The rest of the sal aries ramjitiK from $ -10 to $ ( iO per month , according to the character of the certillciitos held and the kind of work that had been ilctio by those who had been employed during the past year. A proviso vise was added that if any teacher should enter Into any other business than that for which ho was hired by the board It should act us a revocation of their contracts. It was also provided that principals should receive additional p-iy t the rate of * T > for the first two rooms under their supervision , and $1 1'or each succeeding room.

President \Vells stated thatho had entered into contracts with all the publishing linns as authorized , and tliat thov hud all given bonds excepting S. C. Griggs & Co. , who had refused to do so. tlo had also placed the order with the latter linn as Superintendent Sawyer had thought It absolutely necessary to have ono of the books which was ou'their list. Superintendent Sawyer reported that the work of moving the laboratory and museum to the high school building was completed. The work of opening bids for fuel was then commenced , and the dozen or two coal dealers who were present began to grow uneasy. The bid of II. A. Hough was 5.00 per cord for cottonwood , and $ J.2S per cord for willow body wood. It was found to bo lower than any of the others , and the contract was awarded him. After the bid * for co.ll had boon examined Shubcrt recommended that the contract for hard coal bo awarded to the Corbon Coal company , whoso biu was $7.r > 0 for any size , stating" that that was a very low bid , coal being $8.20 on board. cars. Ho also recommended allowing the contract for soft coal to A. T. Thatcher & Co..at Si.'Jo per ton. The recommendations wcro adopted and the contracts lot. J. II. E. Clarke of the Carbon Coal com pany rose before the motion had scarcely been announced as carried mid with consid erable show of linger stated that hu had not been given a fair show. The board had let the contract for soft coal to Thatcher & Co. when his blu was lower than Thatcher's. Ho strongly hinted that It was a put-up job between Cox , Thatcher's manager , and the board. This brought Cox to his feet and a war of words was well under way when it was nipped in the bud by a rap from the chairman's gavel. ' ' Bids wo'ro tho'n opened for the outhou o at the Washincton avenue building according to the plans drawn by S. E. Maxon and Boll & Borlinghof.

The artesian well ut Lake Manawa is attracting a good deal of attention and ninny roniarkablo euros are reported as having boon nuulo by the use of its waters. Last Hpring the well was sunk to n depth of 18J foot , and a handsome pavilion built around it. The well was originally sunk in 1880 , when the hotel was boinjr built. Its strong mineral qualities \voro at once discovered and a quantity of ino-wator was sent to Prof. August Bode of Milwaukee , with the following result : . Sulphate of iron , O.f ) .

The ladies of the Uroadway Methodist Episcopal church will give a sociable next Thursday evening , September ! ! , at the residence of Mrs. Dorland11 Vine street. Everybody come , as this is the hibt social of this conference year. New Sellout President Wells of the board of education emphatically contradicts the assertion of an evening paper last night that the change lu school books under tha now arrangement will amount to 70 per cent. ' 'It will amount to less than ! > ' > pur cent , " said the provident , "to tlioto who have to buv all new books , but for pupils who have some old boons to exchange It will bo considerably less than that. For Instance Irish's arithmetic , which has boon used for many ye.irs , has bton dis placed and Circcnlenl's substituted.

One would not Judge from the appearance of City Auditor hnngo that he had cither pugilistic tastes or a violent temper , and yet ho showed yostop'iiy ' noon tha't when an oc casion presented Itself ho could hniulle any body who wasn't too largo or too ferocious. In the summer of IbbU n petition was circu lated among the property owners on North Second street asking the council to p.ivo thai Htroot. Tlio petition , It U said , was signed by every property owner on the street and was referred to the lutoAldurman Pat Lacy. It remained In his possession until his death , and a few days ago It was found unions bis papers and turned over to the city auditor. In the meantime Contractor Chris. Straub and some of the other property owners de cided that they did not want the paving done , after all , and they accordingly drafted an other petition asking that n largo amount of paving bo done In that part of the city , but North Second street was left out. When Straub found out that the original peti tion had turned up he wont to the of- tlco of the city auditor yesterday morning and wanted to see It. The paper was shown him , when ho remarked that ho wanted to make a few changes In it , and picked up a pen to carry hi.s intention into elTout. Ho was at once Informed that the paper was the pronerty of the council , and that , no changes could bo made in it. Straub dropped the pen and In a Hash had torn the paper Into frag ments. About this tlmoLango happened to remem ber that when ho was In school ho mid tak"ti Ilrst prize ono time for throwing the hammer , and ho decided to put the strength and skill he had acquired ut that time Into use. In an Instant he had Uiu burlv contractor by thu m.'ck-picco of his coat with ono hand , while thij other found its most appropriate place almost instinctively , and the Contractor found himself drifting toward the outer door of the oflleo with irresistible force and alarming rapidity. When the door was reached the city auditor raised ono of his foot , and dropping it on that part of Mr. Str.iub's clothes which Mr. Largo's hand had just loft , Mr Strain ) Hew out inco space. Ho returned at once and prepared to make things warn fortho auditor right there where ho left him. Ono left-hander under the chin changed his mind and ho left the oflleo dis gusted. Lange 'vent to the olllce of the city clerk , \vhero ho tiled an information charging Straub with malicious destruction of prop erty , and ho will probably have a hearing in police court today. Contractor Straub tells a different story from the above. He chums that Lange tried to Jerk the paper away from him when ho was about to make the desired change in it , and in the course of thu squabble the paper was torn. Ono piece of it ciiinc awav in Lance's hand , and that gentleman then throw It in the alley , whore it was picked up by btrnub. Ho thinks if there was any destruction of public records bo will bo able to prove that Lange was re sponsible for it. Two beautiful parks in Morningsule. City water on the highest point in Morningsido. Hie recH. Judge Deemor arrived In the city yester day morning for the purpose of , holding a special session of the district court to hoar the evidence In support of the motion to set. aside the former order of the court fixing the compensation of the assignee and attorneys in the assignment of Thomas Green & Sons. at $3,000 apiece. It was ordered by the court that the evi dence of the assignee and his attorney's sqould be Introduced Hrst , and after the var ious papers connected with the assignment of Green & Sons bad been brought in , Assignee E. E. Hart was put upon the stand. He stated that ho bad accepted the position of assignee and hud filed n bond of J.jS'i.OUO . ' for iho faithful performance of his duties. He had ulbo ap pointed Thomas and Hichard Green to take charge of the stock of the packing house under his direction. He had succeeded in settling the claim of the First National bunk for M-M'.K ) by paying f 'S.OOO. and the money to settle the claim hud been furnished by the Greens and the assignee , all but $4,000 , being furnished by the latter. He bad disposed tjof the block under the order of the court to the best possible advantage of all parties concerned. Ho was put through a crass-examination which took up the eiitlio morning session. In the afternoon Attorney A. T. Klickinpor was put upon the stand and testified to the transactions in connection with the assign ment , substantiating the statements of his client , Assignee Hart. In the midst of his cross-examination ho was temporarily removed to allow George P. Wright to give his testimony as attorney for the First National bank. Ho thought that $ : ) ,000 was u small fee for the work that had been done , but when asked Just what work had been done by the attorneys for the asilgneo ho could not say , although as ho baid ho would like to lirht rato. Fllckingor was then put on the stand to finish his testimony. Attorney McCabe.who did the examining , tried to show that Green had done most of the won ; for which Flick- incor was demandlnc pay. while FllcKlngor held that his labors alone had resulted In tbo amliablo adjustment of the nffiilrs of the tlrm. Ho denied over having had any con versation with Green witli reference to the fee ho expected to charge for his services until after the work had been done and the II mil report rendered. Green tcstitlcd that he had had a conver sation with heart at the outset In wi.ich Hart stated that ho did not euro to collect any fee for his services ns assignee , excepting for just iVhat the time was worth. Ho did not want any person tnge , but wanted to do the business more as a friend than ns an onicor of the court.

