e e — THF OMAHA DAILY BEE: ATURDAY, JUNE 23, 189L THREE TEACHERS DROPPED Members of High 8chool Faculty Objected to by Board of Education. REASONS ASSIGNED Ona Falls Before Opposition of Charch People—Work of Others Not Good— Principals, Grade and Kindergarten Teachers and Janitors Elected. IN EACH CASE Three High school teachers were dropped by the Board of Education last evening when the teachers in the city schools for the com- ing year were elected. The election of principals, janitors and grade teachers was with unanimity. But when the report of the committee on High #chool was read, recommending the election of all of the present teachers, a snag was struck. The motion to do with this as with the other lists, to have the secretary cast the vote of the board for the teachers named in the report, was quickly squelched Bome of the members sald that they had heard some adverse reports about the work of some of the teachers in the High school and did not propose to vote for them. This brought about a motion to go into executive session to ballot In the secret session the following teach- ers were elected immediately: Homer P. Lewls, principal; Irwin Leviston, L. J. Blake, George M. Turner, Decie A. John- ston, Quackenbush, S. D. Beals, Busann Valker, Lewis, Kate N. Mc Mary F. DeVoll, John W Sanford, Bessie J Bnyder, Kelsey, May Copeland, Mary A. Rindis, Georgla | Valentine, Elizabeth Craven, C. Belle Dinturff, Lucy J. Roys, Helen L. Lloyd, Antoinette Ogden and Villa B. Shippey Misses Stacia Crowley, Ida M. Street and L. C. McGee were not elected. Warm dis- cursion was had by the board for an hour. REASONS GIV. Though the memebrs were not disposed to say what occurred in executive session, one of them gave the information that the reason for dropping Misses Crowley and Btreet was that their work as teachers was not up to the standard required, while the causo of Miss McG nonelection was the opposition of a number of church people, led by Rev. John Williams, who charged that she had spoken without respect concerning the commonly accepted doctrine of the inspiration of the bible befors her puplls. It was for this that Rev. John Williams called for her dismissal last winter, Miss McGee was also accused of “stubborn. ness” and of having produced discord among the other teachers. Laxity of discipline was also brought against all three. In the exccutive session, also, Miss Fannfe Arnold was re-elected director of music and Miss Ethel Evans director of drawing. Miss Alice Hitte was transferred from her position as assistant director of music and drawing to that of teacher of the eighth grade. Miss Kate M. Bradley was not re-clected director of physical culture. No action was taken regarding the reduc- tion of salaries, but the following resolution was Introduced in open board by Mr. Gibson and passed: Resolved, That all teachers, principals and janitors elected by the Board of Edu- cation shall be subject to such action as the board may take thereafter in regard to salaries. This resolution will pave the way to any reduction the board may see fit to make. The principals elected are: Bancroft, Agnes McDonald; Cass, Mary E. Simonds; Castellar, Mary B.

I wish to state most emphatically that there s not and has not been any demonstrations of this Kind either in or about this house, and any story to the contrary is absolutely and ma- liciously false.

This s all there Is to it. Mention was made also of an antagonism existing between certain of the heirs to this property and myself. I have no knowl- edge of such a condition of affairs, and as I rent the property directly from Mr. John Rush and have been treated with uniform courtesy by him I would be worse than an ingrate were I to cherish any but the kind- est feelings toward all concerned.

Views Expressed at a Meeting Last Night— Clty Ownership Urged. Owing to a mistake in the announcement, the meeting of the laboringmen called for last evening at Knights of Labor hall to discuss the canal proposition was but slimly attended. It was 9 o'clock before enough had gathered to warrant the calling of the meet~ ing to order. The chairman called upon Sam De Nedrey for a few remarks. Mr. Nedrey was against the building of the Platte canal unless it was owned by the municipality and the labor performed by local laboringmen. A private corporation, said the speaker, would bond the canal for more than it was worth and let its contracts to the lowest bidders. Cheap labor would be imported, supplies would be shipped from the east and when the ditch was completed Omaha business and laboring- men would not be any better off than they were before. Will S. Poppleton was called for and re- sponded promptly. He was in favor of the city owning the canal. A private company, said Mr. Poppleton, wants until 1898 to do the work in. Why is this? It wants time to float its bonds. It is especially hard during these times for private corporations to sell bonds and the projectors of this canal know this and hence ask for so much time. On the other hand the bonds of the county could be sold without any trouble. 1f a private concern could not float the bonds the canal would not be built until it could and the people would be no better off than now. The speaker was In favor, he said, of investigat- ing the matter thoroughly, and laying it before the people in such a way that when called upon to vote on the proposition the laboringman would know just what he was voting for. This, said Mr. Poppleton, is a strong city and its people do not need to rush in and grasp at a straw in order to save themsel David Patterson sald that Poppleton had declared last fall that he was opposed to municipal ownership of the canal and it was only last week that Mr. Poppleton declared that he was not in favor of the canal at all, These statements were denied by Mr, Pop- pleton, and then Mr. Patterson told why he was In favor of the canal, but he, like others, wanted Omaha business and laboring men to benefit by the building of the ditch, Several short addresses in a similar veln tollowed, i Switchback and carousal Courtland, e Fireworks and Flags At the lowest prices at MAX MEYER & CO.'S, Corner uth and Farnam street We have the largest and finest stock in the clty, e W.

