California School Directors are Facing
Dilemma

CALIFORNIA, Pa, Sept Though
the schools of town were to have start
ed today, they have not yet opened
and there is no telling when they will
The trouble is disagreement between
the school board and officials of the
Normal school,
California has never had a public
school building. BY the payment Of so
much per capita the district pupils
entered at the Normal school, The
agreement permitted the selection of
FIVE teachers for the Normal school
by the school board. Last week q
meeting was held to arrange matters
for this term.
Everything seemed satisfactory I'M
til the contract was signed, when Prof.
Ross, of the Normal school, refused
TO sign and all efforts TO get together
have failed. A meeting was schedul-
ed for last night, but the Normal Off
Gals failed to show up. The matter
will probably be taken to court.

SERIOUSLY WOUNDED.
Miss Mary Gribble Struck with

A Lies Unconscious all Night from the
Effects Of Blow Inflicted by Some
Unknown Person The Injury may
Prove Fatal.
Mary Gribblc, 10 years old daugh
ter of Mr. and Mrs 5. Y. Gribble
of the First ward, lay in a semi-un-
conscious condition all d last g.agtt,
from the effects of wound ON the
forehead, caused by the throwing of
a stone or some heavy missile, by
some unknown person, about eight
o'clock Thursday evening
About $50 o'clock last evening
DIR. Gardner was called to the home
of the Gribble's. which lies just be
You'd Oak Grove cemetery, on the
hill, to attend to the injuries of their
daughter Mary. DR. Gardner found
the girl unconscious, with large
swelling or confusion on the right
side of the forehead, about hall way
between the eyebrow and the hair
There were evidences of great nerv-
Gus shock, and this together with
the nature Of the injury which was
severe made it impossible to make a
close examination, such as would
determine whether or not the skull
is fractured The girls condition
is so serious that death may re-
suit and everything possible was
done to relieve any immediate dan
ger.
Mrs. Gribblc is of the opinion
that some boys playing In the road
way near the house, threw the stone
that inflicted the wound. The po-
lice were called in but were unable
to locate the parties who were re-
sponsible for the injury to Miss
Gribble.
DIR. Gardner examined Miss Crib
ble's head this morning, and found
that there was no concnssion OF the
brain The effects Of the shock is
is the worst now, from which the
girl will suffer, and she will have re-
covered her health within short
time.
