IN HAWAII. The New Government Is
 Running Smooth. DeIuded Natives Hope
 for Restoration, But Their Leaders Know That Queen Lii Is a Back Number. RoyalIsts in Hope of Improving Their Fortunes Are Beginning
 to Advocate Annexation.

By the Associated Pr rsss.
 SAN FRANCISCO, July 28.-The steam ship Australia arrived this morning, six and one-half days from Honolulu, bringing Hawaiian advlces to July 21. Peace prevails throughout Hawaii and the new government appears to be fully established.
 The jury system under the new con. stitution is causing some trouble in the country districts. The constitution re- quires all jurors to take an oath of al. legiance to the new republic and to abjure all help in restoring the mon. archy in any form. In one country district It has been impossible to gel enough jurors to serve, Honolulu royal. ists having sent out circular stating that no answer had yet been received as to President Cleveland's intended action and warning the natives to keer out of politics, to take no oath of ale glance.
 lItCh GllC uuObU oIoOAb AOfd llbb5, AO W ever, have little hope that the com. mission recently sent to Washington will be able to accomplish anything ID Queen Liluokalani's behalf.
 One evidence of the public faith in the new government was shown just before the steamer sailed. Ten thous- and dollars of government bonds that previous to the adoption of the new constitution had gone begging at 9e were easily disposed of at par.
 The Hawaiian Star of July IA con- tains report that Judge H. A.. Wide man, Samuel Parker, John A. Cum. mins and Major Seward, who recently left this city for Washington, are to lay before President Cleveland petition for the annexation of the Hawaiian Islands to the United States. The peti tion is said to be signed by many na tives and other royalists, who have reached the conclusion that there is nc hope of restoration of the throne and who seek an improvement in theil political condition through annexation to the United States.

COUNTY SCHOOLS.
Annual Report of Superintendent
 Jordon.

Annual Report of Superintendent
 Jordon.
 County superintendent Jordon has completed his annual report of the schools to territorial superintendent Netherton. From the statistical DOT tion the following figures are taken:
 Number of teachers in the county, 97 Mum Der of school districts in county. AZ Children between the ages and 1S... 3,796 Amount paid teachers ......,........ $34 3S9 16 Total current expenses. .-............. 43,S5S S6 Cash received Ter. and Go, tax ........ 45.197 50 Cash received, subscriptions. .......... 4S9 07 expenditures .......-..... 45,6o4 72 Total valuation of property .16s.O9S co
 Judge Jordon adds to the report many valuable suggestions concerning the needs of the schools and the need of improvement in the laws governing them. On this subject he says:
 1T feel it my duty to again revert to the ineficiency of our public school laws; the entire system needs careful revision. The present system of en- ploying school district census marshals is especially objectionable. The county should be divided into census marshal districts, say four (4) for counties of the first class and the county superintend- ent granted authority to appoint cen sus marshal for said districts, said mar. shal to be assigned to duty in districts, other than the one in which he lives.
 ''On or before the 10th day of June of each year they should meet at the county superintendent's office, compare their work and submit the results. At present districts having sixty-fou. children of scholastic age draw $500 oi the school fund, sixty-fve would entitle it to $l ,000. the temptation to go over into other districts to obtain the neces. sary number to draw $1 ,000 or to report children under or over school age is toe great for the average census marshal ol school trustee. This year 1 have had te retake many districts and no doubt many others would be found inaccurate if looked into. A system of this kinC would result in absolute accuracy anG save to the school fund not Jess thar $75O per annual"

Patrick Boyle, one of the oldest resi-
dents of town, died at 7.30 O'Clock last
evening at his home on Main street
above Ridge. He was sick for the past
few weeks, but his death was due more

emigrated to the United States in 1916,
settling at Summit Hill. Shortly after

was a resident of Freeland.

sons and several grandchildren. The

mated for general foreman, the place
now held by Bishop, and the latter was
elected. Secretary-Treasurer Hayes was
elected, although there was some opposi-
ton. The expense of delegates to the
convention, amounting to about 49, 800,
were ordered paid.
The miners delegation from Indiana,
Ohio and Pennsylvania were unseated,
despite their claims that they represent
ed many thousands of Knights. The
miners propose to report back to their
organizations, recommending secession.
The miuers are friendly to Powderly.
Some of his friends, familiar with the
master workman's plans, say that they
will file an injunction restraining the
officers from continuing to control the
property of the knights of Labor. A
serious split seems imminent in the
order

Andrew Zuka, aged 81 years, of Haz-
Teton, who was taken to Wilkes Barre
Jail about two weeks ago for trying to
murder his wife, committed suicide by
hanging in his cell on Sunday morning.
Since his incarceration he has been
very respondent and was evidently
broodng over his terrible crime A
close watch was kept oyer him, as he had
attempted suicide on the day of his cap
ture, and it was feared he might try it
again.
About midnight Watchman Fallon Wis
tied the cell; then he walked around the
corridor and was absent about fifteen
minutes. When he returned he heard
groans from Zuka's cell, and found the
fellow hanging from the top bar OF the
door. He was cut down alive, but died
in few minutes.

All Deny the Report.

The announcement of the cut in coal
rates by Coke Bros. & Co. in Philadel-
phia and New York seems to have been
erroneous, or else premature. At the
offices of the Coke Bros in the cities it
was denied that a circular had been
issued to the trade making the cut. 1t
could not be learned that Coke Bros.
contemplated reducing the price. Stick
ney & Conyngham, sale agents for the
Pennsylvania Railroad Company, also
deny that they directed their agents to
cut coal to the price supposed to have
been cut to by Coke Bros, but stated
they had ordered such cut to be met if
it should be made.
At the Reading and Lehigh Valley
offices the only information that could
be obtained relative to the threatened
coal war was that both companies would
take care of their trade which probably
is equivalent to saying that any cut in
coal prices would be met.

Another Mine on Fire.

Colliery No. II, of the Lehigh Coal
and Navigation Company, at Coaldale,
caught fire early on Tuesday morning
and the flames are now beyond control.
All the miners who were in at the time
got out safely. The company is prepar-
ing to flood the mine, as all other meas
ures to extinguish it have proved futile.
This will mean great loss to the com
pany, as it will be weeks before it will
be able TO resume.
The coliery is one of the largest and
most profitable owned by the compeny
and gives employment to over 400 men
and boys. The fire is supposed to have
started in the pump house, but its origin
is mystery.
Later-The fire was extinguished yes
terday, and work will be resumed soon.
