FREELAND, I'A., AUGUST 2, 1897. That School House Decision. From t he Wilkesbarre Leader. The decision of Judge Fell, of Phila lolphia, that school property cannot be used for other than school purposes, which accords with popular sentiment in some of its developments, may have a wider and more far-reaching olTect than is anticipated. The case which called forth the decision was the use of a school house for a religious mooting, •vjiicli has become quite a common prac tice in communities where the ward or listrict school house is the most avail able for sucli purposes. In most cases there has boon no objec tion, and on the principle of good neigh borhood even those of opposing faiths have assented. Rut the law declares such uses of school property illegal, and will have to cease. We have no ques tion the decision is in accord with the spirit of a purely non-sectarian use of school property. Rut the question is raised, if the use of school property must be confined to strictly school uses, the school houses can no longer bo used for lectures, exhi bitions, or even for holding the polls. Says the Philadelphia Ledger in no ticing this decision: "The effect of the decision will be severely felt in those rural communities where the school house is, next to the church, the most important building in the place, and the only one in which secular entertain ments of various kinds can be held. If the decision is strictly enforced through out the state it will not be surprising to see. a bill introduced in the next legisla ture providing for a more elastic con struction of the school laws, so as to permit the use of school houses for pub lic purposes of a proper character." Hastings Kills a Wicked Hill. Governor Hastings on Friday vetoed the Simons electric light bill. This was a measure which would, if it became n law, compel boroughs and cities to pur chase all electric light plants within their limits before the municipality could erect a plant of its own. Strong pressure was brought to bear on the governor to have him sign the bill, but as its most strenuous advocates, fortu nately for the people, were men who do not belong to the Hastings faction of the Republican party, the (executive made use of bis veto power to even up some past scores. The bill was of particular interest to several of Quay's wealthy backers iu Philadelphia, and they wished tb place an everlasting clasp on their light monopoly in that city. Many smaller monopolists throughout the state were also anxious to bind down cities ami towns where they have a grip, and the measure might have been a law were it not for the squabble among Republican leaders in this state. However, the people at large are thankful for the veto, which, with hL veto of the water monopoly bill two years ago, are the two best things the governor has done since he entered of fice. Let his motives bo overlooked iu the general thanksgiving. Cliuup A(IH fur Country Papers.

Facta and Figures Which Prove ltunk Injustice in Luzerne County. Ink horn in Wilkesbarre Telephone. •lodging from the fact that the funds iu the county treasury available for gen eral expenses are well nigh exhausted, and that returns from the 1897 tax levy may not be paid in before the latter part of September or October, it looks as though the county commissioners will be forced to borrow more money in order to defray current expenditures. It is gen erally known that the county is at pres ent paying 4 per cent interest on 3150,- 000 of bonded indebtedness, besides a temporary loan of 315,000 borrowed from local banks, to meet the largely increas ed expenditures of the county. This I condition of financial affairs in a county having an estimated population of 275,- 000. and a total assessed valuation of real estate, as returned last year by the as sessors, of 327,000,000, is a positive; evi dence; of the; urge-ut need of an immediate; readjustment of the present unequal and unjust method of assessing taxes em all kinds of taxable; property. From time to time we have endeavored to prove by authentic figures and plain state;me;nts of fact, that taxes on ordin ary farm laud, real estate;, personal occupations, etc., is already far too high in this county in proportion te> the tax levied against valuable coal lands ami either other property, which has never been assessed above 2 per cent of its actual market value. The mining and railroad companies ami the; rich men who own and control the coal industry leave; for many years been permitted to successfully evade; pay ing anything like; their proportionate; share of local taxa tion in the; cities, boroughs and town ship whore their coal lands allocated. This fact may be; clearly undcimouU by a fe;w significant, comparisons bearing directly on this subject. For Instance, Luzerne county has a total area ut 920 square; miles e>f improv ed and unimproved land. The actual market value of taxable buildings and lands—agricultural and mineral—has hceui estimated at not less than $300,- 000,900. As stated above, the assessed valuation of all the taxable real estate in the; county as taken from the sworn returns made by local assessors is only 327,000,000. On this valuation a tax rate of nine and a half mills is levied this year for county purposes. Last year the rate of tax levy in the county was seven mills. This makes an in crease of 35 per cent in the county tax as compared with last year, and it is safe to say that