of the Center School district. reducing
the salary of Principal Charles A.
Tucker from 61.400 to $1,300 was legal.
is a question that is being discussed
considerably by voters of the district.
Some claim that it is not. owing to the
fact that it was not stated in the call
that the matter of the principal's sal-
ary was to be acted upon.

There is also considerable talk
among Mr. Tucker’s friends in the dis-
trict of a petition to rescind the Wed-

UNABLE TO GET THE LAUNCH.
Party Who Recovered Sheffield Island
Boats Wanted Big Salvage.

The launch Gertrude. which went
adrift from Sheffield Island during the
recent storm. was picked up at Col-
lender's Point by a man named C. Wil-
laby. Yesterday a party went after the
launch and skiff. but were unable to
get it. Willaby refuses to give it up
unless he receives $75 for the launch
and 810 for the skiff. This would ,be
salvage of about half their value. As
a rrtle the courts never allow more
than half and usually about a third of
the value of boats. even when they are
completely wrecked and abandoned by
officers and crew on the high seas.
Willaby will probably be sued to re-

cover the boat.

State's Attorney fes-
sendon Appointed Conser-.
vator 0f Unborn Children
of Miss Susan V. St. John.I
of Norwalk—eCourt's Un-
usual Order

Attorncy John S. Pulltnun, of Bridge-
port, hrrd an unusual order passed by
Judge A. 'l‘. Roraback, at the short
calendar session of the civil superior
court, yesterday. in that State's Attor-
ncy Samuel chsenden. of Stamford.
was appointed to represent the unborn
issue of Susan V. St. John..of Norwalk.
There was a paragraph in the statutes
which provides that whenever parties
whose interests may be affected by an
order of sale of lands are not repre-
sented by counsel. or for other satis-
factory reasons. the court may direct
the state's attorney to investigate the
allegations in the complaint and to
do all tumgs necessary and proper to
protect all interests not actually repre—
sented in court.

In this case there is pending in court
on applicatron for partition of an es-
tate of between 812,000 and $15,000.
which is represented as going to ruin
us it is. Miss St. John has the life use
of the property and is about to be mar-
ried, it is understood. In the event of
her having children they will inherit
the estate at her death, bttt should Sim
die without issue the property reverts
to her father. It is therefore thought
advisable under the circumstances, in
view of the possibility of there bein;
issue. that the state's attorney should
represent such unborn heir or heirs at
the hearing on the partition of the
property and protect their interests.

It is seldom that such an order is
asked, but after having the case cx-
piaimrtl to him, yesterday. Judge. Hort
aback issue the order. By this
means the rights of those who may
possibly outlive the present legatee. are
protected and the will of the testntor Is
carried out.

SOMERSET, Pa., Jttne ll.—-Abner
McKinley. brother of the late presi-
dent, was found dead in a chair at his
home at 8 o'clock this morning. His
death came without warning to his
family. His negro servant who slept
n his room, was up with hint at 2
o'clock, and it is not known at what
.ime Mr, Mc. Kinley got ttp again. as
he did not wake his servants. Mrs.
McKinley walked into his room at 8
o'clock and found him sitting in ,a
‘hair. cold and apparently dead. A
thysician was summoned. who said
that death had probably occurred two
or three hours before.

MUSIC COMPOSER ARRESTED.

Landlord Jacob Schaub Believed Ho
Would Defraud Him.

Scandia Myloth. a music compos-
I, who has been boarding at Jacob
ichaub‘s house, in Washington street.
was made the victim of unfortunate cir-
cumstances yesterday. Myloth owed
board amounting to a dollar or so. He
was stopping there with a friend nam-
ed George Maker. Yesterday Maser
packed up their baggage and started
away. A warrant was issued for the
arrest of the two men for defraudln:
a boarding house keeper. Technicall '
to pack baggage and leave without no-
tifying the keeper of a boarding house
is construed as an attempt to defraud.
Myloth was arrested in Stamford, last.
evening. and was brought to this citv
this morning by Officer Walter Hall.
He felt very bad about the matter, and
said that he had intended to return,
but that his friend had inadvertently
been the (reuse of the trouble by tak.
ing the baggage away. He had plenty
of money. cheerfully paid Mr. Schauh
35, and this morning paid the costs 0!
the case and was discharged. Next
time he will probably be careful that
he does not have even the appearance
of dishonesty. as it is shown to be as
bad as the intent.
