Mounts PAIIK , Juno 10. It was hot hero
today , The nlrv.is thloic nnd heavy , and
that lidded discomfort to tho'0,000 people.
It leaked out that Guttcnburg bookmakers
nnd Fort Ixxs poolrooms woijp doing busi
ness on thcso races. In order 15 stop nil In
formation Rotting from the track the same
old arbitrary proceeding of allowing no one
to leave until after the third race had been
run \vas adopted. The wlro which supplied
the western pool rooms was cut out and the
jtowspnpcr correspondents were unable to
send anything from the grounds until after
the third raco. The track was in superb
condition.
The fourth race was the event of the day ,
the great Eclipse stakes , worth $20,000 to
the winner. From a sportsman's standpoint
It was a disappointment , for it was more like
a procession than a raco. Nobody over saw
n race won in a handler fashion. The great
prowess of Domino , the son of Hlmyar ,
frightened all but Dobbins , Declare , St.
Jullon , Sam Lucas and Hurlfngton out of the
contest.
Domini- * Without u Strn/rglr. /
In fact , It was a foregone conclusion that
Jfceno representative would win. The book
makers had the brown or chestnut favorite
at heavy odds.
Domino was qtllto tractable at the post ,
nnd when Mr. Howe dropped the Hag ho an-
poared slow to move away. llurlinghatnand
Declare were the leaders In the Ilrst fur
long. Rounding the elbow , howcvcr.Domlno.
under a pull , strode up to Declare , and the
Blomton candidate nnd Trio swept head nnd
head Into the stretch , Lamloy moving Dobbins
bins up from behind. When the last quarter
polo was reached Domino's head was to ono
side , showing that Taral had him well In
hand. Declare , on the contrary , was
beginning to hang , and Doggott's
heels wore busy , although his
hands wore quiet. I-iimloy ! was right at
hnnd with Dobbins measuring his opponent's
critically. Ho glanced across at Hurling-
ham , and saw that the son of King Galop
was beaten , raising the second hill. Taral
straightened Domino's head and the race
was over , the favorite romping away from
his field and passing the Judges two lengths
before Dobbins , who disposed of Declare
nfter a brief battle at the furlong polo.
Domino was not the least distressed by hla
efforts and Taral was enthusiastic nbout the
colt. Declare ran a remarkably good race ,
considering the fact that hu was lame in the
paddock before the race. liosults :

amination n few days slnco for n scholarship
offered by Vassnr college. Their papers were
sent east yesterday , ami the successful com
petitor's name will 'bo ' known In a short
time. This scholarship was secured through
the efforts ot thn Western Alumni associa
tion of Vnssar collust ) , of which Miss Eliza
beth Popploton Is president , and Is intended
as an aid to industrious and worthy students
\vhoso means nro limited. The scholarship
Is valued at $1,0)00 , or $400 per year , and will
defray all expenses , oxcotit for clothing ,
through the entire course of four years.
of thn C'mtrAo ,
The chief purpose of the High sciiool
work has not been nnd Is not now to lit
young people merely for college , but to pre
pare them for tlio ordinary business of life
ns well. With this Idea in view Uio courses
have boon made very lloxiblo , allowing
pupils to pursue largely the bent of their In
clinations nnd desires. The results have
demonstrated the wisdom of this plan , for
the High sciiool graduates of Omahn
have as a rule been successful In
business life , and have in many in
stances distinguished themselves as stu
dents in other Institutions ot learning.
Many of them occupy prominent positions
In commercial circles , and this year , at
Harvard , In n class ot 400 , Oscar Quick of
' 01 stood second and Kenny Hillings seventh.
Julia Schwartz of ' 01 competed with 700
others for the Vnssar scholarship two years
ago and won It. At Princeton Herbert
Hogcrs of 'SO is president of his class nnd of
the gleu club. Seven out of the nine Omaha
buys nt Princeton took honors this year.
These are butn few of the instances In which
Omaha High school graduates have done
meritorious work ; the list might bo made
much larger , but It Is largo enough to show
what the school docs for its pupils. Some
Interesting statistics nro now in course of
preparation which show how the Omaha
High sciiool compares with the high schools
in other leading citins of the country , nnd It
is already evident Hint the showing will bo
very Mattering to Omahn.
