ANOTHER CONVENTION.
State Gathering Of Undergraduates
Will Be Held in This City
Next Week.

This Is a great town for conventions
In some respects it will be as import-
ant, IL not more important. than the
political conventions, which are a more
or less continuous performance with
us. This will be the annual state con-
Vention of the Kindergarten associa-
ton. Hitherto it has been held in the
western part of the state, where much
enthusiasm seemed to exist. but at this
time it is thought that visit to Scran-
ton Will be of value in various ways
as so much interest Is manifested in
the kindergarten work in the public
schools.
The convention will be in session on
Thursday and Friday, October 10 and
ii. The public meeting on Friday even
ing Will be the great feature of the
sessions, as at that time Miss Anna
Williams. the famous kindergartener
OF Philadelphia. will make an address
worth hearing by everybody. Miss AL
lison, also being we'll known in the
work in Pittsburg, will speak on this
occasion.
Special interest will be felt in Miss
Williams coming. when the public
learns through these columns that al
mist every man in the city is carrying
her portrait in his pocket. If he is not,
the realization of his detection prob
ably afflicts him. Miss Williams is the
young woman whose classic style of
beauty was so pronounced that she was
selected as a model for the head on the
silver dollar dear to Bryan and others.

Director Wormser Says No Fireman
Will Now Be Removed Except He
Violates New Rules.

The fire department of this city to-
day goes under the new rules and reeu-
lations, which were recently prepared
by Director of Public Safety wormser,
and according to statement made
yesterday afternoon by that official to
Tribune man, every fireman in the
department is now safe from removal
as long as he properly conducts him
self.
"iou can say for me-" said the di-
rector, that no fireman will be re-
moved from the department from now
on unless he violates the rules adopted
for his guidance. or behaves in a man
ller unbecomins an employe of this
city. l desire to have it positively and
definitely understood that there will be
no removals for political reasons in the
future. Good behavior and efficiency
will be the standards by which men
will be solely judged.
NO man will be removed unless
there are charges preferred against
him serious enough to warrant his re-
moval and then not until those charges
are proved beyond the question of a
doubt | have not yet decided about
the method of conducting the trials of
accused firemen.
Il believe that when the charges are
of slight nature that I, myself, will
be the judge Of their correctness but
that when they are of sufficient gray
ity to warrant a mans dismissal I shall
have them heard. as provided in the
ripper bill, by a court of inquiry to
consist OF men chosen from the depart
ment.
"There will be no packing of courts,
and the accused men in all instances
VIII be given fair and open trial.
intend to make all hearings open to
the general public and to the press, so
that no charge can be made that we
are conducting things in an under
handed way. Let us hope, however.
that we will not have any occasion to
conduct any trials"
The new rules for the guidance of the
police force are yet in course of prep
aration and will not be ready until the
middle of the month, or perhaps later.

A STABBING AfFRAY.
John Kupst Dangerously Wounds
Walter Walkovitz, in Dickson
City Borough.

Walter WalkovitZ, Polander resid-
ing on Dundaff street, Dickson City
borough, was stabbed in the neck and
perhaps fatally injured on Saturday
night by fellow countryman named
John kupst. The latter has been ar
rested and is in the county Jail await
ing the result of Walkovitzs' injuries.
There has been a standing feud be-
tween the families of the two men for
several years and according to the
stories told by several witnesses they
became engaged in a quarrel on Satur-
day night in John BobuzZi's saloon on
Main street.
Walkovitz started home and was fol-
lowed by Kupst. who caught up to him
as he was entering the yard in front of
his house. The two men grappled and
kupst drew a pocketknife which he
opened and stuck with all his force
into Walkovitzs neck just under the
left ear. The blade missed the large
arteries but struck the vertebrae.
kupst pulled the knife out and stuck
Walkovitz again, this time nearly
severing his ear.
The injured man fell to the ground
and his assailant made good his es-
cape.
Walkovitzs wounds We're not dressed
until early Sunday morning owing to
careless delay in summoning medi-
cal assistance. DR.. Bilheimer, who
dressed the injuries, said to a Tribune
man that the injured man was in a
very serious condition and that the
danger of the wound becoming infect
ed was great on account of the attend
ant circumstances.
Kupst was arrested yesterday morn
ing and committed without bail to
the county Jail by Burgess Kennedy
to await the result of Walkovitz's in
iuries. Kupst admitted having done
the stabbing, but said he did it in self
defense
