What has Congressman Jlines
ever <hue to deserve a renomina
tlon from the Democratic party ?
Tobacco smokers have been some
what alarmed by an alleged discovery
that use of the weed is a frequent
cause of color blindness. Railway en
gineers and other workmen whoso
duties call for the best of sight are
great smokers, and they are afraid that
the regulations may be amended so as
to cut oif the solace derived from their
pipes. A gruin of comfort is associated
with the discovery, however. Color
blindness from smoking is said to be
curable, while that duo to disease is
not- On the other hand, the tobacco
color blind are difficult subjects to test,
as only the eenter of the eye is affected.
With the outer part they can see well
enough. The best method of examina
tion is to place before the patient a box
of small pellets of varied colors. The
tobacco blind will select the blue with
the greatest ease, und contend that all
other colors are white. He can ob
serve colors ranged over an area well
enough, but when he comes to select a
pellet he has to use the center of his
eye, and then the colors seem to vanish
like magic.
AH AN illustration of the slowness of
promotion in the army, the Register
shows that Edward Davis, first lieu
tenant of the Third artillery, has a son
who is second lieutenant of the Eighth
cavalry, and, according to the present
rate of advancement, the latter will
hold the :ame rank as the father be
fore the lutter becomes a captain. Tho
son has been born since tho father be-'
came a lieutenant, and graduated at
West Point in 181)3, at the age of twen
ty-one. The father graduated in 18(>7.
Capt. Richard P. Strong, of the Fourth
artillery, has a son who is a first lieu
tenant in the same regiment. The
father entered the army in 18<U and tho
son in 1880. The son and the father
held the same rank in tho same regi
ment for two years, the former having
become a first lieutenant in 1887 and
the father being promoted to captain
in 1889.
A NEW YORK ph}*fdcian, as tho re
sult of long and careful investigation,
has discovered that tho telephone is a
most dangerous factor in tho trans
mission of disease. Where the tele
phone is much used he finds that dis
ease germs are present in great num
bers. There were in the telephone ex
amined large and well-developed cul
tures of both bacteria und enough
fragments of meat, plain starch, potato
starch and cheese for a bacterial feast.
The proprietor of the drug store where
the telephone was said that persons in
,the neighborhood were in the habit of
using the 'phone for the purpose oi
summoning physicians. The presence
of the bacteria in such large cjuanti
ties is therefore easily accounted for.
DEALERS in raw skins send hundreds
of thousands of musk rat hides yearly
to Europe. The skins are worth
in New York city now from
three to sixteen cents each, and
are purchased from country store
keepers in nearly all parts of the union.
The skins are cured and made into
muffs abroad. Some are then sent tc
the United States, but many are used
in Germany as a substitute for seal
skin and other costly furs. There is
a great demand for cheap furs in Eu
rope and for costly ones here.

COULD NOT PLAY BALL,
llnzleton's Y. SI. C. A. Club Made a
Poor Showing Against the Tigers.
The Y. M. C. A. club of Hazlcton put
up the worst game of the season at the
park on Saturday afternoon. The Tigers
had an elegant time pounding the ball
for two hours and twenty minutes, and
idled up runs until they were tired
bat ting. The 11uzleton club was unable
to lield or hit, but they managed to score
one run in each of the first three innings.
That was all they could get in, as the
home team settled down to work and
played a good game after the first few
innings. Costelio, of Lattimer, threw
nicely for the Tigers, and only six hits
were made oil him. The game through
out was dull and uninteresting, and the
only redeeming feature was the heavy
stick work of the Tigers* McGarvey's
batting was very good.
Following is the official score;

BASE BALL POINTS.
The largest crowd that ever attended
a game here is expected at the park
next Sunday to see the Tiger-Allentown
game. Every accomodation that is pos
sible to give the public will be there
that day, and as the contract with Kelly
calls for a first-class game, the manage
ment can guarantee that it will be one
of the finest exhibitions ever Been in
Freeland. Allentown's battery will be
Kilroy and Kelly. The Tigers battery
will be announced later. It is one of
tlie best in the state, and the ex-stars of
the National league will have to play
ball to win. No advance will lie made
in the prices of admission.
The attendance at the last game allow
ed that Saturday base ball would not
pay here. The crowd was the smallest
of the season.
The Tigers will take a strong club
down to Ashland on Wednesday and
intend to win the two games there, if
possible.
The Beading Browns came as far as
Pottsville yesterday morning, but as it
was still raining heavily when they ar
rived there, they concluded to return
home. It rained nearly all day, and no
game could lie played if they had come.
