MAKING s20 GOLD PIECES.
Government Mint Will Complete B.
 GOO More Under Orders.

Misled by supposition that the government has discontinued the coinage of the new $2O gold piece several persons have offered premi- ums on the few coins of the first is. sue. It is said that as much as SIC has been paid in premium on this double eagle.
 The information from the mint in Philadelphia, where these coins are made, is to the effect that the mint is now working on an eight thousand lot, under orders from the treasury department. Half of these have been struck off already and the whole lot will be finished this week. The treas ury department has not recalled its order for this lot, nor has it disclosed any intention to withhold the coins from circulation.
 When the first lot of twenty-five hundred was struck, five hundred of the gold pieces came to the sub-treas' ury in Boston. The design is not satisfactory for practical purposes as the coins have rough and sharp edges and do not stack up we'll. but the demand for the coin was lively as long as the supply lasted. There are plenty of $10 gold pieces of the new issue.

HOPES HE ISN'T WE'D
Troubles of Walter TibbaIS and
 His Wife Amelia.

Walter Tibbals of Cheshire hopes he is not married while his alleged wife who claims to have been former ly Mrs Amelia J. Burbank ex-Wlfe or Ora Burbank of Oxford says he is married. At all events he has brought a petition to the superior court to have the ceremony whatever it was annulled, and Mrs Tibbals has engaged Attorney Lynch to oppose his petition for freedom.
 Last February the woman married Burbank. In the summer she claims to have obtained a divorce in Massa- chusetts. Upon this representation Tibbals married her, but he now claims she was not divorced at the time she married him. She contends she was. The matter is returnabie to the local superior court on the first Tuesday in next month. At torney J. J. O'Neill has filed an ap- pearance for Tibbals.

BOSSES CHARGE TREASON.
Mine Owners Ask For Dissolution Of
 Western Federation.

Goldfield, New, Dec. 1.-The mine operators association addressed long communication to the commission sent by President Roosevelt to investigate the mine strike in Goldfield. The op- orators declare the Western Federation of Miners is an organization of con- spirators and suggest that the United States bring suit for it's dissolution and the officers of the union be prose. cuted for criminal conspiracy.
 We charge that this organization is reasonable in character" say the op- orators. While perhaps no overt act of levying war or adhering to the enemies of the United States might be proved within the technical definition of treason given in the constitution, the intent and purpose are ever pres. ent. This so called union carries the red flag in its procession. eschews the stars and stripes and lines the walls of it's meeting place with anarchistic and reasonable utterances. It has forsworn its allegiance to the United States and placed itself under the blood red banner of anarchy"
 President McKinnon of the local mine owners union says no good will result from the visit of the commis. sion, as they come in the interest of the mine owners.

COLLAPSED BUILDING
Committee From Safely Board
 Has Not Yet Reported

The investigation into the conduct of building inspector A. I. Chatfield in reference to the recent collapse Of two buildings is still on. The com mittee from the board of safety that is conducting the inquiry held an- other meeting yesterday afternoon and for some time Chief of the Fire department s. c. Snagg was ques- toned. The fire chief is supposed to know a thing or two about buildings and his opinion was sought on that score by the committee. Superior Court Stenographer Walsh is taking notes of the proceedings for in case the board of safety would recommend the removal of the building inspector and it would not occasion much sur prise if it did, MT Chatfield would undoubtedly take an appeal to the superior court and then the steno- grapgic notes would be used. The two building that collapsed are the one on Farm street which went down one night while the republicans were holding a rally there, and the other was owned by MT Costello on South Leonard street. Had the wOrkmen remained on the Costello building ten minutes longer they would have been precipitated to the bottom and many of them would probably have been killed. One death has resulted from the crash on Farm street, and as soon as responsibility is placed where It L ;{o Ior will he h. tered.
 There is a rumor in connection with the inquiry that Mayor Thoms has found a few words in the state constitution which forbids any such appointments as that of building ln- spector. It is said to be an office ot special privilege and emolument and if that is so, it is contrary to the con- stitution.
 In all probability the committee Of inquiry will make a report to the board of safety.

