PoTTsvTLLE, Nov. 16.--rhe thirty-second
annual SchuylkiH County Teachers In
stitute closed here to-day and next week
the teachers will be at their posts again
in their respective school house. The ses.
sions Of the institute just closed were of
most successful character. The lectures
and entertainments were of high order.
The experiment of holding the sessions
earlier in the season also proved salts
factory aud the plan will undoubtedly be
followed in the future. 1t prevents a de-
moralization OF the school work which
must follow when the institute and
| Christmas holiday seasons are close to-
gether. Most of the teachers favor the
new plan. They say they can make a
better showing for the close OF the first
school term.
| The business men of this town reaped a
| harvest during the institute. 1t was not
so much what the teachers spent, but
what was derived through their friends,
who attended the sessions in large mum
bers and occasionally spent an hour, or
two, in shopping. Then, again, the con-
vention of the School Directors of the
county brought many shekels to the cof
| fers of the hotels and restaurants.
| Manager Ferguson, of your town, would
be wise in booking "Prncess Bonnie" fol
his theatre this season if it is possible. 1t
had a crowded house at high prices here
1t is one of the latest and best comic operas
and had an unprecedented run in Phila
delphia this season and last.

KEEP YOUR EYE
ON THE SECOND
The Democratic Army Preparing For
Its Spring March.
HOW THE WARD WILL COUNT
The Victorious Party VIII Bag Two Seats
in the Borough COuncil--Many New
Residents in the Ward.

1t is not too early to begin discussing
spring politics. At least no, so for the
Republicans, as the Democrats are already
on the move and are showing along so
actively that one is forced to the conclu-
sion that there are some deep laid schemes
on hand.
The great trouble with the Repu blicans
OF the town is that they are too easy going.
They never seem to look beneath the sur
face, but think the opposite party is like
their own-idle, waiting for the election
season to arrive. When the time for
action does come these Republicans find
their party hOundering around for suit
able candidates and in their hurry to put
tickets in the field they do not observe
chat the Democrats are in their camp
helping to put up candidates that cannot
be elected. On the other hand the Demo.
Gratis are always organized and in touch
with each other They have a pretty fair
understanding week ks in advance as to the
kind of tickets will be nominated by
! their primaries and when the time comes
to make the nominations they also have
matters so arranged that no Republican
| influence can intervene.
To say that the Democrats are now
actually engaged in moving their chess
man in5o position for the Spring election
| may perhaps cause incredulous smiles in
and about the borders of their camp, but
there are few existing facts which take
some of the laugh out of the idea from a
| Republican standpoint. There appears to
be well regulated scheme on the part OF
the Democrats TO capture the Second ward
next spring. Almost every Democrat
in the town who is thinking of chang
ing his place of residence has his
eye on that ward, and it will not take an
army of them to bring about the desired
change. The list of Second ward Demo
cratic voters has been greatly increased
during the past two or three years anC
many more names will be added to il il
the near future. Let us become little
more definite and get an inside view OF
the ratio of increase. The three Murphy
brothers, saloonists, moved into the ward
but few weeks ago; ex-Chiet Burgess
Smith moved in this week; the three
Cleary brothers of VIM. Penn and the
four Calvin brothers of the First ward
are at the Threshold, if they do not get
in before this appears in print. There you
have bunch of eleven good, solid Demo
Gratis to help turn a Repu ublican majority
of less than fifty, and two Councilmer
are Co be elected in that ward next spring
one to succeed John f. Finney, who
moved to PottsviIle, the other to succeed
r. w. Stout, whose term will expire.
1t is none too soon for the Republican
to follow the example set by their Demo
cratic neighbors by starting to move il
spirit, if not bodily.

HURDLE RACING A FIXTURE
Island Track Not Suited for Events
Over the Jumps.
coNuNDRUN MEY HIS DEATH
Five Of the Entries in the Last Race Of the
Day Went Down and Ono Broke His Neck,
Dying on the Track-Favorites in Hard
Ltck-Results and Entries Elsewhere.

It WAS demonstrated in . most forcble man
ner yesterday that the Island track is not suited
to hurdle racing because of Its sharp turns
The last race on the card was at a mile and an
eighth over four hurdles There were seven
starters, and Conundrum fell at the first Jump
The boy McGruder had sense enough TO scram-
BILE to his feet and get out Of the way, but the
horse laid there dead, with his neck broken.
Early Dawn, while In the lead, bolted and
knocked down portion Of the inner fence
Jockey jackson was pretty badly shaken by his
fall, but was able to walk TO his quarters Cap
tain Manning and Brussels fell together, and the
boy Harrison, who had the mount on Captain
Manning, struck on his head, but was not even
stunned. L. Casey, the rider Of Brussels, es-
capped unhurt
There was a good crowd at the track and the
many accidents In the hurdle race caused any

at 100 to in the books Greenawsy's Jockey re.
mounted and got third money. just before
this race was started a severe windstorm struck
the track and enveoped the place In fog OF
sand. For time there was fear OF the grand
stand being blown over, but the fear was ground
less.
In the opening event Psyche and Imported
Jene were the only two horses played, the
former being the decided first choice at the
close The start was long delayed through the
bad acting of Jack Garrabrant, and after twenty
three minutes wasted the field was dispatched,
with Lento, Jene. and Senator the first to show.
Lento led TO the stretch, when Manlove shot lm-
ported Jene to the front, and the latter won well
in hand by length from Lento. with Psyche an
Indifferent third.
NJ Days Key West was heavily weighted In
the six furlongs, but at that sold even choice
with Traitor. The latter made the running
throughout, and won rather handily by n length
from Key West. The latter seemed to be CATCH
ing Traitor in the stretch, but DAILY rode a rather
weak finish on his horse. Tommy Brophy was
third
Manlove rode his third straight winner when
he brought Turco home first in the colt race,
citation, the favorite, swerving all over the
track in the stretch. Somage made all the rum
hing. but could do no better than finish third
keime was an overwhelming favorite for the
fourth race and was pulling up from Diavolo,
with Salisbury poor third. Diavolo stood
strong drive the entire length of the stretch.
The NTH race was for gentlemen riders and
turned out Il farce, Elphin wa king in winner by
twenty-five lengths.
