Of Importance to Pupils. At the mooting of the school board Monday evening Prof. Lenkord was granted permission to demote all scholars who got behind in tbelr studios by absenting themselves from school. The directors claim that there are too many pupils who are granted permission by thoir parents to stay away from school just whenever thoy are inclined to do so, therefore, the scholars who absent themselves from school and get behind in their studies can expect to be put back Into lower rooms. The board also passed a resolution to the effect that all pupils coming out of families whore they bad typhoid fever would have to get a oertlflcato from a physician before they will bo admitted to the school.

Shot An Old Citizen. Detective Frank P. Adelsperger, whose business It Is to hunt people who disobey the civil laws of our land, and he generally gets the "game" that he goes for, occasionally likes to hie away to the woodland and hunt smaller game. Last Friday forenoon Mr. Adelsperger was In the woods noar Kline's when a pheasant flew up and Adelsperger shot at It. He was horrified to hear some one cry out from behind a clump of bushes just In front of him, and he was not comforted much to find Daniel Sharp, of sassafras fame, with blood flowing from numerous places on his head, face and neck. Mr. Sharp was gathering wild grapes at the time and Mr. Adelsperger did not see him until after a portion of tho shot that missed tho phcasnnt had been burled In tho old man's flesh. Mr. Adelsorgcr took Mr. Sharp home and called two doctors. They found Daniel feeling as comfort nblo ns could bo exported under tho cir cumstances, and not dangerously Injur ed. Mr. Adelsperger felt very badly about the aecldent, but he whs not to blame for It. Daniel Sharp Is one of tho oldest citizens of this section, be lived here when the slto whereon Reynolds vllle is built was a howling wild erness, the wild beasts were numerous and the Red man and his tenia-, hawk were not strangers. Mr. Sharp has outlived the three score and ten limit. Ho Is eighty-four years old. If Mr. Adelsperger had blown out his flickering lamp of life, ho would havo romoved Reynoldsvlllo's sure hnrblnger of spring, for It has been Mr. Sharp's custom for many yeai-s to dig up sassafras root In the very early spring time and peddle It out to the citizens of Reynoldsvillo, and when he appears with sassafras over his shoulder it is a suro sign that spring time has como.

There being no further business, on motion tho meeting adjourned. No Sanitary Organization. It is a well known fact that a few yoars ago a board of health was organ ized in Reynoldsvllle and after a short life it became Inactive and tho town 1b at presont without a proper sanitary organization. This should not bo so. Benjamin Loo, Secretary of the State Board of Health, says: "Sanitary re form Is making suoh rapid advance that the efficiency of a local board of health is beginning to be regarded as an indox of the intelligence of the community." If this be true it Is high time that Reynoldsvllle proves by an efficient board of health that this Is an intelli gent community. The terms of some of tho merabors of the board have expired, but, if we are correctly informed, it Is the duty of the President tf the Town Council to appoint persons to fill the vacancies of those whose terms have expired, and that it will be legal to re appoint such members if it appears desirable. Killed on a Bridge. Last Wednesday afternoon Mrs. Rosa Ann London, sister of John Hopkins of this place, was killed by a B., R. & P. passenger train on a bridge near Big Run. Mrs. London, who was sixty -five years old, and two other old people were walking across the railroad bridge and did not hear the train until It appeared around a short curve near the bridge. The train was running fast and was so close to the bridge when the engineer discovered the people that he could not stop his train. Mr. and Mrs. Irvln Smouser, who were with Mrs. London, just got off the bridge In time to escape the Iron horse. Mrs. London was killed Instantly. Mr. Hopkins attended the funeral of bis sister Friday. Her re mains were buried In a cemetery near her home, which was near where she met such a violent death. "A word to the wise is sufficient."

The bride was one of West Reynolds vlllo's fairest and finest young ladles, she Is a good christian lady and was a faithful worker In all tho departments of the M. E. church, of which she was a member, and will be greatly missed In the1 church. Louisa has a host of friends In Reynoldsvillo who wish her the fullest enjoyment In the new llfo she has entered. Prof. Hawthorne, who was principal of the West Reyn oldsvllle schools last winter, Is a very nice young man, full of the spirit of progressiveness, who will no doubt make the best of this life.

Brown, of Summer vllle, Rev. and Mrs. J. K. Adams, of Big Rim, O. C. Jones, of Ohl, Rev. nnd Mrs. J. II. Jolbart, of Stanton, Pa. Protection of the Public Health. State Supt. SehnofTor says: "I am of tho opinion that the Act of Assembly, approved Juno IS, 1 805, entitled 'An Act to provide for the more cITootunl protection of tho public heulth, in tho several municipalities of this Common wealthis Intended to bo a general law. There mny bo somo question as to a direct application of the compulsory feature of the act to townships, Inas mtwh as there is no provision mado, under existing laws, for theorganizution of local Boai'ds of Health outside of tho cities and boroughs of tho Common wealth; but at tho same time It Is advixablo for all school boards to take Buch measures as, In their judgment, may bo necessury to prevent the spread of contagious and Infections diseases in tho district over which the directors have jurisdiction. I think Hint tho directors ought to have a reasonablo discretion In tho mutter and should havo the right to exercise their own good judgment as to tho necessity of the case. If contagious diseases are prevalent in the neighborhood or if thoro is (lunger of tho spread of a con tagion from contact with other locali ties, tho directors ought to tuko every precaution to protect the schools evon If tho law ild not require them to doso. Thoy may dose the schools temporarily, If necessary, until the dungor is over. It is advisable for school board, without rollnqulshieg any of tho powers confur red upon them by law, to to-operate with the lotal boards of health (where there are such boards,) if an emergency should arise requiring prompt and de cisive action on the part of tho local authorities. It requires unceasing vigilance and systematic efforts of the part of everybody concerned, to main tain proper sanitary regulations In con nection with tho schools and homes, and school directors cannot be too careful In guarding against the intro duction and1 spread of disease, which endangers the health and lives of the children." Infective Sidewalk. The case of Harry Evans vs. Tho Borough of Brookvllle, concluded In the common Pleas Court thta woek, Im poses the burden of $1,000 on tho tax payers of our town, the third case of tho kind within recent years, because of defective sidewalks. We bolieve It Bafo to say that thore are to-day scores of places on sidewalks of our streots in a worse condition than where the plain tiff in this case was Injured, and where accidents are possible any day, and the question that arises is, are our town fathers going to permit this condition to exist, running the risk of being com pelled from time to time to pay large awards of damages? A thousand dol lars would repair tho sidewalks of town and koep them In oondltlon for one year at least. Brookvllle Uepuhlicun. Thero are sidewalks in Reynoldsvllle that need repairing before some one gets Injured. Deemer's jacket and wrap opening Saturday, Oct. 10th.