BOARD OF EDUCATION
Made Christmas Vacation From
 December 20 to January 2.

l At the meeting of the board of edu- cation, held last evening, Vice Chair- man J. J Mcdonald presided. All of 1 the members were present and Com missioner Elect c. F. Laun was a guest of the board. The petition of | George \. Driggs and others, to in clude portion of the Bunker Hill l school district in the Wateryille dis trict was granted The matter was | referred to the board of aldermen at the last meeting and it came back to the board of education to be recom- mended. The added slice includes that part of Bunker Hill lying north of the road intersecting the Water- town town branch of the New Haven road and the town farm, southeasterly line of Welton park and the Nauga- tuck river and easterly of the road running through town farm to the town line of Watertown. There was no opposition to this proposition, nor was the Bunker Hill district repre- sented.
 Superintendent Tinker communicat- ed to the board that with the eXcep- tion of one or two reports, the an- nual report is about ready to be turn ed over to the committee on printing. Also, that the services of one teacher ill the evening school had been dis pensed with, owing to decrease ill the attendance. He recommended that the Crosby High school be equipped with fire alarm gongs, and that under the rules of the board the schools should close for the Christmas vaca- ton on December 20 and reopen on December 31. This was amended by a vote to reopen the schools on Jan- uary ?.
 Regarding the fire alarm gongs it seems there are fire gongs in the build ing but there is no material differ ence in their sound from the sound of the class bells. The matter was re- ferred to the committee on school houses.
 It was voted to oppose the appl- cation for a saloon license for the building on the west corner of Brown and East Main streets on the grounds that there are two saloons between that point and the high school and that is number enough.
 It was also voted that the rules re- lating to fire drills shall be, enforced in the high school. The board then approved the pay rolls and bills and adjourned.
 There will be another meeting held on December 30.

The American people do love their ham and gravy.

IS IT RIGHT?

To The Newark Journal:
 1 read and hear many compli- ments on men after they are dead. If they deserve it, that is as 1t should be, but to us who knew them while they were living and know that they had but little re- spect for religious people and the churches fact would curse the preacher, would drink liquor and have wicked old time in general but when they die someone will bob up and say their undying spirit is safely housed in the heaven of bliss, and walking the golden streets, etc.
 1 want to say that it casts retlec- tions on the efforts of the christian people, and what they are doing to rescue the perishing." Be- sides it may cause others to go on . through life without preparing. as they should, to change worlds.

Under the pretense that It IS diverting capital from the state, and working a hardship on the people, the senate, by vote of b to 12, has repealed the Lee pro- hibition law, recently passed. The Lee law is one of the best laws on the prohibition question ever passed by the Arkansas legislature, and is the only law which has ever really given prohibition territory actual prohibition. When the people vote for prohibition, we be- lieve in giving them prohibition. Since the Lee law went into effect, Newark has come near being a prohibition town than ever In the history of the town, and this law is the only thing that has ever made prohibition an actual reality in this town. Whatever the peo- pie want, give it to them-that is one of the basic principles of the American government-and If the people vote for prohibition, we say give them prohibition. If they vote for prohition when they do not really want it, they will soon discover the mistake and correct it. We hope the house will stand by its good judgment in passing the Lee law, and kill the repeal bill.

We notice that at different towns over the state companies are be- ing organized for the pupose of establishing canning factories. That reminds us that there was such a movement on foot at New ark once. The Journal would like to see the matter taken up again little later on, and something done. Business houses alone do not make town, and if Newark ever expects to amount to any thing she must get some industrial institutions that will afford en- ployment for the people and bring money into the community.

nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extor tioners shall enherit the Kingdom of God"
 This contradicts the many fatter ing things said Of some who have died with some of these crimes hanging over them. Why not tell the truth and warn the living, en- stead of saying things that will make them take chances. As we see above, none of them can claim admission into the presence of the Redeemer unless they repent. Then let us be honest to the living, as we cannot change the state of the dead, as that is fixed and their destiny is sealed. But our mission is to the living, so let us be faithful and warn them of the danger. J. 1. MARTIN.
