Robert Raudenbush's Narrow
Escape From Death.
A VERY TIMELY REOT
limbing gul Threw Him on' ill. r..t
Hlitl Was Crrjhc Mini UunldlT to tin
Death Dtallag IlullerAllalun Wilt. a
Kflrnt) W ftlatlo.
Robert Haudcnbush, 17-year-old son of
Stablo Boss Frank ltaudenbusb, of North
West street, wonders how it is thnt he is
still alive.
When ho reached his home yesterday it
seemed to him that he had just returned
from the grave and this curious sensation
was due to a miraculous escapo he had
from n plunge Into eternity during the
afternoon.
Kaudenbush is employed in tho breaker
of the Turkey Huu colliery and it is
his duty to keep the bars of tho dump
chute clear.
Yesterday afternoon, just as a big
load of coal was dumped into tho chute,
the young man lost his footing and went
sliding down over tho bars and alone
the chute with tho debris.
The trip seemed a denth journey for
Itaudenbush, as he was being forced
down by tho running coal to the lower
end of tho chute, where the incessantly
working rollers would crunch his body
into mlnco meat. He realized this and
yelled lustly for help. His calls were
heard none too soon, for he was but a
short distance from tho rollers when a
couple of tho employes succeeded in stay
ing his progress and gettiug him out of
the chuto.
The whole thine transpired within such
a short space of time that It was im
possible to have the breaker machinery
stopped before the rescue was made and
had not succor arrived when it did ltau
denbusb must surely have been killed.
One of his ankles was broken and he was
protty badly bruised.
People not acquainted with tho work
ings of a breaker, but who have seen the
thrilling situation of the hero in "The
Diamond Breaker," havo but a slight
conception of ltaudonbush's awful posi
tion. It seems a coincident that the
sceno of this play, which wns produced
here but recently, should he partly en
acted In real life and in one of tho local
breakers.

ABOUT TOWN.

ltfporters.
At least two of the liro companies In
tend to ask the Borough Council for an
increased appropriation this year.
The high gales and rushing clouds of
dust compel the dry goods merchants to
withdraw their displays from the pave
ments. Workmen will begin to tear down the
Kgaii buildings atthe southeast corner of
Main and Centre streets after the Ilrit
of April.
Tho Borough Council should hold a
regular meet i tic to-night, but some of the
Counclliiieii say It may not, as there is no
Important business pending.
Considerable cleaning up about town
will be required belore the people can feel
safo from epidemics on account of sani
tary foresight. The Board of Health is
not idle and. Health Officer Miles learn
ing eve-y cent of his salary, but they
must have tho assistance of the people.
A trip through the borough, with
special attention to business places, re
veals a distressing dullness. The saloon
keepers ceem to complain the most. They
say tho license mill has been overworked
and it is hard to see how some of the
keepers manage to holdout. It is believed
that If the times do not soon improve the
peoplo who occupy rented places and do
not run boarding houses will go under.
Even the boarders may full to keep the
pot boiling if the working time at the
collieries does not improvo soon. Shen
andoah was among the last of the places
to feel the squeeze of Cleveland times,
but it is now making up for tho tlmo It
missed.
The Salvation Army, after struggling
feebly but hopefullv through tho winter
months, has had new life Instilled into
its mcetliigs and is once more prospering.
It is remarkable how this corps exists
sometimes, but it does, nevertheless. On
some nights during tho past few months
not ntorc than hlf a dozen
peoplo havo been seen In street
parade and notwithstanding the numbers
showed no Increase the leaders re-appeared
night nfter night, singing im strong, pray
ing as fervently mid banging away as
energetically as though followed by a
hundred or more converts. The survivors
have always found friends among the
poorer classes, who share their svm
jmthles and bread with the officers. 'The
latter speak very kindly of this help and
have frequently said that some of the
most generous people in proportion to
means they have met are In Shenandoah.
Continued Micrrn.
"New England Folks" was the title of
a piny produced at Ferguson's theatre
last night by Mnurlce Drew's nhtvers
supporting Lizzie May Ulmer. It was
witnessed by a good-sized audience and
made h- good impression, Mss Ulmer
nnd Mr. Drew had roles which were both
pathetic and humorous nnil thev created
considerable fun. To-night "The I)an
ites," thnt strong comedy drama of West
ern mining which always draws so well
In Shenandoah, will be produced with a
full cat and completescenic effects. Tho
management announces that .Messrs.
Waters nnd Casey have been especially en

The accused have met tho accusers,
have confessed to some actions, denied
others, received reprimands, made pro
mises ror the future, ami are back to their
studies again.
This is n summary of the result of the
case In which the six pupils of the High
school were implicated.
The boys and their parents met the
High School committee, Superintendent
Whilnkcr and Principal Cooper in the
superintendent's olllce last night and had
a long talk over the charges against the
boys, all of whom said that, so far as the
cock lighting charge was concerned, they
were guilty only as to being spectators
drawn to the cock pit b . mere curiosity,
and that they had no interest in the light
ing birds, nr tho outcome of the battle.
There were statements, examinations,
and cross-examinations about other
charges against tho boys, but the com
mittee decided that the offenses to which
the boys pleaded guilty, which were really
only acts of indiscretion, did not seem to
warrant a continuance of the suspensions
which went into effect last Monday after
noon, nnd that n requirement of extra
studies would be sullicicnt punishment.
The bovs annealed before Siini'i-lnii.tnt.
ent Whitaker this morning nnd were told
of the decision, They went buck to their
clashes promising to not cause any more
charges.
Superintendent Whitaker anil Prbici
Cooper say that, as soon as the cock
lighting episode was referred to In the
new-paper an lnestlgntion was begun,
resulting in the discovery of other
charges, many of which fell through bo
cause, if no foundation, or of exaggeration.
However, sullicient wns discovered to

pun-tits npd pupils. It is believed there
win oo no occasion lor complaints In the
future.
Since these cases have been brought, in
notice there lias been 'otne discussion as
to what, if nnv, jurisdiction the superin
tendent, or the School Board, lias over
pupils before or after school hours
i'ago ns ot tlie Common School
Lawi of 1'ennsvlvnnla nrovliles. "Tin.
jurisdiction and authority of the te-iclier
over tho pupil are neither limited by the
school house walls, nor to the time the
school Is actually In session. As ageneral
rule, in nil matters legitimately connected
with the schools nnd the manners and
morals of the scholars, the teacher's
jurisdiction, conjointly with thnt of tho
parent, commences when pupils leavo tho
parental roll and control to go lo school,
and continues until th'- return from
school. Tho teacher, ho Mr, is not re
sponsible for the misconduct of ptipllson
the way to nnd from school, though he
lias the riuht to minish for such miscon
duct, when brought to his knowledge."
