NEWARK, July fiat a meeting of
the public school commissioners. held
Monday night, the following teachers
were unanimously elected for the ensu-
ing year: Principal, A. Lee Ellis of
Millsboro, Sussex county,a and graduate
of Delaware College in the class Of '93.
Mr.. Ellis has been teaching with marked
success as principal at Millsboro; first
assistant, Miss Z. Fanny Medill, to take
the place of Miss Fanny M. Briscoes

Miss Emma Choate; fourth, Miss Sallie

same amounts as last year.
A rather we1l-dressed old woman,
who afterwards gave her name as Fanny
Alexander of Philadelphia, walked into
the postoffice at Ogletown Monday
afternoon, and asked the postmistress,
Mrs. Ethridge, for William Bryan's
mail. Mrs. Ethridgo handed her out
two letters and paper. In short
time after that Mr.. Bryan's little son
came in the postoflice and asked for his
fathers mail, and after a few questions
it developed that the old woman was a
fraud. Some one had seen her going
toward Wilmington and Mr.. Ethridge
followed on horseback. He came up
with her about two miles on the way
and brought her back to Newark before
Squire Dean. She denied having taken
the mail and as no letters could be found
on her person, she was discharged. She
had money, however, and bought a
ticket to Philadelphia.
Benjamin Campbell hired a man
named Boyles and Alfred Watson, both
colorcd, team last Sunday afternoon,
about O'Clock. They drove to Middle
town and reached there at o'clock. On
their way home the horse died. Mr..
Campbell brought action before Squire
Dean yesterday for misdemeanor. The
case was continued until to-day and the
men locked up for the night. This morn
ing the case came up again and Squire
Dean held Boyles and Watson for the
court of general sessions, fixing the bail
at 800. For the sake of horses as we'll

they can not drive hired horse to death

MILLS sHUT OWN.

Trouble la Appleton, Wis.,, on Account
OF the Fox River Water Power.
Associated Press DlspA5;n by Special Wires
APPLETON, WIS, July 17.--In con-
sequence of the order from the Secre-
tary Of War, forbidding the use of any
water from Fox river for power pur-
poses, all the mills in Fox Valley, about
80 in number, are shut down with the
exception Of less than half a dozen,
which have steam power.
At Appleton every mill is shut down
and the situation is further complicated
by the fact that if the order is strictly
enforced there will be no electric SER
vice, no street lights, and possibly no
light for private consumers who take
light from the Edison Co., until they
can substitute steam for water power.
In the meantime many hundreds will
be out OF employment and many thou.
sand dollars of profits will be lost by the
manufacturers.

Some Small Concerns Giving in, but tho
Large Manufacturers Holding Out De-

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, July 12.-The
most important development to-day in
connection with the weayer's strike was
the fact that the employees of H. Mails
land 81 Sons, Amber street and ALLIE
gheny avenue, numbering about 800,
went out. The situation as far as the
weavers are concerned, is unchanged,
but there is said to be tendency ON the
part of some of the small manufacturers
to give the increase that has been asked
by the strikers.
The large manufacturers, including
WINS, Deitz & Metzger, Philip DoerI
Sens, John Gay Sons, Thomas Develon
and others, say positively that they will
not agree to the union scale. All agree
in one statement, and that is that they
will close their mills before they will
grant the increase demanded by theii
former employees.
On the other hand, the proprietors Of
the small factories seem to have ten.
dency to give in, and for this reason the
strikers to-day appeared to be more con-
tident of success.
It is said that five firms employing
$50 wesvers have agreed to sign the
union schedule, if other firms will fol.
low suit. The strikers were confident
that if the smaller manufacturers agreed
to pay the scale the big concerns would
have to come in.
The manufacturers were confident to-
day, however, that the employees will
return to work within short time, per-
haps within week.
PROPOSITION REJECTED.
At meeting Of more than 1900 strilt-
ing ingram carpet weayers Tuesday il
was reported that only seven voted in
favor of accepting the offer of the
manufacturers to increase wages on
December LIST, and notification of the
rejection was sent to the manufacturers

firms, it was stated, agreed to pay the
