WATERBURY, 10, NEW LONDON 8.

New London, July 1S.-The game be-
tween New London and Waterbury this
afternoon was lost by New London
through errors of Nyce and Lamar.
They had five of the six errors which
resulted in practically six of the ten
runs made by Waterbury. The feat
ure of the game was the work of Nor
ton of New London who with five times
at bat had four hits, run and four
put outs three of which were extreme
ly difficult. Weisbecker also played
clever game and after a hard run pull
ed a drive from Woodruff's bat that
was counted as being three-bagger.
In the next time at bat, however,
Woodruff was more fortunate and land
ed a clean three-b base hit. Score:

The three horses that yester y won

lowered his mark to 2:0S1s in the first
heat and clipped off another quarter of
a second in the final struggle.

The Board of Education in n Tangle
Over the Selection of Teachers
and Studies.
Special to the Register.
MAnTDNSBURG, w. Va, July 3d.
The City School Board of this city is
now attracting great deal of atten-
ton by the action of its members who
are unable to agree in regard to sever
al questions in regard to the policy of
the schools for the coming year. The
members of the Board are all Demo-
Gratis. Last fall the election resulted
in favor of the Democratic candidates
who were elected with a view of keep
ing down useless expenditures and
running the schools on a more econom-
ical and better business and financial
basis. The hold-overs on the Board
were of the same political faith and
the Board consequently was Democrat
ic throughout.
Some of the members of the Board
are in favor of abolishing the study of
music, which has been taught in the
schools of this city for the past two
years, and electing no one to fill the
vacancy of one of the teachers in the
High School, a language instructor,
and put the work on the other teachers.
Some are in favor of even abolishing
the Office of superintendent of schools
and requiring the superintendent to
teach and assume direct control of the
High School. On account of the In
creased revenue owing to the increased
value of real estate in this city under
the recent assessment, some of the
commissioners are against this and say
that the entire matter can be kept
up as before and more paid ON the
floating debt One commissioner, who
has been sick, has been unable to at
tend the meeting of the Board, and his
position in the matter is not known
Whenever the matter came up for a
vote during the recent sessions of the
Board, the vote was always a tie. Now,
however, the commissioner, having re-
covered, will be compelled to vote to
break the tie, which will inevitably ex-
list as soon as the matter comes to a
vote again. The entire matter is be-
ing viewed with a great deal of in
terest, not only by those who are di-
rectly concerned but by the entire
community as well.

TWO IMPORTANT CASES
Decided by Judge e. Boyd Faulkner.
Both to be Carried to the Supreme
Court.

Court.
Special TO the Register.
MARTINSBURG, w. Va, July 3d.
At a special session of he circuit
court in this city, with Judge e. Boyd
Faulkner on the bench, two important
cases were decided during the past
week. The first was the contested
election case of Lightburn VS.. Bennett,
removed here from Lewis county.
The case involved the right of the
litigating parties to the office of Clerk
of the county court of Lewis county.
Judge Faulkner has had the matter
under consideration for some time.
There were four points in the case
upon which the court ruled. First:
AS to whether the appeal was prop
erly granted by Judge Bennett, rel
ative of the cOntestee. The objection
to the appeals having been allowed
was overruled The fourth point,
which decided the the matter, unless
carried to the Supreme court, was the
vital point in the courts decision. 1t
involved the right of the county court
of Lewis county to continue the hear
ing of the case after the lapse of three
months from the date Of the election.
The court decided that the law in such
cases requiring such proceedings to be
made and had within three months
from the date of the election was
mandatory and not directory, and
that therefore all acts of the county
court of Lewis county in regard to the
case after the expiration of the three
months were utilities.
The court also announced his decis-
so, in Do VIZ n
proceeding, in which the county super
intendent of this county removed a
commissioner of the Board of Educa-
ton of the Gerardstown district, be-
cause the commissioner had not taken
the oath of office and qualified within
ten days, as required by law. The
county superintendent, according to the
school law, appointed a new commits
sioner, after the incumbent, Parker
son, had served two years of his term
The court decided in this case that the
law was mandatory law and not di-
rectory, ana required that the person
elected to the Office must qualify within
the time required by law Therefore,
the writ was quashed and the appoin-
tee of the county superintendent, Ket-
tering. was allowed to hold his office,
and Patterson, the contestant, was
ousted. The court said that all acts
done by the Board of Education of the
said district, during the time which
Parkerson served on the board, were
uncontestable, that Patterson, exercis-
ing the powers of his Office, was an
officer de facto, if not de jure. and as
such acted under color OF the law.
Both cases may be carried to the Su-
nreme Court
