The Oakland , Californiaboard of education is thinking seriously of attaching to the public school department of that city an industrial training school for boys and girls the former to be grounded in the elementary use of tools , and the latter to bo instructed in cooking and sowing. The special committee on the sub ject ha\o reported in favor of establishing two classes of twenty scholars each , for boys , and two classes , also of twenty scholars , for girls.Two Two young msn of Ida township , Monroe county , Michigan , have been arrested for dis turbing the district school. The "disturbance" complained of seems to have consisted of a pprslstant inclination to attend the school as visitors and sit with the f iris nnd "spark" during Echool hours ; also a habit of being at the school at recess and noontimes , to engage in the same pleasant occupation. The boys weakened on being hauled up before the jus tice and promised to quit. There is considerable agitation in Belgium over the lace-making schools. They are chiefly in the hands of different religious com munities , as the Apojtolines , the Maricoles , the Josephines and Colloctines , and are under stood , while teaching the art of lacs making , to give some primary instruction. It appears that less than an hour is devoted to reading and writing , the rest to the Litany nnd tha loom. The age of admission Is as low as 5 or G years.

They are robbed in Addition. A child is mentioned in the report who , After working for two months , took homo thirty centimes , or At the rate of half a centime a day ; another , 12 years old , received for three years' work five francs , or ono centime a day. * Spring Delights. The merry spring is coming , The birds are here again , And prompt on time we hear it The organ-grinder's strain. Suns of sunny Italy Are up betimes each day , And late into the night they work , To drive our sleep away. The little birds ore singing , The air is soft as Juno , And on our ear there falleth The old , familiar tune. O , Fenian dynamiter , Hasten theo hero wo pray , Start your infernal machine when The organ begins to play. ' 'GiL" in Boston Star.

During the recent Ohio Hood , Dean chapel , about ono mile from Worthington , Ky. , was about half under water. After the waters had withdrawn.pictures of bible events , according to the stories of severaUrutliful citizens , began to appear upon the four walls. The crucifix- uou , covering a space of two by three feet , was beautifully outlined. Tw > cities of de- Btructlon occupied the naif of ono wall , and Gethseuuuo aud the twelve apontlos filled an other half. There were aniuxrJs of every de. scription , and a portrayal of Noah's ark. It would be dltficuU to mention any Important event related In the holy scriptures that was not depicted on the chapel walls. The phe nomena lasted until the Oth , the cha ) > el balng then used for the first Hue since tha Hood , when the picture * gradually disappeared , | .ro- Bumably , as eomo suppose , from the effect of the heat of tha stove.
