As as the letter was read President Powell called Mr. Thomas to the chair and offered the following resolu- tion: Resolved, Th of Buperinten: and re bim this board. In taking this action tve wish publicly to express our dcep sense of his personal worth, his rare gifts of mind and heart, and his exceptional standing and ability as an educator. We wish to bear wit to his untiring ‘and well directed industry and his unflinching loyalty the good of the Bchools.

A number of the members spoke in ve high terms of Prof. Fitzpatr.ck, after whic the resignation was officially accepted. Th action threw down the bars and Mr. Akin moved that the board proceed to elect a superintendent to fili the vacancy Mr. Gibson moved ss an amendment the ‘matter be postponed for one week, arguing that the members should take time to look up the fitness of the several candi- dates for the position Dr. Duryea urged that the take two weeks instead cf one election of a superintendent, he argued, was too important a matter to be acted upon in a hasty marner. The motion to proceed with the election was carried . President Powell appointed Messrs. Thomas and Babcock as tellers and told the members to_prepare their ballots. Dr. Duryea insisted that pared to cast his ballot, as newspaper reports that Qldates. The salary of the supeintendent was then cut from §4,000 to $3,600 for the ensuing year. Upon the ballot being taken, the result wa a8 follows: A, P. Marble, 10; Smith, Gllbert, 1; blank, 1. Prof. Marble was de clared elected, after which he was presented @ Introduced by Prof. Fitzpatrick, who sald that Prof. Marble was one of the best and most thorough educators in the country. He said that he was the equal, if not the superior, of any man who had ever held the position in Omaha. Prof. Marble thanked the board for the honor conferred, saying that he realized that the schools of Omaha had attained a very high standard, and that it would be his aim and purpose not to let them move backward FITZPATRICK'S FAREWELL. Prof. Fitzpatrick said thst one of the sad dest moments of his life would be when he left Omaha. He had always found the members of the school board ready to assist him in his work for the advancement uf the schoc He had asked members of the board*to do certain things, but everything asked for the go:d of the schools of Omaha. He had been charged as derelict In nt glving reasonable notice of his inten tlon to leave the school, but if such was the case, and it was a mistake, it was a mistak of the head and not of the heart. In May he sald that he was tendered a position in a city four times the size of Omah: and an increase of salary, but he would not accept, saying that If he continued in sch ol work he would stay in Omaha. Mr. Fitzpatrick spoke strongly against erippling the High school and cutting down the kindergarten. He urged paying good malaries, as good salaries were the only thing that could secure able and competent teachers. If the city did not educale its directive power it would only b: a shor( time until that board would have to import that power. Members of the board were less influenced by politics than in any eity that he had seen. Dr. Duryea said that Prof. Fitzpatrick came to Omaha when there were many dif- flcultles to conquer. There was no one, the doctor sald, who could have entered into the work more earnestly, graccfully and hon- orably that Mr. Fitzpatrick. During his stay in Omaha Prof. Fitzpatrick applied the metbods and principles of public schools to such an extent that his departure from the work was a great loss to all. The doctor pledged a friendship which should extend for all time to come. President Powell said that Dr. Duryea had only voiced the sentiment of the board. The board and each member had been prond of Prof. Fitzpatrick, who would take with him good will and a hope for future prosperity. Prof. Goudy, late superintendent of pulic tnstruction of the state, said that it was a case of ‘“The king is dead, long live the king.” He spoke of the cducational Institu- tions of the state and what they were ac- complishing for the youth. THE NEW SUPERINTENDENT. Omaha's new superintendent of schocls is B3 years of age. He griduated at Colby university, Waterville, Me,, in 1881, making his own way through collige. Almost im- mediately he came west and became the prin- cipal of Wayland academy at Beaver Dam, Wis., where John M. Thurston was one of his pupils. He then became principal of the Boynton High school at Eastpert, Me., and =oon afterward was made the head of the Edward’s Place boarding school at Stock bridge, Mass. This was & school pstronized by many wealthy people and among Mr. Mar- ble's pupils here were nephews of Cyrus Fleld, Hamilton Fish and of Presidents Van Buren and Polk. He then was the prin- cipal of Wercester academy, Mass., for two yers, and has remalned a trustee of the institution ever In 1868 he was elected superintendent cf the schools of Wor- cester, In which position he has remained until ‘the present time. He has be anstant contributor to educational journ and has taken a leading part in the meetin of various educationsl associations, Four years ago a work of hs treating of the sanitary conditions of schcol buildings was ublished by the National Bureau of Educa- lon. Mr. Marble says that his experience while teaching in Wisconsin gave him & knowl- edge of the cordial character of western people, and this, together with letters re. ceived from friends in Omala when it was known that Superintendent Fitzpatrick would resign, led him to seek the position to which he has been chosen. He also knew that Omaha was a wide-awake, pros- perous and progressive city and this In creased his desire to resume his acquain tance with the west here. He has been in the city since last Friday. Mr. Marble's family consists of a wife and two grown daughters, who will eventually join him here, though just when he does not know. Iu religion, Mr. Marble is a Baptist He i8 a tall, large, well bullt man, with gray hair end moustache, strong and pl ant features, and strikingly resembles W Howells, the novelist He has made an exceedingly favorable im- pression on the members of the Board of Education who lave talked with him, and they are confident they have secured a worthy successor to the retiring superin- tendent.

The attendance on this occa- sion was limited to invitations, but the size of the crowd did by no means limit the fun, which continued to a late hour. The bears and their families, active turners and more intimate friends, were present, and one and all scemed to enjoy themselves hugely. Aside from the soclal feature and quaffing the foaming beverage, the time was p 1 pleasantly, the Interest centering on appara- tus turning, dumb-bell lifting, jumping and AN amusing tug-of-war betwien bears and actives, The bears' gold medal, which re- mains the property of the class until won three times consecutively, when it becomes the property of the lucky individual, was won by Robert Unger, the Hanscom park gardener, who made the highest average in all the exercises. Second and third prizes were awarded to Herman Beselin and Henry RohIff respectively. It is a castom with the bear division to also award prizes o the two lowest in average These are denominated consolatory prizes and they are intended to supply balm for the wounded feelings of unluc embers, who, either through temporary disability or by reason of obesity, have been prevented from ing better records. The award of these winnings is always accompanied by more or less hilarity at the expense of the winners. Both cf these prizes consist of beer mug: the one an ordinary glass, with a capacity of half a gallon, while the other is more elabor- ate, but somewhat diminished in size. The picture of an ourang-outang adorns the latter. Unless the temporary holder improves on his record mext year the fee simple to this plece of furniture will be vested in him Sunday the award of the last mentioned cup was made to Herman Schaeffer, whose herculean though futile efforts to bestow it on somebody clse entitled him to it.

The tug of war between actives and bears furnished never ending sp rt, which reached the highest pitch of excitement when, under the strains of music, fast and furious, the former gained nine inches on the latter at the end of ten minutes. This was made all the more ludicrous because of the bears po sessing an advantage of 700 pounds in weight with a 260 pounder fn the harness. Actives Philip Miller, Paul Wurl, Em!l Rohlff, Al Johnson and Fred Kuenne accomplished this result under the most vociferous applanse They were captained by H.
