A PROPOSITION TO DROF HER NAME FROM THE ROLLS SOCIAL QUESTIONS DISCUSSED BY THE TRUSTEES THE PROPOSED NEW SCHOOL BUILDINGS—THE QUESTION OF WRITTEN EXAMINATIONS. At the meeting of the school board last night Mr. Johnson presented the resignation of Annie E. Gary-Waddleton, a colored teacher in the Sum- ner building. “I wish to state,” sald Mr. Johnson, “that there ts no such name on our rolls, and I am constrained to ask this board not to accept the resignation, but drop the name of the teacher from the rolls, I am sorry to say that the lady has fallen from grace.” Mr. Johnson statea fur- ther that he had called at her house and learned that. she was about to become a mother. He was further informed by the mother of the teacher that she had been married fourteen months. The man to whom it was claimed she was married had called on him on the following day and stated that she was not married to him, “Here ts his card.” said Mr. Jonnson, and he held up the business card of J. P- Waddleton, jeweler, 13th and H streets. “Mr. Johnson sifd if she were not married that ghe ought to be dropped, anyway; and if she were married she had been falsifying’ the pay-rolls by signing her malden name, and should be dropped for that reason.

Mr. Ross said that na case like this he thought no harm would be done any one if the board quietly accepted the resignation.

Johnson said that in that case she had falsi- fled the pay roll. “There 1S no oath about it,” sald Mr. Ross, “But honor sir!” exclaimed Mr. Jonson, ‘Mr. Ross said he did not think the trustees sat there to visit vengeance upon anybody. Mr. Fish having suggested that they neither ac- cept the resignation nor drop her name unui! the matter was further investigated, Mr. Johnson sald In that case she Wouldstill remain a teacher. “She | cannot teach In my division,” he went on, “the | other teachers would not have her.” ‘A motion by Mr. Koss to accept the resignation ‘Was carried, Mr. Johnson voting against it, CHANGES IN TEACHRESULIS.

Washington Materially Strengthened the Result of the Meeting Yester- Ye ‘The second dag’s meeting of the national base ee in New York yesterday resulted in the ion of Indianapolis as the eighth league city. ‘The offer of that city to purchase the St. Louis hold she St. Louis players the offer made by In- dianapolis was treated as an offer to the league. ‘It was also voted to offer the Kansas City club $6,000 and the privilege of retaining certain players. - The latter delegation telegraphed home and got an answer refusing the offer and naming other terms, agreeing to take $4,000 with the right to reserve all their players except Myers, Bassett and_Whitney, ‘This proposition was’ rejected will it any ceremony, and Kansas City wired that could accept the $6,000 offered or noth- ing. The chances are they will accept. This con- eluded all of the business except that pertaining to Kansas City, and an adjo ‘until to morrow morning was taken, ‘WASHINGTON'S LUCK. ‘The Washington delegation demanded some of the strong players and threatened to get out of the Jeague unless it should get them, arguing that it was for the interest of all concerned to make the clubs in the league as nearly equal in strengt h as possible and not leave one club hopelessly Weak. It was positively decided that the star players, Lupe and Glasscock, should go to In- Manapolts that they could not be sold for a year. Although President Hewitt was somewhat disappointed aie either of these met he was, Gani by romise of Whitney, Al Myers, nnelly and O'Brien for the sum of $2,500, ‘Vhese men will prove a great uddition to the ‘h of the home beep With good manaj nt the Statesmen ought not to be cer- tain of last place, Whitney is expected to prove stronger than ever as a pitcher under the new ito ata ag henal hae i ation and mn ve the’ ‘a Rayers 1s destined for short stop, which position he is capable of Mlling nearly as well as Glasscock.

PROSPECTIVE TROUBLE. The ball players who have been lounging about the corridors of the Fifth Avenue hotel for the past two days assert very positively that several of the players Indianapoils has on its list will not sign ap Indianapolis contract unless they receive their ‘Season's Salary in advance, or it {s placed in some bank subject to certain conditions. A letter from Glasscock was shown the Press reporter this af- ternoon, in which the short stop says he will not laa! for iess than $3,000, and that the money must ® placed in some responsible party's hands. Denny and Boyle are said to have made a similar statement. The cause for all this ts that certain people who are interested in the new club were pecans, connected with the old league club In that city during the season of 1877, when near- ly all of the players lost from $200 to $700 of their salaries. Since then Indianapolis has been on the players’ blacklist, and when it was announced in the corridors this afternoon that Indianapolis was admitted there was a bitter look of disappoint- Tent on the face of every player present, Louis Newberger, the chairman of the present India- hapolis delegation, openiy proclaimed in the meet- ing to-day that he’ woutd pay no player more than the Umit, which 1s $2,000. ‘This Will be bad news. for Boyle, Denny and Glasscock, asin torical KNIGHTS OF THE GoLDEN FAcLE.—The Grand Castle of the Knights of the Golden Eagle met last night at Elks’ hall, Pennsylvania avenue, and the following grand officers were elected: Past Grand Chief, Jared D, Bitting, of No. 1; Grand Chief, E.