Another date will probably be arranged.
Coxe Will Not He a Candidate.
From Yesterday's Philadelphia Times.
Ex-Senator Eckley B. Coxe, the great
coal operator and all-round Democrat,
sends a special telegram to the Times in
which he says: "I have not been asked,
but under no circumstanses will I be a
candidate for congress in the Luzerne
district."
Leading Democrats of the twelfth
district, which comprises all of Luzerne
county, have been very urgent lately in
bringing Mr. Coxe forward as a candi
date for the nomination against Con
gressman II ines, advancing as the prin
ciple reason that it will be practically
impossible to re-elect Mr. Hines this
year, owing to his record at Washing
ton, and the announcement has been
made publicly that ex-Senator Coxe
had decided to allow his name to go be
fore the convention.
Mr. Coxe's positive refusal to have
any personal share in the campaign as
far as the candidate goes destroys a hope
the twelfth district Democrats have long
considered as the only avenue left them
this year to victory.
Now that the position of Mr. Coxe is
thoroughly known through his declara
tion, it is beyond question that Congress
man Ilines will be given the renomina
tion he seeks, and the campaign in Lu
zerne will be just as interesting and ex
citing as it was in 1892, when he intro
duced methods that were partially re
pudiated last year by the defeat of the
Democratic county ticket.
The nomination of John Leisenring,
the bright and hustling young Republi
can, who knocked the props out from
under the ex-Senator Morgan B. Wil
liams so neatly and deftly, also means a
fight equal to the brilliant contest
conducted by ex-Congressman George
W. Shonk against John 13, Reynolds in
1890, in which Shonk won by 1,484 ma
jority. "

SPECIAL CORRESPONDENCE.
Freeland, August 10,1804.
EDITOR TRIBUNE.—Monday morning,
the day of opening our borough schools,
will be an eventful day to teachers and
pupils. A thousand things will crowd
upon them at the same time and each
will demand prompt and judicious at
tention on their part. The children, to
the number of 300, all will turn their
inquiring eyes to the teacher for occupa
tion and direction. They will come full
of interest in the prospect of new things,
some ready to engage cheerfully in
whatever plans the teacher may have to
propose and I dare say a few others will
be prepared to turn up tlieir little noses
at the new feature established, namely,
the introduction of a sectarian bible into
the curriculum of our hitherto non
sectarian common schools.
What a ludicrous moment it will be
for ono of the teachers when she reads
from that book of sectarian faith? What
a sense of incongruity will dawn upon
the minds of the pupils w hen they will
have expounded to them dogmas of faith
which she does not understand and what
a folly it is for teachers to read to pupils
of things the expressed language of
which their little minds are utterly in
capable of comprehending.
When the directors made it manda
tory on the part of the teachers to read
a few lessons of the bible every morn
ing they wished no doubt to inculcate
into the minds of the pupils a few moral
lessons. That is commendable. In
every school there should be real train
ing and pruning of character, but in this
"City of Churches" where there are at
least twenty different expounders of
twenty different faiths, all learned men
who have spent years imbibing the dog
mas of their own religion, it becomes an
outrage on the community to suffer the
humiliation of a few directors to place
in our free common schools a certain
version of the bible and to be read and
explained, too, by incompetent preach
ers and theologians.
Many people believe and feel that
right moral guidance in the schoolroom
can only lie had by direct didactic teach
■nKt by the learning of formularies of
faith and duty, and by lessons conscious
ly directed to the enforcement of theo
logical truths. But some of the best
teachers in our vicinity, with no less pro
found sense of the importance of these
things, have grave doubts as to the use
fulness of lessons on the bible.
they distrust the practice of teaching
children in the sphere of religion to do
what they would not be asked to do in
any other department of their studies—
to believe what they do not understand.
1 hey dread, above all tilings, exacting
from a young child vows or professions
which cannot possibly correspond to his
actual convictions and experience. Such
teachers would be disposed to rely more
on the habits which were formed in
school, on the spirit in which its work
was done, on the sort of moral principles
which may be learned indirectly in a
higli-toned school, and are seen to pene
trate all its corporate life, than on formal
lessons from the bible.
