Foremun llurned by Gas.
Oeorge W. Thomas, insido foreman of the
Gilberton colliery, was severely burned about
tho hands and less severely about tho neck
and faco by an explosion of gas in the mines
at about noon yesterday. A number of
miners wore engaged in robbing pillars be
tween tho second and third lifts when there
were rushes of air which mado
them fearful that an explosion had
occurred somewhero in tho minos. They
quit wore. Thomas went in the workings to
investigate and returned along tho gangway
when an explosion occurred. Tnomas threw
himself Into the ditch and probably saved
himself from fatal burns. After tho forco of
tho explosion had subsided Thomas regained
his feet and hurried to tho bottom of the
shaft. It is bcliovod that gas accumulated In
old workings where air currents wero cut off
by falls. The explosion occurred quite a dls-
tanco beyond tho point where Thomas was
burned, and ho received what miners call
the tail end of It.

T, Leo, Solicitor Burke, Truant Officer mtth
and Tax Collector Burko wero alsu present at
the opening of tho session.
Tho first business taken up was the con
sideration of Tax Collector Burke's new
bond, which was referred hark by the County
fommissionurs for tho approval of tho Hoard.
It was approved.
Tho report of tho Library Trustees was
read, showing that tho nffaiM aro In n very
gratifying and encouraging rnmlltiou. fhero
are 3,078 books on baud and 101 outsido.
Thcro aro also 152 books In tho High school
library.
Superintendent J. W. Cooper presented tho
following report : Tho tenth mouth of the
school year closed with tho following results:
Monthly enrollment Boys, 1203; girls. 1317;
total, 2355. Avorago daily attendance Boys,
1014; girls, 1103; total, 2209. Percentage of
attendance Boys, 03; girls, 01; total, 02.
Tbero were 703 pupils in attendance at overy
session. Sevcuty-fivo visits were made by
itizens and fifteen by Directots. The yearly
results divert very little from that of the
previous year. During the school year end
ing May 10, 1893, wo had an enrollment of
boys, 1530; girls, 1C02; total, 32.il. During
the school year ending Juno 2, 1800, we had
an enrollment of bojs, 1532; girls, lCOl;
total. 3223, a loss of 23. Our percentage for
1807 OS was boys, 03; girls, 91; total, 02. For
1S93-09 boys, 03; girls, 00; total, 01. When
wo consider how our town was snow bound
for three days, and how tho North Main
street fire emptied our schools, wo must
grant that our results aro quite satisfactory.
The office belloves that if tho Truant Officer
was instructed to proceed against somo parties
for non-attendauco both our enrollment and
our percentage would havo surpassed tho of
the previous year.
Truant Officor James Smith's report was as
follows: During tho last month ending June
2nd, I visited tho homes of 313 absent pupils.
The reasons given for the abscuco of most of
the pupils was sickness. Tho other absentees
I compelled to attend school. My work has
been rotarded a good deal tho past school
term by tho County Commissioners, thoy not
furnishing our superintendent with a list of
children in tho borongh between tho ages of
0 and 10, tlio law stating thoy should do so.
Thcro wero 15 cases of truancy durins tho
month. These pupils I put back in school.
Director Whitaker made tho report for tho
finance commitee, in which ho complimented
tho Board upon tho policy of economy fol
lowed during tho year and also referred in
complimentary terms to Tax Collector Burko
for assistance rendered the Board in making
prompt payments on his dupllcato.
Borough Solicitor Burko stated that tho
caso of tho School Board against Tax Col
lector Scaulan and his 1800 bondsmen was
argued beforo the court yesterday and sub.
mittcd.
Tbero being no other business on tho tablo
the Board was declared adjourned sine die,
Hon John F. Uiggins, tho retiring Director,
M. M. Burke, Esq., and Mr. James Smith
withdrew.
THE NEW BOARD.
Director Hanna called tho mooting to order
and Director Leo moved that Director Mar
shal Baugh act as temporary chairman.
Director Martin seconded tho motion, and it
was carried.
Director Dove moved tnat Director Frank
Hanna act as temporary secretary, the motion
boing seconded by Director Malick. It was
carried.
The secretary then read tho oaths of office
of the nowly olected Directors, they being
Messrs. Michael Sullivan, Harry E. Keiper,
George Holvey, Michael I. Korrigan and
John T. Leo.
At this point Director Coughlln arose and
was accorded permission to speak. He said
Before taking a ballot on the organization
of the Board I would liko to say a few words.
I am here, in conjunction with Mr. Britt, as
the representatives of the Democratic party.
and prepared to placo a third slate in the
field composed of good, sound Democrats
We havo found that deal after deal has
placed us In this position."
Director Whitaker jurapod to his feet ex
claiming, "I raise a point of order. That has
nothing to do with tho transaction of public
business,"
Chairman Baugh said: "I declare tho
members whose certificates wero read mem
bors of tho Board. The next in order is tho
nomination of permanent officers."
Tho declaration was accepted as a con fir ma.
tion of tho point of order nnd Director
Coughlln was very much disappointed in not
having succeeded In getting his full address
before the Board,
Tho permanent organization was then pre.
ceeded with, but not with serenity that has
attended similar meetings of tho Board in
past years. There was a hitch and a hot ex
change In the very outstart. Director Holvey
