WASHINGTON, March 7.-Representa-
tive Blanchard's associates in the House
heard with much satisfaction, late this
afternoon, of his elevation to the Senate
from Louisiana Speaker Crisp expressed
regret that the House was to lose such
valuable and hard-working member. 1t is
settled that Representative Catchings, of
Mississippi will succeed Mr.. Blanchard as
chairman of the important river and har-
ber committee. Mr.. Blanchard $ position on
tariff and silver will give additional inter-
esI to his entrance to the Senate. He voted
for the Wilson bill, despite the fact that
II bore heavily against the sugar interests
of his State. He worked diligently TO
change the sugar schedule, but, failing in
this he would not follow the course of
some of his Louisiana associates in voting
against the entire bill. On silver Mr. Blanch-
ard has always voted and acted with the
radical free-silver men. that he will un-
doubtedly ally himself with that element

fuse to Issue Certificates.

PITTSBURG. March Tt Is stated that
the central board Of education will reject
the application Of the nuns for teachers
certificates at it's coming meeting, a straw
vote showing but five of the members in

courts TO recognize the nuns. If the appli-
cations are acted upon favorably the Junior

take the matter into court. Large sums

pose, and il is the intention to carry the
case through the highest courts in the land.

ment of the claim of Mrs. Janet NJ. Bald
win, of San Francisco, for the killing of her
husband in Mexico about six years ago
Baldwin was a miner, and was killed by
outlaws while on the way TO his claim. AL

countable for such acts, providing due dill
gence is used TO keep the peace and pre-
serve the lives of sojournng foreigners. the
Department of State succeeded in Impress
ing the Mexican government with the be-
lief that the claim of the widow was just
and equitable one, although the amount Of
the allowance will probably be reduced
from the $1OO. 600 originally claimed TO one
fourth OF the amount.
