company's property , because the business
was not being run to suit him In oilier
words , his position is that the minority can

for the court to determine whether or not
the law will warrant his bollof It wont

A Slight Clue
Yesterday morning Charles ' Moore , who
resides in the northern part of the city , made
a find willed furnishes a very slight clue In
cbuncetlon with the burglarizing of Harts
Jewelry store on Saturday ovonlnff , an ac
count of which appeared in yesterdays ' Hue
Whllo passing the corner of Thirteenth
street and Avcimo 0 be found a ladies gold
watch lying on the ground and a llttlu
further along a silver ono They were of
the lot stolen from Harts store and tbo sup
position is that they were dropped by the
thieves in tbelr Might
Two theories nro advanced : ono that the
burglars were mulling for the northern part
of the city , where they • • planted tbelr
bobt.v , ami the other that they were going to
Ouiuhu und were avoiding Broadway uutil
the wcsloru part of tbo city could be
readied , that they might take a motor nud
escape undiscovered across tbo rlvor , Tha
police uro worklug on tbo case , but have as
yet discovered nothing that tends to estab
lish the iuoutlty of the daring burglars

A Itiipttirr In tlio Fclmnl Tloiril
'flic disagreement among tho'membors of
tbo school board at tbo mooting hold Satur
day evening bid * fair to develop into uutto n
bitter contest nnd has already led to nn open
rupture Matters have not gene along as
harmoniously ns might bo for the past year ,
but It wns not known on the outsldo that
there was nny pcrious difficulty or that the
relations of the members were other than
friendly The cause of the outbreak on Sat
urday night was as follows : Mr Schocnt-
gen chairman of the committco on tcachors ,
appointed Miss Julia Wnlkcr to IlU the va
cancy caused by the resignation of Mtsi
Southwell Miss vVnltar had never boon
elected as a substitute by the board nnd nt
the meeting sovornl of the members
picked up the matter Mr Schootitgen
explained that the ether member of tbo
tcachors' committee , Mr Hunter , was not
In the city nnd ho had to make the appoint
ment before Monday morning In order that
the school need not bo Interrupted Ho saw
the superintendent , who told hint that Miss
Walker " . 'as n competent tencher , nnd on this
account lin appointed her to the place The
board thought that Mr Schoentgen was tak
ing n llttlu too much power on himself , nnd
accordingly sat down on the nppomtiitont
On word brought on another , und ( Inullv it
developed Into quito u hot debate , with
President Stewart and Mr Schoentgen on
ono .sldo ami Messrs , Italn , Blnxstm , Hunter
and Inwson on the otlmr 1 ho breach widened
rapidly nnd will bo manifest in a personal
light from this lime on to election , Snld Mr
Schoentgen yesterday : "Uio whnlo trouble
is the outgrowth of allowltiz politics to enter
the educational question , and the
consequent attempt to run tbo
schools as n political adjunct I am
opposed to that , and urn not enough of
a democrat to allow such u state of affairs to
goon without obJcLting to It If there is any
branch which should bo conducted on broad
guugoprinciples and entirely frco rrom party
inllucnco or dictation , it Is the free public
schools It seems that there nro members
of the board who do tint think as I do ' 1 hero
Is n disposition to throw everything to the
Irish Catholics , una supply all vacanclas
among the teachers from this class I am
not opposed to thoin , but I believe that nn
prejudlco should bo shown in their favor
Place all on an equality so farns their religion
Is concerned , and decldo the merits
of the applicants on nnotlior basis
Church membership should not constitute an
essential qualification , neither should it bo
