WANTED-MORE MEN TUB The rapidity with which women are sujiersediug men as teachers in the public schools of Pennsylvania is point - ed out by State Superintendent Schaef er in his annual report, which he sub mitted Saturday to Governor Stuart. In li>oo there were in this State 0,894 men aud 19,99t> women teachers, while at the present time there are 7,935 men teachers and 20,771 women teach ers, Dr. Schaefer expresses the hope that some method will be found to en courage men to remain teachers, be cause boys especially need masculine influence at a certain stage in the school life. * Possibly the greatest shock to Penn sylvania's pride will be Superintend ent Schaefer's statement that this State does not occupy the high place in pro viding for its school children that many taxpayers believe,but that other states make a far better per capita showing. He also criticises the high school systems, both city ami town ship. As to Pennsylvania's appropria tions to schools lit' says: "The biennial school appropriation of $15,000,000 has misled many of our citizens into thinking that Pennsyl vania sets apart a larger proportion of the State revenues for school purposes than any other State in the Union. This thought is far from true, if ac count. is taken of the permanent re venues for educational purposes. "New Jersey does not make large school appropriations at each session of the legislature, but her fixed school revenues from other than local sources make a far better per capita showing than Pennsylvania's large biennial school approrpiatiou. "In Indiana the total State tax levy is . 3335, out of which .1035, or nearly half, is set apart for education. In Minnesota about one-third of the State revenue, counting funds derived from school lauds and the permanent fund, is devoted to educational purposes. In Michigan the elementary school fund yields a revenue in excess of $8,000,- 000, which is twice the amount raised by local taxation. "Hearty endorsement is given the new plan of requiring a four-year high school course, or its equivalent, as a requirement for preliminary education of those who expect to study medic ine, law, dentistry and pharmacy. This will be a great help to stimulate sec ondary education." Work of high schools and normal schools has riot yet been satisfactorily eo-ordinateil, the superintendent says. He claims it is a waste of public mon ey to make a high school nothing more than a training school for teachers. The high school should primarily fit pupils for the lite they will lead in the future; it is the province of the normal school to lit them for college or professional school, and this is a secondary purpose with the real high school. Graduates of a normal school, he says, are far better teachers than graduates of a city high school. WEDDED SUNDAY EVENING Charles W. Schmelzer, of Philadel phia, and Mrs. Minnie Bruder, of this city, were united in the bonds of matrimony Sunday evening at 9 o'clock by Rev. A. J. Irey, D.

POLICE DETAIN 10 YOUNG GIRLS The stern duties of our chief of pol ice Saturday night were varied by an enisode calling for the exercise of his authority in which two pretty girls from Northumberland were the chief actors anil delinquents. About 10 o'clock the chief was call ed up on the 'phone by a woman liv ing in Northumberland, who explain ed that her seventeen-year-old daugh ter along with another Northumber land girl of about the same age had left home and that in the mother's opinion they had gone to Danville nl lurod by the show that was the attrac tion in the opera house at that date. The girls to be sought were Lillian Carroll and Rachel Conrad. With the clue that had been furnished as to their probable whereabouts when the show was over the officer stationed himself at the main entrance to the opera house, and, as the girls passed out quickly and unostentatiously gave them to understand that for the time being they were in his care and keep ing. They readily took in the situa tion, one of them exclaiming: "Why they know where, we are will enough. Although inclined to demur they had to accompany the officer to city hall. The spectacle of the blue coat «ith a jauntily dressed girl on each side of him was not usual one oil the crowded street and caused much conjecture as what it all meant. The anxious mother in Northumber land was apprised that her daughter and companion were in safe hands in Danville. The chief was asked to de tain the girls until yesterday morning when arrangements would be made to take them home. When it came to complying with the latter request the chief was in a quandary, as the use of the lock-up, the only place at his disposal, in sucli a case was obviously out of the ques tion. To detain the girls in prison was also not to be considered seriously. 'The hour of midnight was rapidly approaching when the generous laud lord of the Baldy house came to the policeman's rescue and volunteered to furnish the girls a room and to be re sponsible for their safe keeping until morning. Both girls returned to Northumber land on the 12:51 D. L. & W. train Sunday accompanied by a relative who came up to Danville for them on the early morning train. Myers—Shade. John A.

