They abused Superintendent Webster | to their hearts’ content, partly for getting y and partly for not being there to be ‘‘roasted.” It was officially a meetinz of the Com- Elementary Education, called to settle the question of a course of study | that bad be nreferred to it. The rest of | the members of the board nad been in- vited to be present, aad all Lut {wo were there, making it an informal meeting ot Madison Babcock, Principal | Albert Lyser, Principal Jjoseph O’Connor | and Vice-Principal Ebenezer Knowlton | had drifted in, and occasion arose for Dr. Ragan to explain that he bad invited them. All are anti-Websterites. When Chairman Derbam called the boara to order, Carew moved in a steely manner that Superintendent Webster be notitied to atiend the meeting, and Sec- retary Welc , who had notifiea him twice, went mrumr- and then reported Web- ster’ absence. Derham moved that the report of the joint committee of primary | and grammar scho.l principals amending the new course ot study be adopted with- out change. To theend of the meeting Verham contended that if this report was novall right it was the fault of the said experts, and the ooard should shut its eves and adopt it. Carew moved an amendment that it be adopted, except for any new books pro vided, which should bs cut out. He be- lieved that there was a geography and an | arithmetic added for some grades. ““We have had enouph odium cast on | | the board by this course of study, and I don’t propose to Lave any more even by principals adding books for which the board is responsible,” said Dr. Ragan. Armer asserted that the report of the principals would not gibe with the course | of study. There were such little things as ieaving a year of spelline, geography, etc., oat of some grades when the 1wo were put together. There should be a general | revision. Ragan took a shot at Webster by say- | ing, ~[ want to know bow many members | had anytiing to do with this course of stu The very title page shows that it is by the Superintendent, ana now since | the press is aroused he charges it to the | board and he shirks this discussion.”’ Mr. Babcock got a chance to turn loose n the new course of sindy in reference to the evening sciools. “‘It’s a curiosity and a copy shoun'd be ‘l in the park museum,” he ssia. “Why, in | the highest de of the evening schoo! !i | working boys and girls are required to eleven books!

Some of the evening-school teachers are young, inexperienced or otherwise incom- ent, and many are unfitted to main- tain discipline among the rather hard | vnur},xclers who make up a considerable portion of the evening-school attendance.

The Charter Committee of One Hun- dred Laboring Hard. interest of The unabated, L evening’s Native Sons’ Hall was well attended, and the debates over the adoption report of the legislalive committee were heated and earnest, Mayor Phelan on calling the meeting to order called the attention of the conven- | tion to the fact that one of its duties was to suggest a ticket of freeholders to the people. A motion was made by Gavin McNab that a committee of ten be ap- | pointed by the chair to suggest the course | to be pursued regarding the sug estion of freeholders to the convention. The motion was carried, but the chairman dia | not appoint. A motion to reconsider the committee’s action on sireet railway franchises was then taken up, butit was lost. Franklin K. Lans offered as an addition | to seciion n amendment 1o the effect thatin ail street railway charters granted in the future a condition should be at- tached under which, if the entire road | were not operated for thirty days continu- ously, the Board of Superyisors should have the right to declare forfeited the franchise: and take up the tracks. The matter was referred to the legisiative com- mittee. The convention then resoived itself into | a commuttee of the whole and took up the | legislative committee’s report and adopted a section granting Supervisors power to allow railroad lines to enter the city at the most convenient point. Various other sections were adopted, proviiing for the convevance of land, ex- ecation of trusts, transfer of lots from one department to another, for the lease of land owned by the city, the sale of the city’s personal proper(y, the purchase of | property levied upon in favor of the city and the right to incur an indebtedness ex- ceeding tne revenue of any fiscal year in case of any great pubiic calamity; also empowering the board to meet in the | month of July to fix and establish the saluries of city and cuunly employes and also to constitnte themselves a Board of | | Equal:zation.

Broker Thomas accuses Jerome of dis- crimination against Broker Thomas and [ in favor of other brokers, and cites a re- [ cent instance in point. His story 1s that some time ago a jeweler named Benguiat imported some jewelry and precious stones to this city, and that pending an | appeal (0 the Board of General Appraisers | he allowed the jewelry to remain in the | custody of the Government until the Ap- | praisers had settied the disputed point as | to the amount of duty to be paid on the 00ds. |~ When he got ready to take out the jaw- | elry he paid the duty and employed | Broker Tuomas to aitend to the matter. But Mr. Jerome refused to release the ‘;.uo:l&, alleging that there was a clain: | against them. Benguiat denied that theie ]\vas any ¢laim on benalf of the Govern- ment. Ail that he knew of was a deb: of $2 69, balance of a brokerage fee due Cus- toms Broker Boden. It was not until Bocen went with Benguiat and Thomas [ to Jerome and informed him that the $2 69 had been paid that Jerome released the goods. No one knows by what authority Jerome |is acting.
