In visiting the Graded school last week, we
were greatly pleased to note the bright and
cheerful appearance of moat of the school
room.. Many of then ha•t nourishing plants
in the windows and the walls were 'prettily
and tastefully decorated with pietures, Jap
anese fans, scrolls, tiny umbrellas, mottoes
&e. The teacher•who strives to cultivate . a
love of order and neittiess in his or her pu
pil., deserves .0 vote of thanks from every
parent.
Mr. Alfred J.. McKnight visited the Insti

expressed big surprizo dnding so apacion4 .
and handsome a school building in a town of
the size of Towanda.
There are people who enjoy tine singing,
even when the selections are front Italian,
opera, and again there are people who do net"
uuderstand or appreciate it." Now if the lat
ter class would refrain from audible com
ments until the singer is done, it would be
far more agreable to the former class of Rer
sons. This remark deca not - apply to To
wanda, where everybody is supposed to an
-predate high art in music, as' in everything
el.e; but is applicable to almost any 1091 a
thousand miles from here.
•Varents who have childroi atteneing'the
Graded school, ought to visit there once in a
while. It encourages -the faithful teachers
and is a Stimulus to the pupils. Onr Graded
School is 'Fomotliing to be proud of, and, an
occasional visit will convince any one that in
Prof. Albert we have a wide-awake, earnest
who dill spare no effort to make
our school rank among the best-in the State.
'His genial manners have won the confidence
of his pnpili and his ability and thorough
ness as an educator have inspired respect.
James Jeder, an honest, hard working
colored man, was taken to the County House
Asylum for the insane on Monday last. Jim
has been acting rather queer fir some weeks
past, but no one thought bird really insa.le
uptil on Friday of the last week. Ho then
became violent and made threats against his
wife and family, l trirm whom he "had "always
cherished a tender regard. Oa Saturday
he,bcrame so violent that it was not thonght
prudent to allow him on the street any lon
ger; so at the solicitation of his friends. Of
ficer Baits put him in the station house,.
where he was kindly cared - for over Sunday.
We sincerely hope Jim may speedily ree over,
for he has a trusty, faithful and industrious
man. He had
: taken care of about a dozen
offices, this winter, and carried the keys him
self, as all who knew him bad the utmost con
fidence in his honesty. ''.
.4 Drunken Actor.
The Florence) Richmond Company, who ap
peared in Mercur Hall on Monday evening, in
"Led Astray" gave the humotoiis drama of
"Dr. Clyde" on Tuesday evening. Again
Miss Richmond won high praise for her grace
,beanty and superb acting; but, we are sorry
to ray that Mr. Vernon who took the very
unimportant cart of the aesthetic young man,
"longing for an affinity," in "Led astray" was
ao drunk the second evening that he not only
made a fool of himself, but spoiled the whole
play for those who could really act well their
respective \ parts. The manager came out and
stated the truth idainly; after the first scene.
He. said that Vernon had seen a puff for him
self in a daily paper; and, as he had never
had a notice before, it completely upset him-
The manager's frankness saved the pirce.
We understand that. Vernon received his dis
missal the same night and left for par*, un
known on the next train.
Mias Tonts iu Philadelphia.
The Philadelphia T'r'anscript, thus pleasant
ly refers to a young lady , well known in this
part or the country, in the following very flat-,
tering manner: •
The field of readers and elocutionists is
never known to be fall. We hear from time
to time of now candidates for public fayor.
The latest is Miss E. Ray Yontz, of EltUira,
N. Y. This young lady, a graduate of Vassar,
is said to possess rare beduty, grace and
ability, and has created considgrable semi
lion in the northern part of the State, where
she has not only been welcorded by overflow
ing houses, but by substantial tributes to-her
merits. She seems to bo especially happy
. in
the rendition of dialect poems, which her
education, graceful presence and modetity
adorn and embellish. We shall take great
pleasure in announcing her early presence in
this city. '
'Wiry Party,
Misses Ellen and Florence Welles, the little
five-year-old daughters of Mr. C. B. Welles, en
tortatned f large number of their little yields
on Thursday last.
' Although the inclemency of the weather forced
many to send in.their regret', there were about
fifty of thi little folks assembled. and they bad
licharmingilme. Among the many devices, for
amusement was a Dutch doll, the funniest
.thing ever heardef. It would answer questions
and donee like a fairy. whenever requested to do
so. Then thereint a menagerie where all could
tee any animal asked for. Nearly. all "anted to
in "little monkeys." on lifting a Curtin the ,
children saw their own faces reflected from a
large mirror. Most of them could see the point
of the yoke at once, while others would glance
all , around In search of the " monkeys:* and
would get heartily laughed at by their quicker ,
witted companions, . 7
Lest but not least came the little folks most
welcome fr.end ...Sante Clatut,". all cuing ace
samtded in the bash parlor to await his coming:
Presently the tinkle of belles announced that he
was near, and soon to the actasentent iliClu
'beanie loaded down with three large baskets
of goodies. which he proceeded too distribute.
The curtains having been lowered and tigers
lighted gave the scene a very Christmas•like itp.
Penance. Although he did not just look like the
"dolly Old Elf " that we read of, his gray based
and sootebegrimed &pp:oral:ice - proved him , to
be the veritable- old " St. Nick " that his ',de.
lighted the hearts of the little *ilea tor-so f ain
years.
The hour for dlspereing hiving arrived, all
with many regrets :that tho time , had come ma
soon, went to their several homes delighted,