Bradley s condition was not so favorable this morning, as he passed an uncom- fortable night. He was So week that he fell to the floor while attempting to walk. Mr. Bradley was born March 224, 1808, on New York avenue, above 17th street, afd was the son of Hon. Abraham Bradley, of Connecticut, who was the First Assistant Postmaster General under the early administrations from Washington down, to that of Gen. Jackson, who removed him in 1829. After a preliminary education in the schools of this city, he was, at an early age, sent co Yale col- lege, where he graduated in the class of 1821. Re- turning to this city, he was employed for three Years, from 1821 to 1824, in the office of the clerk Of the Supreme Court of the United States under Mr. Caldwell. At the same time he studied law with Mr. Caldwell, and subsequently with the late Richard L. Coxe. He was admitted to the bar of Montgomery county, Md., at Rockville, in November, 1824. Mr. Bradley has often had a hearty aoe over the manner in whic) he was admitted. Presenting himself to the judges, he Was told to meet them at the hotel, and did so, The chief justice then asked under whom he had studied, and receiving Mis answer said that they ought to know he was qualified. ‘The chief Justice then asked: “Can you carve u e turkey?” ‘To which Mr, Bradley ‘answered es. ithe chief Justice, Placing. the knife and, fork in the asplranvs hatids, polnted to the turkey on Which they Were about to dine, and Mr. Bradley, Who Was a master hand, soon had tt neatly carved. ‘The chiet justice then sald: “Young: we will admit you,” nd that was all there was of it. Mr. Bradley was admitted to the bar of this Dis- trict In April, 1825, and on December 5th of the same Year he married Miss Luey Sherman Tuttle, of New Haven, Conn. By this marriage theré ‘Were five children, but two of whom, Mr. A. Thomas Bradley and Mrs. ‘Rev. Dr. Williams, of Baltimore, are living, with nine grandchildren. About four Years ago Mr. Bradley married 4s his second wife Miss Mary Harris, whom he defended on a charge Of murder tn 1865, securing her acquittal. Mr. Bradley was then quite a venerable man, and the Marriage, With the romantic cireumstances at- tending it, created ‘something of a social sensa- jon, : Mr. Bradley, on entering the? legal profession, almost iminediately stepped to the front rank, his commanding presence, fluent tongue and well- stored brain making lin always a formidable an- tagonist, It was not long before he was regarded as one Of the most brilitant men at the bar, par- Ucularly In criminal cases, As early as 1831 he was the attorney for the old corporation of Wash- ington, and served in that office for over a quarter of a ceutury under Mayors Gales, Weigitman, Seaton and others. The only other public office he held was that of a notary public, He was for years an arent whig, a great adml- Ter of Webster and Clay, and he presided at many of the whig mass meetings here and attended sev- eral of the national conventions of the party as a delegate trom thts Districy, He was in olden times the hier marshal of many of te processions, and held that positon on the occasion of the laying of the corner-stone of the Washington monument. He Was also for many years u member of the Washington Monument society. He was one of the incorporators of the Franklin Insurance com- Pany, and also of tne National Bank of the Re- pubile. He had in his day the conduct of many of the leading cases in the District, and itis said that in no case of homicide in which he appeared for the defendant was there ever a conviction of murder. He Was counsel in the celebrated Gardiner case, in ‘the case of Joliu H. Surratt for conspi in the Lincoln assassination plot, In the celebrated Wylle- Brown case, and it may be said that prior to the war he was in all the {roportant cases, Among those who studied law with Mr. Bradiey was the Pees E. Norris and many others who are now at the bar. Frou 115 Les To 161 Les. TO THE CUTICURA REMEDIES I OWE MY ‘MY HEALTH, MY HAPPINESS, AND MY LIFE. Adsy never passes that I do not think and speak Kindly of the Curicusa Remepirs. Seven years ago all ofadozen lumps formed on my neoz, ranging in size from 8 cherry stone to an orauge. The large ones were frightful to look at, and painful to bear; people turned aside when they saw ie, in disgust, and I was ashamed to be seen on the street, orin society. Pbysi- cians and their treatment, and all medicines failed to do any good. Ina moment of despair I tried the Cur Touma Reepres—Curricoma, the great Skin Cuneand Coricuna Soar, an exquisite Skin Beautifier, extern ally, and Curicuna Resotvent, tho new Blood Puri- fier, interally ; the small lamps (as I call them) gradu- ally disappeared, and the large ones broke, inabout two weeks, discharging lane quantities of matter, leaving two slight scars in my neck to-day to tell the story of my suffering. My weight then was one hun- dred and fifteen sickly pounds: my weight now is one hundred and sixty-one solid healthy pounds, and my height is only five fect five inches. In my travels I praised the Curicuna Remepres, North, South, East and West, To Curicuna Remxpres I owe my health amy happiness and my life. A prominent New York druggist asked me the other day, ‘Do you still use tho Curioura Remxpies; you look to be in perfect health?” My reply was, “I do, and shall always. I have never known what sickness is since Ieommenced using the Cuziouna Remepres.” Sometimes I am laughed at by praising them to people not acquainted ‘with their merits, but sooner or later they will come to their senses and believe the samo as those that uso them, as dozens have whom I have told. May the time come when there shall be # large Curicuna Supply House in every city in the world, for the benefit of humanity, where the Coricuna Rewzpres shall be sold ony, 90 that there will be rarely a need of entering a drug store.
