To demonstrate tbo unusual curative
powers of iis new and complete special

short breath, pain in the side, oppression
in the chest, irregular pulse, palpitation,
smothering spells, pulling of the ankles,
or dropsy. Dr. Miles will send four dol
lars worth fre as a trial, to all who
mention this paper.
Ills treatments are the result of twenty
five years of careful study, extensive re
search, and remarkable experience in
treating iho various ailments of the
heart, stomach and nerves, which so
often complicate each case. So aston
ishing are the results of his complete
special treatments that he does not hes
itate to offer all persons a trial free.
Nothing could be more generous. Few
physicians have such confidence in their

BOARD FAILS TO
GIVE RELIEF
Large Enrollment at Schools
Not Yet Adjusted.
Number of Pupils in Rooms
Varies From 26 to 95 and
Conditions Prevent Many
Necessary Promotions.
The October meeting of the borough
school board was held last evening, with
Directors Brogan, Buckley, Fetterman,
Isaac, Kline, McUeeh&n and Shel
hamer present.
The most Important business that
came before the board was the question
of how certain rooms could be relieved
of their crowded condition. A tabu
lated report from Supervising Principal
Flanlon, giving tbo enrollment of each
school, showed tho total number of
pupils on the rolls to be 987. One of
tho primary teachers has as high as 95
scholars, while anothor has only 26.
The primary department throughout
showed a very heavy incroaso over tho
opening month of last term, but judging
froin the records of former years the
primary grades are expected to adjust
themselves satisfactorily as soon as
cooler weather arrives.
Mr. Zimmerman's school at Blrvanton
was found to contain 90 pupils, of which
26 are ready for promotion to the fourth
grade. These children should now be
sent to Mr. Farrar's school, In the Ridge
street building, but as he has a class of
25 which Is ready for promotion to the
fifth grade, taught by Miss McLaughlin,
In the Daniel Coxe building, and the
latter having 66 pupils, the promotions
conld not be made by the supervising
principal. As a result Mr. Zimmerman
and Mr. Farr&r have grades and pupils
which do not now belong In their schools
and are given more work than should
devolve upon them.
The report from East South Ileberton
building gave 26 pnplls In room No. 1,
taught by Miss Brown, and 35 in room
No. 2, taught by Mls9 Crawford, a total
of 61 In the building. From Investiga
tions made U was learned that the at
tondence at tho East South Ileberton
building is not likely to Increase any,
and this conclusion was borne out by
last term's records.
The supervising principal suggosted
to the dlrecters that if the board cannot
employ another teacher, one remedy
that could bo applied to more equitably
arrange the schools, to the advantage of
teachers and pupil*, would be to close
one room at East South Ileberton and
have all the pupils taught by one
teacher. This would give the board a
teacher who could bo placod In South
Washington street building, and by open
ing a fifth grade school there the advanc
ed pupils of Mr. Farrar, numbering 25,
with 20 from Mis 9 McLaughlin would
fill the room.
This would also relieve Mr. Farrar
and provide accommodation in bis room
for the 26 pupils in Mr. Zlmmorman's
school, who are unavoidably prevented
by existing conditions from being pro
moted.
It would further aid in adjustment by
reducing the Blrvanton school enroll
ment to 64, while the East South Ileb
erton school would have 61. Both
would be primary schools and would be
on an equal footing.
None of tho directors offering any
plan which would in any way solve the
problem before the board, Director
Buckley, acting on the principal's sug
gestion, offered a motion to close room
No. 1 at East South Beberton, transfer
the pupils to room No. 2, and reopen
South Washington street school.

Notice is hereby (riven that Ellen Boyle bus

pleas of Luzerne county, asking the appoint
ment of a guardiuu of the '-state of Bridget

appearing to be in proper form, the court has
directed the same to be tiled, and hus appoint

