with more thar 5000 people. His wife was
with him and took n part in the hand
shaking. Repeated attempts We're made
to induce Bryan 60 make a speech, but he
was deaf TO the appeal Of the multitude.
Congressman Beltzhoover, Of Carlisle, and
VIII X. Meyers, Of Harrisburg, went
through to New York with the party.
At Philadelphia large and enthusiastic
crowd succeededin forcing its way through
the Pennsylvania railroad gates when the
Bryan train rolled into the station on time
at 8 p. II. The regulations Of the railroad
company permits only those having tickets
TO pass through the gates, but the Grove
Of Bryan enthusiasts became so great that
the officials ordered that O few hundred
be admitted to the train platform, in order
TO relieve the congested condition in the
station. Both Mr.. and Mrs. Bryan up
peared on the rear platform OF the car and
shook hands with all who could come
within reach. No speeches were made.
Several handsome bouquets of roses were
presented to Mrs. Bryan. A number of
Philadelphia Democrats remained on the
train and escorted Mr.. Bryan and his party
as far as Trenton.
There was no stop between Philadelphia
and Trenton. A crowd of about 100 gath
cred on the platform and cheered Justify
as the train came TO q stop In the station.
A great crowd was prevented from greet
ing the candidate by the failure of the
railroad officials to open the gates loading
to the train platform. Mr.. and Mrs, Bryan
shook hands with all who could get near
them in the limited time, and after a stop
of one minute the train proceeded. Just
as the train was pulling out Mrs. Bryan
threw u big bouquet of roses into the
crowd. This was eagerly pulled to pieces
by men anxious to obtain u souvenir OF
the occasion.

SCHOOL TERM DRAWS NEAR
All the Local Public Schools Open on
August oath.
new BUILDING WILL NOT BE READY
The Contractors Expect to Complete it by
the Latter Part of September, But it
viii Hardly be Occupied Before
the Middle of October.

1t is not pleasant to contemplate, in the
midst of the present sizzling season, that the
vacation days are rapidly drawing to a close
and that work must soon receive attention in
spite of the condition of the thermometer.
Such is the lot of the school teachers and
pupils Of the public schools. They are now
scattered in various parts of the country, some
s~trolling on the sands, or dipping in
the waters of the Atlantic coast, others
seeking recreation and pleasure on farms, or
at mountain resorts that afford a change in
contrast with the coal fields, but in less than
two weeks their presence will be required in
the school rooms and the delights of the
present hours will exist only in memory.
The public schools will reopen on
the oath inst. and everything is in
readiness for the occasion, with the
exception of the new White street school
building. All the teachers are elected and
the school supplies needed for the term have
been received. The work of sorting these
supplies has been going on for some time and
will be completed several days before the
date fixed for the opening Of the schools.
The contractors of the new White street
school building say the plastcrers will be-
gin work tomorrow and they expect to
have the structure entirely completed by the
2sth Of September. 1t is not likely that it
will be ready for occupancy before the middle
Of October. In view of this delay the
School Board will retain possession of the
Primitive Methodist church basement on
month to month agreement, as the place will
be required to meet the expected enrolment
at the beginning Of the term.
There is no date for a regular meeting of
the School Board between the present time
and the gath inst, but the Board will I'M
doubtedly hold a special meeting in the
meantime to arrange for the final preliminaries
to the opening of the schools. At the last
meeting the Board left all minor promotions
in the corps of teachers to the discretion of
the superintendent, but as Superintendent
BOgart has been engaged for several days
in making arrangements for the removal
of his family to town, he has not been able
to give the promotions attention. They will
be looked after in due time, however. Super
intendent Bogart has given ample notice for
the examination of night school applicants,
however, by publishing a card to the effect
that they will take place on the 18th inst.
The recommendations will doubtless be made
at the regular meeting of the School Board
on the first Wednesday of September.

Married This Afternoon.

A quiet but pretty wedding occurred this
afternoon, at 300 o'clock, the contracting
parties being Benjamin F, James and Miss
Mary A. Troutman, two prominent young
people of town. The ceremony was per-
formed by Revs. Robert O'Boyle, pastor of
Trinity Reformed church, and d. |. Evans,
of the Welsh Baptist church, at the home of
the brides parents, AS West Cherry street.
Miss Toy Ferris, of Gilberton, and Joseph
Hopes, Of Mahanoy City, supported the
couple. The wedding was a quiet one, none
but relatives of the families being present.
After partaking of a wedding dinner, the
couple left on the 4;15 Pennsylvania railroad
train for Philadelphia and Washington, and
will return home on Monday. They will
reside on South West street, where Il hand
somely furnished house awaits them. The
couple were the recipients of many costly and
valuable presents.

A Church Rnys Properly.

The congregation of the Greek Catholic
church has purchased one of the properties
adjoining the church's property on West
Centre street, from Mrs, Catherine Rowley for
81 500, and will convert it into a parsonage.
The existing parsonage is located at the rear
of the church and fronts on Raspberry alley,
which is not desirable. Mrs. Rowley and her
family have moved to Germantown, Phila-
delphia.

WHEELING, w. Va, Aug. 12.-The state

manding that none but silver men be

attorney l. c. Rapphsnyder, who is the
Populist nominee; Judge w. G. Bennett
and Colonel c. Smith. Watts has the lead
