NOW SUPT. HOWELL
' HAS HIS INNINGS
Concluded from rage 5.
ly had been the evidence should be
heard.
Mr. Wormser The committees' action
Iihr tint n.,r eunnikt ht uueslionedl if It
hud been I would be the tirst to agree to
having the testimony maile public.
Mr. (llbbons iMrs. Booth was niven the
prlvllrgo or thia floor ami by me puuii
cHtlun of he.r spi-fi'li gained the public s
Kytnpathv. She Kuined mine, too she
inude It fine (laughter), but she Is entitled
tn no mure cnimlilerntlon than Is Mr. How
ell. U-t's see that evidence: let's go Into
committee of the whole. I lon t Know
that he Is guilty; I don't know that she
Is innocent.
Mr. Carson I move that Superintendent
IIoWi'II'b request be granted 111 so far as the
evidence of Mrs. I tooth and Mr. MeOlnley
re concerned. The superintendent re.
quests that the testimony be udded to his
Mutcinciit.
The motion brought Sir. Wormser to
his feet. He a l Kind thut the evidence
wis the business of the committee:
that the board ujipruved the commit
tee's action in recommending Mrs.
llooth's vindication, and that it would
be unwise, Indiscreet and impolitic to
npnin bo over the Kt'ounil. M'- Carson
had sinned the report. He had no mur
al right to re-open the matter unless
there whs some new testimony. Mrs.
HooUi's case wns. settled. The evidence
pertained only to her. It wns now the
board's business to consider only Mr.
Howell's guilt or innocence of her
cliaritcs.
Mr. million's motion thut the meeting
E into the committee of the whole for
the purpose of investigation wns car
ried. President Schriefer dei lined to
serve us chairman r.s did Members
Jennings, Williams und Harker. Mr.
Jennings, however, finally consented.
Mr. t'lirson renewed his motion for
the reading of the evidence of Mrs.
liooth, and Mr. Slct-iir.ley that had been
heard before tho committee. Mr.
AVormser Hud Mr. Jacobs opposed It
and Chairman Jennings decided to al
low Attorney O'Wrlen, who represented
the superintendent, the privilege of the
floor.
MR. O'HRIKN'S IIRMAItKS.
Mr. O'Brien stated that the superin
tendent's statement would be incom
plete without the testimony which was
recorded ns having been heard in com
mittee. That testimony was n hoard
record and could properly be made a
part of the superintendent's address.
Superintendent Howell asked no con
eeultnent of all the facts in the case.
He desired the fullest publicity. In nn
rwer to Mr. Wormser he would sny that
no fair-minded man would object to the
puldlctiy of facts that would make
guilty or Innocent a man occupying so
fnercd a trust as that of superintendent
of schools.
Mr. O'Hrlen's last statenvnt evident
ly nettled Mr. Wormser. He remarked
that he hud addressed his colleagues
nnd not Mr. o'lirien nnd thought the
board was capable of deciding upon
Its course if action without let.nl ad
vice except from Us regularly employed
Solii itor.
The superintendent's n Homey nnd
Mr. Wormser repiiitcd in substance
their former remarks and Mr. Williams
mnde a motion that the evidence be
rend. l!y this time the members, the
chairman, the attorneys and the spec
tutors were hopelessly at sea ns to
where the meeting- was at or what busi
ness had precedent. The complication
was inteiisiiied when Mr. Wormser
made another address. Mr. Jennings
pleaded for more cautious procedure
and asked that nil motions bo with
drawn and a new Htnit made.
The start was not made, however,
for sometime; not until after Attorney
Hums, Mrs. Itooth'g representative,
and cx-Judye Knapp, the bonrd's so
licitor, hud been accorded the floor,
and even then, tho proceedings did not
ImmeJIatcly assume tangible form.
At Chairman Jennings' request Mr.
Hums was given an Innings, and In his
deliberate nnd easy style aimed to con
vince the board that while neither Mrs.
