Mr.. VIII reported that the fire es-
capes ordered had been shipped some
time ago and he had a tracer sent
after them as they had not arrived.
On motion, $500 was appropriat-
led to pay for magazines out of the
special school fund for use of the high
school.
The clerk was instructed to adver-
tise for coal bids so as to have them
to act on at the next meeting. .z
On motion, o. H. Will was instruct
ed to install fire escapes on arrival
and also to see that the storm doors
of both school houses were arranged
so as to be safely handled in case
OF fire. Vi zsgS<
All the business being transacted,
the question of janitorshops was then
taken up. In order to understand the
action taken, it will be necessary to
go back, little. At the meeting of
April Z, Chris Hess. who was janitor
of the upper building, resigned, and
Angus Mcdonald was elected janitor,
as the minutes show Ito fill the vacan-
cy for the ensuing year. This was
unanimously adopted. Henry Rich
holt had previously promised Jack
Williams to vote for him in case there
was a vacancy and claimed that W.
A. Falconer promised Williams at the
same time that he would vote for him
for a janitorship of the High school.
w. F. Cochrane was also of the opin-
ion that Williams was to have a place
at the first vacancy Neither Coch.
rane nor Richholt knew that Hess
was to resign on April z. His resig-
nation was read and accepted and Au-
gus Mcdonald elected before Coch-
rane or Richholt knew what was
what or "who was who" ,ss'
In the May meeting the minutes
of the April meeting were read and
unanimously approved, which nailed
down solid Angus McDonald's cleo
ton for the ensuing year. At the
June meeting, w. F. Cochrane, who
was then president, called up the mat
ter of a janitor for the Will school
and Richhot asked that it be pass
ed over until after the school election,
which was done. Bis@
It was well understood by the com
mon people what the issue was in the
last school election. They all knew
it was to provide a place for VIII
liams at the High school building.
Some well-meaning, but politically
dull people, did not know what the
issue was and were tghosted" into
helping to carry out this scheme. At
the regular and August meeting the
question was not brought up, but in
August an adjournment was taken for
a week and then no quorum was pres
emit, and another adjournment was
taken, and at this meeting Messrs
Falconer, Richholt and Wachter elect
ed Williams janitor, but left the build
ing in which he was to act to be desig-
mated at another time. and an adj
journment was taken until September
4 There being no quorum, this meet
ing was adjourned. This was the sit
uation confronting the board OF edu-
cation last night, Angus Mcdonald
claiming to be janitor by virtue OF
election for the ensuing year, Jack
Williams elected to a janitorship and

 Albany. N. Y., Dec. S.-Contracts made by insurance companies with their agents as to the allowance of their commissioners. prior to the en- actment of Section s7. of the so-called Armstrong insurance laws, which linn it's the amount which may be paid to insurance agents as commissions, are not affected by the legislation, accord ing to a decision handed down today by the Court of Appeals. The Court holds that Section s7 Is not retroac- tive, and if 1t were, 1t would be un- constitutional.
 The decision Is a victory for William Boswell of Cincinnati, who brought an action against the Security Mutual Life Assurance Company of Binghamton. to recover commissions alleged to be due under a contract signed in 1899, which allowed him commissions higher than those permitted by Section 97.
