WARDING.

Tlio WorEi of Binding the Centennial Papers at Last Completed.

THE WHOLE NOW ON EXHIBIT ION AT THE SUPERINTENDENTS

OFFJtE.

List of the JVacliers Ahead.

Who Are

Learning that all but one volume of the Centennial work prepared by our city schools was now readj for inspection at the office of Superin-1 tendeut W. H. Wiley, the GAZETTE, this morniDg, sent a representative that way to take a glance through the neatly bound volumes, the models, etc. The books are spread on three tables in the office. It seems a little curious that such a vast amount of labor should be comprised in such small space. It must be remembered, however, that onyl a very small per cent, of the entire mass of papers prepared was selected. One whole school in each grade and in each study has been taken, but of the remainder only ten percent has been selected*

Of this work there are three grand classes, which have been discribed at length from the instructions sent out by the centennial state committee, in the GAZETTE, and in it alone, but which we will here recapitulate.

Class 1.—Manuscript work especial ly prepared for the Centeunial Exposition,

Class 2.—All manuscript and other work prepared in the regular course of school instruction without refererence to Centennial,

Class 3.—Work illnstrative of the school question. Referring to

CLASS FIRST,

we find on a round table (these teachers are kuights of the rouud table or at any event, they work 'round a table at night,) we find a number of beautifully bound books, all of the same size—square shaped— but of different thicknesses. These books contain the manuscript work except that in penmanship which also belongs at least part of it, to this general class.

Commencing at the first year grade and going up, it will be easy to ascertain who of the teachers have been having the best success

The little people of the first year, study "language and spelling" and arithmetic. Three schools of this- grade in various parts of the city are so nearly alike that no selection, exclusive, could be made and, inconsequence they were all three taken. They are Miss Lammers of the 1st. ward, Miss Clara Clayton of the same ward, and Miss Knapp of the 5th. In Arithmetic the whole school was taken In the second year grade the whole classes were taken because there was not enough of the work to fill out a volumn.

In the third year grade the following were the awards Arithmetic, whole school papers, taken by Mrs. Davis, of the First Ward "Language and Spelling," by Miss fcjurrell, of the Second Ward.

In the 4th. year grade no whole school seletions were made. The character of the work did not warrant it. A ten per cent selection was made

The fifth year grade did better. Miss Crandell's school, in the Sixth Ward, won the honor of having the papers of an entire class selected in arithmetic James W. Landrum's school, of the same ward, are proud over the same distinction in geograpoy, and Ray Wilkins of the 7th. ward has her class in "language and spelling" selected

Furthhr on we come to the 6th year grade. Here, Miss Hessey teaches in tbe 2nd ward, has an entire class taken in geography.

Miss Hyde, of the sixth ward, in language and spelling, and Miss Mann, of the 5th, in arithmetic.

In the 7th year grade, the atudies are grammar, arithmetic, spelling and language.

MisB Oakey, teacher in tbe First Ward, succeeded best in arithmetic Miss Gordon, of the Second Ward, in grammar and Mr, Morrisson, of the Third Ward in language and spelling,

The Eight year grade shows some beautiful work. There was very live ly competition in this grade wtth the following results: Mrs. Grover's class in grammar are considered the most erudite in that noble study. Mr. Albert Wyeths class, in History, are ahead in accomplishments looking that way, and Mr. Henry Guenawalt, does all the smiling and crowing when language and spelling are mentioned. In the High school, the same plan could not be as well pursued. Whole classes were taken in Physiology, in Constitution, in German, Latin, and arithmetic and penmanship.

In the subject of penmanship, which belongs partly to two classes the SECOND WARD HAS NEARLY ALL THE

LAREL8.

Victory sits on the banners of all the rooms in the ward, from thaee to seven inclusive. These are all the rooms in this ward which have writing. The awards are as follows: No 3, Miss Surrel No 4. Miss Addle Eaton No 5, Miss Paiti No 6, Miss Hersey No 7, Miss Gorden and number 8, Mrs, Grover. The latter teacher is of the sixth ward. That part of the study ot penmanship which belongs to

THE SECOND CLASS

above described is toe copy books that were prepared without any reference to the centennial*

In tbe class we find an elegant display of maps. These maps were drawn by tbe pupils without knowledge of tbe purpose to which they were to be turned. Mrs. Starr's class bt ars off tbe

TOTAL COST OF ALL THESE THINGS has been about £800,-of which $100 was raised in the Centennial exhibition at the Opera House, about |300 by contributions of teachers and $175 from subscriptions of citizens. It will be seen that about $200 yet remains to be raised. It would be outrageous for Mr. Wiley to be made to pay this, and unless citizens come forward with small donations, this is what he will have to d°*

Indianapolis, Mch. 14.—Wm, Ryan flreman of C. C. C. & I. R. R. while attempting to make the coupling this noon fell under tne engine and was killed.

BAILRUAD NEW**.

