PLACE OF PRINCIPAL VACANT.
Ferguson School in Stir Over Pu.
pills Statements.

John T. Rapp is no longer principal Of
the Ferguson School on the Olive street
road. John Grueninger. Sr., president o.
Board of Directors of that district, said
yesterday that the board decided last week
to declare the position vacant
The action of the board followed COM
plants that had been made by Lena Jacobs
4-year-old girl, and her father. Charles
Jacobs. who is foreman of the Lamb quar-
ry In ST. Louis County. Lena was a pupil
in the Ferguson School and claimed that
she had been treated in an unjust manner
by her principal nearly Il month ago. The
Board of Directors consists of Mr.. Gruen-
niger. owen Harmon and Fred Stille. 1t
seems that her statements were first made
to Mr.. Stille. who considered them of suf-
flcient Importance to call special meeting
of the board At this meeting it was de-
cided to declare the place of principal va
cant.
Mr.. Jacobs concluded. however. not to let
the matter rest there. He engaged Attorney
D. c. TAYLOR of Manchester and they went
there TO take some action. Jacobs has made
several visits to the county seat. The last
time was "Wednesday. and he took his
daughter with him. They called on John
r. Warfield the assistant States attorney,
who told them to 20 before Justice Green's
fielder and make an affidavit. They did not
do so.
Mr.. Grueniuger said yesterday that there
was considerable feeling over the matter
by the patrons of the district.
Mr.. Rapp declares that the statements
made against him are not true. and that ne
will prove his statements at the proper
time He says he was present at the meet
ing Of the Board of Directors TO meet the
complainants and disprove their statements.
but they did not appear.

Ghastly Scenes at ST. Pierre.
Roseau. Island OF Dominica, June IT.
With the permission of NJ. L'Huerre. the
Governor of Martinique, the ruins of ST.
Pierre were visited yesterday by the Ad-
ninistrator of the Island of Dominica, H
H. Bell. and a party OF friends, who pro-
ceeded for Martinique on the steamer YaI.
Mont Peles was in eruption, and ashes
fell upon the Yale when she was passing
Le Precheur. There were intermittent de-
tonatons, ana the summit of the volcano
was completely obscured by cloud, of
steam and ashes. Dense volumes of steam,
apparently from small craters, rose by the
seashore near the ruins of the Guerin
sugar factory, and from several places I'D

had poured May g.
The ruins of st. Pierre presented a
ghastIy sight. Rains had removed much
of the sand and ashes with which they
had been covered. and many corpses were
partly exposed. The odors were strong and
nauseating.
The valley Of the River Roxellans has
been blocked. and a portion of the river
has been turned into the ruins OF St
Pierre. the northwest portion of which is
partially flooded.
While Mr.. Bell and his party were pro-
ceeding with their inspection of the ruins
an avalanche Of black scoriae and sand
fell to the east Of the town, accompanied
by loud detonations, which alarmed the
visitors.
The north end OF the Island Of Mar
Unique is gray with ashes, and the whole
population in that section appear TO have
left the scene Of death and desolation.
