City COUNSEL News.

The City Council met Monday in
regular session. Ordinary business
was disposed of as usual. But un-
expected developments arose out
of the attempt Of Chief of Police
Alphonse Peck to claim that as
chief he was entitled to the tax col
lectorship, ex-ofhcio.
When the present Council was
installed, a Chief of Police and a
tax collector were elected. Several
years ago, the chief performed the
duties of the present corporation
tax collector. 1t can reasonably be
supposed that such has been the
custom since the adoption of our
charter in 1896. When Mr.. Wig
neaux was defeated several years
ago, the Council succeeding chose
a Chief of Police and also tax
collector and it has been SO ever
since. Mr.. Peck himself during his
past term of office had nothing to
do with the collection of the taxes.
The members of the Council
supposed that the old order of
things would be continued, and
consequently at their first meeting,
Mr.. Peck and Mr.. Charles Debail-
lon were elected as chief and COL
lector. respectively. When the
Council met Monday, Mr.. Crow
Girard as Mr.. Peck's attorney, Of
fered his bond as tax-collector,
claiming that by right Mr.. Peck was
entitled to the emoluments that the
tax-collector received. Mr.. o. G.
Mouton also appeared before the
Council on behalf Of Mr.. Peck's
claim. But the gentlemen compos-
ing that body differed with Mr..
Peck, and proceeded to settle the
whole matter by prompt action.
A resolution was passed declaring
the Office of Chief of Police vacant,
and Mr.. Henry Hebcrt was elected
chief.
Mr.. Peck, through his attorneys,
Messrs. Grow Girard and Orther
c. Mouton, has petitioned the dis
pei the Council to re-instate him
and to pay him ali the emoluments
which he way be entitled to as tax
collector.

Notice to School
Teachers.
Important

Inn ROrG8mC NOVuS0 10 SSnOOb-
Teachers.
In recognition of the high value
of the school work that will be
done by the South louisiana Sum-
mer Normal at Franklin from June
10, to July 6, 1901, the Police Jury
of the parish of Lafayette, with
public spiritedness,
has made a special appropriation of
*6fteen dollars toward defraying the
expenses of each parish school
teacher who will attend, The said
Summer Normal for not less than
two weeks, and will afterward Sc
cure an appointment as teacher for
the next scholastic term in the par
ish of Lafayette.
Actuated by the same high mo-
tive the Parish School Board is
pledged by written agreement in
advance of the next regular meet
ing of the Board, to appropriate an
additional *ten dollars for every
public school teacher who will at
tend the full term of the said Sum-
mer Normal, and five dollars for
every teacher who will be in at
tendance not less than three zOeeks.
1t is hoped that all our school
teachers will take advantage of the
liberal proposition made to them
by the Police Jury and the School
Board, and give proof in that way
of their appreciation of the signal
action of these two public bodies,
whose members are convinced that
the effec: of such a plan will find
early fruition in better school man
agement throughout the parish.
BY special arrangement with the
State faculty in charge of the
Normal School, an examination OF
teachers will be held at the close of
the exercises, for the benefit of
teachers who would like to take
such examination voIunfariy, and
the various parish School Boards
constituting the South Louisiana
Summer Normal Association have
agreed to issue teachers certificates
to all candidates passing this ex-
animation satisfactorily. And
teachers who will obtain certifi Gates
under this arrangement will be re-
lieved of taking the regular exami-
nation next October.
1t is believed that many teachers
will gladly avail themselves OF the
opportunity thus given to them OF
passing an examination at a time
when the helpful instructions re-
ceived at the Summer Normal will
be so fresh in their minds.
I All teachers desiring to take ad-
vantage of the generous offer of the
Police Jury and School Board, ex-
planned above, are requested to give
me notice of such intention, with vi
delay. Respectfully,
N. P. Moss,
Acting Parish Superintendent.
