SCHOOL MELANGr.

The Pedagogue had the privilege on
Wednesday evening, OF the present
week, of attending the opening and re-
ception at the st. Marys parochial
school in the South Side. and was
shown through the entire building by
Father Mullen, To whose interchangeable
energy and perseverance is due the
magnificent building Just finished. The
building seems to be perfect through
out, which speaks well for the archl-
tees, MeSsrs, Franzhelm, Glesey &
Farls, It is a two-story building. In
the lower story are fous nice school
rooms and a music room, while the
second story is hall with seating ca
pacity of 500.
Al one end OF the hall is a stage with
all the modern appliances. The building
IS heated with steam, by both the di-
rect and Indirect method OF radiation,
One small furnace in the basement fur
nishes all the heat necessary for the
entire building A very fine programme
was rendered In the hall, which lasted
well on to the "wee smp' hours and II
was so rendered that the large audi
ence was well entertained from first to
last. While the entire programme was
good, the comedy prepared by Father
Mullen, "How to buifd asschool," was
greatly enjoyed. It Is no wonder that
our Catholic friends are proud of their
school building. for It Is furnished In
up-to-date style in all its apportlon-
ments, and good teachers, which no
doubt the school has. must make the
very best OF Its kind in the city. The
building is,also an ornament to the

All the teachers OF Richie school met
together in the office of the principal on
Wednesday of last week, at II o'clock
a. M. Superintendent Anderson was
present and the meeting was very
profitable one to all concerned. The
subject Of what to tesch In each year In
our schools was the subject discussed,
The work for the first and second years
was outlined on the blackboard, and
the Superintendent asked that the
teachers OF each year furnish the prin-
clpal with what she thought ought 60
be the work OF the pupils under her
charge, and the principal Is then to fur
nlsh the superintendent what he thinks
the work OF each year ought to be. In
this way he hopes 60 get our schools to
do the very best work that can be done.
Commission sohaub was present at the
meeting and he gave very interesting
talk to the teachers, urging good work
In all the departments OF the school. es-
pecially did he urge that the pupils In
the primary rooms are so instructed
that they have proper foundation on
which to build their after education.
Mr.. Schaub said one thing that all
teachers ought to take seriously to
heart. /. e., when n parent comes to him
with complaints. as they sometimes do,
he wishes to be In n position to stand
by the teacher. This means he wishes
the teacher to do such good work and
he wishes to know she does It, so that
ne can defend her under all circum-
stances. Mr.. Schaub takes a great in
terest in the schools and the teachers
ali know that he keeps himself posted
IN all the workings OF the school,

The writer received good long let

the circuit court OF Gllmer county, and
a former teacher in the state normal
school, located in the little city OF
Chenille. the county seat OF that coun-
ty. in which he speaks In the highest
terms OF the normal school. We are
surely glad to hear this and that Miss
Pearl Hose and Mr.. Scott, who are
both from Brooke county, are succeed
ing so well In the new field OF labor.
They are both, no doubt, worthy of all
the good that can be said in their fav-
or. There Is no reason why the Glen
vile normal school should not be one
OF the very best In the state, for It's
teachers are Just MS competent as those

others. while physically, they ore far

In order that the money NAV he trans
ierred 10 the municipal Golfers. and that
the CITY treasurer may have time to
prepare the pay roll, it is imDerative
that he be permitted to assume his
outles at once. The bond committee
met yesterday afternoon to. pass upon
the validity of the bonds and to see
tEat the provisions under which thew
were drawn. up were in accordance with
the requirements Of the bond ordinance.
Inc personal bond amounts to $500, 900,
the treasurer being required to qualify
IN double the amount Of the bond prop
er, which was for 5000, 600. The bonds
men are GregOr Mcneil, T, X. Grav

AFTER the reading of the provisions Of
Iilc JULIUS the committee went into eX-
ecutfVe session and spent the. entire
afternoon in consideration and discus
sion. The personal bond was satisfac-
tory enough to the members Of the COM
m1ttee, but the same cannot be said of
the surety bonds. Their were two pro-
visions in the latter bonds which will
probably have to be altered in order to
meet the approval of the committee. If
the companies will not agree to the
changes, it is not likely that the COM
m1ttee will recommend the acceptance
OF the bonds. In one of the obiectional
clauses there is provision in case the
treasurer dies whereby the city could
recover the $4,000 premium on the sure
ty bond. The premium is 81, AGO ger year

as the ~treasurer's death. to nuIlify the

company.

SO mat the bid made by Hall would
pe lower than the lowest bid received.
me Scheme was to allow Haney to
DID as low as $2.S5 per ton for coal.
ana all he secured above tina amount
was to be profit to him.
When asked to plead to the indict-
ment, A. H. Hall demurred at once,
ana stated that he would be ready to
argue a emurre at any time. The
court named Feb. %, the day before
the one set for trial of the prior case.

as possible" said Mr.HaIl, "and get
them out of the way. Now, how about

The cases come SO close together"
SAID Mr.. Peterson, that I will not ask
for any additional bond"
1T is hardly necessary" said Judge
Belden.
