EXPENDITURES

IOCal .Slo 400 IL
Mr.. Tousley was granted two months
leave of absence to visit Europe.
The committee on rules and studies re-
ported. They recommended the discon.
tinuance of special teachers for penmanship
and drawing, these subjects to be taught by
the principals and other teachers.
The course of study in the high school to
be so changed that the fourth year be discon-
tinued-three years forming full course;
the schools to open the second Monday of
September instead of the first, on account of
fair week; that the school year be reduced to
nine months instead of ten-thirty-six weeks
school and sixteen weeks vacations; reduc-
ton in salaries on the following scale: On
salariesef $500 Or under, 81 per cent; $525
and under, IL per cent; 1925 and under,
81 per cent; on janitor's wages, 10 per cent.
The report stated that this would make re-
duction of from SO 900 to $1O,0OOper annum.
Mr.. Tousley, when called upon by
the board to express his opinion, made a
lengthy and sensible speech. It was sup
posed, he said, that public sentiment was the
cause of this movement; but he was doubt
full as to the public mind in the matter, six
out of every seven he had spoken to were
against the short term, and he found in look
ing over statistics that the nation generally
was against it. Out of 1929 cities, 674 had
40 weeks school, 172 had IL weeks and over,
and only ss3 under 40 weeks. city the
size of Minneapolis, with 16 weeks without
school, was grave question to consider. On
the salary question he spoke very earnestly,
showing how nearly impossible it was for a
teacher with $3.50 a year to live and
bear a respectable appearance. People
thought teachers were plenty but he found
good teachers scarce; he had examined some
thirty last week and he could not recommend
more than three for employment. Board

was high in Minneapolis than in St.
Paul or Faribault. Two teachers in q "litt le
smalP' room and getting their meals at
cheap restaurant we're unable to board at
less than SIS each and then there was their
clothes, etc.
Mr.. Oftedhal spoke in favor of reduction;
he had good teacher in his academy who
taught for $50 per month and he did not
grumble.
Mr.. Young did not care what they did in
other places. 1t was question whether
Minneapolis could pay or not, if
she could she should, and if not
the reduction should be made. He
believed in reducing the salary of those
who had large oues, and not the primary
teachers-it costs them as much to live and
clothe themselves. He didn't like buncome
talk. If the treasury won't allow of higher
wages that is an end to it. Did not think a
woman was qualified to teach because she
dressed extravagantly.
| Mr.. Hahn thought retrenchment could be
made in another way-reducing the number
of teachers for instance. He thought that
three teachers we're employed at the high
school building when two could do the work.
1t was ultimately agreed to adopt the re-
port with the exception of that referring to
the studies, which was referred back to the
committee.
DR.. Simpson offered the following:
Resolved, That no bills be allowed except at
to regular monthly meetings; and that nc
bills will be allowed unless they shall have
been filed on or before the last Tuesday pre-.
ceeding the last Friday of each month.
After some business of minor importance
the board adjourned.

4 L7snatic Canine.

A lunatic cur of the canine breed created
big scare in Aldrich's shoe store yester-
day. The little beast-a spitz-came rush.
ing into the store, foaming at the month,
with glaring eyeballs and white teeth gleam-
ing, and sprang at the throat of a lady. A
clerk dexterously caught the little animal
upon his boot toe and kicked him across the
floor, thus saving the lady from his fangs.
The animal then sprang at the plate glass
window, but that was sufficiently strong to
resist his fury. Springing up, however, he
caught a lamp glass between his jaws and
ground it to atoms. Wildly rushing around
the store, he at last found his way to the
rear and fell down into the area, where he
was speedily dispatched with pistol ball.

Recovery Of Stolen Je,velry.

The GLOBE of yesterday gave an account
of a burglary, which occurred on Wednes-
day night, whereby Wilks Bros. we're re-
lieved of about $500 worth of stock. Yes
terday morning, two men employed in load
ing lumber in yard situated on the corner
of Second street and Fifth avenue north,
found number of handkerchiefs. collars
and jewelry hid under the lum-
Der. The police were notified,
the goods found, brought to the police sta
ton where they were identified as part of
the goods stolen from the store of Wilks
Bros, on Wednesday night. A young man
who gave the name of James Delown, who
was prowling around the place where the
goods were found and could give no good
account of himself, was arrested on suspicion
of being concerned in the burglary. On his
arrival at the station he was recognized by
Mr.. w. Wilks as one of stwo young men who
visited the store on Wednesday and made
two smalr purchases. The police are of the
opinion that there were at least four men
concerned in the job, and they are looking
for the rest of the gang.

The practice of sending male county pa

All applicants for admission to the seventh

of Pinafore last evening. No doubt the hall
WILL be crowded o-night.
The Misses Banning's entertainment last
evening was we'll attended, but the lateness
of the hour precluded an extended notice OF
the excellent performance.
The mayor, who is such stickler for city
ordinances, should see that the board OF
health does its duty in placarding every
house where scarlet fever exists.
The new brick warehouse of Wheaton,

There should be some means of prevent.
