RAISE
SALARIES
School Board Has That Intention as Regards
' Principals.
BUT A WEEDING CUT WILL PRECEDE
Controllers Believe That Some of
Present Force of Male Principals
Are Receiving Quite Sufficient Com
pensation for Kind of Service They
Are Rendering-Teachers Must
Choose Between Teaching All the
Time or Not at All.
"Our principals will have to chose
between teaching all the time or not
teaching at nil," said a prouiinont
member of the board of coutrol yester
duy. "While it is trne," he contin
ued, "that the committee did not go
into details concerning this matter, in
its report ou Raluries for tiie routing
year, it must not be. thought that we
did not give the question serious cou
sideratiou. It is a very delicate sub
ject but one which must be met
squarely aud handled without gloves."
''I believe and it is the general opinion
of the board that tun position of prin
cipal of the more important schools is
worth more iu the way of salary than
is now attached to it. And moreover
the board iutemls that year after noxt
principals in those schools shall re
ceive a better compensation. At pres
ent it would be unfair to the school
district to give a raise iu salary, for the
reason that we would be paying many
of the principal more tliun they ura
worth. We ueliev that the present
force of male principals, with excep
tions of course, is receiving quite sulll
clent compensation for the kind of ser
vice they are rendoriug."
Ve now I am giving you the
sense of the board as I take it from
conversations wi;h members outsidu
the meeting room we do uot olj jet to
a teacher endeuvoriugto better himself
by some business or professional pur
suits, but we do o! j 'Ct to him making
that business paramount to the profes
sion we engage him for. Ltw students,
lawyers, real estate agents and the like
can not give the time to the school
room they should and which we aud
the children's pareuts domind. Con
s' quently we will have to briug about
a nweepiug reform in tho mutter.
"It is the iutuntiou of this board to
get the very test teachers that the
school diilrict c.in ufford and to pay
thoso touchers all thoy c m earn. In
securing teachers we will not confine
ourselves to this region if we find it
xpedient to go elsewere for material."
MAN'S INDIVIDUAL RELIGION.
Compared with Chrl.t's Religion by Rev.
D. . Poit.
Rev. D. E. Post, of New York city,
occupied the pulpit of the Penn Av
nue Baptist church yesterday, tho first
Sabbath in the vacation of Rov. War
ren G. Partridge, who is on the Massa
chusetts coast.
Mr. Post has n quiet, unassuming
and earnest delivery without an over
abundance of isms, and evidently
brought with him a custom narlieu
larly peculiar to New York in sauamir,
that of beiug brief. Both his moruiug
and evening sermons were short, but
sufficiently length7 to earn for the
speaker the sympathetic and approba
tive attention of bis hearers. His
evening lecture was from the text,
"Seek ye first the kingdom of Heaven."
He "aid :
"Christ is tho end of the law and
righteousness to nil thoie who believe,
and the individuality of man in his
religion is Siltishness. Thi religion of
Jesus Christ affects the heart wholly
and properly aud hilps us ta lay hold
of that which is propor for us to np
prebend; it gives m an aspiration out
ward and uway from ourselves and
lets us bring sin and the worid uudor
onr dotninitioti. The world about us
belongs to Go), yet is ours to possess.
"Tula religion enables us to go to'
eternity as we desire to go uot to
God's prison house, but with pleasant
anticipntions. aud only through Christ's
religion can we have the consciousness
that thess anticipntions will be ful
filled. It teaches us to lay hold of the
world within us, the world about us
and the world beyond ns. Is there any
other religion that enables us to do
that?
"If we need an argument it is to
'Seek ye first the kingdom of heaven;'
seek it with the same assiduity you
would seek worldly things; relinquish
all lse if necesiary."
YACHT RACING FOR SCRANTONIANS.
The Fraai Club Will Give Its Patrons a
Taste of the Popular Fad.
It almost surpasses belief to state
that Scrantoniuns are to be treated to
yacht races at their very doors. Such
is the case, nevertheless. On Saturduy
the managers of tho Press club regatta
announced that arrattgoments tud
been nude for a race between Attorney
C. Smith's fast clipper yacht Flyinj
Cloud and the Mystic, a twenty fo.'.t
center-boarder owned by Captain J
H. Greenhalgh and miuned by a crew
from the Pausaio Boat club, of New
ark. N. J.
This race will be one of the niot In
teresting events of the regatta at Lak
Ariel on Aug. I t, and in itself should
be sufficient to attract a large crird.

