J. G. Wcstcott Will Now Co to Jail on
Charge of Enticing Girl.

few days ago on the charge of enticing
girls, and who was after released on
bail is now In the county jail.
Ills bail was $1,000 and John Solomon,

and there is nothing to keep him In this
part of the country..
In company With an officer the pris
oner went out to search for bondsmen,
but without success, and he was later
taken to the county Jail.
YESTERDAY'S STORM.
The Street, Flooded by M ater Pour
iiitf (Yum Ihe. Hillside.
Yesterday's storm produced quite a
change In the appearance of the streets,
the torrents completely covering the
movement In some places with dirt and
r, ravel to the depth of several Inches.
The water came pouring down from
the hillsides, bringing with It dirt and
even large stones. The flood was so
great that the water overflowed the
cutch basins and Mowed over the pave
from curb to curb. Street cars were
derailed in several instances by the
iinea and other refuse on the track.
Preparing for Kelt Season.
The hustling managers of the opera
house are having their building over
hauled' ready for next season. At
present George Bradley, of New York
city, an expert Brenic artist is at work
retouching the old scenes and painting
new ones, so that the opera house will
be able o offer a greater variety of
scenery next year. Other changes
which will add to the comfort of the
public will be made.
For Sunday Telephone.
There will probably be a change In
the hours of the telephone company
shortly as most of the business men of
the city have signed the petition circu
lated by Dr. Bailey, asking for Sunday
telephooie.The petition asks for ser
vice all day Sunday, Instead of but two
hours as Is now the case.

AKCIiHALD.
At a regular meeting of the school
board was held Monday evening. All
the members were present when Presi
dent Barrett called the meeting to or
der. A bill of lira. Kelly and Van
Doren amounting to $107.40 for vaccin
ating school children was ordered paid
as well as other bills of trifling amount.
A representative of the publishers of
Worcester's dictionary asked the board
to Introduce an abridged edition of
that work and the board decided to buy
two dozen copies for the use of the
various schools. President Barrett,
who was asked to collect the deeds of
the school lots reported that he had
not found them all, but had ascertained
thnt they pere properly recorded. At
tention was then called to the audi
tors' report which was published last
week and which some of the directors
objected to because of alleged errors.
The board was considerably agitated
over It and appointed a committee to
wait on the council and request It to
stop payment of the auditor's bills
until the errors had been corrected. Af
ter appointing this committee the meet
ing adjourned. Since the meeting the
auditors have made the changes that
the board desired. These changes do
not alter ths accounts, but simply
separate the orders Issued during the
fiscal year ending In June. 1X95, but not
paid until 1SHC. from those issued and
paid during the year ending June 1.
1S. According to the auditors' state
ment as first published the school di
reclors "amciiig others, are so charged
and they desired to have the orders so
separated that those for 18s5 would
stand apart from those of 18i)6. This
appeared reasonable to the auditors
and the separation was made.
The borough council also met on Mon
day evening, all members except Mr.
McGlynn having been present. Bills
amounting to $n00 were oidered paid,
the principal items being the street
commissioner's time which amounted
to $471. The auditors' bills were re
considered and It was decided not to
issue orders until their trouble with the
school board Is settled. Manager
White, of the Father Mathew Opera
House called attention to the new
ordlnunce taxing places of amusement
and on motion of Mr. Wagner the
opera house was exonerated from the
payment of license. After deciding
to print the new borough ordinances
In pamphlet form and also to place
fire hydrants on Hill street, the meet
ing adjourned.
Mrs. Mauley, of Providence, called
on friends here yesterday.
The Fouith of July celebration was
a success and the picnic of St. Thomas'
congregation was also. The rain In
terfered somewhat with the picnic but
notwithstanding this there was an en
joyable t'me.
Mr. and Mrs. Richard Clarkson, of
Main street, are attending the Christian
Endeavor convention at Washington.
The Presbyterian Congregation will
hold a festival on the church lawn this
evening. Ice cream and other delica
cies will be served. It is expected
that the festival will be well attended.
Ground has been broken for the
new kindergarten bul!Jlng on the
ground behind and to the right of the
Presbyterian church. A large force of
men have been digging there for the
past two days.
A surprise party was tendered to
Joseph Coollcan last evening at his
home on Main street, the occasion
being his birthday. About forty of his
friends called on him early in the even
ing and had a delightful time. Mis.
Coollcan and her daughter, Mrs. John
O'Rourke, royally entertained their
guests and left nothing undone that
tended to the pleasure of the assemb
lage. Refreshments were served, vo
cal and Instrumental selections were
rendered and excellent dance music
was furnished. The occasion was one
long to be remembered with pleasure
by those In attendance.

