SATURDAY, OCTOBER %, 1892.


Patrick Breslin, Of Summit Hill, who
was convicted of malicious mischief,
was given his liberty on furnishing bail
to appear at the next term of Court
and answer for his good behavior
Breslin was the prosecutor in a case
against James Patton, charging Patton
with threats. A similar sentence was
imposed upon Patton.
Commonwealth vs.. John Davis, sur
charge assault and battery, Mrs. Sarah
Jones, prosecutrix. The parties in
this case are from Summit Hill. When
it was called Davis was not present and
his bail was declared forfeited. His
bondsman afterwards appeared in
Court and had the forfeiture respited
until next term of Court, when he
promised to have Davis present.
The grand jury found true bill
against Ella Behler, of near Trachs-
vile, who is charged with concealing
the death of her child. The young
woman is not within the jurisdiction OF
the Court, hence the case is continued
to some future term.
The bill of indictment against Daniel
McGillaway, one of the young men
charged with breaking into A. L
Campbell's iewelry store in Lansford
last spring, was ignored by the granc
jury and McGillaway, who has been il
Jail ever since, was released from con
finement. A true bill was fount
against the other two members of thu
gang-Jonn McHugh and Franci
Gallagher. They skipped at the tint
and their present whereabouts are no
known.

The chief of the secret service divi-

that new counterfeit So silver certifi-
cate was put in circulation in Chicago
on the.11th instant He describes it
as follows ut has the new back and
is of the series of 1891, check letter c.;
Rosecrans Iegister; Nebeker treasurer.
The paper is fair, and is an imitation
of the new distinctive distributed fibre
paper used ly the government, the
fibre being initiated in blue and pink
ink by the use of pen. The face of
the note bears light impression,
which gives the numbering Though
good heavy appearance. The port
rait of Gen. Grant is poor, the nose
being broad and fiat. The lettering
with few exceptions is good, and the
small scallowed seal is excellent in
workmanship and color. The green on
the back of the note is very light and
has a blue tinge and the geometriC
lines are so untrue and indistinct that
a little scrutiny reveals the false char
acter of the note"

Am OPEN LETTER-

To THE Patrons or OUR PUBLIC SCHOOLS:
1--WE affirm our devotion TO the Public
School System of this Country. We
believe in compulsory education
One, and the fundamental plank in
the platform Of principles Of the Jr. o.
U. A. NJ, that outweighs all, everything
else, is the section Of our principles as
above quoted. Our country is the
grandest arena God ever prepared for
His children and the public school
system as established on the basis of
intelligence aud virtue is and always
will be the foundation of free people
and a happy and prosperous nation.
The free public schools practically con
troll the future of our country. The
growth and prosperity which has
characterized the first century of our
national existence is the admiration
of the world. For this the free public
schools have credit. For the future |
the watchword of the hour must be
EDUCATE All must be elevated with /
out regard to color or other circum /
stance. There must he no political or
religious feelings to dominate the good |
work. Virtue, Liberty and Patriotism
must be instilled into the minds and |
hearts of the pupils. On this depends |
the safety Of our nation and the hap. |
piness of future generations. tis not
enough simply to learn the lessons;
Virtue, Liberty and Patriotism must
be kept alive by instruction in the
deeds of valor and glory achieved
through the early struggles that made
us free country. Every victory won
by our nation has been victory for
our public schools, they have been the
nursery of patriots, soldier and states
man. They will live for ever because
free people appreciate them and
recognize the dependency of the nation
on an educated and patriotic consti-
tuencY. We have thus briefly referred
to the public school to draw the atten-
ton Of parents to the great necessity
of having their children attend our
public schools regularly and faithfully.
There is need of watchfulness here:
There is need for strict measures. Tie
many boys found running the streets
is threatening evil and it is the
parent who must look after them.
Their future depends on education
They should be kept in the public
school There should be no half
measure, father or mother who has a
paternal feeling for their offspring will
give them this necessary attention.
The Jr. o. U. A. NJ. are the guardians
of the public school and recognizing
the necessity of parents looking to
their children's interests more closely
is what prompts public reference to
this all important question. We pray
that the parents will awaken to the inn
portance of this brief reference and
give strict attention to having their
children attend school regularly
There is nothing further that we can
say, at least we 50 believe, for we feel
that every mother and every father
will be anxious to shape the future of
> their offspring by careful education
such as is Afforded by our public
sch OILS. Very TRULY,

The observance of mourning for the late
Duke OF Clarence by the Berlin court is fol-
loving a very fexible regulation. The EN-
peror has issued orders that tho wearing of
mourning shall be suspended during the
course Of the festivities in celebration OF his
birthday. which will be gwen on a scale hith-
erto uneSampled. If the respect to be paid
to the memory of the nephew of the En-
peror's mother is to be relaxed whenever it is
at all inconvenient to show it, the farce of
keeping II up even spasmodicalIy should be
stopped, leaving the Berlin court to resume
its unbroken round of gayeties 81 if the Duke
OF Clarence were still alive.

TIE experience which Madame Barrios, tho
widow of the late General Barrios, of Guate-
mala, had with a burglar in her palace on
Fifth avenue Thursday night, shows that the
possession of millions cannot raise an i'm
p~regnable guard against tho encroachments
of the New York robber, With a Waterman
patroling the street in front of the house and
the house itself fun of servants and members
Of the family, it IS surprising that entrance
could have been found TO it. Such an incl
dent, like the murder Of Mr.. Nathan in lis
residence in the shadow of the Fifth-Ayenue

to shake the sense Of security enjoyed by the
wealthiest citizens of New York in conse-
quence of the precautions taken by them 10

Dear Sir.-We see II stated that one OF the
Arguments used against the bill requiring

that a majority ~ the women of the State
do not favor this measure.
We believe this q he entirely a mistaken
idea. We arc convinced that a large majority
Of the intelligent. earnest-thinking women OF
this State arc heartily in favor of this reform
and anxious for It's passage. Witness the
large number of women who signed the peti-
ton 10 the Legislature asking for this change.
a number that would have been doubled and
trebled. except that such stress was laid upon
the importance OF having the signatures Of

who has been for many years connected with

are many. many reasons why this bill should
