SCHOOL BOARD OF FOUR
CHE.

The first regular meeting of the
school board of this parish, for this
year, was held on Friday of last week,
the 9th inst
The treasurer, Mr.. Anatole j. Brand,
reported the condition of the treasury,
by which il appeared that there was Il
balance in his hands OF Two Tn ,usa.d
Sevon Hundred ana Forty. seven dol
lars and Thirty-eight and one quarter
cents.
The eifolts and labors of the school
board in improving the quality of the
teaching force 10y str.cter examinations
have shown very satisfactory results.
The problem Of improving the ia
c%ilities for instrueting the children of
school age in this parish was discussed,
and it was decided that, IN order to in
crease the length of the school term,
to provide for more schools and better
school buildings, an Increase of school
revenues was absolutely needed.
Therefore, as without aid from the
Police jury it is impossible to secure
to all the children of this. parish il
chance to get an education. it wds on
motion of Mr.. W. f. H"well, resolved
to urge the Police jury to make an
appropriation by which the school
revenues will be increased. and it was
also resolved that each member of the
, school board should circulate for sig
nature among the Taxpayers OF his
respective ward, a petition praying
the Police Jury for additional funds to
lengtlien the school session, to increase
the number of schools, aud to build
new school houses.
The new school which is to replace
the st. Vincent school will be called
the Enterprise and will be located on
the Albert tract between the Dixie
a d Enterprise" plantations,
1t was also decided to open the pub
lie schools in the parish on the iii st
Monday in February next, in conse-
quence of which the following assign
ments were made:

NO PATHWAYS PROVIDED.
PUBLIC PUT TO MUCH INCONVEN-
IENCE BY CONTRA CTOR SHAW.
Absolutely Impossible for q Lady or Any
One but an Acrobat to Cross the
Sewer Trench.

The pedestrians who have had occasion
to walk along Weybosset street, near Do-
rance duri ng the lest three weeks, have
sufr' red more unconvenience than they
wished.
Contractor Shaw, in digging the trench
for sewer, has no, been careful In
providing for those who wished
to cross the street, and most of
the time it has not only been Difficult
but impossible TO pass unless the ped es-
TRAN walked Learly block TO
Westminster or Pine street. There
have been frequent complaints
made to the workmen and to th. fore
man and his assistance asked, Du, all
have been unavailing. The "orkmen
know that Mr.. Shaw is disposed
to do just as little as he is
compelled TO and they take no notice OF
the troubles of those who wish TO pass. At
times there has been footpath con-
structed. hut even that has be IN poorly
done and CT ossing on II has been danger
Gus.
But this crosswalk has been main
tanned only at widely separated inter
walls. Yesterday afternoon the con-
dltion OF affairs was particularly agRra-
vating. A large crowd Of people were
walking along the street and were using
trench when a teamster drove up and
deliberately dumped loid of BRICK
In front of the west side OF the
opening and an ofiicious workman
nailed u board up in front OF the other
size. Remonstrances were OF no avail.
The contractors men acted as though
they owned the ri hit Of way and the
whole street as well.
The cont ract under which Mr.. Shaw Is
building the sewer provides that at all
times he shall maintain at his own ex-
psnse suitable foot-path over
all trenches and that he shall
obstruct travel as little as possible.
In this respect he has violated his con-
tract again and again. lie has been
warned aud pie AIDED with by the city en-
gineer and by Mr.. Clapp who has
the matter in charge, Uut even then Mr..
Shaw has done only what lie was abso-
lutely compelled TO do.
The citizens are now getting anxious
about Westmia ster street. lucy want
to know whether they are to be hindered
nom passing up and down tbaS
thoroughfare as arbitrarily and unneces.
sarily AS has been the case with Wey-
bosset street. IL things are 20 continue
as at present, the citizens will wart TO
know why n contractor does not comply
with his contract and accommodate them.

CHICAGO, Aug. There has not been q
general disposition on the port of the ex-
hibtors and employees 10 confirm to the
order of the council of administration re-
garding the scrutiny and stamping OF
passes good after Aug. l." Many Of these
full term pass holders say they are not
going to run after the chief of their depart
ment or the subordinates of Supt. Tucker
to be inspected and investigated.
The British exhibitors and .l,eir employees
talk in defiant way about their rights and
the ability Of any man to keep them away
from their exhibits when they hold IA full
term pass They declare their intention OF
jumping over the turnstiles il the ticket
takers refuse them admission on their
passes and intimate that the British com
missioners gave them such instructions.
Other foreign exhibitors ~S.ke the same
ground that as the passes they received
came through the commissioners from their
country they will take orders from none
other than official representatives of their
governments. The exhibitors say they
have submitted to enough restrictions and
indlgnities in regard to their free admission
to the Fair
There is much complaint among both
foreign and domestic exhibitors who have
already met with refusal from the depart
meet chiefs of Supt. fuckers department
to mark passes good after Aug. /, OH the
ground that the holders are not regularly
employed in attendance on exhibits.

Labrador Is very unsatisfactory. The Fall

after n very rough and disagreeable pas
sage from ST. Johns She was swept by
heavy seas, which did considerable dam
age The donkeys which Lieut. Peary
took with him on boar TIE Falcon were in
a perishing condition from the results OF
exposure ani the injuries received when
Battle Harbor was reached
Lieut.. Peary made a two-days' stay ut
Battle Harbor to enable him TO repair
damages and to give the animals chance
to recuperate. While there he tried to
purchase dogs, but fa.ed. He then sailed
for Turnavil. Exorbitant prices were
asked for the dogs there, SO the lieutenant
decided not to purchase. He visited Hope
dale next, and there the same thing hap
pened.
While at Hopedale he seriously contem-
plated killing his donkeys. He intended
to visit the more northern parts of Labra-
dor for the the purpose of getting dogs,
though the delay would seriously endan-
ger the success of his plans.
1t is now considerably after the time
when he should have sailed for Greenland,
with good prospects of success. The sea-
son is getting late and the chances are
that he will be unable to reach Bowdoin
Bay, as the steamer may be frozen in and
be unable to get clear until next year.

to be financial Stress At the works this
is denied 1t is asserted that the reduction
in the force is for the purpose Of taking
stock Superintendent George +. Ballou
has resigned and Charles Young has been
appointed to succeed him.
There is trouble among the hat factories
OF this city and Orange Valley. Orders
have been steadily falling off and many
counterniands have been received for or
ders already booked. The cause is the
stagnaton in the western trade. Some
shops are already closed and others are
about to follow suit. Not one is working
to it's full capacity. The closure of these
shops would throw 5000 operatives out OF
work
