TWO TRUANT
OFFICERS NOW
MARTIN JOYCE HAS A FEMALE
ASSISTANT.
Mrs. Anna M. Ousick Was Appointed
Last Night by the School Board.
More Salary Increases Approved.
Several New Teachers Appointed.
Compensation of the city Controller
Increased from $800 to $1,000 a
Year Dispute Over the Selection
of an Architect.
The teachers' committee of tho school
board sprung somewhat of a surprise
on some of the controllers last night
by recommending the appointment of
Mrs. Anna Cuslck as truant ofneer, to
assist Martin Joyce in the dlfllcult tnsk
of corralling the youngsters Who run
away from school. Sonic opposition to
tho plan developed, but Mrs, Cuslck
."wits llnnlly appointed, and It was de
cided to pay her nt the rate of $-10 a
month.
After the committee's report had been
presented by Chairman Barker, Dr.
O'Mnllcy explained that the duties of
Truant Offlcer Joyce have becoihe very
onerous of late and that the need of an
assistant is imperative. Female truant
otlicers are no novelty, he said. They
are to be found ln Chicago and muny
other large cities.
Mr. Jennings said that there are
places where a male truant officer can
not go, but where It Is necessary that
some one acting In such a capacity
should go. Mr. Evans characterized
the whole iiffalr as "a strange proceed
ing," and moved that the matter be
laid on the table. Before this motion
was put, Mr. Eynon said that if the
board kept on It would be necessary to
have another bond Issue next spring
to meet deficiencies. The motion to lay
on the tabic was lost, by the following
vote:
Yeas Christmas, Francois, Kynon,
Welsh, Hand, Jayne, Evans, Sclirlefcr,
Barker 0.
Nays II. J. O'Mallcy, Murphy, Roche,
Dr. O'Malley, Robinson, Walsh, Jennings,
Langan, Rlef, Leonard, Gibbons 11.
The recommendation of the commit
tee was then adopted and Mrs. Cusick's
salary fixed at $40 per month.
RESIGNATIONS PRESENTED.
The resignations of Miss Myrtle O.
Perry, of No. 28, and of Miss Alice
Evans, of No. 13, were presented by
Chairman Barker, of the teachers'
committee, and accepted. JThe follow
ing new appointments were made:
Miss Lillian O'Donnell, Miss Kate L.
Mawn and Miss Catherine E. Gibbons,
all for No. 22. Miss Kate Larkln w.ib
transferred from No. 23 to No. 20, and
Miss Margaret Ruddy from No. 20 to
No. 23. The salary of Miss Angela
Blewltt, assistant Instructor in draw
ing, was Increased from $70 to $80 on
recommendation of the committee.
Several more salary raises were rec
ommended by tho high and training
committee and approved. Hiss Hicks,
Miss Cliff and Miss Mason were allowed
$5 a month additional each, and Miss
Maigaret Durkin was permanently
employed as assistant teacher of Eng
lish. Eugene II. Fellows, a recent
graduate of Cornell university, was
temporarily nppolntod assistant teach
er of the higher mathematics and lan
guages at the high school, with the un
derstanding that the appointment Is
to be made permanent If his services
prove satisfactory.
An important recommendation made
by the committee and approved by the
board, provides that hereafter no per
son shall be appointed ns teacher at
tho high school except graduates of
either a college or university of rec
ognized standing. This rule will not
apply to the commercial department.
The finance committee recommended
that Controller Costello be allowed
$1,000 a year for his work for the school
district. The controller has been re
ceiving $600 a year, but It was ex
plained that the work is becoming so
burdensome of late that one clerk's
time Is entirely occupied with It. The
'committee's recommendation wus ap
proved.
ARCHITECT FOR THE ANNEX.
Chairman Jennings, of the high and
training committee, stated that the
members had been unable to agree on
an architect to prepare the plans for
the annex to the High school, and had
decided to leave tho matter to the de
cision of the board. A vote wns taken,
resulting as follows: G. N. Edeson, 10;
John A. Duckworth, 8; T. J. Lacey, 2.
President Gibbons expressed himself as
being n wee bit doubtful whether Mr.
Edeson could be properly culled tho
choice of the board, Inasmuch as ho
had received one short of a majority
of the votes of nil the members pres
ent. Someone moved that Mr. Edeson
be tho unanimous choice of the board,
but Mr. Welsh objected, He suld, after
President Gibbons had declared Mr.
Edeson selected, that he proposed to
contest the matter. Mr. WoIbIj Is a
supporter of Mr. Duckworth.
It was decided to conduct a special
examination for entrance to the High
school during tho present week for tho
accommodation of those who have nl
ready failed to pass and for all others
who may desire to take It.
Mr. Evans complained that a num
ber of children from Lackawanna
township applied for admission to No.
13 school yesterday, Mr, Langan re
marked that tho township schools last
year were only half full, the children
being -desirous of going to tho better
bchool within the city limits. Inasmuch
as the township defaulted last year in
tho payment of tuition for scholars at
tending No. 13, It was decided by the
board that no pupil from tho township,
should be admitted, this year except on
payment of $15 In advance, the sumo
to bo for tho entire year,
A letter was read from John C Keys
again calling tho attention of the board
to the manifold advantages of light
ning lods. Mr. Keys endeavored to In
terest tho board In lightning rods about
two years ago, but foiled. His latest
communication was referred to the
building committee,

