Stray Topics From Old New York.
NEW YORK, Feb. S. Close upon the
heels of the board of education's re
port that it Is "dead broke" the
women teachers have their campaign,
which was carried on with so much
vigor last year, for equal pay. "Equal
pay for equal work," Is again the slo-
fran, and the prettiest and most charm
ng Bchoolma'ams that can be found
are to be sent to Albany to win over
the legislators. But the man who op
posed the fight last year, feels that the
present condition of the board of edu
cation's treasury will prevent any im
mediate action being taken on the bill.
Superintendent Maxwell ha also not
been scared off by th lack -of fond
and is already outlining plans for th
establishment of trade schools, such as
there are In Germany. Furthermore,
he asks for the formation of department
of hygiene, to look after the. health of
scnoot cnuaren, in a more eiiecuve
way than Is possible while that depart'
merit is under the supervision of the
board of health.
Although the second trial of Harry
K. Thaw for the murder of Stanford
White, attracted very little Interest,
compared to the first trial last winter,
still praise was heard very frequently
of the manner In which Judge Dowllng,
the presiding Justice conducted the case
The rapid way In which the case pro
gressed was a revelation to the bench
and bar of the city. He kept both
prosecution and defenas at work almost
without cessation and as he lopped off
much of the tedious testimony that en
cumbered the first trial saved a great
deal of expense to the taxpayers. Tho
record that he made In conducting the
case has caused him to be one of tho
most talked of men In th public eye
at present.
Steps are being taken to relieve the
terrific congestion in New York's fam
ous Ghetto. The thousands of Jewish
Immigrants that have been pouring In
to the lower east side of Manhattan nave
raised the rents to such a pitch that
the slightest suggestion of "hard times''
makes it necessary for families to move
by the soores. But even With this na
tural exodus the Ghetto is crowded far
beyond its normal capacity, with the
result that the Educational alllatace,
with the financial backing of the mil
lionaire Jacob Schtff, has organised a
removal bureau. The purpose of the
bureau is to assist needy Jews to leave
the Ghetto for other 'environments
where .their chances of success will be
better.
