THE SHENANDOAH WATER CASE After Bomo Argument and Con sultation it 1b Postponed Ibr Two Week Points Made by the Water Company. Speelal Herald Correspondence. Pottsvillk, Fell. 0, 1803. HE motion courtopenod ot 10 a. m. to-day with Judge Bechtcl nlouo on tlio bench. Shortly af ter court opened the sud and thrilling news reached tho court that Judge Green, who hail MfQTW ,his ,nornmB stricken down with paralysis. Tlio announcement camo like lightning from a clear sky and many wore the expressions of regret among tho members of tho bar at this serious turn in tho health of this popular Judge. Judgo Green's health has not been good for Bomo time, but nothing of this kind was looked for. With bnt ono Judgo In con dition to occupy tho bench the work of court will bo very much impeded, but Jndge Bech tol, quick, Industrious and courteous, meets tho heap of work turned upon him with rare ability. Argument of the Shenandoah water case was fixed for to-day. Attorneys Ryon and lionnlug were again before court asking for n continuance. Messrs, Schnlck and romo- roy opposed any further postponement and Judgo Bechtcl said that in tlio absence of nn agreement by couutol, or of legal ground, for continuance, ho would direct argument of the question to proceed. In thoaftcrnoon the case came up agaiu, when counsel agreed to Monday, February 20, for argument. A now feature has doveloped in this case, viz: that the Act of 1874 .under which tho Borougl: Council proceeded to increase its indebted ness 13 not constitutional, because tho section of said Act under which they proceeded is special legislation, and that tho Chief Bur gees should presido at meetings of Council and attest its ordinances, and not an ollicer elected by Council. These points have been unearthed by Attorney Uollopetcr, counsel for the Water Company, and are pronounced "tough" nuts for the borough's counsel to crack.

Tlic scribe hud little less th nn 3,000 votes to count and they ran tlio grand total up very close to the 30,000 mark. The New York Prai boasts of the great number of votes it received in its teachers' contest aud is Jubilant because on Saturday last it received 4,000 votes. We can beat it. On Friday last we received over G,C00 votes. The big records made yesterday were : Miss Wasley, 879; Miss Balrd, 513; Miss Connelly, 463; Frauk B. Williams, 310; Mary A. Stack, 221; Agnes Stein, 10G; Anna M. Dengler, 103. Tlio now namos added to tho record table to-day aro those of Misses Lizzie O'Connell and Liagie Lche, each having more than ono hundred votes to their credit on the recoid book, . Tho changes made among tho leaders by yestorday's returns were that Miss Wasloy again went Hp into third place, Mi Stein went back to fourth, and Mr. Williams ox changed places with Miss Fairehlld. "Hustler" gavo tho contest tho following complimentary notice In the A'eioH on Sun day: "I notice thatthoHEUAt-D's touchers' contest Is booming. It is n most excellent movo on tho part of th.H paper and will give f attsfsction to nil concerned. If I were a business man. I would bo conne -ted with It in some manner to the extent of 810 at least. It Is a great adver tisement for business houses for six months, Unlike those that have already contributed prizes, I would not give mine to th two high est the World's Fair Is enough forthem. The 3d, 4th, Sth, Stb, 7th, &c are all entitled to recognition benidos by so doing it will have a tendency to keep all our teachers in the race up to the last moment The Shenandoah busi ness man who doesn't see a golden opportunity lu this contest Is to be pitied for his near-sight- dnoss," "Hustler's" suggestlous are good. We do not think that in a contest liko this tbe win ners should receive all the spoils. But tho contest is young yet. We may make an an nouncement in a week or two that will give some of the competitors down tho lino ample encouragement. According to the Shenandoah correspondent of tho Fottsvllle Chronicle the contest has moused universal cnthus'Miu north of the Broad Mountain, but a "certain" club that claims its favorite was not credited with all tho votes sent in is murmuring loudly. If tills "tertain" club has any cause for complaint and will make it known to the contest editor Ave will try to rectify tho mistake, if any has been made. We know of uouo and do not believe we have deprived any contestant of any votes. The correspondent also complains that the Herald has been printing coupons with the name of "a contestant" printed on them. Wo did this last week ou tho understanding that the cost of printing tho name in the coupons would bo $1 per thousand in addition to the charge of ono cent for each copy of tho Herald containing such coupon. The friends of saveral other contestants secured rubber stamps with which to stamp the name of their favorites upon the slips. Tho cost of a mbber stamp is much less than paying $1 !cr thousand for having the name printed, but the friends of "a contestant" were willing to stand the additional expense, and in that case what could tho Herald do but accept the order? Any of the contestants could have made tbe same arrangement, but since some ot them are not willing to accept such an arrangement other than in a light of un lalrnoss (and we see no reason why