NEW EDUCATION
UW k PUZZLE
Just how the Fair bill,recently pass
ed by the State legislature aud approv
ed by Governor Stuart, will make any
change in the cumpulsory education
law, is something that local educators
are uuable to see. The bill, was in
troduced by Senator Fair, exempts
from the provisions of the compulsory
education law all children between
the ages of 14 aud lfi who are able to
read and write English.
How tins effects the present law is
hard to see. The provisions of the
compulsory education law on this sub
ject are that any child who can read
and write English aud whose parents
take oath that their child is past 14
vears of age is exempted from tho pro
visions of the act.
In the opinion of prominent local
educators the Fair bill will simply
create a condition of affairs that is
even more muddled than they were
before. As the law reads no.v dozen
different intrepertations can be deduc
ed from it, and a corresponding num
ber of varying enforcements is the re
sult.
As far as the Fair bill is concerned
the provisions of it are covered by the
act which it seeks to amend.
Veto Axe Wielded by Governor.
Governor Stuart had a tield day yes
terday wielding the veto axe and sev
eral measures of the utmost import
ance were vetoed by him. Before us
ing the axe, however, the Governor
approved the Casey employers liabil
ity bill, which makes employers' li
able for damages where injury is in
flicted by the carelessness of an em
ploye, and the bill repealing the ac
tion of the act of 1868 which makes
railway companies liable for damages
to railway mail clerks in cases of ac
cident in and about a railway station.
Then the Governor took up his veto
axe, chopping the following:
Providing tor the safety of persons
in and about anthracite coal mines
and to limit the hours and labor of
hoisting eugiueers employed in and
about the mines.
The act prohibiting the employment
of a minor under sixteeti in or around
an anthracite coal mine or colliery for
more than eight hours a day is vetood.
The act prohibiting an anthracite
miner from having charge of more
than oue breast or working face thick
er than thirty-six inches is vetoed be
cause the Governor cannot see why a
distinction should be made between
men working in veins of coal of vary
ing thicknesses in perhaps the sanis
mine.
The above bills were all brought to
Harrisburg by the representatives of
the United Mine Workers and passed
at their request.
The Governor vetoes the act provid
ing for the creation of a State Board of
Examiners of Horseshoers for the rea
son that there does not appear to be
any public necessity for legislation
of this character at this time.
The act amending the health act of
1895, providing that certificates of suc
cessful vaccination or of previously
having had smallpox shall not be re
quired in anv locality in this State
when smallpox is not known to exist
in that locality, is also vetoed. The
amendment applies to vaccination cer
tificates necessary for a child to have
before entering school.
Tiie Governor wants to know how
the disease shall be known to exist or
by whom it shall be known to exist
before certificates are required. ' In
view of the fact that vaccination is a
preventative measure," says the Gov
ernor," it would probably afford little
protection in any locality to enforce
the requirements relative to said
certificates only after smallpox is
known to exist in order to make it the
duty of the school authorities to re
quire certificates. " He does not think
it advisable to remove what seem to
be necessary precautions.
The Governor also vetoes another
mine worker bill advocated by the
miners which provides that no minor
child under fourteen years of age shall
be employed outside of an anthraoite
colliery and no child under sixteen on
the insido of an anthracite colliery.

