School Board Mo citing.

Directors Mccarthy, Ferry, Welsh and
Timony were the only members present
at the school board meeting on Thurs
day evening. There was considerable
business to be transacted, but the board
failed to dispose of any of the work
before it. The selection of seats for the
new building on Ridge street caused
disagreement which prevented action in
the matter. A vote on the question Of
OF single or double seats resulted 3 to
in favor Of the former, Messrs. Ferry,
Welsh and Timony favoring the single
while Mr.. Mccarthy voted for the double
seats. The president decided that the
vote taken did not settle the question,
and an adjournment was agreed to until
tomorrow evening. Half a dozen agents
from as many desk manufacturers
were present to enlighten the board upon
the merits of the school furniture which
they carried.
The proposals for painting and heating
the building were not acted upon, neither
was any of the routine business trans

1t is said that the efforts of the ind-
vidual coal operators to bring about
settlement of the difficulties between the
carrying companies have thus far met
with no encouragement. They have
visited President Harris and the execu-
tive heads of several other roads, and
while treated with the utmost courtesy,
they have failed to accomplish the de-
sired end, and the situation is exactly as
it stood four months ago. Business in
all other sections of the county in i'm
proving and trade is better than at any
time for two years past. The settlement
of the anthracite troubles would give the
people of the coal region an opportunity
to take part in the business revival, and
the inability of the various interests to
arrive at an understanding is deplored.

National Temperance Convention.

The national convention of the Catho-
lie Total Abstinence Union of America
was held in New York city last week.
The sessions were very interesting to
temperance people. The union now has
membership of over $4,000. Father
Cleary, of Minneapolis, was reelected
president, and j. Washington Logue, of
Philadelphia, was reelected first vice
president. James f. Brennan, of Mount
Carmel, Conn.,, was elected second vice
president, and Mrs. Lenora Lake, of st.
Louis, third vice president. Rev. Father
William Mcmahon, of Cleveland, o.,
who has been treasurer for the past ten

Father Alex p. Doyle was reelected
general secretary. The next conven-
tion will meet at st. Louis on the first

men waived hearing and entered bail
in $500 each for their appearance at
court.
The prosecution say they have only
begun this crusade and have served
notice on number of others, including
many prominent citizens, members of
societies which have sold beer at picnics.
If they extend their suits againt all
parties who sold beer at parks in the
county during the year many societies
in the county will be implicated. A
fierce war of determination will also be
begun against the speak-easies in and
around the county seat, information
against which has already been lodged.
Following closely upon the arrests of
the Saengerbund managers came those
of the Star Social Club members on Sat
urday afternoon. John Burke, j. j.
Mackin, Henry Snyder, Geni Mccarthy
and Thomas Caffrey, all of Newton and
Ashley, were arrested and gave bail for
their appearance at court. The arrests
of all others connected with picnics at
which the beer was sold during the pres
ent season in Hanover park will be made
as soon as possible.

PLAYED A POOR GAME.
The Tigers and the Hamburg Club Gave
an Unsatisfactory Exhibition.

What can reasonably be said to be the
poorest game of the season, was that
| played yesterday afternoon by the III
| gers against the Hamburg club, of Berks
| county. The latter came with very
good record, but after taking the field
| for practice it was evident that they
were not in the Tigers class, and the
only thing wondered at was what kind
of clubs they had been playing to obtain
the record they have. No one doubted
that the Tigers would be able to walk
away with their opponents, and for the
first few innings they did it in apple pie
order. 1t required three innings for the
visitors to get bat around.
The Tigers were first at bat and fell
onto Johnson's delivery without any
difficulty from the start. Five runs
were scored on hits by Gillespie, Nc
Garvey, Gaffney, McFadden and Bris-
lin, and errors by Hartman and Owens.
In the second inning l run was scored
in the third and in the fourth were
made. The ease with which the Tigers

for the day, and when they took the
field in the third inning they appeared
somewhat careless and over-contident.
They were rudely awakened, however,
when Hartman opened the inning by
lighting on to Brislin for three-bagger,
followed by Shollenberger and Lielieke
with two-base hits and Williams with
triple. johnson was hit with pitched
ball and Burnhart given pass. After
this Brislin left the box and was replaced
by McFadden. Eight runs were made
in the inning and the score tied.
Rain interfered with the play for
several minutes at this stage of the
game. The Tigers in the fourth gave
them lead which was met again
promptly by the visitors.
The game then dragged along to the
finish without any particular features.
McGarvey's catch of Williams long fly
in the ninth was the only difficult play
made in the game.

Messrs, Meneeley, Barton, Richards and
Boyle, and was opposed by Messrs.
McHugh and Evans, who fought hard
for the retention of such of the former
teachers who had proven their ability
in the schools for several years past
Their efforts, however, were unavailing,
and the slate went through without
break. Among those appointed are non
residents with no previous experience in
teaching, who have been given schools
In preference to experienced resident
teachers. The selections throughout

Every teacher of the Catholic faith who
taught last year and applied on Satur-

UPPER LEHlGH NOTES.

On Friday morning passenger train
on the Central road struck a COW, break
ing one of its legs and crushing the
animal internally. The cow laid dying
near the track all day, and about 7
o'clock in the evening it expired. A
large crowd of Hungarians, who work
on the stripping here, made Jersey
splice and bought the cow for $40 from
the owner, John Frisko. They were
busy cleaning the animal all night. On
Saturday and Sunday they had fresh
meat three times each day, and at supper
last night the last bone of old ''Bossy''
was picked clean.
An exciting game of ball was won on
Saturday afternoon by the employees of
No. 5 coliery, who defeated the men of
No. 6. The score was 26 to 30. Three
hours were consumed in piling up the
runs. No. men want another chance.

Liquor LAW Violations.

A sensation was sprung on the people
who have picnics at Hanover and other
upper end parks of the county when
Louis Tisch, Jacob Miller and other
members of the Saengerbund Society, of
Wilkesbarre, were arrested, charged
with selling beer at their picnic at
Hanover Park, near Nanticoke, without
a license. Constable j. A. Wood swore
out the warrants as prosecutor, and it is
said that number of liquor dealers who
pay licenses and who are injured by the
wholesale violation of the liquor law are
at the back of the prosecution. The
