LANCASTER WATCHES. IT Off SWITZERLAND Endorses Pennsylvania IN II Ell Lancaster Watcbes. Lam-astek, Nov. Isl, 187t. A. ISitnkr, Esq., Manager : Dear iSir: In answer to your iiuiuiiics ol Oct.i'Sth, 1 have to say that 1 was absent on uiyieccut European lour just four tnouths, traveling adiitauce of 12,000 utiles. I canted uith me a watch made at i lie Lancaster Watch Factory. Before starting 1 set it to Mm time or the lVnnsvlvania Ilallroad. It was never changed during the entire trip, and UPON MY IlKTUKN. IT WAS ON THE MINUTE WITH THE SAME llAlLUOAU TIME. When at lieucva, Switzerland, with a dozen or more American friends, 1 visited tho cele brated Watch Factory of 1'atek, Philippe A Co., whose American agents are the 'great house or Titlany & Co., New York. After be ing shown through the factory, we were con ducted to the Salesroom, where our attention was called by tho Superintendent to a large n umber ot very line watches, the product ot the establishment. lie also gave us ids reasons for Miinkingthat better watches could be made in Switzerland than in American. When he had concluded, 1 handed him my Lancaster waicn ami asKeu mm what he thought oi it. Alter examining it with the eye ot an expert, and with marked interest, he replied, speak ing at brief intervals: ! HAVE HEVEK SEEN THIS WATCH BEFORE IT IS A GOOD WATCH IT IS BETTER THAN THE WALTHAM IT IS THE BEST WATCH MADE IN AMERICA." What adds force to his opinion is the fact that he had carefully studied all tho finest American watches ex hibited at our Centennial Exposition. All my lrlends heard the remarks above quoted, and will vouch lor the accuracy ot my report ot their.. Yours truly, J. P. WICKEUSHAM. Tlds opinion was again expressed with even stronger emphasis to a party ot Ameri cans recently traveliugin Switzerland. Under d.itcot 'ticneva, August ', 1831," Miss L. B. Gaia writes, in a letter published in the Lan caster Xcw Era: 'Mr. Perriue bought two Imndtoiiie watches lrom the leading manu facturers here, and Dr. Hampton. ot our party, showed Miein his Lancaster Watch. They ex amined it and said it was the best American watch they had ever seen MLCHSUPERIOR TO ANY OTHER MADE IN THE UNITED STATES." Second Letter (1882) Next Week. SAMUKL H.

Harliuaii, lioin the committee on buildings and grounds, reported verbally that, tho Manor street public school build ing is rapidly approaching completion ; that it is now being roofed and it is time the necessary school furniture was boing contracted for. The Case of Air. Gates. Dr. Heir, from tho committee to whom was referred the oral charge of intemper ance made by Mr. Smcyeh against R. S. Gales, principal of the Rockland street .secondary school, at the late meeting of the board, made a report,of which tho fol lowing is the substance : " Mk. Pkksidknt : At a sjccial meeting of the school board, held June 15, 1882, "on motion or JIr. Warfel, the election of ptiucipal of the Roeklandstieetsccoudary school was postponed, and tho veibal charge of drunkenness, made by Mr. Sineych against Mr. Gate., and any other charges that may be made weio loferred to the visiting committee of tho southeast division for investigation, with instruc tions to report, at the next regular meet ing of tho boatd. Puisuant to this motion, your commit tee met at the oflice of its chairman, Dr. M. L. Ilerr, at 8 o'clock a. ra., June 22, 1882. Mr. Smeych, who had been notitied that tho verbal charge made by him before the board must be submitted in writiug, on approaching before your committee, proceeded to explain his action. He stated that ho had no personal feeling against Mr. Gates : that thev had always been very good friends ; that ho had not made and could not now make any direct charge of drunkenness against him, and that his statement before the board was based on information received from Mr. Geo. E. Zellcrs, who, on account of his duties elsewhere, could not be present. At an adjourned meeting of your com mittee, held at the residence of Mr. Mc Conomy, at 8:110 p. m., June 2:, 1882, the letter which is herewith submitted ami road'o part, of this report, was received from Mr. Zellers : l-AosTWt, .1 nne 22, IS2. I'olhe Visiting Committee oj the Southeast Di vision : I hereby declare that I do not now ami did not at any time charge R. S. Gates with drunkenness iti the school room, and wish it understood that I have no evidence to that effect to prescut to or to produce before tho commute. George E. Zellhks. Tin letter effectually disposes