IN THE PUBLIC EYE.
The re-election of Klmer K. Clarr as
supeilntedeul of schools of Curbondalo
forvthe term of three years, Is a fitting
recognition of 11 man who lias striven
with success, to dispose of the educa
tional Interests of tills district in n
satlsfuctoiy manner. When it publlu
olilcer succeeds under adverse clicuui
stances It Is nil the more to Ills credit,
mid Superintendent Clarr enn "Well feel
the satisfaction that arises amid such
circumstances. Xo one will deny that
Ills administration, when he came hero

thrte years ago from Berwick, was
hedged about with dllTlculties that to
most men might be disheartening. Hut
Mr. Clair is made of sterner stuff than
to be so dismayed, lie's so chock full
of determination, tempered, however,
with judgment and discretion, that it
would be disappointing at tills time
to have to write that these dllllcultles
were greater than be. But has was
supeiior, and he commences ids sec
ond term under circumstances that are
a bright augury of continued and even
better results and with the pleasantest
relations between himself and the
teachers of the district. Jn referring
to these relations, it might be mention
ed that had another selection at this
time but Mr. linrr, theio would have
been keen disappointment throughout
the corps of teachers. The past three
ycais, his first term, has developed a
reciprocity of feeling between Mr. Garl
and the teacheis that has been manifested-
In the school room work of the
period.
In the Institute feature, Superintend
ent Gurr has also manifested his fit
ness. Both In the weekly meetings of
the teachers and in the annual iiihltlute
lie has indicated that his knowledge
of educational matters is not the result
of the .skimming process, but the fruits
of hard, earnest application of ills
talents and qualities. The public, too,
shared directly In Mr. Garr's manage
ment of the annual institute, for last
December, Carhondule, through Ills en
deavors, was privileged to listen to two
of the most distinguished speakeis In
the country, Col. Henry AVatlerson,
and Rev, Dr. Stafford. Less worthy of
ferings might have sulllced, but in
securing them, Mr. Gurr Indicated the
broadness and thoioughne.ss that
mark his grap of affairs.
Albert It. Jones, who left yesterday
morning for Trenton, X. J,, lo assume
the duties of advertising manager of
the Title American, taken with him the
slncerest wishes of a legion of friends
in C'nrbondale.
The position which Mr. Jones takes
Haiti, olfers lare opportunities, that It
can be safely said, will he made the
most of by him. The True American
Is the' oldest paper and It Is the lead
ing dally in the capital ilty of Jersey.
This Is the first time in its career that
It has had aa advertising manager.
Heretofore the stress of competition in
that Held was not felt by this paper,
but now that there Is a spirited ilvalry
on 11 was deemed expedient to create
the position, which after deliberate
consldeintlon was offered to Mr. Jones,
in preference to candidates for the
place from New York city. Tills is
quite a compliment to Mr, Jones, and
It Is pretty certain that the confidence
will not prove to be misplaced. He
will he given the widest latitude, tlio
fullest opportunity to give play to his
qualities, The field, therefore. Is 11
promising one, and Mr. Jones' friends
look for him to capture al the laurels
possible.
GIRL SWALLOWS PIN.
Puzzling Local Physicians Child
Eats Paris Green,for Candy.
The case of Annie Murphy, of Cot
tage street, Is causing a good ileal of
concern to 'local physicians. On Sun
day last, she- swallowed a pin. Soon
after she began to suffer uud bus blnco
been In distress, Tlio doctor who was
called, sought another physician in
consultation. The girl's .condition Is
such that It Is believed that it will
be necessary to send her out of the
city to where the x-ray can be used to
locate tho dangerous obstruction. An
operation will probably be necesary In
older to avert dangerous consequences.
These days house cleaning days are
tho ones which tiro full of danger for
the littio one. Uetween swallowing
small articles wllch strew the house In
confusion to eating poisons, say Paris
gieen, thinking it to bo candy.
An accident of tho latter kind occurr

