NONRESIDENT Students at Millersvjlle Fol

NOn- Resident Students at Millersvjlle For
hidden to Board IN tho village
Mr.. Martin K. Mylin. president of the
Leacock township school board, complains
of the application of a new rule of the
Millersville normal school authorities to
the case of his son John, a young man Of
10, who had been prosecuting his studies
at the Normal with a view to engage in
teaching. According to Mr.. Mylin's ac-
count, John went to the school last spring,
boarding with a relative, COnfectioner
Warfel of the village, and at the suggestion
of the authorities he engaged to teach
for year after completing his studies
so as to get the benefit of the state
appropriation of so cents week to those
who contemplate teaching He bought
one of Professor Brooks's books ON the
theory of teaching and after 16 weeks in
struction, was examined, got certificate
aud during an interim taught one of the
Leacock schools satisfactorily for n month
and then went back to Millcrsville to COM
pletc his studies. This session, however,
he is met with the refusal OF the authori-
ties-under resolution Of the trustees
passed year ago-to allow him
boards in the school. Mr.. Mylin and
his father desire that he board
with his relative, and think tho young
man ought to be allowed to do so. The
faculty think not. And this is the SUBJ
ject of Mr.. Mylin's complaint. And he
further complains that when he sought a
conference with DR.. Brooks on the subject
he was not treated with due consideration.
Young MIR. Mylin is anxious to continue
his studies, but he wants to board with
his relative.

present restriction upon the mayor in his
police appointments, and making him
directly responsible for all of his ap-
pointments, as he now is for half of
them. There has never been any ques-
tion, we believe, about the propriety of
the mayors veto of the ordinance reduc-
ing the entire force to ten men.
In regulating the relations of the rail-
roads with the city the mayor has largely
aided and chiefly conducted the negotia-
tions which have resulted in securing for
the city the fine bridge on Lime street
and that which is in course of construc-
ton on Shipper. Heis already moving
for similar structure to replace the un-
slightly and dangerous abomination on
James street, where a better crossing is
most necessary. 1t remains for him to
crown his administration by securing
protection for our people from the death
dealing rate of speed with which trains
rush across our streets, by having watch
men put at the crossings. Cancellation
and concession have utterly failed to
bring the railroad managers to
a sense of what justice and common
humanity demand. The claws delay :"
and the yearly changes in the solicitors
Office seem to have served the purposes
of the railroad company since the trans
fer of the proceedings against it from the
police to the law department of the
municipal government. 1t is spectacle
none of us can contemplate without
humiliation that a corporation created
and existing as the servant of the people
and enjoying the right of crossing
a-half dozen much travelled streets of
our city at grade should abuse that right
and put the lives and property of our
citizens in daily peril.
