Miss Olllc Woolbaugh Has Only Prove Her Identity and It Is tiers. to Knowledge of the present where abouts of Mrs. Elizabeth Woolbaugh persons. The one, ner uncie, ueorge Woolbaugh, of Lafayette street, and the other. Pension Agent Feeny, of Washington, D. C. Many' years ago James Woolbaugh, a brother of George Woolbaugh, and now deceased, lived at Smlthfleld, about nine miles from Stroudsburg. Ho was a veteran, having lost u. leg in the civil conflict of 1861, und at the close of the war secured both a pension and position from the government. His pension was only $2 per month and his work was to carry the mails from Stroudsburg to tho Marshall's Creek postodlce. He was also u farmer on a small scalo and employed Thomus Fenner, a good working and also looking young fellow, to work for him. The family comprised Mr. nnd Mrs. "Woolbaugh, three daughters and one son. Mr.Wool l'augh was absent during much of the day, he making two trips of nine miles each twice a day as a mnllcarrier. On Aug. SO, 1SS3, his wife left home ostensibly to visit her mother, who lived about half a, mile distant from them. She never returned and had not been definitely heard of since. Neither has the farm hand. Moreover, neither has anything been learned as to what became of Elllo, the baby of the fam ily, taken by the mother when she left home. For nearly two years Mr. Woolbaugh bunted for his recreant wife and his child without success. Ho then took unto himself another wife, who, with her daughter, Is now living nt Anna comle, near Stroudsburg. He had been married but a yenr when he died. ' Ills pension, however, went on. The two older dnughters and the one son got their portion of It each month, and Ellle's collected nt the pension depart ment for her. Frank, the son, recent ly graduated from the Harford Sol diers' Orphan school, having reached sixteen years, and Is residing with his uncle, George, on Lafayette street. The pension accumulation ha now leached a substantial amount, and that Is why Miss Eflle Is requested to make herself known. Also that is why Agent Feeny wants to know about her, for If she never turns up the money re verts to the government. Her two eld er elsters nre married and reside with their fnmllles at Spraguevllle, Pa. ROSENFELD.LEVV NUPTIALS. Ceremony Performed by Rov. IJr. Kline, Chlel Itnlilii ol Ainrricn. Nathan D.

Robinson's Sons' Bock Beer on tap Thursday, ' Danville, wero yesterday registered EFFECT OF DECISION ON SCHOOL BONDS Will Make nn Issue ol Filly Thousand Dollars Illegal. AN APPEAL IS DEINQ PREPARED If Supreme Court Woeldei to fix n Hpoclnl Dnto lor Hearing It tho Local Court War Not Grnnt Format Writ of Ouster Tending the Docli lon oi the Higher Court'-Legallty ol Dorouch Honrds Will I'robnblr Soon Uo Questioned. David J. Itccdy, attorney for the board of control, Is already at work on the papers for nn appeal to tho Supreme court from the decision of Judce It. W. Archbald with reference to tho quo warranto proceedings ngnlnst the board of twenty-one direc tors. Mr, Ilcedy doea not say that the Supreme court will refuse to sus tain Judge Archbald, he contents him self by saying that they will have tho highest court In tho Btate pass upon the matter that tho exact legal status of tho act under consideration may be finally determined. It Is not Improbable that the Supremo court may consent to fix a Bpeclal date for hearing arguments on the appeal In view of It importance. If a spe cial date is not secured tho caBe will have to wait until February, 1S9D. the Hint- when the general run of Lack awanna county cases will be heard by the state's highest tribunal. There Is n well defined opinion that tho local court will not grant a. writ of mister against the hoard of twenty-one If the Supremo court decides to hear the case In the very near future. If, however, argument will not be heard until a year hence the court may bo constrained to allow the wilt of ouster upon proper application being made for It. One of the argumentfl presented by Ex-Judge II. A. Knapp when the quo warranto proceedings wero under con sideration was that to set aside the act of 1874 nt this time would work great hardship and Injustice to per sons who had purchased bonds of the Scranton school district because the declaring Illegal of tho net of 1874 might make It necessary to go back to the act which provided four school districts for the territory now embraced In the city of Scranton which would wipe the Scranton school district out of existence entirely. EX-JUDOK KNAPP'S FORESIGHT. It Is probable that ex-Judge Knapp's foresight saved the city of Scranton from finding itself In Just such a pre dicament nt this time. There is a general state law making each city a school district, but when the act In corporating tho city of Scranton