No School Board Meeting Held

OEditor aERALD:-Dr. Turner having
stated this morning that he would not
prosecute his appeal. Mr.. Shelton and
myself: Through Mr.. .Burges.offeredt to
meet the other members of the school
board at o'clock.this afternoon for the
purpose of transacting any necessary
matters. This was refused for reason
that DR.. Races business engagement
prevented his attendance, notwith-
standing there would be quorum
without him. Anyone can see that
such a meeting would stand two to
two with quorum and that business
transacted must of necessity be har-
monious. Races friends prefer it
should stand three to two.

md that the courts

and that the courts will
| hold the instructions of the superin-
tendent and board Of education as the
law of the case and require school Of
fcials to look alone to their interpreta-
tions of the school laws and that their
findings, both of fact and law, must be
| accepted by all.
| The courts hold that all questions
affecting the schools or the school
| funds must be decided by the school
authorities.
A close inspection of the letter sd-
dressed to Race by the superintendent
on April Is, leads this court to believe
that the superintendent intended by
his letter to advise the school board
| that Charles T. Race was still presi-
dent of the board. It ia true that a
most liberal Interpretation Is necessary
to give it this construction, but from
all matters before him at the time ]
/ am convinced that such was his inten-
tion and that If his language was not
sufficiently clear the parties not salts
fed with his construction should have
called for q fuller aud more explicit
instruction or appealed to the board OF
education.
The court therefore modifies it's for
mer findings of law to the extent of
holding that the instruction OF the
superintendent of public instruction
has the force and effect of law and I'M
less appealed from is binding upon the
school board and under this letter
Chas. T. Race ia the present chairman
of the board and must be SO regarded
both by the board of trustees and this
court.
1t is therefore the judgment of this
court that writ of mAndamus issue as
prayed for directing the school trus-
tees to meet not later than May 80,
1899 and perform such duties as the
law enjoins upon them and then and
thereafter observe the order of this
court in matters herein directed until
the said board shall of its own selection
and election choose another chairman
or until his successor is elected and
qualified.
CORRECTION
It is reported today that the party
aulogized by Captain Beall yesterday
in his address to the court was not DR.. |
Race but G. r. Morehead. This cor
-ection is inserted for the benefit of |
Interested parties. The names of both |
we're mentioned so often by the speak |
,rs thatit was difficult to tell which |
vas referred to at the time.

After examining many authorities

On application of Charles T. Race 1

For the old-Fashion4d Coffee Was kin

For the Old-Fashionkd Coffee Was Killing.
II always drank coffee with the rest of
the family, for it seemed as If there was
nothing for breakfast if we did not have
1t on the table.
II had been troubled some time with nv
heart, which did not feel right. This
trouble grew worse steadily
Some times 1t would, beat fast and at
other times very slowly, so that I would
hardly be able to 7do work for an hour
or two after breakfast, and If 1 walked up
a hill, 1t gave me a severe pain
II had no idea of what the trouble was
unit! a friend suggested that perhaps it
might be caused by coffee drinking. I
tried leaving off the coffee and began
drinking Postum CereaieFood Coffee. The
change came quickly. am now glad to
say that I am entirelylwell of the heart
trouble and attribute the cure to leaving
off coffee and the use of Postum Cereal
Food Coffee.
"a number Of my friends have aban-
doned the old fashioned coffee and have
taken up with Postum, which they are us
ing steadily. There are some people that
make Postum very weak and tasteless.

Resolution for Extra Clerks for
Board of Public Works.

