SCHOOL MATTERS.
The Board Of Education Holds Its
Final Meeting for the Year.

The Board OF education Holds Its
Final Meeting for the Year.
The board of education met at the
Bank of Commerce building last even
ing. A petition was presented by the
people of Kenwood asking that lot be
reserved for school purposes at present
when it can be procured cheaply. In
regard to the South Minneapolis High
school, all bids were rejected on account
of eXorbitant prices. The HerZog
Manufacturing company was granted
the contract of putting up, fire escapes
on the new part of the high scnOOl and
on the Holland. DOwell and Horace
Mann schools for Sl.SO0. Luth Jaeger
donated SIS towards purchasing flags for
the school buildings, which was ordered
returned, with Instructions to purchase
a fl ig and present it to some school. III.
E. Blaisdell also presented flag, which
was of the wrong dimensions, and was
returned. The cost of proposed build
ingS and sites for 1890 were: South Side
High school, twenty-five rooms,
$4,000 for building and $4,000 for
site; East side school. 1000 for building
new Jackson. l6 rooms, $4,000 for
building; Prescott school, rooms, S15,-
co., site $4,000; Tuttle, rooms, SIS, 900;
Northeast MinneapOliS,S15, 900 for build
ing, the whole amounting to S204,o 900.
The report of the committee on manual
training deferred their report until later
lin the season. A bid for $4,000 needed
by board for next month was given by
the Union National bank at per cent
discount, 4 per cent exchange. and was
accepted.
The following new teachers were ap-
pointed: B. T. Thompson, Margaret
Blair, Miss Nina George, Lucie Gled-
din, Gertrude Hamlin. Esther Hitchcock.

SOCIAL NOTATIONS.

The Itasca Chautauqua circle did not
meet at its regular place last evening,
but at the residence of G. L. Motfett,
12l4 Linden avenue.
A very pleasant entertainment was
given by the Levi Butler Post w. r.
Q. last evening, at their hall, corner of
Washington avenue and Twentieth ave-
hue north.
An interesting programme will be
rendered this evening at the Church of
Christ, corner of Eleventh street and
Portland avenue. A special feature of
the evening will be the giving OF gifts
such as Well-wOrn clothing, ETC., to the
Dakota sufferers and Associated Char
tiles.
All the curriers' are requested to meet
at the Palace ice rink, Christmas morn
ming, at 9:30, and participate ill the

ternOon thereafter at 2:30, and every
Monday. Wednesday and Friday even
ings at 7:30.
The Scandia club will give select

School Training.

An important addition to the schools
will soon be made in the contemplated
preparations for more manual training.
The success which has attended the re-
cent trial of the department in the CEN
trail high school has established a repu-
tation for Minneapolis schools all over
the country. At meeting of the COM
mittee last Friday the matter was
discussed and estimates prepared,
which go to show that an expenditure
of $500 to each building will be neces-
sary. The training at present is con-
fined to carpenter work. 1t is under
stood that Supt. Bradley was not in ia
yor of an extension of the system into
the lower grade, but that better results
would be obtained if concentrated in
the high schools, and the kinds of in
dustry increased. MeSsrs. Gjertsen,
Pratt and Moore are in favor of accord
ing to the other schools the same privi-
leges that are provided at the Central
High school. The employment of two
new teachers will be necessary on the
extension of the system.

their while to send pictures to the expo
sition art gallery of 1890, the following

lowing agreement:

The Y. NJ. C. A. Detectives.

Secretary Elliott, of the Y. NJ. G. A.,
states that the results of the count of
the young men who entered salons a
week ago Saturday night have been er-
roneously given by the newspapers.
He says: "We have the records of act
ual count from 175 saloons. These fig
ures show that 6, 199 young men entered
saloons during one hour. These figures
are ten-elevenths of the total men, wom-
en- and children that passed through
the portals of these sa looms. Taking
the other forty-eight saloons, from
which we have no returns, owing to our
observers falling us, the total figures
aggregate 7,107. We estimate a young
man at from sixteen years of age to
forty. These figures are indeed ap-
palling."

IN MALE ATTIRE.
Famous Women who Have Doffed
Petticoats Because They Pre-
ferred Trousers.