municipal and local taxes in citjes, boroughs and townships, outside of tin; agricultural sections of the county, have increased over last year from lu to 25 per cent. Now, a little calm inquiry must con vince any person who will give the sub ject careful consideration, that there is something radically wrong when, iu the face of a general decline iu the value of real estate, we find that both rents and local taxes are increasing. VVe have iu Luzerne county many million dollars worth of taxable property that has never been assessed at more than 2 per cent of its actual value, while farm lands and real estate are usually asScsed at from one-fourth to one-fifth of its market value. Inasmuch as the time is not far distant when the taxpayers of Luzerne county —that is the wage work ers,farmers and rent payers—will become sullicientiy interested iu this subject of unequal taxation to demand an investi gation, we therefore republish an ab stract giving figures, showing to what extent the owners of coal lands have been exempt from paying their legiti mate share of local taxation. Readers should carefully study these figures and preserve them for future reference. It is estimated that the 57,000 acres of coal land within the county contains not loss than 1,419,500,000 tons of market able coal. Tills vast amount of hidden mineral wealth, if figured at only 50 cents per ton, i> worth 3402.50 per acre for each foot thickness of underlying coal. This makes the actual value of the 57,000 acres, with tin; veins an aver age thickness of 20 9-10 foot and allow ing 950 tons per foot per acre, not less than 3709,151,250. As has been re peatedly shown the present assessed value of this coal land is but 38 per foot per acre according to the estimated depth or thickness of ununited coal, making the total assessed valuation of the 57,000 acres only 312,203,400, which is less than 2 per cent of the real value. The tax rati; in the county last year was seven mills on tin; dollar of property valuation; therefore, if we suppose that. rate was assessed against the 57,000 acres of coal laud, then tin; total taxes received by the county from that source wore not more than 385,804.80. Now let the reader stop and consider the real significance of those truly startling figures. Lot us suppose that a seven mill tax had been levied on this coal land and t hat the 57,000 acres had been assessed <Ol the same ratio of valuation last year as fixed by the commissioners on real estate, viz, one-fifth of actual or market, value. On this basis the seven mill levy on 3111,830.250 would yield the county a tax income of 390fi.940.95 for the year; whereas the county, it is safe ! to assume, has never received in any one year more than 370,000 or 380,000 from all the area of coal lands within its boundaries. Governor Hastings has vetoed the ap propriation of 310,000 for the proposed hospital in Mahanoy township, Schuyl kill county, which was hacked by Sen ator Coyle and the Schuylkill represen tative,s. The veto was a disappointment to the people of Mahanoy city. THE TWO WAYS. Two ways confront each soul who enter? 11 fe- The one lends upward to success, The other downward through a devious way To bitter anguish and distress; And every one may choose which way he will; May toll and struggle up the steeps. Or loiter Idly down a flowery path That leads to endless, hopeless deeps. The upward road Is steep and hard to climb, And he who chooses It must strive With grout discouragements; his hands must grusp The Jugged rooks, the thorns must drive Their bitter points, and bloody footprints murk Ills way along the mountain side; And ho must carve the steps by which he climbs With his own hands, or woe betide. And up the toilsome Journey, now and then, The clouds may for u moment lift. And through the fogs that lower on the The sun mny make a tiny rift; And It perchance may bo that some brown bird May cheer his soul with tender song. Or, growing near his feet, a violet May cheer him as he plods ulong. The flowers of friendship blooming by the way Hold much the homesick heart to cheer, The sympathy of fellow travelers on the road Dries many a bitter heart-wrung tear; The toilsome Journey upward through the night Is lighted by the starlit eyes of love, And when the goal is reached at last 'tis found God's cloudless skies stretch out above. Tho downward road Is easy of descent, Its way Is paved with Idle hours; The senses swoon amidst the smothered scent Of earth's most fair and rarest flow'rs; The sound of song and laughter fills the ulr. And music gnyly leads the way With dancing feet that tread the gleaming light, For on the road 'tis ulwuys day. The birds sing ever In the glittering trees, The brooks leap lightly In the sun, And never u cloud obscures tho azure sky, And never a bar of shade may run Across the placid waters of the lakes, Whoso wavelets glow like new pressed wine, I As red us roso blood of fresh-crushed graiK-s That grow along the castled Rhine. A slron sings to woo each wayward heart, And everything Invites to sloth. Fair Pleasure holds u veil before the eyes, And, blinded like a fluttering moth, ' The loiterer seeks kaleidoscopic sweets. Till youth has fled and night comes on, Then wakes to And his life an idle dream— A wasted flower, Its perfume gone. Then choose While hope still sings her lusty song: Tho guide posts have been set by noble souls For warnings as they passed along. —William R.

