enid that the gioilojt hindranco to tbo
ovening syslom is a lack cf attondanco.
Last season 320 boys were enrolled, but
only 40 or CO attended all through the
term.
Mr. Freeman thought it would bo a
great advantage to tbo boys who show
a disposition to learn if they could have a
school by tbeuiselvo). Ho thought It
would be well to pick out tuch boys and
give them a show by placing them undor
ono of tho beet teachers. lie ftyorod tho
high school Idea and ho thought if soma of
the pupils reacbod tbo proper standard
bookkeeping and similar, branches might
bo taught,
Tho board decided to opon six evening
eohools for four months and an ovening
high school for a term of tlx months and
that they opon on tho 17th inet. It was
alto decidod that the salaries of the teachers
bo ai follows : Tho high school, $86 (ior
month ; Turkey Bun school, (80 ; town
schools, 26. The talitrlea Id the two lait
named branches aro tho tamo as last year.

ENFORCING THE RULE.
President Conry Could not bo Induced to
Make Exception.
Presidont Conry, of tho School Board,
threw a bomb into the camp last night.
When the timo arrived to road bills ho
said, "The Secretary will read all bills that
are properly signed."
II r. Muldoon jumped up and (aid, "Mr
Chairman, I havo had a number of bills in
my possession for over a week, as required
by tbo rule, but tho other mombers of the
committee havo not had timo to sign thorn."
"I gave notice at the last mooting that I
would enforce the rule," answered Mr.
Coary; "No bills will bo considered by
this board until after the committee that
incur thorn examine and sign them."
Mr. Muldoon was very much orabarrassod
and Mr. Bpddall tried to help him out by
moving that the committees bo empowered
to examine tho bills and if found correct
tho secretary havo authority to issue orders
for them.
But Mr. Conry was obdurate Ho rulod
the motion out of older, and about forty
bills slid over the tablo to await the next
meeting of the bosrd, which will not be
hold until tbo first Wednesday of Novom
bor. This rulo docs not cover tho salaries
ol teachers, janitors, etc., and they will be
obliged to wait a mouth,

THE DEADLY
FLOBERT RIFLE
ONE! OF THEM CAUSES A
DEATH.
A SALOON KEEPER THE VICTIM
Goorsro Krolvenas Shot Through
the Heart Ho Dies Almost
Instantly It Was an Acci

EO. KBEIVENAS,

ins, uigukJU uia piauo
of business on East
Centre stroet bv a ball
vj?, fired from a Flobert
2? ( rifle Tho ball en
ered his heart, Who her tho deceased
met his death at his own hands, or at the
hands of another, has not been decided.
His countrymen say ho shot himself.
Those who think tho shot might havo been
fired by anothor party say that if tuch was
tho caoo thoy bolievo it was purely acci
dental. Kreivenas lived but ten minutes after he
was shot.
A Herald roporter visited tho saloon
this morning and found it full of Poles
and Lithuanians, hut no business was going
on. The bar was covered with sheeting to
shut the bottles and other ornaments on it
from view. Thore was but ono man in tho
crowd who acknowledged that he could
understand and speak English and ho said
he knew nothing of the shooting and
didn't think anybody in the house did.
Ho had heard that Kreivonas had shot him
self. Tho deceased was 42 years of ago, he
said, and left a wifo and four children.
Tho oldest child was 14 years of ago.
Squire J. J. Monaghan sbvs that ho got
to tho saloon immediately aftor tho victim
was shot. Kreivenas was lying upon a
loungo. Blood was streaming from his
mouth and ho was dying. Dr. Mattor
arrived Ht about tho same time, but could
do nothing.
John Bogcrs, Jr., was ono of the men in
tho place when Kroivonas was shot. His
story is this: "It was between 10 and 11
o'clock last night. Matt. KoDshinskl.
Kreivenas and myself wore shooting for
tho drinks. Wo stood in tbo bar-room and
shot at a targot that was put up in the
dining room for tho first time yesterday.
Kopshinski and mo beat Kreivenas and he
told his wife to sot up tho drinks. We
went up to tho bar and while waiting for
the drinks talked about tho horso show.
h-reiyonas was in tho dining room. He
said ho would bet 25 cents ho would win
nsxt time. A moment or two later we
found ho was shot. We heard no noiio. I
don't know bow ho was shot.
F;auk Balsbanick, a well known and
intelligent Polish young man who is a
member of tbo Grant Band, has mado the
following statement: "I had been in the
yard. When I ontered the kitchen I
heard tbom shooting at the target. 1 was
afraid to pass through the dining room for
fear I would be shot, so I took a scat beside
the ftovo in tbo kitchen to wait until thoy
would get through. 'After thoy finithod
and turned to tho bar somebody shouted to
mo, 'Gomo and havo drink, Kreivenas is
stuck,' I passed into the dining room and
mot Kreivenas coming out of tho bar room.
He bad his band up to bis mouth and as I
thought ho was about to vomit I stepped
aside to let him pass. I alterwards found
he was shot."
'Squire Monaghan says bo triod to gdi
Kreivenas to make a statement, but he was
dying and nothing could bo gleaned.
There Is a strong belief that Kreivonas was
accidontly ihot by somo one in tho bar
room. There wero two" Flobert riflw in
the placo and tho question is who had
chargoof tbo second rifle whon tho drink
ing was going on. Somo of the deceased's
fnondi say ho was in tho habit of placing
tho stock of the rifle on tbo floor, with the
muzzle of the barrel pointed towards his
body, when be wished to push tbo ham
mer back, Both riflos wero examined to
day and it was found that the hamiaers of
both wero Imperfoct. It was difficult to
male them stay back to propare for shoot
ing. They shoot a 22-calibre ball.

