Nothing Wrecks the Constitution

More effectually than fever and
ague. That nerve destroying mall
ady, when once it takes firm root,
subverts every function, exhausts
the physical energies, impOverishes
the blood and clouds the mental
faculties. No effectual resistance
can be offered to its destructive ca
reer by the use of the pernicious
drug, quinine. Hostetters Stom-
ach Bitters will, however, be found
all sufficient either for its eradica-
tion or prevention. Those condi-
tions of the system, such as a bill
ious, constipated habit, or lack of
vitality, which are favorable to the
contraction of the disease are
speedily reformed by this pure and
efficient Alternative and invigorant,
which not only regulates the sys-
TEN, but gives a healthful impulse

KNOCK OUT BLOW KILLED HIM.
Fatal End Of Prize Fight for the Sum Of $40

Richard Ingram, a shoemaker of
Haverhill, Mass, died two hours after
being knocked out in a prize fight on
Saturday night by another shoemaker
named Arthur w. Bradley. The fight
took place in a barn in South Law
renee. 1t was for $40 a side. The
two young men were friends, and
worked in Chicks factory. They had
been taking boxing lessons, and dis
pute as to their ability resulted in the
match. Lightweight gloves were
used, and , ere were thirteen specta-
tors present when time was called.
The first round was hardly begun,
when both men showed i'll feeling.
Slugging was the result. Bradley
seemed to get the worst of the fight,
and after the first round was repeated.

was closed. Before time was called
for the sixth round Bradley's face was
badly cut. But he fought on, occA-
sionally getting in chance blow.
When the seventh round opened
Bradley seemed a little fresher, and
was evidently acting on the defensive.
Ingram was full of confidence, and
anxious to put an end to the fight.
In rush he was met full on the jaw.
The blow was full swing with right
arm, and when it landed Ingram tell
limp. He was counted out and his
seconds began unlacing his gloves.

and said
"Hold on. What are you doing
that for?'
He Immediately relapsed into un.
consciousness, and was hustled into ;
carriage and taken to his brothers
house in the city, where he died before
medical aid could be summoned.
Early on Sunday the police heard o
the fight, and before II o'clock sever

According to competent authority
the average rainfall in this part of the
State of Pennsylvania is about forty
three inches annually. That gives us
a good many rainy days, more than
we sometimes want to see but, be-
ing pretty evenly distributed during
the season when it is most needed,
gives our State the excellent crops
that are her pride and boast. But
what would we think if half that
amount of rain fell in a single month?
That is what occurs in certain parts
of Oregon. In some parts of that
State the precipitation during January
of the present year was I84 inches,
and in Tillamooth county it was nine
feet for the entire year, an average of
nine inches per month. This great
rainfall prevails only along the coast.
East Of the coast range of mountains
it is much less. But even the nine
inches per month are much exceeded
in Central America, In Nicaragua
it is far greater. AT Greytown it has
averaged a67 inches during the past
three years, or more than twenty-five
inches per month.

SCHOOL TEACHERS RIG hts.
Not Compelled 10 Undergo Examination
on Branches in Which They Have
Qualified

Hon. John Q. Stewart, Deputy
Superintendent OF Public Instruction,
has given an opinion in an important
matter that interests the teachers of
the State. The McKeesport Direc-
tors at recent meeting adopted
motion to the effect "that all
teachers be required to undergo an
examination regardless of their Nor
NAL School diplomas, or permanent
professional certificates The ques.
ton was referred to the Department
of Public Instruction as to whether
the Board had right to adopt such
a rule. Mr.. Stewart gave the opinion
OF the Department as follows:
"School Directors cannot consist
emily require Superintendent to
examine teachers who hold valid GER
tifcates or other legal credentials
qualifying them to teach in the dis
trict where they are to be employed.
No Board of Directors is justified by
law in the enforcement of a rule, such
as is proposed by your mittee,
subjecting the holders Of State certi-
fcates or valid professional certificates
to examination. Graduates of State
Normal Schools hold Normal School
certificate or diploma, lawfully grant
ed to them by the State Board Ex-
aminers, which certificate or diploma
exempts the holder from further ex-
animation in any of the branches
named thereon.
"The holder Of a permanent certi-
fcate has legal credential granted
by the State Superintendent of Public
Instruction, which certificate is valid
in the county in which it was granted
without a re-examination, and is also
valid in any other county for full
annual terms teaching, after which it
may be officially endorsed by the
Superintendent having official juris-
diclion therein, and thereafter ex-
emp,s the holder from examination
in that county the same as in the
county in which it was originally
granted.
"The holder of professional GER
tifcate is exempt from examination
under existing laws in the branches
named on the certificate so long as it
continues to be valid, and therefore,
teacher holding valid protest. onaI
certificate cannot be required or COM
PEELED by School Board to undergo
an examination in any district in
which the certificate is valid. The
action proposed by your Board or
| Committee, if carried into effect, will
be regarded as an unwarranted and
arbitrary exercise of official authority"
In conclusion Mr.. Stewart says:
SIN the exercise of the powers
conferred upon Directors by law, ant
in the performance of the duties en-.
| joined and required of School Boards
it is we'll to bear in mind the fact tina
the teachers have the rights anC
privileges under the laws governin!

and which must be respected by thel
