UPT. FREEMAN and
tho school tcachcr met
in tho Illgh School
room yesterday after
noon at '1:30 and re
mained in session
nearly three hours. It
was a regular Institute, but tho meeting ivas
enlivened by tho Introduction of two im
portant public matters at tho close pf tho
regular exercises.
Chief Burgoss Smith nnd School Director
Gallagher occupied sonts beside tlio superin
tendent and Principal Ehrhart as special
guests. The Chief Burgess read a list of
diphtheria and scarlet fever cases discovered
In town, giving the names of the victims, so
that the teachers would know what families
aro nfllicted. In reading the names Mr.
Smith requested to hold them in confidence,
as tho physicians from whom ho had secured
tho names had made him promise not to havo
them published,
Tho teachers noted tho names and there
was an understanding that if any children
of tho atllicted families aro attending school
they will be notified to remain homo until
tho danger is ovor.
Superintendent Freeman said ho thought
it wrong for tho physicians to require such
secrecy. lie thought tho names of tho
ailllcted parties should be given all tho pub
licity possible so as to put tho public on
guard. In somo places, ho said, physicians
are obliged to post notices on housos in which
contagious diseases exist.
Tho Chief Burgess said that thero was no
law requiring tho physicians to do so in this
town and that tho authorities aro powerless
to apply tho quarantine, except in cases of
email pox, which aro governed by a special
ordinance.
Tho Burgess suggested tho use of carbolic
acid and water for disinfecting purposes nnd
Miss Stack, one of tho teachers, said that she
had loarnpd that tho burning of turpentino
and tar was a good preventative. Mr. Smith
also suggested tho burning of sulphur in a
room with closed doors.
Superintendent Freeman announced that
he had ordered a supply of carbolic acid for
each school and gave tho following directions:
Each school will have a four ounco bottlo of
carbolic acid; tnko ono-quartcr of tho con
tents and dilute it in a quart bottlo of water;
thon sprlnklo tho solution over the floors, In
sinks nnd other placos necessary.
Superintendent Freeman then announced
tho arrangements for tho celebration of
Columbus Day. All tho schools will as-
bonible at their respective quarters at 0
o'clock in tho morning and carry out the
programmes arranged for the indoor exer
cises. Tho parents and friends of the pupils
are requested to attend theso exercises.
At 10:30 all tho schools will assemble on
Line street for parade, which will not march
over a long routo on account of the number
of small children that will bo in lino. Tho
routo will probably be down Main street to
Lloyd; to White; to Oak; to Jardin; to Lloyd;
and up to tho High School building to par
ticipate in tho outdoor oxercisos, for which
the following programme has been arranged :
Song "Bofore All Lands"
liaising of flag by veterans.
Three cheers.
Song ot Columbus Day...... -..High School
Baluto to the flag ......School and Veterans
tjonjr, 'Columbia Hail I High School
Address by a pupil of the High School
"Tho Moaning of the four Centuries"
Song 'The Ked, Whito and Uluo"
Tho Ode "Columbia's Banner."
Hong...... ... ., ."America"
After the close of theso exercised tbo
schools will be dismissed to glvo them time
to go homo and prepare to see the Joint
pantflo whlchjwill move at 2 p. in. sharp.
Tho High School will assemble ntl o'clock,
Bharp, to carry out tho following in-door
progrurumo before tho afternoon, 'parade
starts :
Bong of Columbus Day School
Ksay, "Columbus,".. ...John W. Campbell
Hssay, "Isabella," .,..,JIry M. Pomeroy