Resolved, That while we regard the attempt to drag the common school question into the coming campaign as unnecessary, yet we do ribt hesitate to declare it as our well considered opinion that' the fund set apapt by the State for educational purposes should ever remain one and undivided, and that no part of it should ever be devoted to the maintenance of any sectarian or denominational school whatever.

An effort was made to induce Mr Charles Noble to take the chair, but he declined being identified with the organization. He would, however, do what he could for it on the streets.

An organization was finally effected with Harmon Blood, President, and William Manning Secretary.

After some argument on a motion to adjourn until Saturday night on account of the meeting not having been extensively enough advertised,the motion was overuled and business was at once proceeded with. An

EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE

composed of the following gentlemen was chosen. First Ward,—Mr. Bundy.

Second Ward,—B. F. Royse. Third Ward,—Mr. Hesdrickson, Fourth Ward,—G. W. Nay lor. Fiftn Ward,—Harmon Blood. Sixth Ward,—Mr. Slusser. This committee is expected to do tbe work of arrainging for the coming campaign. Adjourned.

A Row at the Colored Churcli. They had a row at the colored church last evening which for a time put an end to all dreams of immortality and forced the brethren to turn their atten

tion to earthly trial and tribulations

One of the colored brethren in Ascribing the affair to Ye Gay Gazetteer declared that "one mean, ornery nigger, jis got clean away with the whole crowd." It seems that a dispute arose between Sam Griffin and George Boyd, in wbich the latter received several ugly cuts about the head with a razor. Joshua Davis special policeman at tbe colored church, attempted to arre3t Grilfin, when Josiah Miller interferred, and, during tbe row which ensued, Griffin made his escape.

Express Companies.

The third number of volume 1, of the Expressman's Monthly, a neat pamphlet of 100 pages, "devoted to the interrst of the Express Companies and their employees," has been shown us by Mr. Harry Hill, a tried and trusted express messenger of the Adams Company, running on the E. «fc C. road.

It centains a number of things' not alone interesting to messengers. From it, and other resources, we learn a lit-, tie of thejestablishmentof express companies, which may not be familiar to all of our readers. Upon the cover leaf of this interesting monthly are four pictmres which tell tbe whole story.

The first is a man skipping along at a livelv pace with packages of goods on bis shoulders and under bis arms.

This man is "old John Adams," the founder of tbe express companies. He first commenced in tbe City of New York, many years ago, to carry valuable packages from one part of the city to another. He was tried and trusted, and his business grew. He commenced to carry larger packages and bigger loads, and extended his field so as to go from one town to another on the trains, carrying these valuables in his pockets or in trunks. Later on he got a wheel barrow, and still later the increasing demands of his business, forced him to buy horses and wagons, which brings us to the

SECOND PICTURE.

In this, honest John appears to be doing a good business, and is actively engaged loading on goods. His business fctill increased. He got to carrying packages across the seas, and this stage of the rapid progress Is represented by

PICTURE NUMBER 3,

wherein a mighty vessel is "outward bound ploughing her course along the watery waste.

He subsidized railroads, and in picture four is seen the culminating triumph. It is a Been at a depot at train time packages are flying here and there, like chaff from a threshing machine. The agent standing in his car, is checking on his goods, billing, re

ceipting, piling away, talking, writing and watching hundreds of thousands of dollars are entrusted to bis care. It is a busy time with him and a dangerous one, too. Well he knows that sharks are watching his every movement. And, as the train moves out around the curve, or down the grade, there he stands figrning up "shoots" and "overs" while'the car rocks to and fro, and amidst the bustle and smoke and ringing of bells, al ways present at a depot at such an exciting time.

John Adams still lives. He has seen this infant grow to its present mighty proportions with giant strides. An old man, be has retired from active life and is now a resident of Boston. He is still a director of the Adams Co*, and receives with hearty hospitality any of that brave class of men known as "messengers" when they visit "the hub."

One remarkable peculiarity of Elder W. F. Black, who preached the dedicatory sermon at the' Christian church last Sunday, is the tenacity of his memory for names and faces. Although he has not been here for years, and got in on Saturday too late to see anybody, he looked out over that audience on Sunday morning, without any prompting, and knew almost every one there. Some men wondered how he could remember that they owned big farms, in such and such townships, or houses, or lots, or that they were or were not married, Ac. .•, .•

On Saturday, John Fletcher, an old and respected citizen, died at this place. He was buried yestarday. He was 55 years of age at the time of his death. Another good citizen, J. M. Hager, a harness maker, is reported to be at the point of death.

printed across the face in glaring red ink were the figures 153, indicating that the card belongs to a set of 153 or more, similar cards, used, perhaps, for calculating percentage or something of that sort. It was closely examined by His Honor, the Mayor. Prosecutor Kleizer, Marshall Schmidt, Deputy Buckingham, Officers Gibson and Reagan, and ye gay GAZETTEER but none of them had ever seen anything like it before. It is, no doubt, valua bleto whom it belongs, who can get possession of it by calling at the Maynos office and proving property.
