VOSBURG IS NOW
CITY SOLICITOR
HIS ELECTION AKD QUALIFICA
TIONS ARE COMPLETE.
Select Council Last Night Directed
a Discontinuance of the Appeal
from tho Mandamus and Tortk
wlth Apptoved the Bond as Direct
ed by tho Local Court Must Now
Proceed to Establish His Right to
the Office Nominations Received
from Mayor and Confirmed.
Select council took chances on being
contemptuous to tho Supremo court
and upirocil tho bond ot A. A. Vos
burg us city solicitor.
It was n surprise party to tho anil
Vosburg men. Under tho head of new
business, Mr. Finn Introduced and se
emed tho passage of a tesolutlon de
claring that tho select council did not
wish to further prosecute tho appeal
to the Supreme court from tho man
damus directing the members to np
provo tho Vosburg bond, and direct
ing that Attorney James II. Torrey bo
empowered to enter an nppearanco for
the select council and discontinue tho
appeal. Then tho motion to nppiove
tho bond was put and cnrrlcd by a vote
of eleven to nothing.
When the resolution wns Introduced
Mr. Mclvln indignantly protested1
against tho "trickery" that ho alleged
was behind the measure, and Mr. Mc
Cann, with n show of Indignation
somewhat milder than Mr. Melvln's,
spoke against summary action In such
nn lmpoitant matter, and demanded
that it be referred to committee for
consideration. Their protests weie,
however, unavailing. Mr McCann's
motion to refer was defeated by the
following ote:
Ayes Messrs Kearney, Mclvln,
Wagner, McCann, OTioylo 5.
Nays Mipsrst rinn, ltoss, Thomas,
Williams, James, Chittenden, Schneid
er, Sanderson, Tellows, Lansing,
Cojnc 11.
Tho bond was then taken up for ap
proval and adopted. Mr. Kearney tried
to break a quotum and was confident
of success when Mr. Coyne was pre
vailed upon to leave, but the move
was defeated by the refusal of Mr.
Wagner to lesort to this etremlty In
opposing the approval of the bond
Mcssts. Cojne and O'Royle later re
turned, but Messrs. Kearney, McCann
nnd Mclvln, nftor loitering In the corri
dor for a while, left the building In
disgust
Mr. Vosburg will move at once to
secure possession of the oHlce, It wni
stated, after the meeting
NUMBER OF NOMINATIONS.
Major Mnlr nominated Profeor
George W Phillips as trustee of tho
Scinnton Public llbrniy to succeed W.
J. Welsh, lesigned, and the nomination
was unanimously conflimed forthwith.
The removal of George Connors from
the position of engineer of the Crys-til
steamer was communicated to council
In a letter from Major Molr Tho rea
son assigned for the dismissal was that
Engineer Connor was responsible for
the disabling of tho engine by leovlng
water In its Hues while It vas stored
In temporal y quarters, last winter,
causing them to freeze up and hunt
The matter was referred to tho lire de
partment committee.
Confirmation wns given th? majm'a
nominations of Dr. Thomas B Rod
ham to succeed Di. J K Bentlcy, nnd
Dr. George- II. Rej nolds to succeed Di
"W. A Paine on the board of health
Dr Bcntlej, whoso term expires in ISO1?
has resigned Dr. Palne's term has ex
pired. The nomination of Thomas II Jom-s
ns Inspector of Hyde Pail; avenue pie
wns leferred to committee Mr. Mcl-
ln called attention to tho fact thet
Joseph Tavlor was appointed to this
position by Major Bailey last jear, and
that to confirm the Jones appointment
would make the city liable for the sni
arles of two Inspectors Chairman Will
iams olunteered tho Information thDt
Mr. Tnjlor's resignation wos In tho
major's hands. Council thought It wise
to wait till tho resignation was In evi
dence. Later In tho evening, while the
Democrats were absent In tho attempt
to break a quorum, ns detailed above,
action was reconsidered nnd the ap
pointment confirmed, the Taj lor resig
nation having been presented by tli
mayor in the Interim.
The appointment of Robert M. Wal
ker as Inspector of the Phllo rtreet and
Providence road pave was confirmed,
despite a protest fiorn Mr. Melvln that
no certificate of competencj' accom
panied the communication.
DECLINED TO COMPLY.
Controller Howell sent In a communi
cation declining to comply with th
