Prof. Suhrle Defeated
Editor Press:-"
The 13th of May, 1902, brought to a
close, the most successful term in the
history of the Public Schools of St.
Marys. Under the supervision of Prof.
Suhrie the schools of this enterprising
town attained an enviable reputation
throughout this section of the state.
Seldom does it fall to the lot of a
principal of schools to command the
respect and hearty co-operation of
pupils, teachers and patrons, but such
was the distinction attained by Prof.
Suhrie, due undoubtedly not alone to
his personality, but to his untiring and
disinterested efforts in behalf of his
schools.
The surprise, the utter consternation
of his legions of friends may easily be
imagined when, during commence
ment week, it was rumored that there
was a movement on foot to dislodge
him, to give place to another evidently
having more political influence.
Immediately the friends of Prof.
Suhrie set to work and upon the sup
position that since the board of direc
tors, represents the people, it would
be necessary only to make known their
desires to that body, a number of peti
tions wore drafted. One of these came
from the High School pupils, among
whom he had labored for five years,
one from the teachers, who were per
haps in the best position to know what
had been accomplished, educationally,
and another, from the patrons, who
fully appreciated his devotion to their
dearest interests. The papers were
presented to the board and so confident
were all concerned, in the sincerity of
the gentlemen comprising this body,
and their devotion to duty, that it was
felt unnecessary to proceed further.
However, the news finally came that
the petitions had borne 110 weight
whatever, and despite the fact that 110
grievance could be brought against
Prof. Suhrje, the vote of the board
stood four to two against him. Then
it was the patrons realized that their
interests and the interests ofthe School
Board, were entirely distinct from each
other.
To prove to Prof. Suhrie that though
defeated he was still the people's
choice, an unusual ovation was accord
ed him Thursday evening. The stud
ents, teachers and patrons of the school
accompanied by the band marched to
hi:; homo on Centre street. After a
selection by the band, amid cheers and
calls for Suhrie, he appeared upon the
veranda. The president of the class
of'o2, Anthony Ingrain, then stepped
forward, and after a short address, in
which h<! assured hi;, former teacher of
the loyalty of the students, presented
him with tne petition which had been
signed by all the students of the High
School. P. J. Lion, vice-principal of
schools, a co-laborer with Prof. Suhrie
for five years, after a short address
presented the petition signed by each
of the teachers. Mr. J. S. Speer, presi
dent ol'the Specr Carbon works, hand
ed over to Prof. Suhrie the petition
signed by two hundred patrons. An
interesting feature of the demonstra
tion was a banner carried by the High
School boys, and bearing on one side
the inscription, "We are still for Suh
rie," on thti other, "Justice is Bleed
ing.'' A touching ssene was the pre
sentation of flowers, by pupils of the
lower grades, eager at all times to
show their boioved principal the place
which he occupied in their affections.
Proi' Suliric then responded with a
speech which he held th • undivided at
tention of an assemblage consisting of
no less than 1,000 persons. He made
known to his audience some interesting
facts concerning the action of the
board, which resulted in his defeat.
His nomination was made by Mr.
Henry Lulir, who had served during
the five years of Prof. Suhrie' H princi
palship, and who therefore fully under
stood the struggle which had been
made in the interest of the schools.
Mr. Luhr urged that if there were any
charges against Prof. Suhrie, that they
should be immediately brought before
the board. As might have been ex
pected none were brought. The two
directors supporting Prof. Suhrie were
the only two who were patrons of the
school, the only two who during the
past year were prompt and regular in
attendance at meetings, and the only
two who held inviolable their oath
faithfully to discharge their duties,
one of which is the visiting of schools.
In the face of these and other facts,
the audience felt with Prof. Suhrie.
that his defeat was 110 disgrace, and
proved by frequent applause, that he
was surrounded by friends, willing at
ny time to rally to his support.
The band then rendered a number of
inspiring strains during which Prof.
Suhrie's friends crowded about him to
assure him that he still held it place in
their estimation from which 110 politi
cal or other pernicious scheme could
ever dislodge him. xxx

