Mr. Wlse presented the report of tl.e
street committee for the month. All the
important luminous lias been published.
The recommendation of the committee as
te the acceptance of that portion of the
Lancaster and Susquehanna turnplke com
pany in the city limits, abandoned by the
company, was approved. Common council
concurred.
Select council also approved of the ree ree ree
ommendutlon nfthe committee, allowing
the street railway company le construct a
turnout en North Duke, street, south of
Walnut, in which action common council
concurred.
Mr.. Haines presented the report of the
market committee containing a recom
mendation that a fish market be established
with asphalt paving and proper sewer con
nections, and that it lie given a fair trial.
With these precautions the commlttee
thought that it would net he offensive te
adjoining property owners.
He also presented a resolution authoriz
ing the street commlttee te have the east
and south avenues at the market house
paved with asphalt blocks and the pave
ment around the market house paved w lth
asphalt sheeting, at a cost net te exceed
fl.OOO.
In support of the resolution Mr. Haines
said the cltv has built a handseme market
heuse audit would lie a pity If the street
around the market heuse was allowed te
remain In its present condition. Ditches
were made for sewer connection, every
thing Is tepsy turvey and this work should
be done.
Mr. Haines' attention was called te the
resolution adopted by common council
fireviding for the paving with asphalt
ilocksef Market street between Grant and
West King.
Mr. Jtiuiile said the proper way te have
the work done was tohuveit go through
its regular channel, the street committee.
Fer las part he did net think It proper te
spend se much money for this purpose, at
this time of year, and he moved that the
matter be referred te the street committee.
a bkeezv luseumiex.
Mr. Haines said one way of defeating the
proposed improvements washy referring
it te the street committee, and trying en
the gag game. If he was te be treated that
way because he ill I net say " yea, yea,
nay, nay," te everything his lordship said
it was all right, lie had no mere interest
in this paving than any ether member of
ceuncllr.
At this stage Mr. Riddle raised the point
of order that the speaker was net confining
himself te the question before council, but
was reflecting en a member of the branch.
Mr. Haines said he was speaking en the
question. He was giving the reasons why
an effort was being made le defeat the im
provement by Mr. Riddle. He would like
te see this pavement laid for the benelit of
every man who does business at the Central
market, for the benefit of ladles who de
tne marketing principally, while Mr.
Riddle would have the surroundings re-
malu as they new are ami have mud
dragged from the street te the handsome
new lioer, anil make unnecessary work
for the janitor.
Mr. Riddle in reply said the gentleman
gras mistaken when he referred te him as
alsldcf te apply gg law. He was here as
29.
a member en the sanie footing a Mr.
Haines. It was discourteous in Mr. Haines
te charge him using personal spleen te
defeat anything he bad brought 'up. This
mcaaure Is no different from tome
ethers. The rule for years was te refer all
matters rotating te street Improvements te
the street committee, and the committee
reported te councils Its conclusion as te
w bother they should be made. IIe was net
opposed te the market house. He had
voted for It, he wanted things dene In
order, hut te accommodate the gentleman
he would withdraw the motion te refer te
the street committee.
Mr.Wlae did net think the fund set npart
for asphalt blocks could be used for asphalt
sheeting.
Mr. Erismsu was opposed te paving the
market house avenue with asphalt blocks,
because it was tee smooth for a horse te
walk en. IIe thought It should be bcigian
block.
Mr. Haines' resolution providing for the
street committee te contract for the work
was defeated by the following vete :
Messrs. Haines, Itehrer, Schum and
Stermfeltx. 4. voted aye.
Messrs. Erlsmnn, Everts, Riddle, Wlse
and Leng, president, S, voted no.
Mr. Riddle moved tltat the whole matter
be referred te the street committee, non
concurring in tlie action of common council
providing for the paving of Market street
wllh,asphalt block.The motion was adopted.
PUKE stuket erapk.
