The present terminus is Amadee, in en County, and the route crosses the great Madeline Plains. Van Loan, about fifty-five miles north of Amadee, is | road. The Board of Education last evening large at the outset, as about forty men are at work. The roadbed for thé most part will be constructed with ease, as the entire distance is over a gradient offering no more obstacles than a level prairie. The gap between Amadee and Van Loan should be closed within four months at least. Susanville, the county seat of Las- sen County, will not be touched nor af- fected by the extension. This move of the Nevada and California Railroad was_ hastened by the apprehen- sion that the McCloud River Rallroad was headed for the territory from which Re- no's narrow-gauge line draws its entire support. No inducements are held out by the people north of Van Loan for the narrow gauge to extend its tracks into Oregon, as they have falth that an over- land road is a possibility of the near fu- ture and they do not care to see any ob- structions interposed. £ TR COLD SNAP IN FLORIDA.

Rademaker, bookkeeping, will still be paid $90; Mrs. Spencer to teach the Pitman system of shorthand, $80. These changes would save $135 per month but for the fact of Mrs. Spencéer’s employment as an extra teacher, which makes a net gain of only $55 in the school. The positions in the Polytechnic desig- nated as ‘‘head” or ‘“‘assistant” teacher In the bookkeeping department are abol- ished, the principal in future occupying this exalted position. * The sewing class of Miss Cashman, in the Franklin grammar school, continued, and the. singing classes have been cut out of the high schools. For vacations the city schools will be closed the last week of March and the second week of October. They will also close this year June 16 and open July 31. Lincoln Day will be observed the ]3!¥l of this month. The secretary of the board was instruct- ed to notify the Legislature now in ses- sion that it is the desire of the Board of Education of San Francisco that some provision be made for the relief of Pro- fessor J. C. Pelton, the founder of the public school system of this State. A communication was recelved from Treasurer Truman stating that he understood that the board clearly under the impression that the School Department was entitled - to one-half of $1,217.140. He also stated that it was a question whether he could pay any money to the teachers who took part of that §123,500 overpaid money with- out deducting from their demands cn the Treasurer the amount Judge Seawell says was illegally ‘paid them.

Finally he was dismissed from his posi tion—"'sent to Hunters Point,” a phrase known in the department for summarily discharging a teacher. G. H. Foulks was appointed to the principalship of the Business School. g The board had threatened to run Kil- patrick not only out of his school but out of town, but did not succeed in the latter job. He won his case in the Superior Court and the board appealed to the su- preme tribunal. One of the first matters considered by the present board on en trance into office was this case, still pend. ing, with a view of withdrawing the ap- peal. The new Judiciary Committee held several - sessions for investigation. ~The most active and vehement objector to the proposed withdrawal is G. H. Foulks, " the successor of Kilpatrick. So earnest has been his opposition to any action that might reinstate Kilpatrick that the mat- ter has apparently become a contest be- tween the two teachers. Last Monday afternoon at the last meet- ing of the Judiciary Committee Foulks and his attorney appeared and fought tooth and toenall against the question of withdrawing the appeal.
