A new blank form has been prepared at
tbe Department of Public instruction for the
annual district reports which calls for the
cost of two additional items of expenditures
not heretofore published in the annual re
port of the department The first of these
items calls for tbe cost of school text books
of tbe district ; the second for the cost of
school supplies other than text-books, in
cluding maps, globes, ic These forms are
sent to the secretaries of all the school boards
in the State. The reporting of these addi
tional items of expense becomes necessary,
nasmuch as the act of 1SV3 requires direct
ors to purchase text-books and supplies at
the expense of their district, snd it there
fore, becomes a legitimate item for pub Ica
tion in the department's annual report for
the current school year. County su)rin
tendents will be notified of this change and
requested also to see that all district reports
are made up in accordance with prescribed
forms.
Abraham Mursert,a former well known
citizen of Shade and Stonycreek townships.
died at Berlin, on Wednesday morning last,
aged 0" years. Tbe manner of bis death
was sudden and startling. He was engaged
at making garden in the lot of Mr. A. C.
Floto and had his foot raised in position to
force the steel ?pade into the earth, when,
without a word of warning, be threw up his
arms and dropped to the ground stone dead.
Mr. Floto was conversing with bim at tbe
time and could not believe that life was ex
tinct in Mursert's body until after a physi
cian bad assured bim that such was the
case.
The deceased was born in Switzerland
and bad served in the army of bis native
country. He came to the United States
shortly before the close of the civil war
aud enlisted in a New York company.
He served until the close of the war. He
was twice married. His first wife
was Miss Leah Helman, of Shade township.
She died about ten years following ber mar
riage. His second wile was Miss Eve Flee
gle, who survives. Mursert was a man of
more than ordinary intelligence. He spoke
three or four languages, all of them fluently.
He was of very con vial habits and was a
frequent visitor in Somerset
Several hundred of the foremost citizens
of Pittsburg and Allegheny have organized
committees to prepare for the 2'.h National
Eocanipment of the Grand Army of tbe
Republic in Pittsburg during the week be
ginning September loth next This promis
es to be tbe largest and most impressive dem
onstration ever witnessed in Western Penn
sylvania. Besides, as it is now twenty-nine
years since the Civil War ended, it is not
probable that the Union vetirans of that
struggle will ever again be massed in such
vast numbers. Already the Committee on
Accommodations has secured free quarters
for 40,000 men, and applications for these
quarters are coming in daily from Posts in
every direction. The railroads last year
carried 203.000 persons to the Encampment
at Indianapolis, and Pitub irg being in a
more populous territory, there is a natural
expectation that this number will be ex
ceeded. Pittsburg councils bave appropriated
$2o,0u0 toward tbe E-icampment Fand and
Allegheny councils $o,00J, while the people
of tbe two municipalities are expected to
subscribe $75,Oo0 to the end that the aflair
may be a thorough success.

Holocaust Narrowly Averted
The " Academy" school buildirg. on Cn
ion street, was on fire Monday afternoon
the third time In the past two or three years
and bad it not been for the opportune ar
rival of Principal Pritts, who bad been pay
ing a visit to the I'nion school building, a
number of lives must bave been sacrificed
When Mr. Pritts entered the main ball of
the building he discovered Games leaping
out Com tbe side of a hot air register. With
out raising an alarm be quietly oned the
door of one of tbe recitation rooms and call
ing three or four of the largest boy pupils
into the ball told them what was tbe matter
and with their assistance extinguished tbe
fire. A few minute more and the fire
would bsve been beyond control and the
frightful scene that must bave followed
with a hundred or more small children In
tbe two upper rooms of the building and
egress by way of the single set of stairs cut
ctf will cause a feeling of honor to creep
over all who read these lines.
We have been informed that the fire re
sulted from closing all of tbe registers in tbe
building, and tbe hot air having no means
of escape soon ignited tbe timbers surround
ing the ball register.
No matter bow it originated tbe mere fact
that this is tbe third fire that bas resulted
from the same beater and bas for a third
time imperiled the lives of hundreds of
school children, is sufficient to show that
some one has blundered. The board of di
rectors can not make too great baste in hav
ing tbe matter investigated, and when it ia
investigated tbe Cruse of tbe trouble should
not be smeared over as on former occasions
but should be repaired in a manner that will
not permit of a recurrence of fire. The
board of directors should give this matter
prompt and personal attention.

THOUSANDS OF MINERS THROW
DOWN THEIR PICKS.
In a Fight for More Pay.
