At the final meeting of the present board
OF education. held last evening in the
Franklin School building. resolutions were
adopted commencing the work OF Presi-
dent Gordon and Mr.. A. r. Stuart. superin-
tendent of schools. The members Of the
board also took official leave of one an
other. offering mutual congratulations and
Fluctuations.
In brief address President Gordon
thanked the members for their unfaiiing
courtesy and the confidence that they had
always manifested in him. He said the six
years be had spent as member of the
board was time full of pleasure. With
the exception OF the past year he said the
work OF the board had been conducted
smoothly. While the members differed con-
scientfously at times. he declared there
were no feelings of enmity In the hearts
OF any of them.
President Gordon also spoke highly of the

friendly relations that had always existed
between him and the members Other
speeches OF similar nature were made.
In view of the announced decision to take
up nothing that would properly be the work

was transacted last evening. After con-
siderable discussion of the proposition To

NAL school to positions as teachers the
majority of the board questioned the legal
ity OF such appointments and compromised
by recommending their appointment to the
incoming board.

The Crime Of Color.

From the New York Sun.
The prejudice against certain pigment
of the skin Is particularly idiotic when d.
rected against a member of great pa
trieian race. descendants OF those Early
Aryans" with whom conjecture has long
been so busy Hindu Is merely eau
casian "of the brunette type" Mislike him
not for his complexion. the shadowed livery
of the FURNISHED sun.
A Caucasian in New York despising q
fellow Caucasian for his color Is as prepos-
ferrous as men are most OF the time. But
IL a pap-headed British ensign. still not
without secret longfngs for loliipop. looks
down upon the ''niggers" Of Hindustan. 1t
Ia not surprising some New Workers are
equally supercilious. AS rule the Hindu
visitors to New York are noticeable, as
they are In Paris or London. for the dis
tinction of their appearance. .
Whether this be truth or aiiegory. II
suggests an insoiuble and a mournfui prop
lem. Why do yellow men hate OF de-
spfse white men and white mon yellow?
why should negroes bear the curse. as
It is from the white mans standpoint and
from that Of many negroes? lngralned
and innate as these prejudices Of color
against color are. they are In themselves
essentially absurd. The chocolate coiored
savage thinks the white mans hue rfdicu-
ious. To the eye OF pure reason. IL there
were any reason and had an eye to see
with. both colors and every color might De

Russian Duel by Suicide.
From the London Globe

From the London Globe.
A tragedy. romantic on the surface but In
reality throwing @ repulsive light on the
hollowness Of life in Russia, Is reported
from Moscow.
Two young Poles named Nidetzki and
Komorovsky, attending a ball given by
Count Feodorovo. were both SO smitten
with the beauty of the counts daughter
that, though friends from boyhood, they
at once became deadly enemies and before
the ball was half over had determined upon
a duel to the death by that most strange
but most deadly of all methods-the suicide
of one of the combatants. 1t was decided
that the loser of game Of ecarte should
kill himself. and toward the end OF the
ball the infatuated pair went to the card
room for their game at death. In few
minutes Komorocky had lost, and, quietly
drawing a revolver he shot himself through
the heart. Nidetzky took the first express
for Berlin.
AS for The fair cause of the tragedy she
was so little impressed that within few
days she had accepted proposal from a
Russian nobleman.

London's Lost Gorilla.

From the st. James Gazette
Poor Martha! She has passed from the
tribulations of an uncongenial world to hang
by the tail. we trust. in some Paradise OF
apes. For Martha was the last of the
gordllas that the zoo has vafnly tried to
foster. Arriving moribund she was spared
no delicacy or attention that could fan a
htful spark of vitality into steady flame.
Night and day they watched and tended her
But either the shock of the voyage had been
too much for her or the poor soul beat so
hard against the bars Of captivity that the
small heart was broken. At least she has
followed Venus and Chloe and Miss Growth
or. and the zoo must now search for some
more fortunate successor. Martha's Is In
ded a tragic loss, for gorlllas are as scarce
as they are difficult to keep healthy IN cap
tivfty. They are attractive beasts, despite
their reputation. and we look forward to
the success at Regents Park. which we are
sure. Is only postponed by this series of dis
asterS.

ABSOLUTE DEADLOCK
coNFEREEs FAIL TO AGREE ON
THE MEAT AMENDMENT.

