CLOSE OF INSTITUTE.
Teachers Adopt Resolution Asking
for Pay for Twelve Months In
stead of Ten as at Present.

This years teachers institute was
brought to close yesterday morning
with session which lasted from 8
O'Clock till just precisely noon.
An able address was delivered by
Professor w. w. Grant, principal of
the high school, who pleaded for recog-
milton for the individual scholar by
the teacher. The bright pupil should
be singled out, he said and advanced
instead of holding him in check by
keeping him in the same class with
pupils less bright and more sluggish
than he.
Civil Engineer \. y. Duunirg, of
this city, gave an Interesting talk en-
planning in an easy, understandable
way how surveyors and engineers do
ii great many things. He explained
how the height OF hills and mountains
is obtained and how points on the sur
face are located III the mines. He told
something about the construction of
bridges and of the workings Of the
telephone and illustrated many of his
points by diagrams ON IL blackboard.
Professor T. C.. Mcndcnhall gave Il
delightful little ten minute talk in an
entirely different vein from anything
he had said before. He told the true
story of the origin of the immortal
poem, MARY Had Il Little Lamb"
There was little lamb, he said, who
followed Mary to school and both of
them lived in New England.
Resolutions We're unanimously passed
requesting the school board To con-
slider school year as twelve months
instead of ten months as at present
and to pay the present monthly salary
for that period. The resolutions also
contained II clause expressing gratih-
cation at the re-appointment of DIR.
Nathan Schacifer as state supcrin-
tendent of schools.
1t is probable that Superintendent of
Schools Howell will go to Brooklyn
in the near future to Investigate per-
sonally the 'Rational' system of
teaching reading explained during the
institute by Miss Eginton, with IA view
of recommending it's adoption in this
city.

OUTBREAK AT DICKSON,
When Girls Working in Bliss Mill
Left for Their Homes They Were
Yelled at and Followed.

For the first time in some weeks an
outbreak of violence on the part of the
striking silk mill girls took place yes
terday. 1T occurred at Dickson City,
where SO many of the disturbances
have taken place during the strike.
When the few girls working in the
Bliss mill left for their homes about s
o'clock, they were greeted with angry
cries of 'scab" and "blackleg," and
were followed for some distance by a
number of girls and small boys, some
Of whom added violence to their verbal
abuse. No one was, however, injured.
The management of the mill has is
sued a. warrant for the arrest of Lizzie
Stiebler, who is accused of being one OF
the ringleaders, and tomorrow four
more warrants will be sworn out for
other alleged leaders of the attack.
Mr.. Bliss said last night that the
girls at the Dickson City mill had de-
cided to go back to work, but were dis
suaded by Mother" Jones, who hap
pened along just after the decision was
arrived at. He further charges that
Burgess Kennedy is responsible in no
small degree for the violence, because
Of his failure to make any effort to give
the working girls protection. Mr.. Bliss
goes further and says that Burgess
Kennedy has been guilty OF calling one
of the mill foremen opprobrious names.
The Textile Workers union has de-
clded that it will be wise to send but
two or three delegates to the national
convention which Is to be held May g.
at Holyoke, Mass, instead of having
representatives from each of the locals.
1t is likely that these delegates will
be selected during the coming week.
Al 10 o'clock this morning the unions
executive committee will meet with
the Central Labor union delegates, and
discuss means of increasing the strik-
ers' eNchequer and of securing con-
ference with Superintendent w. II.
Davis. of the Sauquoit mill. Chair
man Gothier, of the Labor union COM
mittee has stated that energetic efforts
will be made next week to come to an
agreement with the superintendent of
the Sauquoit, and through him the
other operators, The Sauquot hard
silk local met yesterday but trans
acted little business of Importance.

