BOYS ANXIOUS TO LEARN.
sUPT. BAKERS REPORT UPON THE
PUBLIC NIGHT SCHOOL.

! The Board of Education to Provide
More Rooms for the Sohooi-The su-
perintendent's Recommendations
Other Matters Discussed by the
Board.
Commissioners Mercer. Walker, Hunter,
Myers, Tattnsn, Blum, Arson and Estil
were present at the February meeting Of the
board Of education lsst night Col George
A. Mercer, president, presided. and MIR. w.
H. Baker. secretary, was in bis place.
Supt. Baker read his monthly report.
Referring to the night school, he said:
1.-THE night school was organized on Mon
day evening, Feb. 2. Tne attendance on the
first night was nearly $50. On account Of
the discrepancy in the ages and attachments
Of the applicants IL was found expedient 20
divide the school into two classes. There
should be four classes in order to secure
good results; in such q case il would be
necessary to use other rooms. No teacher
ought to have more than thirty boys under
his charge. and it Is not well TO change the
teacher so frequently as is now the case.
The school is now taught three evenings
during the week. Thus far the
instruction has been restricted to arithme-
tic and English grammar. Il was painful
to discover so many boys of IS and IL years
of age who seem TO be ignorant Of the fun
dsmental principles of numbers. The class
is orderly in department and earnest In at
tention to their work. The boys come to
learn. and seem to appreciate the fact that,
with their education, or want Of education,
they are totally unfit for the practical bust
ness of life. If the school Is to be q success
an appropriation for further accommodate
tions and for the securing of regular
teachers Will be necessary"
Commissioner Estill reported that the
school building at Isle OF Hope needed re-
pairs and the school needed addltlal fur
niture. On motion he was authorized to
have what work he thought necessary done,
and the committee ON supplies was re-
quested to furnish the furniture.
On motion of Commissioner Estill the
committee on school houses was instructed
to fix up additional rooms for the night
school.
There was lengthy discussion in regard
to changing certain rules. relative to the
manner Of paying teachers, but no
change was made
Commissioner Blum moved that the
finance committee prepare a statement
concerning the public schools for the infor-
nation of the grand jury.
Commissioner Myers made no formal re-
port on the new Henry street school house,
but stated that he was getting matters in
shape for the consideration Of his COM
mittee.
There was a jam of scholars at the night
school. The boys are taking great inter-
est in their studies. The attendance is SO
invited the committee on school houses to fit
up another room. The public night school
has evidently come to stay and 10 destined
to do o great work.

THE MAYORS FIRST VETO
ALDERMAN MYERS AMENDMENT
TO THE SUNDAY LAW.

"
Mayor McDonough vetoes 1t on the
Ground That to Allow the Hotels TO
Sell What Other Dealers May Not,
Is Discriminative and Unjust Legisla-
tion-Violators of the Law Last Sun
day to Be Before the Mayor To-day.
The hotels enjoyed the privilege Sunday
of selling cigars to their guests, but if they
do 90 next Sunday it will cost the proprie-
tors a nice sum for fine.
Mayor McDonough yesterday made use Of
the veto power conferred on his Office by the
last legislature for the first time since 1t be-
came law, by vetoing Alderman Msldrim's
ordinance, which was passed at the last
meeting of council, after being amended by
Alderman Myers so as to allow hotels to sell
cigars and papers to guests.
The following is the wording Of the veto,
signed by the mayor, on the back Of the
ordinance:
veto the ordinance on account Of the amend
ment. AS the law now stands am not in favor
OF this discrimination.
Mayor McDonough opposed the passage
of the amendment in the council on the
ground that it swas class legislation, and
therefore improper. When the aldermen
passed it the idea probably never entered
their minds that the mayor would make use
of the veto power. but Mayor McDonough
is man who believes in having just laws,
applicable alike to all. He took the matter
under careful consideration, and it was
only after becoming thoroughly convinced
that the law was unjust in giving hotels
privileges which were denied Individuals,
that he made use of bis prerogative.
Whether the board will pass the ordnance
over the mayors veto 10 a question which
remains TO be seen, but Mayor McDonough
is satisfied that he is right IN putting him
self on record against discrimination In the
city's laws.
Eleven violators will appear before the
mayor this morning to explain why they
violated the law last Sunday. The list
comprises one saloonkeeper, four fruit
dealers, two green grocers, one clothier, one
druggist and two news dealers. MessrS Essill

ting them on the docket is quite surprise,
as it was generally thought they were ex-
empt under the law. but such seems not 10
