FREELAND TRIBUNE.
VOL. VIII. NO. 14
SCHOOL BOARD MEETING.
FURNITURE QUESTION DECIDED ON
TUESDAY EVENING.
J. D. Myers Awarded the Contract to
FurnlHli the New Hullding—A High
School, with a Four-Year Course ol
Study, to Re Established*
Messrs. McCarthy, Ferry, Welsh, Rutc
ami Timony comprised the borough
school board attending the meeting held
on Tuesday evening. The board de
cided to pay Contractor Cunnius 9500, as
first payment on the new school build
ing. President McCarthy read a letter
from County Superintendent Harrison,
relative to establishing a high school
in Freeland. The superintendent dwelt
at length on the various grades of
schools that may be instituted, and in
dicated his approval of the desire to es
tablish a school of this nature with a
moderate course. Mr. Harrison also
called attention to tin; late act of assem
bly, which prescribes the course of high
schools and limits the extent of the
same, and for which an additional ap
propriation, graded according to the
course and term adopted, can be obtain
ed from the state. By reference to the
act of assembly it was learned that a
four-year course would be the most de
sirable to adopt at present. Secretary
Ferry offered a motion, which was sec
onded by Mr. Timony, to institute a
high school of a four-year course. The
motion carried unanimously.
The appropriation for the high school
may possibly amount to SBOO, and every
board receiving this additional aid from
the state shall, according to law. employ
at least one teacher legally certified to
teach bookkeeping, civics, general his
tory, algebra, geomentry, trigonometry
including plane surveying, rhetoric,
English literature, Latin including
Ciesar, Virgil and Cicero, and the
elements of physics, chemistry including
tin? chemistry of soils, botany, geology,
and zoology including entomology.
The following bills were presented for
publishing two proposal notices, one to
contractors and builders, the other to
painters and furnishers: THIBUNK, $1.20;
Progress , $2.50; Press, $3.00. The board
decided unanimously to accept and pay
the TRIBUNE'S bill and return the others
for correction, owing to the rates being
considered too high.
The board decided to furnish the new
schools with single desks and seats.
Director Welsh moved, and Mr. Rute
seconded to give the order for furniture
to the lowest bidder, M. F. Naughton, at
SI.BO for all sizes. The merits of this
furniture, in comparison with the speci
mens of other desks placed before the
board, came in for some discussion, and
it was declared to be unlit for a school
room. The motion was lost and the
board decided to buy a desk of good
quality. Secretary Ferry moved and
Mr. Welsh seconded, to adopt the Victor
folding-top desk, manufactured by Thos.
IV Kane A Co., of Chicago. The motion
carried, all voting for it except Mr.
Rute. The order was awarded to J. 1).
Myers, agent for Kane A Co., at $2.1)0 for
the larger sizes, and $2.05 for the smaller
sizes.
The board also decided to place the
order for recitation seats, teachers'
desks and chairs with Mr. Myers.
President McCarthy suggested that
some action be taken on the question of
the proposed examination of teachers,
and stated the advisability of selecting a
new examining board. The suggestion
did not meet with the approval of the
board, and Director Rute offered a
motion, which was seconded by Mr.
Welsh, to rescind the previous motion to
hold a competitive examination, and ap
point teachers in the regular way.
The motion carried, all voting for it, ex
cept President McCarthy.
Mrs. J. M. Iladesty asked to be exon
erated from the payment of school tax.
The matter was laid over.
The board decided to adopt steam heat
for the new school building, and in
structed the secretary to advertise for
bids for placing the same.
The board adjourned, to hold a special
meeting on Saturday evening at 7 o'clock
to appoint teachers.
Failed to Select a Chairman.
From the Wllkesbarre Newsdealer.
The Republican leaders and candi
dates are having a little difficulty in se
lecting a chairman for tin', county com-1
mittcc. The candidates met in Attorney
Dennett's office on Tuesday for the pur
pose of selecting a county chairman but
made little or no progress. The meeting
lasted from 2 p. m. until evening, but no
choice was made. Rob Robinson's name
was mentioned but did not meet with
approval as he does not desire the posi
tion. The names of Rob Williams,
Charles Keck, W. .1. Scott and Rill Reed
were taken up and discussed. It is quite
likely that the chairman will be Reed or
Scott, as they were the favorites. The
candidates will meet on Friday and try
again to chosen a chairman.
Ladies, tiie best-fitting and most
stylish shoe in the market is the Vision,
sold at $2. Can be had only at the Wear
Well, Eborts' old stand.

