PENN KING WINS I A Itellahle Statement of Ilmr the Heer Interests Down the Valley Ilecome Vested In One Family Ilemler Is the Wholesaler, Ills Htep-Father the lietaller. Louis Bender, "the king of Wm Penn," as he is called, won a litigation nt Potts ville yesterday, Tho case was a com plicated one, although the point at issue hinged upon a saloon license. Bender, on application of It. M. Bnrke, Esq., obtained a transfer of the wholesale license held by Andrew Mack. This license Mack held as agent ot the local brewing company. A representative of the com pany, accompanied by Mack and counsel, appeared before Jndge Bechtel at cham bora on Tuesday of last Week and entered a Erotutt against the transfer. The transfer ad been mnde before Judge Wcldman and tho fact that the man who had mnde the transfer repudiated the act naturnllv aroused the suspicion of t e court and for that reason tne case causes oiucn interest, by Bender making a personal Htntement to the court and did It in such a mnnncr ns to wipe out the ire of the tribunnl and score a victory. Mack claimed that ho did not, in any war. auree with Bender thnt the license should be transferred and upon the show ing no made ueiore .lunge iiecntel the browing company decided to ask for a rule to show cause why the transfer should not be revoked. The proceeding was nn unusual one. such asinvolved the good faith of counsel, out it was cieany snown mat the court hnd not been Intentionally imposed upon. At the time of the transfer of the wholesale license to Bender the transferee bad his retail license transferred to his step-father. On the face it appeared as though Bender proposed to control both the wholesale and retail licenses nnd crowd Mnck out of the business, but when the matter came up in court Bender made a statement In which he set forth that he loaned Mack the money with which the wholesale license had been taken up when granted nt the last term of court, nnd nad loaned Mack other money lor teams and outllt tor delivering beer. In consideration of these loans Mnck agreed to transfer the wholesale license. a. (i. M. Hollopeter, Esq., epposed Bender on the cround that he had been selling by wholesale and retail previous to the transfer and now proposed to con trol the retail nnd wholesnle business un der hiB own license and the license of his step-father. But at the eleventh hour Mr. Hollopeter stated to the court thnt an amicable adjustment hnd been made be tween Bender and the brewing company and that the company would not nsk for the rule to set aside the transfer ot the license. Mr. Bender also appeared in court nnd stated that he would uso the wholesale license only ns neent for the brewlnt; company and thn' c hnd no in terest whatever in the bu- .-.s conducted by his stop-father. The court thereupon decided that Bender Bhould retalu the license held. COURT NEWS, Cases Disponed uf by Judges at rottsvllle Yesterday, The trial of John Snyder, chnrged on oath of Thomas J.

Ilavo Children Practice Military Tactic In the Ncliools, This is tho Reason of the year when tho people And time to discuss the progreu and prospects of the public schools, be cause the closing of the term brings with It n review of tho work done during the yenr nnd discussions of arrangements for thenowtcrm. It was in this connection that the question of having military tactics substituted for calisthenics In the public schools was taken up by a few of our citizens the other evening. It was recalled that at the last encamp ment of the Grand Army of the Republic thero was adopted a recommendation that the children of the public schools b taught military tactics, so that In care tho rising generation of the land shonli. be called upon to defend tho country with force of arms the young blood will have some Idea of the tactics required. Hon. Patrick Conry, president of thp School Board, said the other evening tl at he was in favor of the Idea. He thought that by the tactics the children would not only acquire the healthful exercises which is derived from the present system of cal isthenics, but they would nlso secure the great ndvantage of a military training which might somo day be put to very good practical use. l'KNCII.

The extension of the electric railway to the cemeteries is a subject of debate just now. If tho Schuylkill Trnctlon Com pany makes the move It may prevent the Rlngtown company going ahead. A DttmnTHt' Opinion. A prominent Democrat of this county who is credited with possessing good i-ense nnd with being n level-headed busl ness man as well ns a close observer of county and state politics, expresses the opinion thnt James 11. Reilly will not go back to Congress again unless the Repub licans nii.ke an Indiscreet nomination. As to the Senutorship he thinks King will lead the Democrats nnd that Coyle is the only man the Republicans can put up with a chance "f beating the ex Senntor. He says the I.ivubllcans will receive this yenr votes thry could not claim before, on nccouht 1 1 the tariff question; and that the only sa.vntlon left for the Demo cratic party Is to hurry up its Congress nnd end tne tune Klllllic (leiiates ou tne the tariff nuestion bv n hsinu some bill. The longer Congress remnius in session the worse tho chances of the Democratic party becomes, ho thinks. s. 11 l iittl.d. The strike of the Italians on the nubile wnter works employed bysub-contractors McAdara Is still unsettled. It is under stoQ(Mhnt the contractors are in no hurry for a compromise because there is little or nothing for the men to do at the present tints, owing to n delay on the part of the Ilorough Council or water committee to decide on the kind of pipe that will be used on the mountain. It is said a flange pipe will be required. The question will proimuiy ue decided at tne meeting ot Council to-morrow night. Lectured to Ktuden's. Yesterday Dr. G. M.
