After the next regular meeting of
the board, presumably in January, the
members met again after adjournment
in a meeting from which the public
was excluded, and it was proposed that
as they had such good material from
a distance to draw from, they choose
some one in Prof. Norvel's place. Su-
perintendent Hatfield states he here
addressed the members and told them
that if they contemplated such change
on the superstition that he and Prof.
Norvel could not get al ong, they were
making a mistake, as he aud Prof.
Norvel got along like brothers. They
seemed determined, however, to make
a change, and chose Prof. E.G. Payne,
of Dixon, ILL.,, to succeed Prof. Nor
vel.
Superintendent Hatfield, in regard
to why the boa-d of education came
to the conolnsi ON any changes were
advisable in the schools at this time,
and what the members knew about
the applicants from other places that
led them to believe that they would
be improvements on the teachers to be
let out said that he did not know,
aud could only suppose That he had
no right to presume to know, but that
he supposed" they reached the con-
clusion that they would be making an
Improvement because of the creden-
tials the applicants brought, and the
appearance Of the men themselves.
Superintendent Hatfield declared he
had nothing to do with the teachers
dismissal, and simply wants the pub
lie to hear his side Of 1t. 81

have deciCed where they Will 20.
This recommendation met with the
approval of the board, and at the next
regular meeting, the members were
asked to remain after adjournment for
the transaction of business as COM
mittee Of the whole" Superinten-
dent Hatfield did not regard this meet
ing as secret" but admitted that the
reporters were asked to vaoate, and
that the proceedings were not made
public.
Il seems that before this, several
teachers in response to instructions
had been here to LOOK over the situa-
tion and see how they would like to
come TO Paducah. The night the ten
members Of he board fired the report
ers and took up the selection Of suc-
oeessor to Prof. Snider, there were the
names four or five applicants before
the board and all the members except
Trustees Gleaves and Msmmen were
present
1t was explained that Prof. snider
was not to apply for school here
again, and as the applicants for his
place who had been here were anxious
to know which would be selected, so
the others could look elsewhere for
Jobs, the board was asked to designate
which one would be chosen in June,
no election until June being legal
Prof. Sugg, of Henderson, was chosen.
They started to adjourn, when some
other member suggested that as they
had several other good names in the
hat, they place them in with that of
Miss Emma Morgan and draw to soc
whether they should select one in her
place or not. Superintendent Hatfield
says he here stated to the board that
it was a serious matter, and urged the
members to be careful what they did,
but that they proceeded, and Miss Nor
gan lost, not receiving single vote
after the drawing of the names. Prof
VIM Alexander. of Hopkinsville, on'
of the applicants for Prof. Snider''

Reported Some OF the Graduates Are
Talking OF "Going on
Strike"
sUPT. HATFIELD's STATEMENT

The action OF members OF the board
of education in agreeing to let out GER
tain teachers in the public schools has
caused great deal of discussion, and
now that the true reason why 1t was
decided TO let them go. is becoming
rumored some of the members of the
board are becoming defiant, and one
said today that he didn't care what the
public thought about 1t, that he did
what he wanted to and IL the public
didn't like it, 1t could beat him when
he runs for re. election.
There are various reports Of contem-
plated action on part Of the friends Of
the teachers. One is that the high
school classes, or some Of the members
are talking of refusing to graduate
this year unless fair play is promised
their teacher, Prof. @. A. Norvell.
This would leave the board OF educa-
ton in q very unusual and embArass-
mig predicament-t
Another report is that parents of
the High school pupils as well as the
pupils themselves, are to get up a Pc
tition to the board demanding the re-
tention of Prof. Norveli, which will
show conclusively how he is regarded
by them as teacher.
Today house to house canvass will

ing of Wednesday night, but would
not deny that grave fears are enter
tanned of further attacks. He pre-
ferred not to talk, but later admitted
that the situation is somewhat criti-
cal. Bushwhackers could pick of
guards If they desired, although the
Calling gun could riddle the hills and
route them IL not behind rocks or
trees. Troops have orders to fire at
the least hostile demonstration, and
the least misstep at this strained juno
ture would precipitate ugly results.