of the chargo of drunkenness, from which your committeo take great pleasure iu pro nouncing Mr. Gates completelyetonerated. Then followed other charges made against Mr. Gates by Mr. Slaymaker to tho effect that Mr. Gates violated the rules of tho board by not having the Scriptures read at tho opening of the schools ; by being irregular iu opening the schools, and by paying too much attention to his first class to tho detriment of the second ; also, that his methods of teach ing are not good, he has not sufficient energy and industry and his school is con ducted in a slow and slipshd manner, and that tho conduct of the pupils is not properly looked after during recess The committeo find : " First. That while tho pupils trans ferred from Mr. Gates's school to the high school are as proficient as those transferred from other schools, their pro ficiency is attained by special drill, aud that the special eUort thus made to bring those for transfer up to tho proper stand ard is at tho expense of the other pupils iu tnat department of tho school taught by Mr. Gates himself. On his own admis sion, it appears B class was for sever al days left without any lessons, except that tho class was in a general ?ray told to spend the time, in studying arithmetic. "Second. That while the general character of tho teaching iu tho school, so far as tho principal is concorucd, might be much worse, it might also be a great deal better, and might be calculated to have a butter iufluence on tho pupils. "Third. That tho discipline iu Mr. Gates' school appears to bo as good as in others, but that it is maintained through fear rather than through respect for the teacher. There appears to be a good deal of corporal punishment administered in the school which is not, as required by the rules, reported to tho visiting commit tee. " Fourth. That while taking into con sideration the fact that the Rockland street school is more unfavorably situated than aiiy other school iu tho city, there yet seems to be an tiuduo number of appli cations for removal from that school to others of tho same grade, aud that a ma jority of complaints arise from dissatisfac tion with Mr. Gates himself. " Fifth. That Mr. Gates is rather lax in tho matter of observiug tho rules laid down by tho board for tho government of the schools, it was shown, for instance, first, that he is frequently not in his place iu tho morning at tho required time namely, fif teen minutes before nine o'clock : that ho is generally there at the opening of school, but that school is sometimes not opened until five minutes after nine ; second, that the Scriptures are not read every morning as required by tho rules ; third, that tho pupils are not called iu at the proper time at recess, which is frequently continued to 3:50 aud sometimes to 3:55 p. in. ; thereby keeping the pupils on the playground jit a timo when they ought to boat their .stud ies or reciting iu their class rooms. " It may be proper to say here, in jus tice to Mr. Gates, that he attributes his want of punctuality to tho erratic charac ter of his watch, forgetting that tho town clock is tho standard of time adobted by tho board ; and that the Scriptures are not read, as lequired, on account of be ing pressed for lime. " He explains the extension of the time; for recess by the fact that during that time ho is always busily engaged with his A class, which is kept in for tho purpose of iccciving special instruction and look ing over papers. Ho pursues this course because ho deems it beneficial to the wholo school, inasmuch as tho lower classes will all in turn become the A cl.iss and will thou be recipients of the special instruction gh'cu during tho period of re cess. "Sixth. That, notwithstanding liij drawbacks indicated in this leport, Mr. Gates has been working harder aud show ing an improvement iu gencial icsults dining tho last year." Mr. Gates Klectoit. Tlio report having been read, Mr. G. W. Zcchcr stated that the investigation had been made in violation of the rules of tho board; that theio having been no charges iu writiug made against Mr. G.itcs there was nothing for tho commit tee to consider ; aud that tho matter, having been referred to tho committee while the yeas and nays were being called, aud alter Mr. Gates had received a majoiity of the votes of tho members present, was clearly out of order. Ho believed Mr. Gates was legally elected at the last meeting, and without intending any disrespect to the committee, ho moved to