u disqualilicatiou Now , let mo illustrate
how matters are being conducted The
rules provide th it no teacher shall bo
elected without the recommendation of tno
teachers committee Disregarding this
piecedent , during the absence of both Mr
Hunter and invself from the city , Mr
Hluxsim thought ho saw his opportunity
nnu tried to secure the appointment of Miss
Katie Morris nnd Miss Delia O'Kourko as
substitutes President Stewart objected , ns
it was contrary to the rules , but the other
members of the board insisted ,
nnd the vote resulted three
to ono to make the appointment
A week ago yesterday I was notilicd by Mr
Stcwmt that Miss Southwell had resigned
and Mr Hunter being out of the city , I ap
pointed Miss Julia Walker to till thu vacancy
Superintendent MoNuughton said bo needed
another substitute und I appointed Miss
Lilllun Hart , both ginduates of our high
school , and having passed an excellent ex
amination At the mooting Saturday night
both of them were thrown out und MIssoa
Morris and O'Hourke elected in their placjs
These latter ladles are both grad
a.itcs of the sisters school and
never attended the public high school
Neither the superintendent nor myself know
anything pf their qualiticntlonsor over heard
of them before Granting that they are well
qualitied to tench why should the change bo
made in their favor ? It simply shows very
plainly the disposition that has been for soma
lima manifest to discriminate in
favor of the Irish Catholics This
is unjust and un-American , and I
protest against it most vehemently I
am an American und in favor of American
institutions , but I will not stoop to some of
the potty intrigues indulged in by some who
claim to Imvo moro Americanism in thoin
than I have 'lhu present situation is the
result of political intrigue There has bcon
a big chtiugo slnco Mr Hunter came out as
n candldato for Judge of the superior court
Before that tlmo ho heartily opposed the
solcclion of so many Catholic teachers nnd
stormed nbcut It much moro than I ever did
All this is now changed , and bo is working
as bard on tlio other side ns any of them
Messrs Lawson and Haln are both very
anxious , for some reason to me unknown , to
bo reelected to their present positions as
members of the bjard These three aspiring
candidates and Mr Ulnxsim nro working
hand in hand , nnd is it hard to toll the rea
son ! Mr Hunter stated at tbo tncctini ; that
ho would oppose paying Miss Walker a cent
for her weeks woi k , nnd I tqld them thcro
thnt If this board refused to allow the bill
another board would consider it , and if Unit
board refused I would pay it myself
I toll you that the condition of affairs as
conducted by this clique is getting to bo most
alarming 1 will not bo a parry to It , und I
will not consent to remain n member of the
board and bo compelled to suffer tlio odium
that must result from their actions I am
not a candidate for ofllco and would not
again qualify If elected to ono 1 bavo at
heart only the best Interests of the city , but
1 have yet two years to serve as member of
the school board , yet I stale most positively
that if the two outgoing members of the
board are ro-olccted I will resign Immedi
ately after election , und Mr Stewart assured
me Saturday evening that ho would do the
same
It is a question for the citizens to deter
mine The ro-elcctlon of these members will
moan that tbelr policy Is approved , and ours ,
of course , disaproved If , therefore , our
policy docs not moot with the approbation of
the citizens it is far better that others should
take our places Matters Imvo come to such
a pass that this stand Is necessary in Justlco
to ourselves I am perfectly willing to let
the publio decldo the case , and by that
decision I will abide "

