APPOINTMENTS IN MAY.

Teachers Will be Appointed by Super
 intendent Kendall.
 Superintendent Kendall of the city schools will this year appoint teachers for the schools in May. Heretofore these appointments have been made in June by the board of education, but the power of appointment is vested in the superintendent by the new city charter. The new rules of the board of education provide that these ap- pointments shall be made on or before May 30. This change in time has been made for two reasons. One is that if any appointee declines appointment more time will be given to fill the va cancy ahan if the appointments were not made until June. Another reason is that sometimes teachers are uneasy about their positions, and if they are not reappointed they have a longer time in which to find other positions if the announcement of appointments is made in May.

Tom Karl, Assisted By Various Ar
 lists.

Tom haIl, Assisted By NarlouS Ar
 lists.
 The recital given at Harmonic hall last evening was attended by a large and fashionable audience. Tom Karl, the well known tenor, and D. A. Par sons were the prime movers in the af- fair. They had summoned for assist ance in their programme particularly interesting and capable list of perform CTS. Mrs. Ida Feutchwanger Asher, who was to have effected her entree last evening, was too i'll to appear. Mrs. fishers singing would have been one of the most interesting features of the programme. She is we'll remembered for the beautiful quality of her voice and her splendid musical temperament. Her inability to sing last night was a great disappointment. Miss Bucklin, the violinist, who was heard here for the first time last night, was much en- joyed. The other performers were Miss Clara Asher, a pupil of MT. Parsons, and Miss Williams and R. A. H. Clarke, who served in the capacity of accom- panists.
 hl. IAoA1 lo oIlll eb dCllSlLluA He is singing much better now than a few years ago, when he retired from .The Bostonians." In these days bari tone-tenors it seems good to hear a real tenor again and Tom Karl had that rare lyric quality which never fails to thrill an audience. As a singer of ball. lads he is a great artist and he fur nished a most entertaining pro- gramme last evening.
 Miss Bucklin played the "Adagio" and "Moto Perpetuo" from the Ries suite and the Bach air for the c string and Moszkowski's "Guitarre." She dis played musical intelligence of a high or der and a good broad tone. MT. Par sons played sympathetic accompani- ment.
 Miss Asher, MT. Parsons pupil, play ed a Liszt rhapsody and two smaller pieces in a very creditable manner

STATE REFORM SCHOOL SUPER
 INTENDENT

The Meriden Journal says that new superintendent of the state school for boys will soon be appointed, but that the trustees have not decided who the appointee will be, but it is a settled fact that one of the many candidates will be selected to take the place of the present acting. superintendent.
 One of the trustees stated that the special committee appointed from the board to look into this matter had no man yet selected and until they had no action would be taken. When they are ready to recommend a new super intendent special meeting of the full board of trustees will probably be call ed to take action.

A BABoo ON THE ENGLISH.

The latest lucubration by a Baboo is the booklet London and Paris Through Indian Spectacles,' by G. P. Paul, B. A., of Madras. After the proper observa- tions on our streets our drink, our po- lite treatment of the native, and the virtues of the London policeman, the author comes to the great woman question, and, of course, in his own way. His visit to this country increas- ed his respect for women a hundred fold. In England you have to talk up to the woman; in India it is all talking down. But the privilege has it's em- barrassments for the native. His life long training in the idea of the se- clusion of the sex at first made MT.

NEW HAVEN BICYCLE UNION.
Officers for the Year to Be Electe

Officers for the Year to Be Elected
 Next Week.
 At the regular meeting of the New Haven Bicycle union, held several weeks ago, the election of officers for the year was deferred and it will be held the first of next week.
 One matter which will be taken up with much earnestness is that of as- sisting the public works department in keeping the streets of the city in good repair and free from rubbish. This work has been neglected for some time past and the streets are strewed with refuse of various kinds, which is very destructive to bicycle tires and causes many riders to be more or less serious ly injured. This refuse comes from the ash teams and the nuisance could be stopepd if the drivers of the wagons would be more careful

The boot and shoe makers will fit up Tuesday and all departments will be in operation Thursday A mo- tice to the above effect was pasted on the company's bulletin board last eve- ming.
 At the Wallace street entrance Su- perintendent c. G. Ames stated to a representative of the Journal and Courier last evening that 1t was utterly impossible to start the factory to-mor- TOW, owing to delays in completing the extensive Improvements and repairs which are nearing completion. These delays, although unavoidable, are as exasperating to the officers of the com pany as they undoubtedly are disap- pointing to the employees. However, work is being pushed energetically and when finished the company will be the owner of the largest and best equipped steam producing plant in all New Eng land Some of the operatives will no doubt be surprised when they enter the yard again to notice one of the old brick chimneys gone and the other in course of demolishment.
 However, the electric lights will be as brilliant as ever Tuesday, the smoke from the generators will rise from a gigantic and imposing iron stack, the rumble of the mill will be as familiar as ever and the rattle of the lasts will sound just as musical as before, a pleasant accompaniment to busy hands and work well done.
