Will Be Offered a Subordinate Tench- ersh ip — If He Declines He Will Be Dismissed. An important meeting of the committee on normal and high schools of the board of school trusteees was held at the Frank- lin building yesterday afternoon, at which all the members were present except Mrs. Stowell, who was kept away by illness. ‘Those in attendance were Trustees Wilson, in the chair; Harries, Whelpley, Barnard and Bruce. The sole question under con- sideration related to the case of Prof. C. M. Lacey Sites, principal of the Eastern High School. As a result of general dis- satisfaction against the administration of Mr. Sites the committee some time ago requested his resignation, to take effect June 30. Mr. Sites’ Friends Heard. Yesterday's meeting was for the purpose of hearing teachers and friends interested in the retention of Mr. Sites. Bishop John F. Hurst and Rey. Dr. Luther Wilson made arguments in support of Mr. Sites’ administration, and asked particularly that he be kept in office for at least six months longer, in order to coffvince the authorities ot the entire merit of his method of in- struction and discipline. Subsequently the committee gave a hear- | ing to Mr. F. F. Swartzell, Mr. J. P. Ger- ry and Miss Ida Daly, teachers in the Eestern High School, who claimed to rep- resent the entire faculty of that school, in an earnest desire for the retention of Mr. Sites. These tedchers presented a petition, | signed by 249 pupils in the school, testify ing that they had nothing to condemn and all to commend in the administration of Mr. Sites. They also presented a petition, signed by neariy all the teachers in the High School. This petition recites that the contemplated retirement of the prin- cipal affects not only Mr. Sites persorially, Lut also the school interests of the entire | eastern section of the city. Therefore, they petition the board “to postpone action in the premises until there has been a thor- cugh and impartial investigation Into the facts relating to the management and polictes of the said schooi under Mr. Sites’ supervision.” The Committee Firm. The meeting of the committee lasted from 5 until after 7 o'clock, and was devoted to a thorcugh consideration of the case of Mr. Sites. The members of the committee say that they resent as uncalled for the in- sinuation in the petition of the teachers that they had acted hastily and without due consideration in demanding the vesig- nation of Mr. Sites, and assert that they ire it distinctly understood that their ction was taken only after the fullest con- sideration of all the facts and circum- stances connected with the management of the Eastern High School, At the close of the meeting it was announced that the committee had decided that the retirement of Mr. Sites, as originally decided upon by the committee, was for the best inter 3 of the school, and that {t had therefore been decided to stand by the action in de- manding his resignation. to take effect on the 30th instant. The vote by which this ion was determined upon was unant- mous, every member of the committee hold- ing that Mr. Sites’ usefulness was at an end so far as the Eastern High School was concerned, and that the success and effi- ciency of that school depended upon an immediate change in the office of principal of the school. Another P| © Offered Him. view, however, of Mr. Sites’ acknowl- edged ability as an instructor, Trustee Whelpley was authorized by the full com- mittee to offer him an appointment as an a tant teacher in the Business High ‘chool. Although it was not so stated at the meeting, it is practically settled, that unless Mr. Sites resigns his present ‘office and accepts the subordinate teachership, he will be summarily dismissed. Owing to the unexpected length of the | committee meeting, it was found impos- sible to report its action in time for a reg- ular meeting of the board of school irus- tees yesterday, and a special meeting of the board will be held on the 28d instant for the purpose of considering the report of the committee in the case of Mr. Sites. | In addition to the committee members, there were present yesterday, in antictpa~ tion of a meeting of the board, Trustees Shadd, Cornish and Mrs. Terrell. The action of the board with respect to Mr. Sites is practically a foregone conclu- inasmuch as the committee which has decided upon his retirement consti- tutes a majority of the board itself. The board consists of eleven members and the committee six, and each of these six is pledged to support the