HIS SCHEME WON'T WORK
Mayor's Idea of Continuing Hockcn-
berry nnd Davis as Specials Is
Not Feasible, Says Solicitor.
Mayor Molr is likely to encounter
some difficulty in his scheme to provide
salary for tho successors of Patrolmen
Saul mid Dyer by malting Messrs.
Hockenberry and Davis specials und
re-appointiiiff them every ten days.
City Controller Howell has refused to
countersign the warrants for their pay
as regulars and is now hesltatinrr to
npprovo them ns specials. City Solic
itor Vosburg, In response to a request
for nn opinion on the matter, states In
directly that the mayor can not cany
out the scheme he has In view.
The opinion is couched In carefully
guarded terms. It reads as follows:
Scrantou, Pa., Sept. 23, K.O.
Usdras Howells, Esq., City Controller
Dear Sir; Kepblng to your lequest lor
nn opinion as to the light of olllcers to
compensation who hae been appointed
by tho mayor as special olllcers and then
ussigned to duty, under the provisions
of tho orOlnanco of the 7th of April, 1&71,
1 would say:
That under the city ordinance special
officers can only be assigned to duty in
caso of "absolute necessity," und only fur
a limited period. It seems to mo that tho
mayor must ludgo In the llrst Instance
whether or not there is such absolute
necessity as is contemplated by the or
dinance referred to, and that he must
havo a discretionary power to some ex
tent In determining whether or not such
necessity has arisen.
Of course this discretion is subject to
review for abuse. I cannot pretend to
stato in nn opinion just what would or
would not constitute a case of nbsolute
necessity, unless a particular Instance,
and the facts nnd circumstances connect
ed therewith, ure stated to me; but with
rcferenco to the appointment of special
officers on the occasion of tho letter car
riers' convention which was recently held
in this city, and tho firemen's convention
which Is soon to bo held here, In my ori'i
lon tho mayor would be justified, in ap
pointing special olllcers and assigning
them to duty on each of these occasion:,
and that they would bo entitled to com
pensation for services rendered under
such appointment, from, the city of
Seranton.
I may add that in my opinion the mayor
has a right to appoint speclat officers and
assign them to duty in cases of emer
gency, for tho "general welfare," even
without any nuthority for so doing.
Very truly yours.
A. A. Vosbuig, City Solicitor.
The matter will likely be submitted
to councils for adjudication.
FIRST BECITAL OF SEASON.
Brilliant Musical Event in Elm Park
Church La3t Night.
The first organ recital of the season
was given last night by Professor J. Al
fred Pennington at Kim Park church.
A large and appreciative audience list
ened with delight to the beautiful pro
gramme. The organ numbers were, ot
course, of a high order nnd were yet
not too classical to please even the un
cultivated ear.
The first trilogy of themes was par
ticularly charming, including a swiftly
flowing but dlgnllled allegro movement
by West, a lovely and pathetic andanto
from a Buck sonata, and a Grand
Chorus by Bossl. Probably the most
enjoyable selection was the final tran
fccriptlon of tho march nnd chorus from
Tannhaueser, although the lovely offer
tory by Devred had a unique charm
Mr. Pennington's organ playing has
always been considered of an excep
tional typo of excellence, but more and
more the people of this city aro grow
ing to realize that his beautiful, fin
ished work In every number of an In
credibly extensive repertoire rises be
yond mere talent to tho height of
genius. No more pleasing programme
has been given than that of last even
ing, when everv selection was new in
tho record of his recitals.
The vocal soloist of the occasion was
T. It. Williams, the tenor of the First
Methodist church, Wllkes-Barre. whose
teputatlon is far more than local.
Mr. Williams sang with great feel
ing and Intelligent Interpretation "Pour
Out Thine Heart Before the Lord." His
voice Is resonant and of wido range.
The upper register is notably true and
sweet, und there Is a pleasing abseneo
of mannerism. His second number,
Adnms' "Holv City," was sung at re
quest, as on a previous visit to this
city that favorite solo had so delighted
his listeners that many desired Its repe
tltlon. Mr. Williams made a most sat
isfactory Impression last evening. It
Is to be hoped these concerts will bo a
frequent occurrence this season.