reporter that he desired to make
statement regarding reports he learned
since he returned home. were circu-
lated relative to his connection with
anything done by the school board.
Superintendent Hatfield said that
the report that he had anything to do
with the board deciding to get other
teachers was an error, that he didn't.
He threw a great deal Of light on
the recent meetings Of the board at
which the new teachers were decided
on. He stated that about November
he learned that Prof. Snider, OF the
Longfellow, was going to resign, as
he intimated as much in . paper he
then read before the teachers associa-
ton here. Superintendent Hatfield
took mp the matter Of securing a sue
cessor, and suggested to members Of
the board that instead of waiting to
find good man to take his place, steps
be taken at once to find one, so they
would not all be engaged before Prof.
sniders's term expired in June, by
which time most Of the best educators

ANOTHER SCHEME.
Jas. Reavis, Who Won Fame by His
Claim Of the Peralta Land
Grant the Originator.

James ("Peralta") Reasis, we'll
known in Santa Fe and famous in
connection with tie lost Spanish land
grant of So 00, GOO acres in Arizona
and New Mexico, is in Denver with a
new plan for making a fortune.
The idea which is to make Reayis q
millionaire in his old age is the con
troll and distribution of the underflow
water OF the ella and Salt rivers in
Arizona. II is a relic of the old land
grant. When Reavis was investigating
the grant in 1855, he stood at the ella
buttes and with prophetic eye saw a
quarter of a century ahead. when that
whole country should be ~populous AMI
productive by means of the distribu-
tion of the water for irrigation pur-
poses. So he agitated things with
reference to the land grant. but he
also took the precautions to file on
the water rights for the two rivers.
He let the grant go. because 1t was
too much trouble to establish his
claim, but he held to the water right
and believed all the time that the
day would come when the water right
would be the more valuable Of the
two. Now the time is at hand.
Reayis has decided his rights to most
of the surface water to the govern
ment to encourage the building of res
e~rvoirs, but he has held the under
flow rights. Under every river there
is an underiow through the sand that
is remarkable. Reavis will build dams
across and under the river and make
this underfow rise for irrigation pur-
poses. At two points it is 1000 cubic
feet per second. and will irrigate
100000 acres of land. The original
water right will be sold at $40 an
acre, which will bring in $1,000, 900.
Then the annual water rent will be
81 an acre. which will make an an.
nual income of $750,0O0. There are
two Of these places so that there will
be a total income Of 1880, 900. This
is not reckoning on the SIS, 900 900 for
the original water rights, for that will
be held up in building the two dams
Reavis Is 60 years old. His hair is
as white as snow. His eyes fash with
the hope Of his new plan, which shall
make him worth $4,000, 900, and then
he will retire to devote himself te
rearing his twin boys.

THE q. A.. r. PILGRIMAGE.
Large Number Of Pennsylvania veter
to Arrive This Afternoon to
Spend Several Hours.

At 5 o'clock this afternoon a spe-
cial train running as the second sec.
ton Of No. l is expected from the
north. 1t is laden with 26O Pennsyl.
vania veterans, most OF them from
Pittsburg. The old soldiers are, OF
course, on their way to attend the
G. A. r. national encampment in San
Francisco. They will remain in the
city until late this evening, taking
supper either at the Montezuma or
the Castaneda.
The local G. A. r. men have made
preparations to receive the visitors
and will escort them to the springs.
It was expected that the train would
arrive at 1880 this afternoon, but 1t
was delayed. The veterans will, how,
ever, have time to get a daylight
glimpse Of the city and OF the Hot
Springs
G. A. r. men and their families are
seen on every train from the north.
The old soldiers are readily distin.
guishable. Scarcely n but bears the
stamp Of the soldier. All are gray.
haired, but 1t Is not that. Nearly all
are erect in their bearing, despite the
weight Of years, many have boards
and mustaches Of military cut: but Il
Is not by such marks that the old sol.
der is known. There Il an indenn.
able something about the man who
has struck hard blows in defense Of
his country that makes its impress
