SCHOOL HOURS.
No Change Needed in the Schedule of
Daily Sessions.

No Change Needed in the Schedule of
Daily Sessions.
EDS. RECORD UNION: Frank Miller sug-
gests to parents to petition for change OF
the schedule of school hours for the sec.
ond or spring and summer term, from $50
to 1:30, as he has it, to the first or winter
term schedule, fiom 8 to 8. I would ad-
wise parents and critic, always to examine
the subject under consideration before
making any comments.
If Mr.. Miller will examine the rules and
regulations OF the Board of Education (see
page 81, daily sessions, second term, rules of
1889, he will see what time the classes
meet. l was q member of the committee
on that subject and attended, as l remem-
Der, seventeen meetings, and every PriDci-
pal and Vice-Principal of the High School,
the two Grammar schools and two Inter
mediate schools, attended each meeting
The old rule was commencing at $50 A. NJ.
to II; 1870 P. NJ. to 1:30 P NJ. Now the law
is $50 A. NJ. to u noon, and l P. NJ. to $50
P. NJ. The teachers concurred in the
change, so they teach five hours, just as
they do in the fist term.
The reason for commencing at $50 A. NJ
was because the scholars desired it, claim
ing that in the second term Tor summer
months) it was warm weather, and they
preferred $50 to 9 A. NJ. because it was
cooler. l am not in the Board, but the
rules | will defend, because they are fair,
and the teachers were not responsible, but
the Board and High School pupils. / am,
respectfully, ED. NJ. MARTIN.

Encroaching ON the Sidewalk,

Trustee Mclaughlin took carpenter and
policemen with him yesterday morning up
to G. P. Nathan's store on street, between
Sixth and Seventh, and tore down the new
show-window being built out upon the
sidewalk by the firm.
Trustee Mclaughlin states that he noti-
fed them that the window was being built
too far out on the walk, and ordered them
to remove it. Notice was given them four
times, and the order being unheeded the
Street Commissioner took the matter in
hand and removed it by force.
The proprietors of the store are quite in
dignant over the matter, and declare that
the Street Commissioner has shown parti-
atty in causing the removal of their show
window, while allowing the bootblack
stands to remain on the sidewalks.

Notwithstanding yesterday was the cold
est and most disagreeable day experienced
in this city the present season, there was
quite fair attendance Of sportsmen at Ag-
ricultural Park IN the afternoon to witness
the fifteenth of the series of trap shooting
matches that are being shot between the
teams representing the East and West, who
are now making tour of the continent.
The teams shot their first match at Dayton,
O., on January 23d, and have since shot at
Cincinnati, Louisville, St. Louis, Memphis,
New Orleans, Houston, Dallas, Austin,
San Antonio, FL Paso, Los Angeles, Stock
ton and San Francisco.
The Ell Paso shoot left the teams tie,
but from that time on the Fasteners have
had it all their own way. Yesterdays
match, however, turned the tables, the
Westerners trotting up to the front in good
shape.
The match was shot at "blue-rock" tar
gets. thrown from three strong traps
Their fight is much like that of the quail,
but they are much harder to hit, and
should afford excellent sport to the shooter,
while aiding him in becoming quick and
accurate wing-shot. The score was as fol-
lows:

A large number of people took advantage
of the pleasant weather on Sunday and
went to the State Capitol with theintention
of visiting the dome. They were in
formed, however, that on Sundays and
holidays the dome was not open to visit
ors.
Many thought this very strange rule,
and an employee of the building stated to a
reporter yesterday that, from his personal
observation, the better plan for the Capitol
Commissioners to adopt would be to close
the dome on week days and leave it open
to visitors only on Sundays and holidays.
as nine-tenths of the visitors come at the
latter time, only to be disappointed.
