An account recently appeared in
our telegraph columns of the murder
OF a Mrs. Sloan by her husband,
John Sloan, at White Earth. John
Sloan was formerly Il resident OF
Little Falls and lived in the old red
house which used to stand just
above the Heroux houses on Second
street north. Sloan is a half breed
Chippewee and his wife was a suuaw
who used to be known here as Kate.
He is supposed to have murdered her
while drunk and when he got sober
buried the body to escape detection.
The officers were suspicious however,
and the body was exhumed. 1t
looks now as if Sloan will hang for
the crime

against Mr.. Whitaker. The protesting mem
bers are Messrs. Ogden, Beddall, Trezise,
Bachman, Gable and Davenport. The papers
setting forth the grounds of protest have
been drawn up under legal advice and are
as follows:
To the Honorable D. j. Waller, Jr Superin-
tendent Of Public Instruction, Harrisburg,
Pa
SIR We, the undersigned members of
the School Board, and citizens of the school
district of the borough of Shenandoah in the
county of Schuylkill and state of Pennsyl-
vania, feeling just pride in the excellence
of our schools and believing that their preser-
walton is a matter of great importance to the
community, respectfully set forth the fol.
lowing objections to the issuing; of COM
mission to NJ. P. Whitaker as borough super
intendent of schools, to which position he
was elected by the School Board of the dis
trict on Tuesday, May I'd, 1898, viz:
First. We believe the said NJ. p. Whitaker
is not duly qualified to discharge the duties OF
borough superintendent of schools to which
| office he was elected.
1NSOlihJ nc IVilAuOdJc utlu ny lllb SdlNl wi
P. Whitaker qualities him with one exception
to teach the common branches only.
Third, In addition to the branches
| enumerated in the certificate of the said M
P. Whitaker the directors of the said district
require that the following studies be pursued
viz: geometry, trigonometry, algebra,
chemistry, general history, civil government
latin, rhetoric, English literature botany
vocal music and drawing.
Fourth, We believe that the said NJ. P.
Whitaker is not qualified to teach or has ex-
perience to teach any of the additional
branches and is therefore not qualified or
competent to superintend instruction in the
same.
Fifth, The experience of the said NJ P.
Whitaker has been derived solely from labor
in schools of low grade and in subordinate
positions; he lacks administrative ability and
is weak as a disciplinarian; nor do we believe
that considering the additional fact that 43 of
the 45 teachers constituting our present
corps hold normal diplomas, thus outranking
him in the matter of certified qualifications,
he could command that degree of respect
requisite for efficiency in the position of
borough superintendent of the schools
We, therefore, respectfully urge you, on
behalf of ourselves and the said district to
make investigation in the manner provided
by law into the fitness and qualifications
possessed by the said M. P. Whitaker to
discharge the duties of borough superintend-
ent of schools in said district and withhold
the granting of commission if the above
objections be sustained

ANOTHER SCARE.
TImId People of the FIRST Ward Excited
Again,

Again,
Many residents of the First ward became
very much alarmed again last night. over the
condition of the Water = Company's dam.
They feared the heavy rain would cause a
disastrous pressure upon the breastwork of
the dam and many of them sought accom-
modations for the night with friends in other
parts Their alarm was not caused by shots
or other false warnings.
Unfortunately there are some residents Of
the ward who are so timid that no amount of
reasoning can assure them of their safety and
their continual nervousness works with bad
effect upon the less timid with the resu It that
if boy shouts on the street there is gen
| eral stampede.
There is no danger of the break at the dam
becoming worse than it is. The water COM
pany has twenty-five men employed night
and day digging bitches and making other
arrangements for draining the affected dam
and the one above it, so that workmen can
work at the damaged breastwork in safety
and repair it,
The water company officials give positive
assurance that there is no danger of flood

afternoon, the PASTOR Rev. M. S. Hughes
breaches his last sermon for the year. The
brilliant young minister closes his second years
work under the most favorable circumstances.
The church is now in a very fourishing condi-

into the church during the year, including those
received upon probation. The Sunday school
numbers between nine and ten hundred The
attendance upon the preaching services has
constantly increased until at the present time
the commodious church is altogether too small
to accommodate the multitude who assemble to
listen to the eloquent young divine. Mr., Hughes
has not only greatly endeared himself to his
own people, but to very large circle of friends
in this city and state. The outlook for the fu-
ture, il Mr.. Hughes is returned to Chestnut
