SHOT DEAD IN A DRAWL.
DURYEA TO THE FRONT WITH AN
OTHER FATAL SHOOTING.
During a Drunken Scrimmage Charles
Milinky With Murdered l>y a Feliow
l'olc—Shoots Two of His l'tirsuerw ami
Then Surrendered to Escape the Mob.
A murder, an attempted lynching and
the serious wounding of two mein
hers of the mob by the alleged
murderer threw Duryna, that notorious
town in the upper end of this county,
into a fever of excitement on Monday
night. The. accused man gave himself
up upon promise of protection from the
mob, and is now in jail. The killing
was tho result of a drunken brawl.
Andrew Jovarosky and Charles Mllisky.
Polanders, in company with several
companions, had been drinking in one
of the many speak-easies that abound in
the village, when suddenly Milisky struck
Jovarosky. • Tho latter, It is charged.
<1 nickly pulled a pistol and before those
near by could interfere fired several
shots in quick succession. Two of the
bullets penetrated the body of Milisky.
aVid lie sank to the floor with a piercing
shriek. In a few minutes he expired.
The spectators were dazed by the sud
denness of tho occurrence, and
THE AI.I.I:C;;;D MI HDF.KEH
attempted to make his escape by a rear
door, lint on reaching the outside he
was confronted by a mob of the citizens,
who had been attracted by the shooting.
Jovarosky tried to run the gauntlet it:
the hope of escape, but the crowd pounc
ed upon him and commenced to beat
and pound him with clubs, stones and
missies of every description.
Battered and bleeding, he managed to
break loose from the infuriated crowd,
which by this time had assumed the
proportions of a mob, and lied to his
home, close by, fid lowed by half the
population.
As soon as he reached tin* inside.
Jovarosky bolted the door. Seizing a
double-barreled shotgun, he opened tin
door, and, without a word of warning,
SHOT INTO TDK CROWD.
Anthony Narcovich and Mike Salinsk}
received the contents of both charges in
the breast and head, and fell to tin
ground, badly wounded. The crowd fell
back and carried tho injured men a
short distance away. They were subse
quently removed to the hospital.
The anger of the mob know no bounds
at seeing two of their number laid out
for dead, and cries of lynching were
heard on all sides. Word was dispatch
ed to Pittston for assistance, and it was
only the prompt arrival of several of
ficers that prevented the hanging of
Jovarosky to the first telegraph pole.
After /Living the crowd back, the
officers made themselves known to Jova
rosky and demanded that he surrender.
I'pon being assured of protection* from
the mob, which he feared would lynch
him, he gave himself up, and was taken
to tho county jail at Wilkosbarro.
Freelund School Hoard Commended.
From the lla/Jcton Plain Speaker.
The Kreeland school board has set a
precedent in the election of school
teachers that can lie profitably followed
by others in the region. If the interests
of the schools are to lib advanced, it is
good for tho peoplo that their represen
tatives on the school hoard have had the
acumen to placo the teachers, or a
majority of them, in their positions for
more than the accustomed one year.
Politics and tho schools will become
more separated if teachers are elected
as they have been in Kreeland. Teach
ers will be certain of their places and
can consequently do more effective work.
To insure the success of the common
school syxtorn frequent changes are not
desirable. Some teachers may not be
fitted to hold their positions for more
than a year and all such, it is not ques
tioned, should be gotten rid of by tho
hoard who are aware of their weakness.
Where good talent has been secured,
however, a teacher should not bo remov
ed because he or she has not the good
will of the director who may have other
friends to reward, Friendship should
be the last consideration and ability the
first, Unfortunately It is friendship first
and l ability afterward that counts in
many of tho townships, boroughs and
cities in the state, Wlmmj a teacher has
demonstrated his or her capability to
teach successfully and when the habits
of the teacher are above reproach, elec-!
tion for more than a single term will
bring better results than "a continual
bouncing" to make room for political
allies.
From the Wilkosbarro Newsdealer.
The school board of Kreeland borough
set a precedent at their last meeting,
so fair, that it should be adopt
ed by every school board in the state.
Holders of state r.onpal certificates who
were appointed were chosen for three
years, holders of professional certifi
cates two years, and holders of provi
sional certificates for one year. This
plan is if goyd one, and will meet with
favor. The capable, efficient teacher,
armed with the proper certificate, should
IHi elected for a number of years, and
not annually be annoyed and harassed
in at tempting to retain his place. It
KREELAND, PA., THURSDAY, JULY 20, 1897.
will give him a more independent feel
ing, and he will lie capable of doing
bettor service when he is not hanging
in the ragged edge of uncertainty. We
commend the action of the Kreeland
school board, based as it is, on equity
ind justice, and the system will certain
ly be followed elsewhere in the close
future.
New Advertising Hides.
The board of managers of the Joint,
Traffic Association, which represents
practically all the great railroads of the
Bast, has just adopted a series of reso
lutions which will prove decidedly inter
esting to many persons who havo profited
by the advertismeiits of tho roads. Here
after these will lie published only in the
newspapers and standard periodicals, us
will appear from tho following resolu
tions:
"Whereas, Organized societies, associ
ations, commercial companies, trade or
ganizations, theatrical, amusement and
baseball companies and other similar
bodies, as well as mercantile lirms.
publish or control special issues of peri
odicals, circulars, prospectuses, cata
logues, advertisements, programs of
entertainments, etc., of display adver
tising mediums: and
"Whereas, The use of such channels
of railroad advertising, whether in the
freight or passenger departments, and
whether paid for in cash or in transpor
tation, or in part by each, lias been, and
may be, equivalent to unauthorized re
ductions of published rates or fares, and
the undue and preferential control of
business; therefore, bo it
"Resolved, That no company, party to
the Joint Traffic Association, shall from
and after August 1. 1897, publish or par
ticipate in any advertisements in any
publications of said character.
"Resolved, That after said date ad
vertising shall be eon lined to regularly
published standard newspapers and pe
riodicals of general circulation published
at regular intervals.
••Resolved, That purchases by rail
road companies of the tickets of said
societies, clubs, local, state or national
associations, organizations, etc., or do
nations or contributions to such organi
zations through committees or individu
als, in any form, or to any extent, are
irregular, and should be at once discon
tinued. "
Railroad companies are generally
given credit for knowing what is best
for their trade, and the resolutions
abovo tell plainly what mediums they
deem most profitable to advertise, their
business in. Merchants 1 associations in
several cities and towns have already
come to tiie same conclusion and have
decided to stop wasting money in buying
space in worthless catch-penny schemes.
The established newspaper is tho proper
place for advertisements, and the. only
place where it pays to buy space.
Ladles' Home Journal for August.
The, Ladies' Home Journal for August,
largely devoted to fiction, presents a
number of short stories by tho best
known writers, that will pleasantly em
ploy the leisure oT midsummer days. Of
special interest among these are, the
opening chapters of ilamlin Garland's
latest serial,"The Spirit of Sweet Water,' 1
a romance with the rugged wilds of the
Western mining country as its pictur
esque background, and "The Two Mrs.
ChestcTs." by Mrs. A. I). T. Whitney.
Arthur Willis Col ton contributes a pa
thetic sketch, "The Flowers on Tim
Kae's Crave," and Annie Steger Winston
narrates a rustic courtship in "The .lilt
ing of Mary Ellon." Ellinor Hale
Runcie, in "Sergeant Matty" gives one a
view of the heroism of a Salvation Army
girl, and Hraco Stuart Raid tells the
story of "Her Mysterious Disappear
ance." Another story of powerful in
terest is Jaracli Parr's "Before tho
Morning Watch," a Quaker romance
laid in the stirring Revolutionary times.
Along other lines, nearer the practical
side of life, Edward W. Bok ad drosses
parents on allowing young girls too
much liberty and freedom, and has
hearty commendation for the work per
formed by our smaller colleges. "Droch"
chats on "Vacation Meandejings," and
Dwight I<. Moody teaches the lesson of
the Resurrection. Mrs. S. T. Roror tells
all about "Canning and Preserving, 11 tho
preparation of food that requires but
little (ire, luncheon for picnics, etc.
Pictorially it is artistic and attractive.

