QUALITY OFTHE SCHOOL BOOKS THE MAIN POINT MAXIMUM PRICES NAMED IN THE I BIDS. REVISION UNDER EXPERTS When the State. Board of Education meets next month to award the contracts for furnishing school books. It will be compelled to consider as the most important part of the competitive bidding the quality of the books, for the eighteen book companies that submitted bids on the readers, arithmetics and geographies named the maximum prices allowed by law, fatate Superintendent Cotton says good books can not be prepared at lower figures. The maximum price which the law allows for a primer Is 10 cents; for a first reader, 10 cents; for a second reader, IS cents; for "a third reader, 25 cents; for a fourth 33 cents, and for a nfth reader, 40 cents.

The introductory arithmetic, the law says, shall not cost more than 35 rents, and the higher arithmetic more than 40 cents. The maximum price for tie Introductory geography is 30 cents, i and the advanced book 75 cents. The maximum price "tor the series of eight copy books is 5 cents. The maximum price for the copy books was not so generally adhered to as was that for the text books, soma of the companies bidding as iow as cents. In former years.

Superintendent Cotton said, it was difficult to get the nroDer amount of competition, the low rate es tablished by the Indiana law maklna: It almost Impossible to prepare a book according, to the demands of the Indiana Board of Education. Several Books Revised. v. The geographies, published by Glnn Co. the readers, published by the Indl ana School Book Company; the arithme tics, published by the Silver Burdette Company, and the series of copy books.

published by Eaton which are now used in the public schools, have all un dergone a rigid revision under experts chosen by the Board of Education. The present contracts to be let will, in the nve years, amount to $600,000 or $800,000. The Board of Education in not favorable to a plan submitted by Will H. Whit taker, superintendent of the Indiana Reformatory, who has proposed that the printing of the achoolbooks be done at the Indiana Keformatory. i i TEST OF ILLUMINATING GAS May be Part of Plan to Obtain Cheaper Rate for Fuel.

City Engineer Jeup will probably report to Mayor Iloltzman in the near future the results of the tests of artl ficial Illuminating gas that have been conducted In his laboratory by Walter Buehler for several weeks. Great secrecy has been maintained with regard to these tests. The administration is interested In getting a cheaper rate on artificial gas for fuel purposes from the Indianapolis Gas Company. At present the charge is 90 cents a thousand feet, the same as Illuminating Mayor Holtzman says that he thinks it is not unreasonable to expect that such an arrangement can be made. The company is using natural gas mains for carrying artificial gas and is selling illuminating gas for fuel iurpofe3T These are both In excess or the rrancnise held by the Indianapolis Gas Company.

Evidence is being gathered and the ad ministration is formulating Its case to make it as strong as possible. The results of the engineer's tests will probably be a part of the case that the city is making against the gas company.

Mason was consul at Frankfurt on the Maln when Cleveland was elected the first time. Mason had been a reporter and later editor on the Cleveland Leader and was a good Republican. "Soon after Cleveland's election Mark Twain dropped into the consulate tp see Mason. He found him packing up. What's the matterr asked Twain.

'Oh. said Mason, 'I'm getting ready to turn the office over to my successor, who will be a Democrat. 'Twain went to his lodgings, sat down and wrote a letter addressed to Miss Ruth in which he told of his visit to his "friend Mason, whom he found etting ready to vacate his otnee. 'Now, my dear Miss wrote Twain, 'it will be a burning shame to deprive the United States of the services of such a man sis Frank Mason, and as a special favor to me I ask. that at the first opportunity that you pet the' ear of your papa that use your influence to retain my friend in the office which he so ably fills.

Please, also, call the attention of your papa to the State Department and tell him that he can there find support for all that I have i "In due tjme Twain received a letter from President Cleveland, telling him that Miss Ruth had called to his attention the case of Consul Mason, and that Mr. Mason would hot be disturbed but would promoted at the first opportunity; and tYr 1 Xfnrlr Twain IrnM says that If the price of the product beJf511" consuls to please Inform him.
