted to Mc-Ponogh High School No. and Friday night the boys will graduate One interesting feature which has been a part of the graduating exercises for the past eight years will be lacking in each of these three high school commencements.

There will be no presentation of the usual alumnae gold medal to the first graduate or any announcements made with regard to the rank In the class of any of the students. There has always been such close rivalry between the leading pupils of each class for first honors that It has been well nigh impossible to make a distinction between them. As the High School Alumnae offered no medal this year, save the one for tho best essay, there was no- necessity for announcing wo had received the highest per cent, and consequently It has not been don by the superintendent or by any of the principals. In the Boys High School A. O.

Lory, James Fernon and George Howe have been the recognized leaders of the class in scholarship. Of these three, James Fernon distinguished himself by winning the medal offered by the Athenee Lonlsi-anals for the highest standard of excellence In French. In McPonogh High School No. 2 the class concedes to Miss Erin Sherrard first honors and to Miss Juanita Levy second. This has been tho relative position of the two young ladies ever since they entered the high school, and no one questions It now.

Miss Sherrard has won the French medal without a doubt. The principal of McDonogh High School No 3 Is rejoiced that she did not ha.e to distinguish between the first four of the young lady graduates, as their percentages are so nearly equal. They are Mis Jane Barnett. Miss Annie Elwell. Miss Blanche Peuch and Miss Xlta Ravaln.

Of these Miss Blanche Peuch received the medal for French. The alnmnl medals for the bet-t essays were won In the Hoys' High School 6y Master James S. Gautreaux. In the npper girls' by Miss Marie Phillips, of the intermediate class, and in the lower girls' by Miss Jane Birneti. Following are the names of the graduates: McPonogh High School No.

Miss Sherrard Is one pupil in whose tjc. oes her classmates rejoice, and she wears her honor with the most mod-estr Miss Juanita Levy, daughter of Mr. ii im 7 "II An observant citizen asked yesterday: 'Has it occurred to you that the United States has added Hay to her list cf exports to England" Ed Curtis was asked what he thought about his being characterized as a juuk dealer in the celebrated American Bank case by one ofthe attorneys, and he said: "Talking of junk naturally makes a fellow think of brass, and there Is a jay who has brass enough In his face to make a five-gallon kettle, and sap enough In his head to fill it. What have I done to him? Why don't he get mad at little Ourley and swallow him? He would at least then have brains somewhere.

'It is adding insult to Injury to have his side take my money, and then call me a junk dealer. They didn't get much, but there was a time wher I had a fat balance there well up in five figures, but I met one of the officials oe Sunday morning, and he inquired of me where I was going, and upon belug informed that I was going fishing, he admonished ma to put niy basket in Cusachs' drug store and come to church with him. You bet your boots I yanked the bulk of that money out next day." The man that seems to fill a very distinct groove in this worl.l is the man who has always a kind word for his neighbor and who is always seeking to do something wherebv the other fellow ti-ni reive some gratification. In this work he goes along, pursuing the eveii tenor of his way. bringing smiles of pleasure "to the faces of the many and giving life and color to the view.

He greets you with a gleam of sunsivne upon his countenance. He's glad to see vou: tells von how n-n i you're looking and then in a confidential wiusper takes you to one side and tells you that "So-and So," your employer possibly, said a number of very nice things about you. He takes an interest in the little things that affect you and yours: pats you on the back and remarks something about life being a thing to enjoy and that care ought to be cast to the dogs. nd all that sort of thing, anil then he'll pass on with a smile, leaving you better at heart and viewing the world through glasses a Uttle more rose-tinted than before. He is a specimen of the genus homo that unfortunately is not numerous, but be exists just the same, and with stray bits of kindness weaves a mantle of enjoyment about the existence of a fellow-struggler that lightens his loads and sends him about his tasks with a brighter heart.

He is not to be met every day. but when you do meet him. "grapple him to yoa with hooks of steel." for he's worth and he wears well. Possibly his happiness conies from making others happy, and If this be so. he has found the truest contentment and needs no rounde'ay to sing his graces nor erudite epitaph to adorn his resting place when he has shaken Charon by the hand and entered into his heritage.

"The World's Desire." Twas only the other day that a brilliant novelist compiled a lot of words; bound them about a fancy, put them in a book, and gave to the world a creation that was ornamented by the sentence quoted In the beginning of this paragraph. To him. love held the world iu leash, and lovely woman, both In mind and body, the golden apple for which the men of the earth struggled and fought to secure. The novelist may have been right. In the abstract he whs right beyond peradventure.

but the world, like the sea. is constantly changing, and what is food to-day Is not food to-morrow. Woman, that lovely creation, holds full sway at times, but when golden summer comes to light the face of the earth with its beauteous garlands and blooms; with its meadows of cowslips and its skies of vernal blue, then man. at least that portion of the sex which is yet callow and which grasps with itching but missing fingers to cull the nnresponsive hairs in the embryotic moustache, sets his idol a peg higher than woman. Lovely maiden with witching eye and many-colored tresses, rose-bud mouths, and voracious ice rream appetites, thy charms fail to arouse the ardor which dwells In the young masculine bosom.

