THE SCUAlNTOiV TRIBUNE- TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 13, 1900.

CARBONDALE.
THAT BILL OF EXTRAS.
Partially Disponed of by the School
Board Last Night.
That bill of extras on the addition to
the Central ochool building of nearly
$3,000, to which attention was called by
The Tribune, was taken ui by the
school board again last nlghtf Archi
tect Brown, of Scranton, had been re
quested to be present, but he did not
appear, and, consequently, the board
soon met dllllcultles which It could not
oveicome.
For Instance: The plans showed flag
walk on one hide only In front of the
school and, an both sides had to be
alike to make a complete Job, the board
argued that the plains Implied what
was not actually marked therein. Con
tractor Nolan objected to this, saying
lie was not supposed to furnish no
thing not marked. In this particular
item $10 were Involved.
After reading the entire specifications
a i. ' contract, the board decided that
it could not pass upon nil the Items
without the nichlteet's piesence, but
it did conclude to go over and order
paid such claims ns it knew to bo
Just, namely, those for work which had
been properly authorized. These
amounted to a few hundred dollars.
Contractor Nolan startled the board
by declaring that he had nothing to do
with making out the bill: that it was
done by J. J. Collins and Architect
'nmn.
"What had Mr. Collins to do with It?"
asked Diiector Vannan.
"lie Is my clerk," answered Mr. No
lan. Mr. Vannan "Is ho not your part
ner?" Mr. Nolan "Well paitly. Hut If this
bill is going to be paid I should like
to have It paid soon, If not, I should
like to know it."
The board then proceeded with the
items.
WAGON TIPPED OVER.
It. W. Munn, who baa charge of the
Palace creamery milk loute, had a
narrow escape from Injury, and pos
sibly death, yesterday morning. Ho
was Inside the tightly closed wagon
when lie turned too short and tipped
over on Park street. He succeeded in
stopping the horse before much .dam
age had been done. The result of a
runaway under such conditions may
easily be Imagined. A window was
broken In the wagon.
STATUS OF MUNICIPAL WATER
The enlarged water committee has
obtained opinions from e-Judge
Rhone and City Solicitor Stuart ic
gardlng the contract put out, which
was ucently adversely criticized. The
opinions state that the contract Is
proper and "afe and the committee
proposes to continue the work of get
ting signers which will be considerably
tacllltated by the restoration of confi
dence. PROFITABLE EXCURSIONS.

on my lungs and was neglected until
