sion on Monday
pension of SIS was granted to Ann Maria
Fields, of the first district. and S15 each to
Michael Weaver and wife, of the fifth district.
The School Commissioners made application,
In person, to the County Commissioners for an
appropriation of lG cents on the 500 for the
public schools. They said that while numer-
GUS applications were before them for new
school houses, in view of the losses the county
sustained by the flood of last August they did not
propose to build any new houses. The old ones,
however, need repairing aud painting, and they
did not see how they could keep the schools
open and make necessary repairs upon build
ings for a smaller appropriation than 10 cents
on the 500. The County Commissioners accord
ingly granted this amount, which is about
$4,000 less than the school appropriation last
year.
The following appropriations were made for
public roads:
18th, $4,000; 9TH, 5000. Total, $4,000. The
appropriation last year for the roads was
s23, 600
The board will meet again next Wednesday
and fix the tax rate. There was some discus
sion In the board in relation 10 the issue of
bonds for the payment of the flood losses, but
no definite action can be taken until the county
expenses for the past year are all figured up
