NARRAGANSETT
PIER WANTS NEW
SCHOOL SYSTEM

A new school system is being planned
for Narragansett Pier. At the financial
town meeting this morning efforts were
made TO sanction a union with South
Kingstown on school matters with the
idea OF securing permanent superintend-
ent to look after the two towns.
The scheme is being furthered by Rev.
Walter II. y. Allen and Chairman
Thomas q. Hazard, Jr. of the Narragan-
sctt school committee. and leading edu-
Gators OF South Kingstown are also in
terested The school system of Narra-
gansett is now supervised by a school
committee and by DIR. Allen as temporary
superintendent.
A few years ago the state passed
a general law allowing that where towns
provide for a superintendency as a sal
ary OF $500 or over the state will bear
half the expense. With the idea OF thus
encouraging excellent school systems for
the town this has been pushed ahead, so
that now l6 towns are so arranged At
Narragansett. though as there are only
about 300 school children. such could
hardly be done. South Kingstown Is In
practically the some position as Nara
gansett. Hence the idea OF uniting the
two towns on a school basis and by allow
that each shall bear an expense OF such
n system proportionate 10 the number OF
schools in each place affected. Nara
gansett will probably hove 10 stand about
5000 year under the arrangements.

Edgar w. Meikle. the 17-year-old boy
who is charged with the murder of his
father, Charles s. q. Meikle In Lynn
on the evening OF Nov. z, 1905, was
heard before Judges Stevens and An
derson in the session OF the superior
court in this city today.
The elder Meikle met his death by
revolver and IL was thought TO have
been self-inhicted. The state police
held this view OF the case until October
OF last year. when they arrested young
Meikle on the charge OF numbering
his father. claiming that, as the bullet
entered Meikle's left cheek and he
being right handed, he could not have
done the deed.
Although the grand jury indicted
Meikle several months ago. for some
reason the case was reconsidered at
last weeks sitting, but no report was
made.

deputies, while beside one OF the
deputies sat Rev. Henry Bodinger,
rector of St Peters Episcopal church
OF this city, who has visited the boy
every week since he has been in tail.
! Sis Brothers of Lynn appeared as coun-
sci for Meikle, while the state was rep
resented by District Attorney w. Scott

Malone will not personally participate In

About so tolesmen were In the court
| room and within an hour 20 OF them had
been either excused or challenged and
| three had been accepted as jurymen. The
prevailing opinion in the court room ap-
| peored TO be that the trial would not be
