NEW CODE OF RULES.
The High School Under New Regu-
latiOns.

The High School Under New Regu-
lations.
The following new code of rules for
the government of the High school
have been adopted by the faculty and
approved by the board OF directors:
Pupils failing in one study will be
allowed to go on with their grade, but
must make up this failure by the end OF
the next semester, otherwise they must
take all the work again of the grade in
which they made such failure.
Pupils failing in two studies will not
be allowed to 90 on with their grade,
but must take all the work again of the
grade in which they made such failures.
Special etudents-th who take
only two studies-if they fail in one OF
them, will be dropped from the roll.
No pupil having failed in any study
of regular course will be allowed an
elective course.
No pupils will be allowed more than
four studies in Hemester-music and
drawing excepted.
The herald., 1893-10-12

with the matter of your ''belieis" the
board has nothing to do.
The law has not given you any power
to dictate to this board. You are au-
thorized to stats your objections and
this board is equally authorized to over
rule them il it sees fit. 1t has done go
in this case, and l therefore re-enclose
the demand herein and beg you will
number and record it or say that you
will not do 80. This action is made
mandatory upon you by the charter and
has no connection with your approval or
non-approval or with your "belieis"
upon this or any other question.
The law provides method by which
the acts OF this board may be passed
upon if any one is desirous OF testing
the legality of this expenditure, which
was fully discussed before it was incur
red and unanimously agreed upon as in
the interest OF and for the purpose of
maintaining the library at the highest
possible state of efficiency.
We think the public will be more in
clined to accept the judgment Of five
business men who have made study OF
the library question than the hasty and
ill-digested conclusions of an official
whose unconcealed desire is for news
paper notoriety.

MAJOR POWELL.

He Ascends Mount Lowe and Is
Charmed,
Major ]. W. Powell, director OF the
United States geological survey, and first
explorer of the Grand cafion OF the Colo
rado river, made the ascent, of Mt. Lowe
on Monday morning, in company with
Prof. Lowe. 1t was cloudy at the start,
that is there was thick stratum OF
clouds above Echo mountain. As the
party climbed up through Castle canon
to the rocky pass through the front
range, they entered the clouds and the
lower landscape was hidden from view,
but they presently emerged in the clear
sunshine and found themselves on island
peaks protruding through the sea of
rolling clouds. Finally the clouds lifted
and the entire magnificent panorama
was flooded with sunshine. Major
Powell was enraptured with the view.
In all his explorations through the
Sierras and the Rocky mountains, and
in all his travels in the Alps and other
mountainous regions of Europe, henever
witnessed more beautiful effect. He
pronounces the Mount Lowe railway,
after comparing it with the other noun
tain railways Of the world, as giving
access by unique methods to the finest
mountain resort in existence.
1t was gratifying to Prof. Lowe to have
the great work, on which he has ex-
pended fortune and years of time and
labor, 80 highly appreciated by the lead
ing explorer and geologiet OF the country,
With nerves unstruug and heads that ache
