John Meiedlth, of North Promley avenue, was drowned In Lake Potions yesterday afternoon. About 1 o'clock he went out In a boat with another West Scrnnton boy, John Pdglnton. They rowed about half a mile up the lake, landed and piepaied to go In bathing. Priglntnn Is a falily good Kwlnimer. but Meiedlth was not. They pushed the boat off a shoit rils tanee from the shore nnd KdRlnton, tellltiR Meredith to wait until he ascer tained the depth of the water, dove In. As he came up to the surface he heard a splash, nnd when he Rot tho water out of his ees, discovered that Meie dlth was not In the boat. The splash Indicated to hint that Meredith dove In, and he waited for him to eome up out of the ttntor, but Meiedlth never appealed. Accordlnp to Pdglnton's story, after Meredith entered tho water he did not again come to the suifaco. After wait Ins: for a time for his companion, I'M-.

Contiaiy to wiit'ial belief the normal school Is not of Ungllsh or Ameiican oilgln, writes Kiapcls H. Palmer In the curient number of Success, its begin ning dates beyond tho Revolution. Its father was Jean Paptlsto do la Salle, who died In 1710, and was canonized In May, 1900. La Salle was a priest and dignitary In the cathedral at Rome. Ho had enjoved the best advantages of an education, but his heait was moved when he saw the youth of his city growing up In Ignoianco and vice, Ho sought to establish schools for them, but found that there was no cap able teachers, To supply lnstiuetois of a better class he gathered a chosen band of young men into his own house, wheio he supported and trained them at his own expense. The vvoik soon outgrew these accommodations, und, about 16S5, with the aid of benevolent friends, he established a normal school to be devoted to training: teachers for elemental y schools, A few yearn beftn'c Demla, a priest of Lyons, performed a similar service, but, soon after his death, tho entcr pilse failed. La Salle gave up his can oniy, with Its honors and liberal In come, to dcvto himself to his school, By his self-sacilflce his school became very successful, and established a not able system of education but, nfter his death, nothing more was heard of independent normal schools In France for nearly a century. HOMBACH IS AT LIBERTY TWICE SET FIRE TO ELM PARK CHURCH. He and Four Othor Lackawanna Con vict Wore Among Forty-Ave Prisoners Released from tho East ern Fenitontiary in One Batch as a Result of the Application of the New Commutation Law Joseph Wisinski, a Second Degree Mur derer Is Another. Five of the forty-five prisoners re leased from the Pastern penitentiary Saturday, under the operations of the new commutation law, passed by the Inst legislature, were Lackawanna convicts. One of them was Peter Hombach, who was serving ten years for twice setting fire to Kim Park church, Hom bach was employed as a watchman at the church and, It appears, became seized with the hallucination that the ground on which the church was built belonged to him through a bequest of an uncle who had lived In Clevelnnd, In 1S92, when the church was Just completed and arrangements were un der way for Its formal opening, it vtas burned to the ground by an enily morning fire. How tho flames oilgl natcd was a mystery, but no one had mote than n passing suspicion that they were of Incendiary orlRlu. The chinch was rebuilt nt once nnd was again almost ready for occupancy when, on a December night In ISM, It vtas again almost completely destroyed by a flie of mysterious origin. HOMBACH APRPSTPD. Suspicious circumstances pointed to Incendiarism, and tho services of Bar ring iS McSweeney's detective agency vtfre engaged to get at tho bottom of tho mystery. It was not long before Hombach was under an est and so convincing weie the proofs of his guilt ns presented by the detectives that his counsel weie diiven to the extremity of pleading insanity for their client. They failed to establish this contention to the satisfaction of the couit and Jurors nnd on October SI, 1S93, Judge I". P. Smith sentenced hltn to ten yeais in the Pastern penitentiary. After his incarceration, Hombach evidenced strong signs of Insanity nnd spnt a considerable portion of Ills time In the N'onlstovn Insane asjlum as a re sult. Another of the jeleased quintette is Joseph Wisnlski, who wns convicted in October, ISM, of minder in the sec ond degice for killing Pellx Dalrdzak with a knife, In February, 1SD5, on South Washington avenue. Judge P. W. Gunstcr sentenced him to seven years. John McOotvan, another of the five, was convicted before Judge H. M. Pd wards, in December, 1S9S, of In caking Into and lobbing tho house of Mis. Prldget Kane, of Ctjrbondalo. Ho had just returned fiom a four-year teim for a similar offense, nnd Judge Kd wanrds sent him back for six jeais. LOPGHLIN AND MOON.