Some of tlm Topics That Teoplo are Tllc-
Inc About To-dny.
It may Interest some people to know that
"Big Joo" the most prominent of the
survivors of the Jeanesvillo mino horror of
several months ago, it row working as a
mason's laborer noar Uazleton His effjrts
to mako money as a dime museum freak
failed completely, but ho resolved nover to
work in tho mines again. He pays fre
quent visits to friends In town, but is no
mure a figure of attraction.
It takes tho campaign orators to pull out
tho people. I noticed on tbo streets Tues
day night people I bad not met for soveral
months and all wore bound for tie Repub
lican mass meeting. They wero not the
men who bang to the coat skirts of the
prominent politicians, but men of conser
vative character who devote all the time
thoy can to their homes, They were out
seeking information on the issues of the
day, and they got It.
I obsorvo that many of tho Jardin street
propony owners are supplanting wooden
pavements with flsgs. A good move.
Whilo hero the other evening General
Hastings sprung a Watcrbury watch joke
on the audience. He enumerated several
novel uses to which tbo watch can be put
and wound up by saying that it is useful
for fishermen, firstly because it is a Water'
bury, and secondly because wbon the fish
swims up to the dial thoy find it is time to
bite. Seo?
I have been requfstod to ask tho people
of town to bo on the lookout for William
Lloyd, an old resident of Minorsville who
has been missing for several days. Ho is a
low-sized man, very gray, and hardly able
to walk. His family fears that he is
wandering aimlessly about tho county, or
haB mot his death in some secluded spot.
An old housekeeper, who knows that she
is talking about, gives her impression as to
the best way in airing bed clothes, &c. In
airing beds the most thorough, careful
housekeoper often errs through her very
thoroughness. She will shake the sheet?.
blanko's, etc., and hang tbom out of tho
window and over chairs, having them all
exposed as much as possible to tho direct
rays of tho sun and in tho ftrongost breeze,
and this is just what should be done. Thtn
the pillows will bo taken up and shaken
and thumped until they'are soft and fiufly
and placed in tho vory sunniest spot, and
tu is is nil wrong. The sun will draw the
oil from tho feathers, and tho pillows will
have a rancid, disagreeable odor. Expose
them to the air daily, ie as thorough as
you please in this, and place tho pillow
slips in tho sun if you wish, but do not
make this mistake of giving pillows, bol
sters, cushions, or anything containing
feathers, a long sun bath, or you will do
them more lia'ra than good.
Flannels should be ironel as little as pos
sible, and never with a vory hot iron, as it
shrinks tie goods and spoils the finish. It
is much belter, for most flannels, to simply
press tbe bands, ficings and other cotton or
similar parts, folding tbo woolen part
smoothly and putting away f r use. White
clothes aio to ironed on tho right side, but
calicoes, glnglnms, embroideries, stock
ings and tho like on the wrong sido. A
very excellent olfeot is obuined on fine
embroiderio) by ironing upon the wrong
side with the fabric laid carefully between
two thicknesses of flannel.