The Nov , Q.V. . Crofts addressed an un
usually largo congregation in the Con

It the third and ' '
yestordav , was concluding
sermon of a sonos the pastor lias dolivoi ed
upon the subject of the Holy Spirit Ills
text was Iuko Ul ; • ) ' . , And behold I send
the promise of my Father upon you ; but
tary yo In tbo city of Jerusalem , uutil yo bo
endued with power from on high "
The speaker rapidly sketched tbo situa
tion of the apostles at the time the words of
Christ were spoken Our Lord had loft a
great work for his disciples to do , but they
were not fully prepared to do that work ,
They were to wait for the outpourings of
the spirit The promise is contained In Joel
HiSS-JO , and Acts II : 10-31 ; And It shall
como to pass In the last days , salth God , I
will pour out my spirit upon all llcsh ; and
) our sons and your daughters shall prophesy ,
aud your young moa shall see visions , and
your old men shall dream dreams ; and on
my servants and on my houjoaiaideus 1 will
pour out in these days my spirit and they
shall prophesy And it shall como to pass
that whosoeyor shall call upon the nsmo of
the Lord shall ua saved "
The church needs tbo same divine power
today to overcome worldllness ; to load It to
greater consecration ; to convince tbo world
of sin , righteousness and Judgmout , aud to
give cfllcaoy to tbo means used lor the salva
tion of the world
All great movements In the history of the
church have been begotten by tno Holy
Spirit , Not only may Pentecost , with Its
thousands of conversions , beAppcatcd tons
protf , but evidence Is also furnished by the
rapid recessions to the church during the
whole of the llrst two centuries It Is cer
tain thnt ministers of the Lord , lnvmcti , de
voted ami fearless women and oven sinves
then united In bringing the gospel to the
different circles of society , nnd that com
tncrco likewise wns n powerful agency In
carrying it to the rcmotost pans of the
Roman empire It is equally ovluont that the
Holy Spirit attended the truth diffused in
this manner with converting Influence , nnd
that ns inpully ns the truth was dissemi
nated It is mnlnly by the lnnguago em
ployed by the early apologists and contro
versialists that wo nro Informed con
cerning the wonderful growth of the
church and her rapid advance on the
world The triumphs of Christianity In so
short n Period ran onl.V bo accounted for on
the assumption that the Christian host wns
constantly bolng swelled by the nddltlon of
large numbers In succeeding nges similar
outpourings of the Spirit were attended with
the same effect What was the reformation
but the glorious revival of religion ! It was
then the Spirit convmcod men ot sin , right
eousness nnd of Judgniont , Thcro were
stormy controversies tor truth nnd right , but
these did not stand in the way of conviction
of sin and conversion to God , A largo part
of the tlmo of the reformers wns taken up in
clvlng counsel to the Inquiring and the
tempted , Thn questions which were publicly
dubatod often received their Importnucofrom
the connection which they had w Ith personal
Interests of souls in distress nbout thu wny
of salvation This state of things reigned
throughout whole countries Almost the
entire continent ot Europe wns shaken So
It has over been In all periods and every land
The spirit ot God has moved over the dark
chaos of mails sinfulness , nnd by
the use of proper ugoncioa has devel
oped a higher nnd better stito of life ,
'llioro have been many remarkable religious
nwakcnlngs in our own land , and even In
our own day That of lS i "bogon with A
pouring out from on high of thu spirit nnd
grnco of supplication amid ouo of 'thu great
est commercial ularins which our country
over experienced Although calamities ot
this kind usually nroduco a hardening effect ,
yet It pleased God nt that tlmo by the plow
share of his judgmunt to furrow the ground
for the precious seed of salvation , nnd to
make distresses touching worldly cstato to
nwnken dcslro for durable rlchos , and to call
forth spiritual yearnings and thlrstings nflor
the fountains of living waters Slnco then
the revivals under the leadership of Moody
nud other eminent evangelists in this coun
try nud in Europe have boon reuiaricabla in
power and extent
From this wo learn that Gnu Is willing
now to pour His spirit upon the church Ho
Is doing this lie stands pledged to do this
Wc need the spirit of Gods loyo to
strengthen , unite and make us effectual

How to I'ICSI-I'VI' Ilia I'MglU'C
Women who wish to prcsorvo the
sllmness and contour of their figure
must begin by learning to stand well ,
says Dross That is explained to mean
the throwing forward and upward of the
chest , the llattonitig of the back , with
the shoulder blades hold in tholr proper
places , and the doflnite curving in the
small of the back , thus throwing the
whole weight of the body upon the hips
No ether women hold themselves so well
ns the aristocratic English women
Much of their beauty lies in their proud
enrriago , the delicate erectness of their
llgurcs and the line poise of their heads
Tlio same nristocratlc carriage is
within roach of any American girl who
takes the pains to have it ; it is only the
question of a few years of eternal vigil
ance , never relaxing her watchfulness
over herself ; and , sitting or standing ,
always preserving her erectness and
pose , the result being that at the end of
that tiroo it lias become second nnturo
to her , and slio never afterward loses it
This , in tv great pieasuro preserves the
liguro , becausq H keeps the muscles
firm and well strung , and prevents the
sinking down of Iho liesh around the
waist and hips , so common in women
over thirty , nndnvhich is perfectly easy
to escape Another thing to avoid is a
bad hubit of going : up stairs , which most
women do bent forward w tli the chest
contracted , which , , as well as an indo
lent , slouchy mnntior of walking , is in
jurious to thu heart and lungs

