The number enrolled in the German
classes of the schools last month was 1,514.
a new school has been opened in a rented
building on University avenue to accommO-
date the overflow of the Jackson school.
Even with this help the accommodations of
this school are
TAXED TO THEIR UTMOST,
and the necessity of erecting an addition is
apparent. A four-room addition to the
Jackson school was recommended. as it
will be difficult to accommodate the pupils
of that district unless this improvement is
made. The Webster school should be en-
larged, masmuch' as a large number of
pupils have been refused admission and are
waiting for vacant seats. The classes in
the upper grades are too large for effective
teaching and the teachers are overworked.
The original plan of the Webster school
provided for twelve-room building exactly
like the Van Buren,. The completion of
the Webster by the erection of a wing con-
tanning four rooms should be included in
the improvements of next year, the report
says. The erection of school house on the
lots recently purchased by the board in
Brown & Jackson's addition, in the Sixth
ward, the enlargement of the Rice school
so as to make it full grade school. and the
erection of siX-room addition to the JEFF

but the need of the additions to the

imperative. In several of the schools dur

BOARD OF TRADE DAY.
Delegates to be Sent to New Orleans
TO REPRESENT St. Paul.

The meeting of the board of directors of
the chamber of commerce yesterday morn
ing was not very long one, nor did any
thing of much importance come before it.
A communication from the board of man
agement of the North Central and South
American exposition at New Orleans, stat
ing that Monday, Jan. IS, 1886. had been
designated as American boards of trade day,
was read. 1t sets forth that this is one of
series of special days, or American cele-
brations, intended to promote more init
mate commercial, social and political rela-
tons between the sister nations Of the three
Americas. The time has now arrived when
the United States is entering upon what
may be called the international era of its
existence. This is in response to ian over
whelming popular demand for new foreign
markets for surplus products and manufac-
lures and broader field of action" The
commissioners therefore send an invitation
for the city of St. Paul to be present by a
delegation. The president said he would
appoint committee.
A communication from II. V. & 81. W.
Poor in regard to Poor's Manual of the
Railroads of the United States was referred
to the committee, with instructions to buy
copy.
MI. D. R. Noyes, from the committee to
whom was referred the matter of ship
railroad across the Isthmus of Tehauntepic,
reported that in the opinion of the commit
tee shipment across the isthmus would be
of immense, almost incalculable, advantage
to the commerce of the world, and recon-
mended that our government at the earliest
practicable moment and in the most prac-
tical way take steps, with or without the
aid of other national powers, to secure the
same, and add ''that all regard favorably
the project of Capt. Eads for a ship rail-
road, it having received the Endorsement Of
so many practical engineers, and commend
it to the favorable consideration of con-
gress." The report was adopted.
Mr.. Noyes reported in favor of national
bankrupt law and said that he had so often
reported in favor of one that it was hardly
worth while to report again. The commit
tee really had no further report to make,
but to avoid all questions it would again re-
port in favor of a bankrupt law, and the
report was adopted.
The communication from the National
board of trade, notifying the chamber that
the sixteenth annual meeting of the Ma
tional board of trade would be held in the
city of Washington, commencing onW ednes-
day, Jan. 20, 1885, at noon, was referred
to the mercantile committee.

ter carnival returned yesterday morning

brief rest they were introduced to round

appearance of nearly 200 members of the
Snowshoe club, clad in their uniforms of
white flannel, trimmed with purple. who
escorted them to the club house in st.
Boniface, where the hospitality of the club
was extended in an elegant BANQUET.
Many pledges were made of the entire CO.
operation of the club and other leading
citizens of Winnipeg, who assured the COM
mittee that delegation of at least 500
would attend from that city. The COM
mittee are under obligations to the Mani
toba railroad for special favorS extended,

Ministers, Meeting.

The attendance was smaller than usual
at the ministers meeting yesterday owing
to the cold and the WEAKNESS induced by
Sundays numerous services. The interest
was. however, exceptional, the discus
sion of the subject The Churches and the
Working Glasses being the best yet had.
Rabbi WechsIer introduced the matter by
an admirable paper and the remarks by
those present, while indicating a great
variety Of opinion as to the causes for the
estrangement between the churches and
laboring classes, revealed uniform feeling
that never before were the churches more
eager to reach and interest the classes in
question. 1t was voted to continue the
subject at the next meeting, Dec. 81, and
DR.. Thomas and Rev. MI. Herriot were APP
pointed to open.
