HIGH SCHOOL
IN TOWNSHIP
Foster Directors Decide to
Establish One.
Will Be Located at Wood
side and a Committee of
Teachers Is Chosen to Pre
pare a Course of Studies.
All members of Foster township school
board were present at the regular ses
sion Saturday evening.
There was a long discussion but no
action was taken hi the matter of giving
the teacher at Hazlo Brook 860 per
month. The teacher received an in
crease of 85 at the opening which allows
him s">s.
The committee reported in relation to
the Aubrey girl of Eckloy that she
could attend any school she may choose,
but would have to pay hr own tuition.
The report of the principal showed
an enrollment of 1,021, attendance 037,
percentage 87. The directors in charge
of ilazle Brook, Foundryville and High
land schools will attend matters called
to their attention by the principal.
Woodside school was designated as a
high school and the following teachers
will draw up a course of studies:
Messrs. Hoffman, MeGlll, Ilighams,
Alden and Mctieehan.
It was decided to permit the substi
tute teacher to attend county institute
at the board's expense.
It was decided to purchase a Webster
dictionary for the Pond Creek school.
Upper Lehigh aud Highland schools
were reported crowded beyond the com
fort mark.
The matter of the vaccination of
school children was referred to the soli
citor for an opinion.
The tax question caino before the
board and surprised the members re
garding the way the duplicate was made
out. It was shown that 13 mills was
collected for building and 13 for school
purposes and $1 minimum also. It was
claimed that this has been done iu the
township in previous years, but at the
time Messrs. Woodring and Lesser were
installed promises to make a reduction
In taxes were mot by lopping off of thV
81 minimum.
The present board, in making the tax
rate, understood that it would be the
same as last year, but the parties lilling
out the duplicate made an unwarranted
increase in the levy without authority.
The solicitor will bo asked for an
opinion.
President Johnson delivered a short
talk to those persons who take delight
in trying to make things unpleasant for
the board. He said the present directors
did nothing they need be ashamed of.
Pointing to the walls, on which were
hung base relief maps, he said it was
such deals that caused suspicion of
wrong on tiie part of directors. The
maps in question were purchased some
years ago aud have never been used.
The president rebuked in pointed
terms those who aro trying to foruient
trouble in the township by stirring up
race prejudices. Every one of the
criticized directors, the president stated,
was a native-born American, two of
them owning Foster township as their
birthplace. He deplored the lack of
honor which the board's t.raducers has
shown, and promised that If the matter
would become necessary to refer to again
lie would deal witli the disturbers more
vigorously.

Picture of Band and Firemen.
Saturday's Philadelphia North Ameri
can contained a line live-column cut of
St. Ann's band arid tho Citizens' Hose
Company. The features ef tho band
men and the firemen show up perfectly
and the members of both organizations
feel proud of their handsome appear
ance and tho unusual attention they at
tracted in a city which was crowded
with bands and fire companies. The
picture was taken on the roof of the
North American's now twenty-story
building.
The North American pays tho follow
ing compliment to Freeland's represen
tatives in the biff parade:
"None of the many companies who
came presented a finer appearance than
the Citizens' lloso Company, No. 1, of
Freeland. There were fifty-three men,
in smart uniforms of dark green, ac
companied by tho St. Ana's cornot band,
of Freeland. They serenaded the North
American from tho pavement first, and
afterwards gave a concort lasting nearly
an hour on the roof."
Foot Ball Games.
The Crescents appeared yesterday for
the first time in their handsomo new
uniforms. The club celebrated tho
event by winalng two games. Thoy de
feated the Columbians, 5 to 0, on tho
1111 l in tho forenoon, and tho Layouts,
10 to 5, at tho Tigers park in tho after
noon.

afternoon at Drifton patk. Tho game
was Interesting all through, neither side
being allowed to score. Tho clubs will
meet soon again.
Tho Good Wills will play Hazleton
Young Americas at Jcanosvllle next
Sunday.
Did Joe Get His Price?
From the Wilkosburre Telephone.
Aftor much travail, and waiting, Jot
Lloyd has finally succumbed to tho in
ducements held out by the crowd who
defeated him, and has withdrawn his op
position to Dick for controller. This is
very nice of Joe, and wo trust ho had
the good sense to swell his bank account
considerable, for the sacrifice ho made.
If ho failed to get something substan
tial he is a foolish young man, for he may
never again have such a good oppor
tunity. Joe is protty slick goods
though, and Its safe to wager that ho
hasn't wasted any chance to make him
self solid.
Wants .Denomination.
The following special dispatch from
Hazleton appeared in today's North
American: "Harry Haworth, who rep
resented the Fourth district of Luzerno
county in tho last legislature, will be a
candidate for rcnomination. Despite
much protest from his constituents, ho
voted for Senator Quay and the Gang's
notorious bills. Now, it is asserted, lie
seeks 'vindication.'- There are other as
pirants for legislative honors, and it is a
safe prediction that Haworth will not
succeed himself."
Coll Won Foot Race.
A foot race between Joseph Coll, of
Ebervale, and Thomas Howley, of
Hazleton, for a purse of §IOO, attracted ;
a large number of sports to tho Tigers
park Saturday afternoon. Both men
are fast runners, but Coll secured a
start and held It to tho end, covering
the hundred-yard course four feet ahead
of his opponent. The time of the win
ner was H Q seconds, which is consider
ed good in tho face of a strong, cold
wind.
Notice to Milk Huyern.
Notice is hereby given that on and
after Monday, October 14, 1901, the
price of milk sold by the milk dealers of
Freeland and vicinity will be 8 cents
pel* quart when purchased in quantities
of less than four quarts per day; to pur
chasers of four or more quarts per day
milk will bo sold at the rate of 6 cents
per quart. Above prices are to con
tinue in force until May 1, 1901.
This slight Increase in the price of
milk is made necessary by the increase
In the cost of hay, feed, etc., during the
fall and winter months. Patrons are
r quested to hear in mind the fact that
milk costs considerable more to produce
dining ihe above months and that the
small advance made barely covers our
increased expenses. Believing that our
patrons will concede us the right to ask
a reasonable profit in the conduct of our
business, and requesting your further
patronage, we remain.
Respectfully yours,
Milk Dealers of Freeland and Vicinity.

Large Detective Bills. -
From the Wilkeßbarre Record.
With respect to tho drawing of some
four thousand dollars in detective fees
from tho county treasury by Herman
Barring a few days ago District Attor
ney Jones said that tho payment of
§1,281 of tho amount for work in the
Capeco murder case was an outrage.
The district attorney said he did not
know tho bill was paid until ho saw it
in tho newspapers. He said the agency
furnished a foreigner to try and get a
confession from Capece whllo he was in
jail. The foreigner was in a coll witli
Capece for nine or ton days but got
nothing. Then lie spent a fow days in
Freeland but Mr. Jones said tho testi
mony lie secured threw no light on the
case.
Mr. Jones said §IOO would have been
good pay for tho work performed.
Instead a bill for over twelve times
that amount is paid. He says ho does
not know what tho commissioners worn
about when thoy approved it.
Mr. Barring was seen by the Record.
He said he would have a statement to
make at the proper time. The hills,
he said, were itemized and were gone
over item by item with the commission
ers and they were by no means exhorbi
tant.
