cause of their recent and numerous

are way UP on conventions and recep-

A special to the Philadelnhia "Press

A special to the Philadelphia "Press'
from Columbia, Pa, on Wednesday
states that the citizens of this PENN
sylvania city are stirred up over an
attempt to force negro children into
the white schools. Naturally the par
ents of white children object
to this, but the laws of Repub-
lican Pennsylvania will very proba-
bly, uphold the negroes in their con
tention. The custom, it is said. lis al
ready dn vogue in many interior Penn
sylvanfa towns. Delawareans hereto
lore have been able to keep the color
line distinctly draw in their public
schools. 1t lies entirely with our vo-
ters as to whether they will be able to
continue this protection to their chill
dren.

The city of Carbondale had n new
transient 'boarder in its bastile yester-

theory that this town is a wide-open
affair and 1t was his duty to eniven
things. With this object in view. lie
caused notable diminution in the sup
ply of liquids exposed for sale in q
number of the places devoted to the
refreshment of the weary traveller. and
then set out to Whoop things up in an
enthusiastic manner. officer Bell was
among those whom he encountered In
his zig -zaggy route. and the policeman
hailed him, brought him to and con-
Voyed him to u place where he could
rest in peace and solitude.
He did not seem impressed with the
simplicity of the architecture in his
new ROOM nor the way in which the
daylight struggled through the one
window, so he proceeded to change the
aspect Of the panes and had progressed
so far as to demolsh three when he
was quickly yanled out and put into q
dark cell.
At 10 o'clock Mayor kilpat trick opired
that he had had about five dollars

so but that was of no material az
