WATER is SHUT Off.
Borough of Blakely Would Not Settle
Its Score with the Scranton
Gas and Water Company.

On account of the Blakely borough
council not paying the Scranton Gas
ana Water company the rental of six
teen fire hydrants when the rent be-
came due, the Scranton Gas and Water
company yesterday had a large force Of
men at work in the borough, and the
entire sixteen fire hyrants were dug up
SO that Blakely borough is now in de-
plorable condition in case of a fire.
The water company officials stated
yesterday that If the borough again
wished to have fire protection they
would have to first purchase the hy-
dants and pay a lump sum for the
water per year to supply them. The
council has been slow in acting upon
the matter and the water company has
taken this method to bring about set
tlement. Meanwhile Blakely borough
is at the mercy of the flames, should a
fire break out.
The citizens are up in arms over the
matter and unless council takes quick
action they will call mass meeting
to take preliminary action upon the
matter Peckville had one experience of
a huge conflagration which is still fresh
in their minds.

CROWDED CONDITION
OF PUBLIC SCHOOLS
Teachers Committee Of the Board Of
Control Will Begin an Investiga-
tion Of Matter Today.

| The teachers committee of the board
of control will make tour of the
schools throughout the city today for
the purpose of investigating the over
crowding of a number Of the buildings
because Of the strike. Ways and means
for relieving this over-crowded condi-
tion will be considered before the next
| meeting Of the board.
Though no exact figures will be avail
| able before the end of the present
month it is estimated that the Increased
attendance at the schools Is at least
5000 and some are inclined to think
that 1t Is much higher. In some schools
In North Scranton and West Scranton
there are as many as seventy pupils in
some rooms where there are proper ac-
commodatons for only forty-eight
The controllers differ as to the best
methods Of meeting this question
Some favor the immediate renting Of
anneXes and the engagement of as many
extra teachers as will be necessary in
order to give each instructor only the
average number of pupils. President
Gibbons is inclined to the belief that
as the condition can only have a tenn
porary existence the best plan will be
W lHslSL upon the cnllQren attending
the schools which are not crowded even
If it should necessitate their walking
little bit farther. The objection raised
to this plan is that it would mean the
destruction of the boundary lines of
each school,
A number Of other controllers favor
the immediate establishment of night
schools for those children who work
under ordinary circumstances and who
are only attending school now because
there is a strike. 1t is pointed out that
the presence of these children in the
rooms with the regular scholars has a
tendency towards decentralization.
ut is certainly not conducive to dis
cipline,' said Controller Jennings at
Monday nights meeting. ito put
fourteen year old boy who has never
been to school before in room with
little children of six and seven year of
age"
The night schools open ordinarily the
first week in November and it is point
ed out that they might just as we'll be
opened month earlier. All these mat
ters will be threshed out by the COM
mittee before the week Is over.
