At O'Clock yesterday afternoon, a

The sailor had been sent aloft to fix
the rigging on the mast and in crawl

hold. Before he struck he turned
over in the air, landing on his back.
The members of the crew thought the
fellow had been killed and were
astonished to find him able to sit up.
The captain, thinking that the man
might have received internal injuries.
had the doctor called. When the
steamship sails awav, it is expected
that the sailor will be all right.

WILL MAKE
BUT SLIGHT
CHANGE HERE.
Court Declared School Law Un-
constitutional Return
to Old System.
Mr.. SKULLS REMARKS.

Nearly every resident of this city,
who is interested in Public School
work, will read with surprise that
the Court of Errors decided yesterday
the Mckee School law to be unconsti-
tutional. 1t was passed by the Legis-
lature two years ago and was amended
last year to obviate constitutional
objections then found by the courts.
1t sought to make uniform and
codify the many school laws and was
supported by the State Board of Edu-
cation. The act was sustained recent
ly in suit before the Supreme Court,
but the higher court reversed yester-
day the court below. 1t is held the
act is unconstitutional in that it is
special legislation, certain districts
having been excepted from its proyi.
sions.
The court filed only memorandum
and announced that the opinion of the
court would be filed in few DAYS by
Justice Pitney.
The decision will affect nearly every
school district in the State. These
districts will now be conducted under
the lines of the old school laws.
Several school districts during the
past few years have been unable to
borrow money on account of the doubt
surrounding the authority to do sc
under the Mckee law.
When Prof. Shull, superintendent
OF the Perth Amboy schools, was seen
by a News reporter, this morning, he
said that he did not think it would
effect the local public schools very
much if they did have to go back
under the old law, although the Nc
Kee law, he thought, was the best.
The only trouble that might result by
going back to the old law would bt
regarding the States allowance il
proportion to number of school teach
ers. Under the old law Mr.. Shull said
the city of New Brunswick had sixty
five teachers and received yearly abou
$1s, 900. Perth Amboy had fiftytwC
teachers at that time and received
$12, 900. If the new law is done away
with and the old law comes back int
force, and We are rated the same IA
before, we will receive about $1S. 00(
because we have sixty-seven teacher
at the present time. AS this is abou
what we are getting now, it will no
affect US very much.
