ANARCHY IN THE SCHOOLS.

Editor Of The Tribune
Sir: In today's issue I see that an
other disgracoful scene has been en-
acted in Public School No. 8 by the
pupils leaving the school because some
pupils attended whose fathers were at
work. If those children had their just
desserts. they would get good. sound
spanking from their parents, and If
they do not do 1t. it would be we'll for
the school board to take Il day off and
spank them thoroughly.
/ wonder if their parents realize
that such behavior is nothing better
than what the anarchists do. BY allow
ing or encouraging such conduct we
are training right here in our public
schools future anarchists.
IT is Il most fortunate circumstance
that the Sheridan cavalry came along
just then and frightened them away.
rp telling to what length they would
have gone.
Let us, as parents, train up our chill
dren to realize that America is free
country and every man has right
TO work if he chooses but not Il right
to hinder another from doing as he
wishes to. Mrs. j. F.. Burr.
Carbondale, oct. 8. 1902.

CANNON BALL TIME.
Fast Run to Scranton by Engineer
Bob Copeland on D. & H.

Railroaders in Carbondale are dis
cussing the record established By En-
gineer Bob Copeland on his run to
Scranton early Thursday morning, and
everywhere genial Bob is being COM
plmented on his achievement,
1t was the special train to take the
Pugliano- Cassesse wedding party to
Scranton that made the cannon ball
dash. 1t was 1.20 Thursday morning
when the train left the city station
The connecting train left Scranton ut
Lao on the Lackawanna. II can make
it with safety" smiled Bob, with
enough determination to make the
smile significant, Then he pulled open
the throttle and Engine 3Ji sailed on
down the valley. The seventy passen-
gers that made merry in the two
coaches soon realized that the engine
was doing something extra in speed
making, and when Archibald Was left
behind the train was laundering along
at, perhaps, Il 65-mile-an-h hour clip
Fifteen minutes were chopped off when
the fourteen miles to Providence had
been made. When Scranton was
reached, watches showed that the
seventeen miles had been covered in
eighteen minutes, rocord-maker. Two
minutes We're left in which to make the
Lackawanna express ON the return
trip, the seventeen miles up the valley
were made in twenty minutes. Through
out the run there was no noticea BILE
jarring or jolting; one knew the train
was lying, but the splendid roadbed
combined to make the journey rare
experience.

fit subjects for new Sanitary Policeman
Michael Gallagher to move against as
his first case. Well, any how. they're
not in town now They were sent on
their way yesterday by Constable
Michael Moran. who thereby earns pub
lie thanks.
Yesterday the enterprsing women of
the band practiced their sophistry on
some of the innocents Of the town,
hence their expulsion. The games was
thus:

Once again. would the coin take Wings

All is not we'll that does not end WELL
A good thing is no good when it is
plays out, and one of the gypsies went
up against the good thing once too
often. This particular good thing got
sore when his money parted company
and became the property of the dark
skinned maiden. Moneys too valuable
thought he, with the strike on and the
end not in sight, so he hastened after
Constable Moran and to him related
his tale of loss. Like an officer, good
and true, the constable with set teeth
and a business look went on the trail
of the coin-s -seducing young maiden.
She and three others We're coralled and
amid series of lamentations and walls
returned the price to the justicede
manding young man. Then with
gentle, fatherly look and a strong wink,
Constable Moran hinted to the gypsies
that Graftvilc was not located here;
maybe it could be located across the
Moosics or further down the valley,
but it was nae here. This hint was as
good as knockout blow of Young
Corbett's and soon thereafter three
gypsy maids We're speeding to their
camp to make their farewell to Carbon
dale.
Moral: Don't make a mistake when
you're looking for Granville and get
off at Carbondale.

A DRAMATIC TREAT.
"Under Southern Skies" Appreciated
by a Large Audience.

