liams for one year.

Tho objections wore replied to by
Director Huckley, on behalf of tho com
mittee. Ho said tho incroaso In Han
lon's salary was a continuation of a
system inaugurated two years ago and
carried out annually by which this
teacher's salary was increased $2.50 per
month each year. The salary of O'Don
nell was iixod at SSO because the com
mittee felt that the former teacher of
that school, Edgar Schmidt, was un
justly treated when ho received only $45.
The salary of Miss Johnson was lixod at
$37.50 because her work as substitute
last term gave her experience and placed
her above those who never taught. Miss
Crawford's change to Hast South Ileber
ton was part of the plan to place ex
perienced teachers in the isolated
schools, so that new teachers will have
the benefit of associating with the older
instructors.
The increases in monthly salaries are
as follows: George McLaughlin, $5; E.
F. II anion, $2.50; Til lie Lindsay (per
manent certificate class). $2.50; Anna
Sensenbach (professional certificate
class), $2.50; Isahel Crawford (third
year's appointment) $2.50. All former
teachers will, practically. • teach the
same grades us they taught last term.
The report received tho votes of all
members present, Directors Isaac and
Kline asking that their objections be
recorded.
Monday, September 9, was selected as
the date for the opening of the school
term.

Elds from James E. Griffith and L. 11.
Lent/, were read for placing the old
electric light house in condition to servo
as a school room. Tho board had asked
for figures on rooms 25x30 feet and 25x35,
with and without siding.
The bid of Contractor Griffith to erect
a room 25x35 foot, with siding on three
sides and wainscoting on top of plaster,
for SSBO was accepted, and tho officers
wore instructed to have contract signed
at once.
A letter from tho supervising prin
cipal, Mr. Williams, stated he will arrive
hero today and on Saturday will meet
the teachers in the Washington street
building to outline tho work for the
coming term.
Mine Workers' Convention.
About 800 representatives of the
United Mine Workers in the anthracite
region went into session at Ha/Jcton
opera house yesterday. In addition to
delegates from each local in Districts
Nos. 1, 7 and 9, the members of tho ex
ecutive boards of the three districts are
present, also President John Mitchell
and Secretary W. F. Wilson, of the
national body, and members of the
general executive board.
When President John Mitchel opened
the convention ho was greeted with
vociferous applause. Ho then read tho
call, which asked for the special con
vention to settle the four most import
ant questions now before the public:
Tbftt of tho companies breaking the
contracts entered into last October, the
joint convention witli the coal operators,
restriction of the output and the de
mands of the men to inspect the cards
of all workmen.
The convention is tho largest one
ever composed of anthracite miners.
The outcome is problematical. The
gathering is too large to get opinions
from, and the officers will not commit
themselves.

TiCKET NAMED.
I>emoerntl<! County Candidates Chosen
at Wllkeabarre Yesterday.
The following ticket was nominated
at the Democratic county convention at
Wllkeabarre yesterday afternoon. It is
pronounced by party loaders to be the
strongest ticket placed in the field in
many years by the Democrats:
Common pleas judge—Hon. John
Lynch, Wilkesbarro.
Orphans' court judge—Andrew M.
Froas, Esq., Wilkesbarro.
Sheriff —Albert H. Jacobs. Hazleton.
Controller—George U. McLean, Esq..
Wilkes bar re.
Recorder—Jaines Earrott, Wanamie.
Coroner —Dr. W. 11. Eerge, Avoca.
Surveyor—W. E. Allegar, Lu/.erne.
The convention was tho most har
monious gathering of county Democrats
held In five years. The leaders of the
factions who in the past have done so
much to disrupt tho party were con
spicuous by their absence, and the work
of naming a ticket which would com
mand tho respect and the votes of the
citizens proceeded without interruption.
J. Ridway Wright was chairman and
filled tho position in an ideal manner.
He controlled the large body of 300
dolegat.es and I,soospectators with easr,
and it was due in a large measure to his
promptness and impartiality that the
business moved so rapidly and satis
factorily.
On the committeo on organization tho
Fourth district was represented by J. I\
Costello, of Hazleton, and Frank Mc-
Hugh, of Jeddo, and on contested seats
by Edward Erennan, of Freoland.
Tho resolutions contained a section
committing tho convention to tho nomi
nation of only one candidate for judge
of common pleas. There was a feeble
protest against tho section, but the
resolutions were adopted by a over
whelming majority.
Judge Lynch had no opposition. His
name was presented by William .S. Mc-
Lean, Esq.
For orphans' court judge A. M. Froas
and Edwin Short/, were named, the
former by W. H. lllnns and tho latter by
Charles Lonahan. The vote was ISI to
108 in favor of Freas, which was a sur
prise to many people, as Short/, was
thought to be stronger.
On this vote tho Fourth district dele
gates divided, with a majority support
ing Freas. Hazleton City and West
Hazleton split even, liazlo township
gave Freas seven and Short/, eight votes,
Foster gave Froas sovon of its nine
votes and Freoland gave Freas the votes
from the Third and Fifth wards. On
motion of Charles Lenahan, who named
Short/., the nomination of Freas was
made unanimous.
All the other candidates were nomi
nated by acclamation.
