Citizens to Protest Against the Action
 of the Police Board in Retiring Able-
 Bodied Men. ''' '.'''''
 If the police commissioners ever had an idea of passing lightly the com ments upon their work of Tuesday night, the public have never had such an idea, and already steps are being taken to place the matter in some kind of shape so that public formal pro- test may be lodged with the proper au- thorities. And all this feeling has been stirred up by the retirement of three able-bodied men, Captains Brewer and O'Keefe and Sergeant Bergin
 The principal step now undertaken is the calling of a mass meeting which will take place some time next week, when some of the representative citizens will be called upon to address the audience. The promoters of this meeting will for mulate an appeal to the commissioners to rescind their action of Tuesday night, and in the event of their failure to do so, an appeal will be made to Mayor -elect Studley. That that will have the desired effect may be gathered from his reply yesterday afternoon when asked if he was acquainted with the facts in the case His imperative reply that he was not but would be" clearly defined his feelings upon the matter.
 It was said last night that there were several petitions addressed to Mayor elect Studley appealing to him to up- hold the dignity of the department, and rescue the police board from such inn putations of trickery and deals as has been cast upon 1t during the past forty eight hours.

VERTICAL PENMANsHIP AGAIN

VERTICAL PENMANSHIP AGAIN
 Something over a year ago the New
 York city board Of education, after a course of which the members effectu- ally demonstrated how little they knew about the modern teaching of penmanship in the schools, passed a decree intended to discourage 2the teaching of the so-called vertical pen- manship. Evidently the sense of the teachers has outweighed this decree, and the teaching of this eminently superior style of handwriting has gone on To this fact the erudite board has just awakened, and 1t promptly pro- ceeds to stultify itself before the country eff it Is possible for it to do so after it's past record) by passing an order finally prohibiting altogether the teaching of this system in New Works schools.
 Probably, when the record of the New York school boards persistent ignorance on everything connected with educational matters Is considered, this action is as great a compliment as could be given to the vertical system of penmanship. To any sensible per- son who has examined the merits of this system as compared with the iilegible old style, it needs not the testimony of nine-tenths of the prac- tical teachers of penmanship in the public schools to prove that it is the most easily learned most rapid and legible system of penmanship yet discovorad J3IIf the neople who never had q days experience in teaching and very little in learning, any system of are positive that the new style is undesirable, and feel bound to fight against it.
 So New York, the city of this country whose educational methods should be most advanced, is to return to the old slant writing. We may reasonably ex- pect further progress in this line from this rapidly advancing city. The

ugly vertical writing is to be banished in favor of the older artistic slant system. No matter If nobody can read the slant hieroglyphics that most people turn dut, so long as they follow the ancient rules prescribed by the long ago lamented MT. Spencer. Very soon we may expect New York printed books and newspapers to discard the angular and inartistically plain printed type which has been lately in vogue, and return to the graceful italics, so popular 200 years ago which still remain in favor with the New York Sun.
