SCHOONER BALL BURNED.
Had Become a Derelict and Was a
Menace to Vessels.

Schooner Elvira Ball, abandoned by
her crew off Newport News early in
February has probably been heard
from for the last time in the report
Of a British steamer arriving at L4iv-
erpool. STEAMER Devonian reported
having spoken British steamer Cevic
on March 49, She gave the Devon
shire the information that she had
passed the wreck of the Ball in lati-
tude 40.46, longitude 5S.5S, and sent a
boats crew to the derelict, and set
her afire.
The Ball was owned by the Gilbert
Transportation company Of Mystic and
hailed from New London. With her
cargo Of lumber she was valued at
about $780, 900. In a gale it became
imperative that the crew leave the
schooner, which had become disabled,
but after the gale every effort posi-
bic was made to locate her. The
steamer Tasco made a fruitless search
for the schooner when she was report
ed off this part Of the coast, but could
not find her

In other words, it has already come
to pass that the individual taxpayer
pays more than one-half his school
tax into the general town fund, IN
the distribution of which he has no
voice. for it is spent at the discretion
of our IA different district committees.
Ten years ago the taxpayer paid most
of his school tax to his own district
Today his district tax is in most cases
less than the town school tax.
The estimated expense Of the town
school appointments for 1903 is $49,-
523S6 This is about 3-mill tax on
our grand list.
sum raised by taxation for our schools
by the various districts and by the
town. after deducting the sums paid
by certain districts, as interest on
their school debt, amoupted to less
than $4,000. If the town had paid all
this money and there had been no dis
trict taxes whatever, the rate would
have been less than 4 ga mills on
dollar.
1t is clear, however, that under con-
solidation expenses instead of being
$4,000 would have been cut down in
many ways, of which l mention few:
I. Savings from uniting certain schools,
abolishment of a few poorly attended
schools, and better grouping of pupils
IN nlSDef grades. IL. Savings III eA-
pense Of supervision; III. Savings in
purchases Of supplies, in printing bills
and in clerical work; ". Savings in
cost of teaching such subjects as
drawing and singing. Probably 4 IL
mills would have been sufficient to
pay all expenses.
Since all districts have reduced their
debts to nothing, -er to a sum that
could be easily met in the district
itself, the time seems unusually pro-
pitious for reconsidering the matter of
consolation. If each chartered dis
trict would appoint one or two repre-
sentatives who should, with like repre-
sentatives from other districts, Impair
TALLY investigate this whole subject,
an amicable adjustment could be made
that would give US better schools on
the average than we have at present,
without increasing the taxes of the
individual citizen.
