"WoOdman, Spare That Tree"

Considerable adverse criticism has
been heard of the action
of the Board of Supervisors,
at their last meeting, in ordering one
of the shade trees to be removed from
the court house yard, This step was
taken when only four members were
present. The vacancy i'll the Natu-
raj Bridge district had not been filled
and the supervisor from Lexington
district, Mr. j. H. Whitmore, was
absent. 1t is understood that had
Mr.. Whitmore been present ne would
have opposed the removal.
For twenty years these trees have
Eeen nurtured with the greatest care.
They are now vigorous shade trees,
an ornament and comfort to the
courthouse square, affording refresh
ing shade. Because of IA short sight
ed policy the work of twenty years
was destroyed in as man: minutes.

The Normal School was twice de-
ieated at base ball last week. On
Thursday Tamaqua took them into
camp to the tune of I3 to II, and
on Saturday Pittston came down
and won a tiresome exhibition by
the score of IS to IS. The loss Of
both games was due, principally tc
Intellectual work in the box Turn
bach was sent in to do the pitching
against Tamaqua, but it was an of
day for Jack and his curves were
pounded hard and often. He re.
tired in the fourth inning in favor
of Steventon, but he could not check
the onslaught, and his delivery was
hit harder than that Of his prede
cessor. On Saturday, Shaffer, the
only available man, excepting Hays
who is suffering from sore arm,
was sent to the slab by Captain
Newton. He only lasted five in.
nings, during that time the visitors
piled up sixteen runs. Steventor
finished the game. Only eight in
nings were played, in order to
allow Pittston to make the GA
train for home.

though the report is not authenticated,
that the works will be removed to

speaking of the rumored move says;
