SCRANTON, Doe. 10— Tlio commis
sion having to do with the anthracite
coal strike heard testimony this morn
ing relative to tlio attendance of the
children ot miners in the public schools
of this city and county.
George \V. Phillips, superintendent
of schools in Scranton, the next wit
ness. presented figures showing that
ill schools in mining neighborhoods
more children attended night school
than they did during the day. In one
or two schools in the mining neighbor
hood not a miner's child attended day
sessions, he said. Mr. Phillips said
that almost without exception,miners'
children left school before reaching
their 12th year. Night schools were
attended almost exclusively by min
ers' children, Phillips said.
The following questions were answ
ered by Mr. Phillips:
Speaking generally, the miners'
children do not enter the higher grades
of tlio Grammar and High Schools of
this city? A. The better way to an
swer that would be to take the enroll
ment of the Higli School and from
that take the number of miners' chil
dren. There are 1,004 children enroll
ed in tlio High School, and about 10
per cent, of these are miners' children
distributed through the different
classes.
Q. These are all minors' children,
this 10 per cent? A. Yes sir: all
miners' children. In the senior class
there are, out of 113, nine children of
minors. In the junior or third year,out
of 133, five children are of this clas.~. In
the sophomore or second year, out
of 135, twenty-six are children of
miners, and in the freshman year wo
have 518 in that class; part of these,
however, were left over from last year;
sixty-one are children whoso parents
are employed in and about the mines.
That makes a total of 101 out of
1,004 down to Grammar.
Q. How is the attendance of min
ers' children in the other grades? A.
In the first three years of our schools,
55 por cent, ot the children of the city
are in these three years; 2i5 per cent,
are in the next three years; and 12
per cent, are in the three higher
grades, or the three grades below the
High School.
Q. 1 ell me, professor, about the
compulsory lawr A. It says no child
under 13 years shall be employed in
any factory, mine or industry. Then
again it says every child between 13
and Imust attend school all the
time, but if they can read and svrite
English they can be employed.
Q. How cau you enforce the com
pulsory law? A. We have two oftic
ers.
Q. At what age do you try to make
children goto school? A. We try to
make them go up to 12 years.
Q. Now, the compulsory educa
tional la>v, as I think it is called, you
do not exactly enforce that? A. Wo
try to.
Two school superintendents, one
from Olyphant and the other at the
head of the school system in Luzerne
county, were called and testified that
miners* cmirtivn were taken from
school about the twelfth year and put
in the breakers as a rule.

NATIONAL GUARD S
GOOD SHOWING
Tho Twelfth Regiment stands
seventh in the National Guard accord
ing to the regimental ratings of the
inspection in Camp Goorge G. Meade,
Gettysburg,during the annual encamp
ment last summer.
Only regimental ratings are given
in the advance sheets of the Inspector
General's report so that it is impossi
ble to compare company ratings.
The complete regimental ratings fol
low :
First regiment,9s.sß.
Second regiment, 89.57.
Third regiment, 92.52.
Fourth regiment, 90.52.
Fifth regiment, 90.21.
Sixth regiment, 90.80.
Eighth regiment, 92.07.
Ninth regiment, 91.34.
Tenth regiment, 90.9(5.

Eighteenth regiment, 88.H0.
First City Troop, 9(5.00.
Second City Troop, 95.88.
Sheridan Troop, 95.55.
Governor's Troop, 94.
"The personal appearance and mili
tary bearing of the troops at this in
spection," reports Inspector General
Sweeney, "weie highly creditable.
Some commands, however, would have
been greatly improved had all men
been shaved and the hair and beards
closelv trimmed. The uniforms, in
the main, gave evidence of careful
handling. During the inspection com
manding officers of companies were
cautioned to give personal attention
to the method usod in cleaning same
in order to avoid unnecessary bleach
ing. Some officers appeared without
authority in nnregnlation campaign
hats, the wearing of which was dis
continued immediately upon their at
tention being called thereto. In the
opinion of the Inspector General,
officers should bo permitted to wear a
hat of better grade.
"The bearing of the m»u in rank>i
was altogether admirable. In a ma
jority of the organizations there ex
isted an "esprit du corps" never be
foro witnessed by the Inspector Gen
eral, and this accounts largely for the
good results noted at the inspections.
It was evident that more attention
had been paid to tho "Set up" of the
men, in fact the soldierly bearing was
in general so excellent as to call forth
the highest encomiums from officers
of the army present.
"At the review which preceded tho
inspection of personal appearanco,rel
atively few errors were observed—the
ceremony being rendered by a ma
jority of the troops in excellent form.
"The discipline of the Guard dur
ing the t ntiro period was commend
able, but few infractions of the reg
ulations were noted, while the gen
eral deportment of the men was both
gentlemanly and soldierly. There is
still, however, too much freedom in
intercourse between officers and men.
For disciplinary reasons, it is irnpera
tive that military relations supercede
tho social relations of citizenship
whenever tho members of a command
are engaged In military service, this
holds for all occasions that call for
the wearing of the uniform of the
state. Indeed, at all times, an ofti
cer's course should be such a- to add
to the i.vu iTrrr, in
crease his efficiency in discipline and
enhance his personal influence as a
worthful citizen and a guardsman,
proudly appreciative of the honor and
responsibility that attend the holding
of a military commission in this great
Commonwealth.
Foils a Deadly Attack.
"My wife was so ill that physicians
was unable to help her," writes M. M
Austin, of Winchester. Ind., "bnt was
completely cured by Dr. King's New
Life Pills.'' They work wonders in
stomach and liver troubles. Cure con
stipation, sick headache. 25c at Paules

