4 Real HeIpmeet.

From the Bangor Commercial
The young physician was tired when he
returned from his evening calls, but as he
settled back in his easy chair, and his
pretty wife of only a month or two took a
seat beside him, he asked affectionately:
And has my little wife been lonely?''
"Oh, no. she said, animatsdIy; lat least
not very. I've found something to busy
myself With.
"1ndeed"' he said What is it?''
"Oh, I'm organizing a class lot OF
young girls and married women are in it,
and We are exchanging experiences and
teaching each other how 20 cook"
What do you do with the things you
COOKE" he asked, interestedly.
"Oh, we send them to the neghbors lust
to show what we can do There's one lodg.
ing house gets most of it. It's great fun,''
Dear little woman he said, leaning
over and kissing her. always thoughtful

ored members of the school board, speak
irg of last nights meeting, said to Star
reporter:
Il don't see anything I can say, except
that there is not a word of truth in the
charges that were made at the meeting
last evening. So far as can see, the whole
motive and animus fer the charges lie in
the fact that the prime movers in the mat
ter last evening want to have US fired from
the school board, and some of their own
members put in instead.
All the graduates from the colored
SCHOOLS desire to become teachers. AS we
can appoint Only twenty each year, there
are a great many who are dissatisfied and
believe that discrimination has been made
against them. This agitation clearly proves
that we need different kind of education
for 80 per cent of the colored people of the
District of Columbia. 1 believe that if
more attention were paid to industrial
work and a special school for industrial
training We're started it would enable the
vast majority of these pupils to be edu-
Gated so that they could obtain work, in
stead Of all sitting around and trying to
be teachers and lawyers and doctors.
IF such a school were established 1t
would take the place for the colored pupils
that the Business High School fills for the
white pupils, and fully 70 per cent, If not
more, of all the colored high school pupils
would elect the industrial course, realiZ-
ing that thereby they would be fitting
themselves with the wherewithal to earn
an honest living through the medium of
skilled labor"
Ex-senator Bruce's Remarks.
Ex-senator Blanche K. Bruce, who is
also member of the board of school
trustees, when called upon by Star re-
porter, said:
Il have read the published proceedings
of the mass meeting held last night and
find nothing therein calling for special
notice from me.
THE trustees of the public schools hold
their appointments from the Commission
ers of the District. They are well known
to the community and were selected on ac-
count of their fitness for the places they
hold. They receive no reward for their
services beyond the satisfaction found in
the knowledge of having faithfully dis
charged public duty. They have COM
mitted no offense and feel that they need
no defense. Their official proceedings are
open and above board, and they welcome
Intelligent suggestion and even criticism

ihey Resent the Charge of Favorft-
ism in the schools.
MI. l.. A. Cornish one of the colored
scnooi trustees, was visited by a Star re-
porter today. Mr.. Cornish Is employed in
the sixth auditors office, and it would be
diHlcuit for one stranger to him to tell he
was colored man. He has blue eyes,
graylsh brown hair and a light, thin beard,
almost silky in texture. q
MI. cornish said he felt sorry for men
VINO would make charges of favoritism in
the public schools, either In the selection of
teachers or the treatment OF, pupils.
40 not care to dignity their assertions
py declaring them to be false" said Mr.
CORNISH. lf You would talk with the black
teachers who are employed In the public
scnools OF the District you would find that
there was no grounds for all these mis-
statements.
The system CT selecting teachers" con-
tinued Mr.. Cornish, prevents the exercise
of favoritism.
The teachers are chosen from among the
graduates of the Normal School. A pupil
passes through the graded schools and en-
tiers the High School. Each year there is an
examination of High School students who
want 10 enter the Normal School, and those
who pass the highest are admitted The
system does not permit of favoritism, and if
there are more light colored pupils who pass
nrst-class examinations than there are dark
colored the trustees and teachers cannot be
blamed for it."

A PECULIAR ASSIGNMENT.
Fat Kelly Assigns to Facilitate Settle
ment in Case He Dies.

Pat Kelly Assigns to Facilitate Settle
ment in Case He Dies.
ST.. PAUL, Mimi, March fitzpatrick
Fl. Kelly, a well known Democratic
politician and leading merchant, has
filed an assignment for the benefit of
his creditors to John E. Meagher of
Mankato, Mimi, who will qualify in
a bond for the amount of $500, 600,
which gives some idea of the size of
the failure.
The assignment is a peculiar one,
according to the story of Mr.. Kelly s
attorney, which is that there is no
need of any failure, so far as fiancial
difficulties are concerned, but the as
signment has been made in order to
close up the estate the more easily in
ease Mr.. Kelly should not recover
from the severe attack of pneumonia
with which he has been confined to his
rooms at the Merchants hotel for
some days.
1t is further stated that the P. Fl.
Kelly Mercantile Company will assign
to w. B. Jordan, of Miles City, for the
same reasons that caused the assign
ment of Mr.. Kelly. The mercantile
company is rated at $500, 900, and it's
credit is the highest. The business
will go on as usual and will in no way
be interfered with by the assignment.