When making cups of various kinds, success depends on the Judicious blend ing of the lngicdlcnts and care should be taken not to add too much sugar. Currant water Is delicious. Take a pint of the fiesh-plcked fruit, nnd when they have been washed, let them sim mer In a quart of water, to which n heaping teaspoonful of powdered sugar litis heen added. When cold, stialn and Ice. This currant nectar may be handed in glasses in which a slice of lemon and a few of the fresh currants ate swimming.

To mnke It put Into a Jug four of live thin slices of fresh pineapple, the peel of half a small lemon, cut vety thin; two table spoonfuls of sugar, a wlneglnssful of brandy nnd a gill of mange-flower . water. Cover tho jug closely and let I the contents remain nt least an hour befoie tho cup Is required. Then ndd i a bottle of spatkltng hock which hats been Iced, stir well, stinin Into the bowl In which the cup Is tei V served, and add a botle of Iced seltzer. A few sweet-scented verbena leaves should float on the top of tho cup. More elaboiato drinks, which should appeal nllke to tho tempoinnce advo cates nnd to the lovers of lively con coctions, nie temperance champagne nnd ginger beer. Any quantity of either can be drunk without fear of It going to one's head. Por the "Hz," take a good-sized lemon, nn ounce of gliiRor toot, a pound nnd a half of white sugar, ono ounce of tartailo nid, one gill of yeast and two and a half gallons of water.

When the water Is neaily cold stir In n tablespoonful of ftesh yeast, cover the pan with a thin cloth nnd let tho ginger beer lemntn untouched for twenty-four hours. Then strain It and fill some clean, dry bottles with It. Cork them secuiely nnd store the ginger beer In a cool cellar. CURIOUS BURIAIi CUSTOMS. Some of tho Fnshons That Prevail in Various Places, From the New York Heralil. On the Ivory coast, In West Africa, between the rivers Pandama and Xal, theie lives a curious iiogr ti ihe, known as the Paule, and which Is n mixture of scvcial i aces. So curious Is It that M. Maui Ice Pelafosse, a colonial ofllclal, has thought It well worthy of study, nnd he now narrates Interesting facts about It. Tho coillns used by the negroes, ho mij s, nie lectangular, nnd each Is fashioned carefully cit of a largo block of ncajou wood. The sides, moreover, nio ornamented with colored has reliefs and tho cover Is usually wrought In most artistic style. As nn example of such a cover, Mr. Delafosse piosents one, which was mndo In 1S93 for tho mummy of a chieftain named Nyango Kuassl, On It the chieftain Is lepre sentcil lying on a lcopaid skin, which has been artistically engrnved, the spots theieln being shown by equates, cut out of the wood. Abovo the dead man Is an engraving of nn umbrella, the symbol of his high position on earth, and beneath it a box of cartridges has been drawn. On tho left Is repiesentcxl the gold-hlltcd sabre which he woio on parade, and above It Is an engraving of his favorite drink ing cup. On tho right In like manner may be seen drawings of his dagger and of his gun. Pelow the corpse Is a death's head and tho figure of a wo man, who is holding in her hand a saucer, filled with bioad. The death's bead represents that one among the dead man's slaves, vtho, according to ancient custom, should have been sac llflced nt the time of his death, but whose life was spared at tho Interces sion of M. Delafosse. Oidlnary Paule negroes are burled as soon as they rile, but those of high rank are raiely burled for seven months, nnd some even are not burled ror seven yeais. In tho latter cases the body Is embalmed, nnd then te malns In a loom where death occurred until it Is placed In the coffin. Salt, alcohol nnd palm wine nro the main Ingreellents used In embalming, and cotton, with which gold dust Is some times mixed, serves tn conceal the openings which the operator has made In the body. Frequently thin plates of gold are also placed as a shield over the coun tenance, and all tho ornaments that were woin In life nie spread over the body.
