 LAR SUBSCRIPTION.

 CIub-Ths Public Cordially Invited to
 Visit the New Club House-The New
 Prospectns
 The finance committee of the Edwin Bancroft Foote Boys club, which en- joyed such an suspicious opening not long since. has sent out to friends of the club the recently prepared prospec- tus and plea for the work. The state ment says that about s2.000 will be re- quired yearly above the endowment, which the club enjoys through the gen. erosity of MT. Foote. e-..,.s
 The boys themselves have pledged $500 leaving but $1,5OO to be given by gener- ous friends of the club. The members, when they learned that fund was to be raised and money asked for, started subscription paper among themselves and the amounts subscribed vary from one cent to several dollars. The boys act shows the value at which they place the club make possible for them through Mr. Foote.
 Working boys, though they are, and it is only working boys who are permit ted to join the club. they are giving nobly of what they have. Newsboys, bootblacks, elevator boys, office boys, clerks, and the like, all are contributing and it is an example to those who pos sess a comfortable income.
 The money subscribed to be used for f1o ma ayiaI ft,nit inc department (for tools, etc, in addition to those purchased by the gift of Mrs Mary ?. Wade). and for the Working Boys summer camp at Tuxis island. The club members themselves pay half of the summer camp expenses.

A Every evening the gymnasium classes | and educational classes are in opera l tion, the game room and circulating li- ! brary open and in fact every depart ] ment of the club in full swing.
 The finance committee which is com l posed of Anson Phelps Stokes, jr., l NIudIIeS [. w dIhSI anu <aSiiICy IL. w has deemed a general application to the | friends of the club to be the best way
 to raise the money needed, and without doubt they and the general public will gladly participate in giving to make this | noble work for young, poor working boys a success.
 From small beginning last winter | when the club had to meet in the junior department rooms oS the Y. M. c. A.
 building, the club has now grown to a membership of over 400 boys, each one a
 bona fde working boy and each one paying for his own membership out oi his own pocket.

 is having a good success in his manage
 ment of the affairs of the club. He ha:
 won the confidence of the boys and thu
 club is attracting attention from al
 over the country where interest ha'
 been aroused in the men of tomorrow

Explained Demurrage Charges to Man.
 usacturers,
 Waterbury, April 27.-President Hall of the Consolidated road came to Wa terbury to-day and attended meeting of the manufacturers of the Naugatuck valley, called for the purpose of discuss ing the proposed change in the law which gives shippers ninety-six hours in which to unload their goods from freight cars. About forty business men were present. President Hall spoke concerning the pending bill which al- lows but forty-eight hours for consign- ees to unload cars without demurrage, while the present law gives ninety-six.
 Until about ten years ago." said President Hall. "forty-eight hours was the rule in force in the state of Connec- ticut. It is the rule in force in every other state in the union to-day with the exception ot the New England states. At that time the present law was pass ed granting ninety-six hours. There are only two other states in the union which have laws upon this subject, Illinois, which grants but forty-eight hours, and
 New Jersey, which gives only twenty four hours. .-... ;. Previous to July i, 1902. the rule in force by the American Railroad asso- citation allowed foreign railroads to charge a certain price per mile for all
 cars in use on another road. That is,
 our road paid a certain price per mile
 for all foreign cars as long as they stay ed on our lines. Under that rule we paid | out $120,000 more than we received. Since
 July 1, 1902, charge of 20 cents per day
 has been the rule, under which is be- l comes necessary for us to get foreign
 cars back to their home lines as fast as l possible. Up to April we had paid | out $700,Q00 more than last year.
 ''The bill in question seeks to remedy I this. We have failed to understand why | the manufacturers and merchants of Connecticut could not unload their cars | as soon as those of every other state. | Connecticut has been enjoying privi- | lege which no other state has given. 1 There has been so much opposition to
 the bill, however, that we have conclud-
 ed to amend it by allowing two days
 free days and two days charge at the
 same price we are forced to pay, i. e., 2t | cents per day. This we think is fair" l The subject was debated by mum. Der of the merchants and business men

superIntendent NeaI,s case.

When the GL0BE stated last week that
the school muddls had been amleably
adjusted Il spoke In good faith. This
pHper has been led 10 believe all
through this unfortunate proceeding
that tbs expiration OF Professor Meals
crtiicnte was OF recent occurrence and
felt that the penalty for Whist seemed to
be IN oversight or misconstruction Of
the law fell altogether on Mr.. Neal IN
the loss Of his months salary. Later
Developments, however sbOw that our
information was incorrect and that the
matter is mnch more SeriOus and CON-
pliratrd than IL at 6rst Appeared.
We have had no desire a. suppress or
cover up anything connected with this
matter bslieyiug that the pnblic Is en-
titled TO the facts IN all cases In which
the public is interested.
II now appears that Mr.. Nesl's eertIh-
cate expired three years ago. When the
matter was agitated few weeks ago he
proceeded 10 call bis board OF examiners
together 10 no eEamIned for permit.
Only one Of the board responded and
the examination was proceeded with.
This was clearly not legal, although Mr..
Neal claims that II has been the custom
in this and other counties 10 conduct
special examination for permits with
only one member Of the board present.
The next step taken was the resignation
oi Mr.. Neal. ~ principal Of the school,
which was Submitted 10 the board OF d.
FecioFs, but upon protest FROM the pm
pills aud upon agreenient by Mr.. Neal
that he would convene legal board OF
examiners aud be reexamined for per-
nit Il was not accepted. 0n Friday
morning oi last week new board VAS
formed aud Friday and Saturday Mr..
Neal was examined for permit which
was granted.
About this time the fact was made
public that his certificate had expired
some three years ago and this go compli-
Gated mAtters that Mr.. Neal handed in
his second resignation which Was &C
cepted.
As yet no teacher has been secured TO
Oil the position Of principal and that de-
partment Of the school 10 closed. The
most depl"Table part OF the whole matter
is the injury II Il will work on the school
which will he seriously crippled for the
entire term.
