WEST CHESTER CASE
AVAS IX COURT.
Stato Asks Tliat Aormal School Trus
tees bo Restrained from Dismiss
ing Philips.
Trial of the injunction proceed
ings brought by the Attorney Gener
al's Department on behalf of the
State and the State Board of Educa
tion to restrain trustees of the State
Normal school from abrogating the
contract of Dr. G. M. Phillips as prin
cipal was begun before Judge Kun
kel and McCarrell Monday and took
all day. The State contends that Dr.
Phillips' contract is a valuable as
set of tho school which the State
will take over under purchase of
control of the stock this month, the
majority of the trustees holding in
answer that recent disclosures about
the school show that Dr. Phillips
should have known what was going
on. The trustees voted 9 to 7 to de-
VIVACIOUS MI3LODIES IN
"THE HOSE MAID."
"Tho Roso Maid" tingling with
vivacious melodies and unfolding a
story more entrancing than is gener
ally found in musical comedies, will
bo presented for tho first time in
this place at the Lyric Wednesday,
Sept. 24, fresh from Its Broadway
success. It is described as an oper
etta with songs that aid rather than
halt tho plot. Bruno Granischstaed--ten
composed the score and tho melo
dies aro never commonplace. They
are filled with "catchiness" and a
certain restlessness of rhythm that
sets the audience humming and
sends it away whistling tho pretty
air of the "Rose Song" or some oth
er song hit. Harry B. Smith, who
takes a hand In almost every musi
cal comedy produced in America,
with Robert B. Smith adapted the
book and lyrics from tho German.

N. C. Schaeffer, of ho Department of
Public Instruction, and Messrs. M. G.
Drumbaugh, William Lauder and J.
George Becht, of. tho Stato Board of
Education. Tho trustees favorablo
to Dr. Phillips filed an answer ad

and setting forth that in their opin

Tho trustees antagonistic to the
principle aro represented by Alexan

GROWTH OF FOREIGN TRADE.
According to the detailed figures
concerning tho Imports and exports
of the United States for the month
of July and tho seven months ended
with July, 1913, made public by tho
Department of Commerce, tho United
States foreign trade continues to
grow. The aggregate trade in the
seven months was ?2,316, 144,612
and shows an Increase of more than
?G4,300,000 over tho corresponding
period of 1912. This total volume
of foreign trade was divided into im
ports of ?1,01S,S71,475 and exports
of $1,327,273,137, showing a trade
balance of $308,401,602 in favor of
tho United States.
ARE YOU A
COMMUNITY ROOSTER?
So far as babies are concerned,
you know what you think of your
baby. You ought to feel that way
about your town.
No one envies a hermit. No one
will claim that that is the way to
live. Voluntarily to withdraw one's
self from society is insanity. Human
happiness requires human compan
ionship. It is hard to he happy
alone.
If a man sacrifies happiness by
withdrawing from his fellows ho
gains it the more ho mingles with
them. They are necessary to him
ho to them.
The happiest family in a commun
ity is the family that participates in
the affairs of the community. The
happiest family is the one that has
its neighbors and friends, and whose
members are interested in the wel
fare of tho town in which they live.
Unhappy Indeed is tho family each
member of which is seeking his own
happiness alone, begrudging tho time
or money that custom, if nothing
else, compels him to bestow on those
about him.

Spring Maid" to cheer every music
loving heart, has won a flattering
verdict on Its tuneful joyous music.
Some have rated it prettier than
"Tho Spring Maid" and all have giv
en it credit for alluring qualities
that bespeaks a happy evening for lo
cal music lovers who will soon have
their first opportunity to see tho per
formance. Tho story is just tho sort for a
comic opera book. A penniless
Duke, quite at the mercy of his con
tinental creditors after disinheritance
by a wealthy undo is deserted by all
save tho littlo rose girl. The arrival
on tho scene of a few millionaires

cause his bankers to concoct a
scheme to marry him off and then

who has an old score to settlo with
this group, foils them by disguising
the little rose maid as one of tho
1 heiresses, and then palming her off
as the richest of the title hunters.

HELPING SCHOOL CHILDREN.
Tho Stato Department of Health
has a big task on its hands in mak
ing a physical examination of the
children in the country districts. Dr.
Dixon well says that it is just as im
portant that the country boy nnd
girl be given healthful surroundings
as the city boy and girl.
As a rulo tho country school and
its environment aro not nearly as
sanitary as in tho city. Tho average
run of directors have no Intimate
knowledge of the conditions that
cause typhoid fever and other epi
demic diseases. I n many instances
outhouses and wells aro located in
closo proximity, a direct Invitation
to typhoid. Country children are
also handicapped with tho same phy
sical ailments. They struggle
through their studies with defects
of which tho parents aro entirely ig
norant. It is tho purpose of Dr.
Dixon to place all students on an
equal footing as far as it is possible
to do so. In thousands of cases tho
defects are curable.
Adenoids "Can bo removed, poor
sight can bo remedied, poor indiges
tion through bad teeth can bo cor
rected, and in many other ways chil
dren can be helped to tako full ad
vantage of the instruction provided.
This is the object of medical inspec
tion. The authorities can go only
half way. They cannot insist that
tho parents remedy the defects, nor
can they have the defects remedied
at tho expense of the Stato if the
parents object. The parents must
do their part. If they aro concerned
over the future of their children
they will follow up the reports of the
Inspectors by consulting expert ad
vice. ASKS i?10,000 FOR INJURIES
IN AUTO ACCIDENT.
'George Schleiermacher, of Calli
coon Center, has brought an action
for $10,000 damages against Wesley
M. Dorrer, of Hortonville, for per
sonal injuries sustained in the acci
dent resulting from the collision of
Schleiermacher's team and Dorrer's
auto stage on the road between
North Branch and Callicoon Center
on tho night of July 24th, 1912,
when both rigs went over the high
way embankment. Schleiermacher
received injuries which laid him up
in the, hospital at Port Jervis for a
long time, and which will disfigure
him for life. Robert B. McGinn, of
Jeifersonville, is the attorney for
Schleiermacher, and John Jaeger, of

