TUB HSPUMJOAH JACK REFUSED TO BE WEIGHED Connaugbton Suspended For Insubordination No Officer Would Accept Unlucky Number Welched, Meaiured, Claulfled, Numbered. Some Interesting of The Force. For some time past there has beeu no system of numbering among the police ofliorfrs Badges and wreathes have been mixed up, an officer would bo wearing a badge of one number and a wreath of another, lome badges and wreaths were miaisiug and there waa no way of telling who any particular was by finding out who was on duty in a particular precinct. This ban ied to aomo confusion and lor the purpose of establishing a record a time ago Mayor Boeoh instructed Chief Stroh to get the name, height and weight of each officer, collect all the badges and wreathei and to correctly number each officer according to size. Between and o'clock last night tbe men were all called to the station house where a weighing and measuring machine had been provided and the desired data was secured with one exception.

Officer John Counaughton absolutely refused to be weighed. Colonel Stroh told him that it was for the purpose of "getting a record and that he would have to be weighed but Officer Connaughtou simply would not be weighed. Colonel Stroh thereupon suspended him for insubordination, violating Itule 48 of the police manual, whlel says that everyofflcer must obey the orders of his superiors. The case is now in the hands of Director of Police Hemp. Among the patrolmen Officer John Holbrook is Number 1.

His record shows him to stand 0 ft. ins and to weigh 290 Ibs. The records of tho other officers are as follows. John Fisher, No. 2 Height, lift.

Miss Snivaly, the supervisor drawing, has introduced into tin primary grades, a'form of drawing which cannot do otherwise please the children and at the same tithe be instructive aud beneflcia to them.

The new form of. work ia clay modeling and designing. A Email piece of clay is given each pupil and then he is instructed to form it iu various shapes and symbols, each of which is iu some way connected with tho subject of drawing. This is quite readily seen that the interest of the child is first aroused, and by this uieaus his attention is obtained, anc after that the subject of drawing can be presented in an attractive manner, and what is taught will remain a part of the child the remainder of Ins school days. The use of this clay modeling and designing has so far proved quite successful and it will undoubtedly prove more so as time progresses and tbe pupils are taught tho more cult problems connected with tho perfection of the subject.
