The New school Building.

The building committee of the Lancaster
school board have received from the archi-
tect, Frank E. Davis, the working plans
of the new school-hOuse on Lemon street.
The committee express themselves much
pleased with the plans which have been
somewhat modified by Mr.. Davis to meet
the views of the committee. There will
be transOms above the doors, the stairways
will be of slate instead of wood, as the
original plan proposed, the whole front of
the building will be pressed brick, and
some improvement has also been made in
the plan of the roof The committee is
almost ready to advertise for proposals for
the erection of the building.
In this connection it may be stated that
the school controllers of Harrisburg have
rejected all the bids for the erection Of the
new school building in that city, on ac-
count Of their being one third higher than
the estimated cost (s1G, ,OOO), and have had
prepared new plans with view Of keeping
the cost down to that amount. The plan
adopted represents building 81 by 80 feet
in dimensions, two stories and half high,
with cupola. 1t will contain twelve
rooms, wide halls, and the front will be
adorned with handsome porch. The
building will be ventilated according to
the most approved plan. Two large tlues
will run from the bottom to the top of the
building, connected with all of the rooms.

SUPPOSED CHICKEN THIEVES.
Father and Son Arrested Oh Suspicion.

Father and Son Arrested Oh Suspicion.
This morning two colored men, Henry
Watson and VIM. Watson, father and son
residing near the foot of the Welsh noun
tain, southeast of New Holland, were ar
rested while attending the Lancaster mar
ket, their stock in trade consisting of over
fifty chickens, which it is believed they
had stolen, rs they have been attending
market with chickens for two or three
months. Officers Adams and Killinger,
who made the arrest, have been informed
that a great many chickens have been
stolen from farmers in the vicinity of New
Holland and that the men arrested
have long been suspected of the
larceny. 1t is hoped, if they are guilty. the
owners of the fowls will come forward,
identify their property, and thus aid in
having the guilty punished. The chickens
are of all sizes and colors, most Of them
being old fowls. They are in the keeping
of Alderman Spurrier, who has placed
them in a large coop in rear of bis office.
The Watsons came to market i'll an
open two-horse wagon, and besides the
chickens had in their possession two
seamless three -bushel bags marked sc.
Musser," and numbered respectively So
and "26." They had also good but
faded Horse blanket, Of gray color, with
blue and purple stripes. The blanket was
mended with piece of black cashmere,
the patch being sewed on with sewing
machine.
The Watsons were locked up for hear
ing at time not yet fixed. Officer
Adams and Detective Sprecher took their
team and drove down to the neighborhOod
in which the Watsons live, in expectation
of getting further information about them
and probably finding the owners OF the
chickens.

OBITUARY.,
Death OF Chief Justice Church.

Sanford E. Church, widely known as a
jurist and for the last ten years chief JUS
tice of the state of New York, died sud
denly in Albion yesterday afternoon.
Judge Church was born in Milford, Otsego
county. New York, April 1S, 1915. He
studied law and early rose to eminence at
the bar and power in politics. He was
twice. lieutenant governor and once comp
troller of the state. Twice he was defeated
as the Democratic candidate for ComptroI-
Ter and once for Congress from theTwenty-
seventh New York district. A steadfast
Democrat and enjoying the entire conf
dence of his party, not only in New York
but throughout the Union, he declined
many offers of political appointments, not
only from his own party, but from the
opposition. In May, 1870, he was rendered
the high position of chief justice of
New York by Governor Hoffman, and that
he accepted and held until the day of his
death. In 1872 and 1876 he was promin-
emily considered in connection with the
Democratic nomination for the presidency.

A COURT which would preserve the re-
spect of the community must maintain
it's own self-respect. Nonewsppaper dis
cussion nor report of facts can bring
judges into disrepute unless thsy bring
themselves into disrepute, and then no
suppression nor reinstatement of the
facts can save the court from the public
contumely which its own conduct in
vites. No attorney should be compelled
to defend himself from improper assaults
made upon him before the court; but
when the court fails to properly protect
the assailsd it cannot be expected to pun
ish breaches of decorum by those whom
its own impotency compels to defend
themselves. These self evident truths
are reinforced by repeated exemplica-
tions in these times of judicial degen-
eracy.

FEARFUL RUNAWAY ACCIDENT.
Mrs. George Kanm and Son Serlously
Injured.

Mrs.. George Kanm and Son Seri0usly
Injured.
This morning about 8 o'clock Mrs.
George Kamm and her son, aged about
IA years, while driving across the Penn
sylvania railroad at the Walnut street
crossing, were struck by an engine, the car
riage in which they were riding was
wrecked, Mrs. Kamm and her son were
thrown out and both of them severely in
jured-Mrs. Kamm having her shoulder
dislocated, her shoulder blade broken, one
or more ribs broken, and sustained besides
other severe injuries. The son suffered
some severe cuts about the head and face
and was SO badly stunned for time rs to
be unconscious.
The facts are as follows Mrs. kamm
and her son drove up North Prince street
to Walnut and intended to turn into Wal
nut, and cross the railroad at that point,
Henry Martin, of the Relay house, cautioned
them not to attempt to cross the track as
he heard an engine approaching, though
it was hidden from view by the Relay
house. The boy, who was driving,
either did not understand him or
thought he could cross safely,
and drove upon the track. At that instant
engine No. 16O, in charge of Nicholas Gil
man, engineer, backed up the track in
rear of the Relay house and struck the
hind wheel of Kamm's carriage. The
| frightened horse rushed into the open gate
of Sener's lumber yard, on the opposite
side of the street, and one of the hind
wheels of the carriage striking the gate
post the spindle was broken off, the car
riage capsized, and Mrs. Kamm and the
boy were thrown out and injured
as above stated, and the top OF
the wagon was torn from the rum
ming gears. With the wrecked running
gears hanging to him the horse made a
complete circuit of Sener's lumber yard

LOCAL INTELLIGENCE.
ANOTHER FIRE.

