Hosier's noonday class, as it Is called, has been in operation fur several years in the blacksmith shop of Brewster & Co. 's carriage factory, at Broadway and Forty-seventh street, The shop employs about 2'K) men and twenty to twenty-nv boys, Mr. Hosier. who la foreman of tbe smithing shop, devotes the most of his noon hour to the education of these boys, or such of them as are willing to learn. Mr. Mover's idea comprised tho nreserva' tion, by exercise, of what education tho boys had, as well as the development of it and its application to the practical work of tho boys' lifetimes the art of carnage building. Merely by the use of the few minutes snatched from the noon hour tbe practical benefit to tbe boys is now plainly visible. On Mondays and Tuesdays the boys study arith metic. Examples are given on the black board, and oral instruction, together with book study. On Wednesdays they are given teohnioul journals on carriage building to read. On Thursdays they read history and ordinary school readers. Ou Fridays they again roan me tecunical journals, of which there are half a dozen now printed, relating to carriage building. On Saturdays the boys study and practice froe-hand drawing, copy - ing examples from the blackboard, Each boy takes home one of the technical journals and copies from it one page each week into a book. These books are coinparod, criticised, and corrected by tho teacher. As fast as tbe boys progress thoy are ad vanced to higher grades of drawing, all lead ing to fit them to enter the carriage draught ing school. In this way the boys become familiar with the accurate forms of every part of a carriage. They also learn the pro cesses of manufacturing the different parts, including tho painting and SuUhlng, even to the drawing of crests and armorial decora tions. There is a chance to devolop what ever peculiar talent any boy may have. The boys are taught simple book-keeping by being required to keop their own accounts. As a stimulus Brewster & Co. give rewards to tho most proficient Attracted by the novelty and practical common sense of the thing, some of the contractors in tho shops have given suitable rowartls, and a number of pupils have been sent to the Thirty-fourth street school. In connection with tbe noon day school Mr. Mosier has established a savings bank, where the boys are encouraged to save a little, and are taught the benefit of patting by something for a rainy day. As soon as a boy gets $4 saved Mr. Britton adds a dollar, and that starts the young capitalist with bis bank account. Besides these ad vantages are schooling In parliamentary usage and meetings at which the pilnclples of parliamentary procedure are taught. Gen erally the boys take to the noonday school with alacrity. The oldest is only 17 years of age ana tbe youngest 13. They have no regu larly appointed school-room, but congrogate at bell tup in the iron-room, whore thoy sit ou the work benches, on tho iron, or stools or boxes, or wherever they can sit, and pore studiously over their books or lessons until the, bell taps for them to return to forge and anvil. The school has attracted much at ten tion from those iutorested in educational ex periments here and abroad. Clar a Morris' Keynote of Nueces. Inter Ocean "Curbstone Crayons."

Then tho girl raised her hand, spoke lior one speech with a naturalness so new, and a power so fresh, and an intensity so in loaning with the occasion that it is a mild htn imeut to say that the audience was thrilled. "The speech was, in fact, a revelation oi rare power. And the newspnpor men men, ana wore shook hands, say ing to eaoh other, 'We will live to soo that girl one of the greatest players of our day.'

