Male VS.. Female Teachers.

In the New England states, where
girls are credited with receiving the
most extensive education, the man
teacher is being rapidly supplanted.
In Massachusetts, only nine and a half
per cent of the teachers are men, In
New Hampshire the men number
nine and seven tenths per cent, and In
Maine, sixteen per cent. In the South,
where the whole system Of education
was reconstructed after the war, the
proportion of men is much larger, Ar
kansas leading with sixty-eight per
cent, while North Carolina has fifty-
six and eight tenths per cent, West
Virginia sixty-one and eight tenth per
cent and Texas fiity-eight per cent.
Illinois shows only twenty-eight and
seven tenths per cent of men teaehers'
while men teachers, nMichigan are but
twenty-one and five tenths per cent,
In Minnesota twenty-five aud six
tenths per cent, in Iowa nineteen per

Wheat Should BE Higher. .

Wheat Is selling in this state for
four cents less than the Liverpool
parity. That is to say, the price paid
the farmers Of eastern Washington,
plus the freight rates to Puget Sound,
plus a reasonable charge for commits
sion and other expenses, Is four cents
less than the price paid for the grain
In Liverpool.
In other words, the wheat growers
Of this section are paid four cents per
bushel less for their crop than they
ought to be getting.
The proof Of this statement lies In
the market quotations Of Portland and
San Francisco. At San Francisco on
Saturday No. ] shipping wheat was
quoted at 933 cents per GENITAL, or 56l
cents per bushel. On the same date
eastern Washington wheat was quoted
in the Portland market at 4ss cents
per bushel, difference OF n cents per
bushel.
But the California wheat brings two
cents per bushel more in Liverpool
than is brought by the Washington
wheat. Allowance for this differance
in the price therefore reduces the diff
ference between the Portland and San
Francisco markets to 81 cents.
Charters are higher, too, on the
northwest coast at San Francisco.
Well-in-formed grain dealers say a fair
average Of this difference IL q shillings
per ten, or less than II cents per
bushel. This, as a matter Of fact, is
the present difference between the
charters at San Francisco and Puget
Sound.
After an allowance is made for differ
ence In charters, there still remains
four cents per bushel. In other words,
the shipper In this state and Oregon
Is making four eents per bushel more
than is being made by the California
shipper.
In those times, when the cost of pro.
duction ia close to the upshot price Of
wheat in the open market, this loss OF
four cents per bushel becomes an
alarming leakage. If the farmers Of
this section could have their four cents
If they could obtain that which the
California dealers comedies to the Cali.
fornia growers 1t would 90 long
! way towards tightening their burdens,
Then, in addition 10 this four cents
| per bushel, II they could secure reas
enable reduction In freight rates an
other four cents would be added to the
credit side of their ledger, or total o.
eight cents per bushel.
This Is the difference between sue
cess and failure, between profit and
loss, between holding the farm ant
losing it under foreclosure, IN an ex-
port crop Of 100000 bushels it mean
$780, 900.
In the face Of these facts, who Cal
doubt that the farmers Of eastern
Washington have grieyance?-Spok

VIII Help to Get QUAY County.

The editors of the Shickshinny news
papers, Messrs. Tubbs and Beidelman,
who were the foremost and most active
advocates of the Grow county movement,
are not very well pleased at the decision
Of the state commissioners, in deciding
that the territory surveyed does not
show the necessary 400 square miles.
They concede, however, that the scheme
is dead beyond resurrection, and they
offer their services to the Quay county
people, not because they think any more
OF this section than they did before, but
to revenge themselves upon the Wilkes
barre tricksters who so cleverly played
them for farmers by inducing Shick-
shinnyites to go rainbow-chasing and
dreaming of court house in that town.
We feel sorry that our newspaper
friends should receive such a rude
awakening and have their new county
plans turned topsy-turvey, but it is all
for the best and in few years they will
realize that living in Quay county is far
better than either Luzerne or Grow.
The Quay people, also, should accept
the support of the second district news
papers in more friendly manner. The
votes Of our farming friends will count
when the new county election will be

Oil, not water, should be used when
you really want to clean your face.
Learn a lesson from the actresses II
an actress tried to wash with soap and
water her nightly makeup from her
face she would have no skin to speak Of
left In week, to say nothing about
complexion. She never makes any such
mistake. She removes her makeup with
oil, usually and preferably cocoa oil.
And she learns by experience to do the
same thing when she wants to get rid
of the CRIME Of travel Oil cleans the
skin more thoroughly than soap and
water, as you can thoroughly demon
strate after journey or any such soil
ing experience. II you don't mind the
abuse of your skin for once, just wash
your face after the old fashion, as we'll
as you can; then cover It with oil and
remove the oil with soft cloth. One
look at the cloth will prove that the
soap and water did not get It clean

Hosting Rope Parted.

