The award was made not upon style, or elegance of composition, but upon the beat pi;: ti.-al method presented, tlie most table and practical answer, im Wednesday, at tin; afternoon session of the Teachers' Institute in this city, the announcement" of the award was made. It was in favor oi assay "IL," with moid honora. !•■ mention for essay •*!" and favorable mention of essay "i" Tho winner proved to be Mrs. I". P. Osborn, a thoughtful ami accomplished young woman leacliiu^ the public school vi florin. I lie honorably mentioned essay was that of Mrs. Clara Felter Par son- uf Sacramento, Indeed, this lady's paper received one vote in the Board of Judges as first best, on the first ballot. « m iiio announcement being made Mrs, Osborn was called to the rostrum and read her paper as follows: The public school is, to-day, more than ever before, recognised as the medium through which we must reach aiu! mold the rising generation. \\ ben our country was yet but a group of colonies —when the cords which united Americans to their mother country were yet strong—but little national feeling had been developed. Hut when British oppression, persist ently waged, severed the tics that bound us to England, there was no longer any alternative; the spirit of an independent nationality was fora d to grow. Tho Btruggle, at first, wholly against oppression, soon became a struggle lor independi .. . '1 be tj ranny ■>!' < leorge the Third, and the blundering folly of his Parliament, cemented tho colonies into a sisterhood of States. Thus was a distinctive love of country developed in the colonists, who, now for the first time took the name ol patriots. •lust in proportion as the struggle was long and bitter did this patriotic feeling grow and strengthen. So, in tho school of bloody war our countrymen learned their first lest -si in patriotism. There was no need then of instilling this feeling into the minds of then- children. They breathed it witb the very air ami imbibed it in the recital of tho hardships and heroic deeds of their fathers. But timo has removed us from the lpiduro and softened its asperities. It i.ot appeal to the children of to-day as it did to the children of that day. Cir oumstances arc altered, so that our great est thinkers arc beginning to reci that the teaching of patriotism must henceforth form a distinctive part of our school work. The question then is, how shall this be most effectually done? While we may not agree in all the particulars as to the best method there is little doubt that we shall agree in the main. Let us premise that no spasmodic efforts will answer. They may not i.o without their use, i>.it must not be allowed to supplant constant and continued effort. < character-building is necessarily slow-. Aa "no man is suddenly either ex cellently good or extremely cvii," so no child is likely to become suddenly im bued with a spirit ot patriotism. "Home was not huilt in a day.'' It i< theieonstant dropping of water that wears away the stone. Hence, in all our school work, whenever opportunity lietly and unobtrusively drop a little seed that may grow, as the child grows, into a strong tree. The work must lie commenced in the child's first school years, for early im pressions are the most lasting. There is then no bias, no growth of an opposite character. The mind is like a well-pre pared field, just ready to receive good Me.l. The child looks up to the teacher, and has full confidence in what he says. rJutl I as be :i little more, definite as to ti»> means employed to g.dn our end. Our history is full of examples of men whose lovo of country was their ruling passion. Let as commend their course, and induce cur pupils to read and study their lives. on the other hand, we have examples of treason to our country. Let these be held up in their true Light, so that our boys and girls may feel that a traitor is despicable and treason odious. In teaching the sul eet of history numerous opportune occasions will pre sent themselves for imparting a most valuable lesson. For example. Washing tonal Valley forge, the partisan leaders in the South during the Revolution, the death of .Nathan Hale, tho Wehster- Hayne debate, Jackson's treatment of the iiulliricatioii doctrine In South Carolina the episode of Putnam's leaving his oxen hitched to the plow, while be hastened to the front with hi- gun, etc. These an.! similar U pics may be made the subjects of compositions by the oli i r pupils. such speeches or portions of thorn, as Washington's farewell address, Adams ' Patrick Henry's, and Webster's - V>eeommitted to memory, for reci by the pupils, the teacher in all cas Inn careful to >co that the spirit of the j le< c is comprehi nded. the teacher make a sele tion of pa triotic sentiments, or use the • i ono prepared by .Mrs. :i,,yt. and place one quotation on the board each week or oftener at hisldia Tetion.unUlall have been bo placed—the pupils copying them into their blaakbooksand committing them to memory. The whole school maybe required to one or two in concert, two br three - s week, or even every day. This Dot occupy more than two or three minutesat a time,and besidesaeoomplish nr main purpose ol creating and toa % a spirit of patriotism, it furnishes 11 valual le exercise in memory, enuncia tion, etc Some of our holidays may be made a n ans iii the end in view a I riday afternoon for the discussion of Mowing question: "Why do we irtii ol July?" "( ;ho the juipils a wi i k to study the question, let ting i uem understand that each one is ex -1 to have something to say. The w ill thus be thoroughly dis cussed, liiis will be the teacher's oppor tunity to impress the lact that the cele n means more than a grand parade, ! nnon or the iliiig of ban o tui breece. Washingt n's birthday tarnishes an other opportunity for recalling the stir md trying times of the formative ! overnmeui: and the more these times are recalled and dwelt upon the more cl larly will the children realize that Washington and bis compatriots en dured all thiugs that iiiev tnighl queath to posterity an independent country. Tims they will be led to ap preciate their inheritance, and to leel i;,a it would be no leas than basein gratitude not to be willing and ready to Bland up lor its noble institutions. i be ■ uthors' Day may be made t<> contribute, in no small degree, toward beg) ttiag a pride In our country's ! grentc-t glory —her sireat minds.

