SCHOOL BOARD MEETING.
Messrs. Moon, Boylan. C'olvllle, Dlin
lnock, Brennan and Hughes, tho full
membership of the school board, were
present last night at a special meet
ing of that august, body. Tin reading
ot tho minutes of the previous meet
ing precipitated a wordy discussion,
which lasted for some time. The
caubo which lead to tho dlhcussiun
was the reading of the motion for the
purpose of placing Thomas W, lof
tus and Ella Uoland as teachers of
the eighth grade. The motion was
recorded by Secretary Brennan as be
ing carried nnd afterwatd defeated by
Chairman Colvllle calling upon Mr.
Brennan for c roll call noon tho mo
tion. I'pon tho roll being called the
motion was lost through Mr. Dlm
ock's voting against It. Finally the
minutes wei'j changed to suit the ap
proval of the chairman and were adopt
ed. The business of the evening was
opened by Mr. James Boyd addressing
the board. He grieved at the fact that
a number of children living south of
the line of demarkation for Nos. 1 and
2 schools attended thos3 Institutions.
Several other persons were present nnd
spoke on the same sublect, but eie
hardly as vociferous as Mr. Boyd. Pro
fessor Hockenbery addressed the board
In regard to receiving pupil's from out
of the school district, and attending
the city schools. This brought on a
discussion as to the persons outside
paying for their tuition. Mr. Boylan
made a motion that all pupils living
outside the city school district bo re
quired to pay their tuitions to the
treasurer of tho board In advance.
Formerly ths pupils paid the money
to the principal of the high school,
and that gentleman turned It over to
tlv treasurer. Mr. Boylan's motion
was reconded by J. Dlmock. Mr.
Brennan moved that the graduates bo
admitted to take up such studies as
they had not already passed previous
to graduating. Mr. Hughes seconded
the motif n, which was carried. Pro
fessor Hoekenberry desired to have the
board grant him the privilege of using
his own grammar text book Instead
of the one being used at present, giv
ing his reason that the one In use Is
entirely too long. At this juncture a
tilt occurred between Professors Col
vllle and Hoekenberry. Mr. Hoeken
berry stated that the present course
which was the cause of Professor
Hoekenberry's grammar being thrown
out, has never been legally adopted.
Mr. Colvllle was emphatic In his state
ments concerning the uselessness ot
Hoekenberry's grammar. Ho said It
was not worth the paper It Is printed
on as a text book for the pupils. Mr.
Hoekenberry made a statement in de
fense of his grammar, In which hn
embodied tho fnct that he believes
himself ns good a teacher of grammar
as In the city. After a long discus
sion, a motion to nllow the professor
to use his book In the tenth grade In
stead of the book now In use, was
carried.
A NARROW ESCAPE.
Jonn Boylan, the well known meat
dealer, was driving a delivery wagon
over he stretch of road Letweeu
Eighth' avenue nnd Brooklyn street,
when tho team attached to It became
frightened at a street car. At
the same time a train whis
tled by on the steam road and this
rerved to scare the frightened unlmah:
all the more.
Pedestrians looked on with bated
breaths for fear the horses would
plunge over the embankment which
runs down some twenty-llvo feet from
the roadway. One of the passengera
it the car lumped out and grabbed
the head of the animals nnd got them
under control. To this prompt action
Mr. Boylan probably owes his life.
SPOONERS LAST NIGHT.
The Spooners played to a picked
house last night, presenting the live
act conkdy "The Pearl of Savoy."
Tho staging of tho piny was udnilr
n,blo and brought forth mnny encom
iums from the audience. Kuch of the
caste Is well adapted to his or her re
spective parts and satisfied tho large
Rudjence which was enthusiastic and
fonerous with Its applause.
This, afternoon at tho matinee,

JERMYN AND MAYFIELD.
The largest and most enthusiastic
crowd that ever assembled at Alumni
park to witness a game of base ball
were there yesterday afternoon to see
the game betwen the Archbald and
Jessup clubs for a purse of twenty-live
dollars and gate leceipts. Orillln and
Cooney were the battery for Jessup,
and their work was a mystery to tho
Archbald liofs. They rould not locate
(irlllln's ball nt all until the eighth In
ning, and then very seldom. If Grltlln
Is an amateur Pitcher, It would be a
good scheme for some of the profes
sionals to get some pointers from him.
