Tacy are EH;O.nri.

1t Was stated IN the Evening Tele
gram last Saturday that an injunction
would be brought against the payment
of certain old standing claims against
School Ii;t NJ. y eSte day after
noon the legal action necessary III the
case was taken. The principal claim
brought against the school district was
brought by p. J. Mccain and is for
the sum of s4,27l.1. Mr.. Mccain,
was a subcontact0r under John NcGee,
who failed while prosecuting the con
tract of erecting the Matt Carpenter
school building. There are several
minor claims amounting to several
hundred dollars. At the last annual
meeting OF the district it was voted to
pay these claims, and an effort to re-
consider the action at an adjourned
meeting was Intellectual. 1t is claimed
that the original action was not legal.

Free Reading Room.

That free reading rooms are good
institutions to have in towns and
cities is conceded point. Superior
has public library and reading room,
but it is of course located at the " est
End. This end of the city is therefore
without anything of the kind. To
overcome this deficiency the Woman 5
Christian Temperance Union have
taken the matter in hand and made a
move in that direction. If they can
receive the necessary financial and
other assistance, the lower floor of the
Richie building on the corner Of Sec
ond street and Becker avenue will be

To Establish Night Schools.

The regular monthly meeting Of
school board No. /, was held last Tues
day evening. Bills and claims were
audited and few matters of minor
Importance disposed Of. The matter
of establishing a free night school for
the benefit of the numerous young
ladies and gentlemen who are unable
to attend day schools, was formerly
discussed, upon the motion of John
keaough, who believed that many pu-
pills would be enrolled as soon as the
school was opened. The discussion
WAS brief but to the point and al
though final action was deferred, it is
probable that the matter VIII be
brought to speedy and favorable ter
mination. If the board should decide
to establish the school, Prof. Hogan
Will probably be induced to take
charge Of the higher class.
