The balance of $62,71S.76 includes the
interest and sinking fund account of
$2S, 997.59, which can be used for only
the purpose indicated and which leaves
balance of but $34 ,92l.17 available for
general purposes. Out of the latter

mentioned in the city treasurer's letter
as having been paid out since July /
for school warrants issued prior to that
date. Secretary Fellows, who is in
camp with the Thirteenth regiment at
Mount Gretna, left behind him a letter
addressed to President Jennings, stat
ing that warrants amounting to SIS 1885,
10 had been authorized by the board
but had not been issued from the Sec
retarys office. In addition to these
sums, bills due before July 1 and
amounting to about $500 were ap-
proved by the board last night.
Adding the SIG, ,9S1.22, $1S,2SS.10 and
81, 800 mentioned in the foregoing,
shows $37, 9.32 as an Indebtedness for
which there is but S34,32l.17 available
and which leaves a deficit of $2,74S.15
in the school treasury.
REPORT REFERRED.
The report and the boards financial
condition We're referred to the finance
committee with instructions to report
at the next meeting.
There was also referred to the COM
mittee a number of bills for large
amounts, some of which were to be paid
out of the 1S96-97 appropriations and
some of which were, by agreement not
to be paid until after July l. These
latter included bills of E. S. Williams,
Architect Davis, the Hunt & Connell
company and John Benore & Sons for
considerable sums for contract and es-
Inmates on new Nos. 20, Is and 26 school
buildings.
When Mr.. Langan read a list of bills
approved by the high and training
school committees, Mr.. Williams called
the boards attention to the expense
incurred for decorations for the High
school graduation exercises and urged
that this item be done away with in
future.
The high and training school COM
mittees asked for Instructions regard
ing the expense which would be in
volved in establishing the commercial
course at the High school. Mr.. Langan
reported that quite a large sum might
have to be expended for the cabinet
work and furniture necessary to the
course. After some discussion it was
decided, on motion of Mr. Gibbons, to
postpone until later in the year any
definite recommendations to the COM
mittee.
President Jennings remarked during
discussion of further improvements
to the grounds Of Nos. 10 and 23
schools that he would refuse to sign
any warrants, no matter how small
the sum involved. if there were no
available funds to meet them.

ware, even when fully loaded, is not
awash, nor is her deck unprotected, as
is the case with many barges. She has
four strong iron rails above the sides
of her hull, and if the cyclist takes a
header seward he is sure to stop at
these guards. Moreover, a header ex-
cites no sarcastic remarks, as the crew
is well trained, and when they feel fun

RIDES AT SEA.
Captain OF a Coal Barge Has a
Novel Track.

Captain Of Coal Barge Has a
Novel Track.
Capt. George Howe, of the good coal
barge Delaware, plying between New
England and Southern coal ports, is a
lover of the bicycle, but as much of
his time is spent in sailing over the
bounding deep he has but little oppor-
tunity to push along the steady ground
he finds ashore. But Captain Howe,
says the Buffalo Courier, is man who
adapts himself to circumstances. He
commands one of the largest barges
afioat. The Delaware was formerly the
Spanish ship Murciano. She was de-
signed for an ocean greyhound, and her
fine lines are indicative of speedy
model. She was used both as a passen-
ger and freight steamer up to the time
she went ashore near Chesapeake Bay.
1t cost so much to float the steamer
after her miShap, that her owners
abandoned her, and she was sold for a
song and converted into a coal barge.
The barge is 800 feet long, with a
good breadth of beam, and so Captain
Howe has at his disposal a 600-foot
cycle track, and he uses it. Captain
Howe never collides with any other
wheelman on it; no bad person ever
sprinkles tacks there, and no bull dog
ever reaches for the captains trousers
as he spins along on the Atlantic ocean.
From the rising bow of the Delaware
is a coast that carries the wheel way to
the stern, and to get back to the other
tack is easy There would be an oc-
