IN UNSANITARY CONDITION
Patron Calls Attention to Some
of Our School Houses.

EDITOR HERALD: The writer has
been hoping to see in your columns
some expression from our school
patrons as to the condition of certain
school buildings of the town. 1t is
very generally known to be unsatis-
factory, yet no one seems willing to
call public attention to it. What is
everybody's business is nobody's
business, and so things slide along,
and parents who would not permit
the slightest defect about their own
homes allow their children to spend
six hours of the day in rooms where
sewer gas makes itself plainly sens
ible to the nose.
The particular school building to
which / refer is the Fourth ward
building that model of all that a
school house ought not to be. re-
spectfully charge three things-First,
that the plumbing and drainage are
detective, and that the odor of me-
phitic gas at times pervades the en-
tire first floor of the building. There
has been an attempt to better this,
but it is a half-done job,-one OF
those of which Bro. Gardiner says:
"These half-way-dones are no good
for dis world nor de mex"
In the second place this building
is lighted in the ways most calculated
to harm the eyes-that is, each room
has light from one side only.
Lastly, there is no ventilation
worthy the name. In this building
you may open the windows If yor
wish but that does not clear thu
room of poisonous air. Moreover
in weather like the present, an.
proper airing is well nigh impossible
The idea of keeping forty or fift.
children shut up six hours of tn
day in improperly ventilated, badl,,
lighted and gas permeated rooms |
outrageous. Are the parents in tn
Fourth ward awake to the fact tina
diphtheria, malaria and variou
forms of eye trouble are induced b
Just such conditions.
What is our school board going Il
do about the matter? Surely the
I might finish what they have begun
! If there is no money for the purpose
and the credit of the district is no
good, public collection will be i
order. SCHOOL PATRON.

NO REVISION AFTER PAYMENT.

Decisions Concerning Claims Against the
Government.
Washington, Feb. 21.-The comp
troller Of tho treasury recently has
rendered several decisions in which he
holds that under the act of July 81.
1894, claimants against the government
who accept payment under settle
ment by the auditor are precluded from
obtaining a revision by the comptroller
of such settlement as to any items
which have been rejected. Persons, he
says, receiving treasury warrants in
payment of claims should not ransfel
or cash them If they are not satisfied
with the amount paid. Otherwise they
are estopped from asking for revi-
sion by the comptroller.

revenue bureau has made decision in
which he holds that special tax
stamp held by a corporation as q
liquor dealer cannot cover the same
business carried on by any other per.
son upon the ground that he had been
stakeholder in the corporation at the
time of its dissolution.
