Orders that would put the responsibility of the war on the Administration instead of on himself. Then, in January, 1846, he marched his 4,000 men through the “debatable ground” between the Nueces and the Rio Grande, and halted on the Rio Grande's bank op | posite the Mexican fortified town of Matamoros. Matamoros, across the river, was buzzing like a great beehive with angry Mexicans, A band of Mexican cavalry crossed to Taylor's side of the river and fell fowl of a United States skirmish party, killing or wounding etx teen of our soldiers.

Waiting only for a pitifully small reinforcement, which rateed tip army's number to 6,626, Taylor proceeded to plough his way straight toward the very heart of Mexico. With lesa than 7,000 troops he was attacking @ whole nation His first important move was against the mighty stronghelg of Monterey, garrisoned by more than 10,000 Mexicans.

In his defense of the schoolhouses, I. D. Wilsley, Chairman of the Board of Education Committee on Care of Buildings, gives us a {to understand that four or five years ago an elaborate plan was __- + worked out to reduce fire hazards in schools. This plan ealled for an Le ;.@xpenditure of $3,000,000. Only one-third of that sum has since 5 been e: led on fire prevention. ‘ a! ° When, more than a year ago, the Board of Education asked for ee a second million to continue the work, the Board of Estimate refused ‘ « to grant it. Therefore the Board of Education for at least a year “has had no funds with which to go on making the schools safer. ,.. If the Board admits that $2,000,000 more is needed to minimize “the risk of fire in echoolhouses, thén, of course, it also admits that the echoolhouses are at present by no means up to the standard of safety that the Board itself set. Are we to believe that safeguarding children against fire perils cis less important now than it was five yeare ago, when the fire pre- «vention programme was mapped out? i It looks as if the Board of Estimate should take its turn at ex- ip »plaining why the schoolhouses are not still worth all the protection a ,that money and skill can give them. rs _———-* eatin ‘The state papers of Gov.
