SCHOOL MEETING TOMORROW
Board viii Meet at Roosevelt Building for
Reorganization aud Transaction
Of Other Business.

Of Other Business.
The fret meeting of the new board
of education of the Independent
School District of Virginia, con-
tanning one new member in the per.
son of r. J. McGhee in place of c.
E. Moore, will be held at the Roose-
velt building tomorrow evening
for the purpose of reorganization,
the election of officers for the ensu.
ing term and the transaction of
other business, of which a great
amount presents itself during the
term of construction of the new Vir-
ginia High building.
1t is also rumored that represen
tation of that element which failed
to land at the late school election
will be in attendance with a demand
upon the board for the dismissal of
Superintendent Lafayette Bliss,
and it will be interesting to hear the
grounds of such demand if made.
1t is therefore probable the school
meeting will have many attendants
who would keep in touch with the
play-whether it is pulled off or not.

there 10 no such metal, and that the
phenomena from which It's existence
has been inferred are due to unknown
combinations analogous TO those which
impart Tho property Of phosphoresence
to certain sulphides. He calls atten-
tion to tn, fact that what we usually
call rsdiun Is simply the chloride OF
bromide OF An unknown substance. A
pure chloride, he says. Is never phos-
phoresent. but becomes SO whes
mixed with traces OF certain other SUB
