which it hangs is of the same shade of
green az the first circle. The butterflies
are made Of prettily contrasting pieces
Of velvet and silk neatly pasted in place
and the edges caught down and the
markings made with embroidery silk.
The backs Of the circular pieces are
covered with sateen of the same shade
Of green as is used for the first circular
piece and the ribbon. The pieces are
connected with each other by strong,
small stitches SO an to make little
pocket into which the letters are slipped.
Made in this way, this holder is ex-
tremely pretty, and If one has the scraps
of silk, etc., in the house it costs COM
paratively nothing. but il can also be
made Of cardboard and tissue paper and
still present very effective appearance.
The circles should be covered with
different colors Of the crinkled or crepe
paper, and the butterflies made Of the
smooth enamel paper or Of linen writ
ing paper tinted with water colors.
When made in this way, the fastening
Of the circles one to another can be done
with patent fasteners, or the lower edge
Of each can be glued to the one above
1t, and the right side where the outer
edge Of one circle touches the other can
be held with small bows of ribbon.
The Standard Designer, which orig
inally described and illustrated this lit
tie device, further says that when it is
made Of the tissue paper pretty effect
can be obtained by making the holder
Of ono color throughout, but each circle
Of q different shade, the lowest one the
deepest and gradually tightening toward
the ton.

mess Transacted

Only five members of the board of ed
ucation attended the adjourned business
session Of that body. which was held just
before last nights meeting of investiga-
ton began. They were Messrs. Conrey.
Davis, McInerny. Mathis and Poor.
The most important matter which was
considered was the resignation of c. H.
Axtell as superintendent of buildings and
janitors. This was presented by Mr.
Davis. 1t was to take effect at such
promptly put and carried accepting the
resignation, and Axtell was out Of job.
Mr.. Poor's motion that Axtell's assistant,
Mr.. Charlton, act in his stead for the
present was adopted.
A communication from the Classical
Teachers of Southern California was
read. 1t asked that the association be al
lowed the use Of the high school in which
to hold its annual meeting on January
18th. The communication was placed on
file.
The report of the teachers committee,
containing the following recommended
tions, was adopted: That the reslgna-
ton of Gertrude Wheeler be accepted; !;
that the application of Helen Vineyard
for leave of absence until May %, 1898,
he granted, and that the applications of
Mary Z. Foy and Adah Richmond for
extension of their respective leaves OF
absence to June so, 1898. be granted.
The monthly report of Assistant
School Superintendent Ennis for Decem-
Der was filed. but action on 1t was de-
ferred until the next regular meeting.
The finance committee reported ap-
proving bills and claims against the
county fund to the amount of $725.2S and
against the city fund for s129.01. total
of $S54.24 AS there were but five men,
bers present this matter was not acted
upon until the first Of the session In the
council chamber, when the report was
adopted.
Before the board of education allows
the claim of Messrs. Bagley & Sexton.
the stenographers who have been taking
the evidence at the investigation, the
opinion Of the city attorney will be Sc
cured. Some Of the members of the
board are in doubt as to their authority
to expend nearly $500 of the money of the
department for such a purpose. They
desire first to secure legal advice on the
subject. There is no doubt as to the pay
ment of the bill, but it has not been de-
cided out of which fund it must be paid.
The herald., 1897-12-29

think he made It. BY consulting the rec
ords 1t was shown that Webb had on
February 8th made motion that two
members OF each committee be required
to sign reQuisitions for their commit
tees. This seemed to be in Webb's ia
vor. but the prosecution promised to es-
tablish the fact that webb failed to live
UP to his own rule.
The secretary could not remember any
matter of Importance in which there had
been a division Of six to three in the
board, and Director Davis prepared a
list of such matters on which the prose-
cution questioned the witness. The rec
ords showed that upon all of the mat
ters mentioned by Mr.. Davis there had
been such a division and proved that
there had been such a combination as
the solid six. Among the matters In
which there was such a division We're
the election Of secretary, the elec-
ton of Professors Rainey and
Ready. the vote against the proposed
adoption of civil service rules in the de-
partment presented by Mr.. Davis, the
vote on the adoption of a system Of con-
tracts in which 1t would be necessary
to advertise for goods purchased in lots
OF $50 or more, and the adoption Of a
text book on American literature. In
all of these matters the "solid six' or
five of them stood together and defeated
matters which would manifestly have
been for the benefit of the schools.
The attorneys for the defense de-
manded that Secretary Johnson prepare
q list of the questions that had been
voted on by the board in which the vote
stood seven to two instead of six to
three. This caused considerable discus
sion and the attorneys for the defense
decided that they would have the work
done.
AT the conclusion of the session Mr..
Meserve served notice that he desired
all the new teachers elected in June to be
summoned before the investigation.
either five each evening, ten, or all Of
them in one evening. The secretary was
instructed to prepare the summonses.
The board then adjourned until this
evening at 1880 o'clock.
At the close of the session Attorney
Meserve stated that the defense would
close it's case probably by January 5th
He has number of witnesses on his list
who will testify as to some of the state
ments made by Webb in corroboration
of his testimony, and will deny what
some Of the witnesses on the other side
have sworn to.