lay the report on the table. Mr. Johnston sccouded the motion. Tlio yeas and nays wcie demanded and resulted as follows : Ye,as Messrs. Breneman, Ebcrman, Jackson, Johnston, Marshall, Rhoads, Ringwalt, Richards, Samson, Schwebel, Wcsthacffer and G. V. Zcchcr 12. Nays Messrs. Byrno, Cochran, Eris mau, Evans, Haas, llattmau, Herr, Lev crgood, McConomy, Morton, Oblender, Ricmeusuyder, Slaymaker, Smeych, A. J. Snyder, E. G. Snyder, Warfel, Wilson, C Zecher and Baker, picsident. So tho motion to lay the tepoit on tho table was lost. Several members who voted to lay it on the table took occasion to say, iu casting their vote that they iulcuded no disrepect to the committee, but thought tho pio cccdings unwarranted by the rules ot the board ; and several others who voted against laying it on the table, stated tha'. they deemed the report of the committee a vindication of Mr. Gates from an tin founded complaint. A motion to receive aud tile the report of the committeo was then passed without an objection. Mr. Wilson moved to proceed to tho election of a principal for the Rockland street secondary school. Mr. Slaymaker moved to amend, to postpone tho election for one month, and in tho meantime advertise for a teacher. Mr. Slaymaker's amendment was rejected and Mr. Wilson's motion agreed to. Tho roll being called the vote was as follows : Messrs, Brcucraau, Brosius, Catpenter, Erismau, Herr, Jackson, Johnston, Lever- good, Maishall, McConomy, Ublcnuer, Riemcnsnyder, Rhoads, Ringwalt, Rich ards, Samson, Schwebel, A. J. Snyder, E. G. Suydcr, Westhaeffer, Wilson. G. W. Zecher, and Baker, president 21 voted for Mr. R. S. Gates. Messrs. Cochran, Evans, Haas, Hart man, Slaymakcr, and C. Zecher 0 voted for A. It. Stamy. Messrs. Morton and Warfel 2 voted for 11. F.-Ville. Mr. Byrne voted for W. E. Barton. Mr. Smeych declined to vote. Mr. Gates was declared elected, miscellaneous lius'.nesx. On motion the board proceeded to vote for a teacher for Miss Blanche Lichty s school, the election having been postponed at last meeting, because of Miss Lichty's illness, which prevented her from being present for examination by tho city super intendent when the other applicants wero examined. Having subsequently passed a very creditable examination. Miss Lichty I was unanimously re-elected. I Samuel It. Slaymaker, J. H. Gerhart, Geo. 21. Dorwart, C. Recso Eby, U. II. Blackwood wero uorai scholarships to which the board is entitled in Franklin and Mar Bball college. Thero berns some diversity of opinion a to how many scholarships tho board is en titled to aud how many aro now filled the question was, on motion of Dr. Levcrgood, referred to the judiciary committeo to re port at next meeting of tho board : aud also report tho grade of tho several applicants. On motion of Mr. Warfel tho committeo on furniture and supplies wero directed to contract for the necessary furniture lor the Manor sheet schools. Mr. Hartman presented tho following matters, which wero taken up seriatim and adopted : To paint tho new high school buildiug and fences ; to paint tho old high school buildiug and placo an iron fence around tho ground iu placo of tho old wooden fence ; to furnish 150 fcetofhoso and a reel for tho Lemon street school houses ; to purchase a lawn mower for tho janitor of the high school. On motion of Mr. Brosius the property committee was authorized to make a con tract for coal for the public schools for tho ensuing year. The consideration of the amciiduiouts to rules 100 aud 101, aud tho proposed altera tions iu the curriculum of the high schools, were postponed until next meeting. Adjourned. Keport ot City Superintendent. Lancaster, July 5, 1832. To the Jlourtl of School Directors of the City of Lancaster : 'Gentlemen: Your city superintendent submits the followiug lepoit of tho pub lic schools for tho month of Juno. No re port having been made iu May, tho statis tics lor that mouth aie given along with those for June : Iu May tho enrollment was 2f9o3, tho average attcudauco was 2,47!, tho average percentage was 8U.

With a view of raising tho standard of qualification for admission to tho high .school, the questions wero made more seat ching than herotofoic, which accounts to sonic extent for tho lower average at taiued. As far as lay iu my power, I ex amined the classes myself, not fiom any want of confidence iu the tcaehcis, but at their request, uud for the purpose of ob taining a mote thorough knowledge of the woik of the different teachers and grades.