It is always "La Belle France." Notv.■ithstandine the proverbial fickle □essof the French, they have weathered the storms of a revolution and success fully pas* d the critical period of a change from a lonK-established monarchy to ■ republic. Their love of country in a large measure tided them over. Our flag is now rioatinsj over almost every scnooli.ouse in our State. What does it mean? Let that question be thor oughly discussed before the school and by the school. i Tra c the history of the flag and show : how the thirteen original stars have been toi .: forty-four now dot the field. It is tho emblem of freedom, it iloats | over neither serf nor slave. It is the flag <>l a great, free, peaceable and peace-lov ing nation, and h yet unconouerfcd ua i tion. These and kindred thoughts will kin dle in tfce child's mind a llamb which will grow brighter as he grows to com prehend more fully the true meaning of the "star-spangled banner." Then there are our patriotic songs and j national airs. Someone has said, "l>et : me write tho songs of a nation and 1 care uot who makes its laws." Think oi the tender associations awak ! ened in ILo breasts of the Germans and the French by tbe inspiring strains of "Her Wacht am Rhine" and the "Mar seillaise!" Such is the power of tho latter over tho French troops abroad—making tnem pine for home—that the playing of it is forbidden. If music has such influence over men, much greater has it over young and sus ceptible children? It is a power that should not i c disregar led. I nder topics ol" the limes should be iss dfrom day to day questions of I importance that arise in the conduct of public affairs, both of State and nation; because, aa a rule, the most intelligent citizens in a republic are the safest citi zensas well as the most patriotic. As discretion is the better part of valor, so conservatism is the better pert of patri otism. But the ignorant are seldom the rvutive. The infliction of a supposed wrong may cail forth a ridiculous manifestation of supposed patriotism. Hence our boys and gitlß should be led lo think upon public issues and take sides only as reason i directs. Passion and patriotism—patriotism that I will stand the test; patriotism that will in while the storms sweep over—are not formed in tbe same mold. V\ c need the sort of patriotism that will I prompt us to Bay. with benry Clay, "1 j wouid rather buriuiit than be President*" V, c want the love of country prized above the io\ c Of place. A true regard for our country and its institutions will eliminate from politics thee rruption which is now so preva lent. It seems to us that truth, right, hon i Bty and honor must ho made the corner stones of everj substantial structure of patriotism. Patriotism without ii a substructure would be much like re ligion without morality. In teaching the subject under discus sion there seems to be need of heeding the : Scripture injunction to be wise;;., serpents | and harmless as doves. The parents of many of the children in lour schools are of alien birth and axe quite ready to defend the institutions of their native land when th>,v are brought i into comparison with ours. A. case in point occurred in this county in preparing for Columbus hay. A little miss of li, whose parents are English, , ; said she could not cuter into tho spirit of tbe exercises. Thus, the very ones we should most 'like to inUuoncc come to us biased. To a and as far as possible remove this idice teachers must be careful and | discriminating; must bo wise as serpents to recognize the situation and harmless as doves not to uive unnecessary offense. Let us say in conclusion what, perhaps, wo should have said at the beginning; tbe teacher himself must be what he de sires iiis pupils to be -patriotic. FOR SWEET CHARITY. ! ~~ ! , I he Ball for the Benefit of the Sisters of Mercy a Success. An Immense Attendance and an En joyaMe Time for All—A Neat Sum IJoullzed. The Thanksgiving ball given at Turner Hall last evening for the beuoiit of the .sisters of Mercy was by long odds the Lttended and most successful social affair given tto (ar this season. The dancing lloor was so crowded as to | be even somewhat uncomfortable for the disciples ot terpsichore. The gallery and wall seats were all occupied by a throng I ■'.