He Wins Portion of tho sWS.OOO Prise In the Louisiana SJtate Lot tery. (Hart Francisco (Cal.) Clironiclo, April 10th. Within the past two or thrco months largo prizes of the Louisiana State lottery havo been awarded in this State, notably that drawn by Thomas Klrhener the cap ital prize of 7ri,(KK-and the $10,1X10 prize won by John Martul, C. V. lioliblnsand U, W. Humm. And now comes the drawing of the second capital prize of fii.OOO of which Isidor Isaacs, of Modesto, has been awarded (5,000. Mr. Isaaas was in this city the other day, and said in conversa tion, that there was a peculiar circum stance in relation to his securing the lucky ticket. "In the first place," said he, "I sent to San Francisco for a ticket in the Louisiana State lottery, inclosing $1. I received no answer to my letter and so wrote again, Inquiring about it. The agent replied that he had sent tho ticket by mistake to Isidor Colin, but that I might call at the postof (Ire and get the loiter, as the ticket be longed to me, I went to the postoillce and did not find any loiter there for Isidor Cohn, and therefore wrote again to the agent, requesting him to either send me another ticket or refund my money." "Which did he do?" "He sent me the ticket numbered 58,203. for April 8th drawing the lucky one and right glad I am that the mistake was made, for it was only a little while before I received a dispatch, stating that I bad won a (5,000 prize," "What were your sensations on receiv ing the newsi" "Well, I guess I felt about as any poor man aocs wno suuueniv comes into pos session of a good round sum of money like that. I first turned hot and then cold, and then came a sudden conviction that the dis patch was not authentic. So I telegraphed to my brother who works In a clothing store in ban t ronclsco, to go to the agent and see if I had really won tbe prlzo. lie did so, and on receiving word from him that it was all right, l made a lively jump for my gripsack, boarded the train, and, on arriving in the city, made a bee-line for the agent's office after my $o,000." J. Boas cashed the check for the lnckv man, who left the city for Modesto In high glee, after having feasted ana wined nun self and friends to their hearts' content. Mr. Isaacs is a clothing store keener In Modesto, and has seen some nrettv hard struggles to maintain himself and keep up his business, under heavy competition there, but he is satisfied that, with the present comfortnblo addition to his little capital, ho will be able to Increase his stock and trade and became a guccesful merchant in that thriving town. The Iffuoraiice Which Prevailed Among; the Hlnvcs or tbe Mouth. New York Tribune. J "Do you know that there were uegroes, and I believe many white people in the south, who did not believe that Yankees, as tbe southerners called the Union soldiers dur ing the war, wore human beiugs meu like other nieni" said a southerner to n reporter yesterday. "Do you nieau to say that ignorance pre vailed to such an extent i" queried the re porter. "I most assuredly do. I was a schoolboy when the war broke out and lived In Wake county not many miles from Raleigh, N. C. It was considered a penal offense in those days to teach a negro to read. Yet they would bo compelled to take the rear s?ats in a country church on Sunday and bear tbe Bible expounded, an 1 were taught that hell and damnation would be their portion unless they really believed every word in the Bible words many of them could not spell, much less understand. There was a large slave holder near my youthful homo, and he owned about sixty negroes 1 noy wore as ignorant, for the most part, as hogs. Morality thoy knew not the meaning of. Many of the women followed the plough, and they wont barefooted winter and sum mer, unless occasionally on Sundays. The old family cook was a coal- black negroes named Cherry, and I remem ber now with delight the 'anions biscuits, buckwheat cakes and woffles she lifted from the griddles. My brother married the young mistress after the war. Well, 1 saw a skir mish or two myself about the close of thi war, but happened to be on a furlough at my country home, when Kilpatrick's cavalry and Sherman's Infantry pursued Johnson's famished, half-naked troops west of Italeigh. Every door was closed and every house barred as the troops passod by. The rich slave-owner had lied to the city, and by ac cident I happened to lie in his plantation house with many whites and blacks, who were trembling for their lives .when the last remnant of Wheeler's Confederate cav alry were passing, closely pursued by Kil patrick's Federal blue-coats. A skirmish oc curred in front of the house, when the first bluo-coats with sabres iu one hand and car bines in another dashed by after tbe 'Johnny Reus.' "'There's the Yankees. There's the Yankees!' cried some of us from behind tho closed windows. " 'Wharl Whnr's the Youkeesr asked the cook, Cherry. 11 'I don't see no Yankees,' said another col ored woman. "'Yes, those are Yankees wearing. blue coast and looking so nice,' said one of the many scared domestics of the slave-owner's house. " 'You can't fool me,' said Cherry. 'Them's not Yankees. Them's men like other folks. Whar's their horml I know Yankees have horns.' " lie Iirllverel the Whisky. ;ienry C. Ellis. J Have you seen Melville's Siberian relio from New York? I met Lieut.

"Dks. Sturkky &1'ai.kn, Dear Sirs: In April, 1881, 1 consulted you In reference to your Treatment In Inflammatory tiheu mutism. Eighteen years ago I discovered rheumatism in the eudsof my fingers; from that it gradually spread all over my body, settling in my feet in 1X70; and from that time to January, 18e0, 1 grew worse and worse, sutfcring nearly all the time in tense shooting pa In, prontrating me often for day, when the trouble settled in my left arm. "My arm lout all vitality, becoming as cold as if encased in ice and hanging at my title a heavy weifht. The muscles fell away to the bone, and my shoulder wasted till It became necessary to pad my dresses to wear thorn. In addition to this trouble my stomach was in a terrible condition, having refused all kinds of food for months, and I was starving on a low diet under the advice of one of Philadelphia's first physicians. After a careful examin ation of my case, your Dr. Starkcy said to me, '1 don t think I can do anything for you.' I had heard and read of the Oxygen so long that I was anxious to try it if only to get a little relief; so on April 8th, 1881, I began the OMUe Treatment, coming every day for awhile nnd then three times a week. The first nighL after inhaling the Compound Oxygen I had the first night s rest m months. Thlsgreatly relieved and encouraged me. After using the Treat ment a month I noticed a slightly changed feeling in my arm, but could not more any part of it. During tbe second month 1 could notice a decided Improvement In ray stomach and a littlemotion of the fingers. I then had the misfortune to fall down a flight of stairs, which threw meaway back and injured my arm seriously. I resumed the Treatment as soon as 1 was able to come to the ofllce, and by August, not- wllhnliinrllriff ijie fall. I found, bv the USB of the other arm. could move the lame one about an inch from the body and couia raise the shoulder slightly. In November I could lift my arm a little and the spots were not so painful. All this time my stomach was, improving and my lung trouble less troublesome. By Christmas I could eat almost everything placed before me; I had little or no nausea, and seldom vomited. My arm oegan to jtu oui ana the rheumatism.
