 parallel between the board of education and the police commission. The school had funds to pay out and the police com mission did not.
 MT. VanHl ose could not see why the city should not be trusteds
 Mir. Ullman said this bill was not born of any idea of any misappropriation. The board had made certain arrangements and the city council comes along and says We can't do ii.
 Mayor VanHoose said if the mayor and aldermen coll .ect the money aud the books show II the money should be there.
 Mir. O Brien observed that if the police commission had the power to collect tax then the mayor's comparison might apply. The board of education handled other money than that appropriated by the city, and when the city uses money appropri- ated for school purposes it nses money that don't belong to it.
 Air. Lane called for the question on his resolution, and Messr5. O. Brien, Lane and Ullman voted for and Messrs. VanHoose and Lowery against 1t.
 Mir. Lowery opposed the section chargiug 2 a fee, but favored the board having it's own treasurer. Mayor VanHoose favored the fee, but opposed the board having a treas- urer.
 Mayor VanHoose suggested that the schools open January 2, instead of Decem- Der 31, but the board didn't agree with him, and the schools will open next Mon day, as advertised.
 The board on motion adjourned.

A CRAZY MANS DEED.

INFLICTs DANGEROUS WOUNDS UPON TWO
 PERSONS AND KILLS HIMSELF.
 NEWCASTLE, Pa., Dec. 27.--At Ellwood last night August Permontir, French man, employed at the Peerless Lamp Chimney factory and boarder at the resi- dence of James Meister, attempted triple murder and then killed himself.
 PeImontir had for several days acted oueery. At 10 o'clock last night he went to the second floor of his boarding house and without warning shot twice at young Miss Meister, 16 years of age. Fortunately his aim proved untrue and his intended victim escaped injury. Permontir then ran down stairs aud shot. at another of Meister's daughters, IS years old. The bullet entered her breast, inflictiug a very dangerous wound, which may cause death. Robert Charles, another boarder, tried to overpower the demented would-be assas- sin, and was also dangerously sbot, the bullet entering his groin. Permontir then went out to the front porch and fired shot through his head. Death was in- stantaneous.
 Permontir was 26 years old. He has two sisters residing at Fostoria, O. Nothing of his history is known.

 ''For the same reasons.'
 ''By the way, did you evsr know an honest investigation in this city, and do you think the present committee is an honest one?'

WEDDED AT FAYETTE.

FAYHTrE, Dec. 27.-[Specal Correspond . ence. IA most beautiful wedding took place here last night. It was the marriage of John H. Banknead, Jr., to Miss Musa Harkins. The groom is the son of Con- gressman John H.. Bankhead, ana the bride the daughter of the congressman 8 mercantile partner at this place, MT w.. w. Harkins. The ceremony was performed at the Methodist church by R.v. D. A . Burns, the pastor of the Methodist church of this place, and was done in most solemn and impressive manner. Though the weather was bitter cold large au- dience witnessed the ceremony, after which many of the friends repaired to the residence of the brides father, where an elegant supper, which did credit to the already well-established reputation of Mrs. Harkins in that line, awaited them.
 The church house was gracefully and beautifully decorated iu holly and other appropriate evergreens, and a tastefully ar ranged arch hung just above the heads of the high contracting parties. Precisely at 7:30, the appointed hour, the bride, on the arm of the groom, came slowly down the aisle Of the church to the march of one Of the old masters, touchingly reu- dered on the church organ by the talented Miss Ellie Yerby of this place, and as- bumed their position before the chancel in front of the minister.
 The bride was elaborately md exqui- sitely dressed in whi,e silk, and held in her hand large bouquet of rare flowers. l am sure l never saw prettier or sweeter looking bride. The groom was clad in an elegant suit of black, and looked every inch man. The presents were unusually handsome and abundant.
 The groom is a splendid young lawyer of Jasper, Ala, and of the firm of Coleman & Bankhead of that city. After spending bridal trip of few weeks in Washington and other cities the happy couple will re- turn and make their home in that place.

OWING TO THE IREAsURY'S ACTIONS, HAS
 BEEN DISSOLVED.
 NEW YORK, Dec. 27.-The banking firm in charge of the government bond syndi- cate has sent out the following notice to the members: 'sThe action of the United States treasury on currency questions hay ing stopped the progress of the sale of bonds for the account of the per cent bond syndicate, and the period of thirty days mentioned in the notice of Novem Der having expired, the syndicate is dis solved.'
 The agitation about currency reform and the number of peculiar suggestions made by government officials ana members of congress, it is-said, has ruined the market for these bonds generally and the price for the new 6's has in consequence gone below the syndicate figure. Q
 The syndicate disposed of 85 per cent of the issue, and the remaining 65 per cent was divided among the members.
