A UNIQUE SCHOOL
The Brave Work Instituted By Two Lit
tle Girls in the Fourth Ward.
THIS IS A REAL PL ICE OF WORK
Mli.se* Pearl tu.tln and Ol t Harris. Aged
Re.p-c ively Eleven Years, Originate
and Carry Out u Woithy Work.
Rome has one of the most unique
schools in the country. The story of
this quaint and beautiful work conducted
by two of Rome’s brightest and sweetest
little maidens came to a Tribune man s
ears yesterday.
Ola Harris, is the eleven year old
daughter of Dr. and Mrs. C. S. Harris
and the idol of her parents hearts. Pearl
Austin, is her best friend, and is just
Miss Ola’s age.
These two little folk’s pul their heads
together some time ago and planned their
school, which was to prove even more
important than the schemers dreamed of.
Their parents saw the two heads together
in deep and whispered confidence, but
thought it only girlish secrets.
But one day when Ola and Pearl came
from school, they both went to the for
mer's home. There they were met by
many tots, boys and girls, of the Aigh
borhood. And then and there a work
was begun which is worthy of all com
mendation.
The little children nearby who could not
go to the public school were taken in
charge by these two young school ma’ams,
and put to a regular course of studies. The
classes were divided into two grades,
first and second. Miss Ola taking one,
Miss Pearl the other. Here you will see
genuine work too, not the play nnd frolic
of a make believe school, out good,
earnest, uplifting study.
The little teachers have inaugurated a
system and carry it out to the letter, and
it is astonishing how wisely they have
done it. There are recesses in which
their tiny pupils play and frolic as do all
healthy school children. But at the tap
of the bell everything settles down to
business, and it is wonderful to see with
what earnestness each one pores over the
task assigned. The tchool has been in
progress only a few weeks, but already
little ones, who did not know one letter,
can repeat the entire alphabet, make
them on slates, and form the smallest
combinations of letters.
That these earnest young girls mean
business can be gathered from the fact
that two unruly youngsters were suspend
ed an entire day recently, which was
considered dire disgrace by the culprits
The mothers of the little pupils have
learned of the benefit their children are
receiving, and are offering every encour
agement to the brave promoters.
The scheme originated with Ola and
Pearl, add they are due every credit. The
Tribune tips its hat to them.

A SPuKNDID ATTRACTION.
Eugenie Blair In ‘•Camille” at Nevin Opera
House Ou Next Wednesday Nijjht.
That the desire for the more serious
and dignified drama is rapidly in
creasing there is no doubt. It has
certainly been proved by Eugene
Blair and her company of players.
The success of this clever actress has
been substantial and complete. She
has placed several of the old plays
back in their proper class and given
to them new and satisfying produc
tions. Miss Blair’s ablility has long
been recognized and she has taken
her place among the leading attrac
tions of today; as an emotional act
ress this charming woman is probably
not excelled, she is always artistic and
convincing.
There are many popular and well
known plays in her repertoire, the
production of anyone of which would
be a delightful evening’s entertain
ment. and one that can always be re
membered with the greatest pleasure
and satisfaction. Such plays as ‘ ‘East
Lynne’’ and “Jane Eyre’’ are old
enough to be new again, and certain
ly good enough to last many years.
These plays are very prominent in
Eugenie Blair’s repertoire, which al
so contains “The New Magdalen,”
“Galatea,” “Carmen,” “The Iron
master’’ and “Camille” in all of which
Miss Blair has won distinct approval.
The New Orleans “Picayune” says
that “Eugenie Blair has taken up
Camille where Mojeska laid it down.”
In all of these creations this new
star has the assistance of a carefully
selected and evenly balanced com
pany of players, all of whom
been well received and highly
mended for legitimate work.
Miss Biair’s engagement is for Wed
nesday night Oct. 20th at Nevin’s
opera house. Alexander Dumas’
great classic “Camille” will be pre
sented for this occas’on.

A SAD DEATH.
Philomena, the Wiu.oms Little Daughter of
Mrs. Mary W.bir, Passes Away.
'Philomena Weber, bright, winsome,
and the very joy and light of a moth
er’s heart, passed upward to the God
who gave her to earth for nine brief
years, Sunday evening.
She was the merriest, sweetest of
little maids, a rift of sunshine to her
mother, Mrs. Mary Weber,, and the
brother and sittersand all who knew
her. But a few days ago the cherubic
face grew wan and pain-drawn; and
the dimpled body was racked with
terrible agonies. She grew worse
Sunday and the physicians attending
said that the pitiless knife . was the
last hope of saving the lit tie sufferer.
Hands skilled and tender performed
the dreaded operation, but it was use
less. With the holy calm of the Sab
bath night brooding over earth, and
with the sorrow-stricken mother hold
ing tight the baby form, the pure
young soul passed out and was borne
to the Master’s feet.
The funeral services occurred at
the Catholic church yesterday after
noon, and was largely attended. The
Tiny form was laid to eternal rest on
Mrytle Hill.
