BOARD OF EDUCATION.
Board of Education Decided to Close It Up as Unsafe.

Board Of Education Decided to Close .... It Up as Unsafe.
 It seems that at last the old school building on Elm street Is to go. Build ing Inspector Chatield has reported 1t unsafe and Superintendent Tinker was 1 instructed to close the building per manently. Inspector Chatfeld's report runs as foows:
 Tn compliance with instructions tor .request) from your honorable boards have made inspection as to the safe and existing conditions of the founda- tions and brick walls of the Elm street school building, with the following re- suits: The original material for foun- dations and wall was inferior in quality and workmanship. The brick walls are far from being plumb and very much out Of line. on account Of outside portions of the brick walls bulging. also find a number of iron rods running through the brick walls and building which have been placed there within a few years to prevent any farther change or displacement of said walls. Although there may not be any danger of immediate failure the results are difficult to foresee and it would be pos sible for the walls to give way at any time. Therefore I would recommend you to make some provisions at once for other quarters for those teachers and 600 children who now occupy said building. as I do not consider safety possible under these existing condi- tions."
 The motion to have the building closed was made by Commissioner Goodersough. The children of the Elm street school will be provided for as far as possible in the nearby schools.
 Years ago the Elm street school building was deemed unsafe for any purpose. It has an interesting history which fully appears in the souvenir edition of the Democrat which appears next Sunday morning. Twice or more an appropriation had been made for the erection of new building on the Elm street school property, but for some reason the idea was never carried out. It has been held up with props for long time. A vote was passed last evening requesting an appropria- ton of $60,000 for new building on the site of the present one, and for an- other appropriation of S4.0O0 to com plete two rooms in the Driggs school.
 Superintendent Tinker made the fol lowing report:
 ''The reports for the month of Sep tember show that 8. S.1S5 pupils were in attendance during the month of Sep tember, gain of 324, as compared with the same period in 1902. This Is about the average annual increase, sufficient to nearly fill eight school rooms.
 ''The enumeration has been com pleted. The number of children of school age in the city is 14,833, an in- crease Of 16S over the returns for last year. The largest gains were found in Barnard. Clay, Russell. Lincoln Washington, Walsh and Webster dis 1 tricts. Tn some districts small de- crease was reported"

A Natural Born Pianist.

NEW YORK, Nov. 19.-A little girl of about twelve, wearing short skirts and looking singularly intelligent for her age stood on the deck of the big Kaiser Wilhelm II. as she steamed out across the Atlantic. Henrietta Scholder had just parted from her father and was on her way to Vienna where for the next few years she is to study music under the tuition of Professor Leschititzky. The necessary funds have been provided by Heinrich Conreid, director of the Met ropolitan Opera House, who is taking great interest in the future of the child and believes that she will develop into a great artist. Like Josef Hofmann, Henrietta Scholder gave evidences of unusual gifts from early infancy

 for War.
 BOGOTA, Colombia, Nov. 1o-An of ficial answer has been sent to the note presented by United States Minister Beaupre informing the Colombian gov ernment that Washington had entered into official relations with the republic of Panama. The reply has been sent by Senor Carlos Ricos, minister of for eign affairs, who vigorously defended the Colombian government and threat ened to march an army on Panama un- less the United States immediately re- ceded from its position.
 That the Colombians are willing to fight to maintain their dignity and, if possible, retake Panama is shown by the strong support offered the govern ment and the popular approval of the stand taken by Minister Ricos. The minister in his note to the United States through MT. Beaupre says:
 '"The Colombian government protests energetically at the attitude taken by the United States. By the recognition of Panama and the warning that the United States will not allow Colombia to put down the rebellion the hereto fore friendly relations existing between the two governments have arrived at such a critical state that it is absolute ly impossible to continue diplomatic relations unless the Washington gov ernment should immediately give mo- ttce that 1t has no intention to prevent Colombia from retaking the isthmus or to extend any recognition to the bel ngerents."
 The note concludes by stating that "a prompt reply Is awaited from Wash ington, as the Colombian army is ready to march on Panama at once."

Sixteen Indictments Against Palmist,
 Who Ia Wantcd in Boston.

 Chicago, Nov 19s--Police Inspector Cleary of Boston, who has been in Chi- caGo for a month trying to secure H. R. Kendall, palmist and clairvoyant, who Is wanted in Boston on sixteen indictments charging swindling, left to-day without his prisoner.
 Prof Kendall was arrested on Oc- tober 12. Inspector Cleary came on October IS with reQuisition papers and copies of the indictments.

