SCHOOL BOARD MEET.
Important talwn-Tkt Taxes Will Be
Colleeta4 tor Two Per Cee.
" The meeting ot the school board Mon
day evening was very tanportantnd
much business was transacted. TOose
present were Messrs. Norton. CoMlns.
Coogan. Boylan. (MoMullen and Alex
ander. The minutes ot last meeting
were read and accepted. Several bills
were presented and ordered paid.
Miss Mary Myers. Ulllan Passmore.
Nellie Courtrlght. Ella A. Boland. Ella
Malone. Louise Davis and OrvHle Ed
grtt. of Seeleyvllle. applied for posi
tions as teachers. They were placed
on file. The resignation of iMlss Bridget
Gavin was accepted.
A communication from the American
Book company offerlag to replace all
books poorly bound was read. Those
whioh need binding were ordered by
the board to be repaired at once.
Perhaps the most Important part or
the meeting was the opening of 4he
bids of those persons who wished to col
lect the school tax duplicates. It was
greed before opening the bids that un
less they met the full requirements of
the agreement they should be rejected.
. The following bids were opened:
Thomas Scott. S per cent.; J. W. Jones,
S per cent.: Andrew Mitchell. Jr., 4H per
cent.: and William Bates. 2 per cent.
As his bid was accompanied by the
names of bondsmen, he was awarded
the collection of the school tax.
This Is a new departure of the school
board, and has been looked forward to
with great Interest.
THE COMPANY MUST OBEY.
Aad Move Their Car Tracks oa Belmont
and Other Streets.
' The paving of Belmont street Is a sub
ject upon which the residents of that
part of the city are feeling sore. The
ordinance has passed both councils and
the contract has been formally award
ed, yet nothing has been done toward
commencing the work. The reason for
this Is Inaction of the Traction com
pany. Before anything can be done the
tracks must be changed from the side
of the street to the center. The com
pany agreed to this, but as yet have
done nothing. The season Is getting
late, and the necessity of commencing
la seen and many complaints have been
made to both councils.
They have done little toward hurry
ing up the work, notwithstanding the
appeals of the people. At last meeting,
however, they woke up and an ordin
ance compelling the Traction company
to move their tracks was Introduced.
The time given the company to begin
the work was not decided upon. City
Solicitor Stuart is out of the city at
present, and it was thought best to
await his return. The councilman
mean business. They are tired of the
course pursued by the Traction com
pany, and mean to make them hurry up
the work.
Legal assistance will be lent the city
(solicitor if needed.
BICYCLISTS RETURN.
A Trip Enjoyed by Three Carboodale
Cyclists.
On last Friday O. M. Patterson, W.
R. Moon and John Matey, of Forest
City, started on a bicycle trip In which
they meant to ride to Harrlsburg. and
(from there return to this city by rail.
A change was made In their route,
and. Instead to taking In Harrlsburg,
they made a circuit, passing through
Wllllamsport, and reaching this city
late Monday evening.
The trip was more pleasant In that
It was nearly devoid of accidents. At
Taylorvllle, however. Matey was run
into by a green cyllst and his front
wheel smashed. This was fixed at
Wllkes-Barre.
They passed through Nantlcoke,
Shickshlnny and down the toe-path to
Berwick. From thence they went to
BloomAburg, Danville and Williams
port. They left Wllllamsport at 11.30
Sunday morning, when they started on
their return, coming by way of Can
ton, Towanda and Tunkhannock.
They reported excellent roads, which
readily , may be seen by the distance
covered. In the four days they were
gone they went nearly 336 miles, which
gave them an average of about 95 miles
per day.

Isaac Carter, farmer and stock dealer
at West Auburn, "and well-known
throughout the surrounding region, was
burled Sunday. His life experience was
a remarkaible one. For eight years he
was Insane and kept himself In con
finement. He finally took to reading
the Bible, though he had previously
been a very worldly man, and at last
announced that the Lord had healed
him of his affliction. He Immediately
took up his business again and not
only rationally conducted it, but lived
a consistent Christian life the remain
der of his days. His friends, however,
nould detect slight eccentricities In him
that were doubtless due to his disease.
His funeral was very largely attended.
While visiting Forkston yesterday. S.
Judson Stark secured a large petrified
oyster, remarkably complete, both as
to shell and meat. It was found on
top of Forkston Mountain, 2,250 feet
above tide water, by J. A. Dorr, who
claims there Is a large bed of them
there, some of them as large as a man's
hat. The specimen displayed Is a, fine
one ,and conclusively proves that all
this mountainous region was once the
ocean bed, probably long before Adam
nd Eve rusticated In the Oarden of
Eden.
N. W. Lenox and family and Mr. and
Mrs. Alvah Melhulsh have gone to
Bradford county to attend a family
gathering.
Some men, representing large capital,
it Is said, have been prospecting around
Forkston township of late for some
mineral, the nature of which they re
fuse to disclose. They Intimate that
they have been successful In finding
traces of what they are after, and will
begin sinking a test hole soon near
Lovelton. As that country has been
pretty thorounhly probed for coal, oil
and gas,' with the result of finding
neither In paying quantities, tnere Is
a good deal of speculation as to the
nature of their desired substance. Gos
sip has It that it Is something con
nected with the making of carbon
points for electric lighting, while some
believe It to be oxide of manganese.
Further developments are expected
soon.

ttagnetism as a CnratiTe in
Chronic Diseases.
It Is no longer a doubt, but a demon
strated fact, that the power of magnetU-.n
and electricity as used in the cure of
chronle diseases ts the greatest aux
iliary to medicine that is known to science
at the present day, and some of the moct
wonderful cuies have been performed Ly
the proper use of the above mentioned
powers. Dr. F. B. Smith and staff have
employed those powers in the cure of
chronic diseases for many years with the
most remarkable good results, as the fol
lowing case will show: Mrs. Groate. a
lady about SO years old, came to Dr. Smith
and staff. She was suffering with strict
ure of the throat for about eight years.
For over six years she had not swallowed
a mouthful of solid food. She had -been
compelled to live on tea. coffee, milk and
the thlnest kind of soups. She had been
doctoring ror years, but found no relief.
She was told by several doctlrs that there
was no cure, that all she could hope for
was death, which would come by degress,
or. In other words, that the passage to her
stomach would close and she would starve
to death. Living In utter despair a friend
called her attention to an advertisement
In the paper of the cures made by Dr.
Smith and staff, and contrary to the ad
vice of the family physician she com
menced taking magnetic treatments. She
was told that she had simply thrown her
money away, that no doctor could cure
her, but despite of all those protestations
she Is today a living testimonial to the
healing virtues of magnetism, for she was
absolutely and permanently cured of her
affliction by Dr. Smith and staff. If you
are suffering with any complaint call on
those doctirs at 60s Linden street, opposite
the court house, and be cured. Consulta