finished in two weeks.
A motion to rescind a former motion,
authorizing that the sidewalk in front
of the E. B.Coxo Memorial school be paved
with concrete, was carried. The board
then decided to pave with brick at 8
cents per square foot, guttor to be two

Monday, August 10, was set aside for
agents and all others who desire to bring
samples of school supplies, etc., before
the board.
Mr. Nouburgor having failed to re
move the old school buildings, his bid
was declared null and void by the board
and it was decided to offer them for sale

l'liill DiiM'ti Withdraws.
The Tlumr.NK was tin; first newspaper
t.o authoritatively announce the candi
dacy of Paul Dasch, of Upper Lehigh,
for the Democratic nomination of pro
thonotary, and wo sincerely regret, for
the good of the party in Luzerne county,
to state today that he lias withdrawn
from th field. INIr. Dasch informs us
I that he has an oiler of a position in
another part of the state, which ho has
boon holding under advisement, and lias
finally decided to accept. Since the
first announcement of his candidacy he
has boon steadily gaining in strength
and popularity, and nothing, apparent
ly, could have prevented him from being
the clioico of the convention, which
choico would certainly have been rati
fied by tlie voters on election day.
Democrats everywhere will regret that
Mr. Dasch decided as he lias, as his
name on the ticket would have materi
ally strengthened it and made victory
sure this fall.
