It is claimed that owing to tbo refusal of tho County Commissioners to Instruct the various Assessors to make the proper enroll ment of scholars in their districts, tho county Is in groat danger of losing one-third of the stato appropriation fur the year ending Juno 1st, 1898. under the Act of Assembly gov erning the distribution of tho school funds, the Commissioners arc required to have the Assessors make an enrollment of tho total number of children in their districts, be tween me ages ot six anu sixteen, as one third of the stato appropriation is appor tioned In accordance with tho number of children of school ago. The Commissioners claim that one assessment was made in the Bpring of this year, and that tbo require ments or this law are unnecessary and would require an expenditure of about f2,- 800.00. Tho state pauropriatlou for Schuyl kill county is $170,411.05, a loss of ono third would mean nearly $00,000. The matter was brought to the attention of tho School Di rect ore J u annual session at Mahanoy City. and when asked for an opinion State Super intendent is. u. Bcuaetler stated that it was necessary that the assessment bo made, and suggested the appointment of a committee to iavoko the Influence of tho people and tho publlo press to compel tho Commissioners to comply with the law.

The cages of ez-.Secittary of State Frank Reeder, of this city, and Representative Wains nnd Maurice Luckenbach, of Bethlehem, against whom charge of conspiracy to commit bribery and to defame the oharacter of John Wanamaker were preferred, were to have been heard by the grand Jury yesterday, but the ab sence of W. A. WlnBboro, upon whose affidavit the information against the defendants was lodged, caused a post ponement. Apart from - this the pro ceedings were sensational and ended In the withdrawal of Lawyer William C. Shlpman, of the prosecution, from the case. The suit Is the outcome ot the sena torial fight of last January, when Bolos Penrose and John Wanamaker Wers pitted against each other for tire honor. The prosecution, which Is sustained by Fred Van Valkenburg, had an Imposing array of counsel. It Included, beeld Lawyer Shlpman, Judge O. H. Myers, Charles S. Hergner and Major George W. Merrick, of Tioga county, and Harry Mackey, of Philadelphia. Gen eral W. B. Doster, who represented the commonwealth, was on hand In place of District Attorney James C. Fox, the latter being relieved from the case be. cause of the social and family relations existing between him and Mr. Reeder. The defense was represented by Con gressman v. S. Kirkpatrlck, It. C. Stewart and B. J. Fox. Lawyer Shlpman made an address In timating that General Doster was act ing In the Interest of General Reeder, nnd had sent the bills of Indictment to the grand jury despite the protests of other prosecuting counsel. Judge Scott ordered the case to proceed, and then Lawyer Shlpman withdrew. Then, Mr. Wlnsboro being absent, a court ofllcer was sent In search of him and the case was adjourned until today.

They grumble at the results of caucuses which they do not attend, and they complain of the mismanagement of those whom they take no part In se lecting. It Is the duty of every man to take part In the primaries, and I think It would be wise to prohibit every man from voting who took ng part in the nominations.
