Tho papers setting fortli tho grounds of protest havo been drawn up under legal advico and aro' as follows : To the Itonornbie D. J. Waller. Jr., Smif.rin tendeitt of Public Instruction, IlarrUhurg, ra. Sin: Wo, tho undersigned members of tho School Board, and citizens of tho school district of tho borough of Shenandoah in tho comity of Schuylkill and stato of Pcnnsyl vania, feeling a just prido in tho excellence of our Echools and believing that their prosed vatlon is a matter of great importance to tho community, respectfully set fortli tho fol. lowing objections to tho issuing! of a com mission, to M. P. Whitaker as borough super intendent of schools, to which position ho was elected by tho School Board of tho dis trict on Tuesday, Hay 2d, 1893, viz: First. Wo bciievo tho said M. 1'. Whitaker is not duly qualified to discharge tho duties of borough superintendent of schools to which ollico ho was elected. Second, Tho certificate held by tho said M, P. Whitaker qualifies him with one exception to teadi tho common branches only. Third, In .addition to tho branches enumerated iu'the certificate of tho said M. P. Whitaker tho directors of tho said district require that the following studies be pursued, viz: geometry, trigonometry, algebra, chemistry, general history, civil government, latin, rhetoric, English literature, botany, vocal music and drawing. Fourth, We boliovo that tho said M. P, Whitaker is not qualified to teach or has ex perience' to teach any of tho additional branches and is therefore not qualified or competent to superintend instruction In tho same. ' Fifth. Tho cxrerienco of tho said M. P. Whitaker has bcon derived solely from lahor ill schools of low grado and in subordinate positions; ho lacks administrative ability and is weak as a disciplinarian; nor do wo believo that consideriug'thc additional fact that 43 of tho -18 teachers constituting our present corps hold normal diplomas, thus outranking him in tho matter of certified qualifications, bo could command that; degree of respect requisite for efllcieney in tho position of borough superintendent of the schools. o, tucrcioro, respcctiully urge you, on behalf of ourselves and tho said district to mako investigation in tho manner p'rovided by law into the fitness and qualifications possessed by tho said M. P. Whitaker to discharge tho.dutiea, of borough superintend ent of schools in said district and withhold tho granting of a commission if tho above objections bo sustained.

Upon making tho inspection Assistant Abbott reported that ho found everything hi first class order and complimented tho oltlcers and membors of tho Post on its ofllciency and general appearance. Under the head of "Good of tho Army" Commander Boyer called upon tho visitors for remarks and thoy responded very graco fully. Before closing his address Mr. Abbott said there should always bo tho best feeling between tho comrades of all Posts. This brought Commander Boyer to his feet, who, 111 calling upon Past Commander Rich of Gowcn Post, Pottsvillc, for an address, stated that over since tho celebration of Grand Army Day in this town much coldness seemed to exist in tho relations between Mr. Klch's Post and tho town organization; that thcro must havo been some misunderstand ing somewhere nud "for tho good of tho Araiy" and tlio peaco of all in tho future, he hoped Past Commander Kich would try and throw oil upon the troubled waters and havo peace and harmony reign onco more ovor tho relations of tho two Posts. Mr. Rich is a happy and intensely interest ing speaker. Ho fully explained tho troublo and said it aroso through a misunderstanding occasioned by falsehoods of somo malicious parties. He wanted tho hatchet buried, handle and all ; tho members of tho Grand Army of tho Republic aro 0110 body, they fought for ono cause, and they should live and dio as comrades of tho greatest order in the country.

Timid l'cnple uf the First Ward Jlxcltetl A eh In, Many residents of tlio First ward became very much alarmed again last night; over tho condition of the Wator " Company's dam. Thoy feared the heavy ralu would oause a disastrous prossuro upon tlio breastwork of tho dam and many of them sought accom modations for tho night with friends In other parts. Their alarm was not caused,, by shots or other falso warnings. Unfortunately thcro are somo residents of tho ward who are so timid that no amount of reasoning can assure them of their safety and their continual nervousness works with bad effect upon tho less timid with tho result that If a boy shouts on tho street there is a gen eral stampede. Thcro is no danger of tho brook nt tho dam becoming worso thau it Is. Tho wator com pany has twenty-flvo men employed night and day digging ditchos and making other arrangements To' draining tho affected dam and tbo one nbOvo it, so that workmen can work at tho damaged breastwork in safety and repair it. Tho water company officials give positive assurance that thcro is no danger of a flood. ruusoNAi.. Frank Schmidt spent to-day at the couuty seat.
