THE NEW sPELLERs.
Tue Trouble In the school Committee to
Go to the Supreme Court.


Tue Trouble I'm the school Committee ia
Go to the supreme Court.
The wrangle in the school committee
over over the vote to introduce the new
Grav Speller in place of the Munroe
Speller has come to this point: That if
the committee does not recede from
their position or Il. ii. Butler g. Co.
the publishers of the Munroe speller do
not drop the proceedings they have
begun, Commissioner Stockwell i'll
bring the matter before the Supreme
Court.
There is no reason TO think that the
school committee will take back water.
The motion was passed in the meeting OF
the school board and when the vote was
doubted the motion was made to adjourn
and was carried.
This in itself would show that ma
jority of those prese 4 favored the change
i they would vote TO adjourn to cut off
debate.
The claim is made that the state law
provides that there shall be ma ajorty OF
the members elected voting in favor Of
any such change and that members of
the City Council who are members ex-
officio OF the school committee have no
right TO vote Oh such questions.
The supreme court can settle at once
the question of the law in the case and
Mr.. Siockwell is desirous that il shall be
settled, aud 1t will 20 before the supreme
court soon in all probability.

Months I'm the Year.

II Is I'm siberia and Is Frozen Nine
Months I'm the Year.
On the road from Irkutsk TO Kiakhta.
the frontier town of the Chinese empire.
the monotony of the journey is broken
by crossing Lake Baikal, a wonderful
lake frozen for nine months in the year,
which has sixty times the area of the
Lake OF Geneva, and has an average depth
of no less than 5,404 feet or more than a
mile. The cold is so terrible that when a
hurricane stirs the waters the waves often
freeze as waves; but when j. NJ. Price
crossed the cold had caught the lake
asleep, and the ice was perfectly smooth.
He had thirty miles to drive on the
solidifed water. He said:
"For about a mile from shore the ice
had thin layer OF snow over it, but we
gradually left this sort of dazzling white
carpet, and at length reached the clear
ice, when saw around me the most won
dsrful and bewitching sight / ever be-
held. Owing to the transparency OF the
water the ice presented everywhere the
appearance of polished crystal, and, al
though undoubtedly OF great thickness,
was SO colorless that il was like passing
over space. II gave me, at first, an un-
canny feeling to look over the side of the
sledge down into the black abyss beneath I;
this feeling, however, gradually changed
TO one OF fascination, till at last found
it positively difficult TO withdraw my
gaze from the awful depths, with nothing
but this sheet of crystal between me and
sternity.
81 believe that most travellers on cross
ing the lake on the ice for the first time,
experience the same weird and fascinating
influence. About half way across l
stopped to make a sketch and take some
photographs. 1t was no easy matter, as
found on getting out OF the sledge, for
the ice was so slippery that, in spite OF my
having felt snow boots on, could hardly
stand. The death like silence of the sur
roundings was occasionally broken, how
ever, by curious sounds, as though big
guns were being fired at some little dis
tance.
They were caused by the cracking Of
the ice here and there. was told that in
some parts OF the lake were huge assures,
through which the water could be seen.
Ii is for this reason that il Is always ad-
visable to do the journey by daylight.
We reached Moufshkaya, on the opposite
coast, exactly four and a half hours after
leaving Liestvenitz, the horses having
done the whole distance of thirty miles
with only two stoppages OF few minutes
each. II was evidently an easy bit of
work for them, as they seemed as fresh
when we drew M in the post-yard as
when they started ip the morning.

The Newport Election.
ESPECIAL TO THE NEws.I

NEWPORT, Oct. 24-The Republicans
are all ready for the election on Wednes-
day, and are coniideut that they will put
an end to Honeyism by their votes and
redeem the city from the men who have
so seriously damaged the city's reputation
abroad aud mismanaged its business at
home. On the face OF the voting lists the
Democrats have a majority of about 200,
but the Democrats, as a general thing,
do not approve of Mr.. Honey's way of
running the city, and thev all admit that
some Of the officials elected To office by
the present city government we're not just
what was expected. The city's credit has
been affected unfavorably. The extrava-
gance is no name for the record made
unworthy men were elected to Office aud
that the various department have been
run solely for party ends. This is the
sentiment OF great many Democrats, as
well as of all the Republicans