WEEK FOR MARCAVITCH While the execution of Stanny Mar eavitch will take place at Sunbury a week from today, the prisoner main tains the utmost composure. He is not now buoyed up with the hope that his case might be reconsid ered by the board of pardons, as he was last June and in June a year ago. Vet lie talks freely with the men aliout him and his conduct has been most ex emplary. He denies that he ever stated that lie would "die game" as was current ly stated From some source he lias obtained most of the newspaper com ment on his case, and this occupies a large part of his time. Ho has taken a certain amount of pride in the contrast between himself and Henry Fisher, who also is und< r sentence of death. He acted like a man in all tlii) ordeals through which he mssed, while Fisher displayed the .Host abject cowardice and was so re volting anil degraded that he seemed o be more like a low order of beast hau a human being.

TABY ARRANGES FOR HANGING Tabv visited Pottsville Sat urday and made arrangements with the Schuylkill county commissioners to use the Schuylkill gallows at Sun lmry on November 18 when Stanny Marcaviteh will be executed for the murder of the aged Springfield cobj bier. Sheriff Taby in addition to securing the Schuylkill gallows, has also ar ranged with Underwarden Michael Schoeneman to spend some time at Sunbury to assist in the preparation of the prisoner and also to super vis# the execution. The latter has during his many years of service at the Potts ville prison arranged the details for a number of executions and has never had a failure mar an occasion of this kind. The gruesome instrument of death has been used in Schuylkill county for the execution of some 20 or more condemned murderers, and was the one upon which the Mollies were executed nearly 30 years ago. Although the identity of the man who will pull the rope which springs the trap through which Marcavitch will drop to his death, is closely guard ed, it was learned that Sheriff Taby has arranged with a Schuylkill county man to perforin this gruesome task. The hangman who will officiate at Sunbury has assisted in several ex ecutions of recent date in Schulykill county.

Quite a number have become so proficient in the new language that they can both write anil converse fluently in it. Not a few of the Danville students are con ducting correspondence with students of Esperanto in European countries and derive a great deal of pleasure from the exchange of sentiment, post cards, &c. Millions of people in every nation and condition of life are now using the new language. There have been four world conventions in which Esperanto was used by people from all countries and they understood each other per fectly. " The new language is not difficult to learn. A bright child of ten years, it is said, can master it and people have been able to write it quite well after a few days of study. Yet it is not a mere play language. It is taught in the great university of Oxford, the university of Chicago,the Chautauqua institution and in many public schools. A meeting will be held lit the office of Justice of the Peace W. Oglesby on Friday the 12th inst.,at S p. m.for the purpose of considering the organ ization of a (dub here, to be under the Pennsylvania Esperanto association, j which in turn is subordinate to the Esperanto association of North Amer ica.

GRILLING THE GUARDSMEN Henceforth the members of the na tional guard will be drilled by or un dar the supervision of a regular army officer. In Danville he will appear on the fourth drill night of each month and assume charge of the movements. The matter Is fully explained by the following letter, which was read by Captain Herrington before the mem bers of Company F, Thursday night: "Captain F. M. Herrington, Danville, Pa., Dear Captain:—Sergeant Frank A. Wagner, sth infantry, U. S. A., has been detailed to this regiment. The commanding officer of the regiment desires to arrange for him to spend one drill night in the fourth week of each mouth at Danville. Kindly advise j headquarters as to your drill night and j what arrangements you can make. | Yours very truly, M. H. TAGGART, Adjutant." The fourth di ill night of the month ' when Sergeant Wagner will make his j lirsr visit to Danville will occur on the J.'ith inst.. Thanksgiving. In order that the drill may be over in time to enable the officer to leave on the i> :Hi. D. L. & W. train it has been decided to meet for drill at 7 s'O o'clock. Cap tain Heriiiigton will see to it that the members of the company attend drill, especially on the night each month when Sergeant Wagner is present. At the last drill night, Thursday,the cap tain gave tiie members of the company the benefit of an object lesson, show ing that he means all lie says in regard to compelling attendance. There were several absentees who the captain believed had no good rea son for not being present. He accord ingly sent out a squad of eight men under a non-commissioned officer to bring in the delinquents. He will re peat the measure each night until the members learn that they can not evade the obligation they assumed when they joined the Guard. The penalty that a captain may impose for failure to at tend drill is quite heavy. In Philadel phia the delinquents are often im prisoned. | A Religious Author's Statement. i R. v Joseph H.
