Teachers Institute Ended,

The twenty-seventh annual institute
of the Luzerne county teachers ended at
Wilkes-Barre on Friday. The COM
mittee on resolutions presented report
recommending to the superintendent
the appointment of five teachers to be
known as the legislative committee,
whose business it shall be to attend to
such legislation as may promote the
educational welfare of the common
wealth. We recommend that Arbor
Day be more generally observed by the
schools of Luzerne in the future. In
the name of the pupils, parents and
teachers of the county we extend thanks
to the legislature of the state for the
free text book law and liberal appropria-
tions for the purchase of books and
school apparatus. We recommend to the
legislature the enactment of such law
as will make the teachers position more
secure"
The following were selected by the
institute as the committee on teachers
permanent certificates: D. M. Hobbies,
Miss Ella McGann, F. j. Regan, d. A.
Davis and j. 0. Herman Edwards.
On the place to hold the next institute
heated discussion ensued. 1t was fin
ally resolved to submit the matter to
Superintendent Harrison and the execu-
tive committee. The lower end teachers
want the institute held in Hazleton,
while the others want it in Wilkes Barre
and some in Pttston.

Full Time Decided Upon for November.

run Lime Decided upon Tor November
The regular monthly meeting of the
anthracite coal operators was held at
New York on Thursday. The meeting
was attended with unusual interest be-
cause it was expected that the operators
would fail to agree and that general
breakup of the coal prices would ensue.
This expectation, however, was not
realized. At the conclusion of the meet
ing the parties who attended were unani-
nous in their expressions of satisfaction
with the nature of the business trans
acted. 1t was the general opinion that
the coal market would improve in a
most profitable manner at an early day.
1t was agreed at the meeting that prices
be increased 25 cents on all regular
grade of coal and Is cents on broken
coal. This makes the new price of stove
coal $4 ton, egg and chestnut 1915 and
broken $500.
The report that the Delaware, Lacka-
wanna and Western Railroad Company
had withdrawn from the operators COM
bination was denied. The following
companies were represented: Philadel-
phia and Reading, Delaware, ,Lackawanna
and Western, Delaware and Hudson,
Pennsylvania Coal Company, Jersey
Central, Lehigh Valley and Coke Bros.
1t was also decided to mine during
November to the full capacity of the
companies without restriction, decision
that will receive the appreciation of
every miner in the anthracite region.

George Miscerwich, aged 3S years,
was instantly killed on Friday evening
at about 6 o'clock in the Harry E. col
liery at Wyoming. He attempted to
board the cage while it was in motion
and missed his footing, falling 200 feet.
One leg was cut off and his head was
horribly crushed. He was unmarried.
Earlier in the day, Hugh Smiley, a
miner at Nanticoke, with another man
were on the cage going up the shaft
when Smiley in walking across tripped
and fell so that his head went over the
edge of the carriage and before he could
recover himself it had been dashed to
pieces against projecting beam. The
two men were going up the shaft to get
a stretcher to carry out Polander
whose back had been broken by fall

How Four Crows Got a Meal.

In garden a dog was eating piece
of meat, in the presence of four cove
tous crows. They evidently said q
great deal to one another on the sub
ject, and now and then one of them
tried to pull the meat away from the
dog, which he naturally resented. AT
last a big, strong crow succeeded in
tearing off a piece, with which he re-
turned to the tree where the others
were congregated. A long pow-wow
now ensued, which ended in all four
crows flying down to the dog, the lead
ing crow dexterously dropping the
small piece of meat within reach of his
mouth. The dog Immediately snapped
at it, unwisely letting go the big piece,
which was seized by two crows and
carried to the tree, where it was de-
voured with much fluttering and hi
larity, while the cheated dog walked
away with every appearance of dis
comfiture,

There is much excitement among the
the farmers of the upper end of this
county over the discovery of the fact
that oil in paying quantities has been
discovered in the vicinity. For months
past the Eastern Pennsylvania Oil Com
pany has been buying up land on the
quiet, on which they will sink wells at
once.
E. G. Rosenzi, an oil veteran, is in
charge of the work, and it has just leak
ed out that he has been on the ground
prospecting for over year. His theory
was that oil must be lying in quantities
near the coal fields, and this theory has
now been realized. 1t is said that the
oil belt entends from Brooklyn, Susque-
hanna county, to the northern part of
Schuylkill county.
The Standard Oil Company is also
said to be in the field, and has purchased
large tracts of land in Schuylkill county,
but so far as known none in Luzerne
county,.

A naturalist tells of droll exhibit
ton of fun evinced by mocking bird.
II had only recently been captured, and
was placed near another cage in which
were two canaries, both excellent sing
ers. The mocking bird at first seemed
to be struck dumb by his voluble neigh
bors, but, as it turned out afterward,
he was only biding his time. For sew
eral days he remained silent, taking
notes, until he had mastered their song,
when one day, without even prelimi-
nary rehearsal, he burst out into a
canary song in a loud, ringing tone
that struck his Yellow-throated neigh
bors mute with astonishment. After
this it was favorite amusement of his
to drown the voices of the canaries with
his own loud notes whenever they at
tempted to sing.

Had an Arm Torn Out,

While at work in the Oneida breaker
last week. Michael Gimbo, aged % years,
met with horrible accident which re.
suited in his death. He was engaged in
feeding coal into the rollers. In some
manner he missed his footing and fell
headforemost toward the huge iron coal
crushers.
The requirements of the law are en-,
forced there and the rollers are boxed
Despite this fact the unfortunate man.
in trying to save himself, missed his
grasp and his arm was caught in the
grinding teeth. Before the rollers could
be stopped that member was dragged
from his body. Blood rushed from the
tornout shoulder so quickly that he died
in short while.

fully five seconds, but again came to
time and fought out the sixth round,
winning the stakes.
