RICHMOND, Va, May l2.-The Court OF
Appeals to-day ousted the Democratic
School Board Of this city and put in power
the appointees Of the Coalition, on the plea
that the former had not properly taken the
oath ofoftice. This action has sounded
the keynote OF the next campaign in this
State. The debt question Is settled, and
the Democrats cannot hope for any popu.
larity from its settlement. On the Coali.
tioA Board oi Trustees, put in by action Of
the court to-day, are two negroes, tue first
membels Of that race who ever held a SIM
liar position in this Commonwealth. Their
appointment by Governor Cameron ontbe
State Board oil Education meets with the
unfeigned disgust Of the Democrats.
In the campaign in this State this fall,
these appointments will be made an i'm.
portant issue, ifsthey do not crop out in
the Presidential contest the year following.
The decision OF the court to-day places Ma
homes board in control OF the whole pub.
lie school system Of Richmond, as well as
one or two other cities OF the State. This
patronage is powerful political leverage,
and Malone will nsei It for all 1t is worth.
When the Coalitionists came into power
in this State, in 1879, the negroes demand.
ed thar their schools should be taught by
their own race. This demand will, no
doubt, be renewed now, and, as the
Mahoneites have hepower, will be acceded
10 here. The Democrats cannot possibly
regain the control Of the public schools
here, which they lost by their own care

under fifteen months.

JERsEr CRY, May l9.-Around the Ma
tional Storage Co.'s grounds, at Commune
paw, yesterday men and boys armed with
iron.pointed sticks were searching through
the ruins. Some OF them hardly knew
what they cough. Forty boiler makers
were set to work early in the morning cut
ting up the sheet Of boiler iron which was
torn from tank No. ! and lodged at the
edge OF the bay shore. It was under this
that the bodies were thought to be lying,
and that this impression was correct was
soon proven. In several places after the
long sheet Of iron had been cut into strips
and raised, were discovered small heaps OF
ashes and bits Of charred bones. The
worst fears were realized, and all that was
left for the searchers 10 do was to gather
together such Of the pieces that did not
ctnmble to dust in being touched, and
place them gently, in 3 small keg. It is
probable that the entire SIX were crushed
under the hot iron. The burning oil when
poured over them left nothing hut small
handful OF bones to tell the sad story oi
their fate. All that Is left Of the Ave men
and the boy now lie in the nail keg.

STREET PAYING.
THE BRICK AND GRANITE BLOCKS.
Their Advantages Asd DIsadIaatasss as Viewed
By the Board OF PubIle WOrk,-GrAaits
PArins 70 b Laid on Ssuth ChsplIns
Street on CoadItIOas-l Good Aors.

In recent issue Of the ISTELLlGEECEH
1t was intimated that the Board OF Pubic
Works was contemplating the paving oi
two or three squares Of Chapline street on
the South Side with the granite block.
After giving the matter careful consider
alton the Board has decided to pave Chap.
line from Twentieth to Twenty.fourth
street with granite, provided the citizens
along that street will subscribe $500. The
improvement would be vast one and
OF incalculable benefit Provided the
money is raised, the Water Board will be
required to lower the pipes and the Board
OF Public Works will put the street to its
proper grade, and put in new curbing. At
present the curbing is in bad condition
and the grade very irregular. A granite
pavement once down lasts for years and
needs but little repairing. 1t would also
be great saving TO Main and Market
streets; for the. hauling from the lower end
instead Of turning of at Twenty-fourth
street; would continue on up Chapline.
While considering this move the Board
paid considerable attention to the brick
pavement project, and decided that in the
long run, the granite was by odds the
cheapest Mr.. Waterhouse, member Of
the Board, was seen. He Is practical
brick maker.
He thought the brick pavement might do
on streets where there is light hauling, pro.
yided the bricks were made out OF strong
clay and well burned, but for heavy haul.
ing, in his opinion, they would never do.
He also said that they would need much
more repairing than the granite, and in the
end cost nearly II not as much as the
latter.
