rharge of assault and battery.
Mcphtin'n compunction for , his. crime
was promiscuously displayed, but the
mothcr-ln-law felt no pity. The alder
man held Median In $300 bull, which
was not rurnlshed, and the offender la

That Iniquitous Watch.
The watch, which was the cause of
Frank Hill, of Park PJace, keeping a
berth warm In the station house for
two days and nights, was returned to
Its owner yesterday.
Hill, who on the charge of stealing
the watch was proven' not guilty, .was,
however, lined $3 for drunkenness. This
fine he persistently refused to pay, de
nying that he was drunk. Upon Patrol
man Hart, who arrested him, and sev
eral other witnesses, testifying that he
was drunk, Hill finally decided that
they "were correct In their declarations,
and decided to pay the fine. .
Social Session.
Last evening, West Side conclave,
Improved Order of Heptosophs, held a
social session In the rooms of the Rob
ert Morris lodge.
The attendance was large, and a long
programme of solos, vocal and Instru
mental, and recitations, proved greatly
pleasing to all. Fred Itoblson's har
monica selections were excellent and
occasioned mud! applause. Hon. T.
Jefferson Reynolds gave an oration,
that was favorably received. I'pon the
conclusion of Mr. Reynolds' oration, re
freshments were served by Caterer
Hoblson.
So Not Like the Name.
Cemetery street, leading from North
Main avenue to the Cathedral cemetery,
Is to be known hereafter as West Gib
son street. The property holders along
the thoroughfare do not like the Idea of
being residents of "Cemetery" street
and not finding It convenient to move
to some street with a more desirable
name, concluded to change the name of
the stieet.
Accordingly the owners of the plot
which have been recently opened on
either side of the street, have agreed
to mark It on their mops as a continua
tion of Gibson street, which It would be
if Gibson street was extended. When
the street Is formally deeded over to the
city It will be known as West Gibson.
Boy Badly Injured.
After viewing the Knights Templar
parade from the tower of the city hall
on Tuesday, young Albert 12 vans, son
of Mr. and Mrs. Edward Evans, of
South .Main avenue, met with an acci
dent in which his shoulder was dislo
cated, and he was otherwise injured.
In company with a number of other
boys, young Evans was descending on
a ladder in the tower, when lie lost his
footing, and fell to the floor below. Ho

ELECTRIC LIGHT CONTRACT
WAS AWARDED.
Council Passed a Resolution Last
Night Providing for Execution of
a Five-Year Contract with the
Dunmore Electric Light Company
at $82.50 Per Light Ordinance
Annulling Street Railway Fran
chise Introduced Fire Company
Ordinance Defeated.
The council met In special session last
evening with all members present. A
resolution wus introduced by Mr. Mc
Allister, providing for the execution of
a contract with the Dunmore Electric
Light company for lighting the streets
of the borough for a term of five years,
for the sum of $82.30 per light per year,
lights to be furnished the borough
building and hose houses for $50 per
year. This was passed unanimously.
An ordinance annulling all the rights
and privileges given the Olyphant and
WInton Traction company was intro
duced by Mr. Brogan, and passed first
and second reading. It is claimed that
the company has refused to live up to
its part of the agreement, made when
the franchise was given, In regards to
furnishing free lights on Blakely street
and planking Its rails.
Ordinance No. 89, known us the fire
company ordinance, was defeated on
third reading, Messrs. McAllister and
Doudlcan only voting In favor of It.
Had It passed It would have thrown
the Anthracite company out of the fire
department nnd only allowed each
company thirty-five members, as well
as providing that the chief of the de
partment must have been an active
member for five years and making his
term of office three years Instead of
one, as heretofore.
There were no bids received for the
$35,000 Issue of sewer bonds, and no ac
tion was taken. The chances are that
the sewer question will not trouble the
people again this year, If It ever does
again In Its present form.

THE IDEAL STUDENT.
His Qualities Denned Concisely by
the Late Cecil Rhodes.
Flora Ills Ms-t "Will And Tcitampil. ,
My desire being that the students whoi
shall be elected to'the scholarships shall
not be merely bookworms, I direct that
In the ejection of (i student to u.scholar-'
ship regard shall bo had to (I his lit
erary and scholastic attainments, (II)
his fondness of and success In manly
outdoor sports, such as cricket, foot
ball, and the like: (HI) his qualities of
manhood, truth, courage, devotion to
duty, sympathy for the protection of
the weak, kindliness, unselfishness, and
fellowship, and (Iv) his exhibition dur
ing schooldays of moral force or cnar
acter and of Instincts to lead and to
take an Interest in his schoolmates, for
those latter attributes will be likely In
afterlife to guide hlni to esteem the per
formance of public duties as his high
est aim. As mere suggestions for the
guidance of those who will have the
choice of students for the scholarships,
I record that (1) my Ideal (Uulliled stu
dent would combine these four nuullli
cations in the proportions of three
tenths for the Hist, two-tenths for the
second, three-tenths Tor the thlrtL and
two-tenths for the fourth quallllcatlon,
so that, according to my Ideas, If tho
maximum niimbci of marks for any
scholarship were 'JUO, they would be ap
portioned as follows 80 to each of the
tlrst ami third mialillcatlons and 40 to
each of the second and fourth qualifica
tions: (II) thu marks for the several
qualifications would be awarded Inde
pendently as follows, (that Is to say),
the marks for the first qualification by
examination, for the second and third
qualifications, respectively, by ballot by
the fellow-students of tho candidates,
and for the fourth qualification by the
head master of the candidate's school,
and (III) tho results of the awards (that
Is to say, tho marks obtained by each
candldato for each qualllleatlon) would
be sent as soon us possible for consid
eration to the trustees or to some per
son or persons appointed to receive the
same, and the person or persons so ap
pointed would ascertain by averaging
the marks In blocks of 20 marks each of
all candidates the best Ideal qualified
students.