Two Men Employed at the Mt. Pleas

Michael and Thomas Flynn, of
Wllkcs-Burre, who are employed at tho
Mt. Pleasant colliery, were fired upon,
supposedly by strikers' pickets, yester
day morning.
They received a telegram that their
sister was dying and started for their
home. Just after they left the colliery,
several shots were fired at them. They
did not wait to inquire who did the
shooting, but broke Into a run for the
depot.
District President Nicholls, on Sat
urday, received a letter signed "George
W. Richardson, Scranton, Pa." It was
filled with abuse, and, according to Mr.
Nicholls' views, emanated from some
anarchist. He refused to publish the
contents, because of Its being indecent
in part. Though he believes the name
signed to the letter is a fictitious one,
he gave out the following for publica
tion: Scranton, Pa., Sept. 8. 1902.
If tho person (or anarchist I suppose)
who sent mo an indecent, ungentlemanly
and abiiBlvo letter Saturday, nnd signed
It George XV. Richardson, will be manly
enough to acquaint me with his nddiess,
I shall call on his to prove his state

Vice President E. E. Loomls, general
manager of the Delaware, Lackawanna
ahd Western coal department, was In
the city yesterday, and had a confer
ence with all his superintendents, gen
eral and district. Usually theso con
ferences are held on Tuesday. It was
given out that the reason the confer
ence was advanced one day was be
cause Mr. Loomls would not bo able
to come tomorrow.
The Manvllle and Voh Storch break
ers were not worked yesterday. They
will be started up again today.
The special correspondent of the En
gineering and Mining Journal, who Is
watching the anthracite coal strike for
that publication, in the current number
says: , ,
There have been no material develop
ments In the strike situation during tho
week. Tho operators are gaining ground
slowly but perceptibly. The aggresslvo
body of the strikers are showing a bold
front, but thero'ls an undercurrent of un
easiness and despondency among the
more thoughtful and lesponsible miners
which they, cannot and do not, as a mat
ter of fact, try to conceal. The distribu
tion of the strike fund goes on, but the
nmoutit of tangible relief which It is
btingtng to the men who, as a class,
earned from JU0 to $100 a month may bo
realized from the fact that the ticket
issued to an unmarried man is good far
store provisions for $1,50 for two weeks,
and that of a married man ranges for tho
same period from $.! to $1.30, uccoiding to
the size of his family, his standing In tho
union, the possibility of his defection, and
other personal factors which a system of
systematic espionage has placed in the
hands of the distributing stuff.
The review of the anthracite coal
trade in the same number has this:
It Is dlfllcult to give any Idea of the
actual state of prices. There is no whole
sale market upon which to base quota
tions. From Now York yards, houso coal
is reported to be selling at $12 and $13
In some cases even higher. Some dealers
have none to sell, while those who have
refuse to deliver in moro than ton lots,
In factories and ofllco and apartment
buildings, tho use of soft coal now seems
very general.
A mass meeting of mine workers will
be held-tomorrow afternoon on Spen

