ADJUSTING BOUNDARY LINE8.
That Work Has Kept Superintendent
Howell Busy.
Superintendent Howell Is kept busy
theso days by the opening of the pub
lic schools nnd the work of fixing the
boundary lines for each of the schools
has been one particularly weighty
problem to solve. Yesterday the lines
wero satisfactorily established for
Nos. D, 33, 35 and 38 schools, which
were greatly In need of adjustment.
The crowded condition of No. 33 school
In particular rendered changes In the
district necessary.
Superintendent Howell yesterday ex
pressed himself much pleased with
the way In which the present iici ool
year hns opened. After Aarlous
changes and shlftlngs of pupils have
been made, the schools throughout the
city will average about forty students
to a room. This, In the forty-two
schools, will give u. total of about
fifteen thousand pupils. The exact
number has not yet been reckoned,
but from an approximate reasoning,
this la a fair estimate.
It Is perhaps the largest attendanco
which there has ever ben nt the open
ing of school, and the superintendent
yesterday stated that ono thing In par
ticular which pljased him was tho
fact that In no year have so many of
the previous year's students ictutncd.
There has been an exceedingly small
falllng-off, In this restm :t, as Is ?hovn
by the estimates drawn up last June
by the various teachers, showing what
the attendances In their classes should
be In September. All of these flguies
are within two or three of the attend
ance recorded so far.
Superintendent Howell also remark-
ed on the splendid condition of tha
city schools. In addition to there be
ing three new building .ill the old
school houses have been repainted nnd
kalsomlned when necessary, and now
present a fresh and bright appear
ance. Work has been started In all
the schools and the routine of the reg
ular work Is already going on, wllli
a steadiness most commendabl.'.
A large number of the members of
the board of control visited ths dif
ferent schools yesterday and Monday.
NOW IT IS DICKSON
CITY C0UNCILMEN
Are Charged with Having Secured
Money from the Borough by
Means of False Pay Rolls.
A reform wave has struck Dickson
City borough, which Is backed by the
Delaware and Hudson company.
It Is alleged that the borough coun
cllmen and the street commissioner
connived together and defrauded tha
borough out of a large sum of money
by means of fictitious pay rolls for
work alleged to have been done on the
streets of the borough.
Henry McGarrlty, a property owner
of the borough, went before Alderman
Fuller, of this city, yesterday, and
swore out warrants for the arrest of
John Bentham, president o'f the coun
cil; Henry Hogar and Henry Cringle,
members of the council: Isaac Dan,
secretary of that body, and Jacob Mil
ler, street commissioner.
It Is set forth In the Information In
which the warrants were Issued that
the accused by moans of the afore
said fictitious pay rolls secured $169
from the borough treasury. The men
mentioned In the warrants will be
brought before the alderman today.
PLANKING WAS ON FIRE.
West Lackawanna Avenue Bridge
Ablaze Yesterday.
The planking of the West Lackawan
na avenue bridge was set on fire early
yesterday morning In some unknown
manner, and a hole four feet lone by
two feet wide was burned In the build
ing on tho West Scranton side of tho
bridge.
A still alarm was sent in to the
Nay Aug Hose company by Patrolman
Goerlltz, about 6.10 o'clock, and the
company responded and extinguished
the blaze by the use of about forty
gallons of chemicals.
One of the theories for the cause of
the blaze Is that a flying spark from
an engine on the railroad tracks below,
set Are to the planking. Another sup
position is that a cigar stump thrown
Into a small pile of refuse caused the
fire.
GREEN RIDGE.
Mr. and Mrs. E. S. Pratt, of Oroen Ridge
street, left yesterday for a ten days' stay at
Knoxville, Pa.