TJI Ik with Principal I.avvU.
"What is there to bo said to the state
ment that your school Is not sufficiently
practical ? " was asked ot Homer P. Lewis ,
principal of the High school.
"Simply this , " was the reply ; "that it lias
always boon our nlm to make It practical
and that wo believe wo have been
eminently successful. The charge
has been mndo that n very largo percentage
of the boys drop out after pursuintr their
studies for a time in tlio High sciiool , because -
cause It is said , they lind the studies inade
quate to the requirements of the ordinary
affairs of lifo. This is a mistake. Wo have
lately Investigated the matter nnd llnd that
the percentage of these who drop out from
the grades below the Ilich school is nearly
11 , nnd from the High school it is
scarcely C , Many of these who do leave
us nro prompted' to do so by tempting offers
In n business may , n condition of things
which wo cannot overcome.
"Hoys can generally earn higher wages
than girls , and nrp generally called upon by
parents to earn money , before the girls nro.
It is therefore not strange that the prccent-
ngo of girls in attendance should be greater
than that of boys.
'Although it is Disappointing to see a good
student drop out before finishing his
course , it is a healthy . sign in ono wny. It
shows that the nbillties of the High school
students nro appreciated. Only the other
day , ono of our citizens took his boy from
school nnd placea him in n position wliero he
receives $00 per month. Such offers as these
thobois cannot refuse , and the teachers
cannot successfully contend against their
natural desire to accept them.
' Wo think the boys and girls , too , are well
llttcd for active affairs , nnd that to depart
materially irom the present system would
work to their disadvantage. Wo feel proud
of our graduates and , think they are as well
equipped for the duties of lifo a ? arc those of
nuy other High school. " .

Ill the absence of the president nnd vlco
president , Mr. W. N. Babcock was chosen to
preside nt last night's meeting of the Board
of Education.
A communication from the Board of Health
notified the members of the board that n cer
tain nuisance which Is said to oxUJ ,
or will soon exist , in the now
Lothrop school must bo nt once abated. The
said nuisance , so the notice stated , was
what is known ns the "dry closet system. "
The building will not bo accepted by the
plumbing inspector In Its present condition ,
nnd the Board of Health will not permit It
to bo used until n different system of closets
has been , placed In the building.
The I othrop school Is located In
Kountzo Place , nnd Is supplied with
the Fuller-Warren dry closet system of
closets. The notice from the Board of Health
closed by stating that n failure to comply
with the demand of the Board of Health
would subject the members of the Board of
Education to arrest and line. Hcfcrrcd to
ilio committee on heating und ventilation.
The members ot tlio board were not visi
bly affected by the apparent gravity of the
communication.
Current expenses nnd salaries to the
amount of nearly $30,000 were presented nnd
ordered paid.
Treasurer llolln Iteplti-s.
Following this came an interesting com
munication from City Treasurer Bolln touch
ing the subject of placing school funds on in
terest in the bank to the credit of the school
distrlcl rather than kocping the funds in
tlio custody of tlio treasurer. The communi
cation from Treasurer Bolln was nn nnswcr
to n letter of inquiry sent him by resolution
of tliu board asking if ho had taken any
steps to comply with the law of the amended
charter requiring that the school funds bo
placed on Interest In the bank lo tlio credit
of the district.
Tlio treasurer explained that ho had given
the matter some consideration nnd had
sought legal advice on the subject. Ho had
como to the conclusion , nfter careful consid
eration , that If ho should deposit the school
funds in n bank at interest , as directed by
the provisions of the recently amended char
ter , such n step might release the sureties
on ills bond , In view of tills danger ho had
decided to proceed very cautiously in the
matter. Continuing the communication
says :
"Tho first question to bo borne distinctly
in mind is that the school district of Omaha
is separato'nnd distinct from the corporation
of'tho city of Omaha. I nm treasurer of the
school district of Omaha not under any pro
vision of tlio charter of tlio city of Omaha ,
but by virtue of section lii , subdivision 17 ,
of chapter Ixxix of the Statutes of Ne
braska , in relation to schools. This latter
chapter prescribes my duty nnd is the only
authority by which 1 can act. In nil legis
lation of the state municipal atTairs and
educational nfTnirs have ever been regarded
and treated as distinct subjects , as they
nro in fact , so that I am led to
the conclusion that if the provisions
of the amended charter were dollnito with
relation to my unties as treasurer of the
school district that part of the act would bo
unconstitutional nnd void because contained
in nn net relating to nn entirely different
subject. "
The treasurer further states that oven if
the amendment to the charter bearing upon
this subject be considered valid the provi
sions , ho said , wcro not sunlcicntly definite
to make it possible for him to comply with
the provisions intelligently.
