In this issue appears letter from the
Superintendent Of Public Instruction of
New York, in which he says that women
are considered valuable members of
school boards in New York. "In fact"
he says, "many of our women commits
sioners rank higher than some of the
men who are holding the Office" Well
know neducators in different cities have,
through the columns of THE Sun, ex-
pressed the opinion that women are valu-
able as members of Boards of Education
These opinions have been based upon
facts and personal observation. No one
in this city has ever advanced the slight
est reason why woman should not be
placed upon the Board of Education in
this city. 1t is absolutely certain that
no reason of such character exists. There
are some women in Wilmington who
could render valuable service upon the
Board of Education. OF course all the
women Of this city are not as thoroughly
capable as all the members of the pres
ent Board, but there are xouc women
here who are the peers of some of the
members of the school board. Their in
tellectual and executive ability is just as
marked as many of the commissioners
now serving upon the Board. The
mothers represent an element which
must have representation upon the Board
of Education. Where is the magnani-
nous commissioner who will resign in
favor of some mother?

Newspaper Advertising Pays.

CLEVELAND, o., Oct. Manager
Hartz, of the Euclid Avenue Opera
House, believes he has demonstrated the
superiority of newspaper advertising
over all other forms. Last week he de-
cided to abandon all advertising by
means OF billboard posters or window
hangers, and to depend upon the news
papers entirely. Tie only posters shown
were those at the entrance to the theatre.
The result Of the experiment was graft
flying. Last night Julia MarIowe began a
weeks engagement, and the house was
sold out, it was said, before the perform
ance began. Mr.. Hartz decided to put up
no nc more posters.-Philadelphia E,en;ng

BIRMINGHAM RECRUITING OFFICE.
Can Offer Non-Commssioned Offices to Men
 Securing Squads of Volunteers.

The recruiting office of the First regiment in this city has been given the authority by Colonel Higdon to offer positions of corporals and sergeants in this regiment volunteers for enlistment.
 Ever since the officers have been here recruiting the First to Its maximum strength the fact that no non-commissloned offices could be promised to men securing squads of volunteers has been a great draw back. But now, that all of the Birmingham companies have been practically filled and Colonel Higdon realizes that Birmingha must also supply large number of men for other companies, he has forced such companies to offer some Inducements to get their companies recruited.
 Colonel Hgdon yesterday wired instruc- tions that the recruiting officers should return to Miami, few at d time, until all are gone but one, who will remain until the regiment is completely filled. This is welcome change to the captains, who, as much as they like Birmingham are very anxious to return to their commands
 No were sent to Miami yesterday for the Birmingham battalion. William Bond and Abe Craig were sent down for the Bessemer Rifles.
 Captain Kennedy went to Eutaw yester- day and in exchange for a few non-com- misisoned officers expects to get large number of recruits. Captain Parker and Private Hambright are at Huffman.