Kindness to Animals.
One of the highest and noblest ten
' dencies of modern civilization is evi
denced by its pleadings for kindness to
the dumb animals which Providence
created for the pleasure, the profit, and
the protection of man.
Be it said to the honor of our in
stincts, our education, and our country
the instances of wanton cruelty to ani
mals, such as arise from the dark pass
ions of a diabolical mind, or the lack of
sympathy of a coarse-grained, sordid
nature, are comparatively rare. Yet
there exists a large cla3s of cases of
cruelty to animals that arises from
ignorance of the effect of certain modes
of treatment, and an underestimation
of the degree of the animal.
However, the object of the Humane
Society is the same in both cases, i. e.,
the prevention of cruelty, no matter
what form it takes, or what its origin.
But the remedy is different. In the
one case, the Society must rescue tlie
animal and punish the offender, in the
other, a process of education must be
systematically followed.
Begin the campaign by organizing
societies wherever the soil promises
growth, in the schools, in the churches
and in every city, town and village.
Get the young people thorougly in
terested. Raise funds and apply them
to the dissemination of appropriate
literature, to the purchase of food,
shelter, and equipment, for the pro
tection and amelioration of the con
dition of such animals as the society
must needs care for. Petition the State
and National legislatures for the enact
ment of salutary laws to further the
good purpose.
In short, let it be the aim of the So
ciety to create a strong public senti
ment against all forms of maltreatment
of animals, and a new era will gradu
ally dawn for the long-suffering, ill
requited work animal, the faithful per
sonal protector, the dog, and all the
various creatures that minister to the
amusement of mankind.
Disastrous Firs.
The dwelling house and store, occupi
ed by 11. A. Smith and family, atSizer
ville, was discovered to be on fire last
Monday afternoon, the fire being locat
ed on second floor. When discovered
the upper portion of the building was
enveloped in flames. Mr. Smith met
with a severe loss, all, or most, of his
furniture and clothing, as well as
$106.00 in money was lost. Mr. Smith's
loss is §4OO. No insurance.
Mr. N. R. Covel, who owns the build
ing, loses SBOO. We are informed he
carried a small amount of insurance.
In addition to the above, several of
Mr. Smith's boarders lost their clothing.
QUAY ADMIRES ELKIN.
IIARKISBCRC, June 11. —Judge Pennypacker was nominated because
th" conservative Republican sentiment of the State believ
ed that his selection was in the line of wisdom and politi
cal strength. We have a standard-bearer who will draw
votes to the whole ticket and benefit the Congressional
and Legislative candidates in all the close districts. The
attempt to array the country against the city failed, as
all such attempts should fail. As for John P. Elkin, I
have nothing but admiration and genuine sympathy for
him. He made a gallant fight because he is a gallant man.
He is a young man with a bright future, and can afford to
wait.

Little Child Lost.
Last Sunday the citizens of Gibson
township, in the neighborhood of
Huntley Siding, near Driftwood, were
greatly excited over the disappearance
of Wm. W. Johnson's little four year
old daughter. The little tot wandered
from home about seven o'clock Sun
day evening and all efforts to find her
were fruitless until Monday noon. All
of Sunday night and Monday morning
about fifty men, women and children
scoured the country. About noon on
Monday the exhausted child was found
lying upon its face in tiie road about
four miles from its home, after travel
ing all night through the woods. It
was taken to his home and is apparent
ly none the worse for its terrible ex
perience. Mr. Johnson, who is P. &
E. R. R. section foreman at Huntley, is
very grateful to all who assisted in the
search and recovery of his child.
To WHOM IT MAY CONCERN:—
Mr. C. R. Little formerly a resi
dent (if Olean, N. Y., but now an
employe of the Penna. R. R. Co., at this
place, desires to announce that he has
been honest in his dealings, and refers
all interested parties to F. D. Leet &
Co., at this place or Odell Brothers of
Eldred, both of whom he has had
dealings.

Children's Day at M. E. Church.
The First Methodist Episcopal Church
is noted for the excellence of HB Child
ren's Day observances, bnt it is the
general consensus of opinion that the
program of last Sunday evening, in its
arrangement and execution, far sur
passed all previous attempts. "Sun
shine" was the subject and the title
was no misnomer, for the hour was re
plete with bright songs, sweetly sung
and with recitations prettily rendered.
Preliminary to the opening of the pro
gram and to inspiring music, furnished
by the school orchestra, the primary
department numbering more than one
hundred, marched and counter march
ed through the aisles of the church and
was seated on the platform. Then fol
lowed individual and class songs and
recitations in which the children ac
quitted themselves finely, eleciting
many expressions of admiration and
delight from the audience.
Perhaps, however, the part of the
program most tender and touching and
that drew tears to many eyes was the
graduation of twenty-four boys and
girls, from the Primary Department,
to each of whom was presented a
diploma of merit. The class address
was given by Master Mark Ellis in a
style truly manly and with much
depth of feeling. The orchestra under
the able direction of Mr. Lawson
Sprout, played with much spirit and is
plainly an important aid in the musical
selections of the school.
The decorations, while elaborate
were not overdone. A back ground of
rich evergreen, bearing in letters of
pure white the words "Sunshine" and
"Growing." Flowers in great variety
and abundanco were tastefully display
ed about the platform forming a picture I
pleasing to the eye.
The skillful planning of the superin-!
tendent, Mr. T. B. Lloyd, is worthy of !
all praise, while faithfully seconding
all his efforts were Mrs. Geo. Metzger, |
Jr., Mrs. J. P. McNarney, Miss Nellie ;
Lingle and Miss Lillian Heilman, the
cor.i... '. l 6cn program.
A conservative estimate place the ;
attendance at eight hundred. The col
lection for the day was about sso—a big [
advance. This, after deducting ex
penses, will be applied to the Children's i
Educational Fund.
Will Leave This Week.
W. M. Lawler and family and Miss i
Maggie Lyons, (Mrs. Lawler's sister), i
leave this week for Ilichwood, W. Va., !
where Mr. Lawler has accepted a posi
tion as manager of the Cherry River