Mis. At den Losler, of William avenue,

Last night's Evening Lender says of
the local aspect of Tho Tribune's Edu

"Considerable local Interest Is being
shown In regard to the Scranton Tri

been quickened by the fact that two
Curbnndalu. contestants out of a total of

IS IT TRUE, H0NESDALE?
Some Maple City Sports Inform Us
That They Have No Team Tell TTs
It's Not So.
A meeting of the base bull enthusiasts
will be held this evening. A cupluln
and manager .will be elected and other
business transacted. If arrangements
can be made the first game of tho sea
son will be played at Athletic Park
on May .10. Honesdnlc correspondent,
Scranton Truth.
From what we have learned this
year about Honesdale's base ball en
thusiasts and her base ball team, we
iould say that advertising In this way
for enthusiasts is about as effective u
means, under the circumstances, as
any, to work, up interest enough in the
chestnut borough to warrant a team
putting on suits ns representatives of
the Maple city.
It really jarred us the other day when
we were informed by some Honesdnlc
sport that there was no base ball team
ill Honesdale. We were hopeful of a
game with the mighty Maple city pisiy
eis, for the honors, alone, of playing
with them, even if our excited beads
be lowered to tho dust of the base ball
diamond by the crushing defeat that
the Industrious, though perhaps over
zealous correspondents, school-masters,
etc., have won led us over. It was
discouraging therefore, positively dls
eoui aging when the Honesdale young
men, and they are active in -Maple
city sports, informed us that they
knew of no team that Honesdale had
this year. Shame on you, Honesdale
correspondents, if you have been
kidding us and woe be to you If you
have disappointed our hopes of the
honor of u game with you. We pi.i'y
once more that it is not so that you
have deceived us and we pray all the
harder that the challenge the Cres
cent's manager mailed to Honesdale n
few days ago will be given some favor
able answer. Our cup of joy will In
deed be overflowing when the honor
will be ours of playing with the mighty
Honesdale tiger?.
The Wayne Independent of the fore
part of tills week lias an article which
confirm our woist fears. It says in
answer to the challenge from the Cres
cents that a team In Honesdale is not
a possibility this season; that en
thusiasm Is wanting, that the ball
grounds are in the land of nowhere,
that well, that there won't bo any
team. Too bad, Honesdale, that you
won't have the opportunity to make ns
take the rear seat that your staff cor
respondents so generously pointed out
to us. Too bad, again that we won't
have the honor of playing with your
all-powerful aggregation, that in the
pastlu ought so much fame to you,
Queer isn't It, how such a base ball
team, such as this one can go out of
business so quickly In such a lively,
up-to-date place as Honesdale'.' Queer,
it Is, no mistake.

MUST WORK TOGETHER. N
Three Partners Necessary to Durable
Business Success.
I'unii Aiidiew l'.aiifip'a "'llic Kinplic of ltti-I-
III'SM."
There Is a partnership of three in the
Industrial world when an enterprise is
planned, The first of these, not In Im
portance hut In time, Is capital. With
out it nothing costly can be built. From
It comes the iirst bicath of life Into
matter, previously inert.
The structures roared, equipped and
reudy to begin In any line of Industrial
activity, the reeond partner comes into
operation. That Is Business Ability,
Capital has,dono Its part. It has pro
vided all tha Instrumentalities of pro
duction; but unless it can command
the services of able men to manage
lite business, all that Capital has done,
crumbles into ruin.
Then comes the third partner, last la
order of time, but not least, Labor. If
It falls to perform Its pait, nothing can
bo accomplished. Capital and Business
Ability, without It brought Into play,
aro dead. Tlio wheels cannot revolve
unless tho hand of Labor ntarts them.
Now, volumes can bo written us to
which one of tlio three partners Is first,
second or third In importance, and the
subject will lemalu Just as It was be
fore. Political economists, speculative
philosopheis and preachers have been
giving their Jews on (ho subjecjt for
liundieds of years, but the answer has
not yet been found, nor can it ever be,
because each of tho three Is all-Import-ant,
ami every 0110 Is equally essential
to the other fwo. There Is no flrt, sec
ond or last. There is no precedence!

They are equul members of the great
trlpie alliance which moves the Indus
trial world. As a matter of hlstory
Labor existed before Cupltal or Busi
ness Ability, for when "Adam digged
and Eve span" Adam had no capital
and if one may judge from the sequel
neither of the two was inordinately
blessed with business ability, but this
was before the reign of Industrialism
began and huge investments of Capital
were necessary.
The three are equul partners of a
grand whole. Combined they work
wonders, separate, neither is of much
account. Thus far, notwithstanding the
differences that from time to time have
unfortunately rent them apart, they
have mude the closing century the
most beneficent of all that have pre
ceded It. Humanity, the world over,
is better than It has ever been, mate
rially and morally, and I have tho faith
that It is destined to reach still higher
and loftier planes than even the most
sanguine have imagined.
Capital, Busloess Ability and Labor
must be united. He Is an enemy to
all three who seeks to sow seeds of
disunion among them.
"THE NEW STAE."
Piofoor Wliislow rjllun. i" rrirtlilmcc Journal.
A little over 11 year ago the most re
markable "New or Temporary Star" of
modern times appeared In the constella
tion Perseus. The star was not in any
catalogue, and two days before discov
ery It was not bright enough to bo
shown on a pbotographla plate of the
region containing stars which have
but one one-hundredth of the light giv
en out by the faintest star visible to
the naked eye. On February 23, two
days after discovery, It readied its
greatest brightness, when it was as
bright as Cnpellu. the third stafln or
der of brightness In tlio whole heavens.
It waned slowly and with several well
marked lluctuatlons In Its light, nnd
In two months was on tho limit of vis
ibility with the naked eye. It Is still
easily visible in telescopes of small
size. DuriiiK Its decteaso In tulghtness
It changed color from white lo dull red,
and is now somewhat greenish In tint.
The spectrum was at llrst continuous,
such as Is given by the light from a
glowing solid or liquid body or from a
gus under pressure, then bright bands
were formed, which later assumed the
form and position of tho bands In the
Miectra of nebulae. All these changes
were expected as they followed closely
the history of similar stars In recent
years.
But within a few months most unex
pected and startling changes have
occurred whlcli have made the star once
more the chief object of interest in the
sky. The nebula whlcli surrounds the
star, or into whlcli the star has beene
changed, has been successfully photo
graphed at several observatories which
are equipped with telescopes of great
power, and It contains several centies
of condensation whoso positions are
hhlftlnir so rapidly that their motion
can b detected in photographs taken
but several days apart. Careful at
tempts to determine tlio parallax of tho
star show that It Is Inappreciable; tho
btur, therefore, Is at a very great dis
tance from tho earth. Theie seems

to be no doubt that the actual motion
