r VOL. VI.--XO. 144. SHEXANDOAH, PA., WEDNESDAY. JUNE 3. 1 891 . OXE GENT. THE. SUEEST KOAD TO WEALTH IS THEOUGH LIBEEAL ADYEETISINTG ! 'V f 'ell em wn I )ass i As the question of increasing the salaries of tho teachers of the public schools Is belue discussed with re- ( newed vigor, and aa the School Board ijfW will meet to-nlglit to elect teachers, vb proper at this tlrno to make a sug gestion In that connection. Thero Is no more important branch jof work in the school than the teach ing of drawing and music nnd method of teachlug those studies should bo kept as near the standard of perfec tion as possible. I That department is now under the charge of one teacher and It Is recog nized that tho duties developing upon that ono teacher are too arduous. It is therefore suggested that the acnc'i .uoaru, at ns meeting lo-uignt, idecldo to elect two teachers for that 'branch, ono to teach drawing and the other for vocal music. This Is a reasonable suggestion and jit is hoped the board will duly con jslder it. It la repeated that the combined work Is too much for one teacher, LUmrala nn rinnVif. flint nvivrwnrlr In 'THat department contributed to the death of one of tho best teachers of the corps and that her predecessor re signed for like reason. That the present teacher should complain is not surprising. Indeed it is surprising that tho teacher has succeeded in ac complishing such good work under tho circumstances. But the accom plishments of the past cannot be used as arguments against a division of Its work. Tho teacher may bear up un- der the strain for a while, but nature will eventually assert itself and then' well, the teacher will bo forced to re tire and the department will suflei from the disadvantages that attend ,,he appointment of a new teacher. To expect good work the Instructor piust be given fair play and not be handicapped by overwork. ,Vn A-llentown Are company re igned a trumpet won at a fair be- 'satisfaction concerning the award.

Tho Princo of Waloo Tostlflss That Ho Saw no Orookod Play Tho Caso Against Camming Bo llovod to bo Sottlod. London, Juno 3. Tho Baccarat caso has thus far doveloped tho following facts: That Gordon Cummlng signed a document for tho purpose of securing himself against tha charge being pub licly made known, and that ho did not demand to bo confronted with his ac cusers, but signed tho damaging docu ment and left tho bouse noxt morn ing, ns ho was told to do by Gen. Will iams and Lord Coventry. This conduct bo explains by saying that at tha ttmoho bad lost his head. That tho Princo of Wales did not nsk him to sign tho papor, nor was It oveu mentioned In tho courso of tho interviow which ho hail with tho Prince. That Lord Coventry mid Gen. Owen Williams, who advised him to sign, wero very old friends, and bo had no reason to doubt that thoy bellovod him to bo guilty. Thnt he took no stops to assort his iunoconco until tho scandal leaked out, nnd then becauso ho was justified In tho thought that tho aualr would bo taken up by his club, his regiment nnd his friends. So tho cuso stands to-dny, tho ovldonco given by tho Princo of Wales not materially affecting tho main Issue. THo Frllico In tho llnx. Tho Princo of Walos wont into tho box looking very much nnnoyed.

His testlmouy was given with a frankness that seemed to command tho bolicf of all present, at thosamo tlmo tho Princo was unablo to conceal that ho felt himself In an uuploasant position. His popularity was shown by tho spontaneous respect which everybody displayed. Tho gonernl talk.In clubs and lobbies 13 thnt tho testimony of tho Princo has sottled tho caso against Cummlng. His avowal that he had cut Sir William slnco last September is accepted as stronger ovldonco of tho Prlnco's belief In Cum mlng's guilt than If ho had plainly ex pressed his conviction of such guilt. In matters of tlio kind tho Princo is known to bo merciless. Clubraon genorally scout tho 6tory that a woman's revongo was at tho bottom of tho Cummlng exposure. Ono of tho lead lug mon of tho Marlborough tho Princo of Wales' own tald last night that It was a Btory imposslblo to keep, and that it was well for society and tho army It could not bo kept. Tho Princo, ho said, had erred only lu attempting to keop tho matter secret through his sympathy for Cummlng. Ono of tho rumor3 floating about la that Cumming had doubly offondod tho Prince by his frea remarks regarding tho Princo nnd Lady Brooke, nnd that bad Cummlng kopt his tonguo still ns to tbo Prince and tho lifdy, ho would havo had influence onougu behind him to savd blm from tho presont disgrace.
