The instruments used by St. Patrick's cornet band, twonty-six in number, wore turned over by tho members on Tuesday evoning to a committee representing St. Patrick's Beneficial Society, under whose auspices the band was organized in 1874 and which is owner of tho instruments. This was done at tho request of the society, owing to differences which have arisen between it and the band during the past few years. The principal point at issue was tho society's decision to enforco tho original agreements made between tho two organizations, one of which provided that all members of the band must be members of the society. This was not agreeably rocuivod by the band members, and for souio mouths the breach has been widening. On Sunday tho society instructed its committee to take decisive action, as above stated. Tho band members have decided to continue tho organization. Instruments will be obtained as soon as possible to fill engagements made to play next month, and in the meantime arrange ments will be mado to procure a now set. Tho members state that tho ques tion of the name of the band has not been definitely settled, but will bo in a short while. The society's instruments were placed on Tuosday evoning in care of Rev. M. J. Falllhoo, and will be held by him un til the vacancies created this week in the band are filled. This, it is stated, will be done very soon, several applica tions having been received from formor members and others who are musically inclined. The friends of both sides regret that the difficulties were not amicably settled beforo the rupture occurred between the two organizations. As it is, the in dications are that two bands will be the outcome of the trouble. School Board Meeting. Tho borough school board mot last evoning. The building committee, J. W. Everitt, chairman, recommended Mrs. Mulheran and Mrs. Stein to cleun the South Hnberton schools at #0 and #lO respectively; that tho rebuilding of wail and stone steps in same buildings bo given to John Efstnor for #lO, and that laborers bo paid #1.25 per day to level grounds around Daniel Coxoschool. The report was accepted. Tho teachers' and pupils' committee, J. F. Sweeney, chairman, read addition al rules and regulations for pupils, teachers and the government of schools, also rules and the duties of tho janitor. A discussion took place regarding a sec tion iu the janitor's duties which requir ed that his spare time be dbvoted to the fixing and care of tho grounds around the Daniel Coxe school. A motion to strike out the above was opposed by Mr. Sweeney, who claimed the care of the grounds to be part of the janitor's duties. Director Trevaskls maintained, in view of the duties al ready imposed, that it would be burden ing the janitor. The motion carried, Messrs. Sweeney and Schaub voting against it, and all other members, ex cept Messrs. Ferry and Vanhorn, who were absent, voting for it. It was agreed to accept all otlior rules and regulations as submitted, with the amendments. Charged With Buying VutcN. As a result of more exposures as to alleged scandals in connection with Schuylkill county almhouso, a warrant was on Monday issued for the arrest of Liin Bowman, a yonng attorney, on the charge of bribery. They were pre ferred before Alderman Toomey, of Shenandoah, by County Dotoctivc J. J. Toole, who alleges that Bowman did in the latter part of 1890 and early in 18'.)7 offer and givo money to Lerl Dietrich, who was then a director of the poor, for the lattor's voto for positions at tho almshouse for Gordon Reed and Isaac Huoy, that tho money was collected from Reed and Huoy by Bowman and part of It was paid in 181)7 to Dietrich. Bowman will bo arranged as soon as ho returns from a camping trip. Gordon Reed, and ex-steward, and Isaac Iluoy, an ox-keopor of the almshouse, were placed under bail on similar charges. Poor Director Frederick A. Heckens field is also under bail for alleged bri bery in connection with filling appoint ments at the almshouse. Killed at Glen Onoko. William Murphy, of VVilkesbarre, was struck by a Central Railroad froight train at Glon Onoko at midnight Tues day night and so badly injured that he he died in the hospital car at Wilkes barrc next morning. Murphy was well dressed and had considorablo money. He and Frank Casey were going to New York to spend thoir vacations.

Legislative Convention*. The Republicans of the Fourth legis lative district met at Iluzleton on Mon day afternoon and nominated Frank L. Snyder, of that city, us their candidate for the assembly. The convention was a tamo affair, the bosses of tho district having complete control, and tho dele gates were mere figure-heads In tho pro ceedings. There was a semblance of a contest, of course, but it amounted to nothing. T. A. Harris was presiding officer and Harry Hay worth was secre tary. The legislative candidates were Mr. Snyder and Joseph Sherry. The vote was 33 to 11 in Snyder's favor.' For district chairman there were three candidates.

