SANTA ROSA, Aug. 6.-The Sonoma
County Board of Education, which has
been investigating the charges of i'm
moral conduct against Principal Walter
c. Nolan of the Sonoma city schools,
preferred by Dr.. Alfred E. Byron of that
city. straddled the question of his in
nocence or guilt and adopted the fol-
lowing non-committal resolution to-
night:
Resolved, That the Sonoma County
Board Of Education, having heard and
matter of the charges of unprofes-
sional conduct against Walter c. No
Ian Ian OF Sonoma q is of the opinion that
this board to recommend the reYoca-
ton of the life diploma of said w. c.
Nolan.
The members of the board who were
present and voted for the resolution
were the County Superintendent, Miss
Minnie Coulter; the City Superintendent
of Schools, Z. Morris Cox of Santa
Rosa; Leander Good of Sebastopol and
H. R. Bull of Healdsburg.
Nolan is the fifth member of the
board, but was not present during the
consideration Of the verdict. He is not
satisfied with the finding, as he had
confidently expected an acquittal In
his defense he had called witnesses to
prove his whereabouts as well as that
of the girls at the times when he was
charged with being in their presence
and also to prove the absolute unrelia-
bility of DR.. Byron. He and his
friends were satisfied that this was
sufficient to secure a vindication at the
hands of the board.
Principal Nolan was vindicated by
the Trustees of the Sonoma School some
time since, after thorough investiga-
ton, and resumed his teaching there
two weeks ago for the ensuing year. He
is prominently connected and has a host

on Voyage of Discov-
cry to Unknown North
SCIENTIST ABOARD

PORTLAND, Aug. 6-By this time
the Anglo American polar expedition
is we'll on the way in the Arctic seas.
In letter received in Portland today,
dated at Port Clarence, on July 90,
Ejnar Mikkelsen, who has charge of
the expedition, says the vessel would
sail that night for the unknown north.
The steamer is the Duchess of Bed
ford, which had been used as a whaler.
Among the head officials of the party
is Ernest LefhRgweH, Chicago
scientist.
month or more ago the steamer
set out from Unalaska for the Siberian
coast to secure dog teams. 1t was the
intention of the party to stop en- route
and make an examination OF the new
island which appeared recently near
the Pribyloff group. but Mikkelsen
says the winds were unfavorable and
seas rough, and 1t was decided to
abandon the idea. Efrecting a LANDING 8
at the st. Lawrence Island he ex-
plains, they found the natives to be
hard up for boating gear. and he sue
ceeded In striking a bargain for all
of the dogs needed. After a trade was
completed the steamer went through
the Bering Straits and on to Port
Clarence without rnishap, although the
weather was extremely rough.
1t is probable that this will be the
last message received from the ex-
plorers until they again return to the
outskirts Of civilization. which will be
something like two or three years.