FISHER REMOVED
TO SUNBURY
Henry Fisher, the Northumberland
county prisoner, accused of murder,
who tried to escape the penalty of that
crime by practicing the insanity dodge
Tuesday was removed from the asy
lum for the insane at this place to the
county prison at Sunbury,
Sheriff Sharpless, accompanied by
Jesse Long, came up from Sunbury
yesterday morning and proceeded to
the hospital for the insano, where the
final details wore arranged for remov
ing the shamming patient.
Fisher offered no resistance, al
though he made no secret of the fact
that lie would rather remain at Dan
ville. When the sheriff entered the
room in which the man was confined
the latter looked up uneasily.
"Who are you?" tie asked.
"An officer of the law," replied the
sheriff, "under orders to take you
away from here."
"Where am I going?" asked Fisher.
"To the hospital for the incurable
insane at Wernersville," was the re
ply.
The latter explanation seemed to re
assure the fellow somewhat, but he
still demurred.
"I like it here," he said, "aud the
doctors treat mo well; if I could stay
here I believe I would get well; I feel
better already."
The sheriff put the handcuffs on the
prisouer. He protested that they were
too tight. One of the hospital physi
cians on examining them said lie did
not think the prisoner would be in
jured any aud the handcuffs were not
loosened.
At the station at South Danville
while waiting for the 12:10 Pennsyl
vania train Fisher proved a first class
attraction to the crowd assombled. In
stead of the raving maniac unloaded
at the same station a few weeks ago
the people saw a man perfectly ration
al as far as his outward movements
went. It is true, he was securely
handcuffed, but there was nothing to
indicate that the man was not perfect
ly sound mentally and did not know
what lie was about.
The hospital authorities emphatical
ly deny the sensational stories printed
in some of the newspapers to the ef
fect that Fisher made an attempt to
escape while incarcerated in the hos
pital.

2,250,00(1 Trees for Railroad Ties.
In undertaking the most extensive
private forest planting on record, the
Pennsylvania Railroad company has
recently begun setting ont some 550,-
000 trees. The purpose is to provide
economically in future years for the
company's requirements for ties.
Work upon a large basis is progress
ing at Mt. Union,where about 224,000
are to be planted. At Altoona, 250,-
000 or more red oak trees arc to be set
out this spring. At Hollidaysburg a
"forest nursey" is being created,
about 185 pounds of 6eed being planted
this year in nursery beds, and many
trees being set in nursery rooms for
use next year.
When this year's planting is com
pleted the company will have about
1,000 acres under cultivatiou. Some
2,250,000 trees will tiave been set out,

Col. Robinson's Brilliant Record.
A distinguished visitor to Danville
is Colonel .T. K. Robiusou of Mifflin
town, deputy State factory inspector.
The colonel visits Danville quarterly
and has many friends in this city.
Cdlonel Robiusou, who. by the way,
is really entitled to be called "Gener
al, ' has a remarkable war record,and
talks very entertainingly of his thril
ling experiences.
He entered the service of Undo Sam
soon after the Civil war began, as a
captain in the First Penusylvauia
cavalry. Later he was transferred to
a captaincy in the Sixteenth Pennsyl
vania i-avalry, and for gallant service
was made colonel of the regiment. For
particular bravery he was brevetted a
brigadier general. He had active'com
niand of his regiment in t,lie Appomat
tox campaign and his cavalry corps
was a large factor in compelling the
confederate commander to surrender.
An honored member of the Union
Veteran legion, Colonel Robinson is
everywhere held in highest esteem by
his comrades of the great oivil war.
An oil painting, an ecxellent likeness
of the man as ho appeared in war
times, occupies a conspicuous place in
the flag room in the new State capitol
building at Harrisbnrg.
Colonel Robinson, although 78 years
of age, is very aotive for a man of his
years,and bids fair to render the state
efficient service for a long time to
come.
THEN TO THE
PENITENTIARY
Peter Dietrioh, who was found
guilty of murder in the second degree
at the last term of court and Saturday
was sentenced by Judge Evans to un
dergo an imprisonment of fourteen
yiiars, was taken to the Eastern Pen
itentiary at Philadelphia Tuesday.
Sheriff D. 0. Williams was accompani
ed by Ezra S. Haas as assistant.
The two men, with the prisoner,left
on the ? :2& Pennsylvania train. The
sheriff was allowed ten days in which
to remove the prisoner and it was not
thought that Dietrich would be taken
away so soon. The trip to the station
was made very quietly and people were
much surprised later in the day to
learn that Dietrich had been removed.
None of Dietrich's friends were at
the station to see him off. The prison
er, however, seemed to bo in very good
spirits. He was handcuffed to Mr.
Haas, whose good nature and jolly dis
position seemed to be contagious and
Dietrich, while|enjoying a good cigar,
laughed and chattod pleasantly.
Mr. West's remark Saturday, that
the|defense would appeal the case was
promptly followed by such official
action as was necessary. On Mon
day the papers relating to the appeal
were taken out at the prothonotary's
oflice and from now on the interest of
the case will be closely looked after.
For nearly a year and a half Die
trich lias been confined in the county
prison. The present change is an un
welcome one, but that the prisoner is
in some measure buoyed up by the
prospects of another trial is only nat
ural.

