The herald., 1898-06-14

Conrey and Davis voting no. Immediately
thereafter the board went into executive
session, on motion Of Conrey, and 1t re-
manned invisible and retrenched in the in
nermost recesses of the assistant superin-
tendent's sanctum from $3.50 till lilo, while
the lobby wondered why the executive
mania had again so vigorously overcome
the board of education.
In the meantime few teachers, who had
previously been seated in the body of the
hall. with considerable gall and inqu!sitive-
ness commenced hopping around the pres
ident's desk, where S!oyd teacher present.
ly discovered the report of the committee
on teachers announcing next years APP
pointments. That was great find for them
and the way they pecked at 1t. like startled
marauding sparrows was amusing to be-
hold. Every noise from the secretary s
room made them jump back in a timorous
way for fear of being detected by their mas
tiers inside but 1t only took moment be-
fore their nerves steadied and their nerve
came back, and again they fluttered up
against the report. Finally they had seen
what they wanted and each enc of those
who had been indiscreet enough to peer into
papers with which they had no concern
picked up his hat and went off-things had
come his way probably.
At 11:10 the board was recalled to order by
the president. The motion was reconsid-
cred Increasing the salaries of the lowest
grade of teachers from 5000 to $640 per year,
and the original schedule adopted last
week remains undisturbed. The report of
the high school committee recommending
closing exercises to be held and that the
expenses be betrayed by the board was
adopted.
The board then proceeded to elect a SUI
perintendent of school buildings, the candl-
dates being Hogan and Kinney. The for
mer YVES elected by eight votes. c. A. Cha l.
ton was elected assistant superintendent
f. 8. Thomas was elected supply clerk,
Mr. Williams driver and G. l.. Ennis as
assistant superintendent of schools Miss
Kingsley was elected clerk to the super
intendent of schools.
Mr.. Webb voted on all these appoint
ments, but the board of education vii. hear
his resonant voice no more. Mr.. Webb has
| in fact resigned, the resignation taking ef-
| feet at the end of last nights meeting. He
was requested to hand it In at once and
upon proof being presented to him of his
unftness for the position he has held until
| now In the board, he had no alternative but
| to acquiesce. 1t came in the light of a
great surprise 10 the member Of the Seventh
| ward, who had no inklrg when the board
went into executive session that 1t was
prepared to jump him with both feet and
chuck him out into the cold world without
a recommend"
