dissatisfied with the result Of their inyesti ga

superintendent Schaetler The committee S
report was "a lengthy one and gave, among
other matters coming to their knowledge, the
motives animatng the parties pursuing the
Superintcndeut which have very material
bearing upon the case matters upon which
the detective sent by the protestants TO
investigate, was silent, or at least no state
ment was presented showing that he had
reported upon the motives The committee
found that five members Of the School
Board denied that the resignation had
been called for, that the childs numerous
stories were lhdIeliallS NlioiNh' N'''' WAN

whose son had been expelled from school by
the Superintendent, and that the parent
making the aihdavits had no knowledge o
the case except what they had been told
This report apparently was not such as wa
expected aud in order that there shall be n
room for any doubt whatever the Board ha
decided to have the matter investigated itself
although 6members of theBoard voted agains
doing so, being satisfied the charges are un
founded. However, the superintendent should
like Cesars wife, be above suspicion and tn

COLLISIONS between bicycles and pedcs-
trians arc becoming much more frequent
than agreeable and as bicycles and riders are
on the constant increase, it is clearly ap-
parent that better protection should LIE
afforded pedestrians than is now youchsaied
them. The tiny bells on the bikes cannot
be heard at a distance Of fifty feet SO that q
pedestrian does not get warning in time 10
always escape a collision 1t is noticeable
that great many of the Wheeimcn appear to
think that all that is necessary Oh their part
is to sound their alarm bell, and that those in
front arc bound to get out Of the way or take
the consequences. This state Of things
should be changed. Pedestrians have rights
as wei as hicyolcgs, ana they should be pro
tectad IN them.

NAPOLEON A PENSIONER.
He Fought for Uncle Sam, and Is on
the Roll. =.

Baltimore, Md, Sept. 16.-The number ol
persons living in the present generation that
bear the names of men famous in the coun
try many years ago is remarkable. Yester
day a man, who draws government pen
sion, went to the united States subtreasury
and presented his quarterly draft for pay
ment.
Paying Teller Goodrich looked at the
name on the draft, then at the man stand
ing outside the window, aud for moment
seemed as though staring into space. II
might have been impossible just at that
time for him to tell positively whether or
not the world had suddenly collapsed aud
there had been a resurrection without him
knowing anything about it. The draft was
made payable to Napoleon Bonaparte in d
plain, legible hand.
''Is that your name?' Mr.. Goodrich po
liteiy asked the man at the window wait
ing for the money the draft called for, ant
the man modestly replied that it was. The
question was only the product OF ordinary
curiosity, as the draft bore sufficient proo
OF the mans identity.
Several days ago another pensioner hat
his draft paid, and it bore the name Of
George Washington. The fact that the
payment OF pensions will continue yet fo
fully a week makes it possible for Abra
ham Lincoln's uame to get in this list

CHARL ES REILLY A SENATOR.
VIII Play Third Next Year Until
Smith Joins the Club.

Next season Harvey Smith will rot be
able tn join the Senators before the 10th
OF May, on account OF his college studies
Notwithstanding the fact that Wr1g!ey Is
an available man for the position, Earl WaS-
ner Will not start 1897 handicapped for
players. He has signed Charles Reilly, a
veteran at third base.
REILLY was for several years with the
Fhiiadelphia club, but his services with the
Qudkers were mostly bench warming. Last
year he was reiea sed TO Syracuse. and acted
IA IS manager Tor several months, when some
trouble arose and he was released. He
then went To Springfield and played there
during Iii ibert's sickness.
The day after Smith was signed Mr.
Wagner received a telegram from Reilly
announcing that he was at liberty to sign.
Had not Smith been secured, Reilly woull
have been signed.
Reilly is u splendid fielder and had a bat
ting average Ot .267. He is a gentle:nl lniy
baDpla yer, and he will be a good man to
plug up third in Smiths absence.

from Washington about the formation of
a syndicate which is to offer $1,000

In order that this many-sidcd rumor ma Y

interests in the New York Club are SO pecu-
