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.

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. DOWN EIGHT POINTS.

'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.
