JOHN MAHER STILL CLNGNG TO LIFE The Bird Hal Flown—The Methodist Church Contract Let—The Third pistrict Census Report— Other News Notes. Theschool board met again at 10 o'clock yesterday morning to conclude the un finished business of thesession the night before. 1t was oident at the first glance that some thing had transpired. The mobile faces of & majority of the members indiated thata so- lution of the dificully belween them and the princdpal had been aiscovered, and that it was it least satlsfactory to them. Thir so. lution wasannounced later on andit issome- thingof anature that will create a sensa. tion, not only in the city but in elucational creles throughout the entirstate. It was simply theeffon to cover up the quarrel b the summary dismissal of both the superin tendent and the principal of the ligh school WAfter alittle time hal ben comnsumed in the allowance of some of the small monthly bills the motion calling for the resignation of Prof. Stevens was recirred to. When the boarl adjpurned at 11 o’clck on Friday night President Stewart and members Blaxsim, Waite and Hunter had placed themselves on record in favor of the resolu- tiou dismissing the contumacious professor, but it was Mr, Hunter’s motion to adjoum that w camied by the votes of Wells, choentgen, Blaxsim and lis own. This looked upon at the time as evidece of secet. understanling between these w some gentlemen which required alittle more time for completion, Whether they had a con for- enco or not subsequently is notknown, but they came into the meding yesterday moni- ing with aclear understanding of what was to transpire. When the effrt was made to pass these resolutions Mr. Hunter offered the following as asubstitute: Resol vel, By th mands the rost it herchy de- f.)ars o the ;A » To- cis asprincdpalof lof sald city. Iusupjorting his motion Mr. Hunter suid thatas the subject wasone of grat import- ance, and for fear of misconstruction and wis- representation of what he hal to sey concen- ing it, hehad put lis renarks in writing ad desired to have his sentenees mide apartof theoficiil record. ““This toard” he said “isnow confronted with tms unfortuna state of alairs—a flerce, irnpresibleand ir- recancilable cnflict is ow being carmied on betyeen Prof, McNaughton as superintend- entand Prof. Stevens s priicipil of the high schiol.

Inowdecline as a member of the board o gointo any investigation of these charges. The evil has already been doe. It canmmot be undme. The predica- ment inwhich these gentlemen find them- selves Isoneof their own making. Incom- paibility of temper md cmtrariety of opin- ionseeus tobe their lot. Atter carveful and thoughtful consideration of the subject, and alter using every eideavor to settle this diffiulty, I am firmly con- vinced there is 1o soluton of the prsent problem, no way to protect the schools and save then from injury, but to oblain the wsiguations of boththese gentle- men, For these reasms Ipresent this reso- lution, and for the same reason [ askits adoption.” Me: . Schoentgen and Blaxsim seconded the motion to adopt the resolution. Mr. Wellsdeclined to gointouny inwvestiga- tion of the charges that hadbeen bruited about. the stieets, but he fay, tion as the best means of solving a dificulty that was demoralizing theschool and threat- ened almostthe disruptionof the board snd the breaking of lifetine friendships, Dr. MeNaughton said heobjected to being made the victim of anattack and then being broughtin asa @ilty party. He could not seo why thegentiemen of the board who had undersiood the situation all along could introduce such aresolition, Itwas particu- larly unjustand vnfaiy, bul if the board had determined to puss the wsolution, he had nothing to say. President Stewart discussed the resolution by saying that he hadno axes 0 grind, had wmide 10 pronises, hal no friends to reward or enenies to punis but. the rsolution looked like & copromise lotwen the mem- bers of the board, whicn was likely to do an injastice ton man who had proved himseif sapableand worthy, and agreat wrag tothe schools, Itwas ovideatly an efiort to restore gwd feling betveen thie menbers of the board ly doing agreat wing t theinterests of the schools by robbing themof their lead althe st moment, when the gresest de- moraliztion must follow.
