OIten Deen compared. consequently
our work, as | have before stated, might
have been accordant. The accidents
which nnavoidably happened fully eX
plain why certain specimens of air went
below in carbonic acid that which is
usually accepted as normal in pure air.
DIR. Pinkham, in referring to the Red
Rock street school, and to the small
per cent of carbonic acid found, also
makes the statement that the air fur
niShed the rooms at that time was prac-
tically pure.
Is it not possible to have practically
pure" air furnished some of our schools?
From certain data at our command [
believe it to be within the range of pos
sibilities. The proposition certainly is
logical and reasonable.
Very respectfully,
W. S. EBERMAN,

The special committee to which was
referred the matter of charges made
against Inspector Wright by an evening
paper reported as follows:
ST. PAUL, Mimi. March 2, 1891.
To the Board of Education.
GENTLEMEN: Your special committee
to which was referred the charge of
non-reSidence and inSinuatiOns of of
fetal misconduct made against Inspector
Wright by the St. Paul Dispatch re-
spectfully report that they met and in
vited the editor of the Dispatch to be
present and make and sustain his
charges. This he declined to do. They
therefore listened to Inspector Wright's
statement to the effect that he had been
a resident of the Seventh ward since
1880; that he had not been absent from
the ward except for two summers at his
cottage at Dellwood, White Bear Lake,
Washington county; that he never in
taV Inh 70 oil I,i.
and that he remained there solely for
recreation.
In the absence of any one to prose-
cute the charge, your committee ac-
cepted the statement of Inspector
Wright and ask to be discharged from
further consideration of the matter,
and that the legal question of residence
or nOn-reSidence of Inspector Wright be
referred for decision to the Corporation
Respectfully submitted.

Committee.
Inspector Wright also submitted the
following:
ST. PAUL. Mimi. March ,, 1891.
10 the Board of Education.
GENTLEMEN: The committee whose
report is now under consideration was
Instructed. you will remember. TO in
quire into any official misconduct on my
part since | have been a member of this
Board. At the time of its appointment
the st. Paul Dispatch had made dis
tlnct charge that i'll violation of law
had retained my seat in the Board while
a resident of another county. 1t had
a Hc iotr
without, however, furnishing q single
particle of proof or evidence, that GER
tain contractors had controlled my ac-
ton as member of this Board.
At the meeting of the committee, the
editor of the Dispatch was requested to
be present TO formulate and sustain his
charges. This he declined to do, and
was not present. The committee there
fore did not take up the inuendoS and
inSinuationS that have appeared when
ever the Dispatch has discussed the
affairs OF this Board. but confined its
investigation to the charge of nOn-resi-
dence. | therefore content myself
with a general denial of anything
and everything that could possibly
be construed against me in the covert
and cOWardly language used, and ap-
peal to an honorable record of twenty
four years residence in this city,
against such hints and insinuations.
AS to nOn-reSldence, L desire to make
the same statement here that | made to
the committee. / nave been resident
OF the Seventh ward of this city since
1880. | have never resided elsewhere,
nor been out of the ward, except Oh bus
mess trips to the East, and two sum-
mers that have spent at my cottage at
White Bear lake, Dellwood station, in
Washington county. Each summer l
went to the lake about May l, and re-
turned between Sept. and Oct. l. /
did not leave the city with the inten-
ton, or for the purpose of change of
residence. but simply for recreation
during the summer. [ have always
voted in the Seventh ward, and have
served as judge of election in the Sew
enth ward twice since my sojourn at the
lake. The United States census enumer-
ators took my name as resident of the
Seventh ward, and had not the slightest
