; iThe awajd- of the contract to the
Coal, Cement and Supply Company,
of this city,, for the ; paving of two
blocks of Princess street, from Second
to Fourth, failed of approval by the
Board of Audit Vahd Finance, which
was in special session from ,3 until
ofclockestorday .afternoon. The
matter was referred -again', to the
Board of Aldermen? after a lengthy
discussion, and that body is asked to
call for new proposals so that all bid
ders naay be satisfied and may have,
no pretext for complaint. V
In order thai it may be necessary (or
no departure from his original plan- to
have the - work begin r October 10th
Mayor Waddell; has called a special
meeting of the . Aldermen this after
noon at three o'clock "and it is pre
sumed at this meeting a final disposi-.
tibn of the matter will be made as far
as the Aldermen are concerned.- . -'
"Present at the meeting yesterday
afternoon were Chairman McQueen
and Messrs. S. P. McNair, and Jesse
Wilder, comprising the Board, Mayor
Waddell, Aldermen Harriss and Maun
der, City Attorney Bellamy, Messrs.
Roger Moore, Jaav T. Riley, S. P.
Adams and Judge E. K. Bryan.
. Chairman McQueen, in calling the
meeting to order, stated that the pav
ing question would be taken up again.
He said that from all he could learn
the price at which the award was made
by the Aldermen was not unreason
able for the material and, work pro
posed to be furnished, but there was a
question if it was wise to use such exs
pensive material on a section of the
street where .trafficis not heavy,
while the more central portions of the
same and Market street are paved
with cheaper material ; that 'the other
work on Princess and Market streets
with vitrified brick cost only $167 per
square yard and . the pavement now
in contemplation will cost $2.05 per
square yardV -. : -i-vVi-'. "
s Judge E. K. Bryan, who wai i present
as counsel for the Coal, Cement and
Supply Company, explained that the
block called for in the recentcon
tract cost $39 per thousand, while
others could be had for $26 or $27 per
thousand., like thosetinowJsidim,
rprincess and Market streets.
Mr. Moore read a testimonial to the
quality of brick proposed to be furn
ished by his firm. ! v ' ; -
Alderman ' Maunder . said ' that as a
member of the Streets and Wharves
Committee, he had decided in favor
of the fire proof brick because 128
miiM of streets had been paved in
Philadelphia with them during the
last 13 years and theyv were good to
day. - In response to a question from
Mr. McQueen asl to the wisdom of
paving one section of the street with
superior quality brickywhile the more
traversed section was paved; with
cheaper material, Alderman Maunder
said the Titrifled :briek now - in; uge
were unsatisfactory ; they had begun
chipping off and horses were being in
jured by. falling on them. - ; ; ,
Mr. Wilder thought there could be
no objection to referring the matter
back to the Aldermen for new bids. ..
Judge Bryan stated that the Alder-:
men had called for bids on brick of the
kind decided upon and that they
thought it was in their- province to
state the quality and the ; Board of
Audit and Finance : to pass upon (he
Rae would be competent to judge of
the.materialri:'

; A Wilmington school committee
man, who is interested in no small
degree in all matters of public educa
tion and thoroughly up-to-date in his
ideas pertaining to i the same, has de
rected the attention of the Stab to a
letter recently7 received by the State
Superintendent of Public Instruction
from a lady patron of a graded school
in Piedmont North Carolina, who has
been the victim of "arbitrary' and ty
rannical rules" imposed by the super
inten3ent of the school by not allow
ing her thirteen-y ear-old "son to wear a
neat, well-fitting shirt waist to school
during the very warm days early in
September. .The letter continues with
the statement that the lad in the case
has gone to school in Baltimore, New
York and Brooklyn - without being
sent home for a coat, and that such
action as this "does not encourage a
New Yorker to setttefaTyow-Stata to
be obliged to pass the censorship of a
man who may know how to teach,
but not necessarily be -the final Tsar
on the subject of dress or fashion."
,'Tfae letter bas, in it the following
question : 'Is it permissible in a pub
lic school, presumably for the educa
tion of the masses, ; f or a principal to
make an arbitrary rule on the subject
of dress? If a boy is ; sent to school,
clad in clean, whole garments, with
clean hands and face; has the principal
any authority to send him - home for
his coat when the temperature is such
that every man In town is working in
his shirt sleeves!"
f Because of Jhe . an noyance caused
the lady, she ; has ' withdrawn her son
from the school until State Superin
tendent Toon." shall have , decided
whether or not he can be admitted
without a coat. 5 -
" "The local committeeman,' who calls
the attention of the Stab to the inci
dent, makes the well founded com
ment that 'the letter ; not only con
tains good advice that fits the local
case referred to, but that a great many

aboard of the little craft since she wss
thrown away up on the - beach, were
taken off and brought up to the city

of the wreck on low water makes it
almost positive that' the vessel is be