Mr. Riddle called up the petition ectiM
upon at the special meating for the change
of the width of pavements en east' slde of
Duke street, between Lemen and .lame.
The resolution providing for an addition of
one feet te the ttresent width was adopted.
Common council concurred. .
The resolution providing for a change of
the grade of the street was next called up.
Mr. Wise was opposed te ttie oily going
te any expense te have the grade changed.
The resolution, was defeated and Mr.
Erisman then presented ene providing
that the grade of the street shall be changed
but the expense of relaying the pavements
shall 10 paid by tlie property owners. This
resolution was adopted. Common coun
cil concurred.
Mr. Kverts prosentod the report of tlie
lamp commlttee for the mouth, showing
the Mils approved.
Mr. Itehrer called the attention of coun
cils te the bad condition of the streets
through which ths Lancaster City Street
railway passes, said the company does net
keep that part of the street in repair which
the erdinance requires. He referred par
ticularly te the streets north of the railroad.
Hfl moved that the chairman of the street
commlttee notify the officers of the com
pany te repalr these, streets a' once, mid if
the company full te de se lll.it the street
commlttee have de work dene and add
twetity percent, for a penalty, The motion
was adopted. Common council concurie 1.

Tlie following petition was -presented
and referred te the street committee :
By Mr. Rill : Fer the repair of gutter et
Laurel nnd Lafavette streets.
Mr. Daumgardner Introduced au ordi
nance transferring $2,500 from the soweraiie
and drainage fund te the fund for micud
amizlng streets. He stated that the street
committce would be satisfied with l,500
and the figures in the ordinance were
changed accordingly.
Mr. Cuinmings, for the street committee,
said that when tlie erdinance was first
framed it was supposed that no inore
sewers would have te be built. This Is
net the case, hewever, and mere money Is
new needed for the sewer and drainage
fund than In the fund for macadamizing
purposes. By the appropriation of $1,600
both appropriations would held out. The
erdinance was ordered te be printed.
Presldent Beaid appointed Jehn Cres
batwha member of tlie street committee
in place of D. E. Leng, who was elected a
president of select council.
Mr. Altlck presented a lcsolutlen that
the street cominlttee be authorized te ad ad
vertNe for proposals and enter Inte a con
tract far laying asphalt blocks en the half
squai e of Market struct between We it
King and Grant streets, provided the prop
erty owners shall contribute $200 towards
tills work, the cost te he taken from the
belglati block fund. The resolution was
adopted.
Mr. Altlck presented the following peti
tion :
We, the undersigned residents of North
Duke si root, betweeu Chestnut and Wiiltuit
streets, respectfully petition your lionor lienor lioner
ablo bodies net te ghe permission for the
laying of a turnout in said square of North
Duke street, for the reasons that the under
signed would be 'greatly Inconvenienced
and annnred by the same, and that public
welfare docs net demand it. We submit
that there are already two turnouts within
two squares of cacIi ether en North Duke
street, and that one of them Is in the next
squaroteus. If the business of the com
pany would enable them te use thren turn turn
e Us lu four squares, then it would bccui
lsrge enough te warrant the de
manil that the cars should run lu a
continuous circuit, without any turn
outs whatever, thus avoiding tlie annoy
ance of the traveling public by possible de
lays at turnouts, and doing awav with the
defacement nnd encuinhrauce of the Mt roots
by the turnout tracks. There is no reason
vhv the cars should net go out ene street
and In another, following each ether lu a
contiiiuetiscirojltliisthoydu"IuothorciticH.
We further submit that this square of
North Duke street already suffers morn
than any ether square, in town from the
street car tracks, Hiid we should net bj
asked te endure the additional uunoysiice
of a turnout. That this Is true may be seen
at the Duke street bridge, whero only ene
half of the driveway Is safely available for
vehicles, and thou" only by most careful
attention. We submit that the cune of a
turnout track and Its Junction with the
straight truck make It a terror te owners
and drivers of vehicles, and that a street of
which sevcral squares are new being laid
with line pavemeuts should net be defaced
with turnouts.