Constable's Big Fees,
Does it pay to be a constable in
Shamokin 'i Does it pay for the tax
payers to elect some of their constables
in Shamokin? The former question we
will answer yes. The latter no.
It is about time the taxpayers of
Shamokin and Northumberland county
learn how their money is uselessly
spent in paying useless constable fees.
Michael O'Leary, constable of the
Fifth Ward of Shamokin, has drawn
from the county treasury in fees for
the four terms of court, this year, Fe
bruary, May, September and December
the enormous sum of $3,(553.20 ;for Feb
ruary ccurt $411.37, May [and Septem
ber $1,205.(55 and December $H31,84j
Dismissed cases $830.9(5. His fees
amounted to almost as much as the
judge's salary. A very nice yearly
salary f«V a ward constable.
This is a most amazing state of
affairs. The method of running up
this amount of tees is by tho consta
bles chasing every petty quarrel that
happens and hissing them onto sue.
It is not right and the quicker the
taxpayers enter a protest against sticli
amounts being paid to the constables,
thu sooner will the county have more
money to spend on improvements and
get out of debt.
If each constable in the county was
to receive a like amount it would cost
the county about $30(5,868.80 a sear
for her constables alone.—S'lain.ikiii
Dispatch.
A force of men is now tit work at
Koariug Creek making an extended
addition to the track and changing
the wagon road.
The work was started early in tho
spring but owing to the strike was
delayed until about three weeks ago.
Since then 't has steadily progressed.
The wagon road which was former
ly between the railroad and river is
being used for the new switch and the
road has been transferred to the other
side of the track. The new switch will
ho one mile and a half in length. It
will not be finished this winter.

AT THE THEATRE
Congressman Charles 13. Landis, of
Indiana, is about the brightest of the
men who have recently entered the
House. Of all the new men in Con
gress ho is the only one who has made
a record for oratory of the kind that
tells. He did not jump in at the be
ginning of his first term, in order to
catch the attention of the House, but
he bided his time till something came
up in which he was really interested
and concerning which he knew he had
something to say. Then ho glided in
to the debate and captured everybody.

The appearance of L. W. Wash
burn's Big Minstiel enterprise at the
Opera House on Saturday afternoon
and evening will introduce to the
public an innovation in modern Min
strelsy. It is an absolute novelty from
start to finish. Innovation after in
novation follow each other in rapidsuc
cossion. Nono but the best perform
ers that money could procure have
been engaged. The first part, ward
robe, scenic effects, novelties, music
ians, singers, dancers and performers
have all been carefully selected, to
make this the finest and host equipped
minstrel company ever organized.
Every one is an artist or a star in his
specialty. Minstrel shows are all very
much the same, and to s<'« one is to
see all. To get away from the monot
ony of this, Mr. Wn-liburn h.-is ex
pended much'money, time and brains,
till today lm stands without an equal
in Minstrelsy.
fc ia v»
The standard roportoire organization
of America will appear for 3 nights
at the Opera House beginning on Mon
day next. The above is the title of
the Gibney—Hoeffler Company, a
company which has been packing
theatres to the doors, at every city
they have visited. The company is
composed of IT first class artists, and
the plays are put on in excellent style.
The list of plays include such strong
dramas as "Woman in Black," "Man
of Mystery" and "Down in Maine."
Special scenery is carried and a fine
list of high class vaudeville artists,
direct from Keith's theatres,and Tony
Pastor's Theatre, New York,who work
between the acts. Thereby making a
continuous performance. Don't for
t-I
r»« 112.«
"The Missouri Girl" produces more
genuine, hearty laughter than any
comedy yet written. In connection
with a strong and interesting plot it
contains the most ludicrous situations
ever conceived. The company present
ing the play is fully capable of ex
tracting this fun, and dealing it out
to the public in a most satisfactory
manner. Sadie Raymond retains her
role of Daisy, and is as sprightly as
ever. Fred Raymond will be seen as
Zeke Dobson, and everybody knows
what that means.
A Timely Suggestion.
This is the season of the year when
the prudent and careful housewife
replenishes her supply of Chamber
laiu's Cough Remedy. It is certain
to bo needed before the winter is over
and results are much more prompt and
satiasfactory when it is kept at hand
and given as soon as tlio cold is con
tracted and before it has become settl
ed in the system. In almost every in
stance a severe cold may be warded
off by taking this remedy freely as
soon as the first indication of the
cold appears. There is no danger in
giving it to children for it contains
na harmful substance. It is pleasaut
to take—both adults and children like
it. Buy it and you will get the best.
It always cures. For sale by Panics
& Co., Druggists.
Want Taxation Increased.
The State Grange will petition the
next legislature to increase taxation on
personal and corporate property one
mill for road purposes, by which $2,-
000,000 would be raised, to be disburs
ed by the state, and to permit the
Grange to personally investigate the
enforcement of the anti-oleo law for
the purpose of ascertaining if the law
is carried out.

