MIR. GEORGE WESTINGHOUSE.
The Great Electrician of Air Brake
Fame, in an Interview published
in Niagara Falls Cataract, Said:

you are destined 70 have one of the
greatest manufacturing cities in the
world. No locality can compete with
your cheap water power.
when manufacturers locate here
you will be astonished at the rapidity
with which they will multiply. Half q
dozen factories will attract half
dozen more; that dozen will beget an
other dozen, and they will go on in
creasing in geometrical proportion.
Your locality possesses all the advant-
ages of transportation facilities and Is
advantageously centrally located as n
distributing point for the whole coun-
try, and from what / know of cleo
tricity and of it's possibilities when
generated by the water power you
have here, l expect to see a city at
Niagara Falls which will astonish the
world with rapidlty of its growth"

last night on West Lackawanna ave-

where he was, and Peters and Lieu

He resisted stubbornly, struck at the
two officers furiously with his crutch,
and threatened to shoot them when
he got loose.

with 1t. The cripple was taken to the

TO EXTEND SCHOOL VACATION
Superintendent Howell Now Favors
the idea.

Superintendent of Schools Howell
Is now known to favor the project Of
postponing the opening of the public
schools from September 4 to Septem-

this fact will have a great deal to do
with the boards action on this ques-
tion when it comes up at the next

Many OF the members opposed the
Idea at first but II is expected that
the superintendent's arguments will
convince them that they are in the
wrong.

J. L. Robinson, the proprietor of a
merry-go-round in the vicinity Of Nay
Aug park, was arrested yesterday
morning for the fifth time on the
charge of maintaining nuisance on
Sundays.
Mr.. Robinson was arrested
for the fourth time last week
upon the complaint OF citizens
residing in the neghborhood
of the park, for running his "go" on
Sunday, August IL. AS Mayor Moir
issued the warrant and as he was ous
of the city when Robinson was arrest
ed, Alderman Kasson. who was acting
in his stead, postponed the hearing un-
til yesterday morning.
Now. Robinson, not at all abashed,
ran his merry-go-round again last
Sunday, whereupon the same property
owners had another warrant sworn
out on Monday for his arrest. He
was arrested on this warrant just as
he was entering the courtroom yes
terday morning to answer to the fourth
charge.
The only witnesses whose testimony
was heard by the mayor in the fourth
case were w. G. Conrad and Stephen
Mr.. Robinson. started in to be funny
and asked Mr.. Jones If 1t wasn't a
fact that nothing but sacred selections
were rendered by the hand organ.
Mr. Jones replied in the negative and
furnished Mr.. Scragg with a list of
the sacred" music which included
"She Was Bred in Old Kentucky"
Darling Sue" and a few others of
a like sort.
MAYOR WAS CONVINCED.
Attorney Hand wanted to swear
some more witnesses for the prosecu-
tion, but the mayor wouldn't have it,
saying he had more than SUFFICIENT tes-
timony already.
Mr.. Scragg then moved for Robin
sons discharge, on the ground that
the act of assembly, under which he
was arrested, is not constitutional. The
mayor announced that higher court
than he would have to decide that
question and promptly fined the pris-
oner $40.
charge.
Mr.. Scragg contended that Robinson
was arrested while answering to an
other charge and that his arrest was
therefore illegal. His Honor didn't
look at it in that way, however, and
took the evidence of the witnesses for
the prosecution.
b. B. Hicks and Livy S. Richard
maintained that Robinson's machine
seriously annoyed them on Sunday. Mr.
Scragg offered no defense and Robin
son was accordingly fined a second
$1O
1t is believed, however that a COM
promise will be effected at least that
is what Mayor Moir announced yes
terday afternoon.
Robinson's contention all along has
been that he would have closed his
merry -go-round on Sundays If the pro.
prietOrs of the one inside the park did
likewise. He has insisted that he is
the victim of a special persecution.
NOT COMPLAINED OF.
The truth of the matter is that
though the merry -go-round inside the
park has been running on Sundays
it doesn't seem to have annoyed any
person, as no complaints about it were
entered with the mayor, whereas il
| Robinson's case the complaints have
| been innumerable.
The mayor believes, however, that M
merry -go-round should be allowed II
| operation inside the city limits or
| Sunday, even though its proprietor dii
secure privileges from the park com
| missioners.
He has accordingly taken steps tC
have this one closed down on Sundays

Laurel Public Schools.

The School Board of this county is en-
deavoring to put manual training in the
Laurel High School, with military tactics
and a teacher of classics. On account of
limited means the School Examiner has
suggested that, as School No 1 is badly
in need of repairs, the large High School
Building be utilized by putting Graded
School No l on the lower floor and keep
ing the second floor for the high school.
By this means the much needed repairs
to School No. l would be saved and also
the running expenses of the same and the
School Commissioners could apply all the
saving of expenses to the high school 1t
is the intention that the graded school
shall retain the same teachers and be run
entirely independent of the high school
with different hours for opening, closing
and recess, thereby keeping them distinct.
The High School Building has seating
capacity for 400 pupils.
A local advisory board as stated in our
last issue having been appointed, the
School Commissioners and the Examiner
propose to leave the matter largely to the
determination of the local board and
patrons of both schools, the object being
to try to improve the high school and at
the same time act as far as possible ac
cording to the wishes of those interest

In McInoriami.

Entered into the rest of Paradise on the
night Of Sunday, the 18th inst, after an
illness of ten days, Mrs. Jeanette Yates

and daughter of the late Gonsaivo Ciagctt

When life full of usefulness, career
blessed in its influence, a character pure
and unsullied and disposition rich in
rare and priceless virtues passes into a
memory and earthly existence becomes
transformed into ethereal srlendor, the
human, finite mind is awed at the mystery
and infinite wisdom of divine Providence
The Christian turns instiuctively to the
precepts of the Master for solution, and
the answer comes in the beautiful message:
Set your affections on things above, not
on things on the earth" Beyond the
grave, the virtues that blossom and shed
their fragrance here become perfect and
eternal
In that beautiful life just endet: there
was so much to admire and love. The
devotion to her family, the fidelity to
every duty, the amiabi!ity of her DISPOSE
ton, the joyousness of her happy genial
presence shedding sunshine wherever she
appeared, the unselfishness Of her life ever
leading her to think and do for others
add lustre to the brief career, and make
her memory very dear to those she loved.
Sadly mourncd and deeply missed will
she be by the grief-stricken husband,
mother, sister, brother, and the tender off
spring-two sweet little girls--whom she
leaves behind.
Tie funeral from Trinity Church on
Wednesday was very largely attended.
The interment was in the cemetery, the
casket being borne by six young cousins
of the deceased.
Louder and louder still
Sweet seraph voices thrill,
Heaven s own harmonies blending!
Welcome, o faithful one,
Strife is forever done;
Life love, and bliss are
Glory unending!'"
