Ho made a strong plea for nn offering for tho Volunteeis. Lieutenant Colonel Lindsay plased "Men of Harlech" on the ten net, with .m organ accompaniment, also by him self a most remarkable feat. Captain Forrest asked for subscriptions to the "rent league" to pay the JG0 per month for the rent of the new quarters on Spruce stieet. Colonel Lindsay then told a pathetic little Incident of her woik In this cits, when a rumor had gone out that the little c iptaln had nothing to eat An old couple, worrying over the stors', arose In the middle of the night nnd brought hei a basket of provisions, with mans tears of soirow for her con dition, while otheis came similarly laden. The rumor had been false, but It brought out the tender generosity of the Scranton people, and she believed that she need not Tear for the welfate of the olllceis The Volunteers aie hard-wot King people and must contlnu alls make sacrifices, hut the Lord al vvass lepass them, she said, for scat teiing bles-sed sunshine through the wot ltl.

The teachers committee and the principals of Grammar A -chools met In conjunction last night to fix a set of rules governing the examination of Giammar A pupils for admission to the high school. The principals had the room to themselves until 0 o'clock, while the committee was In tho supei Intendent's office considering another matter, and they went over the sub ject thoroughly The question to be solved by the com mittee, and It was foi the puipoe of having some advice the pilnelpals weie called In, was whether an exam ination eveis month woufcd be too much of a neivous stmln on the pupils Mr. Langan, chariman of the commit tee, made the statement that some doctors have made stiong comments on the health-lmpalilng policy of monthly examinations. Mr. Jayne said ho didn't take any stock In such a statement. Let the doctors that think so, If theie are nie any. come before the board, and It will soon be seen who thes aie The teacheis wore allowed to debate and vote co-equal with the members of the committee. A motion was mtde by Pi of. Ketrick that one examination In the school building eveiy three months and two nt the high school should be all tho examinations tequlr cd. Theie was a majority against that The principals as a rule did not think that an examination eveiy month would be too much of a nervous stialn and a motion that this number be held was carried There was a question, too, whether It would be too much to bring the pupils out In the haul weathoi to tho high school foi thiee of the ten exam inations. John Gibbons thought it would do them good to see the new high school building and get Insplr tlon fiom It. If the objection was talsed that It was too much to bring them out three times in one year, what would It be, asked Ml Gibbons, after they ate admitted to the high school and have to go cveis day? So It was decided that theie will be ten examinations In the term, seven In the respective buildings nnd the other three In one tlass at the high school The average to be attained lower than which the pupil falls, was fixed nt Ci per tent. And theie will be a uniform credit mark foi all the schools. Superintendent Howell will prepaie and Issue the questions Pi of Ketrick, Miss Penman and Pi of Hawker were appointed a com mittee to examine any pupils who tluough sickness or any othei sulll clent cause, aie unable to attend the regular examinations. Prof. Stone, Prof. Cruttenden and Prof. Owens were selected to codify the rules nnd will meet tomorrow ev ening with the committee and submit them for approval. CANDIDATE JENKS' RECEPTION.
