We rerommemt that the standing of pupils In the senior class for places on the commencement programme be deter mined by their standing at the close of the second term, on or about the llrst of April. NF.F.D OF ASSISTANCE. When asked to explain the necessity of engaging an assistant to the train ing school teacher, Mr, Gibbons, the chairman of the committee, stated that there were now thirty-four of the ion lor class ut the high school taldns a special six months' course at Ihe. train ing school before entering up in the regular course and that for th's reason an extra teacher was deemed neces sary. Messrs. Evans, I'arker aid. Jen nings nil though the lengthening of , the training school course by six months and the shortening of the hlgn school course by the same length of time to be too radical a step to be taken with out proper consideration and on mo tion of Mr. Kvnns this clause or the report was held over until next meet ing. The remainder of the repirt wts adopted. The teachers' committee presented the following recommendations: We recommend the rollowln:- pirmanent appoint it-cuts: Mlsrs Cor.i Jenkins, to Primary C" grade. No. IS aiinc::: Miss I.aura Hughes, to Primary U grade, No. is annex. With reference to noiv re-'dont n.tplta r.tlc.'n fa- ilu schools if .10 ,'i". we make the folk wing recommendations: XON HKSIDEXT PUPILS. That the secretary be dliected to reply to communication from the secretary of the Dunmore school distiict with refer eiicn to pupils from Dunmoiv attending Scranton schools and pupils from Scran ton attending Dumnore scliools.that here after the Scranton board of control will admit to the schools under its charge only such non-resident pupils as shall pay the tuition lixed by the board and also lor the present will permit the children Horn the Heme for the Friendless to at tend the Scranton schools; and also tho pupils from Lincoln Heights, on account of the residents of that locality desiring to become a part of the city and at the present time have a petition to that tf fee signed by every taxpayer. We recommend that the secretary be In structed to notify the principals of all buildings that no non-resident pupils am to be admitted to tho buildings under their ohm go unless a receipt shall be pre sented showing the payment of nt least one quarter's tuition In advance. We recommend that thn following teachers be given credit for nn addi tional year's experience in the adjust ment of salaries on account of having taught nearly the 100 days hi a slnglo school year required by rulo of th'j board. Miss Teresa Rlewltt and Miss Maine Thomas, who taught PT'.i days, and Miss Sarah Cloherty, who taught Ml days. This change to take effect on the next pay roll and not to extend to any back pay. FROM LINCOLN HEIGHTS. Mr. Gibbons did not want to nllow the children from Lincoln Heights to attend tho schools free of charge, any more than the Mlnooka children, who were now debarred from attending. Mr. Jennings thought that as nearly the same number of pupils are now at tending tho Dumnore schools ns there are Dunmoie pupils attending tho Scranton schools that the pleasant .te latlons heretofore existing between both school districts might be con tinued nnd nn amicable adjustment of the matter made. Mr. Phillips, who Is himself the chairman of the teach oi s' committee, moved that these two clauses of the report be referred back to the committee for further consider ation. The motion prevailed and the lest nt' tho report was adopted, The resignation of Miss Nettle Ellas as teacher at No. II school was read and referred to tho teachers' commit tee. A proposition from tho Melodla company to furnish free introductory music books was referred to tho super intendent of schools. A communication from tho principal of No. 14 school was read, presenting the piano recently purchased from funds raised by the scholars of that school to the school district and in dosing a receipted bill for th entire amount.

Delegates from Lackawanna and Lu zerne Counties Discuss the Griev ances Which They Intend to Pre sent nnd Vhlch They Hope to Have Amicably Adjusted Nothing Known Definitely ns to Whether There Will Be Many Representa tives of the Companies nt the Meet ing' Delegates representing various local unions of tho United Mine Workers of District No. 1, comprising Lacka wanna and Luzerne counties, met yes terday in Guernsey halt to arrange for the work of today's convention at the same place, which representatives of all tho coal companies have been Invited to attend. The sessions began at 10 o'clock In the morning nnd continued tilt t! o'clock p. m. In the evening there wns another session, nttendod by the mem bers of tho various committees. Pres ident D. T. Nichols was in tho chair nt all three meetings. Organizer Rohja miii James, who is a member ot tho national executive board, was In at tendance. The report of the meeting as fur nished by the press committee read as follows: "Delegates were present represent ing 40,000 mine workers of the terri tory comprising District No. 1, contain ing over ii.i per coin, oi me miners uii.j laborers In the anthracite region. "Tho lower districts, Nos. 7 nnd 9. have taken action and will work In conjunction with District No, 1, In tho matters to be brought before the con vention tomorrow. "Tho semi-monthly pay, tho powder question, the weighing of coal and the uniform scale price per ton to equalize the earnings of mine workers In the different localities wore given atten tion, as was also the scale of wages for 'company hands' and others of like occupations. "Facts tending to demonstrate a healthy condition of commerce nnl trade were clearly sot forth, and It was pointed out that notwithstanding tho high selling price of coal the min ers are given no advance In their earnings. "The meeting was harmonious throughout, anfl the locals were well represented. Adjournment was mndo nt fi p. m., and tho committee met In tho evening. The convention tomor rlw meets at 0.30 a. m. In joint con ference, when It is expected that a number of the representatives of the coal companies will meet tho mine workers." Yesterday's Associated Press dis patches toid that the executive board of the Shamokln district had choson delegates Saturday night to attend to day's meeting, nnd that tho other dis tricts had taken similar action. Noth ing deilnito could be learned of any coal operator having accepted the in vitation to send a representative to tho conference. Organizer Benjamin James -wished to have it said that the published state ment attributed to National President Mitchell that the miners during the past two years had received a two hundred per cent, advance in wages, was erroneous. "Tf President Mitchell mado such a statement," Mr. James says, "he leferred ponslbly to the bituminous miners. I am positive that he did not apply it generally." HAS A CHARMED LIFE.
