Rearrangement of Lines with Ref erence to the Pupils Who Will Bo Allowed to Attend No. 27 School Ordered It Will Make an Argu ment for Another School In tho First Ward Contract for Grading nt No. 30 School Awarded Miss Gertrude McGeo Appointed. The continuing of an Insurance pol icy for $10,000 on No. 0 cchool building was tho cnuso of much discussion and debate nt last evenings' special ineet Ini? of the board of coptrol. Tho argu ment began when tho 'report of the In surance committee was read awarding $i',000 worth of lnsurancf on tho now No. 9 building to Jnme3 D. Evans and Stark & Turn. C. O. Holnnd, who was seated In the rear of tho room, was given the privi lege of the floor and stnted that com panies represented by him had carried $10,000 worth of Insurance on the old building, which was, of course, can celled when It was torn down, though there was still over two yeais yet to run on It with nn unearned premium of over $40, Hp said it the board gave the Insurance to another linn, as ad vised by tho committee, they would forMt this $40, which. It he again tool: up tho policy, would bo applied to It. On motion of Mr. I.arker It was decided that $4,nn0 of the old policy be continued on No. 3, the limit on that bulldlntr being MO.00O, and that the remaining $0,000 bo transferred to No. 38 school, which lias not sulllclent In surance nt present. OHAPINO T NO. S3. The building committee recommend ed that tho contract for tho grading of the grounds around No. SS school bo awarded to Conrad Schroeder and that tho other two propositions included In the specifications, namely, the grad ing Of the street and tho construction of a retaining wall, bo left till i.ext spring. Mr. Gibbons stated that Mr. Schroeder would not dn tills portion of the work unless ho was assuied of obtaining the entire contract. Ho was In favor of awarding tho whole con tract to him with tho understanding1 that only the grading of the grounds be done nt present. This proposition caused much argu ment and a motion finally made by Mr. Rarkor wa carried awarding the con tract of tho grading to Mr. Schroeder, and If he refused to do, only this por tion of the work to give the contract to tho next highest bidder. A resolution which Mr. Rlilro?, of tho First ward, has been desirous of having passed for a long time finally went through despite most vigorous objection on the part of Mr. Francois, of tho Second ward. It re-establishes tho limits of children attending No. 27 school, which is In tho Second wnrJ. It was hinted by several of tho mem bers last evening that tho re-arrangement will send a large number of schol ars formerly attending No. 27 school Into the First ward schools, overcrowd ing the latter and furnishing nn argu ment for another First ward school house. On motion of Mr. Schriefer an order was ordered drawn for the payment of a, claim for cleaning presented to the board by Max Phillips, tho deposed Janitor of No. 3 school. exempt from taxks. A resolution Introduced by Mr. Jen nings was adopted, entirely exempt ing tho Young Men's Christian asso ciation property from school taxes for the year 189a and from one-half of the taxes for tho year 1S93. A bill of $1,307.37 from the board's at torney, D. J. Reedy, for the year's woik was ordered paid. On motion of Mr. Schwass the superintendent of repairs was ordered to fit up a room In No. 10 building for tho use of a magic lantern to be used for educational purposes. Upon a recommendation by the teach ers' committee, Miss Gertrude McGeo was appointed Primary A teacher in No. 0 school to fill the vacancy caused by tho death of Miss Rosa Shields. A communication from Superintend ent Bovard, of the Dunmore schools, was read, In which It was stated that the number of Scranton pupils attend ing the Dunmore schools was far greater than the number of Dunmore pupils attending the city schools. Tho matter was referred to the teachers' committee for Investigation.