Petticoats Because They Pre-
ferred Trousers.
Philadelphia Times.
The subject of woman donning male
attire in order to follow their lovers in
cognito to wars or other dangerous
perils has been favorite one with the
poets from the early ballad singers to
Mrs. Browning, in the "ROmaunt of the
Page" and the Swedish Tegner, in his
beautiful story of 'AXel." But In
modern times women have less romantic
reasons for the change of costume.
Like George Sand, they NAV do it in
spirit of adventure; like Rosa Bonheur
and our own DIR. Mary Walker, because
they find il more comfortable, or like the
hundreds of cases which are constantly
being noted by the newspapers. because
they find that an apparent change or
sex enables them to make better
living. Rosa Bonheur wears trousers
when at work, but resumes her female
attire in the evening. She wears not
only trousers. but full male outfit, in
cluding the French labOrer'S blue SmOck
and cap, when Sne goes to lhe fairs to
make studies for her cattle or wanderS
about the fields unaccompanied. The
garb relieves her of the trouble of ound-
ling up skirts when she carries paint
ing implements, and also cOnceals her
sex from the rough men whom she is
liable to meet. Louisa Lawton, the
sculptresS, also finds it convenient to
wear trousers and coat when at work.
Sarah Bernhardt, in her studio, assumes
a black velvet suit of clothes, in which
she is conscious that she looks very
charming. Nine. Dieulafoy, the French
explorer and scientist, who has done so
much to increase our knowledge of Per
sian archaeology, also looks more CO.
quettish and winsome in the costume
she adopted while journeying in strange
lands than in the skirts which she wears
in Paris. Indeed, even in Paris. her
only return to feminine costume is in
the substitution of skirts for trousers.
The coat and vest, the shirt. collars and
cuffs are retained.

AS JUDGE LoCHREN HOLDS.
Divorces Cannot be Secured on
the Ground of klcptOmania.

the Ground of klcptOmania.
Judge Loehren filed decision yester-
day denying the petition of John Mer-
ritt Lewis for divorce from his wife.
Ell a G. Lewis. Mr.. Lewis is promi-
mont Minneapolis physician, and sued
for divorce on the ground that his
wife is insane, her disorder taking the
form of kleptomania. Judge Lochren
holds that when a person, although in
sane on one certain point, is still men-
tally sound enough to recognize and un-
derstand the meaning of Il marriage con-
tract, marriage entered into by
such person is perfectly legal and
valid. While insanity at the time of
marriage inyalidateS the contract, such
form of insanity as skleptomania, which
may be classed as simply character
lstic or defect, in no way impairing the
understanding or other mental faculties,
does not render the contract void. Judge
Lochren also holds that persons, beng
mentally and physically capable of en-
tering the married state, are not obliged
to disclose defects or characteristics of
either the person or the mind. This de-
cision is an important one, inasmuch as
1t leaves no way of escape open to the
person who has unwittingly been joined
to one of thievish propensities, and who
IS caused much anguish and mental
suffering thereby.

Money in Kattlesnake Oil.

AtutuS kOd-J DduucI.
There are places in South Georgia
where men extract oil from the rattle
snake and use it to cure rheumatism.
These persons will give a negro 81 to
point out a rattlesnake to them, and
then they kill it in peculiar manner.
They place a fOrked stick over the
snakes head, then put cord around it
and strangie the snake. This is done to
K 'ep the snake from biting itself. The
uUdy of the reptile is then strung up
and the oil extracted from it. 1t sells at
S2 per ounce, and this industry is very
profitable one. The snakes in that sec
ton are very large, averaging five feet
in length, and one rattler gives up
great deal of oil. A little negro once
saw two Tattlers lying close together
and wanted to get the money for find
ing them. 1t was mile to the nearest
house. He was afraid the snakes would
crawl off while he was gone, and so he
took off his coat and placed it between
the snakes. He went off, came back
and found them still eyeing the coat.
He had them charmed. So the snake is
cultivated down there as profitable

The Fuel Dealers Lament.

The mild winter weather is slightly
discouraging to fuel dealers. 1t is said
that the record will show this year at
least 100000 tons less consumption of
coal in the city than in 1887. when the
weather was severe during the winter
months. The light receipts during the
early part of the year, as compared
with last year, were due to the fact that
a large stock was carried over from the
previous year, on account of the mild
weather then, and dealers had to buy
less coal.
