New Schedule Of Salaries for
the High School Teach

graded schools of st. Paul has bden
much mooted the past year or two, and
it comprised one of the most interesting
phases of the meeting of the board of
school inspectors yesterday. The prob
lem was opened up again upon the
question of electing the corps of teach
ers for the coming school year. DR..
Stamm, the chairman of the committee
on German, submitted his report Of
teachers selected, and asked the con-
firmation of the board. He had Inti-.
mated that he anticipated opposition,
and it came from precisely the source
that be had looked for it to come. In
other words, Immediately upon the sub
mission of the report, Mr.. Pyle moved
to amend the motion SO that the teach.
ing of German, save in the high and
manual training schools, be abandoned
for the ensuing year. DR.. Stamm smiled
complacently, for he had already made
a count of noses. and felt tolerably safe
In his position as the champion OF his
native language. The roll cali was
taken, and Dir. Kean was the only in
spector who voted with Mr.. Pyle. 3
"Ah. In defeat again." exclaimed Dr.
Stamm, turning to Mr.. Pyle with a tri7
umphant smile. The latter evidently
concluded that no retort was called for.
and said nothing. .s.
An Innovation.
The board adopted an innovation that
will be heartily applauded, by at least
the ladies of st. Paul. In establis hing
+h I,,lo Af caln nrip for In
school and the manual training school
the inspectors departed from the time
hOnOred custom of paying premium
on sex Hereafter it will be purely a
question of capacity, individuality and
effective service. The schedule adopted
reads:
Grade 3, first year. $3.50; second year. 81, COO;
third year. 81, 900: fourth year, ST., 100; fifth
year. Si,i0O: sixth year. 81, POO. IL
Grade ., first year, $1,000; second year.
Si.1eO; third year, $1,000; fourth year, 1900;
fifth year, 81. 400: sixth year. 500.
Grade l. first year, Sl.G00; second year,
S1,201; third year, 81 400; fourth year. 81, 800;
fifth year. S1.60o; sixth year. LOO; seventh
S2,Olo.
Thus, it will he seen, no matter
whether the teacher be man or woman,
the salary for the same service'will be
identical. @224
President Scheffer was able to be pres
ent, but he had not sufficiently recover
ed from his recent illness to preside, and
at his solicitation Vice President
Bridgeman submitted list of the. corps
of teachers for the ensuing yeafs which
was adopted, upon the motiolpof Mr..
Scheffer. The report is appended.
Supervisors.
Snnt. Gilbert reported thai through
misunderstanding or something that Is
not explained, two of the SUPERVISORS
are not drawing even the minimum sal
aries given supervisors. The, lowest
salary, he said, is the same paid
first grade teachers in the high
school, and Mr. Pyle moved, in
order to equalize the pay roll, that the
first grade of the high school be adopted
as the minimum schedule Of the super
yiSorS, and the motion prevailed. Miss
Laughlin and Miss Brooks were then
regularly elected as supervisors, and
the probicm was solved.
Incidentally DIR. Bridgeman~ sug-
guested thatthe present place of meet
ing. the Office OF Mr.Auerbach, will be
too hot and noisy for pleasant summer
use, and Supt. Gilbert advised that the
city will doubtless allow the use of the
council chamber for board meetigns,
whereupon Mr.. Pyle moved the ap-
pointment of a committee Of three to
wait upon the mayor and the joint COM
mittee to ask for the same, and Messrs.
Scheffer, Smith and Stamm were so
named.
The board adjourned until Friday
afternoon at O'Clock. The appoint