nominated. Director Kolpor for permanent
president, Director Britt nominated Director
Coughlln, and Director Breslin named Direc
tor Whitaker, When the secretary started,
tho foil call Director SulHvan objected to
beini; called upon to vote first. Ho claimed
that, being tho last elected, his name should
appear third in the list of First ward mem
bers, tnd that should bp hit order of voting.
Superintendent Cooper arose and stated
that he bad made the copies of the ballot
sheets and had taken tho names from tho old
Royal
Absoluteey Ipuce
Makes the food more delicious ond wholesome
torn bakino
list without glvlng-tho order of names any
consideration, and that tho placing of Mr.
Sullivan's name first in the list was not In
tentional.
Tho explanation did not have tho concilia
tory effect upon Director Sullivan that was
expected. Ho still objected to being called
upon first, whorcupon Director Dovo motetl
that tho Board voto according to tho list
undo out. Director Malick seconded the
motion and Director Whltakor took n hand
in tho matter. He mid that ho noticed the
namo of Director Lee, n newly elected mem
ber, was third In tho list of Fifth ward mem
bers, and that compared with tho position of
Mr. Sullivan's name seemed to givo color to
tho opinion that the plarlng of tho latter
namo was not wholly accidental.
Superintendent Cooper becamo nettled and
replied to Director Whitaker with some
spirit. Ho said the position of Director Lee's
namo was due to tho fact that it wasan added
ono, not having appeared on last year's list,
and ho called attontion to the fact that the
names of Messrs. Keiper and Holvoy, nowly
elected Directors, appeared tho samo as Mr.
Sullivan's first In tholr respective wards,
whivh was ample proof that there was no In
tentional arrangement. Ho protested against
insinuations.
Director Whitaker was contented with the
explanation nnd said no insinuation was in
tended. Had bo desired to make insinua
tions, ho said, thoy would havo been made
clearly. This ended tho discussion and the
motion prevailed. But Director Sullivan re
mained obdurate and cast no voto during the
reorganization.
Director Keiper was olected president He
received 0 votes. Directors Hanna, Keiper,
Baugh, Malick, Holvoy, Dove, Martin, Lee
and Connors voted together throughout tho
proceedings. Director Coughlln received 2
votos, his own and Director Britt's. Director
Whitaker received 3, his own and thoso of
Directors Kerrigan and Breslin.
President Helper mado a briof address
when ho took tho chair, thanking tho Board
for the honor conferred upon him and assur
ing tho members that ho would do all in his
power to conduct tho affairs in a proper
manner.
The balance of tho nominations and elec
tions were as follows :
Secretary Hanna nominated by Dovo,
Britt by Cougblin and Kerrigan by Whlt
akor. Hanna elected, receiving 0 votes.
Coughlln and Britt voted for Britt, and Ker
rigan, Breslin and Whitaker voted for Ker
rigan. Treasurer W. Thomas Leo nominated by
Malick, James McLoughlin by Kerrigan and
Thomas W. Convlllo by Britt. Lee elected.
receiving 0 votes. Cougblin and Britt voted
for Conville, and Kerrigan, Breslin and
Whitaker for McLoughlin.
Solicitor M. M. Burko was nominated by
Connors and J. R. Coylo by Whitaker. Burke
received 11 votes and was declared elected.
Kerrigan, Breslin and Whitaker cast their
votes for Coyle, while Coughlin and Britt
voted with the slate nino.
Truant Officor Michael Connors was
nominated by Martin, James Smith by
Breslin and .John J. Scanlan by Britt.
Connors was elected, receiving nino votes.
Kerrigan, Breslin and Whitaker voted for
Smith, nnd Coughlin and Britt for Scaulan.
Tho torms of Hon. Patrick Conry and
Monroe H. Kehler as members of tho Board
of Library Trustees expiring, elections wero
proceeded with. Kehler was nominated by
Martin and Conry by Hanna. On motion of
W hltaker tho olections wore made by accla
matlon.
The next hitch was on tho question of
salaries. Director Dovo moved that tho
Secretary bo paid $00 per month, tho Solicitor
be paid a retainer of $50 per year, tho Truant
Officer $2 for each school day, and tho Treas
urer f 200 per year.
Director Whitaker opposed tho advance of
tho secretary's salary from a standpoint of
economy.
Director Dovo said tho salary was tho same
as previously fixed, but last August Secretary
Hanna voluntarily conceded a reduction of
$5 por month, to assist tho Board's policy
of economy. In doing this, however, he ex
pected that ho would bo given the writing of
the duplicate, as usual. Tho Board subse
quently concluded that this was not legal
and the secretary was obliged to pay for the
writing of tho dupllcato out of his own
pocket, in addition to conceding tho reduc
tion of salary. It was for this reason, said
Director Dovo, that ho considered It only
fair that tho salary should bo restored to tho
former figure,
Tho voto on the motion was taken by roll
call. It was carried by a voto of 10 to 2.
Director Coughlin and Britt voted with tho
slato nino and Directors Bro3liu and Whitaker
voted against the motion. DirectorsSullivan
and Korrigan refrained from voting.
On motion of Director Dove it was decided
that a committee of threo bo appointed to
reviso the present rules of tho Board where
changes may bo deemed advisable, or neces
sary, tho old rules to govern ponding a report
and adoption.
President Keiper said ho would announce
his appointment of committeos at tho regular
meeting to bo held to-morrow evening, and
tho Board adjourned.

