Investigated by the Lamp and Watch
Committee.
THE TESTIMONY PEODUOED.
Joseph Temple Says he Saw the Police
Drink Boor Tho Accused and
the Aliened Uoorteuder
Deny the Story.
The lamp and watch comtnltteo of the
Borough Council met in the Council
chamber Saturday night to investigate the
charges made at the last meeting of Council
by Councilman Gable against Chief of
l'oliceTosh and Patrolman Walaltls. It
it believed from the result of the investiga
tion that the committee will make a report
in favor of the accused officers.
The investigation was attended by
Messrs. Gafllgau, Kerns and D. R. James,
members of the committee, Councilman
Gable, Joseph Temple, who . was the
informer, and the accused pollcemeu.
Temple stated that ou the night In ques
tion he drank beer out of the same keg in
the Columbia brewery from which Tosh
and Walaltls received beer, and that the
officers drank three glasses each. He said
he stood but ten feet from the officers, but
they did not, see(hlm, aud that the beer was
handed out by a man named Clark, au em
ploye of the brewery.
Clark was sent for and appeared. Ho
denied every part of Temple's story and
said he saw Tosch at the brewery several
times, butnotnttho time stated by Temple.
Once Tosh called him from bed to attend
a horse which was sick, and another time
Tosh called ou legal business
Councilman Gable asked the character of
the legal business aud Clark refused to
state it.
Temple said his reason for reporting the
officers was because Tosh had reported that
some of the 'firemen were drunk at the
recent big fire.
Clark said the police never got a drink of
beer at the brewery that he knew of.
Policemen Tosh and Walaitis emphati
cally denied the charge. The former said
he courted the fullest Investigation that it
was possible for the cointnitteo to make.
Ho asked If .there were objections" to' tHo4,turllntne.oincerand dragged him into
police taking a drink, or two glasses of
beer, and said ho would swear that Temple
never saw him take a glass of beer either
In the brewery, or any other place in the
county.
Chief Tosh now has his war paint on and
says the police would like to know if the
P. Si It. C. & I. Co. keeps men to watch
tho police, and if men employed by it drink
free beer while in their working clothes
and should be at work on the night shift,
are not subject to investigation.

Important Matters Which tho L'eoplo
Talk About.
COMPLAINT ON THE LOOKUP
A Llttlo Ureezo In Educational Circles.
School Directors Make Somo Dis
coveries That nro Not Pleasing-Election
ofTcucUors.
Much indignation is expressed over tho
condition of the lockup. The complaint
not only comes from people who have beon
compelled to servo time In the cells, but
from people who have escaped that mis
fortune and have had occasion to visit the
place. A gentleman of the legal pro
fession says the borough runs a risk of
suits for damages by maintaining such a
place for imprisonment. Ho says that
while the law does not expect that Inmates
of tho place shall be provided with up
holstered couches and that the floors of tho
cells shall be covered with velvet carpets,
it expects that a placo of imprisonment
shall be such as is fit for a human being,
and the prosent quarters are certainly uot
up to ,that standaid. The complaint Is
certainly not without justification,
Tho authorities must admit that
the lockup is a disgrace to the
community. It has been such from
the time of its erection. In tho first place,
it is too small. There are times when
prisoners are packed in the cells like swine
and all grades are mingled. The police
themselves are ashamed of the place and
there havo been times when their conscience
compelled them to convert the Council
chamber into a prison. As a model for
sanitary regulation the lockup Is a complete
failure and as a place for securely confin
ing prisoners it is no better. This has
been shown by the number of escapes
during the past"year. A desperate criminal
wlh a desire it, escape can afford to laugh
at the locks and bai-viwd several of them
have done so. It would be well for the
authorities to give a now prison somo
consideration.
The School Board will hold a regular
meeting next Wednesday evening and an
olectlooCaeacherajuitLjanltors for the
next school term will take placo. It
promises to be interesting. Thc-e are
twenty applicants for appolutmei.'- as
school teachers and twenty-three lor janl.
torshlps, besides the applicants now
filling the positions. There will bo
two vacancies in the corps of teach
ers. Mr. Scueuhlne and Miss Leho
will not be applicants for . re-eleistlou,
The former has gone to Philadelphia to
study pharmacy aud the latter retires from
the profession in contemplation of matri
mony. It is rumored that tho rules of the
board so far as they apply to the teachers
will be rigidly enforced during the next
term. This, it is said, is due to a discovery
by some of the School Directors that
advantage has been taken by somo of the
teachers. It is claimed that during the
past term schools were frequently dismissed
before the proper time and that some
teachers have been sharing in the wages
paid substitutes for teaching iu their
absence. The ground is taken that tho
share of wages a substitute surrenders to a
teacher belongs to tho board j that If a
substitute Is willing to take a teacher's
place for 81.50 a day the board should uot
be required to pay f 3.
The test of the public wator works pipos
has again been postponed. The contractor

Run colliery workings aro caving in and
endangering the pipe line leading from tho
reservoir. The Borough Council will moet
tonight and the situation will probably bo
betterunderstood when the Superintendent
roports.