The battery for Archbald was Swlt't
and Finnnagnn. They did nice work,
but Jessup got onto them in tho first
Inning and kept hitting them nil
through the game. But taken all
through It was one of the best games
ever played nt the park. Tho score
was n tie, live each.

Editor ot The Tribune.
Sir: I am not a disappointed local
politician, and have no desire to use
the columns of your paper for any sel
llsh motive; neither do I wish to mis
lead the people of Jenny n; but I trust
you will nllow me to make a few state
ments regarding the article that was
minted in tho Seranton Republican of
Friday, Sept. !), that the people may
learn the truth concerning the schools
from one who Is In position to know.
Kuch teacher, from tho first primary
room to the High school room, Is fol
lowing the course of study adopted by
the Jorm u school board, dated 1S06-7,
and this cours; was formulated under
the supervision of Prof. K. IJ. Bovard.
Nothing has been added to this curri
culum since I was elected principal.
There were six subjects In this course
that had never been pursued by tho
pupils previous to September. 1S97, viz.,
philosophy, geometry, English litera
ture, general history, physical geog
raphy and botany. Part ot these sub-

city or town bred man who has all his life
humped hi back over a desk, living an
unhealthy, ntdentary life and failed to take
any care of his health, could not stay on
the back of onr of the. sc. vicious brutes for
more than three jumps,
It taken a whole.rnan to conquer a vicious
animal. People lisay talk about intellectual
superiority and rrtitiement and good breed,
ing, but every man takes off his hat to
physical Mrenjt'ti and endurance. While
the man who lectli a sedentary life cannot
hope, in this resprct, to rival these sturdy
men of the plaint, they can be nound, vig
orous, healthy ma if they will. It is a
matter of care of health while one has it,
and the proper mtasures to restore it when
it is lost. Most diseases begin with some
trouble of the dliive cigans or of the
liver. Troubles of this nature starve the
body, because they pt event it from receiv
ing its proper supply of nourishment. Dr.
Tierce's Colden Medioal Discovery gives a
man an appetite like a cow-boy's and the
digestion of an ostrich. Its great work is
upon the stomach, large intestines and liver.
These arc the organs that uoutlsh a man's
body. This medicine maker, them strong,
vigorous and healthy. It fills the blood
with the nourishment that builds new,
solid and healthy flesh, muscle and nerves,
" l am now enjoying mnjnlflceut health, after
having suffered for years with chronic catarrh,"
write Ramon Sanchez, I!f., of l'enasco, Taos
Co.. New Mexico. " Jly the ute of your ' Golden
Medical Discovery' I have recovered my health,
and nm now, physically a soumt man, attending
to my husinesi and enjoying life,"
Jv
Jects wero taken last year and the re
mnlndcr have been taken this year,
Tho peoplo of Jermyn will remember
that I came before tho board of edu
cation last year and nsked them If I
should follow tho curriculum ndopted
by tho Jermyn board of education, or
tho curriculum ndopted by tho teachers
and tho county superintendent. My
Instructions wero to follow tho course
adopted by tho Jermyn board, nnd this
I nm doing. I am not trying to make
tho people think that the Jermyn
schools nra superior to what they were
during the supervision of Prof. 13. D.
Bovard. I am only trying to do my
duty and walk in tho path marked out
by my predecessor, whom I know to be
a successful teacher.
I congratulate the people of Jermyn
on tho fact that Superintendent Taylor
has nald that "tho Jermyn schools were
second to no other in the county," dur
ing the supervision of my friend and
fellow-teacher. Prof. E. D. Howard. 1
know that Superintendent Taylor Is
competent to Judge In this matter, and
I am glad that tho writer of the article
to which I nm referring has learned to
know that Superintendent Taylor's
Judgment regarding school matters Is
lo be relied on by the thinking peoplo
of Lackawanna county. My wish Is
that ho may never have reason to say
that tho school Is falling in rank dur
ing my administration.
