The Scholars Word Competition. which
is now in progress, affords the young PEG
pie an excellent opportunity to make
some money and at the same time study
the English language. The cash prizes,
OF which there are seven-the first being
fifty dollars and the rest ranging from
twenty dollars to five dolIars-have been
deposited for the prize winners with
General Felix Agnus. the publisher Of the
Baltimore American. All parents having
bright, clever children, and the parents of
this city have no other kind, should
stimulate the young folks to work hard
for one of the prizes, which being cash
can be applied to many useful purposes.

SAYS HE IS CRAZY.
Tarantino Wants a Divorce and
Wants HIS Children.


S. TarantinO, a laborer residing at No.
2O7 West Market street, says his wife,
Emily, has been cruel and abusive towards
him for the past two or three years and
he wants div rec. They were married
on June II, 1876, at Bryan, Texas, and
have five children, all living as follows:
Angela, a girl, aged fourteen years; Joe,
a boy, ten years of age; Emily, a girl of
eight years OF age; Lilly. girl two years
old and one child married.
TarantinO says that his wife took the
children to New Orleans on May 81. 1898,
and kept them away from him, and that
he was uneasy of their safety. and was
compelled to spend considerable money
and time to learn of their whereabouts.
He further states that prior to the time
that the children were taken to New Or
leans he had saved $3.50 IN The San AntO-
MO National bank, and thai his wife
drew the money and spent IL all on the
trip without his know ledge or consent.
He says his wife will not allow him to
come home and tells every body she will
never live with him again; that she says he
is crazy because he is devout
christian and prays at home TO lead his
children in the right path, and TO teach
them to be followers and believers in the
true Christian religion. He says his viii
laughs and SCOTS at him for reading the
Bible and tells the children that he IS
crazy on the subject of religion. He
wants the custody Of the children.

A GOOD TEST
That Effectually Shows the Lights
Power as an Advertising Medium.

A short time since a LIGHT reporter
made mention of tts fact that two moth
erleSs children needed a home and urged
the citizens to take care of them. This
was done al the request Of well known
citizen. who met the reporter yesterday
and said: Il always thought the LIGHT
was a dandy paper for advertising, now
know it. You remem Der that little item
you put in for those two little girls that
wanted home Well, got over twenty
repl es. Most of them were from the city
but there were some from the surround
ing towns and villages, AMI one reply
came from Dallas. This was creditable
to the kindly hearts of your readers. Now
| have not time to reply to these letters,
but wish you would say that relatives
have agreed to take the girls, and the
matter is thus settled, but we all apDre-
ciate the kindness of those who were will
ing to adopt them care for them, and
train them to healthy wOmanhOOd."

The School Question.

One Of the crying needs of this bor-
ough is better school accommodations
which is we'll known TO all our citizens.
For a number OF years the scholars of
this town have been crowded into eight
rooms in the public school building, to
the Inconvenience Of the scholars and
disadvantage Of the teachers. In the
primary department half the scholars
attended school in the forenoon and re-
mained at home in the afternoon while
the other half filled the school room
in the afternoon. This year four rooms
were rented on the second floor OF the
Reynolds block and fitted up to accom-
modate the smaller scholars. Even
with this additional room the schools
are well filed.
In June, 1892, a special election was
held to bond the borough TO the amount
OF $4,000 to provide school room for
the pupils of this place. The Taxpayers
voted for the bond-issuing but there was
dissatisfaction arose as TO whether the
school board should erect one or two
school buildings. The school board
was in favor of putting up two school
buildings, and a number of citizens who
were in favor of one building served an
injunction on the board, and the case
has since been in the hands of a Master
and Examiner and the Honorable Court
until October goth, 1894, when Judge
Clark filed an opinion and decree in the
case. Which is TO the effect that the
election of June 25th, 1892, is illegal
and void, and that the said school dis
trict of the borough of Reynoldsville
pay all the costs OF the proceedings, in
cluding the fees Of the Master and Ex-
aminer. The costs in the case will
amount to about $4,000 The borough
of Reynoldsville is now back to where it
was before the special election of 1892,
so far as school buildings are concerned.
The only thing to do now is to hold
another election to bond the borough
for the purpose of erecting sufficient
school room to accommodate the pupils
of this borough. 1t is to be hoped that
no malice or i'll feelings will interfere
with the erection of school room, and
that as soon AS it is possible to do so a
new building will be erected. The
Reynolds block will answer in an emer-
gency, but it is not a very good place to
send the children, especially in the two
rooms on the east side of the building
where the scholars get light only from
windows in one end of the rooms.

Thrilling Experience.

A few weeks ago we mentioned that
Robt j. Thomas, the barber, and Sam.
Williams, better known as the "Jndian,"
had gone to the wilds of Medix Run on
hunting expedition. The twain re-
turned home Friday and brought two
deer and big black bear weighing 800
pounds, home with them. "Indian" had
thrilling experience with bruin. On
Monday the bear was tracked into a
hole between two large rocks. "Indian"
sent "Bobby" on top of the rocks with a
long pole to disturb bruin so he would
vacate the place, and the "Indian"
crawled into the hole some distance
and, with gun in hand, waited for the
bear to come out. Robt. and the long
pole soon persuaded the bear to move
out. The "Indian" says when the bear
saw him it stopped to size up the situa-
tion for few minutes, and then, froth-
ing at the mouth and growing furious
ly, it advanced towards the man lying
in its pathway. About that time the
case was as interesting to the Indian"
as it was to bruin, and as escape was
then impossible for the "Indian" he had
to face the savage beast of the forest.
The situation meant death to either the
man or bear. When the bear was with
in six feet of Indian" he took deliber-
ate aim and planted piece of cold lead
in tender place in the bears head and
thus won the victory. The story might
read differently had the hunter missed
his mark.
The hunters say that a farmer who
lives within few miles of where the
bear was killed, informed them that
during the summer the bear carried off
seventeen Of his sheep. One time he
saw the bear going to the woods with a
large sheep in its mouth. AS the bear
was very fat it is evident that it had
not been roaming the forest hungry
during the summer.