The petition was signed by nearly all the
property owners en this square. The
prayer of the petitioners was grunted. In
select council it was laid en the table, be be bo
cause common council by adopting the
recommendation of the street committce
gave the company permission te construct
the turnout against which this pretest is
filed.'
When the report of the market commlt cemmlt commlt
teo came ever from select council and was
read a lively discussion followed a motion
te concur in the action et select council in
regard te the retention of the llsh stands
in the new nurket house, Messrs. Altlck
and Kburinaii opjiesed the concurrence, an
they stated that the phce could net be kept
clean owing te insulllclent sowerageaud
it was a nuisance in summer. Mr. Frantr
thought the market committee had inves
tigated the matter and their action should
be given some consideration. The motion
te concur was adopted.
A Special Meeting Called.
C u account of a misunderstanding us te
the action of councils en the street com
mittee report, a special meeting has been
called for te-morrow evening te conslder
the report of the street committee. The
members of selcct council wero under the
impression last night that the report and
recommendations of the street commlttee
had been adopted by select council and
concurred lu by common council.
The endorsements en the report of
the street commlttee are " Read
in select council, " ' Read in "common
council, " and net "read and adopted."
One of the recommendations et the com
mittee granted the street railway company
permission te place n turnout en North
Duke street, south of Walnut, and select
council laid a pretest against Its construc
tion en the table, because it was of the im--prcsslen
that couiineu.councll had adopted
the pretest and afterwards concurred lu
the supposed action of select council in
granting permission for the turnout.
Councils expect at this special meeting
te get matters untangled, decide whether

1 0H Directors-Paper On Inferes! Ing
Milljeets Read and Discus.!.
The school directors of Lancaster city
and county met In annual session at the
court heuse this morning, witii a smalt
attendance.
County Superintendent Breeht called the
lustttute te order and ssld the institutes
heretofore had been held during the week
of teachers' Institute. This year the time
was changed after consulting with repre
sentatives of school beards lu all sections
or the county.
Thern were many Important matters, he
continued, that could be profitably consid
ered by a directors' Institute. Among them
he noted the building of school hotises and
heating and ventilating the same. He also
thought prevision should be made for the
expenses of annual Institutes of directors,
Capt. Jehn R. Brlcker, of Lit Hz, was
elected president of the Instltiiteand Henry
G. Rush, of Peque.i, and S. S. Zug, of
Raphe, seoretarles.
Capt. Bricker, upon taking the chair,
rettt'Hwsl thanks fbr the honor conferred.
IIe spoke nfthe imiMirtanrn of the oflice of
school director, and said If the duties of the
olllceare properly performed the schools of
tlie district arc a success.
" What use shall we make of extra ap
propriations" was the llrst subject en the
pregramme. It was treated at length In a
paper read by Henry G.Rush.ef Foqiten. He
said educators as n rule took the position
that tlie extra appropriation granted by
the state should be used in the purchase of
text books for the children, the building of
additional school houses, the expenditure
of money In introducing industrial depart
ments in the schools te turn out tnechanica,
or te ralse the salaries of teachers, but lie
could net treat the subject from either of
tliose standpoints.
IIe first discussed the methods of taxa
tion which he charged were unfair. Real
estate only is taxed for school purposes and
although that real estate Is encumbered the
owner must pay tax en Its full assessed
value while the capitalist who holds the
liens against real estate escapes school
taxation. The real estate of Lancaster
county ussessed at $82,000,000 is rneiunberc d
by $21,000,000 mortgages and judgments,
and the holders or these $21,000,000 oseapo
taxation.
l'roierty has depreciated, while taxes
liave net. A man may pay 00 a year
school tax, and net be worth a dollar, and
e man may Imi worth 100,0e0 and pay no
school tax. Frem the aoevo statistics one
third of the school tax of this comity should
be paid by the holders of Interest bearing
certificates, nnd yet net one dollar Is pilu
uy these neuierr, the conclusion tue os es
savlsl reached was that the extra appreprl
ntten should be expended in thu same
manner that tlie taxes raised en the real
ostate is oxpended.
