Chat About tin ; Council. To-night the eily fathers meet in then- regular monthly session. It is very probable- that about all that will be done will be the allowing of the monthly bills and that the Tenth avenue ordinance will not be reached. A lrt ) : representative in conversation' ' witli Aldermen Kullcr and Shngart yesterday - terday , was unable to learn if they would do 'inything with the ordinance to-night or not. Alderman Keller said he did not know what would come up , neither had lie heard that Alderman Hammer had changed his mind and would vote for the ordinance ; ho had not seen Hammer lately and knew nothing except what he had seen in the papers in regard to Hammer's recent conversation When naked if he had changed his mind and would vote for the ordinance on its final reading , ho replied with a sweet smile "that'srather a leading ques tion , isn't it1' to which the Bii : : man re sponded that the city father did not "have to" answer it unless he wished. Shugart was cold and felt like getting thawed out when struck with "will the council take nn the Tenth avenue ordi- dance or not ? " It was a plain question but as he picked the icicles from his beard he said : "Its a mystery. I'd not say in the paper that they won't as some thing might turn up ; then again if it should come up and pass , why the oppo sition to granting the right would say we sneaked it through during their absence. I'm not trying to inllnence the other aldermen as 1 don't want them to vote lor it if they think they are doinir right in votingagamst it. Yes , Itennctt , Ktraub and myself are supposed to support the ordinance while Keller , Hammer and Danforlh arc MipposcJ to be against it. " "Uncle Hy" Danforlh , as the largo alderman-at-large i.s best known by his intimates , the oilier day ox-pressed him- .self as forcibly on the subject as uny per son could wish. After paying his com pliments in a few choice "enss words" to thu papers of the cilv , he said : "I'll bed d d it I'd vote for it if they'd give me $10,000. Even if 1 was a representative of the Third or Fourth ward I'd vote again-,1 it. " When reminded that his property interests were located near the present depot "Uncle Cy" said if they were on Main street he'd vote against it also.

Superintendent JaincsMeNaughton , of this city , is given the credit , and without doubt rightly , of having given one of the most enjoyable papers before the recent meeting of the Iowa Teachers' associa tion. The DCS M nines ' Ucgister gives it special praise for "tho'great ability in thought and research , " anil states that "it was received with frequent applause , " From other reports it appears as well that Prof. McNaughton won high honors thnre , and proved an able representative ot this city'd educational I interests. It is not often that papers written by educat ors , or such topics , and read before such critical and cold audiences ns are com posed of teachers , elicit very warm ex pressions of approval , or excite the emo tional , but in this ease Prof. McNangh- ton seems to have made n happy hit. His topic was "The Lack of Boys in the High School. ' Space does not permit such a synopsis oven HS would give u fair idea of the conclusions drawn and how they were reached , nor of the clear , telling manner in which the sharp points were made , but some of the facts and figures given by him are of such general interest , that they are given. He stated that from the estimates furnished by eminent lawyers. It appears that less than 40 per cent , of practicing attorneys of the state began their pro- fessionul studies with less scholastic at tainments than are required to graduate from an ordinary high .school. About 7ft per cent of onr 11U clergymen may bo counted us havinir at least the equivalent of a high school culture. Not moro than ! 50 per cent , of the physicians now prac ticing had the equivalent of high school education. This 'M per cent of the 1JO ! Physicians gives forty-two that should bo graduated from the high school. About 10 per cent , of the teach ers of ungrahed schools are graduates from high schools. Tlnrty-eight of the high schools of the state graduated fifty-live boys in 1882. seventy-two in 1883. seventy-six In 16S5 ami ono hundred and forty-two in 188H. making a clear gain of ono hundred nnd htty-ck'ht in four years. The attendance of the boys in the o four years lias in creased 87.por cent. , while the increase of population has been but H per cent. Iho rate of Increase of puroluucnt of girls for the panic lime was 105 per cent , rromquestions sent out to , first , clergymen - men ; second , altorncystliird ; , physicians , fourth , bunkers and capitalists ; liflh , farmers ; sixth , mechanics and builders ; seventh , editors ; eighth , railroad em- ployos'nnth ; ! , common laborers ; tenth ; teacher ? mil supervisors of schools , the following nrc some of the replies given as to why there arc no more boys in onr high schools ; "The love of society and amusement and the desire to earn money as an aid in attaining their enjoyments. " "Business- , saloons and gambling houses. " "Education is too cheap and common to be highly prized , " "A hick of apprecia tion of the higher advantages ol higher culture to their children on the part of the parents. " "Poverty of the parents and business opportunities for the boys. ' "Tho passion of the American people to jccomo ) rich.1 "Boys are kept out to go into business or to learn trades , because boys who bc iu to work at trades the youngest make the most skillful nrtl- sans. "Dislike of graduating exor cises. " "Hoys get fast , love the excite ment of business , and therefore huto the drudgery of mental labor. " "Boys want to begin life at the point at wliieli their parents have arrived without the severe struggle by which it was attained. " The chief reason , in the speaker's opinion , for the lack of boys in the high schools , is the poverty of the masses and the canty resources of the middle classes. Knrly Closing. There is a movement being made to again close the dr.y goods stores early in the evening. The holiday rush having passed , there is little business for the re- talleis after 0f : ) or T o'clock now , and it will remain 5-0 for a couple of months. Since the early clo'ing movement was inaugurated last summer there is very little evening trade. moH people pre ferring to trade during the daylight , and if the merchants conclude to close early their gas. eleetiie light and fuel bills will be considerably diminished during the ne' * I two or three months. The enterprising houses , as usual , will no doubt agivo to close by 7 o'clock at the latest , but of course , if some "old fogies" hold out it may be the cause of detaining every retail clerk in tiie city until ! ) o'clock at night. The hardware and stove houses have already begun closing at 0 o'clock every evening , except Saturdays. The move is a good one for merchants and for em ployes. The public can buy all the goods they want during the daytime , and the evening trade does not amount to enough ordinarily to pay for lights. .MilHOIllO. Star chapter Xo.17 K. A. M.
