The Township High School.

AS there is much inquiry of late in regard to
teachers, location, amount of salary, etc, of our
Township High School, with your permission l
will give you a short history of its management
since it has been under control Of the present
board of trustees.
Soon after the spring election the board organ
jed by eleetng Mr. Calvin president, and S. w.
Raymond clerk, DR.. j. C. Hathaway chairman
committee on teachers, and j. Ii. Pickens chair
man Of committee on building.
As the present term had commenced before we
organized, we continued the same teachers at the
same salaries as agreed on by the former board,
getting permission to use the same building at a
nominal rent for the present term only as they
informed us that the room We occupied was re-
quired for the primary department. As regards
teachers, can assure your readers the doctor has
done his duty, having been in correspondence
with teachers from Maine to California. And as
Il result we have before us applications from well
recommended teachers at salaries ranging from
$40 per day down to salaries more in keepin z
with the times, and think we shall be able to
hire principal at salary ranging from 81 900
to 81, 800, first assistant from $500 to 500 As
regards location, one would suppose in a city the
size of Ottawa there would be no trouble to find
building suitable for our school. But such has
not been our experience. After having the mat
ter under consideration about two months, ! find
our chances narrowed down to three places,
which are each strongly opposed in their turn.
| The places to which ! allude are the Park
House, the second story Of the Cameron building
and the residence of J. f. Scott, on the South
Bluff The former can be had at about 500 per
year. the Cameron building at about $780, and
the Scott property for school purposes can be
bought for $1,000 or will lease it for five years at
5000 per year In conversation with some of the
leading men and heaviest tax payers of our town
ship, heard dissatisfaction expressed at taking
any of these old buildings, but they recommend
erecting plain, substantial building capable Of
accommodating from 200 to $50 pupils, which
learn on good authority can be built and furnish
ed for about $4,000. And they assure me that
the several locations interested will furnish lot
free of expense. The west side element will
give and press the claim of Shabbona Square, !
am informed, with East and South Ottawa yet to
hear from, with injunctons already threatened
at each point.
| / mention these facts not to try to force the
township to the erection OF a building, but to
show YOU what we have done and contemplate
doing, us we shall be forced to accept one of the
above named temporary places or build if the
school is to continue, which the vote in the
spring surely contemplated. j. H. PIcKENs,
Junior member of Board of Trustees.

Forepaugh's big show has been here and gone
on its winding way, and there is perhaps no par
ticular reason why we should refer TO it again
but really we feel like saying an extra good word
in its behalf. The menagene was much the hes
display of animals we have had here in many
years, if ever, while the circus was exceptionally
good. The conventional circus has fallen into q
rut from which no manager in the last forty
years seemed able TO eXtricatc it. IetForepaugh
has done it. There is positively newness and
freshness about his circus that is easier to realize
thar define. There are the usual astonishing
gymnastic fests, the riding, leaping, trapeze per-
Torrance, clown jokes, &c, all old enough, you
well say, yet nobody had ever seen those things
done in Just that way. The genius Of Forepaugf
seems to lie in making old things look IS some
thing entirely new.

st. Louis, early Thursday morning, had a
narrow escape from repetition of the South
ern Hotel horror. The Lecede house was dis
covered to be on fire about / O'Clock in the
morning, and there being some 800 guests in
the house, of course the panic for a few min
utes was terrific. However, 1t was soon an
nounced that the fire was under control, and
the panic was measurably allayed The fire
originated in restaurant in the rear tn,
hotel and was happily eytinguished before i
reached the main building.

TRAMPs.-A Quincy dispatch mentions the
exodus of an army of tramps from that city
en- route for Chicago, intending to make the
Garden City "hot' on the 4th. AT the same
time Decatur dispatch mentions the passage
through that city, on a freight train from East
st. Louis, of 240 tramps also bound to reach
Chicago by the 4th. The tram men along the
line had to let them ride as they were unable
to put them of, though not tramp offered to
pay his fare. Chicago has got couple of

their reception as hot" as the tramps can

Among the acts of the late congress is pri
vate law granting to Capt. VIM. Cogswell, OF
Ottawa, life pension, though we are unadvis
ed as to tine amount. The bill as introduced
asked for $50 month, to begin with 1865, but
was probably made to conform with dozer
others that passed at the same time.
Capt Cogswell commanded battery dur
ing three years of the war, and had his consti
tuition so impaired in the service as to be near
ly helpless ever since being paralyzed In
speech and crippled in mind and limb. Ye
on account of some technical difficulties, arls
ing from the too long delay in the application
or some such cause, the pension board were
unable to pass favorably on his case and the
difficulty had to be overcome by special act
OF congress, in securing the passage Of which
our representative Mr.. Hayes, showed himse
creditably efficient.

Mercedes, the young queen Of Spain, whose
marriage to King Alfonso took place in the
spring, died after short illness on Wednes
day. The announcement is received with gen
eral expressions Of sorrow throughout Eu
rope. The feeling in Spain almost approaches
CONSERVATION. Hopes were raised at the crisis
of the disease that the vigorous constitution OF
the queen might triumph over the complies
ton of maadics, but her condition was made
doubly perilous by the fact that she was ex

the year.
The queen died about noon in the arms OF