In concluding the communication Mr.
Bolln says : "My duty to tlio school dis
trict appears to bo plain , that I ulono nm
the custodian of tbo funds and responsible
for their safe keeping. "
The communication was referred to the
committee on Judiciary and the attorney for
the board.
Max Meyer & Co. called the attention of
the board to the fact that the roof of the
High school tower was leaking and the ma
chinery of the clock was in danger of being
ruined ,
Vitrified llrick for 1'iivliiir.
The board passed a resolution instructing
the president and secretary to sign for vit
rified brick for paving South Tweiity-i'inth
avei.ue paving district No. 517.
Mr. Elguttcr introduced n resolution bear
ing upon the question of having the school
funds placed in the bank on interest to the
credit of the school district. The resolution
embraced the charter provision which reads
as follows : "Tho treasurer shall keep all
money In his hands belonging to4he city or
school district of the , city separate and
distinct from his own money , and ho
is hereby expressly prohibited from
using any such money or nny war
rants or other securities in his
custody or receiving any interest thereon
cither directly or indirectly for his own use ,
or benollt , or for the use or benefit of any
other person or corporation except said ciiy
or the school district therein. Any viola
tion of this provision shall subject him to
immediate removal from olllco by the city
council , which is hereby authorized to de
clare such ofllco vacant ; and tlio mayor ,
with the consent of tlio city council , shall
appoint n successor , who shall hold his olllco
the remainder of the term unoxpired
of such oftlccr so removed. All interest on
moneys of the city shall bo reported by the
treasurer to the city council and comptroller ,
and shall bo covered into the general fund
of such city , and all interest on moneys of
the school district shall bo reported to tlio
Board of Education and placed to the credit
of the school fund. "
IiinUlH on Ilunlc Deposits.
The resolution further provides that all
funds of the school district of Omaha re
ceived by the city treasurer should bo
placed on deposit in the banks of the city
offering to pay the highest ratu of interest
for the use of the monoy.
It also provided for advertising for bids for
the funds to be deposited. Tliu plan sug
gested in tlio resolution was that Interest
should bo paid on monthly balances nnd the
bank receiving the funds should bo obliged
to furnish a satisfactory bond to bo ap
proved by the board. No deposit shall bo
mode In any . . bank . having . . loss than . J'-f"
-
o i paid up capital stock , ami no deposit should
lie made in any bank in excess of45 per cunt
oi i of the paid up capital of the bank.
The ireasurer was required by this resolu
tion to keep nil school district funds sop.
arato from other funds and In no case will
ho bo permitted to use , either directly or in-
dirontly , such warrants In his keeping nnd
custody for his own use or for Uio bouolil of
nny oilier porfon or persons or corporations
except the school districts of this city.
The resolution was referred to the Judi
ciary committee and thn utlornoy to bo
reported back to the board nt the tlrst meet
ing In July ,
Mr. Elguttor offered nnothcr resolution
which was intended to clear thoslutonnd lot
the board start afresh in the attempt to
gel satisfactory bids for the heating
and v&ntllatlng plants of the Hickory uud
Long schools , lie supported the resolution
by saying thai the board had experienced a
good deal of trouble In trying to got satis
factory contract for tlio heating of these
now buildings and ho thought the host way
would bo lo reject all the , bids and begin
over again ,
Mr. Gibson was opposed to the resolution.
Ho held that there had already been too
much delay ia the matter.
Opponent to Such Delay. ?
The board was wasting time and money
by failing to award the contract for these
buildings. The longer the board
hesitated the longer it would bo necessary
to pay a high priced architect to superintend
the erection of these buildings ,
Mr. Knodoll was also opposou lo the ro-
jeclion of the bida and beginning over again ,
Mr. Morrison was in favor of roadvertli'
o ing. The resolution failed to carry when
i , put lo a vote. Adjourned.