A meeting has been called for Monday

building for the purpose of raising

ferers. AMERICAN VICE-PRESIDENTS.
An IlUFonnded Prejudice Against an
Office Which Has Been Held by
Statesmen.
From the New York Sun.
The routine duties of the office of
Vice-President are unimportant and the
Influence of a Vice-President in the ad
ministration of which he is a member is
insignlticent. He has less to do with the
course of legislation than any of the
members of the senate over which he
legally presides. In executive matters
and in consideration of appointments a
President consults with his cabinet
never with the Vice-President. The
President's private secretary, indeed,
outranks usually In point of influence
and authority the Vice-President, and
the latter personage has come to be re
garded as an amiable flgurhead whose
only real Importance arises from the
possibility of the Presidential office be
coming vacant.
Yet some of the most Important men
In American history, especially In the
early days of the republic, have held the
office of Vice-President, and have
brought to the discharge of Its duties
qualities of the very first importance.
The first Vice-President of the United
States, John Adams, was afterward
President, and certainly no New Eng
land man was more prominent than Mr.
Adams In support of the Revolution. A
signer of the Declaration of Indepen
dence, he was accredited as Minister to
France In 1777 and as Minister to Eng
land In 1785, two of the most Important
offices which an American at that time
could flit, and outranked only by the
office held by George Washington, Mr.
Adams's predecessor as President, who
was commander-in-chief of the Ameri
can arrry. The second Vice-President
of the United States was the Illustrious
Democratic statesman, Thomas Jeffer
son, whose participation In the events
leading up to the Revolution was cer
tainly more active and important than
that of any of the members of the sen
ate over which he presided. George
Clinton who enjoyed the remarkable
distinction of being governor of New
York for eighteen years consecutively
(and the first Governor of New York,
too), was the fourth Vice-President of
the United States, and Daniel P. Tomp
kins, who was Governor of New York
for ten years, was the sixth.
It has been said often by critics of
American political hlstoiy that the
most distinguished statesmen, Henry
Clay, Daniel Webster, and others of
lil-c prominence, have by some political
fatality fallen short of the presidency,
and the name of John C. Calhoun, of
South Carolina, has generally been In
cluded In the list. But Mr. Calhoun did
not fall short of the vice-presidency,
for he succeeded in office Governor
Tompkins, of New York, and was for
eight years the vice-president, having
as his distinguished sucecssor Martin
Van Buren. of New York. Mr. Van
Buren was certainly the most promin
ent Democratic statesman In the period
In which he lived, and after serving as
vice-president he was elected president
in Wt, defeating William H. Harrison,
grandfather oMr. Cleveland's predec
essor. A careful and satisfactory per
formance of the duties of the vice-president
was, in the case of Mr. Van Buren,
no bar to his subsequent promotion to
the presidency, and later Millard Fill
more, elected vice-president In 1848, be
came president, and In the presidential
contest of 1856. though running on an

office.
MAJOR CARSON'S SCOOP.
How lie Got a Complete Story of the
Urant8artori Wedding.
From the Washington Post.
"The mortage fo the vice president's
daughter reminds me of the occasion
when Nellie Grant was married to Mr.
Sartorls," said Dr. Edward Bedloe, at
Chamberlin's. "The president decided
to keep newspapr men from witnessing
the ceremony. This was from no chur
lishness on the part of General Grant,
but because he recognized the impracti
cability of letting all the reporters in,
and didn't wish to show favortism by
admitting a few. There were a few of
the profession who were crazy to get a
good story of the nuptials, and of the
eager ones none more intent than John
Russell Young, who wanted It for the
New York Herald.
"George Butler, whose erratic career
Is known of all men, having heard
Young give expression to this desire,
volunteered to get him an Invitation
to the ceremony. By chance or design
Butler made a visit to Senator John
P. Jones, of Nevada, at a time when
the latter was not at home. 'I'll Just
write him a little note, said Butler to
the servant, and sat down and began
busying himself with an Imaginary let
ter to the senator. On a table near
hiin he saw the very article that the
newspaper man coveted, and In a sec
ond the card of Invitation to the Grant
Sartoris weddlug was In his pocket.
In a few hours more John Russell
Young had It. Then a council of war
was held and it was decided to make
Major Carson' the further agent In the
conspiracy, and cn him devolved the
risk and responsibility of carrying out
the scheme to the bitter end.
"The Important night came, and be
hold, the major In faultless attire, drove
up to the White house In the grandest
rig that Allison Nallor could furnish.
If the worst came anil his right of be
ing there was questioned he had that
piece of paste-board to show. He put
his hand on it many a time that even
ing, but never had to produce It. A
score of the best known men In America
shook his hand, but none of them
seemed to think It strange that he was
there.
"Outside a half dozen friends waited
and watched for him, speculating In
the Interim on the chances of his expul
sion. Finally, he came out to relieve
their suspense, but wanted to go back
Immediately. But John Russell Young
said: 'Nay, nay, major! you'll 'VrHe
this story Immediately while we have
you in our possesison. If you re-enter
there's no telling what may happen.
Write it this minute while the inspira
tion Is on your soul.'
"And the major wrote a rattling good
account of the wedding and everybody
connected with the scoop was happy."
