Mr.. Randall J. Condor, for a
short time Superintendent OF Schools
in this city, has resigned to accept
similar position in Cincinnati He
was willing to stay here If certain
conditions could be complied with.
The school committee was not able
to bring about these conditions at
once, Thence the resignation, which
takes effect on January Ist. 1t is
very likely that Providence will
suffer a severe loss in the departure
OF Mr.. Condor, as he is considered
one of the most able and progressiv9 .
educators OF to-day, but it is very
possible that in his succes Sor an
equally good man may be had 1t
will be remembered that previous to
coming here Mr.. Condor was SUI
perintendent of schools in Helena,
Mont, a comparatively small city,
and his fame had not gone abroad to
the extent 1t has since. In fact, he
was not considered, at the time of his
coming here, as preemlnent in at

the office. 4" There are lots of good

put together. Under the glass was

then put on. and over this was glued
q piece Of dark red outing flannel. 90

Of handles were then put on. at the
price Of ten cents each. and the tray
was finished. The entire cost was