-tutors. In all there were nearly 500 persons crowded into the hall. Tho grand march commenced at 8:30 o'clock and dancing followed until early tiiis morning. The programme was an excellent one, comprising eighteen dances and three extras. J. 11. lieisch was tho lloor director, and s good one. Ho was assisted by the following gentlemen. ! comprising the Floor Committee: John ! Denny, T. F. Carolan, \V. F. Gormley, M. ,). Desmond, 11. l. Hyan and j O'Xeil. 1 'ii the Reception Committee were Jas. Longshore, Jr., U. D. Hastings, J. 1-. Mc oey, .i. .1. Moran, l. j. Mcilorry I and A. J. Wilson. An elegant table was spread for the guests and was well patronized. A tnr key dinner was also given in the aiter . which was equally successful. The table was in charge of the following la [iii X ,Me:-d.lines M. C. Kent, .). A. Jack- I sou, XL A. Francis, li. Brnoner, Burke, ■ Shields and Lewis, and Misses ivent. | Quinn, Murphy, lOimers and Trainor. The ice-cream booth was in charge of Mi>-iS. Devlueand the Children oi Mary. Aliases Fogarty, booting and several assistants dispensed lemonade to the per ', spiring darners. .Miss Evelyn Ryan presided over tho ' grab-bag. The ball will net a handsome sum for the Sisters and will be of great help to them iv their good work. Last Sad Rites. The funeral of tho late S. liurttTan quary took place yesterday afternoon from the residence of ins mother, Mrs. L. M. Tanqnary, at 141^ Third street. There was a large gathering of the dec-easel i young man's friends and relatives, and | the lioral offerings were many and beau tiful. TheLiidme Boat Club, of which tbe deceased was a prominent member, sent a floral piece representing a racing shell and bearing the word "Undine." The funeral ceremonies were impressive. The deceased was very well known here, ana was loved by ail. lie was only 21 years of see and was born iv Chico. Rifled a Trunk.

BERKLEY'S LADS WON. ; But the Scott & Gilberts Gave Them a Hard Race. One of the Hest Gnnies of Baseball That Has Been Witnessed Here In a Lous: Time. The Scott and Gilberts and the Stato ! University baseball team met yesterday I at Snowfluke Park and played ono of the ; most exciting games of ball that has been seen in this city since the professional I teams ceased giving exhibitions. The at j tendance was good, but would undoubt | edly have leen greater had not the lime of the game interfered with the turkey dinner hours of many. As it was, the University boys had quite a delegation of : their friends and college companions on j hand, and they exercised tfieir vocal or gans on class yells during the entire game. Their enthusiasm for the visiting team ! naturally excited the local club's ad mirers, and a dozen or more of the Sacra mento boys formed themselves into a squad and got up a shout lor tho Scott & < iilberts. T.,,- game was not without errors, of which there were quite a number, but there were also some very neat plays and a^>.<ts mad that would have done credit 1 to the best intielders of the l>i}, r league clubs. The Berkeley team was weak in one or two positions, but the club had some ex | cellent batters, and their timely work with tho ash won the victory. Browning, Heller and Sykes proved to be territic ! bailers and tirst-elass all-around players. . Their work in general was an important factor in the Berkeley victory. Cooney, the pitcher, bad plenty of speed and good curves, and although he was batted sharply at time-, he retained lent control throughout. The playing of Pace of the Scott <£ «.;!! mis shone out above that of all the rest oi iiis team. His backstop work was perfect, and oven the opposing players cheered him at times, tie seldom missi d a chance at si play, and threw the ball to :id base like a shot. V\ ben the ninth inning began tlv? Scott iv LiUberts were two runs behind, but by some good hitting and luck they tied the bcore before their side was retired. The University boys then came in for i their hist turn, and although the local i [club players tried hard to keep them Irom scoring, they could not accomplish • the task. The visitors placed a man on first base and a hard drive into left center field by Browning scored the winning run. With practice the Scott *'c Gilberts could defeat the University team, do I doubt. They have excellent individual | players, but there is a noticeable lack of team work. Manager Stafford says be ; proposes to keep his men together, and with practice he expects to have a i I strong club that will make tilings lively j for professional team:;. The University | team members speak very highly of the treatment they received at the bands of I their opponents. They wore banqueted at the expense of the Scott A Uilberts and taken to and from the grounds in a tine four-in-hand. t'oUowingis the ■ SCOTT A;: I l.i'.l :;: Is. A.B. 8.8.ET.5.8. P.O. A. K. E.

Adjoining tho meat market of Claus A- X runs, at Seventeenth and I streets, is a small building in which the employes of the shop have their Bleeping quarters. When they awoke yesterday morning they discovered that they had very little left in sight for which to be thankful. The front and rear doors of their domi cile were standing wide open, and the ! biting north wind whistled through the ; hallway. Their clothes were gone, and with them most ot their worldly posses sions. One man found lie was out $■'! /iO and his watch, while another had been touched oil' to the extent of 541 and a diamond rint;. Subsequently the cloth ing was found in the yard where the burglars had thrown tbe several garments alter emptying the pockets. There were two do^s on the pieniises, but it would seem that tbe burglars had hypnotized them, for —although usually very watchful and noisy when anyone goes about there—they kopt very quiet. Next!