friends here who wish them well in
their new home.
ELKIN SAYS: "NO SORE SPOTS"
' IlAiimsijunci, June 11.—The fight is over and I liave been defeated,
but there are no sore spots about me. I said when I
started in the fight that I would remain until the end, and
I did. During the campaign I said I would support the
nominee, whoever lie might be, and I propose to keep my
word. My friends gave me loyal support, and 1 am
deeply grateful to them for their fidelity.

Curiosities.
One of the curiosities that the Agri
cultural Department has lately intro
duced in California is the tree tomato
which was brought from Peru. The
fruit is almost identical with the ordi
nary tomato, except that it grows on
trees. The seagrape is another new
comer, lately introduced into Florida
from the West Indies. It grows in
barren sand, the fruit coming in large
clusters, pink in color and resembling
the apricot in taste. The jujube Plant
of the Orient is being grown more and
more extensively in Florida and Cali
fornia. The fruit is excellent for jellies
and promises to become a favorite
staple.

Speaking of "Snaix."
"Speaking of snakes" said H. P.
Nelson, of Dubois, to a Bradford "Era"
man, "snakes fire certainly peculiar
creatures. Now you take rattlesnakes
and put them in captivity—they'll stay
there for years without eating. Gener
ally they become stupefied, but they
can be aroused all right. They just
seem to live on air. In Cameron
county, where I grew up, there is an
immense number of rattlesnakes. Near
Driftwood, a man blew tip a den of
them one day. At least 100 of the rep
tiles were killed in one buueh. I have
killed many of them myself. One way
which I had of dealing with the snakes
was to shoot their head off. After de
capitaing them in this manner, I'd slit
slit them open and take out the fat.
I've often secured a [dollars worth of
oil in one snake. There is some talk
about rattles indicating how old a
snake is. The fact is that rattles are
not a sure means of telling. Some big
snakes and old ones have but a few
I rattles. They have lost them during
| their lives and that is something that
I occurs to many of them.
"I had a bird dog that used to kill
rattlers whenever ho had a chance to
do so. He would never attack them
while they were lying still. But wnen
they made a move and started to crawl
toward him or away from him, he
would grab them in his teeth, break
their I ic 1 ' ;o -T. shit'ee them to
death. He was too qui ;k for them
and they never bit him.
"I am not punning when I say that a
rattlesnake should never be'allowed to
rattle a man. Just watch the reptile
and give it a quick smash with a club,
stone or other missile, or shoot it, and
that ends the incident right there.
"Snake hunting is regarded as a
pastime in Cameron county. 1 know I
used to enjoy it. There is just enough
danger about it to keep up interest."

Pennypacker Is Well Liked.
The Wilkes-Barre "Record."
Notwithstanding; the fact that Judge
! Pennypacker lias not taken any part
! in active politics, and has been known
to the people only as a Common Pleas
Judge, his nomination for Governor is
' received with the most intense satisfac
j tion. The fact that ho was brought into
i the field by Senator Quay will un
| doubtedly lose him some Republican
' votes, but the defection will not be
( serious in any section of the State.
! Judge Pennypacker's life has been
such as to bear any scrutiny to which
I it can possibly be subjected, even in
j the most heated political campaign
For twelve years he has scrupulously
' maintained the dignity and honor of
| the judiciary. No Common Pleas
Judge in Pennsylvania has a better or
; cleaner record of twelve years on the
bench. He has not at any time in his
life been a political self-seeker, nor has
he ever been the drudge or the tool of
any political machine or boss.