Heat Inspection Soon in Effect.
The new meat inspection law will
be puG into effect within 60 days. As
soon as Governor Stuart, who approv
ed the meat inspection bill, completes
the work on the remainder of the bills
on his desk, lie will take up the regu
lations for meat inspection now being
prepared by Dr. Leonard Pearson,
State veterinarian.
There will be ten inspectors for gen
eral State work. These men will real
ly be experts and will be paid $ 1,800 a
year. They have full power to inspect
cattle for meat establishments wheth
er in buildings, on ships or cars, aud
to inspect plans and appliances as well
as t.lie products. They have the right
of entry aud will use a stamp similar
to that of the United States. Viola
tion of prohibition to use meat is pun
ishable by SSOO tine or imprisonment
or both as is also the forging or fraud
ulent use of the stamp.
The law is modeled after and is de
signed to supplement the national pure
food law. It is interesting to note that
at the same time the State dairy and
food department lias ordered the strict
est kind of inspection of milk aud the
enforcement of '.the oleomargarine
laws.

LOCAL TEACHERS
mm ADVANCE
The act of the legislature approved
by Governor Stuart ou May 31st, fix
ing the eatery of common school teaoh
era holding a provisional certificate at
not less than forty dollars per month
and of those holding a professional,
permanent or normal school certificate
at not less than fifty dollars per month
will add very much to the item of
salaries in the Danville school district.
No less than twenty-two teachers will
receive material advances under the
law. The lowest salary paid under
the schedule adopted by the local
school board for the payment of teach
ers lias been thirty-five dollars per
month. Of the three, who were this
low, two will be advanced to forty
dollars and the third, who holds a
normal diploma, will go up o fifty
dollars per month.
The law provides that from and af
ter the passage of the act the salary of
common school teachers in districts of
this Commonwealth reoeiving State
appropriation shall be no less than fifty
dollars per month in all cases where
the teacher holds a professional, per
manent or normal school certificate
and has had two years practice and
presents a certificate of proficiency
in said practice for said time from the
superintendent in charge of said teach
er.
It provides that the minimum salary
shall be forty dollars for all teachers,
holding certificates of less grade than
required under section one of this act.
It prescribes that the State shall pay
the amount of increase in all salaries
that are provided for under this act
and over the amount of salary paid in
each school district iu 190f> and said
increase shall be paid out of the in
creased appropriation
The total amouut payable to all tho
school districts iu the State on ac
count of the increase of teachers' sal
aries shall first be deducted from the
total animal school appropriation and
the balance shall be apportioned and
distributed among the several school
districts as provided for under exist
ing laws. The State superintendent
shall at the usual time of paying the
regular appropriation pay to those dis
tricts from the annual school ap
propriation an excess equal to the dif
ference between the salaries for the
school year 1906 and tlie minimum sal
aries proscribed by this act.
There was some donht iu the minds
of the local school board as to wheth
er or not the above act goes into ef
fect the present year. W. J. Burns,
then chairman, addressed an inquiry
to State Superintendent of Public In
struction Nathan 0. Sciiaeft'er and in
reply received the emphatic informa
tion that the law goes into effect in
the school year, 1907-1908. Inasmuch
as the appropriation is paid at the end
of tho year for whioh it is made the
first payment cannot tako place before
June, 1908, but the increase of salaries
begins with the opening of the schools
iu the fall of 1907. State Superintend
ent Schaetfer states that in hisopinion
the law does not change any contract
which the school board may have made
for the present month of June, which
properly belongs to the school year of
1906-1907.

