Talks About Canadian Matters.
OTTAWA, Ont, March 22.-In the
house of commons Mr.. Tisdale intro
duced the following motions,
.That in view OF the early compile
ton of the canal around st. Marys
rapids, upon the Canadian shore, and of
the enlargement and increased depth of
our canal system to the Atlantic sea-
board, and also of the ever increasing
volume of traffic tending in that direc-
ton, it is desirable that Canada should
have a complete and uninterrupted
waterway from the head of Lake
Superior to the Atlantic ocean
through her own territory; that
In the furtherance of such
an object, the minister ofrailways and
canals should with all reasonable dis
patch proceed to have explorations and
surveys made to ascertain the most di-
rect and feasible manner of connection
of Lake St. Clair or River st. Clair, by
canal with Lake Erie through Cana
dian territory and report upon same
with an approximate estimate of the
cost thereof to the house."
Speaking of his motion he severely
criticised the diplomatic course pur-
sued by the United States toward Can.
ada ever since the war of 1912 and con-
demned the whole course Of diplomatic
action of tho United States. No action
was taken on the motion.

With soiled garments and a wan face a
fTail, little woman staggered to the en-
trance Of the City Prison early yesterday
morning ana asked for shelter and food for
herself and two little children. She car
ried babe in her arms aud led little girl

i have for some years lived in San Jose
with my husband, Gustave Slagett, and our

laborer, but he always provided fairly we'll
for us. A week ago he sold everything we
had, and declared that he intended to 90 to
Stockton to work. He bought a ticket for
me, gave me % cents, and put me with my
twO-year-Old boy and eiRht-year-old girl

on the next train with the rem maining
four Older children. That is the last l

MAY DISCHARGE TEACHERS.
Another Supreme Court Decision on
Their Tenure of Office.

AnOther supreme Court Decision on
Their Tenure of Office.
The Supreme Court yesterday handed
down a decision that, in connection with
that in the famous suit of the late Mrs.
Kennedy, settles the question of the tenure
OF office of teachers.
The opinion of the court is in substance
that whenever it Is recited in the minutes of
county or city Board Of Education that a
teacher is employed for specified period of
time. she may, upon the expiration of that
period, be dismissed by the board at its
Will and pleasure at any future time.
Ihe appellant, in the case decided. is
Eunlce ID. Marion. On May 29, 1856,
she began teaching in Oakland under q
resolution passed by the Board of Educa-
ton electng herself and others as teachers
lor the period of one year. and held her
position until 1889, when another teacher
was elected to fill her place. She then sued
the Board OF Education under section 1898
OF the Political Code, which provides that
no teacher can be removed from Office eX-
cept for cause.
In the case of Kennedy vs.. the Board of
Education OF San Francisco, upon which
she relied, the board had simply elected the
teacher, without specifying any particular
period during which she should hold Office.
The Supreme Court saws that by reason
OF that omission Miss Kennedy held her
position under the foregoing section Of the
code, but that In the present case the board
had snecltied the period of one year and
that her Office expired at the end of the en-
suing year, beyond which time she was
practically retained on sufferance only and
subject to removal at the pleasure of the
board.

What is needed at the station is two

and seize them when they get within the

were made it would somewhat put a stop to
