BOARD OF EDUCATION.
It Transacfs Large Amount of
Routine Work


The board of education met yesterday
afternoon, but transacted little aside
from routine business. There was
little wrangie over the motion to secure
the Grand opera house for the school
commencement exercises june 9. Mr..
Gjertsen moved an amendment substi-
tuting the High school hall as the place
for holding the affair, and in the talk
that followed several different opinions
were set forth. President Austin said
that he believed there was some objec-
ton made by the building inspector to
having SO large a number of people
gather in hall Oh the third floor, at
which Mr.. Ankeny ventured the opin-
ion that, while the building inspector
had heretofore practically run the city,
he couldn't run the board of education.
1t seemed to be the general opinion,
however, that the High school hall
would be too small, and ultimately it
was decided to engage the opera house.
Superintendent Bradley's report was
read, in which he gave an exhaustive
account of his trip east, and his visits to
various seats of learning. His statistics
for the half school year ending Jan. "a,
showed that the number of boys enrolled
had been 9,327, girls Q, 422, total 49, 49,
total for previous half year 17,629. an in
crease OF 1,120.
The report of the teachers committee
recommended that substitute teachers
be allowed the same salary for the time
of their service as the teachers would
receive whose positions they occupied.
Mary Sterratt was named as substitute
for Miss Mckee as principal OF the
Lincoln school. The following appoint
ments were also made: Miss Araline
Arnet, to the North side high school,
Elizabeth Share to the Madison school.
Florence ". Parker to the Greeley,
Kate Stephens to the Harrison, and
Helen G. WybOrg to the Hamilton.
The committees report was adopted in
full.
a petition was presented by Charles
IL. Babcock, signed by large number
of South siders, asking that the board
select for site for the new high school
block 8, opposite the Washburn SEMI
nary, as they think it best that the
school should be situated east of the
short line tracks. The communication
was referred To the building committee.
The board voted to accept United States
flags offered for the schools py Butler
post, u. A. r., and number from the
people of the Adams school district for
THERE own building.
1t was decided TO send three plans of
Minneapolis schools to the Washington
educational department as representa-
tive school buildings OF the Flour City.
Those selected were the North side high
school, the Central high aud the
Madison.
The board authorized the issuance of
its notes to the amountof $50, 900 to meet
current expenses. The money will be
borrowed through Corser IL Co. at Sd
per cent and SIS commission.

NEW YORK. Feb. 26.-The sensational
story about the threatened disruption
between the National league and Ameri-

A Sane Pennsylvania Committed
to an Insane Asylum.
PITTsBURG, Feb. 26.-Last Monday
William Minnick, a well-known resi-
dent of Braddock, Pa. was committed
to the DixmOnt asylum for insane under
circumstances very peculiar. Mir. Min
nick had charged Rev. j. Z. Riley. a
Methodist minister of Monongahela
City. with paying improper attentions
to Mrs. Minnick during period of six
years. Minnick also accused his wife
OF receiving improper attention from
several other men, and had addressed
letters to certain individuals threatening
to shoot them if their attentions to his
wife did not cease at once. DIR.
Sandels, of Braddock, and DR..
McCord. of South Pittsburg. signed
the commitment of Minnick,
stating that Minnick was insane from
unwarranted jealousy. While on the
train en- route from Dixtmont, MinRIck
vigorously resisted the officers in
charge, protesting that he Was not
crazy, but was the victim of conspir-
acy to get him out Of the way. Several
prominent citizens of Braddock, neigh
borS of Minnick, were interviewed to-
day and agreed that Minnick is not in
sane. Some of them openly charge
Riley and others with indiscreet ac-
tons with Mrs. Minnick. Rev. Riley
says that he has not been guilty OF any
Ihdiscretion; that he had nothing to do
with sending Minnick to Dxmont and
he does not know whether he is insane,
but he does know that he he is unjustly
jealous. Rev. Eaton, of Braddoek,
states that Minnick engaged in prayer
in his church last Sunday evening, and
his prayer was not that of au INSANE
man. Squire Lewis and Others of Brad.
dock are taking measures to have Min
nick examined. and il possible removed
from the asylum. Braddoek is ali ex-
element over the event.

Lastevening there was a meeting OF
the members of the congregation of the
Fifth Presbyterian church, recently
burned, at the residence of the pastor,
Rev. John B. Donaldson, Cos Eighth
auenue north, to discuss the matter of
rebuilding. After a general talk it was
decided that, if possible, more deSir-

were submitted, and it is possible that
they will be accepted if the necessary
amount can be raised. A committee