There is said to bo rich fun in
the conduct of the cotorie who have
been financing the Duko, their parts
furnishing roles for a number of ex
cellent comedians. Their "Money
Talks" song Is oho of tho big hits of
tho show. In the end they aro all
out-wltted by tho little roso girl who
leads tho Duke back into tho good
graces of his old uncle and the en
joyment of the estate.
Thoro is a galaxy of pretty songs
in "Tho Roso Maid," such as the
"Moon Song" and "Roses Bloom for
Lovers," that aro hummed and whis
tled wherever the music Is heard.
The chorus is described as a rosebud
garden of girls and they aro all danc
ers of tho gaiety girl type. The two
acts aro elaborately staged, and tho
costumes are stylish in the extreme.
"The Roso Maid" promises to afford
one of the very finest treats of the
I season In this place.

JEROME ANGRY AT NEW MOVE
Latest Development Indicatas Lack of
Federal and State' Harmony Hear
ing Before Governor Felker
Necessarily Goes Over
Until Tuesday,
Littleton, N. H., Sept 17.-IInrry K.
I'haw, nearer freedom than he has
ver been since tho day he was placed
Ui the Tombs for killing Stanford
White, by u remarkable turn of tho
wheel of fortune, placed William
I'm vers Jerome, deputy attorney gen
sral of New York, In a position where
Jerotno will have to prove that Thaw
la sane before lie can got him extra
dited from the state of New Hamp
shire. This situation resulted from
an order by Judge Aldrlch, In tho
United States district court, taken
upon Thnw's Imboas corpus proceed
ing, whereby he suught freedom from
tho clutched of the New Hampshire
ullicia'ls.
No day was set for the resumption
of the hearing, Judge Aldrlch saying
that tho delay would bo "about a
week." In tho meantime Thaw will
be under tho guardianship of United
States Marshal Nute and Sheriff Drew
of Colebrook. A day for reopening
the case will be selected by agreement
between Thaw's counsel and the at
torneys for Now York stato.
The court granted tho postponement
at the request of Thaw's counsel and
against the protest of William Travers
Jerome, who declared that the only
purpose of the writ was to keep Thaw
out of the hands of tho Now York
stato authorities iu the event that Gov
ernor Felker orders the fug-Itlve sent
out of tho state.
Judge Aldrlch took tho case seriously.
Ho intimated that the question of
Thaw's sanity and the right and wrong
of his detention In Matteawau might
properly be raised In tho United States
district court
Jeromo Gets Postponement.
Jerome got into telephonic communi
cation with Governor Felker nnd per
suaded the governor to put off tho
hearing on tho Thaw extradition war
rant until next Tuesday. Tho hearing
was to have been held today. It bo
gan to look as though there was any
thing but harmony between tho stato
administration and the federal court
Whllo the court was giving tho de
cision on tho habeas corpus postpone
ment Thaw looked across tho counsel
tnblo and smiled broadly at Jeromo,
who clearly was nettled at tho turn
tho affair had taken and also by re
marks made by Judgo Aldrldi when
Jeromo raised his contention that tho
habeas corpus writ was not sued out
In good faith.
After Jeromo had offered tho affi
davit of a Now York newspaper man
to show that Moses Grossman of
Thaw's counsel had given tho Impres
sion that tho federal writ was desired
only as n measure of delay, Judgo
Aldrlch asked:
"Do you Intend to raise this question
formnlly? Unless you have a good
case the question of good faith would
better not be raised."
Will Pass on Sanity.
Jerome then said ho was willing to
accept tho statement of Georgo F. Mor
ris, one of tho Thaw lawyer, that tho
writ was sought In good faith. Mr.
Morris said that ho and bis colleagues
carried the Thaw caso to tho federal
court in order that every phase of the
long contest might be properly re
viewed, which, ho said, had been lm
possible in stato courts. Tho hearing
on tho writ, ho said, would give op
portunity to have a United States court
pass finally on tho question whether
Thaw was rightly or wrongly confined
In Matteawan.
Tho week's delay, said Morris, was
asked because the argument would con
sume more than n day and Governor
Felker had set today for tho extradi
tion hearing. Morris said also that the
Thaw lawyers had been unable to get
a copy of tho Now York requisition
rerved on tho governor.
