age One year ago last Easter he

ne sustained one or two slight strokes
he still got along without much diff
Guilty, except that at times he com
planned of a weakness in the limbs.
Tuesday he felt better than for a long
time previously. a fact he remarked
| unon TO some friends who he met on
the bridge while returning from Dan

About 9 o'colck Mr.. Miller retired.
4 short time later an unusual noise az
if of some one snoring loudly was
heard in his room and a moment later
! he called to his wife, who on hurry
ing to the spot found him dying. A
messenger was quickly despatched for
DR.. n. NJ. Smith, the family physi-

ysis.

DEPOT SCHOOL
WILL Be SOLD

The School Board held regula
meeting Monday. Among other mat
ters taken up relating to the opening
of the term was the subject of vaccina
tion, which, as things now stand, i,
apt to interfere a little with attend
ance
In the first place it developes that il
many cases vaccination was put of
until the very last moment. Thus not
few pupils appear in school whose
vaccination has not rs yet developed
The surprising part of it is that not a
few of these newly vaocinated children
have been granted certificates by the
physicians setting forth that they
have been successfully" vaccinated
1t was the sense of the Board that the
! physician makes a mistake who fills
! out the blank setting forth that tl e
child has been successfully" vaccin-
ated and presents it on the day when
vaccination takes place before he
knows whether the operation will be
a success or otherwise In the major
ity of such instances that is the last
ever heard of it and in case the vac
cinatiOn proves unsuccessful the pu-
pills slip through the school unvaccin-
ated, contrary to the law.
On motion of DR.. Harpel the secre.
tary was ordered to request the differ
ont physicians OF the Borough not to
present certificates of successful vac
cination until after the expiration of
at least week. Ii necessary to admit
pupil brief statement. setting
forth that vaccination has taken place
il was recommended be written out
and later Oh, if it proves a success, the
proper ertifioate be presented.
It was the sense of the board that
the Depot School property. which is
no longer needed for school purposes,
should be disposed of at public or |
private sale.
On motion of DR.. Harpel it was ord
cred that the school property be adver-
tised for sale in the Morning News.
On motion of Mr.. Fischer it was ord
cred that the Supply Committee be in
'tructed to purchase wood for each Of
-he four wards.
On motion of Mr.. Fischer it was de
,ided that the Printing Committee be
ordered to procure 1000 monthly re-
BORT cards for use in the schools.
Mr. Fischer of the Building and Re
,air Committee reported that the re-
lairs authorized by the Board had
leen generally carried out satisfnct-
rilv. He named few minor defects
which had been overlooked and recon-
nended that they be attended to. On
notion the Rrildino and Renair Com.

1t is from Panama the latest application comes for interference
IN local affairs by the United States. The vice president of the infant
republic placed a memorial from his political party in the hands of
Secretary Taft on the occasion OF the latters recent visit TO the

What the vice president charges is that the bipartisan scheme
Of government established in Panama is proving very defective; that
the president, who is a Conservative, is employing the powers of the
government 10 Cypress the Liberals. who constitute the opposition
party. He declares there is absolutely no chance OF a free election
unless the United States intervenes. Obviously this is a call upon
Uncle Sam to act as policeman and to bring his big stick With
him.
