EDUCATIONAL.
Teachers' Salaries Fixed for
the Coming Year.
The Vacation to End Septem-
her Fifteenth.
All the Bids for Famishing Black-
boards are Rejected.
Matters Pertaining to the New School
Buildings—Other Business of
Interest Transacted.
At the session of the board of educa
tion last night in the city hall, there
were present Mr. A. E. Pomeroy in the
•chair and Messrs. Cox, Ellis, Woodbury,
Frew, Gosper, Mcintosh, Powers and
Whaling.
It was fully forty-five minutes after
the appointed hour before the board
■came to order, the members having held
a caucus in the office of the superintend
ent of schools, with the view of coming
to an agreement upon the blackboard
■question before entering the board room.
A communication was received from
the Seth Thomas Clock Company, of
San Francisco, asking for specifications
of the clock to be put in the tower of the
new high school building, in order that
it might put in a bid for the same. Re
ferred to the building committee.
A petition was received from C. G.
Williams, the contractor, asking for an
extension of thirty days' time on the ex
tra work on the Second and Beaudry
street schoolhouse, and was referred to
the building committee.
A communication was received from
George C. Safer, offering to slate a black
board (in the Spring-street school pre
ferred), with silica slating free, as an
experiment, and should the same prove
unsatisfactory, it should be replaced at
his expense by any blackboard desig
nated by the superintendent of schools,
the work to be done after the school
closed for the year. Referred to the
building committee.
A number of applications for positions
as janitors in the public schools were
received and referred to the committee
on janitors.
A number of demands amounting to
$2,645.87 were approved as read, Mr.
voting negatively.
The salary-rolls of the teachers and
janitors for the current month, amount
ing to $15,500, were approved, Mr.
AVhaling alone voting against the sal
aries of the kindergarten teachers.
Mr. Ellis, of the teachers' committee,
made the following recommendations
with reference to the salaries of the
teachers of the public schools for the en
suing school year, which was adopted
as read, Mr. Whaling voting negatively:
Teachers of second and third grades,
$70 to $80; third class, $80;
second class, $85; lirst class, $00
to $100; principals of four and less
than six-room schools, $115; principals
of eight rooms and "more, $135; high
school principal, $150; high-school
teachers, $115 to $135; drawing teacher,
$105; penmanship teacher, $125 ; super
intendent of schools, $225 ; assistant su
perintendent, $150; superior of kinder
garten, $50 to $80; superintendent of
janitors, $115; assistant superintendent,
$70; janitors, per room, $5.
Mr. Whaling made a vigorous objec
tion to the report, but was called to
order and suppressed under the "three
minute" rule. He and Governor Gos
per had a breezy tilt over the matter,
during which the former said that the
governor was "no gentleman." Mr.
Ellis explained that his committee had
made a very careful investigation of the
matter and was satisfied that its report
was fair to both sides, and that the
salaries as recommended were merited
by t he teachers.
Mr. Whaling offered a lengthy resolu
tion to the effect that the superintendent
of schools, principals and teachers of
the public schools for the ensuing year
present themselves and their creden
tials, thereby enabling the board
to select those possessing the
highest and best qualifications for the
same. The resolution was received and
ordered placed on file, after several
of the members had suggested its being
referred to the council and other muni
. cipal and foreign bodies.
Mr. Mcintosh,of the building commit
tee, made the following recommenda
tions, all of which were adopted:
That the recpiest of G. C. Willman for
an extension of time on the extra work
at the Second and Beaudry streets
school be granted.
That the lot of Mr. Hutchinson on the
corner of Temple and Casco streets be
purchased as a school site for $800.
That the lot at Temple and Casco
streets be graded before bids be adver
tised for the school building.
On motion of Governor Gosper it was
resolved that the public schools open for
the fall term of the school year on Sep
tember 15th.
Tiie blackboard question was then
brought up for discussion. Governor
Gosper suggested that, as at an informal
meeting of the board, the majority of
the members expressed themselves
as in favor of the slated-cement
boards, though no definite agreement
could be arrived at, one of the school
rooms be furnished with each of the ac
ceptable boards, and the rest provided
with the cement board now in use in the
schools. After some discussion of the
matter, Mr. Mcintosh moved that all
bids be rejected, and that in order to
allow the board to find out by experi
ence which was the best, one room be
furnished with a hyloplate, another
with the Haynes, another with Sater's
silica, and another with a genuine slate
board, to be put up at the prices named
in the bids, in order to test their respec
tive merits and give the competitors an
equal show. In the meantime the Reno
filler slated-cement board, ac at present
in use, was to be placed in the buildings.
