About worth of this apparatus has been purchased altogether, the last installment arriving yesterday from Boston. Upon this there is an indebtedness of $100, which will no doubt be entirely paid if the project meets with the success it merits. We may be certain of a very interesting entertainment, as many of the scholars participating have decided ability and energy sufficient to make a success of anything they undertake.

As an additional merit of the affair, wo are assured it will be uncommon lor such entertainments. Mass Meeting. By reference to our advertising columns it will be seen that a mass meeting of tho citizens of Los Angeles and San Bernardino counties has been called by our Chamber of Commerce, to take place at the Court-house here on Saturday, December 12th.

Crawford, the Company's Engineer will bo present witli the "maps showing the proposed route, and other information bearing upon this important undertaking. We are glad to see that this project has been taken hold of in earnest and will probably be brought to some definite conclusion. The question is one of vital importance to Angeles and San Bernardino, as every thinking man must know, and itcannot receive 100 warm a support from those whose interests are Involved in the development of our portion of Southern California. Let there be a rousing response to the call, and a meeting that means business. IN SCHOOL DAYS.

Still sits the school house by tin' loud, A nigged boggnr sunning; Around It still the sumachs grow. An-! blackberry are running. Within, the master's desk Is set it. Deep scarred hv rape official; The warping Moor, the battered seats. The Jack-knife's carved Initial.

The charcoal frescoes on it I wall Thedoor's Worn sill, The feet that, creeping slow to sellout, out to pftvyrng! Long nco a Winter's sun (shone over it ut I it up Its western window panes And low eaves' icy rrcttlng. It touched tho tangled golden curls And brown eyes full olgrlrvlmr. Of one who still her steps delayed When all the school were For near her stood the little boy Hcrchildish favor His cup was pulled low on his face, Wliero pride and shame were (tkillgleil. Pushing with restless feet the snow To right and left he lingered, As restlsssly her tiny hands Tho blue checked apron lingered. He saw her lift her eyes; he felt The soft hands light He heard the trembling of her voice, As if a fault confessing.

Pin sorry that I spelt the word; I hate to go above the brown eyes lower Because, you see, 1 love you." HtIII memory to gray-haired man That sweet child face Is showing. Dear girl! the grasses on her grave Have forty years been growing! He lives to life's hard school, How few who pass above him Lament their triumph ami his loss Like they love him. Panamint News. We received yesterday from our old time friend Ludlow who is now in business at Panamint, a copy of the newspaper published there. It is called the Panamint Nctvs and Is a very creditable little sheet in its contents and appearance.

It is published tri-weekly by the Panamint Publishing Company, with T. S. Harris Manager, and D. P. Carr in tho editorial chair.

Speaking of the difllculties attending the establishment of tho News, the editor says: The metropolitan journalist would bo dismayed by tho obstacles encountered by tho pioneer printer In the establishment of a newspaper in a new mining camp such as Panamint. Ten days since, Mr. T. S. Harris, representing tho Panamint Publishing Company, arrived in this place, bringing with him a press and type for this paper, ami canvas for a tent.

At that timo no shelter could be had in the town, and for a week tho work of editor, tppos and devil was not that to which they were accustomed, and "roughing it" hardly expresses their experience during the week. Camping out on the night in the and working at their tent, occupied their time. We are now under shelter, tho cases and press in place, and enabled to present to our readers a newspaper. From the advertisements which appear in the Newt, it serums that Panamint is already well supplied with business houses, lawyers, doctors, barbers, shoemakers, etc. The cost of living is thus commented upon: Meals can be had at seventy-live cents at one restaurant, and one dollar at others.

The Surprise Valley Company charge eight dollars a week for boam, anil reference to our maract reports will convince any one that men can live here as cheaply as in any new mining camp in the history of the coast. There are not any lodging houses and blankets and mattresses are in demand. This want will soon be supplied, however, as several parties propose establishing lodging houses. The town and mines of the new district are described as follows: Upon either side of a narrow eafion on tho western slope of the Panamint range of mountains, about ten miles southerly from Telescope Peak (the highest point in the range), are situated the mines, the discovery aud working of which has caused a town to bo laid out and rapidly.built up in this cation. Ten or twelve miles to the eastward, across the range, lies Death Valley, lying between the Tortoise range, and the Panamint mountains.

The first discoveries made were those of the Stewart Wonder and Jacobs' Wonder, located in April, 1873. The ledge in each- of these claims crops out boldly above the surrounding formations and each are cut by ravines to a great depth, showing a most wonderful surface prospect. Many prospectors have clambered overlthe rocky precipices, each day discovering other ledges, until there arc now over six hundred locations in the district, many of which are developing into valuable and extensive mines. The formation is mainly limestone, though the ledges are found in slate and granite also. The stratification of the limestone is entirely different from that "of White Pine and other places wheru deposits of silver ores have been found, and theledges are traceuble upon the surface for such a distancs that there is but little reason to doubt the permanency of the mines in that formation.

