rc selves as being highly gratified with
ay the good beginning, and both look
C. forward to a successful term. There
to is no reason why a child should not
') get a good common school education i
at the public school here, as well as
elsewhere. There are five teachers, t
lay all capable of teaching the classes s b
i- signed to them. Prof. Roberts, as all
las know, is a graduate of the State Uni- ni
in versity at Baton Rouge. Mr. S. B. C
:Or Kennedy, who has been assigned the n'
new room just added to the school. is
a graduate of the Southwestern Pres
'- byterian University at Clarksville, in
9 Teun., which institution ho attended se
d. for four years, graduating with the ar
an degree of Batchelor of Philosophy. n
ii, The young ladies have all had the ad- ge
e, vantages of collegiate courses, and b
their former experience fits them for w'
the duties of the coming year. We Oi
have no doubt that Prof. Roberts will
ag give the same general satisfaction this
a- session as last session, and that the
y public school will prosper under his
V management, as heretofore. At any th
rate, we hope it will.

THE DEWEY RECEPTION.
As predicted by the Banner-Demo
crat, the reception tendered the people
of Lake Providence, and of East Car
roll parish generally, on board the mag
nificent steamer, Dewey, by Capt. Lee
Cummins and wife, on Friday night of
last week, came up to all expectations;
20 for the well-known hospitality of both
the captain and his charming wife are
proverbial in this section, as well as all
ay along the river, and everyone looked
forward to an evening of pleasure on
board the elegaut steamer. The
Dewey lamded here ahout 8 o'clock in
the evening, and was boarded by a
large assemblage, both young and old,
who were greeted by the smiling face
of Mrs. Cumminus, the more sober
elsided face of Capt. Lee, and the
TS always good-humored Fred Hiner.
orth Mrs. Cummins and the Captain ap

At- the boat, and mirth and merriment
old reigned supreme. The band didn't
7th, play "Annie Rooney," but it rendered
will some of the most ravishing strains, so
over sweet and inspiring, that the editor's
eye, Methodist foot couldn't keep still,
lth, strange to say; and even old man Jim
7th Dunn felt so enthused, that he tripped
ri the light fantastic as nimblyss the edi
At. tor used to do before the war (the
at. Cuban war.) Those who did not
tof dance found pleasure in promenading
the up and down the long cabin, or enjoy
the Ing the soft wooing of the evening
bio breeze on the guards. Delicious ices
and refreshments were served in a side
iny room, and it is useless to say that they
were freely indulged in by all. At
the hour of 12-the noon of night
ole the band played "Home Sweet Hlome,"
oat the dancers bade Capt. and Mrs. Cum
the mins good night, and all wended their
ad- way homeward, after spending one of
ol- the most enjoyable evenings of the
summer season.
The Dewey reception was attended
th by all classes of our people, from the
ok merchant to the small boy. Among
re the business element of our people
or Capt. Cummins stands well; and the
immense discharge of freight by the
as Dewey and Julia every week attest
the fact that they do their share of the
business.
ll In common with the entire commu
Snity, the Banner-Democrat extends to
B. Capt. and Mrs. Cummins, and to the
1e new Captain Hliner, a thousand thanks
is for this manifestation of their gener
a- one hospitality, and assures them that
, in our hearts there will always be a -
d soft spot for them. May the Dewey
and the Julia always do a large busi
ness, and may the gentle lady who
graces their cabins always continue to
d be as prepossessing in her charms and
r womanly accomplishments as she was
e on Friday night of last week.
No flowers, please. D
e THE JEWISH NEW YEAR.
Last Monday, September 24th, was
the Jewish New Year, which was ob.
served by our Jewish merchants by
the closing of their stores and the
keeping of the day according to the
custom of their people. The Jewish
Nqw Year varies in date each year,
according to the new moons. The
Jewish calendar is computed by the
uew moons, of which there are thir
teen in our year, so that their new
year will fall next September on the
13th of the month. It varies any.
where from Sept. 1st to Sept. 25th, but
very seldom comes in any other
month, sathough sometimes io the lat
ter part of August. The Jewish cal
endar dates from the beginning of
creation, which is considered to have
taken place about 3760 yearse and 8
months before the Christian era. The
present year, which began last Mon- a lar
day, is 5661. It is always observed as and
a holy day, a day of rest, when the ex
change of new year cards takes place
between the Jews, and the invocation
of blessings upon each other. I
On Tuesday of next week, Oct. 3rd. will
the Jewish merchants will close at 6 Dew
p. m. and remain closed until Wednes- Bend
day at 6 p. m., which is their day o This

It is reported that the Valley Queen
will run in opposition to the steamer
Dewey in the New Orleans and
Bends trade, leaving on the same day.
This is done for the purpose of trying
to freeze out the Dewey, and the plan
ters and business mene should prevent
it if possible. The merchants of New
Orleans should not forget that Capt.
Cummins did not ask for any bonus
of $500 a week as other owners of
boats did, but simply asked for their
good will and support, which was
promised, and which promise should
be lived up to by the business men of
the Cresecent City., If they will do
this, we will have a boat all the year
round out of that city. Give your