THEY FAVOR THE VIADUCT West Side Board of Trade Committee Interviews D., L. & W. and Scranton Railway Officials. That tho Delaware, Lackawanna & Western Railroad company nnd the Scranton Railway company nro most emphatically In favor of a viaduct over tho West Lackawanna avenue ralltoad crossing was adduced from nn Inter view yesterday with Division Supeiln tendent A, C. Salisbury, of the for mer, nnd General Manager Frank f 11 llman. jr.. of tho latter company, by Hon. John R. Fnrr and Hector Camp bell, of the West Sldo Hoard of Trade. Tho last named gentlemen were ap pointed a special committee at the boird meeting a week ago to visit tho olllclals of both companies and "to talk viaduct," to them. They were very cordially received and wore thoroughly pleased with the reception they re ceived. When soon by a Tribune man last evening Mr. Fnrr stated that Superin tendent Salisbury assured thu commlt teo that the unnecessaiy delaj'3 nt the crossing would be remedied as fai ns possible, nnd that ho would present tho question of a viaduct to tho other offi cials of tho eompiny nt nn early date. Thoy favor a viaduct that would do away with tho dangerous grade cross ing and prevent tho loss of life. Mr. Salisbury stated that he was ap prised of the dangeis nrlslng dally at tho crossing yesterday morning when he was riding on an engine which was backing into the yard. The gate wero down nnd a little child ran over the crossing and narrowly escaped bolns run down and Wiled. His attention was alsc called to tlu necessity for tho removal of the west erly gates from their present location to a point beyond the tiacks now used for switching purposes. Tho superin tendent promised to glvo the matter ins personal nttf-ntion. Several othr matters wore discussed r.nd will be acted upon at the proper time. General Manngei Sllllman reiterated tho position of the company In regard to a viaduct and stated that ns soon as some feasible plan was submitted the ofllclalp would take cognizance of them. Ho suggested that plans and specifications should bo mndo, showing what will bo done In tho matter, and In that way some definite nction can be taken. The company ,nnts the- via duct nnd will do Its rhara towards building It. An ordinance was lull educed In com mon council last Thursday evening by Mr. Cnlpln. of the Sixth ward, fur the bonding of tho city in the sum of $100. 000 to build the viaduct, and It Is now In the hands of a commltteo. An adjourned mooting will be held next Thursday evening, when the or dinance will probably come up for con sideration. It is desired by the pio motcrs that tho ordinance he passed In time to submit It to th- people for a vote at tho February election. HER THIRD VENTURE.

Coursen 420 Lackawanna Avenuo Fine Candies ONE OFFICER DEAD, THE OTHER DYING PATRICK RAFEERTY SUCCUMBS TO LUDDEN'S BULLET. Died Yesterday Afternon, After Hours of Excruciating Agony At Midnight, McKcnna Was Sinking Slowly but Surely, with Little or No Hopo of Ills Recovery Tho Jail Physician Falls to Find Any Very Serious Wounds on Ludden's Body Bolicf That He Is Afflicted with Rabies. One death hns resulted from Watch man Thomas Ludden's mad rampago at Old Forge, Sunday night, and an other Is .hourly expected to bo charged to the account of that miserable wretch, now lying at the county jail more dond than nllve from his own ex cesses nnd tho terrible beating ho re ceived nt the hands of tho infuriated neighbors of his two victims. Patrick RafCcrty, the elder of the two officers nnd the first to go down before Ludden's frenzied, reckless lire, passed away nt 4 o'clock yesterday afternoon, after twenty hours of tho most agoniz ing suffering. Thomus McKenna, tho other wounded officer, wns reported at midnight to bo slowly but surely dying. Crowds congregated about the homes of the ainicted families last evening, and between the expressions of sym pathy aroused by tho contemplation of the widow and ten orphans nnd a prob able second widow nnd four more orphnns, there wero no end of solf-ac-cusatlons and condemnations that tho opportunity for summary vengeance had boon allowed to escape. Ludd"n was hoard to speak only once yesterday. Dr. Donne, the jail physician, examined him yesterday morning and while feeling over his body for Injtules encountered a fractured rib. The twang of pain that accompa nied tho pressure on tho Injured rib raised Ludden from his stupor for a brief time and when the doctor ic marked "Thoy certainly came near killing him," Ludden mutterel, "Wish they had." LUDDEN'S INJURIES. The only injuries the doctor coull find on him besides the fractured rib was a broken finger nnd tho cuts and bruises about the head and face. One of his eyebrows appears to have been kicked entirely away and his left eye Is closed so tight tho ball ennnot lie discerned. In tho struggle In the en gine room one of the men who enmo to Fireman Thomns Moran's assistance fastened a hold on Ludden by jubblng a finger In the eye socket nnd his thumb under his lip. This is tho eye that la swollen shut and there Is a pn siblllty that the sight is Injured, If not entirely destroyed. Several times during the day he raved and raged nbout Ills coll. Early In the morning