PRELIMINARY
DECREE GRANTED
The first legal step towaid getting
rid of the old cemetery on Bloom
street was taken Saturday, when At
torney E. S. Gearhart presented the
petition of the trustees of the Grove
Presbyterian church to the court and
Judge Evans in compliance issued a
preliminary decree relating to the
matter.
The petition to the judges of the
quarter sessions, which was signed by
Thomas J. Rogers, I. X. Grier, M.
Grier Youngmau James T. Magill, J.
B. Gearhart, T. W. Bartholomew, and
Alexander Foster, trustees, sets forth,
that the said trustees of the Mahoning
Presbyterian English congregation,
north, are the owners and have proper
legal and exclusive coutrol of the
cemetery on Bloom street, the bound
aries and the description of which
there follow,and that by reason of the
growth of the borough and the open
ing and maintenance of other cemet
eries in the immediate vicinity there
of and from divers other causes, such
as the voluntary removal of remains
there interred and by the total ab
andonment of burial lots, the said
cemetery lias become so neglected as
to become a public nuisance.
The petitioners pray the court to
authorize ami direct the removal by
the trustees of the remains of the dead
from the said cemetery or burial
ground and that the court may grant
to the said trustees such further pow
er, authority and. relief as it shall
seem necessary, adequate and proper
in order to legally effectuate the fore
going purpose and premises.
The court made the following pre
liminary decree:
"And now June 8, 1907, upon read
ing the'within petition and after due
consideration thereof the court do
hereby fix the sixth day of July, A,
D., 1907 at 10 o'clock in the forenoon
as the time for the hearing of the
parties, their proofs and allegations,
and the court do hereby further order
and direct that the within named
trustees and petitioners give due and
legal notice of such hearing by adver
tising in two newspapers printed in
the said borough of Danville for at
least three successive weeks prior to
the said time fixed for such hearing.
By the Court,
CHARLES C. EVANS, P. J."
Following the hearing, if the testi
mony adduced justify such action, the
court'will be asked to make a final
decree, authorizing, empowering and
directing the removal of such remains
of the dead as can be found from tho
said cemetery by the trustees in a care
ful manner at their own expense to
such other burial ground that they
may select, and,if desired by the rela
tives or friends, to some proper regul
ated burial ground in the immediate
vicinity. The decree will carefully
safeguard the graves from desecration
and provide for due and timely notice
to all relatives and friends of the in
tention of the trustees to remove the
bodies from the old cemetery in pur
-1 suance of this act.

Beer Party Tapped a Keg.
With the advent of warm weather
; beer drinking iu the alloys during the
evenings, especially on Saturday
nights, is becoming a nuisance. Much
J complaint comes from the vicinity of
Grove's fur'.iHce, where iast Saturday
1 night a Darfv of follows with a beg
j for company, made night hideous.
! The beer drinkers were picnicking in
| an alley and they kept up a noise un
til after midnight, the lauguage as a
rule being vulgar and profane. People
residing near were much annoyed and
were prevented from obtaining sleep.
The alley in question is a favorite
picnicking ground for beer parties.
On next Saturday night there will no
doubt be a repetition of the same scene
—unless the police put iu an appear
ance.

TO PREVENT THE
MOSQUITO USANCE
Sunbury sees a remedy ahead for the
mosquito pest, which Danville might
well give a little heed to, seeing that
conditions that obtain in the two
towusare somewhat similar. Danville,
it is true,may not have so many basins
and stagnant pools, but it has what
is as bad or worse right in the center
of town and that is the abandoned
canal with a foot or more of stagnant
water on the bottom.
The joint committees of the Iris
Club aud the Borough Council of Sun
bury met a day or so ago to devise I
means to rid the town of the mosquito j
nuisance. It was decided to petition j
Council at the special meeting which j
has been nailed for the purjwse this !
evening, to appropriate SIOO to fight j
the pest by purchasing oil and pouring j
it on the basins and other pools of j
stagnaut water in public places about j
the town.
Since it has become so well known '
that mosquitoes are not only an annoy- j
ance but a menace to health; that
their sting is not only painful but I
dangerous,and that they carry disease !
from one person to another, it would ;
seem hardly necessary to urge upon
the public generally the use of coal j
oil. This simple, inexpensive and ef
fective remedy is within the reach of |
all,and by using it freely in cess pools, 1
drains aud on pools of stagnant water,
the larvae of the mosquitoes are kill
ed and people can easily rid their
towns of this post.
There is no case of indigestion, no
matter how irritable or how obstinate ;