Sylvester's Sweating Establishment Again
Damaged,
About half past eleven o'clock last night
another fire was discovered in the ware
house, on Cherry alley, north Of Chestnut
street, and occupied by Lewis Sylvester &
Co. as tobacco sweating establishment.
The fire was in the basement and was dis
covered by Private Watchman Shu5rooks,
who at once gave an alarm. 1t appears
that the sweating frame had taken fire
from the gasoline stove that supplies the
heat for sweating purposes. The firemen
were soon on the ground, and the fire was
extinguished without much difficulty, the
loss to the building being trifling. The
loss by water was more serious, MIR. Syl-
vestcr's tobacco being damaged to the ex-
tent of several hundred dollars, and he has
no insurance. Mr.. Sylvester will discOn-
tinue the sweating Of tobacco at the above
named warehouse.

All in the Smell.

1t seems to be pretty well settled that
Grant purposes to hold his hackers to
their pledges, and that Cameron, Conk-
ling & Co., are to he offered no easy road
out of their trouble by his with
drawal. He has his blood up and his ap-
petite whetted. He has looked at the
prize so long as his for the asking, that
when he finds it is not to he so easily had
he burns to possess it. Itgrows precious
as it vanishes. When he had it in his
hands, as lie thought a few months ago,
he did not want it, and was not a can
didate, and would only take it as
a duty to the people. Then he
could afford to snub the Philadelphia
politicians. Now he has a different idea
about it. He haunts his workers. head
quarters. His emissaries travel and
scheme. Horace Porter, who was his
right hand man i'm the days of the preSi
dency, and who is accredited with vast
deal of political cunning, handles the
reins of the machine. He entered the
Senate yesterday, and at once Cameron
and Conkling tlewt his side. No doubt
Porter is good man for the work.
Old Governor Porter was a shrewd
politician and Horace inherits his cum
ming. He has not been openly in the
line of business, as he finds it more prof
liable to do his work under the rose and
look to collateral influences for his ben
eft. He has richly feathered his nest.
the Pullman palace car monopoly being
his chief OStensible teat. He is ready to
lend full hand to Grant. 1t has paid in
the past, and will in the future, if he
pulls through.
Naturally Cameron and Conkling were
glad to see him. They wanted comfort.
Logan having failed to get Illinois by the
hair, and Pennsylvania and New York
kicking violently in their grasp, they are
worried. Something must be done. 1t
must be demonstrated beforehand that
Grant has the convention, or New York
and Pennsylvania will abandon him.
The Pennsylvania delegates especially
have no love for him. They will 60 for
him only when they certainly scent the
flesh pots on that side. If the fragrant
odors do not seem to come from the
Grant kitchen they will have no stomach
for him.

THE sudden destruction which fire has
brought upon a Pennsylvania town calls
strongly upon the sympathy of the peo-
pie, and no doubt prompt and ample sue
cor will be rendered. The governor in
vites the mayor to call for the contribu-
tions of the people of Lancaster, which
he, of course, does. The calamity is not
an ordinary one. The people at home
cannot take care of the sufferers where
all are sufferers. There will in few
days be no lack of assistance rendered by
a people that is always generous in
such moments; but prompt help is
needed and those who give first will con-
fer the greatest benefit. We trust that
all our people who are able will send
their contributions to-day to the mayor.
AS tomorrow is Sunday the churches
may be disposed to take up a special col
lection for this object.

Sanford E. Church.

The sudden death of Judge Church |
takes one of the prominent candidates
from the Democratic presidential field.
Although but sixty-five years old at the
time of his death, he had long been
noted character in Democratic politics.
In 1868 he was the choice of New YORK
for president. Those who knew hlm
found in him a man who would have
adorned the highest political station. lie
was endowed with very strong mlnd,
which was not specially that OF a law
yer, but which was broad enough to en-
able him to fulfil satisfactorily the duties
of any position. He made an excellent
chief justice of the court of appeals, buS
his elevation to that high Office did not
take him out of the eyes of the people as
a candidate for political office, and he
himself did not rest easily IN
it. His talents for the duties
of the statesman were too marked
to enable him to be buried quietly in
judgeship. He had a wide circle of sin
cere admirers and warm friends, who
will feel that notwithstanding his dis
tinctiOn he did not fill the place in the
world which he was born to occupy. III
New York had been more ''unanimous
state, Judge Church might have secured
wider fame But the jealousies OF
politicians, there as everywhere,
make it well-nigh impossible for great
ness to command it's true reward. The
New York Democracy have many great
men among them, but they are not those
always who figure most prominently be-
fore the public. Honesty and modesty
are, as they ought not to be, drag weights
to fame and place. Judge Church was
not a trickster. His merit was of the solid
est kind. He was one who would not have
disappointed the expectations OF the
people whatever the station to which
they might have elevated him. He was
Democrat by nurture and nature. lie
had faith in the people and in the writ
ten constitutions which protected their
rights. He never could have been des-
pot himself, however unrestricted his
power; and upon the sturdy honesty and
strong good sense of such tribunes as he
the people of this democratic country
must rely for their liberty and lives. Let
us try to appreciate the loss of such men
when they are taken away, and mourn
and honor them.
