month of the old term is at an end, and this
necessarily means changes of some kind. It
means several changes in the membership of
the board, but probably there will not be
more than one change in the officers.
The old term expires on Monday night,
next, and on that night a meeting will be
held in the Superintendent's office to finish
up the business of the old board and organize
the members holding over and those who
were elected at the last spring election.
The members who will retire will be
Messrs. Philip Gable Of the Fourth ward,
and William Bachman, of the Fifth.
Messrs. Patrick Conry, of the First ward;
Daniel Ogden, of the Second, and William
Trezise, of the Third, will be sworn in again
by reason of their reelection.
The gentlemen who will be sworn in and
take seats on the board for the first time will
be Messrs. II. w. Titman, Second ward;
Manley, Fourth, and Davitt, Fifth. This is
Democratic gain of two, and will leave the
political complexion of the board for the
ensuing year ten Democrats to five Citizens.
When organized and ready for business the
membership of the board will be: First ward
-Conry, O'Hearn, Hanna. Second-Ogden,
Lynch, Titman. Third-Trezise, Beddall
Davenport. Fourth-Brennan, Burke, Man
ley. Fifth-Gallagher, MuldOon, Davitt.
There has not been much talk about the
election of officers of the board. The Citi-
zen members have not bothered their heads
about that part of the organization because
they are hopelessly in the minority, and the
naming of any one in that party for an office
will be a mere matter of form.
So far as the Democratic members are con-
cerned, they appear to be perfectly harmoni-
Gus and will be unit on the organization,
so that the officers will be elected without any
ado. Messrs. Conry and Hanna will no doubt
be reelected to the respective positions of
president and secretary. The only change
will be in the treasurership. 1t is said P. J.
Ferguson will be elected to succeed Mr..
Bells.
| No election of teachers will take place ON
Monday night. The school rule requires that
such elections shall take place on or before
the 10th of June. 1t is the custom Of the
local board to fix the time for the election of
teachers ON the night the board is organized.
This rule will no doubt be followed this year.
On Monday the term of L. A. Freeman as
superintendent of the schools also expires,
and as he has declined reelection, will
leave for his home in Providence, Rhode
Island, early next week.
School Directors Conry, Muldoon and Gal
lagher and J. L. Coyle Esq, visited Harris

his return yesterday: There are no new de-
velopments in this matter. Ex.Superinten-
dent Waller is absent from Harrisburg and
DR.. shatier, the new superintendent, has NOT

Patrick Conry, Harry Muldoon, Anthony

Thursday they were met by Senator Monag-

one playing a mandolin and the other a
guitar would you like to have any special
tune" asked the Senator, turning to the
ouartette of visitors. "Are they good
players ?" asked Conry, Great" was the
Senator's reply. "Ask them to play the
Spanish fandango' suggested Coyle, who has
a slight attack of the Eulalie fever which has
swept New York. The Senator found the
Italians could not play the tune and asked
for another suggestion. Mr. Gallagher named
the "Marseilles," which hit the mark, for
the Italians nodded in the affirmative when
asked if they could play it. While the
musicians were tuning up their instruments
they sized up the Shenandoah FOUNDERS with
sly side glances and whispered to each other

Whitaker, who was elected superintendent
by the majority members of the School
Board.
The legal decision was made by At
torney General Hensel. State Superinten-
d mt Waller relieved himself of responsibility
by referring to Hensel the question as to
whether the certificate Mr. Whitaker re-
ceived in 1876 entitled him to hold the
position. The Attorney General decided that
Mr.. Whitaker was not obliged to stand an
examination in the additional branches.
As soon as Mr. Ehrhart heard of the de-
cision he wrote out his resignation from the
office of principal of the High school and
sent it to Frank Hanna, secretary of the
School Board, with a notice that to-day
would be his last in the position, the term of
the office having expired on Wednesday last.
The following is an exact copy of the de-
cison in the case:
OFFICE OF ATTORNEY GENERAL,
HARRISBURG, PA, May 3O 1893.
Hon. D. j. Waller, JT., Superintendent OF
Public Instruction.
DEAR SIR Il am in receipt of your COM
munication of the 9th inst. inquiring
whether you can legally withhold the COM
mission from the duly elected superintendent
of schools in Shenandoah borough, who holds
| professional certificate, because certain
branches taught in the schools of that bor-
ough are not included among those upon his
certificate; and whether the law requires of
any superintendent of schools qualifications
beyond those expressed in valid professional
certificate.
Section 13 of the Act of April 9th, 1887,
provides that mo person shall hereafter be
eligible to the office of county, city or bor-
ough superintendent in any county of this
Commonwealth who does not possess a
diploma from a college legally empowered to
grant literary degrees, diploma or state
certificate issued according to law by the
authorities of a State Normal School, or pro-
fessional certificate from a county, city or
borough superintendent of good standing.

unless he has sound moral character and
has had successful experience in teaching
within three years of the time of his cleo
tion."
Your communication states that, in the
case to which it relates, the election was due
and legal that the person elected holds {
professional certificate which, l assume, hai
been duly issued, and it is to be presumed hC
has a sound moral character and has had
successful experience in teaching within
three years of the time of his election. Thes'
fill the full measure of the legal require
ments.
There is no provision of law requiring o
any superintendent of schools qualification
beyond those expressed in valid professiona
certificate, nor is there any specification thai
such certificate must include all thu
branches Taught in the schools of the Dor
ough, city or county to which he has beer
elected superintendent.
advise and instruct you, therefore, that
upon the case stated by you, you have N
right to legally withhold this commission.
Very truly yours

Attorney General.