Deolamatlon, "A Personal Itamtnlsoeno

Essay, "Growth of Our Country, "..II. Ciyiewskl
Bong, "Star Spangled Banner," gohool
Superintendent' Freeman announced that
tho children would only bo expected to ap
pear in their regular school attire for tho
parade. He had decided upon this, In said,
because lie wants to have all the cblMrPn in
lino und does not want somo to remain nway
because their parents may not bo able to
drees them as noil as other children.
The superintendent then announced that
he had decided to let the teachers decide
whether or not thoy would parado with tho
schools. Tho teachers took up tho question
and spirited discussions followed. Somo did
not wish to parade and others wanted to sco
tho malo teachers in Hue. Two ballots by
voice were'taken and then two rising votes,
but tho Tpaestion remained undecided.
Finally it was decided to take a vote by roll
call nnd tho Chief Uurgoss, Hebald reporter
and secretary of tho meeting, M. F. Coury,
wcro made an electoral board.
Tho result of this ballpt was 20 tp 10 In
favor of tho teachers parading with tho
schools.
Superintendent Freeman announced that
forty-four pupils of tho High school will
represent the schuols In tho joint parade.

" Fairies' Vell," which is to appear in Forgu

20th, suysi George Tlmmons as Teddy
O'Nell won all hearts by his simpio, natural
stylo of acting. Mr. Timmous thoroughly
understands tho part, and wo can scarcely
holp thinking that he, in his own person,
experiences the vicissitude of Iovo, fortune
and adventuro which aro tho share of tho
noblo warm-hoartcd Teddy. Mr. Timmous
won loud applause for his dancing and
singing, and was several timos cnthusiiusti
cally summoned beforo tho curtain, where ho
met with an ovation.
HOBS1W WITH A 1II8TORV.
Among the contributors to the fun and
oxcitemcnt of tho " Police Patrol " which
will appear in Ferguson's theatro uoxt Wed
nesday evening, October i.'fith, a're included
two famous white horses. This pair of
oquinos enjoy a reputation greater than that
of tho ordinary animal of tho kind and they
own their reputation to an epoch in tho
history of Chicago. Whon they first sprang
into prominence they woro connected witli
the Chicago police department drawing tho
patrol wagon for the Dosplaines street station.
On that fatal day in May, when arnnchy
sought to rule the world, they, with tho
assistance of a few brave men were instru
mental in saving the lives of somo eight
oilieers. When that crowd of oxclted and
half-crazed foreigners gathered at Haymarket
square and Haunted their ilag of red, a
dotuchmcut of polico was sent from ono of
tho stations to guard tho unruly mob, and in
caso of necessity compel poaco, Tho fast
gathering clans of arnachists soon surrounded
the few unfortunate blue coats, who found
themselves completely hemmed in by tho
surging mob, to whom the sight of a police.
man's star was like a red bandana swung in
tho face of an enraged bull. Some kind
friends on tho ouUldo beciug tho plight of tho
few policemen, rang in an alarm for the
patrol which sounded in tho station where
"Jin" and "Frauk" were doing service;
when tho bell pealed forth its call they were
soon on their way to tho scono of trouble
carrying a wagon loaded with woll-armod
polico. As they turned tho corner into
Haymarket square a crowded mass of
struggliiighumanily which completely packed
this open street from wall to wall presented
Itself. Thero, In the centre, could be seen
tho few bravo ottlcors vainly struggling to
gain shelter. Thero was but ono thing to do
tho olllcers drew their revolvors and clubs
nnd the driver lashed his horses straight into
the face of the mob, where tho plucky animals
literally fought tholr way through by biting
and pawing until the bravo men were picked
up and carried to a point of safety. It was
dlroctly aftor this that the bomb was thrown
which cost the lives of so many brave officers
as well as tho execution of tho prime movers
in the oause of nrnachy. It wns from tho
action of the horses at this tlmo nnd at the
McCorralok reaper works a llttlo latter that
those two Intelligent animals gaiuod tho
title "Tho Whito Patrol." Thoy wore
trained in a wonderfully clover manner and
seem to know their cuo, too, In tho play as
well as the aetors themselves. Oftentimes
opera houses nro found where noaeM to the
stage is dittlcult, but thoy climb tho walk
without tho least bit of hesitation, requiring
but tho kind word of tholr driver to direct
their movement.