What do you tncnn'r" ' half a dozen
women demanded at once

married woman of today is of three
classes the woman who puts her nus-
band and his interests llrst , the woman
who considers her individuality and interests
torests of equal importance with her

purple and the dahlia colors are the

Tribune The vegetable kingdom is

a rich blackish purple cnllod aubergine

a somewhat lighter shade of the same
reddish tone of color , and the several

Hlnok Unilorwenr In Fashion
Black Ib at prcfout the popular color
for undorwenrcand flguros largely in

THE WAY TO GET TO THE LARGEST IMPLEMENT HOUSE IN THE WORLD
coptlon gowns mndo with V or surplice
throats und sleeves meeting the short
glove , but there are shown full dross
toilets for young ladies with the same
characteristics , says the Now York
Times The cobweb muslins meriting
tlio term long ago applied to Indian
fabrics , woven wind are partly ro-
sponslblo for this happy tendency
These muslinsaro so transparent and so
oxquiaitoly tinted that fair shoulders
and arms veiled by them becomes yet
fairer
The insertion of a sleeve in the low
necked ball dress tends in tlio same di
rection , the moro that these sleeves nro
made to copy in effect the high shoul
ders of the street toilets The sleeve is
in 11 llutcd puff , looking , on a rounded
und snowy arm like the capital on a
marble pillar ; in rosette form the full
ness of the lower edge plaited In a
bunch under an urmnmont upon tlio top
of thu arm ; in Grcok drnporv , whoso
graceful fall over the shoufdor nnd
upper arm perhaps prepared the wuy
for the more decided sleeve , and of festoons
teens of fringe when fringe is used upon
the dress
Kponomy In Drrss
Although woman ' s dress never ap
peared moro expensive than now , yet it
never afforded such possibilities for
economy says the New York Times Its
combinations of material and color , its
wonderful sleeves , its mllnito variety
and endless oddity of draporics , glvo
such scope to the ingenuity of tlio econ
omist as tills her heart with joy ' und her
purse with saved pennies grown into
dollars The fichus the zouavo , and
figaro , and toreador jackets , , tlio bolted
matinees , nnd comfortable house blouses
are not reckoned least among the aids
to economy , while the Helm , of gold
braid , of lace , of lisso , and ull airy
fairy textures , is one of the prettiest
ndditions to athoatro or reception , und
after to an evening toilet It has its 1
ether uses also The gold flohu , for in
stance , may convert a sill ; with imper
fect or torn bodice into the most ele
gant of theatre dresses , while the llttlo
jaekots and the mntineo waists work
wonders with old skirts
A Unicjito Klornta Costume
A Florida lady has hit upon n design
for a dress which is certainly original
if not tasteful The Tampa News terms
it a rattlesnake dress , " und describes
it as follows : "It is of the oillel shndo ,
a rich shade of brown , line and beauti
ful in toxluro It is a tailor-raado
gown , strictly on the severe English
style ; a perfectly plain skirt with u
panel about seven inches wide of the
tanned skin of the rattlosnnko The
skin is a beautiful specimen of its kind
A polonaise , nlso severely plain , closed
at the side with straps of snnkoskin
and buckles A vest , V shape , of the
skin and collar and cult of the same
With it will bo worn a holmot-shnpod
hat trimmed with material to match
the dross , but the visor will bo covered
with snukeskin The shoos , the uppers
made of material the same as the dress ,
and lipped witli snakeskin complete
the unique costume It will bo won
derfully pretty nnd effective "
PADDY AND HIS PIPE
Its Mme mil Or Ink to lllm and It
Comforts His Bowl
The most painstaking process I have
seen in Ireland is the filling und ignit
ing of an Irishman's pipe , says a writer
in the New York Sun Among the
poorer classes the pipe is almost in
variably made of clay It is so short
that when fixed between his teeth the
bowl touches the end of the nose
Sometimes the owner of his pipe carries
a little tin cup like the top of an oint
ment bo& , which ho places in his vest
pocket , independent of the pipe
This he places over the mouth
of the pipe when it is lit
On the train going from Cork to
Youghul I watched an old man getting
ready for a smoke Ho first took from
his pocket about two inches of black
plug tobacco culled twist It looked
strong Then from his trousers pocket
he fished a knife with a bludo four
inches long Ho bognn paring off the
tobacco in thin slices from the plug
until there was 11 llttlo mound of it
'
in his hand By crushing his palms
together ho ground the tobacco
into small plecos All this consumed
ten miuutos Apparently the to
bacco was ndt flno enough to suit him ,
for ho began picking the largur pieces
upurt with his thumb and forefinger
After the dose hnd been prepared to
his satisfaction ho poured it into the
bowl of the pine by making a funnel of
his right hand Ho then placed the
stem between his tooth and sat looking
at the bowl cross-eyed for fully flvo
minutes anticipating the pleasures ho
would enjoy when the pipe was lit Ho
opened the way to a conversation when
anticipation had bcon exhausted by
saving :
Have yo ever a match , sir ? "
"I gave him ono Then came the
most interesting part of the perform
ance Ho placed the match carefully
between the thumb and forefinger of
his right hand , so that only 11 quarter
of an inch of wood projected In the
ether hand ho grasped the pipe With
a quick downward stroke ho struck the
end of the match sovorul smart sliding
blows and ignited it With a dollbj
oration which was tantalizing
ho hold the match until it
was half consumed nnd then
sucked the fliuno into the nipo As the
tobacco bognn to glow a stream of smoke
as black as that from a steamships fun
nel , poured out into the car and a look
of beatific coutont settled upon the old
mans fuco This look was the outward
oxprossiou of un icwurd satisfaction
such as could not have bcon drawn by
the smoker from a good cignr , and
which found vocal expression from a
nimbus of smoke :
Ah sir ! Its mate and dhrink tome ,
sir , It comforts mo bowl 1"

