Training and Financial Poller of tne Board. .Also Taken I p. The fact that the Board of Education has been holding a number of secret sessions recently has been made public through, the talk of one. of the members who had been present at some, but not all, of the meet ings. The- member in question took um brage at not being Invited .to attend some of the private sessions and this let the tat out of the bag. ' Several of these meetings have been held In' the private office of Superintendent Clifford in the high school building, the object of them being to discuss the ques tion of manual training, which Jt Is pro posed to establish In the high school next year, and to outline the financial policy of the board for the ensuing fiscal year. The last of these private sessions was held Wednesday afternoon in Superintend ent Clifford's office, the purpose of which, it. Is said, was to take some action relative to the recent trouble In the high school caused by the changing of the pupils' books from their proper desks ond In some In stances from the proper classrooms. This mischief, said to be the work of certaiti pupils who got Into tha building after the close of school, prevented the usual studies for almost an entire day until matters were straightened out and the books re distributed. It was reported that the board had decided to recommend the sus pension of the pupllB guilty of the depreda tion, but . forbore taking such action when the guilty ones appeared befrre the board and expressed regret and agreed to pay all damages which bad been sustained by their action. i - ' As a result of the trouble at the high school the board at the secret session Wednesday ordered that all teachers' here after must, at the close of school, see that ' the windows of their respective rooms are ! fastened and must' lock the doors when I leaving their rooms for the day, and that I after that time the janitor of each building will be held responsible for It. The board I also decided to renew Its offer of $25 re ward for the detection of anyone Injuring any of the school buildings or school prop erty. . Members of the board when seen yes terday admitted the holding of these meet ings,' but denied that there was any in tention to keep the business of the board I from the public and that the newspaper l reporters would have been welcome. It has been the custom for the secretary of the board to notify the newspapers of the meetings of the board, but this was not done in the case of the recent meetings held 1n Superintendent Clifford's office. ELECTION AGITATES WOMEf Rule Adopted Regarding? Nominations ' Is Objectionable to Some of Club Members. The approaching election In the Council Bluffs Woman's club Is proving an all ab sorbing topic among the members. The chief interest centers around the. election of a president, for which much coveted office there are several candidates. The ' question now principally agitating the members of the club In whether the nom ', Inatlon Of candidates to be made at a meet ing tomorrow, will preclude the naming of any further candidates on the day of elec tion, to be held Friday, June 6. At a recent meeting of the board of directors of the club It was decided that this year the nominations should be made one month prior to the election and that no other candidates besides those named at this time would be considered on the day of election. This Innovation In the methods of the club la not at all agreeable to a number of the members and there Is talk of them refusing to abide by. the action of the board. The protestants con tend that to adopt such a rule would be unfair to the members joining the club during Msy, as It would practically prevent them from having any voice In the selection of officers for the ensuing year. It Is stated that an effort will be made at the 'meet ing tomorrow afternoon to have this new rule rescinded so as to permit of further nominations on the day of election. Those most prominently mentioned In connection with the ' presidency are Mrs. C. O. Saunders, Mrs. O. H. Richmond. Mrs. F. W. Miller, Mrs. O. D. Wheeler and Mrs. A. R. Woodford. Mrs. Walter I. Smith, who has held the office for two years. Is tbt retiring president. FRUITS ARE BADLY DAMAGED Urowera I'nable to Stay Delaltely !! How Great the) Injnry Will Be. That the frost of Wednesday night baa caused considerable damage to the fruit crop In the vicinity of Council Bluffs and surrounding towns there remains but little douht. but. fruitgrowers - stated yesterday that It would be several days before the exact damage could be estimated. Reports received yesterday in the city Indicated that the apple and plum crops would suffer most, although all small fruits had been more or less damaged. J. P. Hess, one of the largest fruitgrowers In this section of the state, gave it as his opinion yesterday that about half of the blossoma on the apple, plum and cherry trees In this vicinity had been killed by the frost. The grapevines, as far as he was able to ascertain yesterday, appeared to have suffered least. Frank P. Bradle:r, the owner of extensive orchards at Glenwood. estimated that the frcst of Wednesday night would result In the destruction of half of the apple crop In that vicinity. The favorable weather of the last few weeks had brought out the fruit trees ear lier than usual, and in this vicinity the trees were a mass of bloom. The meager reports to hand yesterday Indicate that the cherry trees suffe.ed mcst. but that all small fruit suffered considerably. Tn frs wss entirely unlocked for and tha resultant dsmsge has proven sore blow to the fruit growers, who were looking forward to a most favorable sessoa. Find More Atolea Goods. Constsbls Albert I of Justice Ouren's court and Detective Murphy, accompanied by P. V. O'Neill, a special officer of the Chicago Northwestern railroad, made an other search yesterday of the borne of Otto Paul, a former employe of. the j-aH.road..od yoearthsa an additional large quantity of stolen goods. In addition tu a number of tools and other articles belonging to the railroad company, the officers discovered in the cellar goods which, It Is alleged, were stolen from a freight car fn the local yards last December, and of which they had been unable to secure any trace. Paul, for whose arrest a warraut was Issued at the time of the first search of his home. Is still missing, although the authorities stste they have secured trace of his where abouts and- that his arrest will be but a matter of a short time. Paul Is alleged to have carried on his thieving operations for the last two years, If not longer. NO STRIKE IN COUNCIL BLUFFS Labor Lnlona and Employers tor Most Part Have Already 8la;ne! . Scales. No serious trouble Is looked for in Coun cil Bluffs between organized labor and the employers, despite reports to the contrary. The relations between the employed and the employers In this city are at present most cordial and there will be no walkout on this side of the river. Speaking of the locsl situation a promi nent member of the Council Bluffs Trade and Labor assembly said last bight: "There will be no strike of organized labor In Council Bluffs today. All of the old unions are satisfied with existing conditions: The bosses have signed the scalrs demanded and the relations between the members of the old unions and their employers Is per fectly hsrmonlous. Some of the recently organled unions may have some slight troubles of their own, but they will be soon settled. For Instance, the Teamsters' union, which has but lately organized, has not yet succeeded In getting Its scale signed but the bosses undoubtedly will yield, and I do not look for any trouble from that quarter. The Bartenders' union, another recent organization, has as yet not alto gether fixed up matters to suit It, but the differences now existing will soon be straightened out. I do not look for any organized labor troubles on this side of the river, however threatening conditions appear on the Nebraska side." Matters In District Court. The trial . of the suit of former Street Supervisor G. C. Taylor against the city of Council Bluffs to recover. $30 on back! salary was begun before Judge Wheeler In the district court yesterday. The city sets up a counterclaim of $100, alleging that Taylor had failed to account for that amount in connection with poll tax worked out on the streets. Mayor Morgan, City Clerk Phillips and the aldermen were all In. court as witnesses. The city failed signally to produce any evidence which the court would ' admit to show, that Taylor had tampered pay roll vouchers as alleged. The case Is expected to go to the jury to day. The sealed verdict returned Wednesday night In the suit of H. W. Miller against the State Pavings bank was tn favor of the defendant. The case involved a $100 de posit which the bank claimed had been credited twice, once to the account of the plaintiff and also to the account of bis son. The plaintiff claimed that two de posits of $100 each had been made on the same day and that both accounts were en titled to a credit In this amount. A. L.
