Just to make a quorum of the board of education Monday evening Commis- sioner Walter E. Monagan, as the handiest to reach, was telephoned for, says the Waterbury Democrat. He came, but he did not stay long, going away rather than be a party to some- thing he did ‘not wish to see pussed and in order to prevent its passage. me time ago Comnmissioner Ralles u.m to the attention of the boar fact that teachers in the high -chwl were® giving private dessons to their puplls for pay. It developed later that this em of what one commis- sloner called “spoils” was in operation all glong the line down to the les. rintendent Tinker was asked what he thought of it and he said it way news to him, it had its good features as well as its bad ones, but he would look it up and with the assistance of the committee on teachers would re- port later. Last evening he sent in the report and it was that which was the cause of the row that sent Com- missioner Monagan away. The report is as follows; To the Board of Education of City of Waterbury: Gentlemen: The committee to which was referred the matter of the pro- priety of teachers privately tutoring pupfls would recommend for adoption the following regulation: Chapter 3, Section 11: “Teachers shall not tutor for pay pupils who fecite to them.” The board took ne action in the mat- ter. the Could Land the Job. “I don’t think,” answers Dick Cro- ker, when asked his opinion of the result in New York.

NIDGEFIELD EXCITED Over Occurrence in New Pari¢h House Saturday. at deal of excitement There 1s a. gr: in Ridgefield over a kickup in church matters that took place in that town on Saturday afternoon. The ~excite- ment has to do with the new Episco- pal parish house, just being completed and an ingident that occurred in it, in which seyeral of the foremost work- érs ,of the church were concerned. The parigh house was designed as a meeting place for the riendly society and the Men’s ¢l as well as the Ladies' guild. To celebrate the completion of the new house the Men's 1 had planned for a big supper on Wedn night of this eli. There is a most excellent bowl- ing alley in the cellar and some of the members of the Men's club were down there on Saturday afternoon try- ing out thelalley, One of the balls thrown down jump- ed over the end of the alley and land- ed behind a large box. One of the men rushed down and reached over the box to get the ball. His hand grasped something warm and furry. He peeked over. itis Meph- itica, i of preservation. He tiptoed from the spot and told the others of tho «€ind behind the box. The men all held a consultation and | oue volunteered to get a gun and shoot the intruder. So, while the volunteer | obtained the gunm, the rest watched to | see that the game did not escape them. The man with the gun returned and getting in a spot where he could ob- serve the beast, he took careful aim and fired. The report of the gun was followed by the smell of gunpowder and other things. the other things belng far the strongest. The men thought fiot upon the order of their going but they went at once and were glad to get outside and breathe the pure air. Members of the church who lived within a mile of the parish house knew what had hap- pended and they did not see the game killed either. Fedestrians hcld their handkerchiefs to their fgees and hurriedly left the vicinity of the new building as they went down town to do their Saturday night ghopping. It finally dawned on the mempers of the club that unless something’ was done and done quickly there would be no supper held in the new parish house on Wednesday night. So a member was appealed to and he secured a large stock of perfumes, de- odorizers, antiseptics and anything else that would act as a counteracter of the all-prevailing smell. - Most of the night Saturday was spent. in fumi- gating the bowling alley and other rooms in the parish house.—Danbury News. LEATHER PRICES LOWER. Dealer Declares That the Hide Market is Depreciating. Local “The prices of hides are at leéast one cent a ‘pound less this week than they were last weel said a Jocal deal- er .in hides Monday afternoon, in speaking of the recent unusual fluctua- tions ich have been taking place in the leather market. “Although the present prices on hides are much higher than the prices at, the corresponding time last year, they have depreciated considerably during the past week. This deprecia- tion is due, no doubt. to the fact that farmers and cattle dealers wishing to profit by the high prices offered in the hide mi t, killed off all their old cattle, and sold the hides. This nat- urally tended to reduce the prices on the product. “A letter I received several days #go [rom the dealers to whom I sell my hides says. ‘We wish to advise vou that the hide market, is dgclining, and we would advise y6u to buy as cheaply as possible, as ‘we cannot tell ho* low it will go."" hen asked If he thought that the depreciation would continue for any length of time, the d;nler said that it was Impossible to tell definitely at the present time.
