PARKERsBuRG. July 2s-Another
act ia the school drama VIII be Wit
messed at the regular meeting Of the
board of education. 1t win likely be
more interesting than those Of the
past, as some entertaining features
are promised.
Accepting the opinions Of Attorneys
van winkle and Watson as final, it is
said that Prof. D. c. Tabler has been
carrying on the work Of superintend,
eut. just the same as II he had been
regularly elected, and that he will pre-
sent the names of the teachers he
would have the board elect for the en-
suing year.
Whether he will be recognized by
the president as the superintendent is
a question, and those familiar with the
situation do not think he will be. Qalte
to the contrary, it is expected that
President Bullock will make the declar.
alton that the once Of superintendent
is vacant and win have the opinions
Of able lawyers to substantiate his
claim.
1t will be recalled that when Prof.
Tabler submitted the written opinion
of Mr.. Van winde and had Mr.. Wat
son give his verbal opinion the board
failed to elect a successor at the first
regular meeting. that President Bul.
lock advised the board to adjourn un-
til tonight, stating that there should
be time in which to examine the legal
status.

an attempted robbery on upper Eighth
avenue in which George Glendenning.
the seventeen year old son Of VIM. D

Yesterday morning about three

awakened by the drop of some liquid

she was startled to see boy standing

She screamed but her husband did
not awaken. He had been exposed
to the ethertzing drug before his wife
and it required both loud screaming

1t was then that the daring burglar
ran from the house, and as he jump

COUNTY REVERSED ITSELF
AND REFUSED TO GIVE

CHARLESTON, July 26.-The coan.
ty court Of Raleigh county reversed
itself on ruling made. a few days ago
and quashed the application of eight
large coal companies in that county
that were praying forrelief from erron-
eous taxation. The petition of the coal
companies were argued by prominent
attorneys, but the court sustained the
motion Of A. A. Lilly, for the State,
that the petitions be dismissed because
they were not fled at the time speci::
fed by the statue. The tax laws place
larger assessments on leaseholds and
the operators claim that the valuations
are excessively high.

think he is rich and handsome, coax
his wife to run away with you, or
sell him dog, but you will never
make him think a gray horse is not q
jewel. read somewhere recently
that gray horses were not up to the
standard. or words to that effect. I
never was so astonished in my life
I have always thought, and do now
that gray or white horses were the
handsomest, toughest breeds on the
planet.
The celebrated Arabian horses are
white or dapple gray. Famous gen.
erals in all wars have ridden white
or iron gray chargers. Circus men
select gray horses to draw the band
wagons in street parades. A great
packing company always selects Per
cheron horses. not so much for the
color, but because their feet will
stand travelling on the pavements bet.

that Joan Of Arc rode a milk white
horse, and st. John, the reyelator,
saw white horse in heaven (Rev 6

Aroostook are white or gray, and an
other decade will see 90 per cent. OF
them OF that color. Lewiston (Me.)