THE MARRIAGE CONTRACT

CJcnliu .No r-iH-e'al ' Irlvllrce
I should say myself , from the llttlo I
have observed , that the nverage man is
in 110 respect superior intellectually to
the average woman , while the names of
Mary Somerville , of George Sand , of
Mrs Browning and of many others are
sulllciont to establish that women of
genius are tall and strong enough to
stand bosldo in on of genius nownnd for
ever Hut senilis so-cttllod Is to mo
a very unknown quantity , writes Robert
Buchnnan in the Loudon Telegraph I
deny that it has any privileges what
ever , or that it can make any laws for
itself outbido the laws of love and sym
pathy by which the highest und lowest
live
Sofarasthis very question of mar
riage is concerned , our 111011 nnd nomen
of genius have often got into serious
trouble not , I thinkbecause they have
erred in their interpretation of its sanc
tions , but bucnuso they have generally ,
in the face of publicopinionoverlooked
the contract and searched everywhere
for the sacrament Nothing proves so
completely tlio necessity of science of
human sentiment , as opposed to the
still lingering dogmas of nonhuman
spirituality , us the conduct of mon like
Shelloy'and women like Georges Sand
Twontyfold intellectual power would
not save them from condemnation Unless -
loss genius is n synonym for goodness ,
it is a sham and a phantomund goodness
the soul of human sentiment , believes
that no intellectual power whatever cau
justify the shameless profanation of nny
one human function , the cruel rending
asunder of any ouo human tie
Women \ \ lie Dent Cnro for Opint * > n.
Nobody " said a man whoso Ions
residence in Now York entitles him to
the distinction of being u deep and old
observer , * 'is so utterly indifferent to
public opinion ns a fashionable woman
She really does not care n rap ono wny
or the ether what the world thinks of
her as long ns she has a chance to exor
cise her pet hobbles I suppose three
of the most tremendous crusades that
have eve tukon place against woman
kind were , in the first place , the move
inent against wearing corsets ; then the
agitation about the cruelty of women
using the dead bodies of beautiful bong
birds as ornaments for tlio.r hats ; and
thirdly , the cruelly and injustice of big
hats in thontorj Yet today the woman
go gloriously forth I need to the limit ,
with their hats covered with thocorpses
of beautiful birdB , and wearing hats
that would shame the mainsail of a
down-oust schooner Man is of no ac
count whatever when ho throws himself
against a woman's notion of fashion "
