Mr.Ilyrnr,cbatrman of the book committee, submitted the following report. 7lhe J'rrMltlent timt Member! of the Umemtcr hehoet Beard Uk.NTLi.MhN : A resolution of the beard adopted at lla last meetlug Instructed the oemmlttoe ou text books and course of In struction te report at this meeting en the ad visability of supplying te the children In our schools free at cost tbe books which are new provided by their patents or guardians. Your committee tlnd that the plan of fur nishing free books, although a new Idea In this community, is net an experiment It has been In operatleu In Ibe city of New Yerk ler 50 years, and lu Newark, N. J., for forty years. The system bat grown old In uiaay of tl.e cltitm ami towns of New Kiigland. It la still rapidly extendiug throughout the Ksstern states, and Is new very lamlllsrin tbe atatra or tbe West In our state the city of Philadelphia has been furnishing free beska ler many years, and tbe city of Chester has been lolloping its example for ten years. Hlnee tbe passage of tbe act of tbe IMnn sylvanlaleg alature, alllruied Juue'JI, lSvi, authorizing school directors te purchaie text boeka ler free use in tbe public schools, a a large msjerlty of tbe districts In llucks, Montgomery, Cheater and Delaware coun ties have availed tbemselvea of Its authority and are new furnishing books and station ery, free of all cost, te tbe children In their achuela. O.her count leu lu the state have adopted the system, but net se largely as tbe counties named. In the investigation of the subject of free books, your committee haa examined a geed deal of printed matter from dlflerent sources, and besldes,entered Intocerrespondenoe with the school ollleers et various districts in Pennsylvania, and It may beaald without reservation whatever that the reports from uvety source are strongly In favor of the sys tem. Your committee's correspondent at NorrU NerrU NorrU tewn says : Yeu msy rest aure thst II you adept the system of free books your teachers will be able te de bstter work and that it will meet with tbe approbation et your cltltena Tbe average cost ou number et pupils enrolled is about 70 cents te each pupIL" Tne report from West Chester is much stronger. Itsaya: "We consider it great advantage te community in every way. The Increased taxation when the system ia fully established la inappreciable, while tbe burden of expense which iathua lifted from these unable te bear It causes general relief and rejoicing. Children are net se early withdrawn, Intelligence la mere widely dli fused and kind el aatlsneU feeling pre. alia." Knewing tbe business ability and high character or tbe president of tbe beard of publle education la Philadelphia, your com. tulttee were desirous of having his opinion en the subject uuder consideration. Tbe following extraeta are taken lrem a letter dated March 10, 1837 : ' While the city of Philadelphia rinds a greater demand upon Ha treasury than It la able te meet as It would desire, I feat aure that nothing would lu due the city authorities te atrlke out the appropriation for boeka and atattou atatteu ery and thereby make It necessary ferpuplia te purebaae their own.

I leth moral and utilitarian considerations seem te demand that the day be observed by our school., and I aball be glad te carry out any instructions aa te tbe observance of tbe day wblcb the beard may see tit te give. Judging from the number of pupils who presented tbemselvea for examU nation in physiology with a view te promo, tlen Inte the high schools, there will be room enough te receive all prepared te enter next Heptember. Our secondary and grammar schools merit greater attention than they receive, espe cially aa regard a tbe pupils who de net pasa from tbem te tbe higher grades. A long step In this direction was taken when tbe Ingle-room ayatem was adopted. Tbe next step will probably be te elevate tbem above tbe sphere of mere preparatory achoela for tbe grade above tbem into independent schools doing a work or their own.

