THE noARD OF Epuo ArroN.
Removal of the Commercial Departmen Again Discussed,

Again Discussed,
 The regular meeting of the board of education was held last evening, IIli Whitney, jr., presiding in the ab- sence of President Avis. Thomas EIoolzer and Walter J. Connor were also absent from the meeting.
 The committee on special construc- tior introduced several recommends tions, which aroused considerable dis 6ussion. The first was the proposition that the Carter house on York square which Is the house nearest to the Board man Manual Training High school, should be fitted up fin a manner suitable for the reception of the commercial de- partment of the high school, and that that department hereafter be connected with the Boardman school. MT. Whit ney stated that there was no particular objection to the matter from MT Thomas, principal of the Hillhouse High school, and that it seemed to be the most desirable manner of dealing with the commercial department. It was further stated that it would cost about $1, 300 to fit it up in suitable shape for the reception of the department. Mir. Betts did not think that it would pay to fit up the house, which. he said, was not in good condition. MT. Asher thought the board should find out more about the details connected with the re- movaI MT Whitney said the board would not concern themselves with the details, but would leave the teachers them to work them out,
 Tn the discussion 1t was stated that fhe total expenses of the Boardman sohool when it should be in full run ming order, would be $40,000 per year as against $3o,00O for the Hillhouse High school, and that the Boardman school would be by far the most expen- siye school ever established in this school district. It was further stated that Principal Mather would need eleven new teachers next year. and Principal Thomas one new teacher. After some more discussion the recom- mendation of the committee on special Instruction was laid on the table, and the buildinG committee WaVs Anstrlcteda5

to look over the Carter building and get estimates for fitting 1t up for the re- ception of the commercial department.
 Another recommendation was then read that the athletic associations of the high schools be allowed to hold meetings in the high school buildings, teacher always to preside. MT. Betts opposed this, but it was passed. The superintendent and the committee on special instruction were given power to engage a drawing teacher in the high school and an assistant in drawing in the Boardman school, who shall also understand clay moulding.
 The name of Mrs Alice D. Porter was proposed upon the recommendation of Prof. Albert s. Cook of the English department, Yale college, as aAdesirable candidate for the position of teacher of English in the high school. It was stated that she could be secured for $1,200 per year.
 The bids for the George street school were reported awarded as follows: John Hogan, mason work, $23, ,772; David II. Clark, carpenter work, $17,797; Rourke Bros, heating and ventilating, $5,907; plumbing and gas fitting, D. W. Kel- ly. $S,26S.