Manager Parker, of William Brady 8
production of "tnder Southern Skies"
received a pleasant surprise last night
at the Grand when he looked over the
audience as the curtain arose and OBJ
served nearly every seat taken. This
surprise was shared by nearly every
one, and IT was variously commented
on as evidence that Carbondale must
not be suffering 80 severely from the
strike.
Those who made up the large audi
ence were repaid in Il splendid dram
attic treat. This beautiful and touch
ing story enacted under southern skies
was warmly appreciated and the piece
will be welcomed If it should return to
tarbondale. The company is about Tie
same as appeared last year. supporting
Grace George as the star. The changes
made in the story by making Miss
Georges part less conspicuous are quite
acceptable \ new feature this year

a big hit. Their singing and dancing

A. G. TIFFANY INJURED.
Met with Accident While in the
Quaker City.

A. G. Tiffany, the contractor, came
home from Philadelphia on late Della
ware and Hudson train last night, un-
der the care of DR.. John Niles, the VIC
tim of an accident while visiting in the
Quaker city.
The telegram apprising the Tiffany
family of the happening was exceeding
ly meagre. 1t simply stated that he
had fallen and was suffering from some
fractures. However, there is no appre-
hension as to his condition.
Mr.. Tiffany was in Philadelphia on a
pleasure trip with Dr.. John Niles, when
the mshap befell him. This circum-
stance was somewhat compensating,
for. besides not being alone. he had the
care of physician on the long journey.
Mr. Tiffany was visiting the Pittsburg
Plate Glass company's plant when the
accident occurred. He fell down stairs
aud then through an opening intended
for an elevator shaft. His head was
painfully laCcrated. his shoulder was
sDraincd and hc suffered from a frac-
ture near the hip. He reached home on
the 1870 Delaware and Hudson train,
and was conveyed to his home in the
ambulance.

The makeup of the team Will he the
same as in the game with the Taylor
Reds on Thursday, with the exception
that McAndrew and Keleher change

den, and when he plays in the field
his batting is always the stronger.
Walsh, of Mayfield, will, as usual. be
in centre field.
With the emi-Professional team will
come several players who have played
in Carbondale a number of times this
season. Wirth, catcher; Griffin. pitch
er; France, shortstop: Touhill. second
base; McCue. third base: Culkin, Fer
ris and Madenspacher. in fact all of
the professional team but the first
baseman, have been here: the only
difference is that they have not all
been together on the same team though
as many as four have.

Indians Won't Play Today.

1t is a big disappointment to the
-arbondale Indians not to open the
foot ball season today, as surely en-
pected. A game had been fully ar
ranged by Manager Jones. with Wy
oming Seminary at Kingston. but on
Thursday word was received to the
effect that the Seminary eleven could
not accommodate the Indians In
stead the counter proposition was
made to come to Carbondale and play
here. Manager Jones. however. could
not see any semblance of a shadow of a
pretense of an excuse for the seminary
team not keeping the promise 50 faith
fully made and he rightly would not
brook the suggestion for the game
here. 1t will take some extraordinary
tall explaining for the Kingston eleven
to justify it's action.
Manager Jones. when satisfied that
the Seminary team would not keep to
its agreement. endeavored to arrange Il
game for tomorrow with the Alerts. of
Scranton. but this. too. was declared
off at the last moment without any
apparent reason.
1t is likely that the first game will
nov be played at Honesdale on Thurs
day next, with the Honesdale team at
the Wayne county fair. Manager
Jones is arranging for the game.

About That Scranton Game.

Some one connected with the Scran-
ton High school eleven must have been
disposed to kidding" when he gave
out to the writer's of sports on the
Scranton dailies that the High school
team from Carbondale had four of the
Carbondale Indians in the lineup at
Scranton on Wednesday. One paper
said the Mighty Hansen" was one.
and all had the name of McLain in the
lineup, while the truthful fact is that
Mac was faithfully at his post with
the Scranton Railway company while
the game was on. Hansen, "the mighty
Hansen" was likewise attending to his
business in this city. The Hansen who
played was Joe Hansen, only sub
stitute player on the Indians. Not a
member of the Indians played with the
Carbondale High school, and if any
one of the keen young men of the
Scranton High school cares to earn "A
new ball for his eleven he can do so
by coming to Carbondale and picking
out these alleged -four ringers" in the
Indians lineup.
This is no attempt to excuse the de-
feat of the Carbondale High school,
that Is none of our concern. but Man
ager Jones doesn't care to have his
eleven misrepreSented.