criminal court practically wound w
yesterday for the week. Today surety
cases will be heard by the judges
Before Judge Mcclure in No. . Alfred
Mickles was tried yesterday OH q
charge of fraudulently making n mar
riage certificate which he presented
to Carrie Heglin, girl of fifteen. She
believed that this was all the formality
necessary to marry her to Frank
Compton, and they lived together for
some time as man and wife. Miss Heg-
Inns mother prosecuted Mickles for his
part in the deception.
Mickles' attorney, Frank r.. Boyle
raised the point that he could not be
held, inasmuch as his client did not
actually fill out the marriage certif-
cate, that being done by young Comp
ton. Ut was shown. however. that
Mickles had dictated what Compton
should write and. in fact. had suggest
ed the whole scheme. His fate was
therefore left to the jury to decide. II
had not returned a verdict at adjourn
ing hour.
Charges against Compton of forgery
and of having unlawful relations with
Carrie Heglin We're continued until the
next term.
Henry Stanton was tried for having
committed an aggravated assault and
battery on Martin Odendahl, both men

journing hour.

kulick was tried for criminally as
saulting Mrs. John Matlock.. Both par
ties live in the big brick house at
Scranton and Seventh streets, where it
is alleged the offense occurred. Kulick
says it is an effort to extort money
from him and strongly denies the
charge. The verdict will be returned
this morning.
Mrs. Sophia Miller was charged by
Constable Joseph Woelkers with keep
ing speakeasy on Elm street, South
Scranton. She was defended by Attor-
ney NJ. J. DOnahue. who asked the
court to give binding instructions to
the jury to acqut Mrs. Miller, on the
ground that it is the theory of old
common law that Il woman acts under
the direction of her husband, and that
1t was Miller, and not his wife. who
should be held responsible for the
speakeasy. The Judge allowed the case
to go to the jury, which will return it's
verdict this morning.
Mrs. Mary MotZa, of Carbondala, was
tried before Judge Kelly on charge
of being unfaithful to her husband.

prosecutor. On Sept. H. last, Mrs.
Rega testified that she saw Mrs. Motza
and man named Joe Vulleli occupy
ing /, bed in her (Mrs. Rcga's) house.
The defense was a general denial and
an allegation that the prosecution was
due to spite. The jury was out at ad-
journing time.
George Nichols was tried on charge
of assault and battery. Petro Itoola,
an n-year-old Syrian boy. being the
prosecutor. He alleged that Nichols

REMARKABLE SUCCESS.


large and constantly increasing
majority of the American people are
catarrh sufferers. This Is not entirely
the result of our change able climate
but because modern Investigation has
clearly proven that many diseases
known by other names. are really ca.
tarrh. Formerly the name catarrh was
applied almost exclusively to the com.
mon nasal catarrh. but the throat
stomach, liver. bladder, kidneys and
intestines are subject to catarrhal dis.
eases as well as the nasal passages.
In fact, wherever there is mucous
membrane there is q feeding ground
for catarrn.
The usual remedies, inhalers, sprays
douches or powders, have been practic-
ally failures, as far as anything more
than temporary relief was concerned
because they simply dry up the nu-
cous secretions. without having the re-
motest effect upon the blood and liver,
which are the real sources of catarrhal
diseases.
1t has been known for many years
that the radical cure of catarrh could
never come from local applications. but
from an internal remedy. acting on the
blood and expelling the catarrhal
poison from the system.
A new internal preparation which
mas been on the market only a short
time, has met with remarkable sue
cess as a genuine, radical cure for
catarrh.
1t may be found in any drug store,
sold under the name of Stuart's Ca
tarrh Tablets, large pleasant tasting
lozenses, composed principally of anti
septic ingredients, Eucalyptol, Guaia-
col, Sanguinaria, Hydrastin and SINH
lar catarrh specifics.
Dr. Ainslee, in speaking OF the new
catarrh cure, says: Il have tried the
new catarrh remedy, Stuart's Catarrh
Tablets, uoon thirty or forty patients
with remarkable satisfactory results.
They clear the head and throat more
efectually and lastingly than any
douche or inhaler that have ever SEEM
ana although they are what is called
patent medicine and sold by drug
gists, l do not hesitate to recommend
them as 1 know them to be free from
cocaine and opiates, and that even q
little child may use them with entire
safety"
Any sufferer from nasal catarrh,
throat or bronchial trouble, catarrh of
the stomach, liver or bladder will find
Stuarts Catarrl Tablets remarkably
effective, pleasant and convenient. and
your druggist will tell you they are abb
solutely free from any injurious drug.
