COUNTY DIVISION BILL GETS The AXE

County division for St. Louis
county has again met defeat at the
hands of the state solons, being
beaten by vote of 20 to % in the
senate Wednesday evening.
But while apparently dead Issue
for the session. it may yet come up
for reconsideration, when a larger
vote may show different CON-
plexion, six mem bers OF the senate
not being in attendance at the time
the vote was recorded. The idea of
reconsideration of this important
measure is given co)oring through
the fact that other important meas
ures have been ee,tled, giving the
body time in which to take up the
bill again should it be pressed.
The defeat of the measure does
not come as an unexpected blow to
many range residents who have
watched the progress of affairs, and
who realize the odds the sponsors
for the measure have had to fight.
But even though it may not come
up again for the present session it
will be live issue another term,
and the residents Of the range will
see the present delegation in the
body from this district will be re-
tained to carry forward the fight in
the same valiant manner which haa
marked their past efforts.

SCHOOL DEADLOCK
CONTINUES TO STICK
Vote On Hiring Of Superintendent Sill
Shows Three For Retention Of NJ.
Bliss and Three Opposed.

The regular school meeting. Wed
nesday evening was devoid of spec-
ial interest aside from the fact that
vote on the hiring OF superin'
tendent showed the deadlock which
has existed for several months past
to be in full force and effect as yet,
three members voting for the en-
ployment of Mr.. Bliss and three op-
posing the movement for his reten-
ton in the schools.
The board considered the merits
and dement's of several score of
makes of pianos, finally agreeing
upon the purchase of a Chase, Sty
lie A, through the Jas. A. Terry
Piano Co. This instrument is for
the new North Side School, which
rapidly nears completion.
The corps of teachers for the en-
suing year was also selected, and
salaries set. Those selected will be
notified, that they may enter into
formal contract if they so desire.
The vote on the retention of Mr..
Bliss was brought out upon motion
of Trustee Hendrick, supported by
President McGhee, that the super
intendent be re employed for the
ensuing year at a salary of $500 per
month for the twelve months, an
increase of $6OO per annum over
former salary paid. The vote
showed Messrs. McGhee, Hendrick
and Fleming as favoring the prop.
osition, while Messrs. Eaton, Haw-
kinson and Stewart formed the op-
position. As to the final outcome
of the fight we will make no predic-
tions, but we do believe the
interests of the schools may be best
subserved by the selection of new
superintendent, under existing con-
ditions. We do not say this because
of any personal ill-will toward the
present superintendent, but we do
believe the existing fight has gotto
a point where so long as Mr.. Bliss
is retained in his position it will
continue-and will continue to the
detrimept Of the educational in nstitu.
tions of the city. And@with a view
to the best interests ofthese ineti,,,-,.
tions We "a Il tsse ttir boai d
will shortly make selection OF new;
man; one who may be acceptable to
all patrons of the schools and to
citizens in general; who has not,
through associations, become allied
with any one element in the city,
but who will come to Virginia to
give his sole and undivided atten-
ton to the schools.

NEW YORK, Sept 23.-The Ameri-
can League pennant having been nail
ed by Philadelphia. Manager McGraw
and his New York Giants spent their
time today figuring Just how fast they
would have to travel to cinch the Ma
tional League flag promptly and thus
give them breathing spell before the
bell rings for the worlds series. Con-
ME Mack has declared that his regu-
lars win be given vacation from time
to time now. Subs will be thrown in
to the line up for the remaining games
and the veterans will do just enough
work to keep. on edge. As matters
stand the Giants should say the last
word in the National League race at
least ten days before the first worlds
series game. They are Idle today but
McGraw spent the afternoon in con-
ference with his men and showed them
just what has to be done. Six more
victories and they will have the pen
nant nailed to the mast beyond all
mathematical argument. The Giants
have twelve more games to play and
the Phillies sixteen. Should the Phil
lies run into more bad weather or de-
feats, the work of the Giants will be
completed sooner but the Giants can
clinch the pennant by taking six of
their remaining games, even though
Philadelphia makes a clean sweep
from now, to the finish. The game with
Brooklyn tomorrow Is at the Polo
grounds. The Giants cross the bridge
for three games with the Dodgers,
then comes three with Boston, and re-
turn to New York with six games
with the Phillies. Three of these
games are in one day, Oct. 2. The
Giants will be permitted to come to
bat for half inning and with the
same Philadelphia pitcher in the box
will try to overcome the two run lead
of the Phillies in the disturbed game.
In connection with the war conference
of the Giants today, rumors are that
McGraw decided to start Demaree in
the box in the first game for the
worlds series tussle. McGraw was
not shouting his plans from house
tops.
