21oTors SCHOOL BoYs.-As stated
Yesterday a small-sized riot took place
Yesterday afternoon between colored
bows from Snowden school and white
hos from Washington school at the
intersection of Wilkes and st. Asaph
streets. in which bricks and rocks were
hurled. One gentleman who under
took to quell the disturbance was at
tackled by the rioters and barely cs-
capped serious injury, and a Young lady
and several other persons who happen
ed 10 be in the neighborhood made mar
row ESCAPES from flying stones. Ii Is
said several colored women appeared
on the scene and urged the negro boys
on. Several of the participants were
more or less hurt. Tie police have the
names of most the parties engaged IN
the disorder and will have all by Mon
day. when the boys will be tried by
Mavor Strauss. A year or two ago
similar proceedings were enacted near
" every day in the same neighbohood,
and it is thought the action OF the
School Board last week in ordering the
white and colored schools 10 be dismiss
ed at the same time is to be deplored.
Wilkes and Wolfe streets especially are
every day the scene of more or less dis
order upon the dismissal of Washing
ton school, most of the scholars sup
posing that pelting each other with
stones is an innocent recreation. Some
of the members of the School Board
have determined to ascertain the names
Of the most obdurate of these scholars
and enforce the rules of the board by
evnelIinp them.

the matters involved IN the contract.
There was an incident at the outset
OF the meeting which was rather sur
prising to some Of the gentlemen pres
ent. 1t was stated that the
Holly Company made request, short
~ after the meeting opened, that the
Board deed over TO their Company the
tract of land purchased for site for
the new pumping station north Of the
city. This the Board absolutely refused
to do, and a spirited debate ensud
which made the entire ente rprise seen
in precarious and uncert ain position
for time. The differences were finally
adjusted, however, the Board main
tanning its ground on the objection
and the consideration Of the specifca-
tions and plans proceeded until quite 4
late hour.
