time, so much more would the schools benefit.
 Commissioner Phelan objected to any change. All over the country. ne said, the boards of education are elected by the people. When men don't perform their duty right they are disposed of by the people very auickly. The people are better aatis- ded with the result of an election han by any selection of any repge- sentatives of any party. The scho0la are taken better care of by elected
 ien than they would be by selected men. It is poor policy, anyway. t0 propose a change.
 COmmission Griggs did not favor the bill in it's present garb, but he dia favor some change that woIila ise bring ih a new lot of men at one tlfne to manage the schools. He would Sa- yor electing two from each party each year. This would make the board non-partisan, with the deciding vote in the chairman.

THE STORMS FURY SPENT.
Small Blizzard Parayzed Business Throughout New England About One and Half Feet of Snow in Twenty-Four Hours Trolley Traffic and Steam Railroads
 Felt The Effects of the Storm

New Haven, Dec 13.-The blizzard which beg II sAortly after noon yes- terday, seriously impeding trolley traffic and team railroad business during the night, still ragged this morning with unabated strength. Up to 8 o'cl,.k 11lin IS of snow had fallen in this city, according to the official measurement At the weath- CT bureau station 1t was said that in all probability snow would not cease falling before the early afternoon, so that the storm would be of 24 hours continuous duration. The wind at o'clock was blowing at IS miles an hour
 On all tho lines of the New York, New Haven & Hartford railroad, in the southern part of Connecticut, trains were moving this morning, but all were behind their schedules. III some instances trains were reported two hours late at the Union station here. Persistent battling with the drifts through the night enabled the management of the local trolley sys- tenn to declare all their lines open to- day, but no attempt was made to run according to the regular time tables. Tn all parts of the state traffic con- ditions were disastrously affected by the storm

NAN FACES IT.
AnOth CT Skeleton Produced in the Patterson
 Trial.

New York, Dec 13 A headless hu, man skeleton. dpfsai vertebras and ribs, played an important part in the trial Of Nan Patterson for the murder iofs Caesar Young, yesterday The ex, hibits were made use of In the ex. planation of Dr Philip O'Hanlon the coroner's physician, who performed the autopsy on Young's body. Miss Pattersorl's counsel protested at the use Of the skeleton. asserting that it did not compare correctly with the structure of the dead mans boy, but his objections were overTuled.
 The skeleton was used to decide the course of the bullet after 1t entered Young's body. The prosecution con tended that 1t had gone straight to the spine, thus proving that Young did not kill himself. Assuming that Young with the pistol in, his right hand had crossed 1t over to his chest and shot into his left side, the prosecution con tended that the bullet would have trav- leled to the left. The fact that it flew straight inwards to the spine they al, lege as conclusive evidence that the wound was not seIfrinfiicted
 TH O'Hanlon was positive that the bullet had taken straight course to the right.
 Lawyer Levy, for the defense, tried to gain an admission that the muscu- lar covering of the ribs at the point of entrance of the bullet may have de- flected in its course, but Dr O'TIanlon declared there had been no dehection until the bullet had struck the spine.
 When MT Levy asked Dr O'FIanlon If he had not at first deciared the case to be a suicide, the prosecutors object ed and the objection was sustained. Dr O'Hanlon testified that he had found powder marks on Young's fln- gers. His testimony as to the course of the bullet was coTroborated by Dr RigiTls of the Hudson street hospital.
 Justice Davis said from the bench that gross impropriety had been com. nlitted by Il newspaper in publishing what purported to be the views of the wives of the jurors concerned in tIe case. He cautioned the Jurors not to discuss the testimony even in their own families, He said that the iTlteg- rity of the jury box must be main tained and that he felt satisfied that such meretricious methods on the part of q newspaper must be and will be condemned by all.

PARCELS POST PLAN.
Robert ], Wpnns Wopid Utilize Free { Eolivery Rouses.

Washington. Dec 13.-Among the recommendations made by Postmaster iGeneraI Robert J. Wynne in the de. Fpartment's annual report is one that congress fix d rate of 2 cents per pound, or any fractional part thereof, on packages not exceeding five pounds mailed at the distributing postof1ee of any rural free delivery route for deliv- cry to n patron on said route, this to apply only to packages deposited at the local postoffice for delivery to pa- rons on route emanating from that office, and not to mall transmitted from one office to another. l with the establishment of rural mall delivery and the increasing exten- sion of rural telephone service by pri- vate interests f says MT Wynne, there has grown up demand by the pa irons of the rural service for the delivs cry of small packages of merchandlse, such as foodstuffs, tobacco, dry goods, drugs, etc, on an order to the local mer- chant by postal card. telephone or oth- erWise. The value of these packages of merchandise is usually small, ana the present rate of postage of I cenA per ounce is practically prohibltive.
 'The patron or merchant cannot af- ford to pay 16 cents for the delivery ot a pound of coffee or tobacco, or similar article, but if a special rate were es tablished ou such matter from the dis tributing office for delivery to any pa tron on the rural routes from that of flee it would be a great convenience to the patrons and become a source or revenue to the department.
 "The rate of ! cents per pound would be ample remuneration for the depart ment, because there is no expense for railway transportation, and the sys tenn by which these packages are to be delivered is already established, and such delivery would entail no addition al expense upon the department. A special stamp could be provided for this class of mail matter.''
 The sending Of any explosive or in- fiammable matter or any poisonous animal through the mails Is prohibited by postal laws and regulations, but no penalty Is provided for violation of this regulation. Live tarantulas, snakes and scorpions, loade drevolvers md other explosives are continually inter. cepted in the mails and consigned to the dead letter office museum, 1t ap pears. and the secretary thinks ade. quate punishment should be provided for those who thus recl1lessly endanger the lives of mail clerks.