The expediency of giving direct
religious instruction depends a good deal
on the character of a school, and the life
the scholar leads out of it. In a board
ing school, where all the pupils are of
the same religion a teacher is bound to
provide for the religious instructiou and
worship, both on Sunday and on other
days, which are used in a well-consti
tuted Christian family. A teacher in
such ease cannot leave out of view the
fact that many of the children come
from homes in which the name of God
is seldom heard, and in which the
parents feel it no part of their duty to
convey religious instruction to their
children or accompany them on Sunday
to the house of worship. The teacher
will feel here that the only glimpse the
scholar will have of the unßeen world,
the only teaching about his relation to a
Divine Father are to be had in the
school. On the other hand, the Free
land schools are common schools, the
scholars have parents wlio are accus
tomed to concern themselves about the
religious training of their children; or
who deliberately object to the inculcation
of certain dogmas. In this case there is
110 necessity for the bible. But, if these
directors demand its reading.it is evi
dent that they would like to make the
schools a propaganda for their own or
some other distinctive religious tenets.
These directors must not too hastily
conclude that a school is a godless
school, because for any reason no direct
didactic religious lessons are given in it.
Some of the weightiest lessons we can
learn in regard to the formation of our
own characters are not learned byway
of direct instructions, but they come to
us incidentally by seeing tho conduct of
others, and what that conduct is worth
when tested by the exigencies of life!
The conduct of some of the pupils at
school present many such exigencies—
many opportunities for effective moral
teaching. Cases of misconduct arise,
which if dealt with camly, seriously,
and by a reference to a true and high
standard of duty, have a great effect
upon the tone and feeling of the school.
The teachers will not be satisfied always
to employ mechanical remedies (such as
reading a chapter of the bible) for moral
evils.
Much more effective work is done
for the pupil in case of evils, by taking
care that his surroundings are right and
healthful; by watching carefully such
temptations to evil as come within his
reach, and by seeing that his daily life
gives due scope and opportunity for the
exercise of boyish virtues. And the
teacher, who lias a high sense of re
sponsibility in this matter, will often ask
himself, "Are the arrangements of my
school calculated to promote truthful
ness, manliness, a sense of honor, the
feeling of moral obligation? Are the re
lations of my pupil to me such as to en
courage him to treat me with confidence?
Is he being trained in my school not
merely to obey when the pressure of
authority is upon him, but also to use
freedom rightly when he himself is the
law-giver? Is the virtue of courage
taught not as an abstract lesson, but
silently in the discipline and habits of
the school?" All untruth comes from
cowardice. All idleness, desultory read
ing—nearly all, in fact, of the faults
which a teacher most desires that school
boys and girls should avoid—come from
lack of boldness to say "No" when the
temptation comes, and to make a reso
lute elTort to do what is known to be
right.
Trace out the consequences of a nerve
less, soft and too indulgent discipline,
when it comes to bear fruit in after life.
Consider what a man is likely to be
worth who lias not resolution enough to
resist public opinion, to refuse to
pronounce the follies of his party, to
abstain from display and expense which
he cannot afford, to emancipate himself
from bigotry which ho feels to be
narrow and selfish. And when we
think of these things we will see that in
the microcosm of a good school there
should be real training in courage and
self restraint, and that such training is
often as effective when it is connected
with the actual difficulties and tempta
tions of school life, as when it forms
part of a formal scheme of bible reading.
Further, it must be borne in mind that
every one of the departments of teaching
with which we deal in schools carries
with it its own special ethical lessons.
Those intricate though graceful drills
that delighted the audience at the opera
house a few months ago carry their own
load of merit. We saw in considering
the practice which they involved, how
tlie scholar learned obedience, exact at
tention to rule, seif-subjugation, defer
ence for others, and the habit of losing
sight of his individual claims, while
working towards the attainment of re
sults in which others besides himself
tiad a common interest. The study of
language, too, when rightly conducted,
is essentially a discipline in veracity,
in careful statement, in abstinence from
exaggeration, in thinking before we
speak. Mathematical science teaches
lessons in exactness, in perfect honesty,
and in patience.
History is a large field that is covered
with golden examples by which moral
character may be developed. One looks
back over the annals of our race and re
calls the past. The echoes of far-oIT
contests and of ancient heroisms come
down to us through the ages. We haye
heard with our ears, and read from
hooks, how the Saviour nailed to the
cross, his life-blood pouring out like
water and the rabble and scofling about
him, turned his blood-stained face to
heaven and asked his heavenly Father
to forgive them for they knew not what
they did? We hear of the revolution
ary general, thirsty and dying on the
field of buttle, refusing the cup of water
and giving it to a poor soldier with the
words "Thy necessity is greater than
mine." Or we think of Wolfe, the
young soldier, on the heights of Quebec,
spent and wounded after hard fight,
aroused by the cry, "They run." "Who
run'" "The French." "Then I die
happy." And as the children realize
these scenes, they know that this world
is a better world for us to live in because
such deeds have been done in it. They
see all the moie clearly what moral
duty and true human greatness are, and
are helped by such examples to form a
nobler ideal of the possibilities of their
own little lives.
