 Petition.
 The board of education held regular meeting last evening.
 Designations reported by the committee
 on schools and laid over according to a rule
 were:
 SyIveria Flynn, No. Hamilton school;
 Maria E. Shan1ey, No. Dwight school.
 The appointments voted upon were: Nellie
 R. Brown, No. to Hamilton, $520; Ita
 Clark, to No. 4 A Hamilton, $550; as as- sistant in training work in Welch school,
 Alice E. Reynolds, $500. The purchase of ten copies of Anatomical charts at $50 each and one copy of Geo graphical chart at $60 was recommended. The committee also recommended that one or more members of the board visit the sev- eral schools with the superintendent and see how things were progressing with their own eyes. The committee further thought 1t would be of great service for some member of the board to visit other cities and observe the system and grades of instruction in other schools pr. Carmalt thought it wouldn't be quite right to spend the peoples money in
 
 ! knowledge of local systems before going out side.
 Superintendent Dutton gave brief review of his course in visiting schools and stated that he was willing to accompany any of the members in a tour of inspection. A motion was made by MT. Zunder that Messrs. Graves and Strong be appointed g committee for visiting other schools and ob serving the course of instruction and other details. It was so voted. MT. Zunder moved that Senator Plunkett be appointed committee to appear before \ the legislature to endeavor to carry through the boards petition of grant of bonds which has been previously published. It wsl so voted by the board. The original motion provided that the bonds should be non-taxa ble. Dr. Carmalt moved that the committee on school buildings be directed to report at the next meeting as to the condition and progress of improvement on windows and lighting in ] the Wooster, Skinner, Dwight and Fair street schools.
 After a short discussion of the general fe licities of education the board went into ex- ecutive session to discuss financial matters and shortly afterwards adjourned.

The Troup Faction Holds . Meeting
 An Effort to Patch UP Matters with
 she Other Faction Fails.
 The Troup branch of the Democratic party held meeting at 796 Chapel street last night as did the Reynolds faction the night before.
 Joel A. Sperry, president at last nights meeting, and Ex-Town Clerk Shuster was secretary Several speeches were made, and the opinion seemed to be that in order to win at the coming election there must be harmony in the party.
 With this view @ committee of three was appointed to wait on a like committee repre- senting Mr. Reynolds to see if some compro- mise could not be made. This committee went on it's mission, but they might just as well not have taken the trouble. They were met with & prompt re- They said they had no authority to take such action. MT. Reynolds friends consider that they have been badly treated and they intend to win or fall in the attempt. The committee returned and stated to those assembled the result of the confer ence.
 An executive committee of fifteen, one from each ward, was then appointed and the | meeting adjourned. This committee will take action as to the best plan for this branch of the Democracy to pursue. The outcome will be that a candi- date will be put up in opposition to MT. Rey- holds.

Arctic and Antarctic lcebergs,

1t is not generally known that a
marked difference exists in the form of
the icebergs of the two hemispheres.
Those of the Arctic ocean are irregular
in shape, with lofty pinnacles, cloud
capped towers and glittering domes.
whereas the Southern icebergs are fiat
topped and solid looking. The former
reach the shore by narrow fords, but
the formation OF the latter is more reg
ular The northern are neither SO large
nor so numerous as those met with in
the southern ocean. In 1875 an inn
mense berg was sighted in AZ degrees
south latitude, which drifted about for
several months and was sighted by
many ships, 1t was 500 feet high, sixty
miles long and forty miles wide, and
was in shape like a horseshoe. Its two
sides inclosed u sheltered bay meas
nring forty miles across. A
large emigrant ship ran into
this bay and was lost with all
on board. Only about one-ninth of an
iceberg is visible above water. There
are several well authenticated accounts
of icebergs 900 feet high having been
sighted in the southern ocean. This
would make their total height 5000
feet, or nearly two miles. Science.
