Grammar School = Boys Must
Work as Hard as Ever.
There Will be But Zone Session OF
the Public Schools on Stormy
Days Hereafter. Prim-
airy SchoolsssIn-
spected.

A lengthy discussion took place at the
meeting of the Board of Education last
| night over the new rules, but adjourn
ment took place before they were finally
completed. Mr.. Fraim said that Mr..
Morrow, who made the motion to adj
journ, had done so for the ninth time
and if it had not been for him the rules
would have been adopted months ago.
Much time was spent in attempting to
decide on rule tor closing school on
stormy days. The law committee in
their report recommended that the gram
mar schools, on story days close at
O'Clock for the day and the primary at
II 80 1t was finally decided that the
schools should have but one session, the
regular morning session on stormy days.
The principals OF the schools and visit
ing committees have the power to close
the schools.
The board refused to lever the averages
required in the six h grade grammar
schools and higher grrdes. The rule
adopted is as follows: "All pupils of the
sixth grade grammar and all higher
grades who get term averages as high as
seventy.five for daily work in every
branch except one and not less than
seventy in that branch shall be promoted
at the beginning OF the next term.
The law committee reported that it
could not find the High Schoo! investi-
CATION report desired by DIR. Crum-
baugh.
The damages sustained by motor at
No. l6 school being burned out during
the recent storm have been adjusted
The board was invited to attend the

RAY JURY
SPENT NIGHT
IN COURT HOUSE
They Have Been Out Since
1870 O'clock Yesterday
Morning.
THE CHARGE OF JUDGE LORE
L.. G. Vandegrift, Attorney for Dia.
mond State Steel Company, Had
an Exception Noted to the
Charge---Both Claims Re-
viewed by the Judge.

The jury in the 81, 600 damage suit oil
Jesse Ray VS.. the Diamond State Steel
Company, on trial in the Superior Court,
spent the night in the Court House,
having been locked up by order Of the
Court
They returned about 10.30 o'clock
Yesterday morning and when court took
a recess at ] O'Clock yesterday afternoon
had not yet agreed on verdict.
Dinner was provided for them in the
jury room. They remained out all alter
noon and at p. m. had not yet agreed
on verdict.
Court then took recess to $50 last
evening. Judge Boyce arrived at the
Court House about that time and re-
manned there till about S ~ N. He
then adjourned court to 10 O'clock this
morning. The jury was locked up
for the night. Supper was sent in to
them about 10 p. m.
In charging the jury yesterday morn
ing Chief Justice Lire reviewed Il e
claims of both sides; Of the plaintiff, that
tue accident occurred while in the line of
his employment he was helping to push
a truch loaded with hot iron; that the
accident happened because the track and
truck were defective, of which defective
condition the defendant had notice.
The defendant, however, claimed that
both track and truck were in good order;
that it was not within the scope of the
plaintiffs 8 work to assist in pushing the
truck, and that the injuries were the re-
suit of Rays own negligence.
The court said it was the primary duty
OF the master to provide a reasonably
safe place in which to work, and safe
tools and appliances. Where machinery
is defective in the knowledge of the en-
ploye, yet if the master promises to
remedy the defect and the empoye, rely
ing upon that promise, continues to use
it for reasonable time, he does SO at
the masters risk, inasmuch as he has
right to rely upon such promise. The
burden was upon the plaintiff to show
negligence of defendant by preponder-
ance OF testimony. 1t must be the result
Of the defendant only; for if the plaintiff
contributed proximately in any way to
the accident, he may not recover. Mr..
Nandegrift for the defendant company
asked that an exception be noted to the
charge.