any reasonable person should) we have concluded to decline to print auy more names on coupons. In conclusion I would say that tho Chrm tele correspondent does us a great injustice and does not place himself in a very favor able light when he says the contest should receive the contempt of tho public because It has gravitated into a contest between wealth and honestly acquired popularity. The sen. timent Bavors of the demagogue. We had aud have no power to draw the line on any contestant because of wealth, arced, color or nationality. The onttst Is open to all aud thoso who entered it had ample- time to acquaint themselves with all the conditions. as thoy were liberally advertised for two weeks before the oontetit opened. we think that pwpio who are acting in a spirit of fairness and good faith and really wish to see the contest conducted on a fair basts and as such be successful will take ad- (Oo'iHnueii on fourth iagt.) JUDGE IS A STROKE OF APOPLEXY PROVED FATAL. ABLE LAWYER, SOLDIER AND JUDGE General Bereavement Caused by tho Announcement of His Death Brief Sketch of the Deceased. EATH followed the snd don illness with which Judgo (Irccn was seized at his home In Potts vlllc yesterday morn ing iw ho was making arrangements to start for the court house and Uko liis scat on tho bench, in the excite ment that followed the report of the illness thostroko was Hashed over tho wiies to different parts of the county as paralysis, hut It was npoplexy. Judge Green complained of vertigo on Sundny, but passed n comfortn- blo night. Ho arose at about 7:30 yesterday morning and whilo drcfsiugagaln eomplalncd of extremo dizziness. Dr. Boyer, tbe family physician, was summoned aid shortly after a message was sent to the court houfo that Judge Green wns dangerously ill. The able jurist died at O.iif o'clock last night. His family was prepared for the end, as tho family physician gavo no hopo for recovery from tlio first. Dr. Boyer suys that death was caused by progressive apoplexy, having four distinct paroxysms of congestion. About two hours after tho first attack the Judge complained of n slight numbness in the right side of his face and right hand. This numbness in croased, tlio speech beenmo affected and con siderable difficulty was experienced in swal lowing. At about noon there wns a slight spasm on tlio right side nnd at 1:30 the spasm became severe snd general. The Judge then lost consciousness aud remained in that state until tho end. Judge Green's death Is mourned through out this seotion. He was recognized as ono of tho best citizens and most nblo jurists in tho state and stood pre-eminent in the history of Schuylkill county. His prominence in judicial circles caused the prominent men of nil parties to consider him entitled to a seat on the Supremo Court bench. Judgo David B. Green was born in Read ing, Berks county, December 22ud, 1831. After graduating from the schools of that city ho entered Yale College aud graduated from there In 1852. He then took up the study of law in Reading and was admitted to the bar In January, 1855. In tho following April ho moved to Pottsville and soon established a lucrative practice. In 1802 the then brilliant young lawyer was appointed adjutant of tho 12!)tli regiment Pennsylvania Volunteers, attached to tho 5th army corps, and entered Into active service. He served nine months with the regiment, which took part in the second Bull Run bat tle, at tho Iwttlos of Antietam, Fredericks burg and Cbaiicellorsville. In the summer of 1803, whon Pennsylvania was invaded by the rebel force and emergency regiments were organized the deceased was appointed lieutenant-colonel of the 27th Pennsylvania regiment and served with it until mustered out of service tho August following. Mr. Green then resuniod the practice oi law in Pottsville and in 1&5 he formed a partnership with Hon. Lin Bartholomew. This continued until 18G6, when it was dis solved by mutual consent. In 1807 Mr. Green was appointed Judgo of the Criminal Court for Schuylkill, Dauphin and Lebanon counties by Governor John W. Geary and in tho fall of that 3 ear he war. nominated by the Republican iarty for th saino position and elected, the tenn being three years. Major Ellis was the Democratic nominee. Upon the amendment of the constitution in 1874 this court was abolished and Judge Green was made Judge of the Court of Com mon Pleas of Schuylkill county for tho un expired term of bis commission. In the full of 1877 the Republicans again nominated Judge Green, but he was defeated aud suc ceeded by the then Senator O. P. Bechtel. In 1881 Judgo Giecn was again nominated by tho Republleans upon tho expiration of Judge Walker's commission and he defeated James B. Reilly. In 1891 the Republicans again nominated him for the same office and the election resulted in the defeat of George J. Wadlinger, tho Democratic candidate. Judgo Green had served one year, one month and three days of his last term. In consequence of Judge Green's death Governor Pattison will be required to make an appointment for the vacancy. The ap pointee, will serve until January, 18114, "when tbe nominee who may be elected in the election of November next will bench. take the USE DANA'S SAESAPABILLA, m "THE KIND THAT CUBES." Obituary.
