SCHOOL BUILDINGS NOT TO BE USED AS DORMI TORIES MARCH 4TH. The committee on bulldings submitted a re- Fort on the proposition to use the schools on the 4th of March as dormitories. The commit- tee recommended the adoption of the following resolution, offered by Mr. Lovejoy :—“ That the board appreciates the prepress, of every citizen exerting Limself to the utmost in extending the warmest welcome and securing the comfort of the visitors at the national capital at the tn- auguration ceremonies, but the dedication of school buildings to any but school uses has bever taken piace, not even to afford shelter to the wounded during the war, and while as individuals we are in sympathy with the ob- ject of the committee on comfort, we do not feel authorized 18 a board of school trustees to devote the sel.ool bulidings to any other than er eae ase.” Mr. Curila stated that he would Lot oppose the adoption of the resolu- Won, for he had understood from the chatrman of the committee of pubile comfort that It was Possible the use of the buildings would not be Tequired.

SCHOOL CONCERTS. The resolution from the commitiece on music that no sub-board shall authorize local school concerts Without the consent of the board, was taken up. Mr. Smith warmly defended the giving cf school concerts, and instanced that in the seventh division they were made quite a feature, and gave a stimulus to the schools. Mr. Middleton sald this resolution was not in- tended to interfere with the annual concerts, abd that what induced him to offer It was the fact that recently tae usual studies of the Schools were interfered with. He remarked that Prof. Daniel a few months ago called on hin for instiuctions, and ke to!d him to follow the eplied that Mr. Wilson, the superin- tendent, had directed him to prepare for concerts in the first, second and taird districts, and he was left in blissful ignorance while the pupils were being drilied for the concerts. Superiniendent Wilson said that Mr. Daniel wes in error as to the third district, and that in the first and second districts the authority of the trustees Was obtained. Mr. Brooks sald the concerts should not be allowed to Interfere with the studies In the schools, but {t had been found that they awakened an Interest in the schools. Mr. Curtis remarked that he took a warm interest Ip the concerts, but he would not have them interfere with the studies, although they were somewhat of an incentive to the puplis. He suggested an amendment by adding, “except during the closing month of the school year.” Mr. Middteton accepted the amendment, and he report was adopted. SCHOOL FURNITURE. The resolution offered at the last meeting re- questing tue Commissioners not to purchase any additional school furniture known as the “Noble school furniture,” as in the opinion of the 'd It is not the kind best adapted to school purposes was taken up.

This was before the meet- ing held at Willard Hall, and no proposition ‘was made to apply the fund otherwise tnan as Stated above, and for the reason that the mat- ter had been thoroughly discussed by the em- Pployes generally before the meeting ia the office was held, and it was the universal opio- fon that, owing to the extreme severity of the Weather at that time, {t would be better that we should take what money we could immedi- ately command and commence work at once, as by purstiing any other course several days micht elapse before relief could be afforded to inany peopie who at the tims were known to persons In the oflice to be in a sulfering ccndition, Jn pursuance of this uoder- standing and of these instructions by the mé ing the committee immediately commenc: thelr labors, aud while the meeting at Willard Hali Was Iu progress our comimtitee was in Yarious port ons of the city, relleving such as were founu W y: and on New Year's day, g it difficult Co have toel delivered oy tae the gentlemen nired a furniture ‘d wood and coal to U aud deltve | tent of thetr abitity todo so.

SERVE ALL ALIKE.—E/itor Star:—On looking into the Police Court this morning I found a poor man belng harried because his pavements were Lot promptly cleaned. This may have been proper enough; but on coming out of the court 1 found the pavement on the opposite Side of the street uncleaned. The pavement on Pennsylvania avenue, between 1st and 34 sts.— government property—was not cleaned. The Pavcments of many other rich men were still locked with snow. Why should the poor be prosecuted when the government has notemet he requirement of the law? Justitia Frar. Brass RinGs ror $2 Each.—This morning, in the Police: urt, a white man named Charles Bryan was charged with swindling a young man named Charles C. Clark, by sclifng him a ring for $2 which he represented to be fold, but which was made cf a base metal. . Clark testified that Bryan apy roeched. aim on 9th St, Monday, and asked him if he wanted to buy @ gold ring, and witness flaally bought it for $2, and immediately afterwards saw him trying to Sellaring to another man, and came to tha conclusion that he was a swindler, and had him arrested. A jeweler named Haase tested the ae in court and pronounced it brass. Sev- eral other rings which were found on him were tested and found to be of the same character. Allof the rings had the initials of defendant engraved In them, which was probably done to lead persons to belleve his statement that he ‘ot the ring as present, but was hard up and ‘ad tosellit. The case was sent to the graud Jury; bonds $300. He was also charged with a3- Saulling Odliver Breen, who arrested him.
