Consideration.


At o'clock this afternoon the Board of
Education will hold a special session,
called by President pro TEN. Clinton, to
reconsider and, perhaps, rescind the action
by the board several months ago in re-
questing that the Teachers Council be
formed.
AT that time the plan, which was pro-
posed by Director Murdoch, vas looked
upon as good one, and when the resolu-
ton mentioned was brought up at a regu-
lar meeting it was carried unanimously.
Having received the official sanction of
the board those who had originated the
scheme began work at once, and it re-
suited recently in an election OF officers
and a permanent organization.

satisfaction among certain circles of
teachers, and the murmurs have reached
the ears OF the members of the board.

such manner that very few will con
troll the council, and that if they choose
these few can bring its entire influence to
pear Tor their own aggrandizement

Mccarthy, an ex- barkeeper, ON the charge
OF assault to do grievous bodily harm, was
held before Judge Joachlmsen yesterday

either accidentally or by design knocked
over the ladder and the Chinese fell to the
sidewalk, striking on the back of his head
and fracturing mis- skull. His life was de-
SPARED of for some time, but he finally
recovered.

BROKE THE ENGAGEMENT,
Why Young Sam Price and
Sarah Mills Got Into
Litigation.
He Claims That After lifting Him
She Refused to Return $3.50
of His Money.

The reason why Sarah Mills broke her
engagement TO Sam Price did not develop
in the suit that was tried in Justice Car
rolls court yesterday, but the troubles
that resulted from the severed relations
did and they furnished amusement for a
large number of people who filled the
courtroom. 1t appeared that two days
before the time set for the wedding, when
even the invitations were out, Miss Mills
had suddenly broken off the match and
returned the engagement ring, pair of
earrings and $120 belonging to Price and
told him that their Acquaintance must
cease,
The young couple had even gone so far
as TO purchase the furniture that was to
grace their little fat, and Price was nat
urally grieved that the girl OF his heart
should suddenly throw him aside, par