Exhibits That Will Attract Gieot

From a arrespondent.
Wnllsvllle. Pa.. Sept. 11. The first
day of the Lackawanna county fair,
known officially as the fifth annual ex
hibition nnd agricultural fair of the
Maltland Fair nnd Driving Park com
pany, at this place, was largfly given
over to preliminaries and preparations
for tho three days that are to follow.
The secretary, W. C. Smith, of Dalton,
nnd Treasurer Hulslander, of Scran
ton, ha an easy time of It during
tho earlier portion of the day, as en
tries for the fair came In rather slow
ly, but as the sun got above the meri
dian line and Old Sol commenced to
warm things up, the reflected rays
seemed to give more vigor and life
to the exhibition and later In tho af
ternoon farm wagons nnd occupants
nnd horses and cattle white with dust
come streaming Into the gates.
The pound of the hammer and saw
were heard all over the enclosed space
of the fair ground, as the attendants
nt tho ground got everything ready
for the formal opening tomorrow.
There ore a latge number of outside
shows encamped about tho main ex
hibition building, both under cnnva3
and out In the open air.
THE ATTRACTIONS.
Among the attractions for the visi
tors to the fair grounds are moving
pictures, stereoscopic views of the
Hrltlsh-Bocr war, a palmist, a mam
moth merry-go-round, n photograph
gallery, ring throwing, ball throwing
and the many usual side show fea
tures connected with outdoor festivals.
C. G. Stevens, of Lenox, who has the
dining hall and refreshment privi
leges this year, has pleased the direc
tors and diners by the quality, quanti
ty and daintiness of his catering.
About 11 o'clock In tho morning It was
whispered to the directors that bot
tles of light brown fluid of a suspic
ious flzzlness were being sold, and as
sales of Intoxicants are tabooed, a
bottle of the mixture was at once
sent for.
Amid an air of solemn quiet the hot
tip was opened, and Judgment passed
upon Its contents by the treasurer and
secretary. Though both declared they
were not acquainted with tho taste
of b.oer each reemed satisfied that tho
foaming beverage under consideration
was not that, and permlrslon was
granted for its bale.
The main exhibition building Ik a
three-story structure. The first lloor
Is devoted to displays made by mer
chants, manufacturers and a side show
of moving pictures. The second lloor
Is occupied by exhibits of fancy work,
lace work, and all varieties of dainty
things beloved by women; farm pro
duce of all kinds, fancy pumpkins,
melons, squash, corn potatoes and a
variety of articles that made the ru
ral citizens' hearts swell with pride
as they deposited them tenderly and
lovingly on the shelves; a number of
oil paintings and water colors and
blaclt and white skotches occupy tho
walls on the right-hand side, and
crazy quilts and embroidered spreads
are stretched out in full glory in close
proximity. At the extreme end of tho
exhibition hall and beside the rear
exit Is the booth of Tho Scranton
Tribune, with two large placards an
nouncing: HEADQUARTERS
OF THE
SCRANTON TRIBUNE.
SUBSCRIPTIONS TAKEN HERE.
Tomorrow souvenirs will be distrib
uted from this booth to all visitors,
consisting of a miniature Tribune of
eight pages, with all the news of the
day in Its columns. This souvenir will
be distributed every day of the fair.
OPEN ATIl SHOWS.
Scattered around the main exhlbl
tlon hall are a number of tents and
open-air shows, designed to coax the
stray nickels from the pockets of the
sightseers, and back of them, In a
seml-clrcle, are the cattle stalls, filled
with the aristocracy of Lackawanna
county bovlnes, sheep, swine, poultry
and other animals of the earth and
air.
The track Is very dusty and the
exercising of the horses entered In the
races Is attended with considerable
discomfort, both for the Jockeys, horses
and spectators. The fair directors
promlso to put a sprinkling cart on
the course and keep It going until
the first raco Is called today.
The third floor of the exhibition
building is turned Into a grand stand
of ample seating proportions, and di
rectly In the centre of It Is the official
wire stretching across to the Judges'
stand.
The country around Wallsvllle Is of
a very hilly nature and it hardly
seems possible that a space of land
sufficiently level to lay out n half
mile track could be found anywhere
around, but It has been done, and
"V
Wero It not for the economy of
Nature, the world would cease to
exist.

FBOM ALL SECTIONS.
From the above card It will be seen
that all sections of the county and
some ouslde counties are represented
In the fifty-four entries'. Scranton
and Carbondale horses are In every
rare, and local sportsmen will un
doubtedly be out In force every day of
the fair.
The Judges of the sixteen depart
ments Into which the fair Is divided
will not be named publicly. This
course Is taken so that no Influence
can be brought to bear on them by
Individual exhibitors or personal ec
qualntances. Tho directors of tho fair
consider this to be the only Just
course. The awarding of the pre
miums is naturally a somewhat deli
cate task, as, of course, each contest
ant thinks his or her exhibit Is the
best In the fair and the mora quietly
tho decisions of the Judges can bo
rendered the less chance there Is for
hard feelings or controversy.

GRAND JURY REPORT

There Is much speculation about the

feel they might Buspect would be ap
proached by some of the partlcs.whont

of the union decline to iIIscuhs the
purpose of bringing on these additional

however, that some of them are nos
ing about the vicinity of the grand

passed upon yesterday were those in
which Councllmen W. V. Griffiths and
James J. Grler are charged with ac
cepting bribes In connection with the

ber of police cases, among them those