S-,"-"5 Heuald to-day
presents a few reasons
why the Borough
Council should organize
a Board of Health to
take charge of tho
present epidemic, o f
scarlet fever and dlph
thcria. We havo tho
statements of physicians that members of
families nillicted with ono or tho other or
both diseases havo been attending school un.
til their conditions becaino critical.
We havo tho statement of tho Chief Bur
gess that ho can only adviso disinfectants.
Wo havo tho statements of members of tho
sanitary committee that they cannot visit
tho infected places and run the risk of carry
ing tho diseases into their own families.
We find tho doctors unwilling to give the
names pf tho indicted parties for publication,
fearing that tho patients and parents of
patients will bo displeased.
Wo havo no law by which tho physicians
can bo obliged to po3t notices on tho doors
of housos containing contagious diseases.
Wo have no means, apparently, by which
wo can compel people to disinfect thoir
houses.
In fact wo havo nothing savo the advice of
tho Chief Uurgoss and tho diseases aro
subject to no control.
In this epidemic wo are like a ship without
boamcn.
Wo must havo a Board of Health.
Another death was added to tho record
to-day.

EVENINQ UUUALD. tf
Synopnli) or Itev. Wlllmm l'owlrk'a Inter
cstlnif Sermon
Tho sermon in the M. E. church on Sun
day was from Proverbs 27-1 : " Boast not thy
self of to-morrow, for thu knowest not what
a day may bring forth." Prudenceand piety
3to not antagonistic. We have no riirht to be
Indifferent to the future. The scripture en
joins reasonable diligence so far as our tem
poral future is concerned. There is an am
bition which is not only lawful but eseential
tp our welfare. Take away tho Insplratiea
of hopo and most of the motive power of life
is gone. What is forbidden is boasting of to
morrow. Wo need not utter boastful words
about our plans and promises for tho future
in order to "boast of to-morrow." Wo do it
when we ignoro the opportunities and re
sponsibilities of to-day. The pupil at school
the npprentico at the bench tho loafer on
the corner who neglect tho opportunities of
the present under the vain delusion that all
will end well that a better day is coming are
boasting of tomorrow. But tho most reck
less and conspicuous examples wo have are itt
the roligious life. Tho Savior calls " to-day"
and men respond " to-morrow." Who would
havo desecrated this holy Sabbath had ha
not boasted himself of another day In whieh
to repent? Would that last oath have been
uttored but for the hope that God would
grant another day. Many will readily admit
that they nro living beneath their religion
prlvilogoand in neglect of their roligiou
duty and that they cannot hopo to be saved,
unless they amend. Yet they make no at
tempt to do so at present becauso they boast
to themselves of to-morrow. " Go thy wajr
for this time, when I have convenient seMOlf
I will call for thee" as though they were
sure of such a season, and as though there,
was something iu the mere lapso of time to
effect improvement. Whereus wo know not
what a day may bring forth and that the
tendoncy of to-morrow is but to confirm and
strengthen tho habits of to-day. Iu some re
spects it is well we do not know what a day
may bring forth. It might make us vory
miserable. Supposo our bereaved neighbor
had known a week ago that thoy would to
night bo sitting in the shadow of death that
tho widowed mother had known in advance
of the accident that was to crush the llfo out
of her only son that tho victims of the
cyclone and earthquako had known a year
ugo of tho losses thoy were to sustain, would
it have done more than poison their cup of
joy a little sooner. On tho othor hand rfc
might mako us presumptuous. To know
that wo had just so longto live mightlead ut
to neglect that preparation for tho future
which is needful to our eternal felicity, as
indeed many aro already doing, until the;
closing period of life. Tho uncertainty that
hangs over to-morrow is intended to stir us
up to n wise and prompt improvement of tho
present. It is a solemn truth that there are
promises for to-morrow. " Now is the ao-
cepted timo and to-day is tho day of salva
tion." And the use we aro making of to-day
is determining the use that God will mako of
us to-morrow.
