The commencement exercises of the
class of ’90, South Norwalk High School,
were held last] night in Music Hall.
They were in every way a fitting close
of the public school life of the graduates,
who emupoee the youngestclass that has
ever gone out from the High Schod.
Au audience of about seven hundred re-
latives and friends of the mamborslis-
wand to their highly instructive mys.
which were extremely well written and
decleimed. The motto "Qai Falcit Est,"
(He who dermis.) in the class colors,
green and yellow, was suspended above
the stage, upon which were sealed the
graduates, the High School instructors,
school principals of the town. committee-
men, clergy and members of tho South
Norwalk Board of Councilmen. At
either side of the stage were huge banks
of palms, tastefully arranged, and on
tables skirting the entire front of the
stage were the floral ,‘giftsj from the
graduates' friends. The. flowers Were
more abundant and beautiful in quality
and arrangement than usual.
‘ l’romptly at the hour appoinwd for
beginning the exercises, Principal W. C.
F oote announced that Rev. A. S. Kavan-
agh would ask the invocation._ The
salutatory and first essay of the event
ing was by Mark W. Norman. llis
subject was “The Next Crisis of the
United States." The essayist made
mention of the financial cricis and so
the existing conflict betweencapztal
and labor. Hesaid that the gold and
~ silver currency would be settled by no,
' tional experience, but the conflict be-
tween labor and capital will col'ltinue
-‘ solong as the lists exert their
; influence. Hogs novelists a scat-
; ling rebukeflud stated they were ill-fit-
1 as to our Republican system of govern
ment. The Standard Oil (tummy was
cinnpared to the Roman trianvate. As
of “title it was shown

and that these were .zslso unrepublican.
as they destroyed individual liberty by
regulating the hours of work, and re-
stricted the rate of wages. Unless auti-
trust laws are enforced the mass of peo-
ple, through public education, will be in
a position to assert their rights, and the
wage earner who definite the ballot and
fixes the bayonct can settle the question
by revolution, if necessary. The (Issay
was given in a strong argumentative
style, and highly appreciated. Mr. Nor-
man expects to enter Columbia colic-go
in the fall.
The essay “Queens of Song," by Miss
Flora B. Sherwood, was happily eclect-
ed, the writer being an accomplished
vocalist and instrumentalist. Well de-
served tributes were paid to Lind, rum.
Nordica, Melba and other singers who
have done much in the realm of song.
Her essay was followed by a solo, "The
Happiest Land," by Frank Comatock,
with Miss Gertrude Camp as accomp-
ainst. It was so well rendered that an
encore was demanded, the singer to
spending with "Marching to thelFroni."
“Practicality,” the subjectof F. Irv-r
ing Smith's essay, was, as its name im;
plies, a practical view of essentials. He
said the past system of schools was bas-
ed too much on the old scholastic lines;
that pupils should be more, especially
adapted for a business career. The edu-
cation of today was in advance of those
times, and we should give the pupils
something to fight the battles of life
with and make the education of the
nineteenth century unexcelled in practi-
cality. Mr. Smith expects to “continue
in the higher courses along the line of
science.
Miss Florence R. Kendall's essay was
on “The Holy Grail," a beautiful topic
and well handledby-thc young I lady
essayist. Miss Kendall traced the ori-
; gin and development of the legend,
showing how the strolling minstrels had
addedtoand influencedit. ThePugan
‘and' Christian myths becoming inter-
woven, in turn were influenwdby the
legends of the Knights of King Arthur's
Round Table. ‘lts presentation under
different titles by Tennyson and our
own James Russell Lowell were alo
luded to.
Miss Alice May Sherwood sang "Sun-
set,';»‘ and was obliged to giveanen-
core, responding with a waltz song.
The accompanist was Miss flora Sher-
wood.

