BOARD OF EDUCATION CHANGES.
NO ONE SEEMS ABLE TO PREDICT WHAT
WILL BE DONE AT THE AN
MAI. MEETING.

An air of quiet, through which feeling OF ex-
pectancy may be noted pervades the halls and
rooms of the Board OF Education Building, N l<iV-
ingston-st. The work of the schools Is practically
ended but the work of compiling the monthly and
annual reports cannot well be finished until after
the close Of the school year, next Tuesday. All
through the vacation the officials Of the Board VIII

which will be held on July I. At that meeting the
newly appointed members will take their seats. SO
far there is not the slightest intmation to whom
the Mayor will appoint, though, according 10 law,
he must file the appointments before July ]. At
the annual meeting the following officers arc to be
elected: President vce-presdent. assistant secre
tary superintendent and assistant superintendent
of buildings and chief engineer. The present in
cumbents are j. Edward Swanstrom, John Harri-
gan, j. s Tully James W. Naughton Frank A.
Regain and W. F. Cunningham. Mr. Swanstrom has
rerved as presiding officer for two years. but far
as could be ascertaned there is nothing to indl-
cate what the probable acton OF the Board will
be with reference to him to Mr. Harligan. For
a few days there have been whisperings to the
effect that the veteran superintendent Of buildings,
Mr.. Naughton was to be retired In favor of a
younger man. The only reason given for this
ton that he not in good health and might
be incapactated at any moment. His friends reply
that, though ne has not been in good health for
few months. he has neglected no duties. and Is now
apparently the road to recovery.
