 Invitations were sent to members of. the School Board to attend and discuss the matter of retrenchment without impairiha the efficiency of the school, but the gentlemen failed to appear and stated in communi- cation that they had no matters to discuss with the Council.
 The invitation for the Board to appear before the Council was a mo- ticn made by Council Maynard, at the former meeting and Clerk E. Grimm was instructed to invite the board.

Chief Schroeder and his followers staged come back when they de feated the Nationals in the eighth game of the focal school Basket Ball League.
 From the time of the first toss up the fur was flying on both sides and tho spectators were on their toes until the final call of time

 An extra five minutes was neces- sary to determine the winners but the Nationals were unable to stop the stampede Of the Americans and lost out to their opponents to the tune of IS to i6.
 Very few fouls were called on either side, and the game was the fastest staged this season.
 Sather starred for the Nationals. making several long shots from the field.

Es-Pirates Sigh for Old Days
As They Sacig Trauel Sho,u Tee
I"o-Edged Kelsey, Hank Crattan and Sullio Gra-
NADIA Individually Buccaneers, Swap Tales, the
hile Warming Against Upstart Rum Runners

-Four more pirates showed up at the
Travel Show at Grand Central Palace
yesterday afternoon, proclaiming in
the name Of all the buried treasure be
tween here and Ceylon that their titles
were as authentic as any of those who
broke into the official tea party for
pirates the day before.
"Yo, no, no, and bottle of ruml"
they roared in chorus, and the door
keeper cringed before them.
Captain Hank Grammar headed the
buccaneers expedition, whose mem bers
had papers from Sailors Snug Harbor
and knew all about prating under the
Southern Cross, where typhoons are
typhoons and gold is gold. With him
were Bo's'n Mike Reed, and Cap'n Kip
Kelsey. While these oldtimers stood
IN dlsdainful contemplation OF the
model OF the latest Cunarder they
were approached by giant in a tat
tered sou wester, with rain drops trick
ling down his grizzled whiskers Six
foot tall. he was, with shoulders erect
and solid as a skyscraper. He clapped
q, hand; big as a roast of beef, on Cap'n
Kelsey's shoulder.
"Shiver my timbers, if it amt Two
edged Kelsey" he roared.
"Sullio Granada" came the answer
ing roar, and the two old cronies, who
parted in sailors retreat on the Bar
barry Coast twenty years ago-maybe
ciasped hands again.
Saw in paper that the lady wanted
to talk to pirates" chuckled Sullio, 80
| thought I'd come along ovcr Just to
see that these here rum runners don't
fill her up full of newfangled nonsense
with steam yachts and power boats.
Us oldtimers has got to stand together
against these fellers"
The pallid youth who was dispensing
decorative pamphlets of the latest
oceangoing lu%uries turned his back
on the next batch OF school children
and sidled closer to the old men. Their
voices fell. Maybe they suspected him;
maybe the remainder Of their reminis-
cences were not for any casual ear.
However, they turned suddenly and
fixed him with glittering eyes.

City Wastes 3 Millions,
Taxation Report Holds
Delay in Collections Costs That
Amount for Loans. ALBANY
Committee Asserts
From a StaN Correspondent

ALBANY, March 30.--The Hylan ad-
mlnlstration is wasting $3,000,000 an
nually. which goes into the pockets of
private bankers, by delaying collection
of taxes until the fifth month of the
fiscal year according to the Davenport
taxation committee
This sum, to which every family in
New York City contributes $3.50 each
year, is paid out in interest to favored
bankers on short term notes issued
against the taxes to be collected.
The committee in its latest report,
filed to-day with Lieutenant Governor
Wood, declares that if the city authori-
ties would advance the date for the col
lection of taxes, as other communities
have done, the $3,000000 would be
saved.
The Davenport committee cites this
instance as one of the numerous cases
of the increasing cost of LOCAL govern
ment. The entire subject of village.
town, city and county taxation will be
thoroughly investigated by the commit
tee this summer and fall. 1t is ex-
pected the investigation will begin
early in May.
The report declares that many of the
counties in the state are living beyond
their means; that their expenses have
grown entirely out of proportion to
their increase in population and with
out regard to their sources of revenue.
While some of the increase is due to
legitimate progress, the report holds
that a great deal of the increase is un-
warrafted and due in many instances
to unbusinesslike management.
The committee finds that the growing
tendency Of the Legislature TO exempt
various sorts Of property from taxation
is an evil that must be remedied.

Such d Mess

Old Mother Nature.
Such d Mess

Farmer Browns Boy was standing
Just outside {he little sugar house gaz-
ing in the direction in which Poker and
Woof Woof had disappeared when
Farmer Brown arrived. Such a
sight as he was! 1t is no wonder
that Farmer Brown threw up both
hands when he looked a. him "Gra-
cious sakes, SON." said he, "whatever
have you done to yourself?'
Farmer Browns Boy grinned.
sNothing,' said he. "I didn't do it to
myself; it was done to me" Then.
seeing the puzzled look on mis- fathers
face, he explained that he had tried
to so into the sugar house at the
same time that two half-grown Bears
had tried to come out, and that as
The doorway was narrow none had
been successful for few moments
Are there any more Bears in
there asked Farmer Brown.
i don't know" replied Farmer
Browns Boy. I'm perfectly willing
to wait out here while you go in and
see
Very cautiously Farmer Brown
Feeped inside the sugar house Of
course he found no one there. Then
he went in and Farmer Browns Boy
followed. Farmer Brown gave a long
whistle of dismay as he looked
around. Such a mess as he found in
side that sugar house, My, my. my,
such mess! Everything in there
excepting the evaporator was upset.
Tin sap pals, battered and dented,
were everywhere. Farmer Brown 5
Boys blankets were in the evaporator,
which had been half full Of syrup,
SyrQp and sugar were smeared over
everything. Flour and SCOT were scat
tered everywhere, 1t was impossible to
move anywhere without stepping into
a mixture of syrup and -four and
SCOT
How many Bears aid you say were
in here?" asked Farmer Brown.
"Two, replied his boy. Two half
grown ones"
Well said Farmer Brown. "if |
were to judge by the mess in this
sugar house | should say that there
had been two dozen Bears in here.
1t is lucky thing that we had taken
most OF the sugar and syrup home
before those scamps got in here. It'll
take US week 10 clean this mess up.
am afraid, son, that you were care
less and left the door open"
Farmer Browns Boz shook his
head II almost know didn't" said
he, 81 closed that door when l left,

Asked for Adjournment

Not long after James L. Quackenbush
nad obtained his extension from Judge
Mayer re appeared before the Transit
Commission, which had scheduled a
service hearing for the Interborough,
and asked for an adjournment, giving
mis- reasons as follows:
The negotiations which Mr.. Hedley
and I and the others connected with
the company have been engaged upon
since the adjournment on Friday after
noon have been progressing continu
ously. We will Of necessity be engaged
with those negotiations all of the rest
of the week, and ! am quite sure that
Monday and Tuesday are likely to be
occupied l would like to have at least
one day intervene to collect our
thoughts and be in shape to proceed
with this matter"
Chairman McAneny said that the
commi ssion is anxious to press both
the service and valuation matters,
"The only reason for further ad-
journment in either case" said Mr..
McAneny, would be an assurance to
us that you are putting all the pressure
you can, in turn, on the negotiations
with the Manhattan Company and that
you have reason to believe that it will
continue to be worth while to occupy
the time you have indicated"
~ can give assurances as TO both of
those things" said Mr.. Quackenbush.