The public schools of the city practically closed the year's work Thursday afternoon, although a session was held yesterday morn- ing, at which the desks were cleared, the books, pens, pencils and papers packed away, after which the teachers bade adieu to their pupils until the opening of the fall term. Thursday afternoon both teachers and pupils were in attendance, clothed in holiday attire, and at every school in the city the class day exercises were held, the little ones graduating from the rooms where they had studled during the year which has just closed. In all of the schools appropriate programs had been prepared and were carried out to the letter. At the Lake school the program was as follows: Nignt in dr ;Second Infantry Band sher Song— 'lnp Trip Instrumen tsman’ am Galog Completing the Indoor work, all of the pupils were marshalled in the corridors and upon the command being given, with a sol- dierly tread the 800 boys and girls marched down the stairs, through the balls and out of the south <ntranee of the building, keep- Ing step to the music of the Second In- fantry band. The sending of the band was a pleasant surprise to Miss Whitmore, the principal, and her associates, as they knew nothing of the coming of the boys in blue until they marched up to the building and serenaded the school. Last Arbor day Miss Whitmore made an attempt to secure the services of the band for the day, but on account of some previous engagement she was not successful, although she was assured by the headquarters officers that a concert would be given at the school at some later date. There the matter was dropped and nothing more thought of it until Thursday, when she was so pleasantly sur- prised by being afforded an opportunity of having the little ones under her charge listen to the music. After the school had marched and counter- marched in forming upon the grounds the many columns of children were halted In a hollow square around the graduating class, which stood in the shade of the class tree, of which the thirty boys and girls who pass from the Lake to the High school feel so proud. At that point the following exer- cises were had: Serenade to Class. Burlal of Class Hox Losing of Class K; Presentation of Fiowers. .Kindergarten Band Anderson ce Porter Class ‘Song. ot BURIAL OF CLASS BO The program, while complete, fails to tell the interesting features of the outdoor exer- cises, which were witnessed by hundreds of admiring parents yesterday afternoon. A burial of a class box is a sad Interment, and as the one at the Lake school was con- slgned to the moist earth at the foot of the waving maple, around which the school had gathered, there were many moist eyes notice- able. The burying of this little trifle re- minded the parents that their children had passed through the primary grades of the Omaha schools and that they were no longer the little ones which they were a few years ago. The burying of the box reminded the teachers who had watched the progress of the young hopefuls as they passed from grade to grade that they were leaving them for- ever, and that instead of seeing their bright young faces on the play grounds, in the Class, the recitation and the assembly rooms again, they were gone, leaving only remem- brances of the past. The box, which was a cedar chest, six by ten Inches, contained the names of the mem- bers of the class, the names of the teachers of the school, the names of the members of the Board of Education, the name of the superintendent of the city schools and the history of the class from the day when the members first appeared on the ground in Kilts and short dresses until the close of Thursday's exercises. When this box had been securely locked the Key was lost in a unique and most original manner, A pigeon had been caught and to one of its legs the key was fastened, after which it was re- leased, to wing its flight to some distant and unknown place. Then the little chest con- taining the valuables was covered with earth and hid from sight, there to remain until the ending of time. While this part of the program interested the spectators it was not received with the appreciation that the presentation of flowers to the graduating class made manifest. Thirty little tots from the Kindergarten, the lowest division of the school, marched through the lines, and, armed with beautiful bouquets of roses and cut flowers, presented them to the members of the graduating class, who received them with the grace of 80 many accomplished actors of the Stage. AT KELLOM SCHOOL. Twenty-two pupils bade farewell to Miss Lucas and the Kellom school yesterday after- noon. Most of the number will enter the High school, the entire elghth grade having passed the examination with ‘credit. Many friends were present to listen to the exer« cises. The following program was given: Amer School Salutat fary Enewold Music Carrie Rhyn Jullus l\llulpll G. Henning Jullus Cae: Claude Urlan l)r matis Persona aude Petersen School .Carrie Rhyn farius £ ot Tiay Sweet Philli Class Prophecy Valedictory Music...Clau Callsthenlics Claudia_Urlan, Leeder, Géorgia Rhyn Peattie Scho Sradiey The program was taken up chiefly with a symposium on “Julius Caesar, The papers were well read, as were also the speeches. The delivery of Antony's speech by Georgia Haislip was exceptionally praise- worthy. The class prophecy and valedictory were well written and wefe often times amusing and frequently set the class in a roar at soms hit. Miss Arnold, as usual, was compelled to respond to an encore, Miss Bradley led her class through the calisthenic drill ana wound up the program with a very graceful pantomime to the music of “Buanee River.” She alvo had to respond to an encore. The address of Mrs. Peattie was an urgent plea to the members of the class to continue thelr education, Many people, she said, would de- preclate further education and say that it would not bring success. In the present sense of the word, the amassing of wealth, it would not, but Address in the true semse:of bringing happiness it would. If onekhas brains enough he should get as much education’as possible. The programwwas arranged and directed by Miss Lucasiithe teacher of the graduat- ing class At Lincoln shapl on Wednesday from 10 to 12, a most edjoyable reception was given by the teachermiand pupils, The entire bullding was decorated pro- fusely with drawings, cuttings, pastings, flowers, fernssand palms. Added to this were the sweet faces of the children. Crowds of Interested patrons and other citizens thronged the bullding, and many were the expressions of pleasure and sur- prise at the remarkable manner in which the programs .in the varlous rooms were rendered. The puplls 6f this school petitioned the Board of Educatfon in January to change the name of their new bullding from Center to Lincoln. This the board did, thereby in- stilling into the minds of the children a lesson in patrfotism which will never be for- gotten, O~ a— AFFAIRS AT SOUTH OMAHA. High School Graduating Exercises—Three [ = ] Young Women Get Diplomas. High school commencement exercises were held at the Methodist church last evening. The graduates were Maude E. Thomas, Gypsie B. Alexander and Grace M. Row. land, The platform was decorated with ferns and flowers, which hid the railing from view. The salulatory was delivered by Miss Row land. The hardest knowledge, she said, was yet to be acquired—that coming from per sonal experienc “Our Nation's Progress in Education,” was the theme of an oration by Miss Alexander, Sketching American educational history, she summed up by saymg: “Trus education consists in drawing out and em. ploying every faculty of the human being. Mental without physical education unbalances the whole and is a fallure. No young man's or woman faculties can be educationally drawn upon to any advantage unless they are guided by the pre pts of morality and Christianity. Every crime 1s a criticism on the education of the criminal. A thorough education is a man's fortune. Coeducation tends to an elevation of the soclal relations between the two The Hign school choir, consisting of four- teen girls and four boys, sang ‘Foresters, Sound the Cheerful Horn,” beautifully, and were followed by Miss Maude Thomas in a delightfully unique and entertaining so- liloquy, in which, representing herself as electricity, she gave a comprehensive record of the carcer of that potent factor in modern civilization. At the most Interesting points in the soliloquy scores of little incandescent bulbs, hidden in the folds of the green veil that covered her form, shone out with a brilllancy that made her appear like some fairy queen. Four pretty little maidens sang My Sweetheart,” when Miss Grace M. Rowland gave an accomplished and well informed essay on the origin, growth and existing principles of political economy, in which she predicted that future discoveries in this great science would, in a great measure, eradicate many of the existing ills in so- ciety. “The Angelus” was the solo in which Miss Jean Boyd Mullen displayed her musical Bifts to the delight of all.. Miss Gypsie Alexander then delivered a pleasing valedictory. Diplomas were presented by Cheek of the Board of Education. St. Agmnes’ osing Exercises.