prices. Ready-made goods equal to cus
tom work at Rofowich's, Freoland.
New Official* Sworn In.
Judge Lyman 11. Bennett took the
oath of office from Judge Woodward, in
court, on Monday afternoon. The oath
was sent to the recorder's office to be re
corded. Judge Bennett's first judicial
act was the appointment of Ira B. Wol
(inger and John Laning as special
policemen at the Patterson Grove camp
meeting. The motion of the appoint
ment was made by Attorney C. E. Keck,
upon a petition of the Patterson Grove
Camp Meeting Association. Controller
Joseph 1). Lloyd also took the oath of
office the same afternoon, being sworn
in by Prothonotary Llewellyn. Mr.
Lloyd asked the county commissioners
for an office in the courthouse, but they
refused, claiming they have no spare
room. Mr. Lloyd will rent an office
and charge the expense to the county.
.Washington Hotel Unopened.
A1 Goeppert, proprietor of the Wash
ington hotel, 011 West Walnut street, re
opened his business place last night, all
tiie alterations and improvements hav
ing been completed. The Concordia
Singing Society, of Hazleton, to the
number of about fifty people, paid him
a visit, and for several hours they
treated the upper part of town to some
excellent singing. Mr. Goeppert was
also called upon by several of his Free
land friends, and the reopening of the
hotel was made the occasion of one of
the most pleasant evenings that the
genial proprietor has enjoyed since he
entered business. The enlarged build
ing is admirably adapted to meet the re
quirements of Mr. Goeppert's trade.
Washburn's Circus Coming.
The well-known circus of Leon W.
Washburn, which has pleased Freeland
audiences in the past, will exhibit here
on Monday, August 26. Advertising
car, No. 1, was hem yesterday, and the
circus posters can be seen on every side
since the men completed their work.
Captain Bailey, the ladder jumper, whose
feat was described after the perform
ance here last year, is still with the cir
cus and will perform in the open air af
ter the parade on the 26th inst. The
press of the state is unanimous in pruis
sing Mr. Washburn for the excellent
show lie is giving this year.
Lnnxford'H Mine Fire.
The Lehigh Coal and Navigation Com
pany's mine fire at their colliery No. 10,
Lansford, looks more favorable now
than at any time since it started, several
weeks ago. The breast in which the
lire was first discovered will be entirely
filled with wet coal dirt and water. The
temperature of the adjoining gangways
lias taken a very considerable drop, and
the atmosphere is now comparatively
cold. The company officials have, hope
that the marked abatement of heat
argues well for an early extinguishment
of the fire without making it necessary
to flood the entire mine.
A Special to Harrlshurg.
On the 28f.il Inst, a special train will
bo run from Drifton to the Republican
state convention at Ilarrisburg by Daniel
Coxe. D. S. S. engine, No. 17, will
haul the train, and is now being fitted
up for what promises to he a rapid run.
The engine lias been rechristoned, and
will hereafter lie known as "Daniel 11.
Hastings." The new name has been
painted on botli sides of the cab at Drif
ton shops. The prominent Hastings
admirers are looking forward to the trip
with pleasure.
Took the Black Veil.
At Hazleton yesterday morning the
black veil of the Sisters of Mercy was
taken by Miss Mary Boyle, a daughter
of Hugh Boyle, of Ridge and Walnut
streets, and also by Miss Alice Houston,
of Drifton. This is the final ceremony
in entering the order, and the impres
sive services were witnessed by tin;
relatives and friends of the young ladies.
Miss Boyle is known in the religious
world as Sister Mary Aloysfus and Miss
Houston as Sister Mary Cecilia.
I'layed Hliownman and Died.
The clothing of William Reynolds, of
Shamokin, aged 9 years, caught lire
while he was playing with coal oil in a
lamp, and the little fellow was burned
to death. The boy was trying to blow
flames from his mouth by exhaling the
gas of the oil, which lie had in his
mouth, as he had seen a showman do,
when the accident occurred.
Accused the Wrong Man.
Rocco DeDio requests the TKIIIUVK to
state that he is not the party who struck
the. Hungarian at tiie South Hebertou
stripping last week. Rocco says an ar
ticle in a Hazleton paper caused people
to believe him the guilty man. This he
denies as he has not worked at the strip
ping or been near it since July 29.
George Wise, at his stores in Jcddoand
Freeland, has a few more sets of fly nets
and large; umbrellas, which he is selling
very cheap.

