Whit ts the matter with the Railroad
Your.tf Men's Christian association
team? A game with Hotboken or El
mira or 'Blng4raintui would be Interest
ing and would tend to cement the
strong bond of friendship now existing
between these 'branches.
A very commendable enterprise Is the
excursion of the Railroad Young Men's
Christian association and the Delaware,
Lackawanna and Western Mutual Aid
association to Syracuse, Pleasant Beach
and Maple Bay on Saturday, August 17.
If Scranton peopv? knew thoroughly
the worthiness of these two Institutions
It would tax the Delaware, Lackawan
na and Western to its utmost capacity
to furnish cars for the crowds who
would go. Every person who rides out
of Scranton on the cars ought to feel
a great sense of security In the fact
that the crews of the (Delaware, Lacka
wanna and Western trains are made up
of so many sober, faithful Christian
men. This Is a state of things largely
brought about by the Railroad Young
' Men's Christian association and for
this reason and for the reason that they
are doing uch a magnificent work
among all classes of railroad men, and
railroad men take such an Interest In
the association aa to crowd their little
quarters at the rate of over 600 a day.
The Delaware, Lackawanna and West
ern Mutual Aid for Its humane Idea In
it organisation, deserves as great sup
port. Not a day passes but we hear of
some brave man being killed on the
rail or crippled for IVfe. and we feel
aorry for the helpless widow and father
leas children. It Is Just here where the
man work of the Mutual Aid comes In
At the death of a member (there are
over 1,300) a check of $1,000 Is without
grand work of the Mutual Aid comes In.
the family of the deceased. There la
also a sum given to those who are orln-
pled Jn any way. For these reasons, if
iur no omer, it is saxe to bespeak a
hearty support for this excursion.

EVERY DAY SOMETHING NEW.
The Bridges as t'suul Furnish Their Dally
Quota of Difficulties.
City Controller Wldmeyer Is doing
some close nguring these days to make
the ends meet in the bridge appropria
tions.
When the contract for the approaches
to Roaring Brook bridge were submit
ted to him he hesitated in giving it his
approval for the reason that he was
not wholly satisfied that tnere was
money enough left for the completion
of the approaches to the bridges and he
did not like to take upon himself the
responsibility of deciding which of the
bridges must wait until money can be
secured.
It Is possible that councils will be
asked to decide the momentous ques
tion. If there Is a shortage one of the
other of the approaches will have to
suffer.
Another question which the controller
has been called upon to decide Is the
city's liability for the cost of inspecting
the Iron for the Linden Street bridge.
A bill of $500 for this work was received
f rom the American Engineering and In
specting association of Albany, N. Y.,
and the controller immediately for
warded It to the Edge Moor Bridge com
pany with a notification that they and
not the city are responsible for this ex
pense.
The controller based his decision on
a clause in the specifications which
states that the city engineer shall em
ploy the Inspector and his services shall
be paid for 'by the company.
However, nothing is said about this
arrangement In the ordinance and there
Is a doubt that the company can be
held responsible.
The fact that the city received the bill
tends to show the bridge company does
not intend to shoulder the expense.
CLEVELAND'S BIG SHOW.
It Will Be Given at Frothlngham Friday
Afternoon and F.vening.
W. S. Cleveland's great aggregation
of minstrelsy combined with a band of
Bedouin Arabs, and a Japanese troupe,
will appear at the Frothlngham Friday
afternoon and evening. This Is what
the Dallas News says of the entertain,
ment:
"That high class minstrelsy occupies
a distinct place In the field of amuse.
merits and that it Is not a peculiar
fancy of a bygone generation is un
questionable. Vhls opinion seemed fully
warranted by the large and enthuslas
tic audiences that gathered at the opera
house yesterday afternoon and fright to
laugh and grow merry over the witty
sayings and ludicrous specialties and
sweet singing of W. H. Cleveland's tal
ented minstrel organization.
"The witticisms ot John H. Black
ford, J. Marcus Doyle, George Tlchner.
Daniel Palmer, Clarence Powell and
Marlon and Pearl were deservedly ap
plauded. The troupe of Arabs gave an
exhibition of strength, tumbling, etc..
superior to any exhibition of the char
auter ever seen here. And those won
derrul Japanese! They are the greatest
lot of gymnasts, Jugglers, etc., that
ever left the Empire."

of the Trouble.
Lackawanna township's school board
Is a body of surprises and at evety
twist or turn does something to sot the
tongue of gossip wagging. Its latest
coup do ma I ii occurred at a meeting
Monday evening", at which the mala
order ot business was the hiring of
teachers and Janitors for the ensuing
term. It Is needless to bring the reader
over a recounting of the stormy dead
locked meetings of the beginning of
June, when several sessions were as
sembled and adjourned In a futile at
tempt at electing a secretary and treas
urer. Finally, when the time had arrived
where disruption appeared to be immi
nent, a sudden sense of duty returned
to the Bchool guardians and an organi
sation was effected by a compromise.
