Stecbbxvillb, O., June 24.—In a few
days ail tho schools in Steubenville will be
closed for the sntnmer vacation, and the
boys and girls will have an opportunity to
recuperate and go at their studies in the
fall with renewed vigor. The summer
vacation is a good thing and should be
made a little longer so as to extend into
the middle of September and clear beyond
the heated term. A prominent pedagogue
ia this city said that the teachers could
stand the hot weather, oeeause if there
was any air going they could go up to a
window and get the benefit of it, but the
scholars had to remain in their seats and
just bake and melt. All this week exer
cises have been going on in the public
schools and Thursday night the Com
mencement exercises of the High School
was held in the Opera House. Of
course the bouse was crowdod aud

simply suffocating. Last Monday night

High School were held in the Opera
House, aud next Wedac#day night those
of St. Peter’s High School will be held.
Then the school buildings will all bo
closed, and for two months the boys aud
girls will be free from care.
The Fourth of July celebration in this
city is an assured success. Enough money
has been raised to defray all the expense,
and the committee is getting everything in
shape. There will be music, speaking,
reading the Declaration of Independence,
a comic parade, an exhibition by the fire
department, a picture exhibition, tire
works, etc., etc. It will be a gala day in
Steubenville, and tho Columbian Fourth
will be observed in a fitting manner.