action of yester- 8 meeting, Including Mrs. Stoweil, who was unavoidably absent. — CECILIVS ACADEMY. ST. Commencement Exercises’ Held at Metzerott Hall. The exercises Incident to the twenty- eighth ernual commencement of St. Ce- cilia’s Academy took place yesterday af- ternoon at Metzerott Hall, which was not | only crovded both on the floor and in the galleries, but many persons unable to se- cure seats were ccntent to stand through- out the entire time occupied for the rendi- tion of*the program. The entire program was so well perform- ed that it is almost imporsible to select any plece for special commendation. The exer- ises were opened with a march from “Athalia,” by Mendelssohn, in which the following participated: The Misses Mc- Donald, C. Smith, E. Patterson, T. Casey, A. O'Correr, I. Townshend, H. Sargeant M. Morgan and Mandolin Club he St. Cecilia's Violin and ‘The Reapers,” a chorus by Clapisson, was rendcred by the vocal class, accompanied cn the piano by Miss S. McDonald; ¢n essay, “Laurel-Crowned Women,” was read by Miss E. Williams of the graduating class, and received many expressio’s of commerdaticn on the part of the audience; “Homage to Verdi,” by Duroc, was performed by the Misses S. McDonald, C. Smith, M. McFadden, L. Burke, J. Mulrati, A.’ Weiss, T. Casey’ and A. O'Connor. “Come and Join the Merry Dance,” a double quartet by Turney, was much ap- preclated by the audience. It was per- formed by elght ycung ladies, the Misses J. Darling, M. McFadden, M. Madigan, M. Torrens, E. Smith, R. Repett!, L. Williams and N. Howard, who played simultaneous- ly on pianos. The “Scarf Drill,” which was given by the junior class, also gave much satisfaction. Mies I. Townshend's essay entiled “Seek the Pearls Beneath the Tide,” was a scholarly prodaction, and as was the case of the previous essayist, Miss Williams, she was rewarded upon conclud- ing the reading with enthvsiastic applause. “The Daisies,” a chorus, was sung by thirty little girls, accompanied on the piano by Miss McFadden. A panto- mime exercise was rendered by a number ef the pup: after which a vocal solo, “The Flower Girl,” was sung by Miss Darling. “Tne Immaculate Conception,” a beauti- ful tableau, was given, a number of the pupils taking pert.

GARDEN PARTY. Daughters of the American Revolu- tion to Aid Continental Hall. One of the chief socia] events of this week will be the garden party to be given under the auspices of the Mary Washington Chap- ter, Daughters of the American Revolution, for the benefit of the Continental Hall fund. The garden party 1s to take place at Bel- mont, corner 14th and Clifton streets, to- morrow, from 4:30 until 11 o'clock, and Is directly under the auspices of the Con- tinental Hall committee of the chapter. The Continental Hall committee was ap- pointed by the Mary Washington Chapter the 6th of May last, and the work of the committee was outlined so as to provide for the raising of $1,000 by the 22d of Feb- ruary next. This committee consists of Mrs. Mark B. Hatch, Mrs. William Hoge, Mrs. William Doe, Mrs. Dr. Anita New- comb McGee, Mrs. G. H. Hill, Mrs. Harry Heath, Mrs. Daniel Relff and Mrs. Stephen J. Field. Of these Mrs. Hatch and Mrs. Doe have been untiring in their efforts for the success of the coming event, while the whole committee has worked faithfully toward the complete success of the whole work of the body. A great many donations have been received by the committee to ap- ply to the fund, and It ts thought that the proceeds of the garden party will nearly supply the needed addition to bring the fund up to the required sum, The arrangements for the fete have about been qpompleted, . nothing remains in dcubt except the w other. With this -doubt removed, it is expected that the affair will be an entire success, and reflect the great- est amount of credit upon the projectors of the fete. The spacious grounds will be decked out in gala attire, while the Marine Band will be on hand, through the courtesy of the Sec- retary of the Navy, to discourse music throughout tie evening. The band will be in attendance from 7:80 until 0:30, Refresh- Trents will be served by the committees in charge of the fete. The patronesses have been selected as a rule from among the offi- cers of the chapter, and comprise Miss Vir- ginia Miller, Mrs. Elizabeth Blair Lee, Mrs. Simon Newcomb, Mrs. Kmma R. Moses, Mrs. Mark B. Hatch, Mrs. J. D. Garrison, Mrs. Violet Blair Janin, Mrs. A. D. John- son, Mrs. William Hoge, Mrs. William Doe, Miss Elizabeth McLain, Mrs. S. C. M.