The ores are mainly copper, silver glance and chloride of silver, with some black sulpheret of silver. Some ledges also carry argentiferous galena. There appears to be but little of the baser metals, which render the working of the ores so difficult. Assays and working tests of the ores show valuo ranging from $100 to $4,000 per ton, the average being about $400. A largo number of the principal mines have passed into the hands of a company known as the Surprise Valley Mill and Water Company, represented by Senators Stewart and Jones, of Nevada.

The company have expended a large sum of money iv the purchase and opening of their mines, and are yet at great the yield of some of their mines in first-class ore, which they ship to England for reduction, Is returning to them much of their outlay. No new mining district has ever had the advantage ot heavy capital, as has Pauamiut, so early in its history. There are yet scores of mines, showing equally as well as those owned by the Stewart- Jones company, awaiting development by labor and capital. Commencing at a point in the cafion opposite tho Jacob's Wonder mine, about six and a half miles from the mouth of the cafion, a town has been laid out, extending a distance of about a mile up the cafion. There are several buildings of decent proportions already erected and others being constructed.

A reference to our advertising columns will show that those buildings are not unoccupied. At least one thousand men are now living in the district. Aboutoue-half a mile east of the main town the works ot the Surprise Valley Company are located; at which there'is a iarge store, a boarding-house fur employes, store-houses, feed-v it and excavations are being made for mills, ore-breakers and other buildings. timo is not far distant when the whole space between the main town and the company's works will be built upon and one continuous town will extend far down the drfiorr. EDUCATIONAL COLUMN.

(Edited by the Teachers of the Public Schools of Los Angeles county.) Monthly Reports. The parents of the pupils in the advance grades of tlw city schools and in at least two of tbe county schools Alameda and Gallatin rcceivo monthly reports of die scholarship, attendance and deportment of their children. The preparation of these reports imposes considerable extra labor upon tbe teachers. To compensate those who are willing to perform this extra work and to make tho reports profitable to the pupils, parents should carefully examine them and compare the reports of each month with those of preceding months, They will, perhaps, be surprised to learn that their children have been absent so many days, or tardy so many times. This knowledge may lead them to be more careful about detaining children at home for rilling reasons or lead to the discovery that the child has been deceiving both parents and teachers.

Book at your children's standing in deportment, and if it is not satisfactory, inquire into the cause. The very fact that you manifest some interest In the subject may be tho means of your child's improvement. Tho low standing in his different studies may convince tho parents that more attention must be given to text-books out of school-rooms and less time devoted to amusement or to light reading. A standing of 75 per cent, or less, shows that the pupil is only moderately successful; while 50 per cent, shows that ho is progressing very slowly, with no prospect of promotion at the end of the year. A report that is very unsatisfactory ought always to secure a Visit to the teacher in order to learn particulars that cannot be given on the card.

With the earnest assistance of the parents, these monthly reports will become elfeetive instrumentalities in securing more regular attendance, higher standard of scholarship and better deportment. Duty of Parents. "There is more for the mother to do than to see that the children get off in time in the morning; more for tho father to do than simply pay his school tax. Teaching is not to be left altogether to the teacher; parents must help. This they can at home, by taking an interest in the lessons to be learned, and they can accomplish further good by visiting the school.

The teacher is but tho assistant of the parent, and it, must be seen that both are working in the same direction. The father may not find time to do much, but the mother can. She may have forgotten her French or arithmetic, but slid can toll if her children are surrounded by good influences, if they are taught conscientiously or superficially. The teacher, too, is encouraged to know that iio iiinciiTa cu-opeiation, and the pupils are proud to show the progress made cuoeo laob Prof. Sickal.

Iv the first number of the Dixon Tribune, we find the following fiatteriug notice of a former teacher in Los Angeles. His many (iriends here will be gratified to hear of his continued succees. "As a school, it is all that can be desired. Prof. M.

T. Siekal is a competent, thorough and conscientious teacher." 1 Visitors. Last week Prof. S. Sherman, of New York, spent two days in our city schools, with the exercises of which he seems to be well pleased.

He left for Proscott, Arizona, having been invited by Gov. Sallbrd to open a school of high grade in that place. Prof. Sherman promised to send occasional communications for the Educational column. On Monday, Mr.

Cornwall, ex-County Superintendent of Kern county, visited the schools. Mr. C. will probably locate in this county, as he is delighted with our climate, and with the certain indicat ions of our future growth. Report of First Grade Grammar School.

Teacher. Sewing. The experiment of teaching sewing in the Boston public school generally, is to be tried. Since last December sewing has been taught to 1,200 in the Winthrop school, and with great success. I like to see in a youth some of the good qualities of old age, and some of the good qualities of youth in an old Cicero.

The real orphan is not he who lost his father, but he whose father gave him no education. NEW ADVERTISEMENTS. PEOPLES' TICKET. FOR MAYOR, I. BEAUDRY.
