an action OF assumpsit in the Sixth
district court which was certified 20

Dennis j. Holland argued the case
for Mrs. Vine and said the first ques-
tlon was whether the appellate division
had exclusive Jurisdiction in the matter
of enforcing the order for an "a eDwance.
He read the ruhe adopted by the court
some time ago providing that the clerk
should issue execution against the
goods and chattels of the husband If

Superintendent OF Schools Ham
mers, of Indiana County, has retired
from that Office after nine years SER
vice, and his final report discloses
figures that are not to the credit OF
the local school authorities. Mr..
Hammers says that the State appro-
priation to his county was changed
from sl3,9O4.7O to s47345.65, an
increase of S33, ,440.95 year. In
striking contrast to the outside aid
has been the decrease in the wages
of teachers. Ir 1890 the average
pay was s33 a month, and for the
year ending June 1898, it was but
s31.63, decrease of S1.37 per
month.
