DR.. CHANCELLOR STRIKES
BLOW AT THE BOARD
lcontlnued from First Pagel

Continued from FIRST RdBeJ
MI such duties for which he may have
the written authorization Of the super
irtendent of public schools
This summary action on the part OF
the superintendent in thus endeavOring
TO shift authority from Assistant Super
intendent Hughes to Secretary Hine,
follows perhaps as a natural conse-
quence TO the letter which he addressed
TO the Commissioners two days ago,
protesting that Mr.. Hughes and the
board had exceeded authority in a re-
cent heduisition for textbooks, and had
wasted the public funds.
This letter was today sent without
recommendation or comment by the
COmniss .Oners TO the Board Of Educa-
tlon. Commissioner West under whose
supervision the schools come. declined
10 discuss the letter further than TO
say mat the board had authority to
purchase such books and other supplies
as II deemed necessary for the proper
education OF Washington children. Com
missioner Macfarland Concurred with
Mr.. West In this opinion.
Did Not Refer to Oyster.
Attorney Creed Fulton. Of counsel for
the superintendent during his troubles
withe the board. said this morning, In
reply 10 Captain Oysters defense Of the
board position IN the teXt-b book matter,
published in The Times yesterday:
II regret that Captain oyster should
take these matters as applying TO him
self personally and enter Into persOnali-
ties when there IS no necessity for
same"
The whole matter is a elimination
of the differences begun in committee
meeting last June between the super
intcndeut and Mr.. Evermann, a member
of the board. as 70 who should really
have the say as 10 the selection OF
the text books. At this meeting the su-
periutendent entered a heated protest
that $4,000 of the current appropriation
for text books had been expended be-
fore he was even given n chance to
make a recommendation regarding same
Recommendations Thrown Out.
The argument between the superin-
tendent and Mr. Evermann was heated,
and although the superintendent at
that time received some recognition in
the matter OF text book selection, it Is
significant that the board. through some
unknown influence. threw out at It's
October meeting in toto the recon-
mendations OF the superintendent as to
Wha text books should be purchased.
Tho differences still exist
The superintendent merely charges
that the board and Mr.. Hughes exceeded
authority IN ordering text books about
which he was not consulted. as II IS
evidently proper that he should have
been. as ne Is responsible for the schools
OF the District. A portion Of the books
so ordered there was little need Cor.
He only desires a chance TO be heard
and I trust that he will be allowed e
tell his story in full when his trial I,

 Among articles advertised within a few days as having been found on subway or elevated trains in this city are a boot blacks outfit, fishing tackle, basket of clothes, some baby carriage handles, a doctors outfit, music stand, seventy four umbrellas, four pairs of trousers, few overcoats and several pairs of over alls.
 1t seems to be impossible to say what Is the unexpected among things people lose. Of the expected there have been various efforts to make reasonably fuil records. Thus, somebody who once watched the Lost and Found" adVer- tisements for a year noted the loss m New York within that period of slo watches S73 pocketboolSs. 710 diamond pins. 4Ss bracelets and other hundreds or chains, necklaces. etc. How many things went without advertising there is no say ing.
 Paris had partial count Of things lost in 1903. The list and estimate totailed 65 .0OO umbrellas and walking-sticks, which is believed to give the French capital 8 championship Also lost and found In Paris that year were two artlnclal legs, one of them womans.

The Birmingham age-herald., 1907-06-23

TT HE strange religious belief which
 caused the arrest of Mrs. Scott M.
 Ladd, wife of Chief Justice Ladd of the Iowa supreme court, for disturbing the peace at Des Moines, Iowa, Is be- lieved to be of the same brand as that which has attacked and so strangely af- fected a number of people in Birming- ham, and which it's converts style the "Pentecostal Baptism" The arrest of Mrs. aLadd created a sensation in Des Mones and the peculiar actions of those who have received a touch of the "in- huence" are making things lively here.
 The new religious belief began it's work here in some of the Holiness missions, being brought from North Carolina It spread rapidly and the queer doings of this strange sect startled the natives of North Birmingham almost out of their wits during the two or three weeks i'll which services were held there. These services were held in tent, which was filled to overflowing by the citizens of that hustling burg, who gazed with gaping mouths and bulging eyes at the weird ac- tions of those smtten by this extraordi- nary power" The leader walked up and down the platform at one end of the tent, and as he walked he would speak first in English and then in gutteral tongue, while those who had received the baptism" gathered around the altar and began to writhe under it's influence. Each one writhed in a different manner, and as they wrlthed they would moan, scream and speak unntelligible words. This weeping and wailing and knashing of teeth began to affect others throughout the gaping crowd, and they began thrash ing about like a chicken with it's head cut off. A song would start off In the English tongue and would finish up in any number of the ffty-seven varieties. The result of all this going on was to make the place look like jumping Jack fac tory.
 While the Iowa sect cut up in great fashion, Birmingham leads them in this religion as she leads in everything else. for not only do the Birmingham devotees thrash about, but they claim this won derful power makes them capable of speaking in twenty-six different tongues. It also gets into the arms and hands of the "baptised peIpon" and makes them work as quick as lightning, causing them to write strange hieroglyph-cs at many times the speed of a short hand writer. While those thus affected say that this Is entirely beyond their control and that they are not aware of what they are writing or speaking. most of the time, yet they claim that at times they have vague understanding of the meaning of 1t and that 1t is in the nature of q warning to the world to prepare for the millennium. Some of the mystery is claimed to have been translated Into Hebrew and Syrian, but the interpreter is hard to find.
 This power Is no respector of class or color-men, women, children and negro servants having come under it's influence. It is not known whether or not this in- fiuence" has caused these servants to bake lighter biscuits or keep from going to sleep while nursing the babies. The most mar velous cases have appeared among the children and the strain of these spells of "baptismal power are reflected in their pale, drawn faces and enlarged eyes. The
