THE BOARD OF TRUSTEFS ADJUSTING ITSELF TO THE NEW ORDER OF THINGS, At the meeting of the board of school trustees Jastevening Mr. Curtis,from the special commit- tee appointed to draw up regulations for the government of the schools in conformity with the Instruction given the board by the Commissioners in various letters, stated that the committee had not agreed upon a report, but with the consent of his colleagues, Messrs. Brooks and Clark, be would present a report which he had drawn up, and which bore only his signature. This report discussed the position of the board; declared that It was of no practical importance whether the powers exercised by the board were con- ferred directly by law or delegated by the Com- missioners, and approved the suggestion of the Commissioners to have a superintendent of school property. and suggested that Normal and Miner school graduates be exempted from the examinations proposed for applicants ior teachers’ position. “Mr. Curtis offered a resolu- Hon providing an amendment to the rules, pre- yeriblng modes of examining and appoliiting teachers in accordance with the plan sugges! by the Commissioners. This, he considered, _| Wes the only change now necessary in the rules, Mr. Brooks submitted a report over his signa- ture setting forth that it would not conserve the best interests of the schools to have the present rules changed, and that the board should have & knowledge ‘of the detailed expenditures for schools, Alter some discussion St was decided to have both reports lie over for the present. Mr. Curtis’ resolution was, however, accepted by the other members of'the committee and adopted by the beard, as the action was neces- sary in order to keep the school machinery in motion.

LOCAL BUTCHERS WHO WANT TO DRIVE IT FROM THE MARKET. The Butchers’ Protective association held a meeting at Nephuth’s hall, 9th street, last even- ing, Mr. J. K. Kelly, president, and Mr. J. W. Cotter, secretary. Mr. Robert Smith, from a cominittee to visit Baltimore, reported that the Butcher's union of that city numbered 600, and they were united In their opposition to Chicago beef and in favor of no alf-way business, ‘Mr. Smith said that it was claimed that enough cattle could not be had to supply the market outside the Chicago slaughtered meat, and inquired if that was so. Mr. W. 8. Hoge said thero was no difficulty in getting cattle, except that there were not so many now neat by. They could be had in ample quantities in southwest Virginia and Kentucky. ‘Mr. Suuiih said the Baltimore butchers had ssion arose as to how toget rid of beet, and itwas urged that it be not that the pork, butcher's journeymen by resolving not to handle it were driving it out of the market; that ifthe butchers would sell it only as inferior meat there would soon be little of it brought here; that in western cites, where merchants saw how it damaged trade, it had been driven out, and if the journeymen beet butehers jomed'the association started by the Pork butchers none of it would be handled, Mr. Dugan moved that they sign an agree- ment ne to buy any Chicago meat after thirty days trom date. After a spirited debate the motion was lost by a tie vote. ‘On motion of Mr. Brown it was decided to ap- point five delegates to attend the national con- vention at St. Louis, , Mr. MeGee moved that the journeymen beef butchers be requested to join the journeymen pork butchers association, and this motion was adopted.

Asthe sound of the wagon wheels ceased a faint gleam of light, as if a match had been struck and suddenly extinguished, shot from an upper ‘window of the cottage. The next moment a third- story window was cautiously raised anda man’s head ‘appeared. “Is that you, Bill?” cautiously uttered the man at the window. “Yes everything is all right,” said the driver of the ‘wagon, who had dismounted from the vehicle and was hiding behind a tree-box. At this momenta third figure appeared upon the scene. It was that of a policeman, who had observed the stoppage of the wagon and the mysterious signal at the window. “Do you see any lights down stairs?” queried the man # the window. “Ne the rope and come on.” For a moment the head at the window disappeared, and when it was again thrust out an excited voice ex- claimed: “Iv’sall up with us, Bill!” “Great Scott! What's the matter?” “Why, the landlady must have expected that Twas about to Jump my board bill, for she has nailed my trunk to the floor.
