Harrisburg School Sketches BY J. HOWARD WERT - So * 2 —How the Black Horse Tavern Became the Harris Park School Building. Some Faithful Teachers or the Cast. Some Small School Buildings That Have Passed Away. Elections In tlie Old time School houses In the last number I told of the time when the Boas and Verbeke school buildings stood forth In the freshness of their youth as the "ne plus ultra" of school architecture. Yet was not their erection accomplished without fierce opposition. The North Ward School Board came In for a vast deal of censure, for the tribe of • kickers" is no evolution of our present high pressure civilization, but its members were as numerous and as clamorous in the sixties of the last century as now. "What in the name of sense," said these croakers of a former day, "is the use of building an enormous schoolhouse up there in Billy Ver hcke's marshes where nobody much lives and where there won't be much of a town for fifty years to come?" But Dr. J. H. Fager, Daniel D. Boas, A. Boyd Hamilton, Dr. C. Seiler, Charles Muench and their associates were not the men to be swayed from line of duty by impetuous clamor. Soon the good seed they had sown in the erection of these buildings bore fruit in other portions of our city. The Black Horse Tavern and the Harris Park School In the list of school buildings of 1874, published in the last number of this series, appears the name Harris Park. But it was not the Harris Park building of to-day, but a large, ram bling frame building, on the same site, that had been known for genera tions as the Black Horse Tavern, which had been bought some years before for school purposes. A famous hostelry was this same Black Horse Tavern in the davs when the river was brisk with arks and rafts; when the Conestoga wagons filled the pikes, being ferried over the Susquehanna at this point as they wended their slow way to distant Phil-, adelphia; when other Conestogas, filled with ' household stuff," were crossing the river here, pressing on, from thick ly settled Chester, and Lancaster, and Berks, to found new homes and woo fortune amid the valleys of the Blue Ridge or along the headwaters of the Ohio; when daily the drovers were conducting vast herds of cattle through Harrisburg on the wearisome march to the seaboard cities. One of the Black Horse landlords of this olden time was a certain Simeon Westfall, who had once been among the staunchest of the teamsters who crossed the Alleghenies to far away Pittsburgh. His daughter, a sunny lass, sported joyously through the halls of the busy hotel. A number of years ago the Harrisburg papers chronicled the celebration of her golden wedding as the wife of Emanuel S. German. In 1874 the former hotel building was no longer in the days of its glory. In its dilapidation it had become both woe-begono and dangerous. A very few years later the good seed of ex ample sown in the erection of the Boas and 'Verbeke buildings bore fruitage In its disappearance forever, to be re placed by the present commodious Harris Park school building. A lYilmte to the Harris Park Teachers But the teachers in this relic of for mer days labored as honestly and earnestly with the sturdy lads and smiling lassies of the First Ward as if they had been located in a palace with every convenience that the builder's art could give them. These teachers in 1874 were Missefe Angie M. Patton and Lizzie Buehler, both married sub sequently to prominent citisens of Harrisburg; Miss Annie M. Freaner. afterwards the wife of Lieutenant Howard D. Potts, himself one of the most efficient school directors Harris burg ever had; John L. Bates. Isaac- Lloyd and Frederick U. Worley. The three gentlemen last mentioned, after long and honorable careers as! educators, have all passed over the | river. Mr. Bates at the time of his I death was an alderman in our city, I while Mr. Worley had long held a re- I Harrisburg Stenographers Are & & ±* Honored by Their Fellows To Meet at Gettysburg Next Year; Guests of Hershey Park Management Today V, . •" ' '.J CAPTAIN FRANK E.

Small Sciiooi Buildings There was a time in Uariisburg, as in many other Pennsylvania towns, when either supposed economy or bad judgment made it akin to a religious duly to place all school buildings in alleys where land was cheapest; and the narrower and dirtier the alley the better. That time had passed in 1874. But there were still many small build ings used for school purposes, some of which at least were poorly ventilated and not well equipped for school use. Three of these in close proximity were the Front street school, at the corner of Front and Mary streets; the Chest nut street building, at the corner of Chestnut and Dewberry, and the Ger man building, on a portion of the pres ent site of the Stevens building in Chestnut street between Kront and Second. The two first mentioned have long since ceased to be school prop erties. The teachers in the little Front street building in 1874 were Misses Jennie Robinson and Emma F. Hunter. Many, many years have elapsed since weeping friends passed before the colfln ol Miss Hunter as she lay in her last dreamless rest in the audience room of Grace Methodist Church. It has been but a few months since Miss Robinson went to her re ward. Both were noble teachers of whom it could be truly said: None knew them but to love them, None named them but to praise." Elections in Sclioollioiises It was a rule of ethics in the olden 'time Harrisburg to hold all elections in schoolhouses if the election district was so fortunate as to have one. The "Young America" of that day never objected, for all schools were closed on election day and the youth who was so fortunate as to be enrolled as a scholar in a room used for polling purposes got a double holiday, as the next day was devoted by the janitor to removing the tobacco quids, cigar butts and other evidences of enthusi asm and patriotism of the voters who had saved the country the day before. The building at Chestnut and Dew berry was long the polling place of th>> undivided Third Ward, and there I have seen such staunch Democrats as B. P. Meyers and Frank Boehmer put up strenuous battle for their party against S. S. Chllds, Charles H. Berg ner and other foemen worthy of their steel. Wti ; |H^H" COL. H. C.

I Joyful Anticipation of Motherhood There is apt to be a latent apprehension Of distress to mar the complete Joy of expectation. But this is quite overcome by the advice of so many women to use "Mother a Friend." This is an external application designed to so lubricate the muscles and to thus so relieve the pres sure reacting on the nerves, that the natural strain upon the cords and liga ments is not accompanied by those severe pains said to cause nausea, morning sick ness and many Jocal distresses. This splendid embrocation la known to a multi tude of mothers. Many people believe that those remedies which have stood the test of time, that | have been put to every trial under the varying conditions of age, weight, general health, etc., may be safely relied upon. And Judging by the fact that "Mother's Friend" has been in continual use since our grandmother's earlier years and Is known throughout the United States it may be easily Inferred that it is some thing that women talk about and gladly recommend to prospective mothers. "Mother's Friend" is prepared only in our own laboratory and is sold by drug gists everywhere. Ask for a bottle to-day and write for a special book for expectant mothers.
