TRUSTEES ALIVE
TO CONDITIONS
Promise Cooperation With
School Superintendent
VIII Elect Three Male Principals and
Assign Them To Buildings
Later.
SAID TO BE PLAN OF LEADER

Now that all essential arrange
ments for next year have been COM
pleted by the school board, WITH the
Exception of the elections of princi-
pals and teachers, a distinct feeling
is growing up among the members
looking toward closer relations with
superintendent Lieb and his sugges-
Itions.
1t is stated that Superintendent
Lieb's two suggestions in the last
Injecting of the board were not acted
on solely from oversight of nine
members of the board, the election
of the new superintendent and the
school enumerators being RESPONSE
BILE for the failure to act; and not
any intentional disregard for his rec
Concentrations on the part of the ma
jority. With the storm Of factional
ldiscord abated It Is realized that fall
ure to concur in one of his recon-
mendations Is no reason for not Civ
ling careful consideration to all other
suggestions he may make, and the
spirit of several if not a majority of
the members of the board is to get
together and finish the year in har-
|mony.
Trustees have been talking among
themselves and the conduct of the
|self-imposed leader in using the sus-
|ceptible press to injure the schools is
denounced. More than one of the
trustees has called on Superintend-
ent Lieb and expressed regret at the
conduct of the board toward him, and
appeared surprised when to learn
that he had made some recommenda-
tions.
The election of superintendent is
the pivotal action of the board and
with HIS past. the trustees have moth
ing to obscure their attention to the
recommendation of the retiring SUI
perintendent. A caucus of the board
probably win be held before the next
Injecting to weed out the numerous
applications for principal Of the High
school. There are nearly as many ap-
|pllcations for this position as there
were for superintendent. The other
Iprincipalships have numerous appli-
oants but will not require so much at
tention. Professor Carnagey has CIV
en- to the trustees his ideas along this
line and action by the board in
April will be with full consijera-
ton Of all factors.
1t is understood that the board
leaders plan is to elect Prof. G. A.
Norvell. Prof. w. T. Johnson and
Prof. w. H. sugg. principals, and
leave their assignment. one OF them
to the High school, nominally to Su-
perintendent Carnagey when he
comes in the summer. Prof. C. H.
Shrieves will be given his present po-
sition of science teacher in the High
school.

FAST FRE|GHTS ARE
OF IMPORTANCE
Carrying PerishabIe Goods,
Keep Regular Schedule
Same as Passengers.

The systematic movement of fast
or preference freight is less spectac-
uiar than the flight q luxurious pas
senger trains, but nevertheless it Is
one of the significant ACHE fements cf
modern railroading. and Is really j
greater monument to the ingenuity
and far-reaching organization of The
great transportation exoerts than "a
the wonderful service of the dazzling
limiteds.
A regular schedule. as definite ard
fixed as the passenger schedule. is
the perfecting step in the rapid
movement or preference freight a
short while ago five car loads of sill
were carried in single train across
the continent, from San Francisco &c
New York
The contents of each car were
worth about one hundred thousand
dollars, so that both speed and safe
ty were needed in moving this invest
ment of half a million. The train
went from the Pacific coast to Chi
cago in six days andwas pulled by
the Pennsylvania on their regular
fast freight schedule from Chicago
to New York in sixty hours.
AS another example, a train of Der
ries leaves Richmond or Cape
Charles, Va, at 2:30 in the morning
and is in New York the same even
ing. Cattle are carried through from
Pittsburg to the dock in Philadelphia
in less than twenty-four hours.
The pioneer fast freight organic
ton of America is the Union Stal
line, which now carries through
freight traffic over the Pennsylvania
system. Sventy years ago the bust
ness was established by Leech & Co.
of Philadelphia, and Clark & Co, OF
Pittsburg, as an adjunct of their con
Germs.
In 1863 it was organized as an in
dependent freight line, operating oveI
number OF railroads between the
Atlantic coast and the Mississippi
years later the Pennsylvania Rail
road Company purchased the Union
lines and since that time its function
ton has been that of the fast freight
line for the company's through traffic
that is, of traffic passing over the
lines east and west of Pittsburg.
With the localtraffic beginning OF
ending on the eastern or western
lines it has nothing 10 do; that is OF
a distinctly separate class cared fol
by the railroad organization itself
The equipment used in handling the
preference freight is selected with
extra care and these trains have spec.
ial track rights.
