Ho ox pressed tho hopo that tho present congress would havo tho effect of emphasizing tho necosslty for a single standard of purity for both sexes. "Thoro Is no religion," said ho, "whero therois not purity of thought and life. Impurity Is tho death of religion.

OYER THREE HUNDRED PUPILS ! The Schools for Girls Promises to be a Success Active Steps Taken to Main tain Discipline in AH the Schools Attendances. Tho night schools wero opened last night with a very encouraging attendanco In all quarters. Tho enrollment was tho largest for tho first night in the history of the system and a prosperous season is looked for. Tho attendance at tho girls' night school in tho Main street building is especially gratify ing and tho School Directors hopo to make it very popular. It was understood among the Directors that in case tho enrollment in this school ou the first night did not reach 20 the project would he abandoned, hut upon tho opening ol the school the enrollment ran up to 28, and there nro a number of girls who have tickets of admission, but did not attend. Tho total enrollment for the night up to seven o'clock, half an houraftertheoponing, was close to 300. After that hour there wero many now arrivals and Superintendent' Whitakcr was at work In his olllco until nine o'clock granting tickets of admission, so that tho averago attendance at tho ten schools is considerably over 30. Tho School Hoard decided at its last meeting that when tho averago attendance falls below 20 the bchools in which tho attendanco decrensos to that point shall be closed. From the developments of last evening it is not likely that there will bo any necessity to enforce the rule. With hut ono or two ex ceptions all the pupils seemed desirous to profit by the advantage held out to them. The exceptional casos arose in tho White street and Coal street buildings. School Director Conry happened to be on hand in the former building and ell'cctually nipped in the bud tho aspirations of a boy who was inclined to give the teacher lessons. Thus far the boys in the Coal street building havo proved the nfost unruly, but as tho School Hoard is determined to enforce the same discipline as that maintained in tho day schools the boys who are inclined to bo sportive will bo brought to their senses within a short time. Tho Coal street boys held things in high hand for a while, but the appearance of Con stable liolin had a good effect and there was no troublo after. Thero is some complaint about insufficient light in some of the school rooms, but that defect will bo remedied hy tho time tho schools open this evening. Tho School Hoard is desirous that tho night polico shall give what time they can sparo fo the schools and prevent unruly con duct hy attendants and interference by boys loitering outside. Tho schools remained in session two hours and a half last night and that will be the schedule time unless the collieries fall back to working three-quarter, or half time, when tho sessions will bo reduced to two hours. The enrollments at tho opening of tho schools wero as follows: West street Miss Lydia E. Eisenhower, 22 ; Miss Annie E. McNeils, 21. Lloyd street Miss M. Jessio Glover, 23 ; Sliss Cora R. Sterner, 40. Main street (Girl's School) Miss Sadio Haugh, 28. White btrect Sliss Annie R. Rlcrtnan, 20; Miss Ida C. Lewis, 27. Union street Mr. P. F. O'Donuell, 35 Coal street Miss Bridget McGulre, 35. Turkey Run Miss Maggie A. Campboll, 22. It will bo observed that tho enrollment in Miss Stcrner's school is from 30 to 50 higher than that of the other schools, but a readjust ment will bo mado after the system is in operation a few nights. Tho enrollments of tho other schools will bo increased with tho new arrivals and when the attendanco settles transfers will bo mado toequallzo tho schools. School Directors Patrick Conry and William T. Trczise visited sevoral of tho schools last night. Kt-iidrivlc Hotisu Free I.uuch. Pea soup to-night. Hot lunch to-morrow morning.