resolution requesting him to ceitlfy tho
contract for Section B, Fifth sewer dis
trict, reiterating his ptcvlous objection
based on the clause of tho Act of 1S80
reading: " And no aynroprl
ntlon shall bo made for any purpose in
excess of the estimated receipts for tho
current fiscal year."
The controller says In his communi
cation: "While I am fully aware of
the necessity of completing the above
named sewer, hefoie commencing the
pave, I might, for reasons fully as co
gent, certify all other contracts of this
class for which no actual pecuniary
ptovlslon have been mado out of tho
general budget."
In conclusion, he again uiges the
councils to adopt some remedial meas
ures looking to an actual appropriation
of funds for the work.
A communication was received from
Maj'or Molr urging the enforcement of
the old special license ordinances and
suggesting that tho mattei bo referred
to a special committee that tho ordi
nances might bo mado to lit the
changed conditions. The request was
granted and Chairman Williams named
Messrs. Sanderson, Chittenden and Mel
vln as the special committee.
A resolution was introduced by Mr.
Chittenden empowering the mayor to
tender to the Delaware, Lackawanna
and "Western company a reduction of
assessments to a nominal flguro on any
shops or like property tending to in
crease the employment of men. which
may be constructed by tho company
within tho city of Scranton.
Mr. Wagner thought the corporations
were granted too much exemption al
ready by Supreme court decisions and
moved to have the motion referred to
committee. Messrs. Lansing and Chit
tenden explained that the purpose of
tho resolution was to indicate to tho
company that tho council was desirous
of encouraging It in every way possible
to enlarge its works In this city and
to also counteract tho effects of the
movement of iho new board of assess
ors to tax the locomotive shops on the
strength of the technicality that they
have become construction shops and
are not merely repair shops, as for
merly, which latter, under the law, are
exempt.
DECLARED OUT OF ORDER,
Chairman Williams put nn end to the
discussion by declaring the resolution
out of order on Mr. Coyne's point, that
tho shops had not as yet been built
and therefore could not bo exempted.
A resolution by Mr. Chittenden ex
onerating tho Young Men's Christian
association from taxes on Its property
on Wyoming avenuo for tho tlmo elaps
ing since tho fire, was also opposed by
Mr, Wagner and referred to commit
tee. Under tho law, Mr. Chittenden ex
plained, pioperty used for chailtablo
purposes Is exempt from taxation. Be
fore the fire tho Y. M. C. A. was ex
empt from assessment on such por
tions of its building as was not earn
ing a revenue. There Is no revenue
being derived now from tho property
and it could be granted, Mr. Chitten
den argued, that it should be exempted
ns tho property of a charitable organ
ization, not earning revenue. He was
not opposed to having tho matter re
ferred. A notice fiom Conti oiler Howell not
ing that tho lire department commit
tee had contracted bills to the amount
of $152 for furniture for the Crystal
Hose bouse w lthout prov ldlng funds for
their payment brought from Mr. Chit
tenden a strong condemnation of tho
practice of the committee In contract
ing bills and tho contention that it
was an open tource of fraud. Tho
chief of the department, ho argued,
should be alone ompoweied to conti act
bll's.
Mr. McCann thought the mis weio
excessive. Mr Sanderson and Mr.
Lansing thought it was unusual for the
councils to be called upon to pay for
furniture for the fire companies' par
lors, having understood that the com
panies looked ntter these expenses
themselves. Mr. Finn said It wan
neither unusual nor unjust and nlo
defended the present system of having
tho lire department committee ompow
eied to conti act bills.
Ordinances were Introduced ci eating
tho office of paik policeman and fixing
his salary at $7u, providing for a lat
eral sower on Washington avenue, be
tween New York nnd Marlon streets,
nnd tiansfeiilng $150 from .. o appro

