George NJ. Bridwell. superintendent oil

that body, had some difficulty IN eA-
planning to the board last evening iiafs-
action in which an emplOye had Deell
paid twice for the same work, had re
turned the overcharge TO Bridweh, but
that gentleman bad neglected 10 hand II
over TO the board.
The employe was H ". Nichols, who
was employed in August last to draw
plans and specifications for manual

to 10, and was paid by Bridwel! by per
sonal check as the superintendent, under
his peculiar system. had paid all en-

amounting TO sol For this later amount
he gave his check il one instance ano
was able to produce the check. The other
payment of the S54 was in cash, a melhOu
of payment which he admitted was IN
usual with him.

Nichols was paid by the board the sec

with Mrs Bridwell TO apply on the S54
which he owed the superintendent This,
BridWell said. left $3.50 Nichols owes hiin,

He was sharply questioned as TO thls
double payment of S54, and his eXplana-