When t took charge ot the Jermyn
schools I found pupils enough In tho
primary room for two teachers, and
was informed by the teachers that the
custom had been for years past to
move a portion of the children into tho
other looms to make room for the new
ones.
I questioned this method, but saw no
better way. I spoke to tho president
of the bonrd regarding nn assistant for
tho primary work to remove this diffi
culty. I was Informed that tho school
board was over $5,000 In debt and that
the people would object to another
teacher, and that we have no room for
another teacher. At the beginning of
this year 1 had lo follow the same old
custom; but directed the teachers to do
the same work In their respective
rooms that should have been done for
the pupils before they enter these
rooms, so ns not to crowd tho students
ns far as study was concerned, only to
place them In another room to do the
same work.
The people have not forgotten that
last spring the students who attended
tho final examination at Archbald all
passed with credit. Also that two of
our studenta passed the teachers' .ex
aminations and received certificates for
teaching. The local correspondent did
not know these facts.
"Botany, botany, botany." I want to
say that less time was used on this
subject, during school hours, than on
nny other subject during tho year's
work. Tho specimens were placed In
tho window of Dr. Davis' store, nnd
our critic could not help coming In con
tact with the work of the young peoplo
In that subject. If the writer had taken
the time to call at the principal's office,
as did the gentlemen who are gather
ing items from time to time for the
other papers, we would have mixed the
botanical dust with an equal portion ot
arithmetic, geography, history, gram
mar, algebra and philosophy, nnd would
havo taken great pains to explain the
work.
Wo do not work on the principle that
"If ignorance Is bliss, 'tis folly to be
wise." Some of our boys may argue
with mules In the mines, and some may
havo an occupation where they will
have them to contend with all through
life; but If this should be their lot, we
want them to study tho laws of nnture
and the history of civilized nations nf
the earth, that they may have some
thing to think about while at their
work that will not only prepare them
for a better position In life, but will
make them better citizens, better pa
rents for the coming generations.
Who dare say that It Is not tho duty
of all to Improve and develop, as far as
they can, the talents that God has
given them? W. L. Rogers,
Principal of Schools, Jermyn, Pa.

THE SURGEON'S KNIFE
ONCE BELIEVED TO BE THE ONLY
CURE FOR PILES AND RECTAL
DISEASES.
A Better Way Now Discovered Which
Cures Every Porm ol Piles
Without Pain or Incon
venience. Many people suffer the pain, annoy
ance and other serious results from
piles, for years, and after trying the
many lotions, salves, ointments and
mnny no-called cures without cure or
relief, give up tho hope of a final cure,
rather than submit to the Intense pain
and danger to life which a surgical op
eration involves.
Happily all this suffering Is no longer
necessary slnco the discovery of the
Pyramid Pile Cure; a remedy which Is
approved by the medical profession, as
being absolutely safe, free from any
trace of opiates, narcotic or mineral
poisons and which may be depended
upon as n sure cure (not merely re
lief) in nny form of piles, whether Itch
ing, blind, bleeding or protruding.
Some of tho hundreds of cures recently
made are little short of marvelous, as
a perusal ot the following will demon
strate. Major Dean, of Columbus, Ohio, says:
I wish to add to the number ot certifi
cates as to the benellt derived from the
Pyramid Pile Cure. I suffered from
piles for forty years and from Itching
piles for twenty years and two boxes
of the Pyramid Pile Cure has effect
ually cured mo.
Dr. J. W. Mengan, Leonardville, Kan.,
writes: I have used a box of Pyramid
Pile Curo and received more benefit and
relief than from nny other remedy I
had used in the past twenty years.
James Jamerson, Dubuque, Iowa,
says: I suffered from piles for six
years; have just used the Pyramid Pile
Cure and am a well man.
Mrs. M. C. Hlnkly, 601 Mississippi
street, Indianapolis, Ind,, says: Have
been a sufferer from the pain and an
noyance of piles for fifteen years, the
Pyramid Pile Curo and Pyramid Pills
gave me Immediate relief and in a short
time a complete cure.
The Pyramid Pile Cure may be found
at druggists at SO cents and $1.00 per
package. A book on cause and cure of
piles will be sent by mall, by address
ing the Piramld Drug Co., Marshall,
Mich.
