A resolution proposed by Prof Ireland on
the public school question was passed
unanimously. 1t sets forth that there have
recently appeared in the local press several
communications severely criticising the
methods and the management of our public
school,. and states that the association
is convinced that said criticism emanates
mainly from either the uniformed or the
mfsinformed." 1t is further set forth that
the association wishes ito be recorded as
believing that our schools-measured by the
only correct standard. viz, their results
rank considerably above the average public
school of the country. and that in our ludg-
ment this success Is chiefly due to the wise
and liberal management of the authorities
directing the same. and that in the chief
executive officer of that body the superin-
tendent We have a man in whose wisdom to
plan and ability to execute, We have un.
shaken confidence"

CABLE CHESS MATCH.
England Ahead in the First Days
Play.

For the fifth consecutive time the teams
representing the chess players of the United
States and those of the United Kingdom
began playing yesterday for the silver cup
given by Sir George Newnes. Most of the
men in both teams have played before the
exception being S. W. Benton, one of the
strongest players of Philadelphia, and a
young Englishman named Ward, who is
promising and brilliant, according to Lon
don reports. The arrangements in the as
sembly rooms Of the Brooklyn Academy OF
Music. where the American end of the
match is being conducted, were about the
same as in previous matches, the progress
of the games being recorded on ten big
boards suspended from the wall, affording
full view to the audience.
Inc usual exchange of courtesies was
started by the American team sending the
following dispatch to the British team:
"Fraternal greetings. The hope for vic
tory will inspire our Efforts
The Brooklyn Chess Club sent the follow
ing dispatch TO the British Chess Club in
London:
Cordial salutations. We have put our
best foot forward and hope to keep your
cup
Sir George Newnes sent this dispatch to
the president of the Brooklyn Chess Club:
Once more We meet in friendly rivalry.
May the match be as pleasant now as on
former occasions, and may the best team
win. The members of our team send their
hearuest greetings to their American cous-
ms and will do their best to bring the cup
once more to this sde''
Promptly at 10 O'Clock Leopold Hoffer, the
American umpire in London, sent the fol-
lowing message TO the British representa-
tive here:
Greetings. Will you toss for move? Brit
ish team ready"
The drawing resulted in the American
team getting first move on the odd-num-
bered and, second on the even-numbered
boards, while the Englishmen had white on
even-numbered and black on odd-numbered
boards. By singular coincidence it so hap
pened that each player on the boards one
TO ten as numbered, has had move and sec
ond move alternately. The American chess
enthusiasts took it good omen that the
national champion, Pillsbury. had the move
against Blackburne. and they confidently
expect him to win.
The American players for the first time
displayed a prediction for what are tech
n1caliy termed open games, which afford a
better field for aggressiveness and eventual
brfiliancy than the close openings which
the majority of the British players adopt
Although the first days play left Great
Britain in the lead by the score of IL to Il
the outlook Is nevertheless encouraging for
the American players. They are at no seri-
Gus disadvantage on the remaining boards
while they have the better positions on four
or five tablesNthose Of Showalter, Hymes
Voigt and Delmar-whHe Pillsbury, Mar
shall and Barry should do no worse than
draw.
Here follow the pairings and the openings:

Blythe election in TIE Seventh Kentucky
district the other day all the seats in the
House are filled, and the vote of the Dem

a majority of thirteen over all. The ma
jority will be much greater than this,
however, for all important measures
which the Republicans will put forward.
The gold standard bill got lead of forty.
Eleven Democrats voted for it, and other

not hesitate to recommend it. Before

change in myself, and four bottles cured
me entirely. I would not be without
Pe-ru-na for any consideration.
The reason so many people get chron-
ic catarrh is, the disease gets firmly es-
rahlished before it is recognized. They
fool themselves by calling it some other
name than its proper one-catarrh.
When people get acute catarrh they
call it cold. If they have acute nasal
catarrh it is called coryza. Endemic
catarrh they call influenza, and cpl
demic catarrh they name la grippe.
When the catarrh reaches the throat
it is called tonsilitis, or Iarvngitis.
| Catarrh of the bronchial tubes is called
bronchitis; catarrh or the lungs con-
sumption. Any internal remedy that
will cure catarrh in one location will
cure if in any other location. This is

In order to adapt it more closely to the
wants of the general public, and to make
it more than ever before the medium of
readable and trustworthy information on
scientific subjects, the publishers of Apple
tons Popular Science Monthly inaugurate
with this number several marked changes
in the magazine which will commend
themselves to all classes of readers. In
the first place, the price is lowered to
twenty five cents, which puts the publ
cation within the reach of every one who
cares to keep up with the rapid march of
discovery and the more important appli-
cation of new facts in the arts and in ius
tries. In the next place, the topics dis
cussed are to be given a broader range,
thus charging the scope of the magazine
as vehicle of useful and entertaining
knowledge, and extending its appeal to Il
wider circle of readers. Iu word, the
philosophy of science which has heretofore
been prominent feature Of the magazine
is to give place to the facts and principles
that apply directly to the concerns of
everyday life. A third feature of the new
departure will be the employment of dis
tlnguished specialists as writers on their
respective subjects, who are able to pre-
sent their ideas in form suited to the
general reader, and whose names give what
they have to say a stamp of accuracy and
authority. These and some minor changes
of form are introduced in the January
number.