BIG RUSH OP PUPILS.
They Sought Admission to the Pub
lic Schools of the City Yester
dayBuildings Overcrowded.
The public schools opened yesterday,
after tho summer vacation, with tho
largest enrollment of pupils ever re
corded. From all over the city came
reports of overcrowded rooms, and In
the suburbs It was no uncommon thing
for a room arranged to accommodate
forty-eight to have as high as sixty
five or seventy pupils.
The big enrollment is duo to tho
strike. Hundreds of Idle breaker boys,
drivers, door tenders and the like, pre
suming that the strike will continue
for some time yet, entered school, with
a view of making the most of tho op
portunity for an education afforded
them by the strike.
It la probable that a number of an
nexes will be opened and extra teachers
employed to take care of the over
flow. Three new buildings and five now
kindergartens were opened yesterday.
The new buildings aref In the First,
Sixth nnd Twenty-first wards. Tho
new kindergartens are located in build
ings Nos. 10, 14, 16 and 29, and the
Jewish synagogue, on Linden street.
The High schol opened with an at
tendance of nearly 1,200, the freshman
class alone having BOO members. The
training school also showed an In
creased attendance. Among those to
enroll were six graduates of St. Ce
cilia's academy.
The parochial and private schools
opened yesterday. .At all the Catholic
churches Sunday, announcement was
made that parents should not keep
their children home from school be
cause of inability to pay tho tuition.
Controller Murphy, of the Sixth
ward, announced at ln"st night's meet
ing of the board of control that a num
ber of breaker boys had been refused
admission at No, 12 school. Ho wanted
the board to pass a motion granting
breaker boys permission to attend
school. Nearly every member present
chorused that this wns not-necessary,
because such boys have the same rights
as other pupils. A motion was finally
passed directing all teachers to admit
all pupils between the ages of 6 and 21
years presenting themselves for in
struction. FREE SWIMMING POOL.
This Week Will Decide Whether or
Not the City Is to Have It.
Plans Are Prepared.
Director of Public Works John E.
Roche stated yesterday that this week
will determine whether or not this city
will have a free swimming pool. At
present there does not appear to be the
least doubt that the gentleman who
generously offered to donate tho pool Is
going to stand by his word, and esti
mates are being prepared of the exact
cost. These will be submitted next
Tuesday or Wednesday.
Tho original estlmatp made by Archi
tect Edgerton that $10,000 would cover
the entire cost hns proved to fall rather
short of the real figures. Superintend
ent of Building Inspection F. L. Brown
has been asked to furnish an estimate
on the cost of the superstructure, and
Superintendent of the Bureau of En
gineering Phillips Is at work on gen
eral plans nnd specifications. Contrac
tor Conrad Schroeder will submit nn
estimate of the cost of contractor's
work.
Director Roche Is not entirely satis
fled with tho results of his trip to vari
ous largo cities, for the purpose of ex
amining public baths, and It is likely
that he will make a supplementary trip
to New York, Monday, to see certain of
tho baths of the big city, which havo
been heralded as model in every par
ticular. Director Roche believes in
giving the city .a pool and baths which
will bo model In every particular. Tho
pool Is to bo 130 foot long by 50 wide,
and In addition there will be eight
shower baths of th'o most modern
equipment, and a number of other
bathing facilities.

seventh in the list, advanced sufficient
ly to tie with C. J. Clark, of Peckville,
for thirty-third place. By reason of
the Peckville Mr. Clark having held

SETTLING OF THE SUBFAOE.
Water Wain nnd HoUse Pipes Were
Made to Feel Its Effect,
The ground In the region of the cor
ner of Wyoming aVentle and spruce
street has been settling for tho past
few days, and, yesterday, had sunk to
such ah extent that one of the water
mains was broken;' Tho break was re
paired last night.
Beginning with Saturday, the wator
pipes In tho Traders' bank building be
gan to pull, downwards, and the move
ment continued gradually until yester
day, in tho building, occupied on tho
ground floor by Arbor Cafe, the' tension
broke one of tho pipes on the top Moor
and Hooded tho building. The settling
had apparently subsided, last night.
Settling; of tho grotind at this point
Is a not uncommon occurrence, It Is
not tho result of n mine cave-In Jiut of
tho swampy nnture of tho ground.
Several times tho pavement and curb
ing havo had to bo repaired on account
of the settling. There Is absolutely no
danger to tho buildings thereabouts as
they havo their foundations on bed
rock.
