 Reflected Upon Her Ability.

Stamford, April 3 P,-An action alleging malicious libel' was begun today by Mrs. May Pearl, school teacher in the Springdale section, against Joseph X. Ewarts. superin- tendent of the Stamford schools. The papers are returnable at the May session of the superior court in Bridgeport.

The plaintiff also alleges that the superintendent in remarks to others and to the school board referred to her teach ing ability and her character in such q way that the nearer through im- agination would have reached the conclusion that she was unfit to con- tinue as a teacher.
 The damages claimed are 5000.

night in a speech here. "They might
as we'll save themselves great deal
of Parliamentary trouble. 1t is use
less to postpone it to November; use
less to postpone for five or ten years
for never can a country with Imperi-
al responsibility, with obligations to
other European nations, and the vi
tai necessity of maintaining its own
Imperial communications, agree to
legislation like this and never, in my
opinion, will this country under any
government, so agree" he said.
