mEsS KENNEDY,s CASE.

Tho Committee on Schools Has a
 Heartng-IanY Testify 10 Her Abili.
 ties as 8 TeacheF-Probabilit That
 Superintendent Dutton's Action Will
 Not Ese Approved.
 The committee on schools of the board of education had hearing yesterday afternoon in the case of Miss Kennedy, teacher in room 5 of the Dxwell avenue school, whose resig- nation has been asked for by Superintendent Dutton. Many interesting points were brought out, the principal one being that Superintendent Dutton dld not have spec- ial regard for the truth. Many citizens of the Ninth ward appeared and their testimony was very strongly in favor of Miss Kennedy as teacher of ability and merit. They were all united in saying that she is capital teacher, and they were not averse to criticis- ing Superintendent Dutton for what they called 'sone man" power of the school system of the city.
 A. J. Kennedy told the board that he had asked MT. Dutton, previous to his asking the teacher for her resignation, what the trouble was. MT. Button answered that there was nothing the matter, only he thought she needed little rest. MT. Kennedy answered that the teacher herself ought to know wheth- CT she needed rest.
 Yesterday Superintendent Dutton denied to the committee that he had ever made such remarks. A pretty lively time ensued, in which MT. Dutton was warmly assailed.
 Miss Kennedy was alse heard. She told the committee that the superintendent had been trying to get her out of the schools for a long time.
 Superintendent Dutton, in defense of his action, said she was not up to the require ments of the times, and that as teacher she is weak.
 The committee were very favorably inns pressed with Miss Kennedy's story, and by the words of praise that the parents of her scholars gave her. The committee did not consider the case after the testimony was all in. but it is understood that they do not ap- prove of this move of Superintendent Dut- toms, and that the teacher will probably be retained.

A REMARKABLE ESCAPE.
Driver Rerklna ThFOw From His Seat While Going to the Fire Last Night.

Driver Ferklna Thrown From His Sc eat
 While Going to the Fire Last Night.
 A very narrow escape from serious conse- quences occurred to William B. Perkins, who was driving the aerial truck to the fire last evening, the regular driver, William M. Page, being at supper when the alarm came in box 43. The drivers seat is made in such a manner as to be thrown forward out of the way when the ladder is to be put into use. The seat became in some manner unloosened and shortly after leaving the house the driv- CT WAS precipitated directly on the horses backs, but managed to recover his balance in time to mount one of the ani malls and save himself from going under the wheels of the machine, which would undoubtedly have caused instant death. The driver managed to regain his seat without checking the speed of the animals. It was an escape such as MT. Perkins does not care to repeat.

THE WALKING MATCH

At QulnnIpIae Rink, Fair Haven-Bfg
 Records For the First Mile made by
 Hart, Hegelman, COnnor ana Others.
 The following thirteen pedestrians started last evening in the ffty-hour go as-you-please contest at Quinnipiac rink: Frank H. Hart of Philadelphia, Pa, Dan Dillon of New York, George Connor of England, Will A. Smith of Colorado, J. W. Sullivan of Bangor, Me-, Ansonia, Sport Campsna of Bridgeport, John Sherlock of West Haven, Peter Golden of New York, who broke the 48-hour American record, John McQueeney of New Haven John Day of England and - McCabe of Ansonia. When T. J. Callahan gave the word the men started at lively run, which pace nearly all of them continued for the first hour. The first mile of sixteen laps was made by Connor in minutes seconds At the end of the first hour several of the walkers had made re- markable records, as follows: Hegelman and Connor had made miles; Hart, Golden, Sul- livan and Smith were credited with 8 miles; Sherlock, who was going at steady gait, which he will probably continue for long time, had made miles. Several others ha6 made good records and nearly all were cred ited with several laps in addition to the number of miles recorded.
 "Happy" Jack Smith, who is generally in attendance at the walking contests at Madi- son Square Garden, is at the rink looking af- ter the condition of Hegelman and Cennor. MT. Smith is 8 competent handler of pedes- trians, as nearly all of the men whom he has cared for in walking contests have won. Mir. Joseph Miller of New York is at the rink in the financial interest of the walkers from the metropolis. The attendance during the evening was good. An audience of ladies occupied seats in the gallery. P. J. OKeefe and Wm. Doherty have the management of the race.

FEMALE HORIZONS WORK.

Alleged Woman is Warned.

Two Elders Tarred and Feathered and the
Alleged Woman is Warned.
BRMINGHAM,A Ala, Nov. ia large pro-
traGted meeting has been going on at the
Bethel church, a large settlement in the
northern part of Fayette county, during
the past week. Wednesday last a very
handsome female preacher put in an ap-
pearance, and, securing little church not
far from Bethel, began to hold what she
called Mormon exhortations. The young
men and the young women OF the neighbor-
hood became much interested in the "fe-
male preachers" meeting, and two young
women, daughters of respectable farmers,
confessed the Mormon religion and Joined
the church.
This aroused the hottest indignation OF
the better class OF citizens, and they deter
mined to run the handsome female
preacher out. Further investigation DIS
closed the fact that the young woman ex-
horter was being secretly support ed in her
work by two Mormon elders, who kept
dark. A committee hunted down the two
elders, and this morning they were tarred
and feathered and told to to 60. Many
think the handsome young female
preacher is nothing more than some young
villain disguised in female attire. An inves'
tigation is to be made il she breaches
again, and If such is the case the female
preacher will be lynched.

One Man Who Does not Claim That the
Police Robbed Him.
Albert Johnson, bellicose individual OF
uncertain age, was satheredi in by the police
Sunday night for raising small insurrec.
ton on Galena street. Albert had his
tank filled with valley tan warranted to
contain four fights to the drink and riot
to the bottle. He imagined himself a
cayote and that it was his night to howl.
The first whoop brought an nunappreciative
policeman, who took Albert under his pro-
tecting wing aud toted him of to the
bastile. When he was lined up before
Judge Newkirk yesterday morning, Albert
conf, ssed his guilt and asked for sentence.
"F,ve dollars and COSTS" remarked the
court.
albert have you the collateral with
which to liquidate or will you accept the
hospitality OF the city and take furnished
apartments at the city hostleryf" queried
City Attorney Corbett.
Il had $3.50 when I was corralled." :"
where is it?" replied Albert.
YES. sir; you are credited with that
amount on the books. Is that all you
had?" asked Corbett.
"Yse SIR"
"Albert you are curiosity in this court,
and were it within my power would re-
lease you. You are the only man can
now call 10 mind who had that amount
taken from him who did not swear the
next morning that he had $3.50 instead OF
$3.50. You are evidently an honest man
playing in hard luck, and al such extend
to you my sympathy"
Later Albert raised the necessary
amount to secure his release.

ries, manufactures and products of the
world in the city OF Chicago, state OF
Illinois. in the year 1892"
The bill recites the reasons for holding
such an exposition in Chicago an sets par
ticular emphasis upon the fact that Chicago
asks OF the United States government no
appropriations or loans for the purposes of
such exposition. It provides all articles
admitted free OF duty and the only appro.
priation asked for is that OF $50 900, viii h
il to be expended under the direction OF the
secretary treasurer for all purposes con-
nected with the admission OF foreign goods
to the exposition. The bill also provides

bi Ion by the government, from it's execu-
tive department., Smithsonian institute
and national museum, such articles and
materials as illustrate the function and
administrative faculties OF the government
in time: OF peace, and it's resources as a
war power, tending to demonstrate the
nature OF our institutions and their adap.
tlon to the wants OF the people.
