The storm sewer being built and

another hot subject came up for dis

subject was introduced by Council
man Bates, who also introduced a
resolution. The resolution was to
the effect that the city attorney draw
up an ordinance controlling building
operations, on Aultman street. from
First to Ninth. the control being as to
what nature of materials shall be
used in building construction. The
idea or the ordinance is to promote
public safety by making it compul-
sorry to construct buildings of brick,
stone or concrete only, making them
as near fire proof as possible. The
resolution was unanimously adopted.

with which the public schools are
surrounded in Nevada, desire to ex-
plain briefly the organization of our
system before taking up the educa-
tional features.
The present system of schools was
adopted in 1907, and went into ef-
feet the first of September of that
year. Prior to that time there were
public schools throughout the state.
We now have State Board of
Education composed of the Governor.
the State Superintendent of Public
instruction, and the President of the
State University, standing at the
head of the system. Next to the
State Board of Education in author
ity We have State superintendent
and five Deputy State Superintend-
ents. Each school district has To-
cal Board of Trustees consisting of
three members.
The State Board of Education has
supreme authority over all courses
of study, all teachers examinations,
and over the eertification of teach
ers. This board also appoints the
deputy superintendents.
The state superintendent has gen.
eral supervision of all of the schools
of the state, and is required by law
TO visit each county and to perform
the usual duties of superintend-
ent of schools. He is also required
TO apportion the state and county
school funds to the several school
districts accoring TO the methods pre-
seribed by law.
The state is divided into five sup
ervision districts, the first district
being comprised of Elko county, the
second of White Fine. Eureka and
Lander counties, the third of Hum
boldt and Churchill counties, the
fourth of Nye, Lincoln, Clark and
Esmeralda counties, and the fifth of
the six small counties in the west
has a deputy state superintendent
OF public instruction who has gener-
al supervision of the schools under
the authority of the state board OF
education and the state superintend-
ent. These districts range in area
from Elko county with about 5000
square miles of territory TO the
fourth district with nearly 10000
square miles. This district has near

Mr. Mayer, of the clothing firm,

on Aultman street when the fire bell
began to ring, and totally unaware
that his premises were ablaze, raced
down Aultman street in search of the