CENSUS ENUMERATORS.
Qualifications, Duties and Compensa
tion Outlined in a Communica
tion from tho Census Bureau.
John R. Edwards, tho local super
visor of the census, has lecelved from
tho census bureau In Washington a cir
cular which throws a lot of light on
the duties of enumerators. It is as fol
lows: The Act of March 3, 1899, under the
Ptovlslons of which the twelfth census
of tho United States Is to be taken, pro
vides for tho uppolntment of supervis
ors of census, one or more to each
state and tenltory, the Klstilct of Co
lumbia, Alaska, and the Hawaiian
Islands, to have general supervision
within their respective districts of the
enumeration to bo made In June, 1900.
One of the duties Imposed by the cen
sus act upon these supervisors Is the
designation of suitable peison3 to be
employed, with tho consent of the
director of tho census, as enumerators
within their respective districts. It Is
fuither provided that such persons shall
be residents of the enumeration dis
tricts for which they may he appointed,
and that they shall bo selected solely
with reference to fitness, and without
reference to their political party affili
ations. The appointment of enumerators will
be made with reference to physical ac
tivity and to uptness, neatness, and ac
curacy in writing and in the use of
figures. Tho census requires active, en
eigetlc persons of good address and
readiness with the pen. Only such can
do the work with satisfaction to tho
government or profit to-themselves.
Each person seeking nppolntment as
census enumerator must make a writ
ten application to tho supervisor for
the district of which a resident, giving
the Christian name and surname In
full; whether a citizen of the United
States or not; present legal residence;
sex and color; age; place of birth; tho
principal facts of education and of pro
fessional or business experience, In
cluding a statement of all national,
state, county, or municipal ofilces held
at any time; nature of present occu
pation, if any; previous experience In
census work; physical condition, and
knowledge of English and other lan
guages. This application (see form 7
217) must be made In the handwriting
of the applicant throughout, and must
be certified to ns such.
The enumeration required by the cen
sus net will begin on the first day of
June, 1900, and must bo completed with
in two weeks In all cities for which
8,000 inhabitants or more were reported
in 1890, nnd In all other districts on or
before the first day of July next there
aftr. It will be necessary for each enumer
ator, before entering upon his duties,
to receive a commission, under the
hand of the supervisor of the district
to which he belongs, and to take and
subscribe an oath or affirmation that
he will faithfully discharge all the
duties required of him under the law.
Under the provisions of Section 7 of
the census act. the enumeration In
June, 1900, Is restricted to Inquiries re
lating to tho population, to mortality,
and to the products of ngrlculturo and
of manufacturing and mechanical es
tablishments, and, by the same sec
tion, the schedules of mortality and of
manufacturing and mechanical estab
lishments may be withheld from the
enumerators, in the discretion of the
director of tho census. In no case,
therefore, will the schedules of Inquir
ies to be mado by the census enumer
ators exceed four In number, and in
this respect the work of the enumer
ators nt tho twelfth census will be
much more simple than that required
of enumerators at preceding censuses.
The compensation to be paid to
enumerators Is fixed by Section 10 of
tho Act of Mnrch 3, 1899, and a mini
mum rate of two cents for each living
Inhabitant, two cents for each death,
fifteen cents for each farm, and twenty
cents for each establishment of pro
ductive Industry Is provided for all sub
divisions where such allowance shall
be deemed sufficient. In other sub
divisions where higher per capita rates
aro to bo paid, according to tho diffi
culty of enumeration, tho maximum
rate will not exceed three cents for
each living Inhabitant, three cents for
each death, twenty cents for each farm,
and thirty cents for each establish
ment ot productive Industry, while In
sub-dlvlslons where per diem rates nra
established, having reference to the
nature of tho region to be canvassed
and the density or sparseness of settle
ment, or other considerations pertinent
thereto, the compensation allowed to
enumerators will bo not less than three
nor more than six dollars per day of
ten hours actual field work each. F.x
cept In extreme cases, no claim for
mileage or traveling expenses will be
allowed to any enumerator, and then
only when authority has been previ
ously granted by the director o tho
census.
Any enumerator who. without justifi
able cause, neglects or refuses to per
form tho duties ot his position, after
accepting an appointment and quali
fying for tho work, or who communi
cates to any person not authorized to
receive the same any Information
gained by him In tho performance of
his duties, will too subject to a fine of
flvo hundred dollars, as provided in
Section 21 of the census act.
The provisions of tho Act of March
3, 1899, which relato to tho appoint
ment, duties, and compensation of
enumerators aro appended for the In
formation of all concerned.

Is tho Act Under Which tho Board Is
Acting Unconstitutional Position
Taken by tho City Controller-On
the First of Next Month Controller
Howell Will Refuso to Sign tho
School Board Warrants Legal
Steps Thnt Will Follow in tho
Wake of That Action.
More Importance than was first sup
posed attaches to tho fight City Con
troller Howell Is making for compen
sation from the school board for audit
ing the schol district accounts. It Is
not at all Improbable that the caso will
result In the court declaring that the
board Is operating under an unconsti
tutional act.
The Act of 1874, under which the
board Is organized, makes no provision
whatever for the auditing of the school
accounts by the controller. The Act of
1889, under which the city Is acting,
provides that the city controller shall
exercise tho same supervision of the
school district accounts as he does of
the city accounts, and specifies that
"his compensation shall be fixed" by
the board before his election.
HAS RISEN REPEALED.
The city controller claims that the
first named act Is unconstitutional and
has been repealed. Tho school control
lers deny the unconstitutionality of the
Act of 1S74, and contend that the clause
of tho Act of 1889 giving the city con
troller supervision of tho school ac
counts Is Inoperative because It Is In
conflict with the act under which tli?
school board Is organized.
Something has got to drop when the
case reaches court, and the city con
troller says It won't be the Act ot 16S9
or any of Its clauses.
On the first, of next month Secretary
Fello'ws, of the school board, will i0b
mlt the school warrants for the city
controller's countersignature. The city
contt oiler will refuse to approve them,
on the ground that the board has re
fused to make provision for compen
sating him for the work. The treas
urer will then lip asked to pay the war
rants without their receiving anything
more than the approval ot the presi
dent nnd secretary of the board, which,
of course, the treasurer will refuse to
do.
WILL GO TO COURT.
Then the school board will go Into
court for a mandamus to compel tho
controller to countersign the warrants,
and this stage being reached, the case
stated agiced upon by Solicitor Reedy,
of the school board, and City Solicitor
Vosburg will be submitted.
While a decision Is being awaited, the
creditors of the school district, Includ
ing the officers and employes, will like
ly have to wait for their pay.

INSPECTOR MAKES DENIAL.

Meat Distributed Here.

tion, Food Inspector WIdmayer says
there Is no truth whatever in tho story
that a car load of tainted pork saus

The only shipments of cut pork re
ceived In this city, the Inspector says,
are in tho shape of pork loins and these
