King Glardioni and Queen Natalie had
been married for fifteen years.
This tribe Of gypsies has been 10
camp 10 the ROcksway Valley, about
mile and a-half from Morristown, for
the past month. The other day Kiug
GiaIdlopi walked over to Morris Plains
and purchased a keg Of cider. He
started to carry 1t to camp, bat found 1t
too heavy, so he transferred part of the
load from his shoulder to his stomach
and arrived at camp Unsteady on his
legs. Queen Natalie ragged and storm
ed. She kept 1t up for two days and
then gave forth her ultimatum. She
would bs divorced. King Giardioni
agreed and the tribe was called to-
gsther.
The sacred marriage rod was brought
out and placed on cloth Ia the centre
OF circle Of eVpsies. Then the prop
erty of the tribe ,vss brought vut piece
by piece. Half OF it was placed on one
side of the rod and half on the other.
The horses and wagons we're drawn up
10 the same order. Then the Queen
opened q book and gave the numrsr Of
the page. the King did likewise and
as be came nearest the centre OF the
nook he stepped over on the north side
of the marriage rod. The @ leen took her
place anong the goods on the south

ground together picked up the rod,
each holding an end, and after mo-
ment's hesitation broke 1t 10 twain.

THE PUBLIC SCHOOL SYSTEM

THE PUBLIC SCHOOL SYSTEM
The conference of educators, held in
this city recently, dealt with number
of subjects OF great interest.
There were present the Superintend-
ent of Poblic obstruction and the prin-
cipals of all the educational institu-
tiors which receive aid from the State,
and several OF the best-known city and
county school superintendents.
O1e OF the most important proceed
ings OF the conference was the adoption
of an earnest protest against the pro.
posed division of the school fund on
the ratio OF taxes paid by thetwo races.
The conference expressed the view that
such q policy would be utterly subver-
sive OF the principle upon which the
public schools rest.
The conferees we're of opinion that
decided progress has been made in ne.
gro education, and that what should
constitute the qualifications OF the Su.
perintendent OF Public Instruction and
of county and city superintendent
should be defined by law.
Another important recommendation
made was that the State Board Of edu.
cation shall consist Of the Governor,
Attorney. General, and the heads Of the
State Psychological and Normal
schools, and that the board shall elect
the superintendent of public iusIruc-
ton and the various county and city
superlnteDdents. The conference was
opposed to State uniformity OF text
books, preferring to leave that matter
to city and county school boards, under
certain conditions and restrictions. Pro-
test was made against sny proposition
to exclude from the schools the child
rem OF those who have not paid the poll
| tax.
The conference favored providing out
OF local school funds the necessary in'
expensive apparatus for instruction II
drawing, sewing, cooking, woodwork
etc, The school fund, 10 the opinion
OF the conference. should be distributed
on the basis Of the school population.
These recommendations were com
piled in q report, which was submitted
to the education ommittee OF the con
ventiop. -[R!chmond Dispatch.

ing that the court make a decree set
ting aside the verdict Of the jury. The

ninety-six years old, was suffering from
seniIe debility and totally unfit to take
care of her estate or her person. Mrs.

count Of the Illness Of one of her chill
dren. who is bedridden. 1t was also
stated that the income from Mrs. Kick
hams estate is sufficient TO support her
during her life. The estate. which con-
sists Of both real and personal property.

group during the last few minutes of the
day, but the close still showed important
reactions. The new story yesterday was
that a bill for scent fare on the street
railways in Greater New York Will be
pushed to a law by the Legislature. There
is no fear that this threat will be car
ried out. II has been decided virtually
that such a law would be unconstitu-

story, which served as well as any other
for the bears who are extremely peSSi-
