Paul S. Iteinseh, whose resignation as
I'nited States minister to China was
accepted by President Wilson some time
ago, xvas entertained by the Interna
tional Antiopium Association on the
eve of his departure for America.
Doctor Iteinseh promised to work in
an endeavor to prevent Americans from

to free Chinese manhood from the evils
of morphia, which are greater than

Teachers Add to Troubles by Union
izing and Demanding More Pay
Mahanoy City. Pa., Sept. 19. The
Mahanoy City School Board is on the
verge of bankruptcy with its teachers
and janitors crying for increased sal
aries. They recently formed a union,
allied with the American Federation
of Labor, nnd unless a substantial in
crease is soon forth coming n strike xvill
result. "The teachers have so declared.
They are not satisfied with the increase
granted by the state.
The district is about $120,000 in
debt, the tax for school purposes is nt
its legal limit nnd the assessments for
properties nre ns low if not lower than
Inst year. Thus the Board of Educa
tion finds that its income is xvholly in
adequate, to maintain first class schools.
If help is not soon obtained the school
term will have to be cut to seven or
eight mouths.

Wholesalc salary increases recom
mended to Mayor Smith by department
heads, together xvith unpaid bills, will
increase the 1020 expense of the city
by approximately .$4,000,000.
The Mayor has in his hands nt pres
ent budget demnnds thnt include pay
increases for police, firemen und scores
of clnsses of city employes and that, if
allowed, xvill add ?2,000,000 to the

Mayor Smith, it is believed, xvill send
the requests to the present Councils
without cutting. Their successful pns
sago is freely predicted, as retiring
councilmen arc counted upon to npprove
both new job demands and pay in
creases. Bills now nwalting action by Coun
cils nggrrgate $2,000,000 and will be
augmented later by additional demands
to pay for supplies and to make up
deficits caused by the numerous trans
fers of funds from payrolls. Xew snl
ary demands aggregate $2,000,000 more.

Councils xvill receive the budget de
mnnds from Mayor Smith by October
15. Xo change In the tnx rate is con
templated at this time nnd the new ad
ministration xvill hnve to struggle along
with the handicap that is being pre
pared for it.
Having increased the city tax rate
to the unheard of figure that stands nt
present, xvith the promise thnt n reduc
tion would follow the xvnr period, the
present ndministratlon finds itself un
able to pay as It goes nnd the legacy
of debt results to the first administra
tion under the new charter.
Witli n probable income from all
sources of $47,000,000, demnnds are in
excess of the totnl by several millions.
Mayor Smith and the present Councils
will cut the cloth thn't must be xvorn
by the incoming ndmiuistration and n
shortage is the result.
BALLOT BOXES STUFFED

sued today for some of the alleged of
fenders, nccording to E. L. D. Roach,
secretary of tlie committee of seventy.
All the warants thus far issued are
iu the hands of private cetcctives who
xvill serve them probably early today.
All of the persons named in the war
rants nre said to be Vare organization
workers. Tin" charges include fraudu
lent, registration, fraudulent assistance
of voters nnd other breaches of the
election law.
Four of the warrants that may be
served today nre said to be for Vare
election officers in the Forty-sixth ward.
They are nlleged to have "stuffed" 100
ballots in the ballot-box while watch
ers 'for the Independent Republicans
xvcre at lunch. The precinct in xvhich
the election outrage xvas committed was
not specifically named by the authori
ties. Members of the district attorney's
detective force xvere on guard all -last
night ox-er papers on file in City Hall,
ready for counting. Another force
guarded the entrance to the vaults at
City PInll, in which nre kept the bnllot
boxes. Still another watched returns
in the offices of the county commis
sioners.
This guard will be continued night
nnd day until the official count lias
been completed and the results o the
election have been certified by the
court. It is expected that the count
will require nt least three xveeks, and
most of the independent leaders are ex
pecting to see many ballot-boxes
opened.

We are now ready to show the woman
of discriminating dress, the new Heath
erspun Wool Suits. Adaptable for
town atd country wear.
These suits are the most fascinating gar

the well-dressed women. The softness
of fabric and the clever effects devel

Unusual to the character of suits of this
kind, they are lined thru-out with soft'
Peau de cygne, therein adding the com
