uniform system of examination estab-

stated that over 30 per cent of Pennsylva-

teachers vino have no ambition for higher
scholarship thus making it unfair to teach
pare themselves for the highest grade
of certificates, inasmuch as under
the economic law the price de-

therefore, the holders of poor certificates
have tendency to keep down wages,
superintendent Waller favors such legfsla-

ROCK AND RAZOR.

Last night between 10 and II o'clock DR..
st. Johns Office bore all the appearance of
a military hospital in time Of war. There
were two colored men there having their
wounds, from which streams of blood
were flowing, attended to- Their names
were David Baty and John Crawford
Crawford INDUCED in the pleasurtble pass
time of beating colored woman about
two months ago for which he was arrested
tried, found guilty and given fifty days in
the city Jail. At the trial Baty was one
of the principal witnesses against him.
Day before yesterday Crawford was re-
leased. Last night he was down among
his old baunts on South Fourth avenue
where he ran across Dave Baty. He immed-
lately sought revenge on Dave for swear
ing so hard against him at his trial and
a general row followed. In the hostilities
Crawford hit Baty on the head with a
rock with such force that the said head
will be carried in sling for several days
at least. In return Baty flashed out a
bright and shining razor and with it
opened Crawford's face from the left eye
down to the chin. When Crawford was
seen at the city Jail last night his face
resembled crazy quilt, so numerous were
the designs made on the black back
ground of his cheek with scraps of stick
ing-plaster of spotless white. Both of
them will be arraigned in Judge Mu-
suffers court this morning on a charge of
disturbing the peace.
