Family OF Dr.. Anton Weiskopf Present
the WeiskOpf School With a
Tower Bell and Flag.
THE OLD BUILDING IS NOT SOLD.
New Board of Education Ready to Organize
But an Adjournment is Taken Until
Next Tuesday Evening.

The Board of Education met in reg
u1ar session at the city hall Tuesday
evening. 1t was supposed to be the
last meeting of the old Board and the
newly elected membe all of whom
had qualified, we're present and ready
to take their seats but at the last min
ute it was decided not to organize the
Board until the meeting to be held on
next Tuesday evening. It is not ap-
parent why there should be any further
delay, but one of the committees had
business which was not closed up and
for this reason the adjournment was
taken.
There was little business of import
ance at the meeting. Nearly all the
business of the Board was completed
month ago and the unfinished BUSH
ness was largely left over for the new
Board to wrestle with.
A communication was received from
the wife and children of the late DR..
Weiskopf thanking the Board for their
consideration of DR.. Weiskopf in nam
ing the new Sixth ward school in his
honor and asking permission to pre-
sent the school with a tower bell and
an American flag as a slight token of
the appreciation of the friends of DR..
Weiskopf for.the honor that had been
conferred upon him. The permission
wasfgranted by unanimous vote and
the bell will be installed as soon as the
tower of the new school is completed.
George Murdick asked permission to
give a magic lantern show for the ben
| eft of the High school library at the

ter was referred to the High school
committee with power to act. Lieu
tenant O'F1arrety, of the American
army in the Philippines, who has been
giving illustrated lectures in many
cities, asked permission to give lee
ture at the auditorium. This matter
was also referred to the High school
committee with power to act.
The old Sixth ward school was not
disposed of on account of the fact that
the bids were all lower than the Board
SAOuS AL ~ 1OSSAOA ~ oNNOPIs AC
Board held that.the building was worth
at least $500 and as the highest bid re-
ceived was $525 all bids were rejected
and superintendent was ordered to
advertise for new bids.
DIR. Heller, the man who makes a
chemical preparation for de-odorizing,
camel in strong before the Board and
sent a letter advising the Board as to
the demands of the schools in the way
of fumig alton. He also sent 800 worth
of his preparation which he asked the
Board to take as a sixty days trial
order. The Board left the matter to
the new Board, who will begin their
career by studying fumigators and
germicides.
The committee on buildings and
grounds reported that $1,000 was due
to John Betting on his contract for the
new school building and an order was
ordered drawn for the amount.
After allowing the usual number of
bills the Board adjourned until next
Tuesday evening.
