Philadelphia Ledger. "According to State Superintendent Schaeflbr's Interpretation of the school law any township that does not have a high school must pay the tuition of schol ars who have passed the district school and wish to enter a bigh school, even If the high school is located In another county. If a township has a high school It does not have to pay tuition for schol ars who wish to go to other schools even though such schools offer a more ad vanced curriculum which the student wishes to tako advantage of." The fore going is from tho Warren Mirror, but we cannot vouch lor Its authenticity. However, 'interested township school boards can readily verify it by writing the Superintendent of Public Instruction at Uarrisburg. An exchange very aptly remarks: Heading, writing and spelling we say it regretfully are no longer thoroughly taught in the public schools. Young men and women who (seek Instruction in telegraphy, stenography and typewriting, although of good ability and general in formation are lamentably deficient in the lundamontals of the English language. They especially caunot spell. Out of 30 or 40 words in ordinary use sometimes one-half or even two-thirds are mis spelled. This nearly every nowspaper publisher will stand ready to vouch for by experience. The common schools m longer teach the common rudiments aud especially do they neglect reading. Girls and boys attend iug public schools should be instructed to read aloud, in the use of their vocal organs not only In reading, but in speaking and reciting. Young ladies and young gentlemen, should pay more attention to the common rudiments. Our early gardeners are getting In their work on the printer these days.

We suppose both these speedy gardeners were telling the humble truth although neithor one left any evidence of It on the editor's table. The blackberry crop la practically doomed, the continuous dry weather having left the berries in about the same condition they were three weeks ago about half grown, shriveled and brown. It is doubtful whether rain would now do any good in resuscitating the popular berry. The same may be said of the chestnut crop which will scarcely be worth mentioning, the blossoms, which promised an abundant yield two weeks ago, having dried up and dropped off, leaving only hero and there a burr bang ing to the boughs. The fine new band and gang mill at Endeavor is making satisfactory progress toward completion, and It is expected to have the machinery all In motion by the latter part of September. Work of such prodigious proportions necessarily goes slow, but there has been no lagging in this instauce. Wbencomploted we doubt whether the state will have a finer equipped plant in all respects. It will have a capacity of a hundred thousand feet per day, and will be capable of turn ing out the longest of material. Connect ed with tho mill, although Independent of it, will be an electric lighting plant capable of lighting the entire town and furnishing power to run much of the machinery used in turning out the fin ished product, such as the planer, lath mill, etc. On the whole it will bs a lum bering plant worth going miles to see. Beautiful Girl Takes Poison In Mistake. The Los Angeles, California, Examiner of July 12tb publi-hes an account of the death, together with a portrait, of beauti ful Edna Frances Shuuk. Considerable mystery surrounds her taking away. She was aged 10 years, and was some what of an invalid. Horace W. Bolton, a very respectable young man, made bis home with the Shunk family, 423 Cali fornia street, and was to have made the fair young girl his wife. During a gen eral shifting around of the family bis room was changed to another part of the house and Miss Edna became the occu pant ot the room he vacated. By a sin gular mischance be left a bottle of carbol ic acid in the room, and it stood within arm's reach of the girl's bedside, and It is the general beliel that she took a dose of it in mistake for another medicine she had been taking. The young man up braids himself most severely for bis "criminal carelessness" as he calls it, in being the unwitting cause of the death of his sweetheart. The girl was the daugh ter of Isaao W. Shunk, who was reared to young manhood in Hickory township, Forest oouuty, and who is well remem bered by many of our citizens as having a few years ago resided in Kinesley twp., where he followed his avocation as car penter. The tragio death of the young lady was a shock to all who knew her, and tears flowed from hundreds of eyes at her funeral when ber classmates in school sang the prayer she bad written upon ber pillow-slip before she died.

The Warreu Times says that Judge Lindsey, in tho Rockwell cose, decides that "Mining, gas, oil and oilier mineral rights cannot be assessed separately irom the property," This decision, if it stands the test of the higher courts, will be very far reaching and important iu its results in the oil producing counties of this state.

TIONKSTA 11, ROCKY OROVE 5. The Rocky Grove team, of Franklin, was here last Saturday and tbe game they put up was just a little bit "rocky," consequently Tionesta won an easy vic tory. Bank head pitched his usual steady game aud tho visitors could not bunch their hits on him. His support was good. Dun in ire was bit hard, Tionesta getting 12 hits in six innings, but bis support was bad. When Hughes went into the box In the seventh tho team took a brace and played snappy ball. Tbe borne team had their batting clothes on, however, and got four more hits In the last two Innings. Tbe brightest feature of tbe game was tbe fine work of Umpire Leibrich. Not a siu of an objection was made to bis decisions. Tbe visitors were a gentlemanly lot of boys and inlormed Manager Landers that they had received the best treatment here lrom the umpire and crowd that they had ever received away from home.

BaDkhead'a magnificent pitching proved to be a big stumbling block to the heavy-bitting Bisons, tbe best they could get being four bits, and one of these beiug decidedly on the scratchy ordor. At the same time his support was grand, the boys never put ting up a better all-round game. In fact, Bankhead would have a shutout to his credit bad be not made a wild pitch in the first inning, on which Franklin scored from third, where be bad gone on bis bit and a sacrifice. After that it was about one, two three for tbe visitors to the end of the game. In tbe fifth tbey got a man on third, in the seventh a man on second, and Russell's triple with one down made things look Interesting in the ninth but tbe next two were easy outs. Babcock pitched a fine game for the visi tors and bis suppoit, except in the sev enth, was good. Tionesta (.ot ber first run in the second on Hagerty'a double and two errors. We earned one in tbe sixth on Arner's single, his steal of sec ond and Hagerty'a second two-bagger. In the seventh the visitors went up in tbe air and before they got back to earth again we had chased four runs over the plate on a hit, a sacrifice, a base on balls, a stolen base and three errors.

Hagerty is a "bad mau" at bat when the bases are occupied. N. A. C. defeated the Iroquois 2-1 and 4-0, and lost the third 3-1. Iroquois lost to Franklin Manifolds Tuesday 12-4. When "Our Billy" has his bright little smilo doing extra turn and his left foot up iu the air, as he had Monday, there Is plenty of trouble in store for tho batters who are trying to hit that little round thing he's throwing at 'em. Tho fielding features of the game were a lightning double play by Weaver aud Hagerty in the third, Foreman's catch of Russell's fly in the fourth, Lawrence's gutting Russell at first base on his bunt in the seventh, afld Brand's catch of Fore man's fly in the sixth. The visitors, having been up ngainst Lawrence in the games with N. A. C, had respect for his throwing whip anil look no chancps. On the other hand Tionesta took every chance offered to steal and gotaway with evory one. That's playing the game, hoys. Umpire Leibrich, of Titusville, again demonstrated that lie is "it" with tho indicator. The only kick mailo was by the visitors in tbe ninth and that wasn't serious. It costs good money to gut him and Manager Landers deserves the hearty financial support aud commendation of (lie patrons ol the game. Manager Liesiuuur, of the Iroiiuois. has a fine lot ol players with him, live of them being of last year's team. Thoy were a clean and gentlemanly lot of boys, confirming the gisid impression they lull last year. And dou't overlook the lact that they can play ball.