ing. Oidlnnnces passed on third leading
transfenlng $279 to the Item for Eigh
teenth ward street repairs and direct
ing that all revenues at tho park bo

On account of a defect, tho ordinance
for nn additional man at tno Hook
and Ladder house was luled out of
order on third reading.

for tho printing of Major Bailey's
messages wns Killed.

VISITORS DAY AT
THE ORAL SCHOOL
WORK SHOWN THE VISITORS
WAS VERY INTERESTING.
Tho Pupils Participate in Drills and
Other Exercises nnd Display tho
Progress Thoy Have Mado During
tho Year Under tho Caro of Miss
Brown Somo Instances in Which
tho Ornl School "Commencement"
Diffcis from tho Traditional Com
mencement in Other Schools.
Yesterday was vlsltois' day at tho
Pennsylvania Oral school and most In
teresting, Indeed, was the work shown
to the guests who were convoyed from
loom to room by one of tho smiling
teachers.
It Is not called commencement dnj,
as there is a marked absence of most
of tho uccessorles of tho traditional
commencement. To be sure, there are
flowers In abundance, but they grow
outside on tho luxuriant rose trees, or
bloom in riotous beauty In bowls about
the rooms, hut there Is no long row of
white-clad maidens waiting for diplo
mas; thero are no bouquets foi them,
no eager congratulations, no chorus
singing, no recitations, no class prophe
cies, no salutatory, no valedictory with
the fair pages and floating white rib
bons, From all these, and many other
things, are these who have long "lost
the golden key" that unlocks the door
of silence, barred out. Among tho
"other things" nie somo for whoso ab
sence thero may be those of us who
attend tho conventional commence
ments with appalling regularltj', and
perhaps even some of the sweet girl
graduates themselves, who might see
a faint cause for congtntulatlng tho
quiet throng aty the Oral school.
For Instance, they do not have to
listen polltelj to long addresses by
school conti oilers, teachers and other
well-meaning but misguided friends,
a'.d thej' are not half dead as tho xc
sult of fiendish examinations and soul
torturing envy as to "honois," gradua
tion gowns, or peihaps tho first arcs
suit.
Nothing less like a public institution
in appeal ance than the Oral School for
the Deaf can well be Imagined. The
cold, gray gt.inlto, as seen fiom the
street, gives small Idea of the beauty
and light and brightness of the airy
looms, thiough the quaint traceiled
panes of which nie seen lovelj glimpses
of tho rich broidery of Ivy outside, the
shadows of waving tree branches, the
color of flowers and the flash of bird
wings. It Is an ideal spot, and no won
der that the little ones, whose sealed
ears and dumb lips lent an air of pa
tient dullness to their poor faces when
thej' Hi st came, blossom out Into radi
ance with sparkling eyes nnd mobile
biowo, as their dajs- pass amid such
benignant suiroundlngs.
MUCH LIKE OTHER CHILDREN.
They are mueh like other children,"
Falil one of the teachers ycsteidaj-.
"Some are brighter than others, but
few are leally dull." But they are
really happy, for there Isn't a sad
looking one In the lot of eighty or more.
Thej' love their tcaeheis, so that some
times the expiesslon on the little faces
of the ' babies," as the wee ones are
called. Is pathetic Indeed.
Tho unconscious feeling for a fold of
tho gown, the anxious ejes, that look
for an appiovlng smile, and tho Intenbc
deslio to please, cannot fall to touch
the visitor
Thej do tiy so hard to make tho
bound come foith that they have never
heaid and cannot heai on eaith! The
little hands piesg com ulslvelj- on tho
heaving chest to "feel" tho voice and
sometimes tenderlj and fondly clasp
tho white throat of the teacher as sho
lllustiates the necessaij exercise of the
muscli s. Poor little souls, theirs Is In
deed a toilsome waj to tho gates ot
speech.
Wondeiful pi ogress Is noted for tho
J ear In those who have been under tho
patient, lov Ing caro of Miss Brown and
her splendid coips of assistants. Tho
work Is slow, but tho great advantago
of having the pupils under continual
supervision and of tho almost mliaou
lous conectness of the method have
their effects.
A pleasing vnilatlon of the pro
gramme this j ear were the drills. The
girls gave a most beautiful Delsartean
exhibition yesterdaj' noon in Greek
costume, the expressions ot vailous
emotions being presented with great
fidelity, together with "feather" move
ments. The boys' dumb-bell and march
ing drills vvcio excellent.
Miss Mary B. C. Brown, tho princi
pal, was much missed jesterdaj. Last
week sho sailed for Euiopo with tho
unlveisity paitj. wheie sho will )e
maln during her vacation. In her ab
sence, Miss King and Miss M. E. Con
ner are in charge. The ehlldicn will
nil leave for their homes on tho 20th
Inst.
SPECIMENS OF PUPILS' WORK.
There were many essays on exhibi
tion, showing the ready Intelligence of
the pupils. They are beautifully writ
ten and indicate thought and fetudj
Heie Is ono bj Charles L. Clark, of
this city, who Is In the class In Eng
lish his tor j'. it should be remembeted
that this is not "show work," but
cvetj-day class exercise:
After tho battle of Hustings Willi un
tho Conqueror brought many Normans
nnd working men and the Norman cus
toms wero Introduced Into England
'lho Norman working men built many
castles and buildings Among tho famous
buildings is London Tower. It was built
not only for tho reMdcnco of William tho
C'onqucior, but a fortification. It has
two walls around It and between tho
walls lies a moat, thus making that
fortification very powerful
For many centuries It was a prison
until about two hundred years ago Tho
kings and queens of England had or
dered tho death of many famous persons,
Mr Walter Rolelsh was executed tharo
by tho order of King Jnmcs I Prince
Edward V and Richard wero shut up
thero by their Jealous uncle, Richard
III tho Duko of Gloucester, whero the
were Mlled In an unknown way. Now
It is used as it museum and its keepers
aro called tha "beefeaters."
A small girl, Mary Sossong, In the B
class, makes the following statement
regarding "civics." Sho does not pre
tend to assert that her Ideas of gov
ernment apply to this city.
We do not llvo to llvo alone. Wo llko
to llvo with people. Wo do not llko to
go with peoplo who de not know how to
behavo Wo llko pleasant society. Pollto

Tho father and mother must teach tho

AN ADDITION IS NEEDED.
Lackawanna Hospital Directors Will
Meet Tomorrow.
Tho directors ot the Lackawanna
hospital will hold n meeting tomorrow
morning for the purpose of discussing
tho question of building an addition to
relievo tho ovei -crowded condition of
tho institution.
There Is sufficient space on tho north
side of the hospital to build the addi
tion, but if that Is done there will not
bo much room between the new build
ing and tho udjotnlng property. It Is
estimated that the addition will cost
upwards of $30,000, nnd, as the money
Is not In sight, thero Is some specula
tion as to what tho directors will do
STILL ANOTHER- CAVE-IN.
It Is Quite Extensive but no Damage
Has Resulted.
An extenslvo cnvc-ln occurred yester
day on North Mnln avenue in tho , Icln

The hole Is about thirty feet deep nnd
extends over a considerable area. Fis
sures leading from the cave run dan

The cave was In one of the old work
