School Row in Dublin, Ind.

Dublin, Ind, June 4.-Dublin has
two school boards and in a few days
will have two full corps of teachers.
This remarkable state of affairs was
brought about by the circulation OF a
petition among high school students
asking the school board not to re-en-
gage Prof. Paul Coughlin as principal
for next year. The city council re-
moved James Hammond, president Of
the school board, and elected a new
member. Hammond refused to quit
and said he would contest his rights by
law. Then with one member Of the
board he elected the entire faculty for
the coming year. When the place of
another member of the board who re-
tires is filled the anti-Hammond por-
ton of the board will elect another set
OF teachers.

Mr.. Perkins Presents a Petition Asking
Relief.

opening Of the session of the senate
today Mr.. Perkins (CalD presented a
petition from organizations and indi-
viduals of his state, asking congress
to make an appropriation for the re-
lief of the furnishing people of India
and he asked that it be referred to the
committee on appropriations. He was
not, he said, in possession of sufficient
information to enable him to prepare
a proper resolution dealing with the
question.
In 1897 he had asked for and procur-
ed ship to carry to India provisions
donated by the people of California,
Oregon, Washington, Nebraska, Kan
sas and Iowa. The provisions aggre-
gated 1000 tons. no official aCk-
nowledgment ever had been received
OF that donation so far as he was
aware. He hesitated now, therefore,
to press a resolution looking to the
relief Of the people OF India, lest the
government of Great Britain might
not look with favor upon the action
OF congress in sending TO India unso-
licited aims, as it had not looked with
favor on friendly intervention by
this government in the South African
war
The resolution brought from Mr..
Hale (Me) a bitter attack on Great
Britain. He demanded to know what
England had been doing for her starry
ing millions in India, while she was
pouring out unlimited Treasure to
crush two republics in Africa.
M. Perkins said he did not wish 10
debate that question, but he did wish
q careful committee report on the
memorial. 1t was sent to the commit
tee on appropriations.
