Arranged for Larceny of Scrap.

Frank Lynn, Joseph Reed, Charles
Ashton and William McCann, who
pleaded guilty to the larceny of iron,
were arraigned before court yesterday,
but in the case of each sentence was
suspended
Joseph fahey, detective OF the ID.
l.. e W. railroad company, who caus-
ed the arrest of the men. was present
and explained to the court all the cir
cumstances of the case. On the night
of June 3rd last, he said, the defen-
dants entered a car of the ID. l.. & W.
company on siding here and relieved
it of n large quantity of scrap con-
signed to Curry & company. The men
he said had pleaded guilty and the
goods had been recovered.
Some of the men had large families,
while others previously bore good rep
utations, in view of which it had
been prearranged to ask that sentence
be suspended. The district attorney
offered no objection to this but stated
that he believed that the ends of JUS
tice would be fully subseryed by sus-
pending sentence.
Judge Evans told the men that he
could send each of them to the PEN
itentiary for three years, but that he
had decided to act upon suggestion and
suspend sentence. He reminded each,
however, that the matter was not set
tied finally, but if either of them
should be guilty of misconduct the
district attorney could bring him into
court on bench warrant, when the
penalty for the present offense would
be imposed on them.

Repainting Trolley Cars.

The Danville and Bloomsbury cleo
trio railway company is overhauling
its closed cars. One of them has al
ready been completed and, resplendent
with new paint, has been in service
since last Saturday, when it was first
employed at funeral. All the origin
al colors of the car have been restored
and gloss and polish impaired that
gives the car a more handsome appear
ance than when new.
The second car is now being over
hauled and will be back into service
in short time. After which the third
and last of the closed cars will be re.
painted. 1t is evident that General
Manager Miller is not content with
having the trolley track in first class
condition, but he is determined that
the rolling stock must show up in a
way to correspond. 1t is a fine evid-
ence of enterprise.

M0URNS A. B. GAULT

At Washingtonville yesterday morn
ing occurred the death of one of Mon
tour county's best known and most
popular men, A. b. Gault; citizen
honored for his upright, christian life
husband and father devoted to his
family and a man. genial and gentle
hammered, beloved by his fellowmen.
Mr.. Gault had been in i'll health for
several years as the ravages of that
dreaded disease, consumption, fasten-
ed upon his body. 1t was not, however,
until about two weeks ago that he
was compelled to retire from business.

steadily grew weaker until the end

WHO should PAY
FOR VACCINATION

The school board is in possession of
two important communications which
that body thinks should help to settle
the mooted question OF. who should pay
for the vaccination of school children
when the parents are too poor to meet
the expense.
1t is apt to occur that children of
INDECENT parents for the want of vac
cination are deprived of schooling un-
der the present law, unless either the
school board, the poor board or the
board of health makes itself RESPONSE
BILE for the payment of bills incurred
in this way.
1t has always been problem in Dan
Vile. A few years ago the school dis
trict made itself responsible and in
the end found itself confronted with a
bill of some $27 for vaccination. 1t
declined to repeat the experiment and
appealed to the poor board as the body
that should be logically expected to
assume the cost. The poor board, how
ever, gave notice that it would not
pay the bill. There has been no pro-
vision made therefore for children of
INDECENT parents and those who could
get vaccinated did so and others who
failed found themselves excluded from
school under the present law.
To obtain decisive information on
the subject at recent meeting of the
school board it was decided to address
letter to the department of public
instruction also one to the departme MT
of health at Harrisburg. Replies have
been received from both sources, terse
and to the point:
The first communication signed by
Henry Houck. deputy superintendent
of public instruction, addressed to w.
H. Orth, secretary of the school board,
says:
''In answer to your question which
has been referred to me, 1 would state
that there is no law authorizing school
boards to pay for vaccination.
The second communication, signed
by the commissioner of health, reads
as follows: "W. II. Orth, secretary.
Dear Sir In boroughs should think
the board of health should pay for vac
cination. The State has been assuming
this expense in rural districts where
there are no boards of health. Yours
very truly,

resignation the other day, says an up

the trouble, he said" I'm honest and

Arranging for Harrisburg Trip.

Company II, N. G. p, of this city,
is already making arrangements for
the trip to the dedication of the new
State capitol at Harrisburg
Yesterday Captain Gearhart issued
the following company order: "You
are hereby notified to report at the
armory on Friday evening, Sept 2S,
to receive instructions relative to at
tending the dedication of the State
capitol on Oct. 4 Failure to he pres

chambers of which were empty. The
chief of police arrested Dietrich and
took him to Jail. On the way Dietrich
repeated that he. was no murderer and
that he shot in self defense. The re-
volver was offered in evidence and
identified by the chief of police.
During the forenoon some other
cases were disposedof. In the case of
Commonwealth VS.. John Bastian,
charge perjury, mol. pros, was en-
tered by permission of the court.
In the case of Commonwealth VS..
James Rosencrans, charge larceny, the
grand jury returned true bill on first
count. A true bill was also found in
the case of Commonwealth VS.. Harry
Rosencrans on the first count, which
was larceny.
In regard to the two latter cases the
district attorney stated that the two
defendants, father and son, had plead
ed guilty. Harry Rosencrans, the boy.
had been in Jail for there months. TAX
ing all the circumstances into consid-
eration, the hospital authorities, he
said, did not wish to press the prosecu-
tion and the district attorney himself
thought justice would be done if
sentence were suspended. Both Harry
Rosencrans and his father, James Ros-
encrans, were in turn called before the
court They found the scrap, they
said, lying along the road on the hos
pital ground and being in needy cir
cumstances and not deeming that the
old iron was of any value they carried
it off and sold it. Judge Evans eX-
planned to each of the defendants that
he might send them to the peniten-
tiary for three years, but that he had
decided to act upon the suggestion of
the district attorney and suspend sem
tence. He explained. to each just what
was implied by this action of court
said he hoped that it would serve as
solemn warning in the future.
In the case of the overseers of the
poor of Limestone township VS.. the ov-
erseers of the poor of West Hemlock
township rule was granted to show
cause why costs, g., should not be al
lowed and ordered to be paid.
In the case.of Paul M. Smith VS..
Colbert Smith ct. al. an interculatory
report of master was filed.
In the estate of Mary Lockhoof,
decd, a petition .for-.sale of real estate
was ordered as prayed for.

ou- law and it necessarily follows that
that law must be supreme in the govern
ment OF all even to the government OF
the minority. To the success of gov
ernment founded On those principles
three things are essential-the general
education Of the people-true religion
and pure morality. The virtue OF our
Republic is the virtue of the individual
its morality is the morality OF its indi
viduals-our political institutions can be
no stronger than the individuals making
up that aggregate. Sir William Jones
has thus beautifully summed up the es-
sentials in our political makeup:
"Whnt constitutes State?
Not high. raised battlements or labored
mound,
Thick walls or moated gate;
Nor cities proud, with spires and tur-
rets crowned;
Not bays and broad armed ports,
Where, laughing at the storm, rich
navies ride;
Not starred and spangled courts,
Where low -browed baseness watts Fer
fume to pride.
No! Men, high-minded men,
With powers as far above dull brutes
endowed,
In forest, brake, or den,
AS beasts excel cold rocks and bram-
bles rude:
Men who their duties know,
But know their rights, and knowing,
dare maintain;
Prevent the long aimed blow,
And crush the tyrart while they rend
the chain;
These constitute State;
And Sovereign Law, that states collected
will,
Der thrones and globes elate
Sits empress, GROWING good, repres-
sing ILL.,"
