Meeting Of Directors of Northern League
VIII Be Held Soon to Decide on
Schedule, Which Will Be
Started Early.

Burlington, Feb. 2s.--The outlook for
the Northern Base Ball League appears
very encouraging at the present time.
T. K. Milne stated yesterday that Rut-
land, Barre and Montpelier, Plattsburgh,
Montreal and Burlington were ready to
join the league, and that Malone is as
yet undecided. st. Albans will come in
on only one condition, and that is TO
receive per cent on games away from
home.
Mr.. Milne also stated that there would
be meeting OF the directors in about
10 days, and that they would probably
decide to open the season about the
30th Of May. He explained that an
early opening would add only a little
to the expense for players, and that
Montreal greatly favored this move.
He has already received letters from
some of the former members of the
Burlington team, expressing their wish
to return to this city the coming sea-
son.

Qualifications of Parish Superin-
fendenfS.

Qualifications Of Parish Superin-
tendents.
The State Board of Education,
at its meeting Friday laid down
the following as the qualifications
and requirements of a parish
superintendent of schools:
First. he must be a practical
educator; and the Board laid
down the test that as proof of
his practical qualities he must be
able to acquire a first grade
teachers certificate.
Second. he must devote his
time to his educational work.
Where salaries are high, he
must devote all his time to the
obligations imposed by his ac-
ceptance of his commission.
Under no circumstances. how
ever small the salary allowed
him for the necessities of life,
must he accept the salary and
assume the liabilities unless he
is prepared to devote. at the
minimum, twO-thirds of his time
to the work which he accepts If
he doesn't like the pay, he need
not take the work. He shall not
slur or shirk it once accepted"
The Baton Rouge Times COM
menting upon the action of the
Board says:
There is not a parish in
Louisiana in which the work of
the superintendent of education
does not justify at least 500 a
month pay, and we would like to
see that the minimum salary, on
the theory that a man who can't
earn that much at something else
is hardly a proved competent
guide or executive in the educa-
ton of the youth. But whether
salaries be low or high, no man
who is by temperament and ca
pacity fit for the position of
The Lafayette advertiser. [volume] (Vermilionville [i.e. Lafayette], La.) 1865-19??, 1905-11-29

parish education ought to accept
such a position unless he be pre-
pared to make the work the main
purpose of his life.
The duties of the position are
too sacred to be trifled with, the
obligations too vital to public in
terest and human welfare to be
lightly assumed or lightly borne,
and the State Board last night
did notably splendid work in de-
claring that the honorable Office
of parish superintendent of edu-
cation must be placed on an alb
sOlutely educational basis.

Hon. w. @. Cole, Insurance
Commissioner of Mississippi,
this evening gave out an address
to the people of Mississippi re-
lative to the "shake-up" now in
progress in New York, caused
by the insurance investigation.
Mr.. Coles address is calculated
to reassure the policy holders in
the three companies now under
investigation. He expresses alb
solute cofidence in the companies
and their ability to meet all obi
cations and urges policy holders
not to drop their policies. The
address follows:
I'm view of the uneasiness
among policy holders, engen-
dered by the reports of the
legislative Investigation of life
insurance companies now in
New York city. and of the posi-
bility that many may allow their
policies to lapse, or may sellthem
to spectators at q ruinQus dis
count on their actual value, I deeui
it my duty to call the attention of
all Mississippi policy holders to
the fact that the financial condi-
ton of the Equitable, Mutual
Life, and the New York Life In
companies is sound
that they are absolutely solvent
and there has not been, nor is
there now, any question as to
their ability to carry out every
contract as fast as said
contracts may mature. What

Council q Meeting
Short and Sweet

The regular meeting Of the
city council Monday night was
like a Tennessee girl s courtship
very short but awful sweet.
There were three newspaper re-
5porters, one OF whom snored so
loud that. he became a disturber
Of the peace. There was a small
grist of bills which went through
without a protest, and the re-
port Of City Justice Henry was
approved.
The council then listened to
the remarks Of Silver Serumgard,
:H. S. sDingle and III. M. Gray re-
5latiye to the enforcing Of certain
ordinances. No conclusions were
reached, and after the council
adjourned the matter developer
into a social talk in which sever
al phases Of the social evil were
discussed, all agreeing that il
should be suppressed, the only
difference being whether it
should be kept within bounds in
isolated places, or driven from
them to faunt itself in the very
heart Of the city.

Horse Rides
LIN AutOfllob bile

County Judge Mayhood had
an experience this week he does
not care to repeat, at least not
until he gets over the fright he
experienced on this occasion.
He was taking a travelling man
to Churchs Ferry in his bulb
ble0 in the evening, and was
moving along the road at q
merry clip, and when on a grade
near Maza came abruptly upon a
team which was evidentaly rum
ming away. The distance was
too short to stop. and the grade
too narrow to turn out, and like
two teams trying to pass on the
same track The rigs came to-
gether. One Of the horses jump
ed clear into the auto, somewhat
bruising the judge and somewhat
demoralizing the machine. FITS
presumed that one of the horses
is running yet, but the other one
was caught about a mile from
where the accident happened.
It was a narrow escape for
both the driverof the team, Billy
MCGEE, and the genial Judge,
the auto driver, but luckily
neither were seriously hurt, and
a few dollars expended will re.
pair the bubble.
