MAX ADLER, JAMES A. HowARTH.

NeW haven, OCCODor <, 1851.
 Both Messrs. Adler and Howarth were very indignant at being thus ignored by their associates of the board, and their action in the matter speaks for itself. MT. Howarth speaking of the matter said his actions was final in the matter. He meant business and evidently in his opinion in the case is fully shared by MT. Adler. He said there was nothing to hinder the board from accepting the resignations Unlike the resignation which MT. Leigh made, which was unsuccessful because not forwarded to the proper parties, these resignations, MT. Howarth said in answer to inquiry, had been sent to the proper spot. There was no reason, therefore, why the resignations should prove intellectual. The board, MT. How srth added, in answer to further inquiry, had power to appoint their successors. Said prominent citizen last night: An explanation in attempt at justification by the board of their exclusion of Messrs. Adler and Howarth from their rights as associate members is called for by the public

A SENSATION,

Messrs. Adler and HOwarth Resign From the Board-Thetr Reasons Therefor.
 Last night about midnight MT. Howarth of the board handed us the following: To Benjamin R. English, Clerk of the New Haven City School District, and Charles E. Graves, President of the Board of Education
 We, the undersigned members of the board of education of the New Haven city school dis trict, hereby resign our position as members of said board, said resignations to take effect at once.
 Our reasons for this action are these: Seven members of the board convened in the office of one of the members, and in secret caucus, to which the undersigned were not invited, made up ticket for the committee for the ensuing year.. A star chamber proceeding which the board of education heretofore, 50 far as we know, has never resorted to. If this was a political body in any sense, perhaps it might be looked for, but when seven members of the board resort to such proceeding, for the pur- pose of carrying out their aims and ob- jects, whatever they may be we know not, our constituency and the good of the school compels us to take this course.
 We have noticed diScords and confusion in some of our public boards and disliking ourselves to enter into similar contests which would be detrimental to the best interests of our public schools, is another strong reason why we take this course.
 In conclusion we would say to constitu- ency that we sincerely regret the cause which has led us to take this step, but our sense of honor and justice and particularly the interests Of the schools, to us and we trust to friends is a sufficient reason for this action.

THURSpAY. OCTORER 15. 12o


 The return of this anniversary reminds us of the privilege and duty of contributing to the sup port or the dear children sheltered beneath the roof Of the New Haven orphan asylum who have been deprived of their natural guardians and pro- tectors.
 The value of donation day to this distinctiveIy home charity cannot be overestimated. Without the liberal benefactions of generous public, so lberaliy bestowed in the past, the doors of this charitable institution would probably have been closed against many needy children. Each year it's beneficent work is enlarged to meet the growing wants of our rapidly increasing population. The past year is no exception. By the munif1cent gift of Mrs. Nathan A. Baldwin the beautiful Nina-Lynette nursery for infants has been erected and furnished and is now the home for little ones for whom the asylum could make no provision heretofore. The Ives cottage has also been built since last donation day While we remember with thankful hearts the liberal and willing responses in the past to the solicitations of the members of the donation day association, who cheerfully devote the day to this worthy charity, we would remind the givers Of the ever-increasing wants of the institution and of the self sacrificing lahors of the lady off cers and managers, who give much of their valu- able time to those homeless ones and again ap- peal in behalf of the asylum for your continued and increased iberality for donation day 1891 Members of the association committee will can vass for donations as usual, but persons willing to contribute and not likely to be called upon or expecting to be absent on that day, are earnestly requested to place their offerings with any of the banks, the postoffice or any member of the association or to remit the same to the president of the association