I)r. William was the older and hud the chief management of af fairs. lie was a very stern man. always ready to punish an offender. When he found a lx>y in mischief he either sen tenced -him to a certain amount of work or introduced him to the pleasures of the birch, wielded by bis own strong arm. Mr. Henry was different from his brother, in that he couldn't be severe if he tried to. When Mr. Henry at tempted to be cross with u boy ull the boy needed to do was to look peni tent, and he was immediately for given. Mother Hopkins attended to the household affairs. She was a kind old soul—full of remedies for bruises and colic and kind words and gmgersnnps— but still she could box a boy's ears when necessary. Thus the school was conducted in n very fair and comfortable manner, and we boys were generally happy. Tom Wish Was my evil genius. He slept in the same bed that I did, and was in the same class. He was much smaller than I, but quick, wiry and smart. I say that Tom was my evil genius, and I mean it, for had it not been for Tom I might have led a peaceable and prosperous life; but, us it was, Tom was always leading me into scrapes und trouble. He never got into scrapes. Oh, no! He always led me into them, and then slipped out while I got the punishment. It was Tom who asked me to climb the old chestnut and get him a robin's nest up in ita branches, because his thumb was so sore he couldn't climb; and, when I got up there, didn't he throw a stone at the big hornet's nest and leave me alone to tight them? It was Tom Who told me to give the gingerbread heart, with the frosted •uigur on it, which my aunt had sent me, to pretty Mary Smith, and, just before we started for cluircfli, stole the cake out of my pocket and put a wrapped-up piece of shingle in its place. Mary never forg*ve me for giving her that piece of shingle, and Tom ate the cake. Tom got me into an awful lot fo scrapes, but the worst one was when lie got me stuck in the garret. It hap pened this way; There was a small cupola on the top of t.lie school, where the big bell wnJ hung. It not only served as u cover for the bell, but was an ornament to the building, having little spires and fancy work stuck on it. To reach the cupola, you had to go up to the garret., which was only floored over in places, the part beneath the cupola having nothing but the hare joist, and the latlis ami plaster of the ceiling below. There had once been a luckier reach ing to the opening by \\ hic.h the cupola was entered, but it had been taken away for some reason. The opening itselt was very narrow, and only u thin per son could get through it. Tom had often expressed his iuten tiou of going up into the cupola, but never tried it till one morning in June. He induced nie to go with him. We managed to get into the garret without being seen, and then tried our best to reach the cupola, but were unsuccess ful. Tom didn't give up, however, and sev eral times I saw him going to the gar ret. At last, one night, he told me he had found away, und said he would try it the next afternoon. The next afternoon was a half-holi day, and we sneaked up to the top ot the house. What was my surprise to find everything as it had been before. I had an idea Tom had rigged up a ladder or something of that kind, and in disgust I turned to go downstairs: but Tom pointed out a lot of empty boxes over in one corner. I immediate ly saw his plan, and we commenced tc arrange the* boxes, one on top of the CAUGHT HOLD OF MY FOOT. other, on the joist below the hole. Tom mounted first, und went through the hole like an eel. Then I followed. I was stouter than Tom, and I found some difficulty in forcing my shoulders through. At last, I managed to get my head, shoulders and arms on the outer side ol the opening, but there 1 stuck. I couldn't get any further to save me. Tom pulled and tugged, und I struggled, but it wus 110 go. Then we both commenced to laugh. J made a desperate effort—got u little further— a little further still—and then accident ally kicked the top box, und over they all went —rattle-te-bong, rartle-te-bang. crash! The top box knocked part of the celling through. Oh, horrors! What if Dr. William should hear the noise? In my excite ment I let my hands slip till 1 hung by my. armpits. Tom looked seared, und said: "You great gawk! What did you do that for?" This set me to luughing again, "What are you luughing at, you booby? How are we going to get down?" This sobered me, and I began to think of the perils of the situation. If I was caught there I would get a whipping. If I let go I would drop through the ceiling and break my legs. If I re mained tlierc I would starve. My arms now commenced to tingle, from their unnatural position, and I told Torn to give me a pull. He valiantly set to work, took hold of my coat-col lar and commenced to pull. "Merciful powers! What's that?" A strong pair of hands caught hold of my foot, and the stern voice of Dr. William was heard saying: "What do you mean by coming up liore, sir? Come down this instant! Don't you hear me, sir? I shall make an example of you before the whole school. Let go this instant, sir. or your punishment will be doubled!" Did you ever hear of such n thing? Did the man want me to break my neck? Did he think T wanted to go through that ceiling like n shot? I heard the voice of Mother Hopkins advising the doctor to pull me"down. Oh, how I hated- her at that moment! The doctor took firm hold of the bottom of my pantaloons, and commenced to j pull. j Tom pulled above, and I remained In the middle. Something had to break. . and it was my susjienders! One but ton. two buttons, and, murder, oh. my trousers! I heard a scream from Mother Hopkins, and then I fell. The doctor picked me up and took me downstairs. All the skin was rubbed off of my left leg, and my right leg was full of splin/ters. Mother Hopkins bound up my wounds, and then the doe tor whipped me before all the school. Did Tom get whipped? Not a bit of it. He waited till the coast was clear, and then swung himself down by a piece of bell rope lie found there. All I have to say in ending Is this— boys, either have your buttons sewed very tightly, or don't attempt to crawl through narrow holes.—Golden Days. How's This I We offer One Hundred Dollar*!
