This great metrop olis has a problem to aettle, one that la giving the authorities much thought not to speak of worry.' There Is an army of teachers Idle,' not private in structors, but teachera trained for the profession.

George Lansbury moved that the esti mate' for teachers' salaries be1 referred back to- enable the finance committee to bring up revised estimates making provision for' reducing classes, and thus finding work for unemployed teachers. The council had on its doorstep hundreds of people whom It had trained and for whom they had no employment '- Age XJmit Opposed. -' At the last meeting of the city coun cil the finance committee recommended that temporary clerks over 45 years old should not be put on the permanent staff., A debate followed and the pro pooed ,age limit was lost . 'Several, members demanded to know If it was an offense punishable by en forced Idleness for a man to be over 45 years fold. rule of the kind would be a premium on Idleness as well as a puVtlshment - It la def inltey settled that the king and queen will be present at .the In vestiture of the Prince of Wales at Carnarvon In July next The following day the king will probably open the new.

With four .suffragettes sitting right on the front row a very perceptible frost swept over the meeting or at least over , the leaders who had seats on the stage. For the front .row is the favorite vantage ground from which suffragettes like to hurl questions di rectly at the speakers and In the art of making such questions embarrassing the New, York suffragette has long shown1 herself a tMmtmtw'.j i The speaker,: too, was quick to see his danger. In fact at the very en trance of the first two - suffragettes, he bad retreated to the rear of the stage, explaining that the footlights In front were dassling his eyea But with the entrance of - Mrs. Belmont and Miss Milholland, he prepared to beat a hasty retreat A draft he explained which was blowing at the back of the stage, caught him squarely In the neck, and with this excuse, he brought his speech to an untimely end. . sV. ; - Nevertheless, as Is the custom, Mrs. Belmont arose and prepared to ask her questions; But at once, the leaders- on the stage began to play their trumps. With rare presence of mind a signal was flashed to the musicians who were stationed Vln the rear,; and the .bass drummer : got, busy. . Ostensibly, ; of course the beating was. only Intended aa a stimulator of .applause, but Mrs. Belmont was Inclined to the belief, that underneath It there were ulterior mo tives. When the drummer showed signs of weakening, Mre., Belmont again arose. Again the signal was flashed, and again the beating was resumed. Then for ten ralmites they , kept , It up. Whenever the drummer, hesitated, Mrs. Belmont arose and when Mrsc Belmont arose the drummer hastily resumed bis - job. At lasti however, Mrs. Belmont r settled quietly back in her seat and gave the next speaker a chance.

Eventually, however, the time oame for the Intellectual treat of the evening;. This waa the speech by Senator Agnew for whose especial campaign the meet ing was. being .held.' Against Agnew for weeks previous t the , suffragettes had waged an active campaign. ; Agnew, they had declared, had refused to admit that woman. Is human, and therefore en titled to vote. It waa accordingly lelt by the leaders in charge of the meeting that something must be done, that at all haiards Senator Agnew must not be subjected to a fire ef examination by the suffragettes. ; ETardly, therefore, had the last speaker to precede him f lnlHed, and the bass drum completed Its solo, when a ward leader leaping suddenly to his feet exclaimed In a terrlflo voice: "A' rat! a rati There's a, rat loose running about the ball." :, ' ' Instantly every ..leader present was on his feet .

"If ; they expected to stampede us,r Mrs., Belmont explained afterward, 'the young man should not have said a rat Women ; aren't afraid of , a rat It's only a mouse that 'frightens them." , With, the failure of this coup there seemed nothing left to do but to offer Senator Agnew' up. as a sacrifice to the suffragettes. Senator Agnew, however, proposed no such thing. He had brushed with, the suffragettes before and had decided that an Ignominious retreat would be better. Acordlnjrly, the chair man had no sooner, finished his highly laudatory remarks of the speaker-to-be than Senator Agenew, refusing even to come - forward to' the platform, Arose from a seat out In the audience and be-' gan to deliver iis speech. It took him only one minute. He had had a very busy day. ,There were still Several meetings where he might tie wanted to speak.