TREATY IS SIGNED.
Hny-Bunau-varilla Isthmian Cana
 Compact Completed.


 WASHING1O> Nov. 19.-The Hay Runau-Varilla isthnlian canal treaty was signed last night at the residence of Secretary Hay by the secretary and Philippe Bunau-Varilla, the minister from Panama.
 The Panama commissioners who ar rived last night have ratified the treaty, which is much simpler than the former Hay Herran treaty, though it follows it's general lines. Absolute sovereignty is awarded the United States over the canal strip. and the convention, it is stated, In every way meets the re- Quirements of the Spocner act.
 Although the treaty has not been made public. the substance of the docu- ment is as follows:
 The keynote of tha treaty is the pro- vision in one of the very first articles by which Panama cedes to the United States whatever land or lands through out the republic of Panama this gov- ernment shall find desirable in connec- tion with the building or the operation and maintenance of the canal. In ad- dition the treaty gives to the United States absolute sovereignty over the canal strip, which, it Is understood, comprises between eight and ten miles on each side of the canal Within this zone the power of the United States is as absolute as if the zone were part and parcel of this country.
 The cities of Panama and Colon re- tain their municipal autonomy under the republic of Panama so long as they .AA- Al a%~ar conditions to the satisfaction of the United States. Failure to do this gives the United States, according to the treaty, the right to force strict compli- ance with the wishes of this govern ment in this direction, and the United States can even use force to compel obedience to its rules as to public order and public health in these cities.
 The money consideration is the same in the new treaty as in the Hay Her. ran convention, with the exception that the SIG, 100000 goes to Panama instead of to Colombia.
 The treaty further provides that the canal is to be neutral and open to all nations on even terms.
 The state department has received advices that the departments of Cauca and Antioquoia of Colombia are seek s ing to separate from that government and are soliciting admission into the Panama republic. aas@iss .ssz'
 No surprise is expressed at the re- port that the departments of Cauca and Antioquoia are making an effort to align themselves and become part of the republic of Panama. The two de- partments and also that of Bolivar are the most prosperous in the whole Go lombian territory. They contribute the greater portion of the revenues for the federal treasury, that of Antioquoia alone paying about one-third of the en- tire amount.
 The following cablegram has been received at the state department from Consul General Gudger at Panama:
 There Is good deal of excitement in Buenayentura and some feeling against foreigners. The Colombian government is said to be considering land invasion of the isthmus"
 Admiral Glass is expected to send a ship to Buenaventura if in his judg- ment the situation warrants 1t, and he will be communicated with to that ef- feet"

GARD FROM CADET JUNIORS.
 Waterbury. Nov ia. 1903.


 Editor Evening Democrat:
 Dear Sir: Tn the columns of the morning Republican, in the standing of the minor football teams Of this city, they credit the Cadet Juniors with four games won and one lost, which is not correct. The game with the Orients yesterday was won by the Cadets by the score of 5 too. It was agreed be- fore the game that any man running out in the crowd with the ball should go back where he started to run. T0 prove this Legge of the Cadets ran about forty yards into the crowd and he went back but when Kane of@the Orients ran out in the crowd for q touchdown the Orients would not go back. So Dunphy who was referee in the second half, ordered the Orients to bring the ball back. but thev would not. The Orients left the field like a lot of quftters, so the referee gave the game to the Cadets. The Cadets touchdown was clean one, being made in about seven minutes of the first half As to Red Sheefv, the umpire in the second half. What priv ilege did he have in saying the Orients made the touchdownP If was the ref eree's place and not the umpire's. The Cadets have not been defeated by a team in this city in four years. They have defeated already this season t'R Films, Orients Savages. Watervillns and Columbias Thus they claim the championship of t11A city. Thanking you for this valuable space Tn vour paper, D. KELLY. Manager of Cadet Juniors
 The St Thomas Cadets will play Winsted for the championship of the state Saturday.

FEDERATION OF LABOR.

Attempt to FOist Socialism on Or-

 BOSTON, Nov. 19. - Tn historic Faneuil hall and at the end of a ses- sion remarkable because of the fervor of It's oratory the attempt of the so- cialist delegates to have the organiza- tion pledge itself to socialism was sig nally defeated at the convention of the American Federation of Labor.
 The climax of the day of battle was President Gompers himself. Tn an in tense and impressive. manner and in bitter and unqualified language he scourged socialism and what he claim cd was all attempt to induce the con rention to adept lis principles.