An Int*>renting Trip To Niagara Falls via Lehigh Valley Rail road, September 9 —85. Bick Soldiers Coming Home. About fifty of tho Ninth regiment's convalescent soldiers arrived in Wilkos barre from Chickamauga on Monday afternoon, and wore met at the depot by about 200 of their relatives and friends. It was an affecting scene to soo the joy ous home-coming of the boys when they were met bv parents, brothers and sisters. The news that the train would arrive was known to but few. and as a consequence those present numbered but few in comparison with the many who would have been there to greet them had the time of tin- arrival been generally known. A telegram in the morning stated that there would bo fifty-ono soldiers ou the train. It was feared many of them would be sick and in need of medical attention, and four ambulances each were donated by the Lehigh Valley Coal Company and the Lehigh and Wilkos barro Coal Company, also one from the City hospital and the one owned by the Ninth regiment. Tho train containing the soldiers ar rived at 12.45 and a rush was made for the soldiers. Hut the boys in blue wero requested to remain in their seats and I)rs. Lenahan and Fell made a hasty inspection and found all the soldiers convalescent and anxious to go to their homes. The cars hacked to where the ambu lances and cabs wore in waiting, but only one of the great number, Edward Leroux, of Rickotts, entered a cab. Tho remainder of the sick soldiers eagerly sought their friends and went to their homes. Preparations were made to accommo date large numbers by tho City and Mercy hospitals, and the Gorman Catho lic hall had been fittod up for tho same purpose. All the sick, however, pre ferred to go homo, with tho exception noted. On Sunday night a train load of sick reached Philadelphia from Chicka uiauga, and among them was a dozen members of the Ninth. Some of these | are in a serious condition. Ovor a !Milllon Pensioners. In tho forthcoming annual report of the Commissioner of Pensions. 11. Clay Evans, it will bo shown that on June 30, 1897, there wore on the rolls of the pension bureau 975,014 pensioners. To this must be added 0,853 original claims granted but not recorded and 702 restorations, which were not entered at the time on the books. Commissioner Evans granted 03,048 original claims i during the past year and restored 4,080 pensioners to the boneflts of pensions. Tho pensioners now aggregate 1,040,350. Moro pensions wore granted last year than any time from 1800 up to 1880. There is absolutely no means of even approximating what the claims will bo under the recent war. The pension of fice has done nothing with tho claims that have been filed up to this time. Hefore a claim can be perfected it must contain the full record of the soldier's service, and this information has not yet been compiled by the war depart ment. When this is done tho claims will bespocdily taken up. Tho majority of claims will be for wounds and sick ness, the latter leaving the soldier more or less disabled. No additional legislation will bo re quired to deal with the cases arising from this war. The present laws, tho authorities say, cover all that is neces sary, and claims will be adjudicated on the samo linos as those of the rebellion. Not Favorably Received. The Freeland correspondent of the Iluzleton Plain Speaker tells in the fol lowing paragraph how the nomination of Mr. Snyder for representative is re ceived by his party on the North Side. "Frank Snyder, the Republican nomi nee for representative, will not receive tho united support of the North Side Republicans. There is no denying the fact that there are scores upon scores of new county advocates residing within the borough limits and every man of thorn will cast his ballot against the Republican nominee, as they believe him to be opposed to tho now county. If the Democrats nominate a strong candi date Mr. Snyder will receive a slim vote, in Freeland. Should they fail to nomi nate the proper sort of a candidate, I). M. Evans will receive a large vote on the North Sido." Two Millions h Year. When people buy, try and buy again, it moans they're sutisUcd.

New York, Aug. 25.—At the meeting of the Executive Committee of the Women's War Relief Association held at the Windsor Hotel it was announced that Miss Helen Could had given #25.- 000 to the association for the relief work now in progress. The money will be used in purchasing supplies for the various camps, but principally for the one at Montault Point. Miss Gould has been a member of ihe association since it was formed and recently was elected Assistant Director-General. In this ca pacity she has presiikd at the meetings held lutely, owing to the absence of Mrs. Ellen Hardin Walworth, the Dl roctor-General. The lattor has now HISS HKI.KN OnrLl). established headquarters at Montauk Point and directs all the relief work of the association there. When the society turned its atten tion to the camp at Montauk Point Miss Gould was one of the first to go there to find out the needs of the men. She has made two visits to the camp so far, and after each visit has personally superintended the purchasing of the supplies required. Two weeks ago it was announced that she had given Sji.'iuO to the fund of the association, and sev eral contributions had been made by her previous to that. In addition to this assistance Miss Gould, with some of the other members of the associa tion, has visited several of the hospital ships and offered to supply anything that was needed. In several cases the offer was accepted and supplies wer:■ purchased by her. On her visits to Camp Wlkoff Miss Gould has gone all over the camp, as it was her desire to come in close contact with the men and learn their needs in detail. It was the observations thus made that led Miss Gould to make the gift of $2.",< 100. FROM CAMP WIKOFF.