Uooth nor Mr. MeOlnley opposed the
ndmlsslon of the troublesome evidence,
its admission was hardly a proper pro
cedure. He likened the case as ana
lagous to court proceedings. (Ira ml
Jury evidence, he said. Is not placed
before the court, nor did it seem proper
to put before the board the evidence
heard before the committee. The right
way to proceed would be for the com
mittee to specify Mrs. Hooth's charges,
if she made any, against Mr. Howell
and then dispose of the case without
the use of dead evidence,
Kx-Judge Knapp then addressed the
board In response to the requests for
enlightenment from several members.
He said it was for the board to deter
mine whether the harsh words used
by Mrs. Hooth were charges against the
superintendent. If It was believed
charges had been openly and publicly
made and worthy of Investigation, it
was certainly the board's right to In
vestigate. He agreed with Mr. Hums
that some kind of tribunal should be
selected If an investigation was de
cided upon and said some method
should be outlined which would not
make unnecessary scandal.
NO LEGAL. OBJECTION".
In debating a motion made by Mr.
Wormser that the whole matter he re
ferred to a snecial committee of three
in conjunction with the three attor
neys for the purpose of outlining a plan
of procedure. Air. Davis requested ex
Judge Knapp to state if there was any
particular reason why the testimony
should not be read.
"There is no lesal objection," was
Judge Knapp's response.
"Then let It be read," said Mr. Da
Vis. "This board has got deep into the
matter and It can't pull out now with
out Injuring both Mr. Howell and Mrs.
Uooth. One of them Is entitled to have
his or her Innocence proved."
Mr. Carson Insisted on the putting of
his motion thut the evidence be read
and made a part of the superintend
ent's statement.
A motion was mnde by Mr. Schriefer
to table Mr. Carson's motion. There
was no end of debate before either was
acted upon.
Mr. Notz .Mrs. Hooth's case Is disposed
of. The question now Is on the superin
tendent's guilt or innocence. All this de
luy Is unnecessary. 1 move we adjourn
or do something (laughter).
Mr. Wormser The testimony has for
sometime been at the lissmal of any one
who wished to see it. This is no place to
make it public. I certainly shall not he
a party to having it read here when su'-h
a thing would be unnecessary. If the
members want to know what the evidence
was, it is on tile and they can read It.
Mr. O'.Malley Mr. Howell's reputation
is us dear to him as Mrs. Hooth's is to her.
We listened to her charge him with these
things. Now he doesn't ask that; he only
asks thnt we ucquaint ourselves with what
came before the committee. I, for one,
am here to defend him until he's proved
guilty.
Attorney O'lirien Tt Is Mr. Howell's do
sire thut the testimony be made a part
of his statement and his defense. He
stands now un accused person. His
statement as read by him Is not all of his
case. He sks (hat you add to It the of
ficial nnd recorded testimony on the mat
ter. The statement as read and the evi
dence referred to go together. Without
the two the board cannot act Intelligently.
Mr. Wormser It Isn't necessary to have
the evidence added to the superintendent's
statement when the evidence can be read
and not be made public. We've got a
Itreat many school children and others to
think of besides the parties immediately
Interested. I tell you we will make k
big mistake If we vote to admit the evi
dence. .Mr. Gibbons I, for one, know how to
vote without getting instructions from
any man. There's no need of one man
standing here and telling twenty-one how
to vole and what to do. Let's do some
thing. Mr. Wormser I renew my motion that a
Fpeclnl committee be appointed to recom
mend some course to the board at a fu
ture meeting.
Chairman Jennings The motion Is out
of order. I want to say here now that If
the motion to hear the evidence prevails
I shall rule that all of it be heard.
Air. Jennings then refused to recog
nise the several members excitedly
asking for the floor and repeated Mr.
Schriefer's motion to table that of Mr.
Carson providing for the reading of the
evidence. He announced' the motion
lost. In response to several calls for
the ayes and nays the motion was re
corded as lost by a vote of 8 to 13 as
follows:
Ayes Francois, Devanney .Wormser,
Welsh, Conrad, Jacobs, Schriefer, Lang
staff. Nays Scharar, O'Malley, Davis, Car
son, Casey, Schaffer, Walsh, Jennings,
Williams, Barker, Langan, Notz, Gib
bons. After the motion of Mr. Carson was
put, to have the evidence read, Mr.