The resolution passed by the council
authorizing the employment of two addi-
tlonal clerks III the office of the board Of
public works has been returned by the
comptroller for amendment. The resoiu-
ton was passed in order to allow the hir-
Ing of two clerks to prepare abstracts for
the assessment for Phalen park. The
comptroller objects to the payment OF
the clerks out of the general fund and
has recommended that the expense be
paid out of the Phalen park fund.
The time in which the board of public
works has to complete the assessment for
the condemnation Of Phalen park expires
Nov. 10. 1t was found yesterday that the
law provides for a twenty days notice by
publication Of the proceedings and that
this notice must be given forthwith by
the board of public works as soon as the
order is received from the park board.
This order was not given until six
weeks after the order was received and
in order that there may be no mistake
or chance to bring the proceedings into
court on technicality the board will ask
for a new order from the board Of park
commissioners. In the meantime the alb
stracts are being prepared and will be
ready for use when the new order is re-
ceived
The city engineer submitted an estimate
showing the cost of grading Mt. Hope
street from Prescott to Page The i'm
provement will cost 1850, or $104 per

board took the matter under considera-
ton and will call in the property owners
who signed the petition asking for the
grading on the supposition that it would
cost only about 50 cents per front foot.

Joint Market Committee Again De-
fers It's Decision.

Inc SIX members of the special Joint
council committee on market sites held a.
session last evening, with Aid Shepard In
the chair. Short talks were made by G.
W. Horr, representing the Constans site:
george Benz, who favors a market built
over the bluff on Third street, between
FRANKLIN and Exchange and H S. Fair
child who advocates the selection Of the
site bounded by Eagle, Chestnut, Franklin
and Exchange streets
NO action was taken by the committee
except to direct the city engineer to nre-
pare plan, and estimate of cost on the
proposition submitted by Mr.. Benz. and
an adjournment was taken to Tuesday
afternoon at 4 o'clock
c. w. Horn, representing the Cons+ans
site, called attention to the benefits which
would follow the selection of this site
Inc tract was central and was cheap at
$4,000. 1t would be ready for a market
within week or so, and there would be
no litigation, as it was owned by one per-
son
George Benz dwelt at length on the adj
Visibility or having a platform built out
over the bluff on the south side Of Third
street, between Franklin and Exchange
streets. A retaining wall would allow a.
platform to be built, which would accom-
modate 300 teams, and the site would be
an ideal one, as it would accommodate
I1o COlllAllISSIon men, ana also Deneflt that
part Of the city.
H. S. Fairchild said year ago the coun-
ell committees held frequent meetings
and declared at that time it was neces-
sary to secure market site at once. He
at the time urged immediate action. and
now could do nothing more than reiterate
this suggestion. The public demanded
that action be taken, and 1t was the duty
OF the council to select some SITE and pro-
coed to condemn 1t under the law passed
at the last session of the legislature as
soor as possible. The site to be selected
should be on or near Third street, and If
the Eagle street site was chosen it would
benefit all adjacent property which could
not be said of any other site mentioned
On Eagle street the market would be
practically out Of the day, and yet in a
central location. 1t was impossible to
make market for each section of the
city without having half dozen sites.

A. G. GIOeser Doesn't Like Agent
MOak's Interference.
A. c. Gloeser, AZ West Randolph street,
Chicago, is making an effort to secure
the arrest of Humane Agent Moak on the
charge of kidnapping his son, Paul Gloes-
er, boy six years of age. Mrs. Gloeser
who is the stepmother of the boy, is in
the city. The father was formerly a res
ident of st. Paul, but recently removed
to Chicago, leaving his son with a fam
lily, at 497 Broadway, instructing\ them
to send him to his new home when he
became settled.
The father was notified early in the
week that his son had been enticed away
from the place where he was staying
and had not been seen since 1t after
wards appeared that the boy had been
taken in charge by Humane Agent Moak,
who found him in the street shabbify
clad and showing signs Of evident neg
lect. Application was made in probate
court, and on Monday the humane
agent was made the boys guardian. 1t
IS doubtful if the father can secure sat
isfaction, as the guardianship was regu-
larly made and the evidence in the case
seems to Justify Agent Moak.

matter of circulating the petitions in
charge. Quite a list has been returned
to the teachers, however, and there
seems to be no doubt that the required
number of signatures will be secured
within very few days, it,, indeed they
are not in by tonight. Some of the
schools, however, did not call for their
petitions until too late yesterday for the
circulation of the papers, SO that these
will be delayed longer in the return.
The total vote on which the number
Of names to be required for the petition
will be based was 1864, and 10 per cent
of this, 1865 votes, will be enough to
comply with the law and bring it prop

to pl ocure a general expression of the
