THE PUBLIC SCHOOLS.
Superintendent Cook Opposes Truste
Francis Recommendation.

Superintendent Cook Opposes Trustee
Francis Recommendation.
School Trustee Francis recently recon-
mended that the office of Superintendent
OF Colored Schools be abolished, giving
as one of the reasons that this official is
the real cause of the recent trouble IN the
colored High School. At the meeting of
the School Board last night letter from
Mr. Cook, Superintendent of Colored
Schools, was read. Mr.. Cook said in his
letter that he regarded the office of Super
intendent of Colored Schools in Wash
ington and Georgetown as belonging to
the colored people, created for their
benefit and absolutely necessary to the
success of their schools; therefore, in my
opinion, while separate schools for white
and colored children are maintained, the
distinct Office of superintendent should
be preserved.
The letter, with DR.. Francis report,
was referred to the High School Com
mittee.
The Committee on Industrial Educa-
ton reported the opening of the night
schools throughout the city.
A number of unimportant changes
were authorized and the following pro-
motions made:
Miss II. NJ. Bruce, from class 10 to 10; NJ.

Might Rave Happened.
One day last week on weighing one of
the bags Of silver sent from New Orleans
to the Treasury Department to be de-
posted in the new vaults, the side on
which the bag was placed so far over

something was wrong. Examination
disclosed that bird shot filed the bag,
and that the silver had been distracted.
Investigation showed that another bag
had been opened, $500 taken out and

fully, but il is now generally known.
The money is shipped in wooden boxes
containing two canvas bags, with 81 900
in each bag. The boxes are carefully
sealed before they leave the mint for de.
livery to the express company, and are
carefully guarded from that time until
their delivery at the Treasury Depart
ment. They are, therefore. under sur
VIGILANCE from the time they leave the
mint until they are delivered 10 the agents
OF the United States Treasurer. The
shipments average 100000 day, and
the silver already placed in the vault
amounts to over $50 ,0O0. 900.
It is believed that only 81 800 was
taken. The responsibility for it rests en-.
tirely between the express company and
the officials at New Orleans who handled
those particular boxes. From the fact
the seals on the boxes were stamped with
silver dollars instead of the Govern.

The repairs to the Metropolitan Club

necessary by the recent fire, are about
completed. The fire was in the upper
portion of the building and destroyed
the roof and kitchen principally, al
