THE NORMAL SCIIOOL, WIHLRY 48 TUH DALANOB] 0 ihe EPF of The Tribune, Cu10460, Bept. 14.—The protracted gt over tho Normal School Iy discreditablo to tho coun- ty, aud the late nctlon of the Commissioners in returning to the Board of Education Messrs. Lewis and Harms, and thus continulng the lock, reflecta little eredit on that boly, The insane snd dogged zesl with which Mr, Lewis advocates the coutinuancs of Mr. Want- worth as Frincipal can berdly bo accounted for on the ground ¢f superlor quallfications, when the opponents of Mr. W, offer to unite on any qualitied man who may be presented by the other sfde. The recret may rest in some complications sesulting from the manner In which the Normal was established at Englewood, and Its manage- ment ainee: all best known, doubtless, to Messra. Lewis and Wentworth, 3 From 1800 to 1873 the Township Treasurer's books of Schonl Distrivt No. 2, at Englewood, ahnw $38,523.33 of Londs lssued by Mr. Lemls and pald out_of money ralsed Ly tax on sald District No. 3; while but 813,217,575 of the pro- cecds of sall bonda ever passed through the hands of sald Treusurer, as showu by his buoks, This, as (L will be scen, leaves a balance of 3,407.59, about which afl the liooks are silent. 1t 18 urged that the bouke of the Clerk down to thegreat flre were burned, But this wonld be unlmportant, provided the husiness had been lemally done, by passing the money re- fulting from the sale of the bonds through the Townahlp ‘Treasurer, ns the law required; ns neither his houks nor vouchers were destroyed. It 1s possible thue Mr. Wontworth miglht be able to ussist the recollection of Mr. L.

An adjourned meeting of cftizens resiling on and near Western avenue, and desirous of pro- curing a sewer on that street, was held last evenine (n Campbefl flall, corner Van Buren street and Camphell avenue, Mr, E. H, Jellrics inthe chalr. It appears that the sewer on Western avenue is completed from tho river to Fourteenth street, and that an appropriation hos been maae to continue the diteh north as far as Harrison street; but the $17,000 necessa- ry for the latter part of tho work is not to be reached except §n tite shape of vertiflcates glven by the Board of Public Works, and payable fn ot year without interest, The object. of the movement, of which fust evenfug’s meeting Wwas i purt, is to get the certiticates disposed of, 80 that the scwer may at onco be built. Ex-Ald. Campbeil, from o Cuinmitteo on TFinuuce, reported that he bad seen several peo- ple from wiom hie ¢xpected to obtain subserip- Uons, but none of them hud taken hold, Mr. 8, W. Ruwson, from the Executiye Com- mittee, reported the form of a certificats which the Board would fssue, and sald he would take 85,000 worth of them hlmself. Alr. George Cudwell repurted that ho had not met with fulr success ingetting subscriptions, and wus confident of securing subscrlbers to $1,000 worth of certitlvates, Mr. Rawson sald that o had no_doubt the whole sum of $12,000~—beslde his own subserip- tion—voulld be pliced (f o subscription of, say, $500 was ralsed to pay tho futerest, and then work could commence” at ouce. e would take 1t upon himself to promiss that, if the persons Iuterested wounld accure 1,000 subseriptivn to the certltleates mud $500 tor lutorest, he would see the sewer put In. Mr. Cadwell veported that he Tind taken $65 subseription forinterest. Additional sums were then called vut by the gentlemen present until about $200 was raised, when the matter was relesated to u committee conslsting of Messrs, Wright, Cudwell, Sage, Medbusy, Lfunt, Bagar, and Rawson. Mr, Cadwell wai ' elected Trease urer of the fund, Mr. Rawson exfilnlned that the contractor had Leen spoken to about holding n portion of the certificutes, and would probably agree te do so. If e did so agree, the speaker suid_he had so much conlidence in the etforts of the Committee, thutt he would take it upon himself to aunounce to them that the work on the sower would be- gin at once—probably Momday. The nnnounce- ment was greeted with muchcheering and gen- eral sutistaction, ‘Fhe n.ceting then adjourncd to Baturday evenlug at § o'clock at the same place, THE EXPOSITION.
