school board was held for the pur-
pose of giving attention to several
important matters left over from the

school rooms. wherever repair work
is needed, was discussed at length,

will probably be repapered.

was arranged as follows;
Fail term begins September .;
ends December %.
Winter term begins January >

rooms will be necessary. II was de
cided to present a proposition to the
congregational meeting of the Con
gregational church on next Wednes-
day evening. at which time final ac-
ton will probably be taken in the
matter.

certaining If he is qualified to teach

PROCEEDINGS INSTITUTED
Bv Venezuelan Authorities Against
French Cable Co. For Damages.

New York, July 19.-The Venezue :
ian authorities, have. according to a
Herald dispatch from Caracas, inst1-
tuted proceedings against the French
Cable Co. for da nages incurred By the
government for the cOmpany's alleged
participation in the Matos revolution.
This is a different action than that de-
cided against the company, March 81,
which resulted in declaring the COM
pany's concession rull and void and
assessing it in damage for failure to
fulfil the terms of the contract.
Cablegrams form n large part of the
evidence claimed to be in possession
of the authorities. According to COM
mon report they We're taken from the
cable office by an operator. They were
first offered to the French legation
for sale, but the purchase was declin-
ed, after which they were sold to Gen
Castro.
1t was the common belief that the
French minister, Charles Weiner, left
Venezuela for Paris in May for. the
purpose of settling the matter, but
nothing has come of it and the long
deferred suit has begun.

WEDNESDAYS WEATHER.
Hot, With Two Showers-Great Elec
trical Display in the Evening.

Wednesday was what might be called
good warm weather, but the heat was
Dy no means extreme. BY o'clock in
the morning, the mercury indicated 75
degrees, but the humidity in the at
mosphere was very disagreeable and
many thought that the day would be
one OF the hottest Of the season. Al
noon, however, the mercury had only
risen to Sc, which was the highest
reached for the day. Soon after II
O'Clock. the city was visited by n slight
thunder shower which cooled the air,
causing the temperature to drop 10 de-
grces in about an hour. Later it rose
to 80 degrees, where it stood at 4.3O p.
NJ, and from which point it gradually
fell as the day drew to 4 close.
Shortly before $50, the second show
er Of the day occurred. The coming of
the shower could be seen in the dis
lance, beginning far to the north and
gradually working nearer. The cleo
trical display was perhaps the greatest
ever seen in this vicinity, the distant
flashes in the northeast being, for
long period, almost continuous. All
these were behind the storm clouds,
and only the reflection could be seen
locally.
But AS the storm came nearer, the
distant flashes, and long broken chains
of light across the sky made a specta-
Gle worth watching. One chain in the
east seemed nearly a quadrant in
length, and another in the southwest
left a distinct trail of sparks in the
sky. The light of fire in the north
west was observable from the upper
stories of the Journal building. but in
quiry failed to locate the blaze.
The rainfall. though brisk while at
lasted. was not equal to that Of Tues
day afternoon. All who We're depend
ent on electric lights were bothered for
Is or 20 minutes. the circuit being sew
eral times cut out, but quickly re-
stored when the shower had passed.
The trolley service was also suspend
ed during the heaviest of the electri-
cal storm, but the delay was not sutfi-
cient to cause great annoyance.
