JERSEY CITY, Sept. 22.-Twenty-
three teachers of the Jersey City public
schools have resigned for ''better or
for worse" Their designations were
handed to the board of education Some
were dated early in the summer vaca-

signed Mrs" with the necessary

resigner. One young teacher, who spent
the summer at the seashore, wrote thus
to the board of education:
"While l have enjoyed my stay at
the school and feel that my duties were
to help the dear children, whom l love
so tenderly, still another voice bids me
leave these pleasant tasks and enter
upon more toilsome and responsible
duty on the morning of September s.,

The board accepted her resignation
with a standing vote and hearty
cong ngratulations. The twenty-five others
wrote in a more or less similar vein,

the rails of the Salt Lake tracks and

a bystander At that time Constable
Newell took her in charge and for
time nothing was heard of her.
In her time the woman has caused
the arrest of score of people for
abusing her. while she herself has been
in custody countless number of times.