Nay, nay. sad be it, but 'tis true. In these wondrous hours when June tireezes and candle bugs alike grace the face of nature and dwell In rapturous glance upon the landsnpe. the youth that footed It so gracefully at the winter germaus. now pines in amurous anticipation before the shop windows watching the changing hues of the summer shirt bosoms, and his sighs go out for a missing color that is rodder than red or bluer than blue.

When this appears, then the mas- uliue portion of the world will have lived to some purpose and ambitions, shattered upon unattainable (at present) ideals, be put in repair and the world wtig cn again its merry wav. Natchez has a jockey club, of which Judge Leber (manager of the Xatchez and Vlcksburg Packet Company) is the president. A new track will be built immediately and a rave meeting will legln this fall. It is also intended to have an electric street car line to the track. "That will be the first electric street car line that Mississippi has ever had, will it not':" asked one of the bystanders who had been listening to Judge Keber'g description of the proposed improvements.

"Weil. not exactly," replied Judge lieber. "for the people of Natchez once had an electric street car line in the city, although they didn't ktow that they had it. 'It happened in this way. I hac- a line of mtiie car and I sold it out to a company and left the city for awhile.

Andrew Wilson read the report of th committee on teachers, which, in addition to granting numerous applications for pay to teachers for lost time through sickness, recommended that the reduction In salaries of the principals of Jackson Girls', McPonogh No. 2. McDonogh No. 2, McDonogh Xo. 3L, Beauregard, and the kindergarten teachers of St.

Ann and McDonogh No. 23 take effect from April 1, instead of March 1. The committee recommended that the superintendent give notice of a competitive examination for colored candidates for teachers' certificates, to be held nt later than July 25 Candidates will he required to make per cent to obtain their certificates. In regard to the petition to change the corps of teachers of McPonogh No fi from white to colored, the committee decided that the project was not feasible and no change would be made at this time. Mr.

Mortimer Wisdom read the report of the committee on finance, which was as follows: "Xo the President and Members of the Board 4ebool Directors for tae ParWa of Orleans: "Gentlemen Your committee on finance In submitting the usual monthly report of toe treasurer of date Mav 31, take pleasure In calling your attention to the ta'1 that all the couunittees are well witnin the amounts budgeted to them except the teachers' committee, which, on the basis of per month 'or tuition against total of budgeted to them for a nirv months' sesslou. shows a total excess of expenditures lor the four months from January to April inclusive of f.i.J.s (4. or the information of the board, your committee Ug to state that this will I. supplemented by an additional excels of $51' on account of teachers' payroll for the mouth of May.

'A, Miss Itarnett. first; Miss Annie El well, second. Mr. Williams submitted a minority report, in which Mr. McGivney Joined, last night.

This report dissented for the rea- -sou that previous to the adoption of the new rules for graduation, the result of the intermediate examination was not counted as a recitation, but was to be considered in connection with the work of the pupil during the year. "There is no value except the above attached to the Intermediate examination in any part of the ruiea of this board, and the counting of same as a dally recitation Is an assumption not justified by the rules of the School Hoard. As ier protest of Mr. Fer-nou and eighteen of the graduates, it appears that at the time the examination was held they were informed that the examination would be counted for nothing in this promotion. This caused the boys, possibly, to relax somewhat the attention they would otherwise have given to that examination.

"I nder these circumstances the minority believe that the result of the Intermediate examination should not be counted, and the boys shonld graduate In the order given in the first report, and the minority move the adoption of this, their report as substitute for the majority report!" There wag considerable discussion regarding this report, almost ail the members airing their knowledge of the rules governing examinations, and arguing on both sldea. even Superintendent Calhoun Joining In the debate. The motion to adopt the ruiuority report was put to a vote, and finally carried by a vote of almost 2 to 1. The committee also reported the follow- ing on the death of Miss Bertha Koppel: I It Is the sad duty of your committee to announce the denth of Miss Bertha Koppel an associate teacher of McIouogh lli-h School No. 2.

Her death is almost au lrrepnrable loss to the She was intelligent. Industrious, active and progressive, and did lo work as a teacher conscientiously and well. Loved by her pupils, esteemed by the board ami hoii ored by the community, her death is de- serving of this especial notice, which com Uiemorates her work and the regrets of this bod v. P. CHRETIEN.