A peculiar accident happened to the pal- ace steamer Newport News while at her dock in Norfolk yesterday afternoon, which came near causing a serious dvtention. A large pine log, some six feet in length and twelve to fifteen inches thick, the cas away top of a pile, became firmly wedged into the space between the propeller blade and the stern post of the steamer, so that it was impossible to move the wheel in either direction. The wheel was In motion when the log was caught, and the jar was felt all over the boat, and such was the force of the shock that the blade of the propeller was buried {n the wood to the depth of three or four inches. Capt. Geog- hegan and his crew, who were on the spot, tried to disiodge the spar by the use of axes and ropes, but their efforts were un- successful, until the captain, throwing off his coat and shoes, plunged into the dirty dock water, and, with axes and wedges, succeeded, ‘after’ nearly an hour's hard work, In ‘splitting off several pieces from the log. While in the water Capt. Geoghe- gan was taken with a violent cramp in one of his legs, and had to be assisted out and briskly rubbed. Netwithstanding this, he pluckily went back again to his work, and when the engineer cautiously turned on the steam, the last section of the log floated | up, amid the cheers of the crowd whic Lned the wharf. The accident delayed the boat only about fifteen minutes, although she failed to secure ali her freight. a RSIONS, EXC About fifteen hundred people accompanied the Jolly Fat Men’s Club on an excursion to River View yesterday, notw tanding the threatening weather, and enjoyed the day in a thorough and hearty manner. The Jolly Fat Men and the Metropolitan rail- way teams played a game of base bail dur- ing the day, which was one of the features of the outing. The Fat Mea won by a score of 10 to 4. Another feature was the involuntary bath given elght of the fat men | by Capt. Randall. The eight chosen were the heaviest of the heavy, and vere genuy to try “shooting the chute.” ‘They were crowded into the front end of ! the boat, which, of course, as it struck the | water, plowed through it instead of over it and laid on the bottom. As the water is only three feet deep, the bath was not a serious one, and the objects of the genial captain's Joke waded out amid the hearty laughter of the assembled crowd, many of whom knew what was going to happen. The crowd enjoyed itself, although the rain interfered slightly with the sport, and re- turned home at a late hour well pleased with the hospitality of the largest club in the city In one sense, if not in another. On account of the heavy downpour which struck the city yesterday afternoon, the | annual excursion of the National Rifles to Marshall Hall, which was to have occurred at 6:30 o'clock, was postponed until the first open date of the Macales' Tickets | which were gold for last evening will be honored on that occasion, of course, due nctice of which will be given. The only direct route to Chamberlin's new hotel and the Hygeia at Old Point Comfort is by way of the Norfolk and Washington Steamboat Company’s stearu- ers, Newport News, Norfolk and Washing- | ton, one of which leaves 7th street wharf every evening in the year at 7 o’slock, arriving at Old Point at 6:30 following morning. The accommodations on these steamers are first clu: veing furnished throughout with electric lights, ard the table supplied with the best the markets of Norfolk and Washington afford. At Norfolk connections are made with the Old Dominion Steamship . Company's steamers for New York and all points north and south. The popularity of Indian Head trips of the steamer Macalester was very much in evidence on the first trips of the season, last Friday and Saturday even- ings. Despite the coolness of the weather there was a goodly number aboard on both trips of the boat. Now, that the mercury has apparently gone up to stay these de- lightful runs on the Potomac will doubt- less be more appreciated and more largely patronized. Those who are fond of danc- ing may tip the light fantastic to their hearts’ content at Marshall Hall until the return of the Macalester from Indian Head, at 9:30, There will be music by Schroeder’s popular band. The boat leaves her wharf, as usual, at 6:40 p.m. These trips will be continued