According to the statement of the officials
of tbe I'nited Mine Workers, 225,000 miners
laid down their tools to participate in the
great national strike at noon Saturday.
"the mining of bituminous coal must
absolutely cease at noon to-day," said
President McBride at Columbus, Satur
day morning. "Here are dozens of mail
and telegraph requests for permission to
operate small mines whose product goes to
supply local furnaces and does not reach the
general market To thera I bave replied
that no coal will be permitted to be mined
for any purpose during the strike. It would
simply supply a demand to some degree and
to that extent operate against tbe miners in
their strike. It would be like permitting a
friendly power, because it was friendly, to
furnish an enemy with arms. This la tbe
first time we bave ever made a fight with
these tactics that is, by acting with tbe
organization as a unit and if we can carry
out our purpose the fight against us cannot
long be maintained.
President McBride said be did not think
there was any considerable coal mined
ahead not a large quantity compared with
tbe amount of consumption and stopping
the mines would result very quickly in a
fuel stringency thst would force a settle
ment of the question. He did not fear that
coal from Canada would come in to take
tbe place of American coal.
President McBride said be bad received
a number of very favorable reports from
Pennsylvania and Illinois that morning,
which led him to believe that (here would
be less than 4,000 miners at work in West
ern Pennsylvania next week, excepting in
tbe coke regions, of course, where the miners
do not belong to this organ ization, and not
8,000 in Illinois. By the first of May all
these would be out if the strike was not
ended by that time.
Colcmbcs, O., April 2i The head
quarters of the United Mine Workers of
America was locked to-day. President
John McBride, seen at bis home reading
newspaper accounts of the strike begun
yesterday, talked of the movement He
said :
"The order to strike bas been obeyed just
as we expected. All that we counted on
and more have suspended work. The
Michigan miners, who are not members of
our organization, hsve gone out There are
about 5o0 of them. Eighty-live or 90 per
cent, of all the miners to whose interest it
would be to join the strike bave done so.
The Indiana block miners are sticking to
their contract and will work until May 1.
when it expires. They cannot be blamed."
'What bave you to say of tbe Ohio
miners T' be was asked.
'They seem to have gone out to a man. I
don't know of a single Ohio mine of any
importance that will be in operation this
week. This speaks well for tbe organization
In this State, when it is known that many
of the operators are ready and anxious to
pay the scale demanded and keep on work
ing." President McBride said there was a
mouth's supply of coal mined ahead, and in
some districts the supply was probably
greater. There are now, according to bis
estimate, 5o0,io0 tons of coal on tbe Lake
Erie dock, left over when navigation closed
last fall. This will not last long.
President McBride has received a letter
that Col. W. P. Rend, of Chicago, sent
proposing a conference between miners and
operators. "It is conciliatory in tone," he
said, "and I have received communications
in a similar spirit from operators in Ohio
and Pennsylvania. I have not answered
this letter yet, and shall not until the strike
is under full way and we know just how
we stand. The miners cannot live decently
on less than tbe scale struck for gives.
"Operators in many places are w tiling to
pay the scale, and are anxious to proceed at
once."
'Do yon feel sure that you will be able to
keep your men out in the face of suh in
ducements?"
'I certainly do. There may be a few
small and isolated mines that will resume,
but their product will not affect the strike."
In Pennsylvania the general strike of
miners began Saturday, and the number
quitting work areas estimated in telegrams
to Tbe 7Tn printed Friday. Tne number
of men in the Eighth bituminous district
idle is 5,000. There was no excitement.
The Sixth bituminous district of Pennsyl
vania, comprising about 80 mines along the
Pennsylvania railroad and in northern Cam
bria county, bas C.000 men out. At Ralston,
near Williamsport, 200 men quit. Two
thousand miners at A mot, Antrim, Morris
Run and Fall Brook, in Tioga county, went
out. In tbe Huntingdon and Broad Top
region, as well as in Cumberland county,
the men did not stop, but are likely to.
The East Broad top miners, numbering 300,
joined in tbe strike.
In West Virginia, near Wheeling, and
in tbe Sixth Ohio district directly opposite,
5,0i0 men struck. Kanawha river miners
remained at work.
At Newark, O , 1,000 miners in Jonathan
Creek Valley mines struck. This affected
all mines in the Strailsville district. In the
Zanesville field 1,500 men went out
Reports from other States said 4,000 men
had slopped in Iowa, 500 in Alabama, 3,000
in Tennessee, 500 in Kentueky and 300 in
New York.