The race for oillce left scars that did
not heal and the next place the soreness
between the factions was noticed was
at subsequent meetings that dead
locked oil the question or letting con
tracts for supplies and furnishings.
The board met In No. 3 school build
ing. Minooka. Monday afternoon at 3
o'clock to appoint tl)e teachers for the
ensuing year. There were no vacancies
to be filled and all of last year s teach
ers, except Professor I. H. Davy, prin
cipal of the Mooslu school, were re
appointed. He was dropped, and Pro
fessor Theron G. Osborne was trans
ferred from the Pyne school to suc
ceed him. Professor Osborne's posi
tion at the Pyne was left vacant for
the time being.
Names of Teachers.
The teachers appointed are as fol
lows: 'Minooka. Thomas iP. Joyce,
urlnclrtal: Cella Nallen. Mary Gibbons,
Annie Connell, Mary Langan, and Mary
Agen, assistants. 'Mooslc. Theron G. Os
borne, principal: Mrs. Frances h;ins,
Amelia Porter, Mary Ann Connolly,
Suruh MoNally, and Lizzie McMurtrle,
assistants. Greenwood, Thomas J.
Cone, principal: Jennie Loughney and
Annie Fitzhenry. assistants; o. 4,
Katie Jeffers. Pyne, , princi
pal; Mamie Relnhardt, assistant. Con
tinental. Kate Burke, principal; J.
seph Mulderig, assistant. Sloan, Nettle
Weir.
There Is not any particular reason
why Profssor Davey was dropped, but
the members got wrangling among
themsrlves about the matter and It
took from 3 o'clock In the afternoon
until almost 9 o'clock at night before
they could agree on dropping him. The
FeSRton was a star chamber one.
The reason assigned for the chance
of principals In the Alooslc school !s
that Professor 'Davey was not anxious
tor a reappointment and did not so
licit It. The term will be opened In the
new school and the Stark's Patch and
Dug Hill schools will be abandoned.
At present there Is no wild untamed
rush for the princlpalshlp at the Pyne
school and it Is not known If the board
has any teacher ln,view.
History of the Trouble on the Hoard.
The board consists of four Republi
cans. Thomas 'R. Loverlng, G. T. Davis,
John MoCrindle and William Morgan;
and two Democrats, Thomas King and
Patrick Wiggins. Prior to last May the
board was evenly divided as to party,
Robert Burleigh held 'MCCrtndle's seat,
and Philip Roach held Lovering's seat.
Burleigh lived in Moosic and had two
years more to serve. But In May he
moved with his family to Dunmore, and
his removal from the township caused
a vacancy on the school board. That
left the body In control of the Dem
ocrats. At the same meeting that Burleigh's
resignation was read and accepted, the
board appointed John iMcCrlndle, a (Re
publican, of Mooslc, to fill the vacancy
until the next spring election.
fc.x-Mayor .Motthew VV. Lot tu s, of
Moosic, sought the appointment, but
was turned down, two of the Dem
ocrats, Roche and Higglns, voting with
the two (Republicans for IMcCrlndle.
The secret of the matter has not got
out until now. King, the Democrat
who urged his compatriots to hold stern
and rule while they had the reins, was
angered because his advice was not
heeded, and he determined to have re.
venge when the proper time came.
MoCrindle promised to support Hlg-
gins for secretary and Morgan prom
ised to vote for Hlgglns for secretary
providing Higglns would vote for him
for treasurer. LVIcCrinille promised Mor
gan his support for treasurer, and that
constituted a triumvirate. They be
lieved that It would be not a very dim
cult task to secure another member of
the board to vote with them, especially
as nobody else appeared to be anxious
for the offices. .
They did not bargain on ambition's
taking root In the breast of Davis,
Loverlng or King. Loverlng was elect
ed as (Roche's successor and took his
seat on the first iMonday of June. That
was the date on which they assembled
for reorganization.
Tho lleainning of tho Deadlock.
Meanwhile Loverlng had been think
ing over the advisability of entering the
race for treasurer. His own vote he
was sure of; he went to Davis and Da
vis promised him he would support
him; he went to King, and here was the
chance King was long waltlnrr for; here
was, at last, his revenge; King prom
ised him, and then Loverlng rested on
his oars. 'He soliloquized that he would
go Into the meeting with the same fight
ing chance that Morgan had, and at
last the day t olled around.
The vote for treasurer was taken and
was a tie. Everything known to par
liamentary science was adopted by
each side to cntch the other unawares,
but of no avail. At length, after sev
eral meetings, and when the courts were
about to be appealed to, to appoint a
board that could organize, they com
promised nnd elected MoCrindle treas
urer and Morgan secretary.
