He said in this connection: “Tito library books should be dissociated from text books and lessons. Let there be some instruction In all the books given the children, but avoid the appearance of teaching them in the books they read for pleasure.” Principal Grant read a paper entitled “Some of Our Mistakes.” “Elementary Education” was the gen eral topic discussed under various heads at the morning session. F. Louis Soldan, superintendent of city schools, St. la>uis, was the first speaker.

THE NEWS AND ORSKRVKR, FRIDAY MORNING. JULY 12, 1901. DM COUNTY SCHOOL TANGLE Rival Claimants As County Superintendent A LAW SUIT IN PROSPECT Rev. A. M. Croxton and Major L. D. Andrews the Claimats. SUPERINTENDENT RECOGNIZES ANDREWS The County Board of Education Mas Two Chair men and the Third Man Controls the Situation as a Mteting in Court Housp. Union county yesterday morning had two men, each claiming to be the legal County Superintendent of Public Instruc tion. Yesterday afternoon State Superintend ent Toon straightened out the snarl and recognized Major L. D. Andrews, of Mon roe, as the legal officer in Union county. The trouble in Union county with dual superintendents was brought to a head because of the examination of public school teachers, advertised to take place today, the notice being given to the teachers by Dr. a) M. Croxton and Major L. D. Andrews, both claiming to be co.unty superintendents. Here is how things got mixed in Union. The County Board of Education consists of Messrs. A. W. Heath, F. B. Ashcraft, and J. W. Marsh. In April Messrs. Hetith and Ashcraft met and organized, Mr. Marsh being absent. It it stated that neither member present took the oath required by law, but at once elected Mr. Ashcraft chairman. Last Monday the board again met and qualified, only Ashcraft and Heath being present and transacted routine business without any reorganization. No superin tendent of schools was elected as Mr. Ashcraft was in favor of I>r. A. M. Crox ton, pastor of the Baptist church, and the old superintendent, while Mr. Heath was in favor of Major L. D. Andrews. Chairman Ashcraft adjourned the board to meet again in October, but Mr. Marsh, the member who had not attended, and whom it was reported would not. qualify, sent a telegram withdrawing his resigna tion and qualified as a member of the board. Mr. Heath gave notice to Mr. F. B. Ashcraft of a meeting on Tuesday, but the latter gentleman di not attend, while Mr. Marsh did. The meeting was held in the corridor of the court house and on motion of Mr. Marsh, Mr. Heath was elected chairman and Major Andrews was unanimously elected county superintend ent. Messrs. Marsh and Heath then ad journed. I)r. Croxton, claiming to be the legal superintendent, at once Inserted in the Monroe Journal an advertisement stating that he was the “hold over” superintend ent by the action of the board and would hold the examination of teachers on Jnne 11th (today). Major Andrews likewise notified the teachers in the same paper that ho was the duly elected superin tendent and would hold the examination, both naming the court house as the place of meeting. Immediately the friends of both these gentlemen appealed to State Superintend ent Toon, Mr. James G. Covington, a leading citizen and former mayor of Mon roe coming to Raleigh yesterday in be half of Major Andrews, while Mr. R. L. Stevens, Major Andrews’ attorney and a former member of the legislature, wrote to the Superintendent, stating the case for his client and saying that the action of Mr. Ashcraft “was to defeat the wishes of a majority of the board and secure for the old incumbent in the office five months longer service.” For Dr. Croxton a letter was sent by Mr. R. F. Beasley, one of the publishers of the Monroe Journal, stating that he wrote it “at the request of Rev. Dr. A. M. Croxton, Superintendent of Public in struction of this county,” and because ho was interested in the schools. He also stated that Dr. Croxton wanted General Toon to come to Monroe at once to set tle the matter as his quick decision would “prevent a law suit and the probable disruption of the school work.” Concern ing the dispute he says, “The motives it is not necessary to go into.” Mr. Beas ley also enclosed a clipping from his pa per containing an account of the mat ter. There was another paper sent also. It Avas dated July 9th and was signed “A. W. Heath, chairman, J. W. Marsh, member of County Board of Education” and read thus: “You are hereby informed that'L. D. Andrews Avas this day elected County Superintendent of Public Schools for the county of Union.” General Toon, after investigating the matter, decided in favor of Major An drews. He telegraphed to Dr. Croxton this decision and also telegraphed Major Andrews that he hrfd received official no tice cf his election, that as he was in formed of the dispute about the holding of examinations he directed him to hold the examinations as County Superintend ent, concluding by saying, “Certificates granted by you will be valid.” Whether Dr. Croxton will make a con test today at the court house remains to be seen. It appears to be simply a contest as to Avhich man gets the posi tion, as no personal or official charges of inefficiency is brought against either man. Dr. Croxton is a minister of the gospel and Major Andrews is a practical teacher with years of experience. BUILDERS ON STRIKF. Laborers’ Federation Refuse to Accept the Re salt of Arbitration. (By Associated Press) Fort Worth, Texas, July 10. —A strike of large proportions involving all build ing trades began here today. Fully 1,000 men are out and work is practically sus pended all over the city. The strike is the outcome of the refusal of the Labor ers’ Federation to accept the result of arbitration of the demand for higher wages. White Brothers are making arrange ments to erect a new cotton mill ai Graham, in the Eastern part of the town. Hospitals in our great cities are sad places to visit. Throe-fourths of the patients lying on those snow-white beds are women and girls. Why should this be the case ? Because they have neglected themselves. Every one of these patients in the hospital beds had plenty of warning in that bearing-down feeling, pain at the left or right of the womb, nervous exhaustion, pain in the small of the back. All of these things are indications of an unhealthy condition of the ovaries or womb. What a terrifying thought! these poor souls are lying there on those hospital beds awaiting a fearful operation. I I Do not drag along at home or in your place of employ ment until you are obliged to go to the hospital and submit to an examination and possible operation.

This report shows that the affairs of the endowment rank under Hinsey’s man agement drifted into practical insolvency. The former president of the Board of Control declared he had done his best to keep the treasury in a sound condition but that death claims had mounted up, investments had turned out failures, and it had been frequently necessary to over draw the rank’s account at the bank. The report, Avhich was compiled by the present Board of Control, excepting Hin sey dees not charge the latter and oth ers with misusing the funds, but states that they were misused. Hinsey occupied the floor during the entire forenoon session of the investiga tion eomihittee. To reporters Hinsey said: “I am prepared to defend my adminis- (ration against any and all comers. My conduct of the office was perfectly open and above board. The investments were good and all will turn out all right.” John A. Hinsey was ordered tonight by the Supreme Lodge of the Knights of Pythias to appear before that body and show cause why he should not be expelled.- An order has barn made that in the future no investments shall be made save by the written order of five out of the seven members of the board of control of the rank. This will be formally adopt ed tomorrow. A resolution is being con sidered to raise the rates of payments on insurance about fifty per cent., r,o that more funds will be provided to meet death claims and enough additional to make good the losses and create a surplus in the future. The supreme lodge will also flamutation of the womb and congested ovaries. I had suffered from suppressed and painful menstruation from a girl.