This motion prevailed, Mr. Woodburv
alont being opposed to it.
The board then adjourned until Mon
day, the 30th inst., when a special meet
ing will be held for the purpose of re
ceiving bids for the erection of school
houses at Bloom street, Temple street,
Seventh street, and an addition of four
rooms to the Thirtieth-street school.
CRIMINAL NOTES.
Argument in the Castac Case in
Progress.
Every available space in the court
room of department 1 of the superior
court was occupied yesterday when
the argument in the Castac trial was
opened by Attorney H. T. Gordon for
the prosecution, and the spectators
listened with rapt attention to the ad
THE LOS ANGELES HERALD: TUESDAY MORNING, JUNE 17, 1890.
dress of the learned counsel to the jury.
The afternoon session was absorbed by
Attorney J. L. Murphy, one of the coun
sel for the defendants, Gardener and
Chormicle, who reviewed the case in de
tail. He will continue his address this
morning, and will be followed by As
sistant District Attorney McComas, who
will close the case in all probability in
the evening.
Mrs. Sarah Stewart, who resides at
827 Howard street, appeared before Jus
tice Savage, in the township court, yes
terday, for arraignment upon the charge
of sending a threatening letter to Min
nie Purke and TiHie McAnery, two of
her neighbors. She was released upon
her recognizances to appear for trial on
Saturday morning next.
C. C. Jaxtheimer, the dentist, failed
to appear in department No. (S, yester
day morning, when called upon to plead
to the charge of larceny preferred
against him, whereupon Judge McKin
ley issued a bench warrant for his ar
rest.
The Rise of the Gypsy.
Edgar L. Wakeman, whtise life among
and close study of the Romany entitles
him to be ranked as the highest author
ity upon gypsies, furnishes from time to
time many interesting facts in regard to
their progress in this country. He states
that in Chicago there is a clergyman
who was born a gypsy. A member of
the Pennsylvania legislature has the
same origin. In Canada there are fifty
eminent professional people who are of
the Bohemian race. A prominent engi
neer on a southern railway is a
gypsy. Mr. Wakeman says that
in New York City there are
half a hundred gypsies, several of
whom are worth upward of $100,000
apiece. A Boston lawyer who is in good
practice is a gypsy. A San Francisco
caft' is owned and conducted by a gypsy,
who is very rich. In Indianapolis is a
physician in large practice, who passes
as an Englishman. He was born in a
Yetholm gypsy camp. One of the
wealthiest residents of Washington is a
gypsy. Certain business men in Rich
mond and Baltimore have the same ori
gin. Henry Stanley, of St. Paul, owns
property worth $40,000. The Cooper
family, of East Somerville, Boston,
are worth $250,000. Uriah Whar
ton owns $200,000 worth of real estate
in New York. In Canada the amount
of property owned by gypsies is very
large. Half a million dollars' worth of
property in and near Dayton, Ohio, is
owned by gypsies. In Milwaukee Elias
Brewer owns $50,000 worth of property.
"In short," says Mr. Wakeman, "I
make it as a statement of fact that I
could iill columns with names and ad
dresses and property estimates of nearly
a thousand gypsies in this country,whose
combined wealth would exceed $40,000,
--000.
Thus it is that the gypsies have be
come an interesting race "to the students
of sociology. Their advancement and
j prosperity are not suppositious. The
gypsies are becoming in reality an im
| portent part of the community." As Mr.
j Wakeman hints, some day the busy
politician will be scurrying about to
! catch the gypsy vote. —[New York

A Noted Month.
From Keokuk, fa., Democrat.
August. 1887, was a noted month. It
gave extreme heat and extreme cold,
the results of which were disastrous to
the public health. Cases of colic,
cholera morbus and diarrhoea were
abundant, and there were numerous
calls at the drug stores for Chamber
lain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea
Remedy. Druggists of this city tell us
that this remedy has been more fre
quently called for during the past
month than any other preparation, and
that it has proven a panacea for the
very worst cases. Chamberlain's Colic
Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy is a
meritorious medicinal preparation for
all summer complaints for which it is
recommended, and grows in popularity
in this city and vicinity. t The sales are
increasing rapidly and' wonderful cures
are reported.