Jobu M. Carr,
Attorney fur Petitioner.
FREELAND, PA., FRIDAY, OCTOBER 3, 1902.
The motion received the votes of
Director* Brogan, Buckley, Fetterman
and McGeehan. Directors Isaac and
Shelhamer voted against It and Director
Kline refused to vote. The motion wa9
declared lost by Chairman Brogan,
having failed to secure a majority of
the members of the board, as required
by law.
After the ballot had been taken Mr.
Kline suggestod that perhaps an In
crease in the salary of the teacher who
would be chosen for room No. 2 would
make the proposed change satisfactory.
Mr. Shelhamer registered a protest
against placing Mr. Farrar as principal
of Ridge street school at a less salary
than was received by Mr. McLaughlin,
who heretofore held the position. The
protesting director failed to note in bis
remarks that the supervising principal
is receiving an aunual salary of 8300 less
than his predecessor and that the vice
principal Is teaching for $7 50 per month
less than last term's vice principal and
that the teacher whose particular cause
he espoused Is, with the others whose
duties were Increased without a corres
ponding Increase In the salary, satisfi
ed to perform tho duties while the dis
trict's finances are In their present con
dition.
In accordance with the annual custom
of the board the school taxes of Free
land Overall Mnfg. Company were or
dered exonerated for tho current year.
The building committee was author
ized to have a dead tree at East South
Ileberton building removed without
cost to tho district, parties having offer
ed to cut It down for the wood con
tained therein.
The secretary was ordered to notify
the parents of the boy who broke a
window light In Daniel Coxe building to
replace the samo at once or the board
would do so and charge them the cost, 83.
A shortage of certain books was re
ported by the supervising principal and
tho samo were ordered purchased.
The secretary reported that arrange
ments to supply the schools with coal
have been made at Sandy Run.
The officers wore authorized to draw
orders for tho bond interest, amounting
to 8640, due on the 10th Inst., and the
following bills wore ordered paid: L.
H. Lentz, repairs, 8101.61; M. J. Geary,

ing a program that will undoubtedly be
Interesting and Instructive.
Remarkable Procession.
With tholr band playing and with
cheers for "Union, Mitchell" and Cen
tralia," 127 striking miners from the
latter town, who insisted upon a hearing,
were taken to Bloomsburg by Deputy
Sheriff Black and given a hearing In
Columbia county court house. No other
place would hold tho crowd.
At least 1,500 people were present.
After hearing the testimony of a number
of witnesses, Justice of the Peace
Jacoby discharged them on their own
recognizances. The testimony all went
to show that no violence of any kind
was offered. The prosecution admitted
this.
The prisoners made up tho mo9t pe
culiar procession that ever entered
Bloomsburg. Every member of Cen
tralia band was arrested, and every one
brought his Instrument. Byway of dl
verson the band rendered a concert.
The prisoners Included the chief
burgess of Centralia, several council
men, school directors, overseers of the
poor—in fact, practically all of the bor
ough's officers.
MAY END STRIKE.
Conference at Washington Today Is
Likely to Have Good Effect.
From Today's North American.
Washington, October 2—Confidence
In the prompt settlement of the coal
strike, as a result of the conference the
president will hold tomorrow with tho
presidents of tho coal roads and Presi
dent Mitchell, of the Mine Workers'
Association, exists throughout the ad
ministration The president has not
expressed an opinion for publication,
but that ho believes the strike will
terminate almost immediately is an
nounced by all who bave discussed tbo
situation with him.
Even the failure of tho conference to
produce results will not prevent the
president from continuing his efforts to
put an end to existing conditions in tho
coal regions. He has other plans pre
pared, but does not want to put them
into execution until he has tried tho ef
fect of moral snaslon upon the represen
tatives of both sides to the conflict.
Whether Mr. Roosevelt will make
known to those he has invited to meet
him tho steps which will follow in case
no agreement is reached tomorrow is
not known.
Criminal proceedings against the ope
rators have been considered and decided
upon, it is understood, and recommenda
tions to congress to enact legislation, in
tho shape of amendments to the inter
state commerce law, which will give the
president authority to prevent a recur
rence of the present situation have been
outlined.
Another plan, which the president Is
said to have under consideration, is to
urge Governor Stone to call an extra
session of the Pennsylvania legislature
to deal with the question.
It 19 the opinion of the cabinet that
the government of Pennsylvania has
ample authority and power to terminate
the strike If It desires to do so, and in
the event of failure to bring about an
agreement tomorrow tho president will
communicate with Governor Stone.
All these plans are supplemental to
tho effort the president will make to
compel tho mine operators to listen to
reason and aid In averting a situation
which may be the most disastrous In
the history of the country.
They may be all unnecessary, and the
president and his advisors hope they
will be. As nearly as can be ascer
tained, it is not the intention of the
president to threaten tho oporators, but
to make a plain, common-senso state
ment to them of the danger which
menaces the whole country as the re
sult of their obstinacy.
It is possible the immediate result of
the conference may not develop for sev
eral days. In tho nature of the case, it
Is presumed the president will submit
propositions which both sides may wish
to consider before agreeing to them.
But the need for action Is so urgent
that the president will demand an
early reply, even If no defiulte decision
is rendered at once.
HOLDING THE CONFERENCE.
A dispatch from Washington to tho
Ilazleton Plain Speaker this afternoon
states that the conference wont into
session at 11 a. m. today. An informal
meeting was held, after which an ad
journment until 3 p. m. was taken.
At the latter hour President Roose
velt, the coal road presidents and the
union's officials reconvened. Up to
3.30 o'clock no news had boon given out.