LETTER CARRIERS
OFTEN DELAYED
Few jvoj>l<» <• i':- ti w!r;f > nt
the letter carriers,ou their rounds, are
delayed by having to ring the door
b !1 aud w.iil while someone washes
the dough off her hands, brushes her
hair,pails down her sleeves and comes
10 open the door and receive the mail.
The cause for delay may uot always
be the same, but the result is identi
cal—the letter carrier's time is wasted
and the postal service is hampered.
Each carrier stops at several hundred
homes, and a moment's delay at each
of sixty doors mea«s an hour lost. In
some cases 25 per cent, of the carrier's
time is thus fritted away. It would
be possible, if every house in Dan
ville had a letter slot, to give better
service 111 the way of deliveries and
collections, which would be of benefit
to all. A good letter slot can be pur
chased for 2o cents, is easily attached
to the door, and every house in the
city should have one.
A Smallpox .Remedy,
The following remedy for smallpox
has been given by a California min
ister :
"I herewith append a recipe which
has been used to my knowledge in
hundreds of cases. It will prevent or
cure smallpox even though the pitt
ings are filling.
"When Jennor discovered cow-pox
in England the world of science hurl
ed an avalanche ot fame upon bis
head; but when the most scientific
school of medicine in the world, that
of Paris, published this lecipe as a
panacea for smallpox, it passed un
heeded. It is as unfailing as fate and
conquer- in every instance. It is
harmless when taken by a well person
It will also euro scarlet fever. Here
it is as I iiave used it to cure my chil
dren of scarlet lever; here it is as I
have used it to '-lire the smallpox.
When learned physicians said that the
patient must die, it cured:
"Sulphate of zinc, one grain; fox
glove, (digitalis) one grain ; half a tea
spoonful of sugar; mix with two table
spoonfuls of water. When thoroughly
mixed add two ounces of water. Take
a spoonful every hour. For children
smaller dose according to age. Either
disease will disappear In twelve hours.
If counties would compel their physi
cians to use this there would lie no
need of pest houses.
"If you value good advice and ex
perience, use this for the terrible dis
ease. "
How to Prevent Croup-
It will be good news to the moth
ers of small children to learn that
croup can ho prevented. The liist
sign of croup is hoarseness. A day or
two before the attack the child becpm
es hoarse. This is soon followed by a
peculiar rough cough. (Jive Chamber
lain's Cough Remedy fieely as soon as
the child becomes hoarse, or evon af
ter the rough cough appears, and it
will dispel all symptoms of croup. In
this way all danger aud anxiety may
be avoided. This remedy is used by
many thousands of mothers and has
never boon known to fail. It is, in
fact the only remedy that can always
bo depended upon and that is pleaasnt
and safe to take. For sale by Paules

i Moreover, while he has none of the

reason the mule does not evince such
is because nothing calls it out. Jack

He makes, moreover, an easy paced,

There is comfort in the knowledge so
often expressed, that Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-
Root, the great kidney remedy fulfills every
wish in curing rheumatism, pain in the
back, kidneys, liver, bladder and every part
of the urinary passage. It corrects inability
to hold water and scalding pain in passing
it, or bad effects following use of liquor,
wine or beer, and overcomes that unpleasant
necessity of being compelled togo often
during the day, and to get up many times
during the night. The mild and the extra
ordinary effect of Swamp-Root Is soon
realized. It stands the highest for its won