Philadelphia, Juno C Frnnk Thom
son, president of the Pennsylvania
Railroad company, died at 7:30 o'clock
last avonlng at his homo at Merlon,
a few mllos out of the city. Mr. Thom
son had b&en 111 about two weeks. Ho
returned to his home on May 20 from
a tour of Inspection, which he, with
othor olllclnls of the company, had
mado over tho main and leased linos
of tho Ponnsylvania railroad syatom.
The trip had occupied about a week.
Upon his return homo ho was Buffer
ing from acute Indigestion, and at onco
took to his bed and placed himself In
the hands of his physician. Mr. Thorn
ton had onjoyed extraordinary good
health and his rolatlves and friends
believed he would soon rally and re
cover from his Indisposition. His death
was rather sudden and was wholly un
expected. Mr. Thomson was 58 years
of age, and since he reached tho ago
of 16 years had been in tho service
nt the great railroad company of which
ho had been tho head during tho last
two years of his life, ho having suc
ceeded to tho presidency In 1897, upon
tho death of Georgo 13. Roberta.

He developed tho high grado or dis
cipline which marks the administra
tion of the Pennsylvania railroad In
every department, and a widely dif
ferent talent was shown In the diplo
matic and delicate relations with other
trunk Hues and systems when ho waa

Slnco his youth Mr. Thomson was
noted for his tact and ability to win
tho regard of all with whom ho camo
In contact. Ho had always loyal sup
port from his employes and co-workers.
During tho term of the lato Presi
dent George B. Roberts ho was re
garded as the diplomat of the system,
and trying and vexatious questions
were deftly and satisfactorily settled
by Mr. Thomson. Ho had a wldo ac
quaintance among the public men of

American was so widely known among
foreign men of affairs.
Mr. Thomson was ono of the most
popular men of prominence in Phila
delphia. Ills social life was the most
attractive side of his peculiarly at
tractive character. He was a lover of