The company, with a few changes, waa the aame that haa been playing at the Bread street theatre, Philadel phia, for some lime past. The audience was of geed sire, but the house was by no means aa lull aa It waa expected te be. This waa no doubt owing te Ibe fact that this Is Hely week. Quite a large number of seats bad been secured, but beyond these few were old. The gallery did net contain ever lllty people. Much bas been said and written about this last work of the well known Kngtlsbtnen, and there are many differences of opinion. Tbe story el the opera has been described in the papers day alter day and It is lam I liar te all levers of amusements. While tbe opera msy net become aa popular aa aeine ethers written by Ullbert and Hulllvan, it certainly contains a great deal of geed music, wblcb appeals te tbe popular taste. The Urst act la much the latter df the two, and tbe ending is decidedly queer. The company of last night Is an excellent one sod, with musicians, contains almost lllty people. It la beaded by Dlgby Hell, the pop ular actor, who In the character llehin Oak itpj'lc, the here el tbe opera, Is given an op portunity te display his wonderful talent Ills singing was very effective and the fun he created was almost unceasing. 11.

Miss Annie Myers as Jleic Mayhud was charming and she sang welt Mrs. Laura Joyce Bell, who In former years was a great favorite in Lancaster but has been seen here but little of late, was very tine as Dame Itannalt. The music la adapted te her voice and her acting Is capital. Miss Bessie Kslrbalrn, who last year was a star In one of BannettA.

Tbe ether membera of the company did their work well. A numbeT of tbe soles, duets and tries were repeatedly encored and tbe audience seemed greatly pleased with the singing as well as the acting. The opera waa put en In tbe best of style, as the company carries Its own scenery. The scene in the picture gallery of Kuddygere castle, In tbe second act, could net have been better.

Tbe Jury at Fault In Finding He Died of Con gestion of ibe Brain. In accordance with tbe directions of Dis trict Attorney Weaver, Doctors M. L. Davis and Jehn J. Stewart, made a pest mortem examination of the body of Geerge Welsh, wbe was found dead in Hcheenberger's park en Wednesday morning. The second peat mortem was made at tbe request or tbe family, wbe bad every reason te believe tbat deceased had been foully dealt with. Tbelr chief reason for tbat belief was a wound en tbe back of the bead, which had net been no. ticed by the coroner's physician when he examined the body. Corener Henaman, Jehn A. Ceyle, esq., counsel for the family, and District Attorney Weaver, and a few ethers were present at the pest mortem at the beuse of deceased, which was begun at 5 o'clock en Thursday evening. Overan hour was consumed In the operation. Tbe result reached was that Geerge Welsh's death did net result from violence, but the conclusion of tbe physicians is tbat death did net result from congestion of tbe brain, as testified te by tbe coroner's physi cian and se found by tbe Jury. Tbe examination was made by Dr. Davis, wltbDr.btewartasblsasslstant Tbey found en the back or tbe head two scalp weuuds, each about one-half inch in length, but tbese wounds did net penetrate te tbe skull and consequently could net bav e caused his death. Tbey teund no congestion or the brain beyond tbat which would be produced by alcoholism wblcb, with exposure, in their Judgment, caused death. The wounds were such as might have been produced by Welsh railing en a couple or small atones. Dr. Davis says the family were Justified In demanding that such an examination should be made as would determine tbe true cause of death, and forever settle tbe doubts wblcb might exist as te the cause of death. The wounds en tbe back of tbe head were sus picious circumstances, and their full extent could only be axeertalued by athoreugh post mortem examination. That has been made and the family are new satisfied. It is due te Corener Uensman te state tbat be is In no ways te blame for tbe necessity el tbe second pest mortem examination. At tbe inquest his directions te tbe physician were explicit He instructed Dr. Compten te make a thorough examination of tbe body for marks of violence and when tbe physi cian reported tbat there were none except a row bruises en tbe race which were no doubt received through a fall, be did all that was required of him. The aecend pest mortem cost tbe county an additional ?J0, which could have been saved had tbe Urst examination been a thorough one. If tbe lessen learned by tbe after developments of tbls inquest are heeded tbe county may be saved such additional ex penses in the future. Tbe funeral of Welsh took place this alter alter neon at '1 o'clock from his residence, Ne. 551 Green street. The circumstances sur rounding his death had tbe effect of attract ing a very large crowd. Tbe Interment was tnade at St Mary's cemetery. Huty Weds Slxtseu.