An absolute deadlock on the meat inspec-
tion amendment to the agricultural appro-
prttion bill was reported by Senator
Proctor to the Senate late yesterday.
after three sessions OF the conferees had
been held The Vermont senator said that
the House conferees had declined to con-
slider any compromise on the subject Of the
payment Of the cost OF inspection by the
packers.
The Senate conferees offered to compro-
mise" he said. upon a tax of cents
head on cattle and 5 cents on hogs sheep
and goats. to be collected and covered into
the treasury the same as an yother reve-
nuesA He read the compromise PROPOSE
tton. showing that the 100000 appropria-
ton provided by the House would remain
In the bill and the cost OF inspection would
be paid therefrom. In reply to q question
from Senator Hale he stated that the tax
would amount to about one-hak Of the APP
preparation.
The third conference of the day had been
concluded short time before Senator Proc
tor made his statement At that confer
ence he offered the compromise proposition,
which was met by the House conferees
with the argument that 1t would be uncon-
stitntional on the ground that Congress had
no authority to levy direct tax upon
chattels.
In making his statement Senator Proctor
said the conferees had agreed on practi-
cally all items, but that the House con-
ferees had positively refused to consider
any compromise. He then related the par
ticulars OF the provision regarding the cost
of inspection. and added that the House
conferees had absolutely declined to sign
the report unless the House provision should
be accepted letter for letter. He said the
effect OF the position taken by the House
would be to cause the failure of the legis-
lation and the general arrest of business.
Responding to question by Senator Nell
son Mr.. Proctor said that nothing had been
said regarding the date on canned meats.
I'VE didn't reach it." he said. They in
sisted on their entire provision; there was
| no chance for a compromise on anything"
Mr.. Hale then spoke of the gravity of
the situation and advised that the Senate
| refrain from further comment that might
excite feeling. my impression Is that we
will do well to leave 1t over night where
1t is. and that we should do nothing to in
fame the situation. in the hope that bet
ter counses will prevail tomorrow
Il see nothing better to do" asserted Mr..
Proctor: 1.-THE House conferees refuse posi-
lively to Join in any report"
Senators Hemenway and Hopkins objected
to giving in the Senate details of what had
occurred in the conference because the
House representatives could not be present
to defend their own position.
Mr.. Proctor replied that he had only
ate conferees had exercised the greatest
amiability In dealing with the House rep
resentatives.
Mr.. Hale then,s In pursuance OF his sug-
gestion to let the matter He over. moved
an adjournment. but he subsequently with
drew the motion In order to permit an
executive session.

Moose In Bangor Streets
From the Bangor News.

On Friday morning at about o'clock, as
Charles H. Potter was coming down CO.
iumbia street and had reached a point in
front Of Kellys plumbing shop, he saw a
strange animal trotting along toward him
from the direction of Hammond street. In
the dim light 1t looked at little distance
like a mule, but as 1t came nearer Mr. Pot
ter recognized 1t as q half grown cow
moose. He stamped upon the sidewalk and
the animal. taking alarm. ran into the yard
on the west side of the Baptist church.
Finding. however, that there was no es-
cape in that direction. the moose came out
again and ran through Columbia street at
great speed and disappeared up Hammond
street. Mr.. Potter told Patrolman Sproul
about 1t. and so the news circulated AS
Mr. Potter travels daily through a country
where moose abound. there Is no likelihood
of his being mistaken in his Identification of
one OF the species at close quarters
On Friday a farmer living in the suburbs
of Bangor reported that young COW
moose. presumably the same that visited
the downtown streets. had browsed in his
pasture Thursday evening. where several
persons had seen the animal.

Maine Treasure Trove.
N,,, naoo,r

The announcement that several barrels
OF bottled beer and ale had been dumped
into the river near the Brewer bridge by a
frightened driver early Thursday morning
to avoid the liquor deputies was the cause
for the assembling of a large multitude on
the middle span of the bridge shortly after
daylight, who looked down with hungry
eyes and moist lips at what was hidden be-
Meath the turbulent flood.
Desperate ones laid aside their clothing
and began to dive to see what they could
find, and before the day was over two bar
rels of bottled ale had been recovered and
gingerly split among the gang. They are
still at it, and IL anything remains In the
bottom of the river 1t will not be for want
of arduous and enthusiastic endeavor on
the part of several in behalf of thrift and
recovery
