SCHOOL BOARD
HASTROUBLE
MR. ALEXANDER'S PROMISES
NOT MADE GOOD.
Tho ? 100,000 That Was to Be Ad
vanced by Dick Bros., Pending tho
Issuing of Bonds, Has Not Ma
teilalizcd and Is Not Likely to for
Somo Time A Possibility That tho
Bonds May Be Awaided to New
borgcr Bros, & Hcndcison, the Best
Bidders.
Now the school district Is In bother
about its bonds. Unlike tho city, how
ever, the school dlrcctois themselves
ntc responsible for the bother. They
are now facing the posulblllly ot the
district losing n lot of Interest money
by delay In having the proposed Issue
floated.
One week ago last night bids wcio
opened for tho ?2jO,000 Issue of 3Vi
bonds. New borgcr Bros, & Hender
son, ot Philadelphia, bid 101 21-1(0.
Dick Hi oi of Now York, bid 100 ai-lCO.
There was one other smaller bid, New
bcrger Dios. & Henderson hnd no rcp
icscntntlvo prei cut. Dick Bros, weie
lcpiespnted by Klchnrd Alexander, the
hiiavo soung man who negotiated the
county loan.
The llnance cnilimlttee of the boaid
leportcd forthwith In fnor of award
ing tho Isfcuo to Ncwbcrgcr Bios. &
Henderson.. Whllo tho committee was
out framing its lcport, tlio board wns
In recess, Mr. Alexander proceeded to
get busy during the recess, and when
tho committee icturned with Its tepoit,
It found that tho board was not leady
to accept Its recommendation. By a
vote of sixteen to four tho board de
cided to give Dick Bros, an opportun
ity of making1 a supplemental bid and
then, by a vote of fifteen to live, ac
cepted tho supplemental bid.
BOARD HAD BORROWED.
The boaid had boironcd $.'0,000 from
the local banks and was paying C per
cent. Inteiest on it, Mr. Alc.xandci
knew this. He went among the mem
bers, talked about the standing of his
house and tho pievlous satlsfaetoiy
dealings It had had with the boaid;
called attention to the fact that the
city authoiltles weie having no end of
trouble by leason of dealing with new
and unknown houses, assorted th.it lie
had neer heaid of Newberger Bros. &
Hcndeison, and wound up by saying
that Ills lioue was teady to advance
$100,000 in cash Immediately If the board
would ghe it the bondb.
The fact that the boaid was nhc.idy
paying Interest on $50,000 boi lowed
money and would have to' boriow an
other $.r.0,'000 at the same late at once,
made the offer of Mr. Alexander a
tempting; one. Some of, tho members
protested against the pioposed :habby
treatment of Newberger Bios. & Hen
derson, but the ready money to wipe
out the loan and avoid tho necessitated
loan, coupled with the impiession given
by Mr. Alexander that Ncuboiger Bios.
& Henderson weie nn unknown film,
led a majority of the boaid, including
somo of its ery best members, to vote
for the Alexander pioposition. As It
appeared to them, the immediate ad
vancement of S100.000 would, by Its
saving of Interest charges, ovcicomc
tho difference between the two bids by
n maigm of $1,"0, and, moie dcshablc
than nil, give acsuianee that there
would be no dilly-dallying about tho
floating of the issue, such ns the i!ty
was oHcoiintoiliuj in its dealings with
Hayes Bios.
SIGNKD AN AGREEMENT.
Mr. Alexander letlrcd with the com
mittee and signed an agreement to take
the bonds at his bid nnd advance tho
5100,000 within three days. One week
has passed iind the money Is not foith
comlng. Another week must pass be
fore theio Is any possibility ot the
Alexander pioml.se being made good.
Tho chances aie that two weeks or
more will pass befoie the advance will
be at tho disposal of tho boaid.
DIckBios. wiote they weie leady to
stand by the promise of their Mr. Alex
ander, but before they could advance
the $100,000 some little formalities would
have to be attended to. Tho boaul
would have to meet and authorize tho
district ticasuior to glc a piomlssoiy
note for tho $100,000 nnd dliect Its presi
dent nnd secietniy to sign a paper 10
celptlng for the $100,0C0 and agreeing' to
i etui n It "If for any icason Dick Bios,
decide not to take tho bonds."
At this juiKtuio the board woke up.
Tieasmer Baiker still I.s and for some
weeks is likely to bo In El Paso, Tox
or some place in New Mexico. Not an
ticipating any necessity for a special
meeting, a number ot the membcis of
the bonrd have gone away on summer
vacations and oven a tegular meeting
next Monday night I.s haidly likely to
have a minium. Dlstiict Solicitor D. J,
Iteedy, who was consulted after the
board woke up, advises against com
pliance with tho demand tlmt the presi
dent nnd secietaiy of the boaid shall
sign an agieemcnt that the $100,000 shall
bo i etui ned "If for any reason Dic,k
Bios, decide not to take the bonds."
WHAT BOARD MAY DO.
The icadcis of tho boaid have suited
out to make the best of a bad bargain,
but with 111 hopes of succeeding to any
consldeiable extent. Word of the dlfli
cultlrs In tho way of compliance with
Dick Bios. demand) wcio forwaided to
the hnusp, only to be met by n lesponso
that their attorney was up in the Maine
woods. His addicts has been seemed
nnd Solicitor Becd has wiltten hhn,
telling what the board Is willing to do.
The chances nio that the board will
quit negotiations with Dtek Bros, and
seek to patch up n trueo with the oilg
nal best bidder, Newbeigcr Bios. &
Hendeison. Tho hitter's agent when
heie. a few days ago, said his house
might agreo to oveilook the ticatment
It had been acconled and take the
bonds ot tho figures It offeied. A defi
nite proposition Is expected fiom them
tomoiiow.

Wilt Banish the Summer Blues
and Other Distresses That-
flake Life Miserable
and Unhappy.
This Is the senson when wo hear men
and women complaining about thulr
unhappy tun hnlf-deiid condition. Thqy
Hnd that physical nnd mental cncigy
hns deseiled them, and they are sink
ing deeply In the pit of despondency.
The lint summer weather always pio
tltices thousands of miserable reeling
tnoitnls. They lack neivo foice.strengtli
and tiue vitality. They cannot rest
day or night, und life becomes a bur
den.
The gieat recuperator, builder and
sticngth-glver tor nil wcniy, wninout
and suffering people la Pnlno's Celery
Compound, now so unlvoi sally prescrib
ed by medical men. When tho gtcat
medicine Is used at this season, lan
guor, despondency, Irritability, nervous
ness, sleeplessness, headache, dyspep
sia, nnd digestive tioublcs hie perman
ently banished, nnd men and w onion go
about their duties and wotk with n
vim, will, and energy that indicate
health and physical stiength.
Mr. J. H. Clark, Newaik, Del., who
wa.t in a critical condition of health
fiom tiottbles extremely common in
summer time, wiltc3 thus ubout his
marvelous rescue fiom death:
"When I was attacked with nervous
prosti.ttlon, I went to one of our local
doctors. I continued to grow woise,
and consulted other phslclnns, but
with veiy little nppateut good. No
tongue can express or pen describe my
feelings and stiffen Ing from this terrible
disease. After spending considerable
money In the vain hope of being cured,
I was led to tiy Talnc's Ccleiy Com
pound, and It Is this jnedlcine which
enabled mo to enjoy the health I now
have. After the torture I experienced
night and day for jeais, the change Is
wonderful."
