CURRY'S FINE HMD

'ifgiu-X

SCHOOL TRUSTEE SAID TO BE Arhsfl SOFT PLACE.

CAUCUS THIS AFTERNOON

Story is That Other Members Will be Looked After If Curry is Landed.

It has become noised about town that Harvey M. Curry, president of the school board, is slated for appointment as successor to Principal Ovid Lawrence, who has resigned his place at the Sixteenth district school to take charge of the TfieW Vigo county orphanage. The school •board meets Friday night and the subject of a successor to Mr. Lawrence probably will be disposed of at that tnrie.

Superintendent W. H. Wiley and Secretary of the School Board Engles, held a caucus at one o'clock today in the B. & H. Levin Shoe store, Where Mi-. Engles is employed. It is known that tne conference was over .the appointnient 'of Mr. Curry, but it dtmiot be said that anything was decided upon. Members of the school board and the superintendent are wont to laugh away the Story that Mr. Curry will succeed Mr. Lawrence, but they do hot deny that such a thing is probable.

A legal question is involved in the appointment, as it 13 questioned whether Mr. Curry can be a member of the board and a,t the same time be a teacher in the schools. His term expires in June and there is not much possibility of his reelection, should he Venture to run for the office again. For some time Mrs. Curry has been ill and Mr. Curry has not been teaching at West Terre Haute where he is principal. During this vacation he and Mr. Wiley have had frequent conferences, and some scheme evidently has been hatched to give Mr. Curry a fat job in the local schools.

The same question of legality of appointment was raised at West. Terre Halite about a year ago when John RMcliffe was a member qf the board of trustees and was also said to desire the piincipalship. At that time, it Was declared that he could riot hold both offices. Mr. Engles said this afternoon that while he was no lawyer and was not certain how the law stood on this question he did not see why the other two members of the board, Messrs. English and Engles could not appoint Mr. Curry if they desired to.

There arc many other applications for the principalship of the Sixteenth district school. It has been thought, up to the last few days, that some teacher in the wards would be given the place but it riow looks a* if Mr. CWry had arranged matters to suit himself and would be the new principal.

It is argued that if Mr. Curry succeeds in having himS'elf appointed other members of the boai'd will get a plum from some other source but what this will be is only conjecture.

TRAFFIC WAS STOPPED.

brunken Transfer Driver Played Havoc With the Street Car System During No6h Hour.

A diiJliteh driver with a heavily load* ed transfer wagon almost stopped street car traffic on Maiii street, for a few moments during the noon hour today. The fellow was driving east on Maiii street, and persisted in keeping his team on the street car track. When the car men would yeli at him and get him to awake and guide his team off one track he Would drive over oh the other, aiid bring other cars to a stahdstill. It was soine time before it was discovered that the driver was driiriki it being, thought that the heavily loaded wagon was the cause of the slow moving. At last the drunken driver turned his horses so as to block ade both street car tracks and all the fears were forced to stop. The team was not driven out of the way and the blockade broken until a half dozen cars goin& east and West werfe blocked at Niftth street. The driver appeared wholly uricbriscibus bf thfe bldckadfe and ti-bubtfe he was causing until a sober Irian got upon the Wagon arid took charge of the team.

RURAL

LOCAL CARRIERS OVERWHELMED BY SNOW AND MUD.

SEVERAL TRIPS ABANDONED

ffte'n Find* It Impossible to Be bn Schedule Time—Many Patrons Are Disappointed.

The roads over which the rural mail deliveries are made are all but impassable and it is only with the greatest difficulty that the carriers can cover even a portion of their routes. The country roads before the cold snap, farmers say, were in worse condition than they have ever been before. The mud was deep and sticky and in all but the most necessary circumstances travel had been abandoned entirely. The snow coming on top of this has put the roads in the worst possible shape.

Route No. 4 to the south, is the bantier route for bad traveling. On one day since the big stornj has it been possible to cover it completely, and Carrier Joseph Reynolds yesterday, although making heroic efforts could not begin to get through it. Another start was made today, but with practically the same result.

FASIG ALLOWED MORE MONEY BY BOARD

Sheriff Fasig has been maJcing love to the board of county commissioners and as a result of his efforts has succeeded in getting them to allow him $65 of the $1,000 appropriation, voted by the county council in an unguarded moment, for transferring prisoners to the penal institutions, a bill that is paid from the state each time he delivers a prisoner to any of the state institutions. Men who know, insist that the sheriff receives fair pay from the state for delivering these convicts, and the amount that he receives from the reckless voting of the county council and board of county commissioners is a clear pick-up. He asks from the county, in addition to What is paid by the state, the sum of $10 each for taking two women to the women's prison. The amount exceeds the expense bv $3.25, aiid this added to what he receives from the State is clear gain. There is no law which Warrants the county in allowing the claims, and when the time comes, the payment may be challenged.

The bills which have already been allowed.conditionally by the board of commissioners are as follows: January 30, taking Matthew Alexander to Michigan City, Mamie Albright to the woman's prison and Tilman Storms to Jefferson, ville $4'0. Feb. 18, Everett Holycross to Plainfield and Jennie Summers and Ella Terrell to the woman's prison, $25. The allowances are made bn condition that if the present legislature changes the sheriff's salary the rti'driey is not to be paid. The allowances are held by the auditor and it is claimed no warrants will be issued until after the legislature adjourns. It is suggested that Mr. Fasig could as well trust the county as the county could trust Mr. Fasig and that the voting on the allowance of such unwarranted bills be postponed until after the legislature adjourns, if there is any probability of a change. The sheriff, it is claimed, might worry along with the "hobo graft" until after the legislature adjourns.

Major Glenn Crlti2ed.

MANILA, Feb. 18.—The finding in the case of Major Edwin F. Glenn of the Fifth infantry, recently acquitted of the charge of unlawfully killing prisoners of war, ha.s been approved by General Davis.

General Davis stands by the principle that guides may be impressed arid that treachery in guides may be punishable by death.