Friday and Satur- day evenings in June and Thursday, Friday and Saturday evenings during July, Au- gust and September. ——__ Will Serve Six Years. Mr. C. H. Turner, counseb for Nelson and Lewis, the young men convicted recently of robbing Peter Outwater of Paterson, N. J., last March by administering “‘knock- out drops” to him, today withdrew the ap- peal noted to the Court of Appeals. Judge Cole thereupon directed that the sentence imposed by him on the men, six years’ im- prisonment in the Albany penitentiary at hard labor, be at once carried into effect. The men will therefore be transported to the penitentiary in a few days. ; Marine Band con THE LARGEST CLASS Commencement Exercises of the Oolumbian Law School. More Graduates Than Ever Before— The Prizes Awarded and Those Who Received Them. Never in the honoratile history of the law department of Columbfan University, and it now enters upon its thirty-second year, has it graduated so large a class as it did at the commencement exercises last night at National Theater. It will go down in the history of the institution, as one of the most beautiful and auspicious events that ever characterized a commencement in this city. The theater never looked more beautiful, and its capacity was thor- oughly tested by the friends of the 17% young graduates who entered the arena of legal conflict. The stage was occupied by the faculty of the University, the invited guests and the graduates. A stage manager could not have made a more striking picture. ‘The stage was set in a grove, and with the assistance of a number of towering planis and palms the delusion was complete, Along the footlights a profusion of flowers spread their fragrance, while overhead hung an immense shield of blue and gold immortelles (the college colors), enhanced by tiny in- candoscent electric Hghts, which brought out the monogram “Ct with great ef- fectiveness. The theater showed the same liberal effects of decoration, and there was @ profusion of flags and palms every- where. It was shortly after 8 o'clock when the graduates marched upon the stage to the inspiring strains of the Columbian University March, composition of Thatcher Clark. They were preceded by the faculty and distinguished guests. After the invocation by Rev. Samuel H. Greene, D. D., President Whitman of the university intreduced Mr. Holmes Con- rad, solicitor general, who delivered the address to the graduates. He dwelt upon the noblest of professions as he character- ized the law, and laid down the following rules for the guidance of the young lawyer: “Be methodical and systematic.” In this connection he cautioned the young lawyer to have a place for everything, and above all things not to have a miscellaneous pigeon hole. If a paper was not of suffi- cient importance to designate, it was het- ter to burn it up. More time was lost hunting for mislaid papers than it took to indite them, Be diligent.” He dwelt upon the im- portance in remaining in their off even if they had nothing to do there. Let the worla see that that's your place of busi- ness, and you are ready for business. Be self-possessed and svlf-dominant.” He did not mean by that to be too bold. That was offensive. But straightforward and thoroughly conversant with your case. Know all about it, and it would do no harm to know a little more. “Be courteous, patient and forbearing These were sterling requisites. Courteous to the judge, who patie ntly sat in jndg- ment upon the case being tried, polite to the opposing counscl, and forbearing with all connected with the case. Last of all, he cautioned the young law- yers, if they aspired to su céese, to put behind them the ever increasing evil of money making. No class of society nor all combined has the power to crush this evil as they had. It was the vindication of the right, and should prosper At the conclusion of bis remarks, the ibuted a selection, and dent Whitman intreduced Post- neral Wilsea, who awarded the ‘Lplomas and prizes. The M. M. Parker prize of 3100 for the beat examination for the degree of bachelor of laws was award- cd to Wilbur A. Owen of Michigan. The A. T.Britton prize of $50 for the best examina- tion for the degrce of master of law was awarded to Edgar H. May of the District of Columba. Three other prizes of $40, $0 and $20, res; W. H.
