The attention of the boaru was called to
the efforts being made by committee
claiming to represent the unemployed,
which is soliciting subscribers for the as
semblage fund to assign whatever interest
they may have in that fund TO the city:
The statement was made at the board

tude of the officers and the committee
Chairman Erwin made statement regard
ing an interview that he had nad with
members of the committee who had called
upon him, and who after hearing the facts
and his views, admitted that there was no
good foundation for the attempt TO divert
the fund from what he had believed was
its proper use, some of them stating at the
time that they would make further eff
forts in that direction. The directors asked
the assemblage committee TO make public
statement regarding the matter at an early
date, and this will be done.
Mr. Reynolds, of the bureau Of justice,
appeared before the directors and asked
that the CLUB give some aid to the bureau.

SCHOOL OFFICERS BILLS.
Attorney-General Smith Says the State
Must Pay the Postage.

There having been question raised in
several counties as to the discretion Of the
County Commissioners in the matter of al
lowing bills of county superintendent for
expenses incurred In sending out postal
cards and circular letters giving notice of
institute meetings, etc, State Superintend-
ent Worries submitted the question to Attor-
ney-general Smith. who says in his opinion:
'All laws relating to the management of
the public schools should be given broad
and liberal construction, and applying this
rule Of construction to Section APO, L con-
clude that the county superintendent may,
and in fact it will become necessary for
him. to use the various kinds of stationery
mentioned in your communication, and in
deed, 1T is difficult to see how he could per-
form the duties OF his office as the statute
requires without reSorting TO such eXpendi-
lures. The public schools must keep pace
with the growth of population and the adj
vancement of science, and the labors Incl
dent thereto will increase as the condition
of the schools Is improved and the stand
ard or teaching becomes elevated; and to
meet this advanced condition the law has
wisely invested the superintendent with GER
tain discretionary powers relating to the
management OF the schools and the encour-
tgement of those under him who are en-
gagged in educational work To exclude him
from TIE use or proper stationery, printing
postage and expreSsage in the prosecution
of this work would be to relegate the school
system to the imperfect condition of the
past, and, in the name Of a parsimonious
economy, cripple and render inefficient the
public schools of the whole State. Public
policy and the cause Of education is opposed
TO such construction OF the statute while
its plainest reading supports the conclusion
here reached.
1.-The stationery which the statute ex-
pressly allows to the school superintendent
and such other not specifically mentioned
as in his discretion is necessary for a Judi
ciOus administration of the affairs of his
office, including postage, expressage, print
ing blanks, envelopes and circulars should
be allowed to him by the board of commits
sionerS. The county superintendent is a
county officer, and such stationery is for the
use or the county, and its payment is fully
authorized by Section 602S, r. s., 1881. The
reaSOnableneSs of such charges, however
IS q matter for the board TO determine The
action Of the board of commissioners in
matters of this kind is judicial in It's char
Gcter, and an appeal may be taken from
such order to the Circuit Court"

WOULDN'T COOK THE DOG.
George Pritchett's Domestic Rebelled-
A Cruel Practical Joke.

George Pritchett. a bartender at No. Isl
West Washington, was given two pet rab-
bits by a friend yesterday morning. He
gave orders that the strictest care be taken
of them. The man who was intrusted with
the care of the rabbits is a joker. Shortly
after the noon hour a small dog, much pet
ted around the place, died. When Pritchett
called for his rabbits in the evening to take
them home he was greeted with the news
that one OF them had accidentally been
killed. He concluded that he would get as
much out OF his gift as possible, and so
decided 70 take the rabbit home and eat it.
He left for his home with the live rabbit
held close under one arm and the dead rab-
Bit presumably under the other arm. When
he arrived home, he called to his wife and
told her that he had bought a rabbit for
supper and, afterward, on his way home
be had been given the live one. The wife was
delighted, and called to the cook to make
hurried preparations for the evening meal
A few seconds elapsed, when they were
greeted nv n series of shrieks from the di-
rectiOn OF the kitchen, and a moment later
were confronted by the cook, who angrily
demanded her wages, as she said that she
did not intend to work for anyone who
would ask her TO serve dog flesh for sup
per The wife and huband were dunn
founded, but on investigating found that
the cook had good grounds for her indigna-
ton II was with much trouble that the
usual domestic felicity restored, and

almost lost him a faithful servant

SET ONE DAY EARLIER
The Republican State Convention
Will Meet on April 25.
Why the Change Was Made-Dates for
the Fifth and Seventh District Con-
gressiOnal Conventions Fixed.

The Republican State committee has
voted, by letter. to change the date of the
State convention by one day, setting it from
April 26 to April %. This is done in order
that it may not conflict with the ami
versary celebration of the Odd Fellows
throughout the State. AT the time the
original date was set the fact that April
20 was the anniversary of Odd Fellowship
escaped the committees attention entirely,
but the committees notice was soon called
TO the fact by letters from prominent Odd
Fellows throughout the State, and a week
ago a delegation of prominent officers of
the order called upon Chairman Gowdy at
the Denson and formally requested that the
date be changed, so as not to conflict with
the celebration usually held by the order.
The chairman at once laid the matter be-
fore the members of the committee by let
ter, and suggested that the date be changed
to April %. Nearly all of the committee
men have replied favorably and the change
has therefore been ordered.
TWO CONGRESSIONAL CONVENTIONS.
The county chairmen and secretaries of
the Fifth district met at the Denison yes
terday and after careful consideration set
the date of the congressional convention at
May 10 and selected Martinsville as the
place. Their convention promises to be a
remarkably interesting event this year.
They feel certain of carrying the district
against Cooper, and five strong candidates
are already making active canvass for
the nomination. After this question had
been determined Chairman Gowdy and Sec
rotary Seeds of the State committee, were
invited TO the meeting, and each made a
brief talk on the subject of organization
and the circulation of newspapers. To this
latter subject the committee is devotins
that one Republican newspaper in Demo-
cratic hands now Is worth several hun
dred campaign documents in the midst of a
campaign, and is constantly urging the
county committee to use every effort to
circulate local and metropolitan newspapers
in their counties, and the county commit
tees are engaging in the work with much
| success.
After the Fifth district meeting the coun-
| ty chairman and secretary of the Seventh
| district met in Room "a and set the con-
| gressional convention for April "a in this
| speech to this committee, going over pretty
| much the same ground as he did with the

RIFLES FOR THE NATY.
The Lee Gun Made at Pratt & Whitney't
 to be in the Com petition.

The Lee Gun Made at Pratt & Whitney's
 to be in the Com mpetition.
 Hartford, Aug. 30.-On Saturday ot this week three naval experts in ord nance will meet at Newport for the pur- pose of beginning experiments with rifles intended for the naval service. The examination is part of the effort to secure for the navy a suitable rifle of the most approved type. To facili- tate the test and to make conditions identical, the navy department has is- sued rifles of 1862 caliber. There have been thirty three applications for these model barrels, and at least half that number are expected to be present for experiment.. The Remington works will offer three rifles and the Lee Gun company two rifles. The rifles of the latter company are made at the Pratt & Whitney works in this city. They are the inventions of MT. James P. Lee, the original in- ventor of the magazine principle, where the cartridges rest side by side. The Lee gun Is now in use in the navy. Several foreign types will also be pre- sented, including the German Mauser and the French Daudetau and Berthier, It is likely that the Krag-Jorgensen rifle, which has been accepted for the army. will also be competitive. It will probably take a year before the new navy rifle is ready for use. The test at Newport will be a full and com plete one, and it will take some time to manufacture the rifles.
