All preparations were made to enter into the work with as little delay as possible. Every scholar was furnished with a list of the books he or she would re quire and was Instructed to pur chase them at the earliest possible moment. It was announced that the pupils would be held as strictly ac countable for failures in recitations Tuesday as they will be later In the year. Scores of new- students, who fail ed for one reason or another to ap pear Monday, applied for tickets of admission from Superintendent Sla ton Tuesday forenoon. The increase In the number of pupils in the schools of the city has resulted in considerable congestion in several of the buildings.