WHAT SHE WENT THROUGH. There 1s & Nice and Profitable L Other La on for Her Experience, 1 know a lady, and a very charming per- son, who has had a very trying experience, Like so many ladles who have peculiar pains which they often do not understand, occasional headaches, lows of appetite, blues, bearing down sensations and such troubles, she thought she was only suffer- ing from a cold, which perhaps would pass away very soon, and g0 it did, but It re- turned In a short time even worse than be- fore. In this way she lived along for nearly a year, when she suddenly discovered that she was soffering from that greatest of modern scaurges, Bright's disease of the kidney Now, the great trouble with her, as with s0 many other men and women, was that she did not know what ailed her. Here is what she says, in her own words “Despite the attendance of skilled physi- clans, my lllness increased, and they stated that another attack of my malady would most assuredly prove fatal. It was at this time, at the solicitation of friends, that I decided to try a remedy of which I had heard much and knew but little. 1 confess I had little faith because I thought that I was doomed, but almost immediately I felt an improvement, which continued until I was finally restored to perfect health, and 1 feel that I owe my life entirely to the use of Warner's Safe Cure, which alone took me from the depths of misery and restored me to heaith, Now, whenever 1 feel as though any of the symptoms I then had are returning, 1 take some of the Safe Cure, and immediately feel better; and I must say that I now feel as well as in my girlhood, and it is entirely due to this remedy."” These are the words of Mrs. J. F. Beale, who resides at Lexington avenue, New York. Hers is not an fsolated experience. It is precisely what hundreds of other ladies have found true in their liv It shows that if women continue to suffer and let the trials of life weigh them down when they should be joyful, they have only themselves to blame. = There is a means of relief; of restoration. It Is pure; it Is safe; it s a woman’s best friend. By its use she can be enabled to withstand the ills of life and secure both health and happiness. Art in Furniture, Among our late studies in old French furniture Is this Chiffonnier with its double swell front and its antique prow like sup- ports to the mirror, It makes a very beautiful plece of furni- ture exccuted in bird's eye maple or curly birch, and with trimmings of polished brass In Eighteenth Century designs. These 1804 patterns mean nothing until you stop to recall the fact that they were all designed In the early days of the busi- ness depression when low price was the first and last consideration. They are simp- ly “Studies In Economy,” and such values may not reappedr in the furniture business in the next half dozen years, 1 you have a single furniture need, sup- ply it now.