asking for locations and inducements.
The matters were referred to the com
mittee on metal. Treasurer Butz stated
that he had some communication witli
a representative of the West End Silk Mill
Company, of Allentown, who were anx
ious to establish a branch of their busi
ness here. The committee on textile
fabrics will look up this matter.

ing. The board adjourned to meet on

ON THE DIAMOND.
Manager McGarvey, of the Tigers,
went to Hazleton yesterday to induce
Manager Sharsig to bring his State
league team over here next Sunday.
Everything possible was done to coax a
game out of him, but Sharsig remained
obdurate and refused to play the Free
land boys upon conditions of any kind.
Hazleton should lie proud to have such
a man in charge of its team.
At Baltimore, on Tuesday, Shortstop
Jennings accepted twenty-one chances
in two games without an error. The
dispatches containing accounts of the
games credit him with giving the most
remarkable exhibitions of ball playing
ever seen in that city.
Dan Shannon, manager of the Wilkes
barre club, has received an offer to play
and manage the Washington team next
season. It Is quite likely that Shannon
will accept the offer. He is recognized
as one of the greatost base ball managers
in the country.
Luck has been against Hazleton for
some time past in encounters where
Freeland people were against that city.
Perhaps that is why Sharsig refuses to
risk his club's reputation in a game with
our working boys.

Sold Reer on Sunday.
John Medash, a South- Side bottler,
was given a hearing before Squire Dailey.
of Pleasant Hill, on oath of Michael Col
ombo, charging him witli a violation of
of the license law by selling on Sunday.
On Sunday morning, the 4th instant.
Colombo says, he went to the bottling
house and bought twelve bottles of beer,
for which he paid. Seeing Deputy Con
stable James Leo at a little distance
from the place he hailed him and a com
panion and invited them over on the os
tensible plea of treating them, but in
fact wanted them to play in the role of
witnessess. Each of the men, on arriv
ing there, saw the beer and were given
a bottle, of which they drank. Colombo
then appeared before Squire Dailey and
swore out the warrant. At the conclu
don of the hearing the defendant was
placed under 9500 bail for appearance at
Schuylkill county court.
Spoi d of h Trolley Car.
An exchange says it is a much easiei
matter to time a trolley car than is gen
erally supposed. The simplest way to
decide tliis question is to note the num
ber of feet a car moves a minute, and di
vide this number by eighty-eight, which
will give the number of miles a car
moves an hour. If a car moves at the
rate of one mile an hour it will pass over
eighty-oight feet a minute. A speed of
176 feet a minute is at the rate of two
miles an hour; 352 feet, four milos; 528
feet, six miles; 704 feet, eight miles; 880
feet, ten miles; 1,320 feet, lifteen miles;
1,840 feet, twenty miles; 2,200 feet, twen
ty-five miles; 2,640 feet, thirty miles;
3,520 feet, forty miles; 4,400 feet, fifty
miles; 5,280 feet a minute, sixty miles an
hour.
It WfiH Not llitnKMrlanH.
Joseph S. Uhlar, a prominent Hun
garian of Upper Lehigh, writes that the
article from Upper Lehigh in Monday's
paper, concerning the cow which was
killed on the railroad, was not correct
in so far as it stated that the dead ani
mal was purchased by Hungarians.
Mr. Uhlar says it was Slovak people
who bought and ate the cow. lie also
informs us there are but six Hungarian
families in Upper Lehigh, all of whom
keep their fresh meat in refrigerators.
The TRIBUNE is satisfied that Mr. Uh
lar's statement is the correct one, ami
our informants hereafter will be in
structed to not class Hungarians with
the Slovaks.
Jerney Central KxteiiHion.
The Jersey Central Railroad Company
lias awarded the contract to extend its
tracks from Audenried to Pleasant Hill.
It will require two months to complete
the job with 100 men. The purpose of
building this road is to compete for
freight with the Lehigh Valley, which
amounts to considerable. The latter
company Is now changing the depot
from Silver Brook Junction to Pleasant
Hill and is also building a freight sid
ing. Heretofore Audenried was the
freight center for both roads.
Corbett to Play Alley Rail.
From the Seranton Truth.
Champion James J. Corbett and his
brother, Joseph Corbett, signed articles
of agreement 011 Monday evening to
play an alley ball match against John
Rickeby and Thomas Dave., of this city,
for #SOO a side. The match will take
place in this city some time within the
next month, and will undoubtedly at
tract a great deal of attention. T. C.
Molvin was appointed stakeholder and
s">o was deposited by each side.
