SHALL MARRIED WOMEN
TEACH IN THIS CITY?
Educational Board Graphing
With Problem.

Among DR.. Addison b. Poland's list
of appointments for substitute teachers
two were laid over for investigation by
the educational committee of the Board
of Education last night. Both are mar
ried women one having three children
dependent upon her.
During the discussion or this sub
feet it was brought out that there is
no rule to exclude married women from
the schools; in fact, there are many
married teachers in the schools noAN
The point considered was not whether
a teacher is married or not, but
whether she can. in addition to her
household duties, devote as much at
tention to her school work as she
would without being forced to look
after her home and children. 1t was
purely a question of ability to do two
things at one time. Commissioner Tay-
lor asked if a woman could teach
school satisfactorily when her children
were i'll at home.
The matter will be investigated and
a report made at the next meeting of
the committee.

RESERVES STOP
NEAR RIOT OVER
LABOR TROUBLES
WOrkmen at Foundry Threaten

Police reserves had to be called 10
stop a near-riot which arose yester.
day over labor troubles al the foundry
of the Star Spring Bed Company al
1853 Branford street. which has been
placed in the hands of a receiver. More
than 200 workmen refused to carry on
the work of the concern unless they re-
ceived the two-weeAs' back salary
which was due them.
A consultation was held and David
H.. Bidder. receiver. sent Philip D. FL

ruptcy court, to the scene to straight
en- u the difficulties. Mr.. Elliot met
a delegation Of the workmen in the
offices of the concern at 113 New Jer-
sey Railroad avenue, and told them
to return to their benches and their
pay would be forthcoming at 4 o'clock.
Threaten TO Break Doors.
At that hour the money had not been
obtained and the workmen grew rest
less. They threatened to break down
the doors and manhandle Mr.. Ell %
unless he paid them off. The latter was
quite willing to pay them and get out,
but ne did lot have the money.
Affairs o. on such a serious aspect
at his juncture that Mr.. Elliot decided
he needed police protection and sent In
a call for assistance. The blue eats
and the money arrived almost stimuli
taneously and the party marched to the
foundry. Another series of cries of dis
satisfaction arose when it was an
nounced hat only enough money had
been obtained to pay each man one
week instead of the two due him. not
more han one of the angry workers
were allowed in the office at a time
to receive his money, as 1t was feared
violence would result. BY this method
the men were finally sent home partly
satisfied and grumbling that there
would be a strike if the rest of their
money was not paid.

ment made with the board some time
ago.
According to the company's agree
ment, says Mr.. Crawford, the cars were
to be run from the Bellevile avenue
car barns instead Of the Lacka wa ma
station. 1t was originally proposed 10
run the cars from the car barn down

to run them as far as Bridge street so

panied her to a number of places.
Tells Contradictory Stories.
Today she is telling so many contra-
dictory stories hat the police DO moi
know what to believe. She says that
she lived in Plain1eid all her life, and
the next minute she says that she only
lived there five months. She is also
unable to give any Plainfeld add ess.
All she can Say about that place Is that
she lived there over the brook.
She also says that she lived in Dun
nellen, but can give no address. Her
condition is particularly pitiful be-
cause the over-.er of the poor refused
to take her in at first, so that she and
the children were forced to spend the
night in the station house.
They were finally induced to send a
mar up from the ~poorhouse, who will
make an effort to find her former home
in Plainfeld.
Has No Fixed Names for Children.
AT different times she gave differ Mt
names to the children she had with uer.
The boys name, whoe g is 4, she
gave as George, Williams and Edward
respectively.
The age of the Youngest child, who
looks like IL or IL months old, and has
teeth that only a year-old child could
have, she gave as 4 months.
According to her story, her husband
is a carpenter who is a member of the
local union, and there are four more
children who she says are home.