Tlie question was further discussed by
A. K. Andrews, of Providence ; J. M.
Frantr, Idiucaster township, and II, Ezra
Ilcrr, of West Lampeter. Tlie last named
Inqiiired for information as te when the
change was made, by which capital was
exempted from school tax.
Chairman Brlcker replied that the Legis
lature made the change through a cry iiiude
that capital would be driven out of the
state If the tax was net removed from capi
tal Invested In tlie state. He cited several
Instances that come te his knowledge of
capitalists removing from the state te New
Jersey and Dolawure where money wus
exempt from taxation, such as was then
imposed en it in Pennsylvania.
Superintendent Breeht closed the dis
cussion, and made an earnest pica for the
expenditure ofthe extra appropriation lu
Improving the schools of the county and
making an effort te have thorn better than
they new are.
".Should tlie county liavna uniform coil r se
of study" was the next subject en the pro pre
gramme. The subject was opened by
Simen L. Brandt, of East Denegal, lie
took the aftlrmatlva side of tlie question
There is system and uniformity In
ether avonues of lifi, and why
should thore net be in tlie school room.
There is uniformity in church work and
the Sunday schoolroom, and It was far
mere important that unllermity should be
the great essential ofthe school room.
In the graded schools ofthe county there
Is geed work accomplished. Geed work
cannot be accomplished without unifor
mity of action, and it uniform ceurse of
study. Seme of the pupils refuse te take
up all the branches named in the curri
culum, and that IsadlfUcuity met with In
many county schools.
Mr. Tahudy, or Lltltr, said that lu his
lioreugh there was a uniform course of
study and It worked well.
Mr. Hepp, of Lltltz, asked howaunlferm
system would be applicable in nil Die
schools of the county.
Prof. Breeht said there was no dtfllculty
about having a uniform ceurse of study in
tlie country schools. The school beards
should lay out a uniform ceurse for all the
diircrent grades ami adhere te it.
Mr. Brickorspekoof the system in vegue
in the schools of his district. He was op
posed te thu study of technical grammar
and literature In the country schools. Tech
nical grammar was of no earthly account,
and of Utara'ure the scholars get but a
smattering of it and it does net benefit
them.
M. N, Drubaker, of Ml. Jey, said direc
tors should visit schools out of their dis
tricts, and if they find a better system pre
vailing In ether districts adept it.
Israel Krb tavered a uniform course of
study. He thought grammar and litera
ture important studies nnd said they should
be taught in all schools.
II. II. Mycis, of Mount Jey, thought that
tatchcrs who de net dcvldte from the text
bMkH de net have uny business lu the
school room. He favored pupils gathering
Information from the outside world.
Parents can advance their children if they
wish te.
Superintendent Breeht thought home as
sistance te the pupil a geed thing. It whs
the duty ofthe teacher if the pupil catnn te
school with lessens thoroughly prcpired te
take up the thread of knowledge learned
at home and develop It.
Mr. Rush said some educators take the
position that six hours of school work is
sufficient, and that there should he no
stu ly at home, hecause of the disposition
te cramming the mind of the growing
child, which is considered by these edu
cators as an injury. He believed that
home asslstance was a geed thing, Iki
cause it made the study at school easier.
Mr. Fran tz closed the discussion with nn
earnest plea for a mil form course of study,
which could he host brought about by a
uniformity in text books. He deneunced
the practice of frequent change of text
I leeks as Injurious te the pregress of the
schools.
Superintendent Breeht called the roll nt
tlie close of the morning sossleu, and It
was found that 85 school districts were rep-
reseiittHl by 103 directors.