Wormser. Mr. Welsh and Mr. Jacobs
debated against it and Mr. Williams
oflered as an amendment that the
words "all the testimony" be included
In the motion. Th amendment was
accepted by Mr. Carson and the motion
prevailed by a vote of 14 to 7 as fol
lows: Ayes O'Malley. Davis. Carson, Ca
sey, Devanney, Welsh, Hchaefer, Con
rad. Walsh, JenninKS.Williams, Langan,
Notz, Gibbons.
Nays Scarar. Francois, Wormser,
Jacobs. Schriefer, Harker, I.angstaff.
Mr. ilnrker and Mr. Schriefer ex
plained that they finally voted In the
negative because they disapproved the
reading of the testimony until a future
meeting.
Chaii man Jennings announced that
the three attorneys desired a moment's
conference and a recess would be tak
en if no objections were offered. Mr.
Webb movtd an adjournment until
this evening but tho proposition was
negatived.
A minute or two elapsed during which
the controllers entered Into lively de
bate in several groups and then came
word that the attorneys were going to
recommend nn adiournment. Mr. Gib
bons moved an adjournment until to
morrow night at 7 o'clock and the mo
tion prevailed.
DREAM OF FAIRYLAND.
( nntnta Presented I ndcr Ihe Aus-
pices of the l.ndics' Dcboinh Aid.
"Dream of Fairyland." a tuneful can
tata in two nets, was sung at Mxcelslor
hull, Wyoming avenue, last night by a
chorus of young girls under the direc
tion of Miss Moses and Miss Driesen.
It was given under the auspices of the
Ladies' Deborah Aid society.
The hull was crowded and the ap
plause which was bestowed at frequent
intervals testified to the excellent man
ner in which the performers acquitted
themselves. They gave evidence of
careful anil studious training. Kvery
tliing went ulong rlpplingly. The cos
tumes were very elaborate for an oc
casion of this kind, und the stage ef
fects were heightened by the addition
of calcium lights.
As May and Neva, the two orphans,
Carrie Itloch and Flora Levy are en
titled to special mention. The two an
gels were represented by Miss France
Moses and Miss liattie Driesen. Miss
Hose ( '.alien v. us the gypsy queen. The
fairies were Florence Kliyie. Glutei

The dancing of Misses Kline and Har
ris was very fine.
In addition to the cantata four tiiini
bers were given, A recitation entitled
25ie
People shudder at the tales of Mont
Carlo suicides, but look on with perfect
equanimity while friends and loved ones
commit just ascertain suicide by neglecting
their health. Trifling disorders of the di
gestion persistently neglected lead to im
purity of the blood, the tissues of the body
are imperfectly nourished, and emacia
tion and debility follow. In the case of
that dread disease, consumption, imperfect
ly nourished tissue is built up in the lungs,
forming a suitable soil for the germs of that
deadly disease. One-seventh of all the
deaths each year are due to consumption.
This fearful death rate could be easily
avoided if the proper remedy was te
lotted to.
A sure preventive and cure of consump
tion is found in Dr. Pierce's Golden Med
ical Discovery. It cures 98 per cent, of all
cases. It corrects all disorders of digestion,
invigorates the liver, and makes the blood
pure and plentiful. It is the great blood
maker, flesh-builder, and nerve invigorator.
It gets into the blood and acts directly upon
the lungs, building up healthy tissue and
driving out all impurities and disease germs.
Thousands have testified to its wonderful
merits. Druggists sell it,
" I feet that I must write yon telling you of the
rrcat lienents derived from the use of your
'(olden Medical Discovery,' " writes Miss (.aura
Ptersel. of Kant Bethlehem, Washington Co., Pa.
M Last summer my friends thought I wns surely
going into consumption, and having tried doc
tors before with no satisfactory results and hear
ing your medicine so highly spoken of, I took
one nottle. My cough led me altogether with
all the distressing symptoms, and in fact the
Dire seemed almost miraculous to all who w
me. I cannot anv enough in praise of the medi
cine, and have done much to induce other to
use it."
