The secretary, Miss Brady, then proceeded to read her annual report, supplementing ft with Many verbal explanations and incidents of the past year’s experience, making it a very interest- ing paper.

Mr. Lovejoy, of the committee on teachers, read fro the proceedings of the committee in relation to the case of Miss Chadwick a letter of Mr. Birney that the lady was sick on the day of the examina- ton, together with the statement of Mr. Lovejoy that the lady was on the street at the time, and a resolution referring the subject to the board. Mr. Birney presented a minority report that the lady’s condition rendered it impracticable for her | to attend an examination for nine hours, and cited @ number of instances in which candid ites falling to pass the regular examinations were allowed to main as teachers, Heclalmed that there should | fair play, and ‘that the same consideration should be extended to Miss Chadwick and Miss Longfellow. He sald that exceptions haa been made in the cases of candidates for the first di- vision (Mr. Lovejoy’s) and seventh division, repre- sented on the committee by Mr. Johnson. Mr. Joinson sald that the paper was an attack | on the character of the board, and he did not pro- pose to let It pass by unnoticed, and asked the su perintendents as to the truth of the statements. Superintendents Wileon and Cook each made statements in effect that the parties continued after failure to pass exatniuation had not previ- ously been In the seuools, and consequently the Tuie did not apply. ME. LOVEJOY ASKS FOR AN INVESTIGATION, Mr. Lovejoy sald the statement should ve ex- amined, an they shoul know whether or not the statements were correct, and moved that the sub- Ject be referred to Messrs. Warner, Baum and Cragin tor report. Mr, Warner opposed the motion, saying the sub- Ject Was one which should not be $0 dignifie |. He had heard reflections cast upon the board by the second division trustee from Ume totime, and was now tired of them. ‘The best disposition to make of the subject was to lay It on the table. As to the teachers In the second division, he had seen it stited in the papers as coming from Mr. Birney {substitutes could not be procured. He (Mr. ror) had the following day inquired of ‘Su- ntendent Wilson and ascertained that Mr, | ‘ney had not applted to hin (Mr. Wilson), and that there were substitutes to be had. For some Teason there was a personal feeling existing be- tween them. It was about time, If there Was to be harmony In the board, that’ measures were taken to bring {t about; but they could have no harmony if the trustees-are to sit still and have their fellow members reflected upon. Mr. Lovejoy said that the statements of the su- petintendents were satisfactory to htm and he be- Heved to Mr. Johnson also; but te would lie to see an investigation. MESSRS, WARNER AND RROOKS OPPOSED TO AN IN- ‘VESTIGATION. Mr. Warner sald they did not need or want an investigation. It would dignity the subject too much. As for the examination, he had taken the trouble to examine the papers, and had never seen judgment by default. “Carpenter agt. M: for defendant. Valmont agt. Constantin for defendant.
