report for the year 1889, showing the pro
rata expense for each school for supplies.
The finance committee, through its chair
man, Mr.. Hunter, submitted a report on
rules relative to the Office Of treasurer. 1t
recommended that a suitable plan be pro-
vided, in which there shall be- fre-proof
safe and such other convenience as may be
necessary, where all books and papers shall
be kept, aud where salaries shall be paid at
hours other than those devoted to school
purposes. The report was adopted, and the
committee on supplies was authorized to
purchase suitable safe
The finance committee also reported on
the petition of certain male teachers asking
for an increase Of salaries Under the rules
salaries must be uniform according to
grades, and the committee, therefore, re-
TERED the matter back to the board, as it
was its province and not that Of the COM
mittee to change the rules. The report was
received and adopted, but no further action
was taken.

poses had been used for the maintenance Of
the schools.

a Colored Boy Gets Away With $40
from Mrs. Barie's Drug Store.
A 14-year-old coored lad named
Frank" employed in Mrs. NJ. A. Barie's
drug store, at Bryan and West Broad
streets, stole $40 from the safe in the Office
while Mrs. Barrie was at breakfast yester-
day morning. She left tine boy in the
store, and forgot to take the sachel contain
ing her keys upstairs with her, as she is
accustomed to do
When Frank" saw the sachel he opened
it, and finding the keys, he unlocked the
safe and cleared the money vault. When
Mrs. Barrie came down from breakfast the
boy was gone. She went behind the coun-
ter, and saw her sachel lying on the floor.
Knowing that she had forgotten to take
it up with her she opened it to see if it was
all right, when she missed the safe Key.
Going back into the Office she saw the key
ia the safe door. She opened the drawer
and all the money except about 50 in niekels
and dimes was gone. She placed the matter
in Justice McDermott's hands and it is
likely that the young thief will be appre-
hended soon

1t is Likely to Get Here in Tim
Though.
The cold wave which extends over the
central valleys as far south as the Gulf
coast will be felt on the Atlantic coast by
tonight. The signal bureau reports say
that the temperature will probably drop as
low as freezing tonight from New York
southwark to Northern Georgia. It will
fall 80 in the Middle Atlantic states. The
fall, when it comes, will be unusually rapid.
and cold weather will continue several
days.
Observer Whitney said last night that the
wave moved very slowly yesterday. The
barometer is very high, however, aud he is
pretty sure that there will be change
in the weather here within the
next sixteen hours. Very little
rain is reported anywhere. The clouds were
threatening most of yesterday, and people
got out their umbrellas thinking it might
rain. There was a slight sprinkle several
times during the day, but not enough for
the signal bureau to record even as trace.
1t still continues very cold in the west
AT st. Vincent last night mercury was 49,
below zero.

RAN AWAY WITH A MULE.
A Shrewd Carolina Negro Takes the
Law into His Own Hands.

AdW lDLO 11lS OWu 115uO5-
Aaron Green and Dorcas, his wife, of
Vaudeville, S. c., were arraigned in
Justice Sheftall's court yesterday charged
with running away with mule which Nat
Brown (colored) was under bond to produce
at Justice Pelot's court last Saturday.
Brown followed the fugitives over to Sa-
vannah, and is making a strenuous effort to
get possession of the mule to produce at the
Justices court, which postponed the case
until next Saturday.
The mule formerly belonged to Green,
but was levied upon to satisfy a claim
Green was in need Of the mule, and Brown
stood SIS bond, he said, in order to get the
mule for Green. When Green got posses
sion of the animal he and his wife packed
their furniture and came to Savannah.
They refuse to surrender the animal now
claiming that the mule is the property of
Dorcas, and could not, therefore, be levied
upon to satisfy claim against Aaron.
Justice Sheftall has written Justice Pelot
for information concerning the case, aud
expects to try it in few days.
