WiLKES-BARnE, Oct. 1. Nanticoke, a bor ough of several thousand inhabitants in Lu lerce countv. is exneriencins a local sensa tion of a mostperilouscharaeter. Tho ques tion at issue is tho management of thu pub lic schools. The labor )rty elected a new School Board lust spring hy Iinudsomo ma jorities, but, owing to tho omission of tjieei lying the length of term to which each man was elected to county courts havo decided that tho board is unqualified to act. Tho other board have been endeavoring to tako possession of the school property, but have met with ill success. The officers of the coal and iron police havo been diiven Irom the town anil hundreds of frenzied citisens parado tho streets. Tho Sherilf has sworn in 150 piiecial deputies, who urnitd wuh muskets, under the commaiid of Deputy Sherilf Conniff.aru charged with lhereswii sibilily of maintaining jieace, The purties to the dispute are worked np to tho greatest pitch of excitement. Any moment the citi zens may find themselves involved in a bloody riot. Only by the prompt measures of the Deputy Sheriff last evening was this averted. As it was, a prominent and weal thy citizen of lliehoroiigh,Thcmas McNeesh, was stabbed. The sight of tho bloful pro duced great agitation. Ho liclongs to the labor jirty and is considered by them a leader. One word from him for un attack would have plunged the tow n into a merci less liuht. As it was, his ndt ice and plead- in is tor lienre were hooded. At this hour there is no disturbance, but gatherings of titan mv.n fl.A btra.it mritfvrk ra thu man- ' leut and df6jn to the &hnft" deputies Our Count r I'alr.
