SCHOOL REGISTER

State Board of Education Will
Hear Investigating Commit
tees Report Thursday.

Some decidedly interesting developments
are expected at the adjourned meeting
Of the State Board OF Education at thu
rooms OF the Depa rtmcnt Of Public In
structon next Thursday. The board will
at that time convene at the call Of the
special committee appointed at the recent
meeting to seek other evidence bearing
on the contract for the publication OF
the school register and the ownership of
that publication.
The fact that this committee, consist
Ing OF Attorney General Anderson. DR..
Lyon G. Tyler and Mr.. John T. West. has
called a meeting is ofitsef sufficient war
rant that these gentlemen have found
evidence sufficiently important to war
rant further inquisition into the ques-
ton OF the connection OF any member
X OF the State Board Of Education or OF
any employe In the school register.
It is known from other sources that
the committee has secured documentary
evidence in the form Of letters and pa
pers. books, receipts. etc. that In their
opinion are important, and 1t can fur
Their be stated as fact that oral tes-
timony will be offered to explain and
sustain the showing made by the docu-
ments In evidence. 1t is practically Ger
tain that this evidence will show posi-
lively either that Mr.. Thomas was the
sole owner OF the publication or that
he was not at some time in the past.
Those who know decline to give out any
more definite information, and. in fact,
any information at all. much OF that
cleaned being from the differences which.
however. are inevitable.
The board will convene Thursday
morning. and will probably sit all OF
that day and possibly not conclude that
evening. 1t Is expected that the con-
illusions reached will be given to the
public.

Bra treet's: While the recent
storm did no. in any particular
direction produce such striking
or spectacular results as did the
famous blizzard Of March, 1888,
IN the vicinity Of New York, there
can be no doubt that this weeks
disturbance affected a far wider
area and did more real damage.
Its probable that the develop
ment of facilities of communication
in the interval since the earlier
visitation has contributed to pre-
vent the power of the elements
being so severity felt. Leaving
out of consideration all sugges-
tions of this kind, however, IT ma y
be said without hesitation that
this part Of the country has pass
ed through one of the most Sc
we're storms of recent years, and
that but for the Development OF
the means, of transportation that
marks the world of to-day, the
effects would be much more ser1,
Gus than they have turned out to
be.

A Sarcastic Minister.

Once young preacher IN Scot

station with small salary was ap-
pointed to the chaplaincy of a Jail.
On the Sunday previous to leaving
his charge and before he began
his sermon he announced the fact
and said that he had three rea-
sons for his departure. ''In the
first place. he said, II leave you be-
cause you do not love God, for very
few of you come regularly to
church. In the second place, you
do not love one another, for there
have been no marriages among you
during the three years / have been
your minister, and in the third place
you do not love me, for you con-
tribute very little to the small IN

BOYS LOVE SHOWS WEAK MIND
Study BEING Made in the New York
Public Schools.

The development of the attec-
tions has been made the test OF
child's sanity IL the public schools
By the board of education. If
dainty Flossy, with her Haxen
curls aud laughing eyes, walks
past the desks of Tom, Dick and
Harry without a single mothers
son of them gazing adorlngly at
her, then these dogs are Q. *. d.
But if, on the other hand, Tom
is unable to subdue his lncrea aslng
fondness, and IN moment OF
forgetfulness puts his arm about
Flossie's waist and kisses her, his
time has come, and it's to the
backward class" for him.
This has been the fate Of scores
of unfortunate youths IN the New
York public schools. For four
years the test has been tried aud
the classes. are rapidly increasing.
1t is each teachers duty to make
a note of every display of this kind
I that she sees and report it to DR..
EBrann, of the board OF education.
/ DR.. Brann's sole business is testing
Ichildren sanity and classifying
them.
Affection" says DR.. Brann,
in a superintendent proportion
is a sure sign of feeblemindedness.
If a child rushes wildly into the
1room and throws his arms about
the teacher, declaring his most
violent love for her, then that
child needs watching. 1t is ar
unnatural performance.
1 "For this reason we have hac
to segregate boys and girls of the
backward classes. The boy:
sometimes love the girls almos
to distraction. In the middle O.
recitation a boy will jump from
his seat, for some indehnlt'
reason, and embrace his prett,
little girl neighbor. This reall,,
is one of our strongest proofs o
feeblemindedness.