ho tore oft his clothing and nfter tho doctor had left him ho ripped tho bandages from his body and broken finger. During tho afternoon ho wns again in deep stupor nnd ap peared more dead than alive. There 's no thought yet of giving him a heailm?. In Mlnooka, where Ludden has lived most of his dnys, the amazement Is not so great as elsewhere at his apparent ly crazv actions. HARMLESS WHEN SOBER. When sober, ho is a harmless, good-for-nothing follow, but when drinking heavily, ho was more of a bjast than a human being, It Is said. There Is a well-founded belief among the people of that town that ho Is affected with rabies, for Invariably when under the excitement of drink ho would go about with his chin down, his teeth firmly set, growling continuously like a dog and foaming at the mouth. Whether or not ho was ever bitten by a dog no ono has over heard him say, but it Is a generally accepted fact In Mlnooka that ho must have been. This story reached Old Forgo, yes terday, and caused no end of alnrm to Fireman Moran, whose arm was bitten by Ludden during tho struggle In tho engine room. Ills nrm has swollen slightly In tho Immediate vicinity of tho wound and Is growing more pain ful all the time. Ludden, It appears, started on his rampage Friday night, by beating his wife and turning her and his four chil dren out of doors. He then went to Old Forgo and did not return again. His record, It Is hardly necessary to say, Is a bad ono. He has been ar rested at various times for minor offenses and spent a term In the county jail for larceny. It Is also said that he nearly killed a mnn In Old Forge about six years ago. The affair occurred, so tho story goes, at the very spot, alongside the trestle opposite Fallon's, where he In veigled nnd murderously nssalled John Lynch, Sunday night. OF SAVAGE DISPOSITION. Ludden's mother was found dead in a deserted shanty la Greenwood nnd while It was genernlly accepted that she died from exposuie, there were whisperings that several youths of tho neighborhood were partially respon sible for her death, and whenever Lud den would como across ono of these he would invariably pummel him. One of them was encountered by Ludden at Old Forge when ho was crazy drunk nnd, dragging him Into tho seclude 1 spot above described, was beating tho life out of him when assistance ar rived and ho was prevented from car rying out his murderous purpose. Coroner Roberts will go to Old Forge today to hold an inquest in the Raffer- ty case. I IRE IN STORE WINDOW. Destroyed Some Shoes in the Lester Shoe Store.

ORIGIN AND DESTINY. Subject of Elder John M. Whltaker's Dlacourso in Co-operative Hall, West Scranton, Last Night. "Man's Origin and Destiny" was tho subject of Elder John M. Whltakor's lecture last night In the Co-operatlvo hall, West Scranton. There was a good audience of most attentive hear ers, and typical Mormon hymns were sung. Elder Joseph Flnllnson presided and Introduced Elder Whltokcr, who said In part: "Man's origin nnd destiny from tho Mormon standpoint, from tho stand point of tho Hlble, reason and Judgment Is a theme of vast Importance to hu manity. The uncertainty of specula tion hns never been satisfactory, has never been able to solve the mystery of life where man came from, why ho is here and when death overtakes him, where ho goes. Serious questions these, yet reason alone only knows he Is hero and goes to a somewhere unknown, as he leaves this world. Speculation has failed to throw any light, and of two great schools which for years have contended for supre macy, one, that holding life was "spon taneous," has through the unerring tests of science and reason, been aban doned: tho other, iifo springs only from preoxlstent life," still remains, but offers no solution. "Revelation from the fountain-head of knowledge is tho only hope of solv ing this question nnd the Master hanjl has not been unmindful to His chil dren, r.or left them without consider able hope on these points. Through this avenue, revelation, and In full, har mony with the written word contnlned In tho Blblo the Latter-Day Saints teach that man's spirit Is tho offspring of heavenly parents whom thoy wor ship a3 God; that the spirit grow up from Infancy to man and womanhood, being Instructed In the things pertain ing to that world, having every oppor tunity to acquire knowledge, grow In wisdom, secure progress. That It knew full well the great plan of salvation, had the exercise of Its agency to studv and labor for advancement, or through neglect, fall to grow In the wisdom, knowledge and attain that progress so cured by more faithful and devoted spirits. That some spirits Improved every opportunity, secured every right and became master spirits. 'These are they who kept their first estate,' such as Jesus, Noah, Enoch, Abraham, Jeremiah, Job and those who, when thoy come to earth, were honored ns prophets, because thoy proved them selves worthy of those positions. Others fought against tho great plan contem plated, discussed and accepted by so many, because ambitious, and, like Lucifer, the son of the morning, fell with him from lost opportunities bo causc his own agency refused to accept conditions making for eternal pro gress."