Comrtock. “Nansen has discovered the

The member of the class who attained
the highest standard in studies
was Miss Susan S. Smith, and to hm
was assigned the honor of the volatile
torian address and the last «my. both of
which were eloquently doliverml. Mira
Smith's subject was “The Poet and thi-
Nation.” It was stated that the More
lure of all the early ages took the form
of poetry, and as examples were cited
the writings of thcminstrelsof England,
troubadours of France. and thc Iniunc-
singvvrs of Germany. The patriotic
songs of the revolutionary and civil
wars were also mentioned to show how
all those things had their influence over
nations. “We have failed," she said,
"to realize the value of poetry,for it istlw
embodiment of all that is noble, lofty
and elevating. ”
Mrs. Lillian Sherwood- Ncwkirk gave
two songs, “Calm as the Night" and
“Twu Maidens," and for encore sung u
"Slurnber Scmg."
Columitteeman A. Blanchard, in pre—
senting the diplomas, alluded to sonn-
objections ho ilflli lII-Iml made to flu-
Iligh School, particularly in the small
number of scholars grzulualcd and the
cost of the institution. He showed that
the lower educational branches wordd
not be as gmd without the High Scbml,
and gave illustrations from history,
especially that of New England. to prove
his stawlucnt. Cur early‘ fathers did
not begin with the primary, he said. but
with tile college. What Ntnwalkuced-
ed was a consolidated High School.
There Were new four high schmls in
town, with different ctmrses in each
and an entire lack of system, which
greatly hampered the work of the tevwh-
ers. The cost wasmuch greater than
one school Would be. and there would
also be the additional advantage of hav-
ing a comprehensive study.
Rev. 1“. W. Norris pronounced the
benediction. ,
The members of the class will con-
tinue the study of Greek until the close
of the term in June.
WATEil BOARD SINKINB FUND.
Ir. Palmer Ashe when and flow and Where it
was Established.
Editor Sentinel: Our city fathers did
a very neat job Monday evening. When
the future historian is looking over the
mocccdings of the Water lioard and the
City Council for reliable information as
towhen the water bonds sinking fund
was established, where will he find it?
Mr. Councilman Hatch speaks of it as
already established, and as ho is also
Water Cmumissioner he ought to know;
but when and how and where was if
done? It appears that some time back
this city, being impecunious (cities
somehow are always hard up), and the
Water Board being flush, a loan was
madcby the Water Board to the city
and therefore our legislators say a sink-
ing fund for the payment of the water
bonds is established. Have the Water
Commissioners over sent to the City
Council such a report with their signa-
turesaswouldbeinluw an official no-
tice that they, have in their hands a
surplus? If they have, such a fact must
appear on the record of their cfllcial
proceedings that they are requirml by
lawto keep. Please remember in this
connection that the annual report of the
Water Commissioners is by law made to
the city meeting, and any information
obtaiwd from that report by individual
justify any action of the City Council in
this matter. The simple facts are that
the Water Board has not sent to the
City Council the official report called for
by law and consequently the City Couu~
oil has not acted in the matter and can'-
not do so until the Water Board does
its duty, and there is as yet no sinking
fund. 8. C. PsLusu.

()lllcer Hunt, of the Norwalk squad,
was out on his wheel, last night, look-
ing for violators of the city ordinance
against riding bicycles on the sidewalks
or without lighted lanterns. He was
speeding up West avenue, under the
rays of an electric light, where he scour
edaglimpseofa lone wheelmau com-
ing lowarrihlm. The rider wore nslouch
hat and was going at a clip that would
have made even “Zimmy” hustle.

oquirm the guardian of the petiole.
Just then the offending wheelmun
flow by, and the oillcer started in pur-
suit of him. It was a spirited chase
from start toiluish, but the policeman
pushed his pcdalsa little the faster, and
turned into Maple street nook and neck
with his man. All at once it dawned
upon (lfiicer Hunt that the violator of
the city ordinance wus”JimIIIic"Muplcs,

feel so badly, however, that the ofiiccr
said:
”Well, I guess you won't run away.

In court this morning, it appeared
that James had a lantern attached to his
bicycle, but had neglected to light it.
He pleaded guilty and Judge Hubboll
imposed a fine of $5, without costs.
James paid up without a murmur and
was discharged.

Within the neat ten days a reacting
ol the represelitliis'vu and senators of

the annual Minty tax. Hereloforc it
has been customary focal! the meeting
s‘lmetimo in March. but for some roa-
s III or other it hm not been called up to
the present time, says the Bridgeport
Pthst
There is no lik oorl that the amount
of tax to be laid l be higher than one
year ago, although the cxlxmscs have
been very heavy. The rate then was
twctenths clone percent. and that is
the figure that it Will he at this time.
Much of the extra ‘expensc this year
isduc to the repairs required about the
jail and the Countyiliomc. Then the
children attire home have suffered a
great deal from sickness and additional
IIIolIey had lobe used for doctors and
medicine.
Therepnirs at the jail have been of
a most exu-Ilsivc character. The county
only allowed some for that purymse, but
that sum had lobe exceeded owing m
the fact that many things had been al-
lowed to go from year to year with a
little patching up until they had become
of little use. The jail was never in
better condition than at present and in
the end the county will find that some
of the money expended has brought
about a saving in the long run.
At the County Home it has been
found that the placeis sadly in need of
a hospital building. When olrildrcu are
taken sick with any contagious disease
they have to he kept' In the muiir build-

As to the make—up of the delegation,

they have eight votes sure out of the

Reed adherents say that the delegation
will at least give its first vote to the
Maine statesman. On these beliefs both
sides rest content and the remaining
work of the convention bids fair to pro-
ceed without interruption any further

good Republican may happen to men-