DEATH OF OWEN CUSiCK.
Accident Ho Suffered on July 19 Re
sulted Fatally Sketch of His
Career Successful in Business.
The busy life of O.ven Cusick, the
Lackawanna avenue hotelkeeper, un
dertaker and Hveryiuuu, wus euded in
death Saturday afternoon at 4.30
o'clock. Ou Thursday eveuint;, July
10, Mr. Cuiick w.h thrown from his
carriage on North Washington aveuu i,
near Lircli street. Mr. Cusick and
John M. Caeuy, of the St. Nicholas'
hotel, were enjoying a drive and a
wheel of their carriage was broken by
a collision with nuotber vehicle, the
horse attached to it becoming frightened
at a passing cHr and running into
thorn.
Mr, Cusiok cluug to the reins, en
deavoring to prevent bis own horse
from running away, but the animal
dashed madly ahead, impelled by the
rattliug of the broken carriage, Mr,
Cusick was thrown to the sidewalk and
his head struck the edge of the curbing,
causing concession nnd laceration of
the brain. He did not regain con
sciousness until three hours afterward
at his borne.
Dr. Dolan was culled nnd after a
casual examination was iucliuud to the
opinion that Mr. Caslck would recover.
But when he made a thorongb elimi
nation the nsxt day, he bud serious
doubts, but entortnlued hopes of his
patient's recovery.
At various times Dr. D)lan called
Dr. N. Y. Lvet in consultation, and
every remedy known to medical
science was employed to save Mr,
Cusick's life, which bad become ap
parent to the physicians was slowly
ebbing away.
Mr. Cusick was born in Ireland
forty-six years ao. When he w
uine months old his parents left him iu
the care of bis grandmother aud sailed
for this country, and when be ws six
years old sho purchased his passage
and sent I'lm to this countrv alone. He
whs a bright child and made a success
ful voyage without any trouble. At
the age of 10 bo purchased a team
and engaged iu the hauling business,
shortly afterward becoming proprietor
of a hotel in Bellevne.
He was married twenty years ngo to
Miss Mary Spellinan, of Archbald. A
fumily of twelve children were born to

children are now left, the oldest 18
years old and the youngest two months.
They are: Mary C, Ttssi L., John,
Patrick. Auuie Ehzibetu, Eugene, Am
brose, Emily, Bartley and Morris.
Mr. Cnsick was known throughout
Lackawanna and Luzirne counties as a
successful businessman nnd a charit
able friend to thos iu distress.
His generosity was sincere and se
crt from the public. Apart from his
family bis death will njt b deplored
greater tuau ammif the poor families
of this valley. Still he aouumulatsd a
fortune. Hi couducted the hotel at
4120 Lsckawauna avenue for the past
stveuteen years, and did a flourishing
business. Besides, he was the proprie
tor of the extensive livery, and nnder
takinir establishment at 217, 219. 221
and 233 Washington nvenne.
The lots on which the livery stands
are among the most desirable real es
tate locations in Scranton. Mr. Cusick
refuted an offsr ot $45,000 for them uot
long before his death. Hd also owned
other valuible property,
In the Democratic county convention
held in liSS Mr. Cusick was nouiiuated

test followed the election uuJ Mr. Cu
sick's opponent obtained the ollico.

THINK THEY WERE CHLOROFORMED.
One Hundred and Thirty Dollars Taken

John Swartz, a Dslsware, Lacka

7.30 o'clock Saturday morning, just
three hours too late for work. His
wife also overslept herself and was
with some difficulty awakened. Both
felt a queer feeling like drowsiness
or stupor and imagining that some
thing was wrong began an investiga
tion of tbe premises.
Tbe first discovery they made was
that $120 belonging to tbe Switchmen's
Mutual Aid ussociutiou, of which Mr,
Swartz is treasurer, was missing. It
was kept under the pillow in a bag.
Further Investigation pioved unmis
takably that some Intruder had been in
the house during the night and it is
thought that Mr. and Mrs. Swartz
were chloroformed by tbe thief.
