The superintendent reported that he completed and filed his annual statistical report with the clerk. He also desired to call the attention to the committee on buildings and repairs of the desirability of better equipping the High school labratory. His report was accepted and the latter matter was referred to the proper committee. Mr. Kranth moved the adoption of his resolution introduced two weeks ago.

It provides for the increase ol the tuition rates from if 10 to $30 in the High school and from $10 to $20 in the lower grades. The purpose of the resolution was to provide further revenue for conducting the schools. Mr. Krauth showed that the actual expense pel month in the High school of each pupil was about $10, and the present tuition rates were far too low to keep up, or come any way near keeping up, the running expenses. Mr.

Rose said he believed the increased tuition would double, rather than decrease the num SUI'KRIXTJSSJIKN'T H. L. HOSE. 1808, to the amount of $13780.50. The report was received and the bills were ordered paid, all voting aye.

Adam is putting the men through a severe ex amination, and is turning away all ex cept those who show every evidence a sound body and unbroken constitu tion. Happily, the applicants are healthy set, and but few are found uu lit. Yesterday was a busy one for th mrgeon, but he remained patien throughout, and the men were all given equal chances and a careful exaruina tion. The applications for enlistment wen received by Captain Margedant las evening and the men went down to take the examination today. There seems to be a dearth of appli cants here in the city.

It is stated on good authority that should there be a third call, enough men to fill the quota would have to be drafted in this county The general impression seems to be nsfc the opposite, but the statement ia made from observing the length time it is taking to fill the ranks of Co JAPANESE WEDDING Typically Represented at Last Night's Entertainment at tile V.

S. L. Hose eub milled his annual statistical report, showing tho condition of the for the year just closed. Some of the most interesting items included in the report are given below: Number of pupila enrolled at tie close of this school year 17 and girls 1709, total ul7(i, an increase of 1-0'J over the preceding school year, aui for the three year of-Siilj. Number of pupils remaining at th close of lO'JO and girls total and increase over last yeai of 117 and for the three years last pasl of 370.

Average daily attendance was an increase for the three years of The total cases of tardiness for the year just closed were 088, a gradual de crease during the three years from 10'JO or a decrease eiiualto ueailyiiO percent The number of pupils not tairty wen 2470, an increase of U04. During thi same period of three years the unmboi of pupils neither absent nor turdy has increased more than 21 per cent. The above figures show a splendid growth of the school, and a very grati tying report of the regularity and pnnc tnality of the attendance. The very unusual amount of epidemics, especial ly measles, had much to do with inter fering with the regular attendance children in some quarters of the city. NOT LAW The Ground on Which the Local Ripper Bill Was Sustained.

A Colnmbna dispatch this morning gives the following information as to the decision in the Hamilton ripper case: The supreme court announced a num ber of important decisions today. Among the cases decided was that of "The State ex rel. the Attorney-Gen eral vs. J. J.

McMaken," testing the constitutionality of the so-called Ham iltou ripper. The court holds that the ripper bill is constitutional. The principal ground upon which the suit was instituted was that the act the city of Hamilton wit special legislation. The court holds that the clause designating Hamilton as a city of a certain class is fcufiicient make the act of general effect, from a technical standpoint and in the eyes of the law, because any other city hav ng similar qualifications of population can reorganize municipal government at any time under the provisions of the bill. Judge Shanck dissents from the other members of the court ind holds that the act is special legis lation.