Thirteen members of the .Board of Educa tion answered to their nnmcw last night and President Goodman announced that the Hrst thing in order was the election of janitors for the ensuing year. Mr. Martin of the com mittee on heating and ventilation reported that the committee hud been unable to agree upon u report , consequently there was none to present. The chair then announced that the election would proceed and appointed Messrs. iteos and Points ns tellers. At th's ' point lists wcro distributed to the members containing iho names of the several schools and opposite each the name of a per son for janitor. At the iciiuest of Mr. McConnell the secre tary proceeded to toad the names of the pres ent janitors. It appeared that the list fur nished did not agrco with the janitors as they stood last > car and Mr. McCotmclt demanded to know who had pivparoil the list. The Information was not forthcoming and the ballot was ordered to proceed. It had partially proceeded when Mr McConnell niwe to a question of personal privilege and demanded to know who had prepared thu list. He stated that It was not a honnlldo list Of janitor- ) and charged that .some one was putting up a job on the mem bers. bers.Mr Mr Coburn advised Mr. McConnell to subside , saying that ho had heard that ho ( Coburn ) and McConnell were "not in it" and they migbt as well keep still. Mr. Mi'Cnnncll persisted however and was declined out of order. He appealed but It was of no avail. By this time both absentees had appeared and considerable tlmo was taken up In ex- plaininif the situation. After nil these delays the ballot was con cluded. Before the vote was announced Mr. MtConnoll raisrd the point that Jacob Meyer , who had received ten voles for jani tor it the Omaha View school , had no license ns a llreman. Then ensued an acri monious aobato with Messrs. McConnell , Morrison , Spaldlni ; and Wehrer on ono side and MOS.SIS. Smythe , Koc.s , Babcock and Points on the other. AirWohrer stated that the man had no license and the opposi tion held that this made no difference as the man mlirntgot a license before It WHS neces sary for him to tire up.

Shu is a granddaughter of Colonel Preston ( Mr. Stoddard ) . Though knitted together by the strongest affection they are absolutely opposite in every feature of character. Carey is a true southern maiden. She has never been outside the limits of her plantation Home , and is refreshing in her simplicity , graciousness and purity ns the perlumos of th" llowers and vines that bloom everywhere about her. She falls in love with young Armstrong ( Edward Bell ) , a northern , and the tlosged old grandfathorstill full of bliternois for the lost cause , natur ally opposes the union. The love scene between the two young persons is a crucoful and poetic bit of dia logue.

The Star says it transpired during the recent state meeting ot the farmers' alllanco at Warrensburg , Mo. , that there was an organization within the alliance which believed in force as a means to attain the objects of the alllanco. It was the knowledge of the existence of the force element that defeated the sub-treasury resolution , which was championed especially by the latter clement. "Even those delegates who favored the sub- treasury resolution , " continues the Star , "voted against it simply because they desired to defeat tbo force party. " The force party bad forty-eight delegates in the convention. Ono of them told a re porter about the organization and said : "If the minority will not do what the majority wills , " said the gentleman excitedly , "it is bigh time for the majority to hang the mi nority. If ballots wont do the business bul lets will and there are a lot of us pledged to go that far. " Ex-President Hall , who assorts that his life has boon declared a forfeit In the under ground meetings of those people , was and Is keenly nllvo to their existence. Before the meeting nt Portlo Springs ho sent out a loiter , dated August H , to every dclelegato ho could trust , telling him the facts and exhorting him to bo at the convention ready to cruah out the Influence of these socialists , as he called them , in the al llanco.
