WATCII FOR BOMBS
IN COAL SHIPMENTS
Infernal Machine Found In
Cargo at Trenton Leads to
Extra Precautions Here,
The finding of a bomb In a carload of
coal Intended for export nt Trenton has
caused extra vlgllanco to bo exercised at
the coal piers where vessels of tho bel
ligerents nro loaded nt this port. Alt em
ployes havo been Instructed to watch the
coal carefully ns It runs down the shutes
Into tho holds. In addition to this the
masters of the steamships loading there
havo detailed several members of the
crews of the vessels to keep n "weather
eyo'' out for Infemat machines In the coal.
Coal shipments through this port for
belligerent countries are not heavy, al
though nn unusual number of cargoes
recently have been sent to Italy. Tho
trouble In tho Welsh coat fields, however,
has boomed our coat trade with South
America and Is expected to Increase, the
Kuroprnn business.
At the Port Richmond Plors of tho
Heading Hallway the coal Is loaded from
ii lop nouom cars along cnutcs. At me
Pennsylvania Itnllroad piers at Green
wich an entire carload of coal is dumped
in a unit minuto by one of tno most mod
ern and fastest coal loading devices
along the Atlantic coast. It would bo
more dimoult to detect a bomb In the
coal loaded by this machine than In tho
chuto way.
Uunkcr coot men who load vessels from
barges In tho river aro also taking every
precaution to prevent bombs from getting
Into their coal. Watchmen are employed
to supervise tho loading.

months.
William Ash, principal of tho Trades
School. Is In chargo of these Continuation
Classes for Teachers In this city.
"The child labor law provides that
every child botween tho nges of 14 and
16 years who has cone to work shall re
turn to school for a certain number of
hours each week to continue tho. Inter
rupted education," said Mr. Aah. "The
school Is not a trade, or vocational school,
aa Is generally misunderstood, but alms
to train teachers to corrclato tho school
work with tho Industry In which, tho
pupil Is engaged."
In tho opinion of prominent- educators.
tho child labor law ought to bo ono of
tho greatest factors In eliminating the
social driftwood of tho city. Young boys
and girls who heretoforo havo left school
at nn early ago to engage In work whlcfc
because of their unfitness must of neces
sity prove unprofitable become eventually
tho bums of tho town, tho flotsam and
Jetsam of tho labor world, employed for
a fow weeks and then for a few weeks
more JQbless.
By the corelatlon of their dally occu
pation with their school studies t'nese
children will bocome more ofllclont citi
zens. It Is believed. Moreover, Jf their
education is enforced at this critical
period when, according to pedagogical
experts, nearly every school child Is Bmit
tcn with tho dcslro to leave school and
get out to work, It Is thought the deslro
for a higher education will be stimulated
any many girls and boys will be Inspired
wun tno wisli lor a college education. -
"It has becomo a recognized fact. Mr.
Ash said in discussing the law and tho
probable effect of Its enforcement, "that
the majority or children do not leave
school because of economic necessity.
They loave because they want spending
money, or hotter clothes, or because
school does not Interest them.
"Tho working children who will come
to tho classes In January will receive a
different Bort of Instruction from that
which they got when they attended tho
regular grades. Every, child's curriculum
will be adapted to that trade or occupa
tion in which he Is employed. The teach
ers In their course this summer will take
trips to the various factories and places
of Industry so as to get a background
for the Instruction which they will have
to give."
One of tho most serious complications
which the enforcement of tho bill ore-
sent8, according to Mr. Ash, will bo the
adjustment of tho children to their
classes. Many pf them have been out of
school for some time, and It Is not
thought probable that they will bo put
bnck Into tho regular grades which they
left- This will mean that other places
of Instruction will havo to bo provided,
slnco tho bill provides that tho school
which the child Is required to attend
must be within a reasonable) distance of
his place of employment.
Charles Schlow and Leonard A. Let
tlnger, graduates of tho Philadelphia
School of Pedagogy, who have taught In
tho grade nnd trnde schools, havo been
selected to Instruct the teachers In their
'four weeks' courses. They were chosen
because of their experience with tho
problems relating to child activity.
Dclawaro County Voters Renew Jury

A bitter political fight, based on the nl

the District Attornoy. A thorough Inves
tigation of every point In tho alleged

Hannum In regard to tho failure to bring
the wrongdoers to justice Is about to bo

Hannum's candidacy has created a stir
among the exponents of good government
in tho county who have criticised him
severely for failure to prosocuto properly
the alleged Grand Jury stuffcrs.

Frank Freund, of tho Belgrade and Clear