An accident occurred on Friday at
the Archingloss shaft, Nanticoke. The
engine became unmanageable while a
cage was being hoisted. The cage shot
past the landing on top and ran up
against the shive wheel, where the
cable parted from it's fastenings. The
cage dashed down the shaft, several
hundred feet deep, crashing from side
to side, and leaving destruction in its
wake. About fifteen feet from the bot
tom a gang of men were timbering the
shaft. Not hearing the cage coming
the men were caught as in wise, and
it is wonderful all were not killed in
stantly. William Cross, foreman of the
gang, had both arms lacerated and his
back injured, and Louis Coklofnski,
Pole, had his arm torn off. Both are in
danger of dying. Luckily there were
no men on the cage or there would be
large list of fatalities.

Weatherly's Electric Light Plant.

From the annual statement of Wealth
erly borongh's finances, as published In
the Herald 1t is learned that the rum
ming expenses of Its electric light plant
for the year ending March l last, were
$4,016.s5. This includes labor, lamps,
fuel, repairs, stationery and everything
else connected with the running, except
ing interest. The receipts were as fol-
lows: For five arc lights in the Lehigh
Valley yards, $425; for incandescent
lighting, $1,000, and for lamps, wiring,
ETC., S242; total, 1906. This leaves the
cost of street lighting S65O.s5, to which,
however, should be added 81 900 for in
terest on the $4,000 plant, making the
total cost of street lighting 81, ,65O.s s5, or
about S51 per annum for each of the
thirty-two street lamps now in use.

other men, got on the cage at the foot
Of the shaft. When the cage had as
cended about fifty feet it struck against

and precipitating him to the bottom.
He fell on James Harkens, who was
standing at the foot of the shaft, and
fractured the latter's collar-bone.

PROHIBITION CONVENTION.
Luzerne's Cold Water Men Nominated
Their Ticket on Saturday.

There was very lively time at Will
kesbarre on Saturday at the annual con-
venton of the Prohibtionists OF this
county. Rev. ]. C. Hogan, of Forest
City, made violent attack on ministers
who refused to aid the cause of temper
ance and was vigorously contradicted
during most exciting scene. Speaking
of the want of interest manifested in the
non-support of prohibition papers, Mr..
Hogan said he believed the trouble was
with the publishers. What the people
waat is paper covering all the news
and not confined to the narrow limits of
one particular subject. The following
'There is no priest or preacher in the
state of Pennsylvania who is by any
method doing anything to arouse public
sentiment against the liquor traffic"
Mr.. Hogan qualified this by saying there
were hundreds of noble men who were
doing local work in their own parish
or charge, but it was not general.
Rev. w. II. Hitler, of Parsons, arose
to say that he could not by his silence
give assent to the statement He knew
of ministers who were doing all they
could to arouse public sentiment against
intemperance. He could not sit silent
and listen to such sweeping statement.
The resolutions adopted were vigor-
Gus. These demanded of state the dis
solution of the "hell born" partnership
existing between her and the liquor
manufacturers and dispensers and the
entire liquor traffic.
The following ticket was nominated:
For sheriff, Edward Lameroux, jackson
township; for recorder, Professor A. ].
Dewey, Wanamie; for coroner, DIR. L.
M. johnson, West Pittston; delegates to
state convention at Pttsburg June 6,
George A. Pehle, Wanamie; e. S. Emo

DIR. GILLESPIE'S DEATH.
A Prominent Physician of Avoca Sue
cumbs to Blood Poisoning.

DIR. Peter G. Gillespie, prominent
practicing physician of Avoca, died on
Friday morning of anaemia or blood
poisoning after an illness of three days
duration. Several days ago DR.. Gillespie
performed an operation on patient in
Avoca, and in adjusting the bandage
slightly pricked the skin of his forefinger,
but he paid no attention to 1t. AS after
ward developed, the scratch made by
the pin came in contact with pus from
the wound, and blood poisoning set in
and rapidly inoculated the whole system.
Drs. Seamans and Berger were called
to attend him, but they were unable to
check the poison, and DR.. Kirwin, Of
Wilkesbarre, was summoned in consul
tation. The doctors did everything that
medical skill could suggest, but their
efforts were unavailing.
The deceased was promising physi-
clan and wellknown in the county.
During Coroner Piers term of Office, DR..
Gillespie served as deputy and gave
entire satisfaction. At the Democratic
convention three years ago this summer,
at which a coroner was nominated DIR.
Gillespie was candidate and defeated
solely on account of geographical loca-
tion. In his habits deceased was exem-
plary in every respect and was general
favorite with all who knew him.
DR.. Gillespie is survived by little
girl, aged years, his mother, brother
William, an attorney at the Luzerne bar,
sisters Agnes, teacher in Plymouth
township, and Genevieve, at home. The
funeral takes place at Avoca this morn
