Maria Quinn of No. % Corbin avenue.
She showed marks of an undoubted as
sauft.
She said that about two o'clock two
men, with a Photographic outfit, called
at her home and solicited an order for
some pictures. She told the men that
she wanted no pictures taken Mrs.
Quinn stated that one of the men assaults
ed her when she started to shut the door
after having told the men that no pic
lures were wanted. She was cut on the
arm and head. The wounds she washed
in the rear of the station house.
An alarm was sent out through the pre-
cinct, and patrolmen were looking for the
assailants. Sergeans Wade while stand
ing on Summit avenue, near vroom

camera, coming out of small candy

TARTAR is A BRITISH SHIP
Transport Detained at Hong Kong

WASHINGTON. Sept. 1s, 1Sse.-A cable
message was received today at the War
Department concerning the transport Tar
tar. which has been held at Hong Kong.
Secretary Root thought 1t was of suffl-
cient importance to take to the Pres1-
dent for consideration. The dispatch has
not been made public.
The army transport Tartar. which is re-
ported detained at Hong Kong by the
british authorities, was chartered by the
United States and is owned by the Cam
adam Pacific Steamship Company. She
sails under the British flag 1t is said
that under those conditions she is sub
iect to the British navigation laws. as
being chartered by the United States does
not entitle her to American registry. The
British consul can determine whether she
complies with the British navigation
laws and if she does not he has authority
to cause her to unload.
The Ouartermaster's Department does
not know why the Tartar went to Hong
Wong hut ii is supposed that 1t was for
the purpose of docking her. The Tartar
sailed from San Francisco July "a She
carried 1,221 men. 1t is stated at the
War Department that she was under the
suDaryision of the Board of Health at
san Francisco and that she would not
have been allowed to sail from that port

tions When she arrived at Manila Gem

WALL NEEDS POINTING.
School No 81 is Badly In Need of
Repairs.

The rear and side walls of School NO. IL
on Twelfth street, are badly in need OF
pointing up. The walls referred to have
not been attended to since 1879 The
front of the building has received but
two coats of paint in that period. There
is no danger of the school eollapsing IN
its present condition.
Had the walls received several coats
of paint when it was erected, SAID a
prominent builder yesterday, the present
trouble would not exist. The mortar be-
tween the bricks has dried up and IS
rapidly crumbling away. At places the
space is quite large enough for two
fingers to be placed in it. What is abso-
Qutely necessary is that all the spaces be
pointed ana then coat Of thick paint
put on. This would prevent the mortar
which has remained intact from falling
out. which it will certainly do If not at
tended to Immediately. The cost OF the
work required would amount to less tnan
500 which the Board can easily afford.
ssThe damage which will certainly re,
suit from delaying the work longer VIII
amount to considerable more than that
sum. The rain Will wash into the cracks
and soak through the plaster walls oI
the school rooms The plaster after
few soakinss will drop from the lathes
and then quite an expenditure will have
to be made to cover the costs !.

PROP|T|OUS OPENING.
Some Schools Slightly
Crowded, But No Pupils
Refused Admission.


There is one good thing this year about
the opening of school--nobody has been
refused admission, even in the primary
departments. unless not eligible. Schools
Nos. l and 8 are probably as crowded as
any in the city, hut both have managed
nicely to accommodate all pupils
In No. / primary about 1856 new pupils
have been accommodated. and in the
annex about 70, making 21O in all, while
thus far there is but one grade the
eighth. or very lowest where morning
and afternoon classes are held, and here
the pupils are almost too small to stand
the fun five hours schooling.
There is but one change in the teaching
faculty. The appointment of Miss Grace
Hill to fill the vacancy of Miss Christie,
who married during the summer.
In School No. there are twenty-eight
new entries in the grammar department,
making a total of 377 pupils, $40 Of whom
were present this morning. Here also
there is but little crowding though about
one hundred new pupils have been regis,
tered in the primary, every eligible pupil
having been accepted. There are two
grades in this school, which must hold
morning and afternoon classes to accom-
modate the crowd.
Altogether it has ben a most SAUSAGE
tory school opening and principals ana
teachers express themselves as pleased

resignation. while the principals and
teachers have their hands full preparing
reports for the Board meeting tomorrow
evening.
The usual crowded condition of affairs
exists at the High School where there
are at present registered about seven

swelling the number by fifty.