Anil thus it is quite possible that in a
school in which few moral lessons are
given on morals and conduct, the sense
of a higher presence and the habitual
recognition of the highest motives of
action may suffuse the whole of the
teaching, or run through its entire tex
ture like a golden thread without the
use of the bible.
The introduction of this bible into our
common schools is a grevous fault. It
has disturbed the hitherto quiet equili
brium of the religious feeling of our
schools; it has added insult to all the
other outrageous actions of our directors.
It is a fair ea nple of the calibre of these
men Oh, ii ever angels visit this
earth and hov r unseen around the
gathering of mortals, to survey their
actions and contemplate their destiny as
affected by human instrumentality, it
seems to me there can be no spectacle
calculated to awaken their interest and
kindle their sympathy as when they see
those august directors in meeting assem
bled. What a shudder and what a dread
and horror must pervade their spiritual
being as tbey witness the dismantling of
Peter to robe Paul—the continual war of
folly against wisdom, indifference vs.
seriousness, duplicity vs. sincerity and
defilement vs. purity. J. D. 11.

It is strange the effect a rail
way accident will have upon
some persons for a time after
it occurs. Since the recent col
lision on the trolley line last
week I have heard a dozen
people remark that they would
"never ride on those cars."
Elderly people, in particular,
remember these things more
so than the younger element,
and there is no doubt hut that
it will cause a postponement
of the "first ride" with many
on the electric cars. When it
is remembered that not one in
ten thousand is injured by
railway riding, it will be seen
that the danger is reduced to a
minimum and accidents have
no effect upon those whose
business requires them to go
from one town to another, but
everybody does not look at it
in that light and some are posi
tive that it is their turn next to
be caught in a wreck. The
railroad companies all recog
nize the fact that this sort of
superstition exists and they
are not in favor of giving sen
sational details of accidents on
their lines.
The borough pound, for a
few weeks past, lias resembled
a stock yard. Big cows, little
cows, and cows of all styles
and colors have been gathered
in after dark by the high con
stable, and the owners of bo
vines have risen in protest
against what they consider un
necessary interference with
their cattle. They claim that
the high constable has exceed
ed his authority in several in
stances, but that official states
positively that he has im
pounded the cows only when
the borough ordinances have
been violated. The cost of re
leasing the animals varies from
$1.60 to $5, and as catching half
a dozen is a small evening's
work, the tempest that is being
aroused can ho imagined. It
is the principle topic of conver
sation in some quarters. The
high constable, however, is
ahead so far in the cow-war.
There is some talk around
the lower end of town about
organizing a new fire company.
It appears that the people of
the Points think the present
location of the fire apparatus
is too far away from their prop
erties, and that a blaze has
too much chance to spread be
fore the hose could arrive.
There is no part of the town
built up more closely than Cen
tre street from South down,
and a fire, assisted by a good
stiff breeze, could make great
headway in five minutes. The
people who are interested in
the question think that part of
the hose should bo kept down
there, and it is likely that the
matter will be brought before
the town council soon. A
change is needed anyhow in the
location of the present fire
house, as it is all uphill pull
ing wherever a fire occurs.
It begins to look as if the
annexation question is to bo
opened up again. I hear that
some of the pushing citizens of
South Heberton are out, or will
be in a few days, with a peti
tion to have that place and Al
vintown annexed to Freeland,
There is a population of about
1,200 east and north of the bor
ough that should be within the
limits, and if the gentlemen
who have taken the matter in
charge will persevere their ef
forts will surely be crowned
with success. The people of
South Heberton have often
thought of applying for an ex
tension of the borough Units
in that direction, but they
seemed always to be waiting
for some one to start the move
ment. Now that it is about to
be commenced it ought not be
allowed to linger as long in
coming to a conclusion as was
the application of the recent
addition.
Old Mother Foster has
trouble enough on her hands
already, and there is not much
objection expected if Freeland
does adopt a few more of her
grown-up children. The old
My is not in a position, finan
cially speaking, to give them
the comforts of life which they
now require, and South Heber
ton ana Alvintown cannot be
blamed if they try to improve
themselves by working their
way into more progressive so
ciety. The borough is where