was passed by the legislature It contained a provision exempting It from the pro visions of this net und allowing the school boards of Scranton, Hyde Park borough, Providence borough nnd Prov idence township to continue their sep arate existence. This arrangement continued until the act of 1874 wns passed, the one which Judge Archbald on Monday de clared unconstitutional so far as It pertains to school districts. Then the four districts were merged Into' one without more ado nnd the Scranton school district was created., and has continued to manage the school affairs of the city up to this time. After ex-Judge Knapp became solic itor of the board he saw the weakness of the act under which the district wns operating and fearing that some such decision as that of Monday would throw tho school affairs of the city into chaos drafted a bill which h.iH passed by the legislature of 18SD and approved by Governor James A, Reav er, lepeallng the act of 1S07 and Its sup plement of 1876 so far ns It related to providing four school districts for the city. That put Scranton in the list of cities coming dnder the provisions of the general act directing that each city shall constitute one school district. The decision of Judge Archbald If sustained by the Supreme court will establish that from 1874, when the Scranton school district was formed, until 1SS9, when ex-Judge Knapp's re pealing act was passed, hnd no legal school body. The four separate boards had passed out of existence and a board directly In conflict with the city's charter was acting. The actions of the "lu "ii " i'im ui uiieeu years win nave no legal standing it the Supreme court says that Judge Archbald'fi decision Is good law. BONDS WERE ISSUED. During that period $55,000 of school bonds were Issued, which have not as yet been redeemed. It is not likely that the school district vould try to avoid tho payment of them on this technicality even If the courts would permit It to do so. The school district had tho benefit of the money realized from tho sale of the bonds and the courts would undoubtedly find some wny of protecting the bond holders. Ex-City Solicitor I. II. Burns, who wns attorney for the petitioners in the quo warranto proceedings, said yes terday that there Is troublo ahead for nearly all the borough school boards hereabouts. Most of them are con stituted as Is tho present bonrd of this city by electing directors from each wurd instead of six from the borough WHV nre we so low on ORANGES No lower than on other lines.

It Is agreed by nlmost every person Interested In the public schools of Scranton that some kind of legisla tion Is necessary that will pernllt the schools of cities to be managed In a different manner than are those of n sparsely settled townships but the evil of It Is that the legislature cannot be looked to for relief. Men who have given time nnd, abundant study to this pioblem declare that It Is not possible to frame any kind of relief legislation that will successfully run the gauntlet of the Supreme court. Tho constitu tion Is tho snag against which relief legislation will run and until the con stitution Is altered legislation much needed by cities of tho third clnss and by the school districts of the state generally cannot be obtained. VIOLENCE CAUSED DEATH. That Is What tlio Autopsy In Uodlz Cnsn Demonstrated. An autopsy performed by Coroner Lo'ngstreet on the body of Andrew' Ro dlz has revealed that his death may have been due to Injuries Inflicted by some person or persons unknown. As related In The Tribune, Rodlz died In the Lackawanna hospital Sunday night, one hour after being admitted there from the county jail. On Saturday he had been committed to the latter In stitution for drunkenness. The pot-mortem examination of the body showed that Rodlz died from peri tonitis. While that was the immediate cause of death, the primary cause was a blow upon the abdomen. This rup tured the capillary blood vessels of the muscular structure. Peritonitis and then death resulted. A bruise beneath the skin cave moie outward evidence of violence. At the inquest last evening In Coro ner Longstreet's olllce testimony was given by Dr. W. D. Donne, jail physic ian, concerning Rodlz's condition while under treatment at the jail. The coro ner explained the results of the au topsy. An adjournment was made to permit the procuring of evidence con cerning Rodlz's movements previous to his arrest. lie was dead drunk when arrested. The police do not seem to be In any way responsible for his death. The injury to Uodiz may have been caused by a kick, a blow or a fall. It 1 wns to determine, If possible, the ex- nct cause of the Injury that the in- quest wns adjourned. The jurors are: Drs. Newbury and Webb, of the hos pital; Dr. Donne, M. J. O'Toole, J. D.
