Should be Punished.

! The extraordinary conduct of Samuel
Click, baker by occupation, residing ut
No. 402 West Front street, yesterday after
noon. in public school No. 8, should DO
explained by him before Judge Ball Mr..
Click or no other citizen has right to
walk into any Of the public schools and
threaten bodily harm to the teacher.
Clicks threatening actions frightened the
teachers and scholars nearly out of their
wits The committee of that school owe
1t to this parents Of the children to see that
Click is prosecuted for his rpwdy conduct
Tie man has made things very unpleasant
on more than one occasion for the teachers
and he should be taught that he cannot
walk boldly into the schools and use
THREATENING language to any one. He has
committed breach Of the peace, for which
he should be punished and probably 1t will
help to cool his anger the next time things
fhil to 60 as he thinks they should II he
don't want his children to observe the
rules governing the schools, he can keep
them at home. His excitablc condition
gave the children big scare which savorcd
o. panic at one time.

What thew Saw

Tho resignation Of Mr.. Thomas Lewis
on Tuesday evening as Superintendent Of
streets, and the promotion Of Col Francis
McCloskeyto I'LL the vacancy has caused
considerable talk.
Mr.. Frank Stidham believes that to tho
ylctors belongs the giving out of the Off
ces. He thinks that men should be select.
ed TO fill the Offices who are in sympathy
with those at its head
l believe In a clean sweep OF all Demo.
Gratis in the Federal employ and not in
civil service by any means
Mr.. Harry G, Robinson said; "Well,
the Street and Sewer Commissioners have
begun the acknowledgements already. sIt is
not right If the department Is to be con.
Quoted on non.partisan basis That was
not the understanding when it was created
1t is too bad that good men should be re-
moved to make way for party workers.
Numerous other we'll known Republicans
who expressed for and against cleaning
out the department did not wish their
names to appear in print
Out OF eight employees in the office six
OF them are said to be Republicans. II we
are mistaken we will gladly make cor

The report of the Maryland and Della.
ware section of the climate and crop ser.
vice for the week ending April 10, is az
follows;
The temperature of the past seven DAYS
in the Maryland and Delaware climate
and crop section varied but little from the
formal while the rainfall was appreciably
In excess of tie normal, in all portions IL
the section.
Light, heavy, and killing frosts occurred
IN western Maryland, but no crops were
sufficiently advanced to be injured. Fall
wheat rye clover and all grasses are in
the best possible condition as to stands and
growth Rains retarded blowing and
seeding of oat fields and gardens, but the
delay is not at all serious, and the outlook
from an agricultural standpoint Is de-.
c!dedly good.
Rains, though in excess, in eastern
Mary land and Delaware interfered with
farming operations to less marked ex-
tent than elsewhere In the section, at the
same time proving of great benefit in re.
vlVing grain and grasses. Flowing Is be.
ing pushed in spite of wet weather. Con.
siderable gardening has been done, and
much corn ground is ready for planting
Peach and apricot trees are coming lit
fun bloom, Wheat and clover looking
inc, and meadows and pastures growing
nicely. Strawberry plants recently nut
out have been benefited by the rains
Peas have improved. Largo orops Of
Watermelons are being planted. No frosts
