Our entrance had been so sudden, due

NOT TOO SENTIMENTAL.

There is still some foolish talk that
Woman is too sentimental to act as she
ought to in meetings, debates, etc. but
those who so talk are as much behind
the times as Woman is ahead of them.
What Woman can do and how she can
carry herself is illustrated by what
happened at the International Wo-
mems Congress, sitting in Paris the
other day. The ladies' were in solemn
conclave when suddenly there appeared

ladies were too perturbed to identify
it, but after a moment of benumbing
silence the president rallied, and in an
icy tone identified it as "a man Then

after explaining 20 NJ. Legendre, in
tones of cold, calm severity that the

not confer the right of entry to that

No sentiment there. We verify be-

The Inspection of the Scranton Street

TO Editor Of tho journal and courier:

To Editor Of the Journal and Courier:
The attention Of the undersigned was
called to an article published in the
New Haven Union of Saturday even
ing, June 30, having the following: A
local taxpayer called attention to-day
to what he considered willful extrava-
gance in the inspection of the Scranton
street school-house. He pointed out
that in the first place there was the
architect Of the board OF education en-
ployed to construct the building, Mr..
Won Beren. Then there is city Build
ing Inspector Austin whose salary is
$1,SOO per annum. Next may be men,
toned Inspector of School Buildings
Maloney of the board Of education, en-
ployed at a salary of S1,50O per year,
And lastly Anthony Carroll is en-
ployed as a special inspector at a sala-
ny Of $3.50 per day.
Said the citizen: why not put on
two or three more inspectors on this
building? Wouldn't one Inspector a
thorough-golng man in his business, be
sufficient? Here we have four high
priced inspectors all doing practically
the same thing. Where is our econo-
my under such circumstances? ?"
The undersigned has always advoca-
ted that it was the duty of all citizens
and taxpayers to interest themselves
in securing good government, and that
the acts of all government officials, il
found necessary for criticism, to criti.
