NO MORE BARGAINS
IN SCHOOL TEACHERS

GEORGETOWN. DEL June 25.-Learn-
ing that some of the school districts in
Sussex county hired teachers last year
with the understanding that their sala-
ries would be the balance left over from
certain amount. less the running ex-
penses Of the school, the School Com
mission has put its foot down on any
such bargains this year and has notified
all schools and teachers that the school
will lose their State aid and the teachers
their certificates if they are a party to
such contracts.
The Commission fears that a teacher
would allow needed repairs to continue
in order to get the money for his own
pockets AS the State aid this year foi
each school will amount to S2lS It is not
likely that any Of the schools will dis.
obey the commands of the commission.

Cesare Lonbroso
TeIlsAbout Ghosts

Lonlbroso is one of the leading
scientists of Europe, an expert in
criminology and psychology.
Some years ago he made light
Of the idea of "ghosts and
psychic research. A prominent
Italian professor challenged him
to investigate, and Lombroso
accepted. Since then he has
studied ghosts with the same
care and precision which won him
fame in analyzing criminals. His
principal subject has been the
world famous medium, Eusapia
Paladino. He has investigated
her feats of levitation-of mate
rialization-all the phenomena.
The results are marvellous.
He has written out his report
carefully and it is by all odds the
most authoritative article on
psychic research ever printed.

that he never entered into politics. He
also made known the fact that he would
not support Knots.
This seemed to release all the pent-
up venom which Mr.. Kane" possessed,
according to Sax. and he hurled at him
the most unmerciful abuse. Being a
small man physically Mr.. Sax realized
his disadvantage and refrained from
coming back in manner justified by
the curses and vilIihcation. The abuse
wore on his nerves to such an extent
that he was incapacitated for work for
some time afterward
1t was not known who Kane" was
until yesterday when Englehart was
suspected and, being caught in the ruse,
admitted the whole story.
When asked by Sax why he cursed
his father he replied that, didn't do
It until he refused to support Knots"
Then Sax. who seemed less than half as
big as the towering Englehart. heaped
upon him another choice line of in
vectives.
1t was thought by some persons that
THE TINES in the first story referred
to William Cain, the contractor. as the
Kane" who attempted to secure the
contribution, but Mr.. Cain easily proved
an alibi. and was the man referred to
in the story.

WAGES MUST Be SET OUT

James Bingham, attorney general.
has delivered an opinion 70 the state
superintendent of public instruction to
the effect that contrat between
a teacher and a township trustee is
designate the wages to be paid the
teacher for services. The ques-
ton came up from Putnam county
where a teacher had signed a con-
tract with a trustee to eeach in a
public school but had left the per
diem blank, wishing to fill it in aft
er she had attended county institute
and had therefore earned the right to
add percent to her general average,
which regulates the wages paid.
While the prospective teacher was
attending the institute the patrons
of the school circulated a petition
and obtained a majority OF names
against her employment. When con-
fronted with the petition the teacher
claimed her right to employment on
the grounds that the contract had been
signed.
Robert J. Alley. state superintendent.
added to the opinion a statement to
the effect that the law provided that
a trustee should not employ a teacher
against whom objections have been le-
gally raised by means Of a majority
of patrons names on a petition. The
young woman in question is said to
have seized the keys TO the school
house and declared that she would not
give them up.

harangued the crowd, INDUCING in a
line of accusations and abuse instead
of arguments. Mr.. Patterson succeed

present that If mud singing was an
important qualification in governing a
city, there was no necessity for looking
farther for a candidate.

neers. and no man knows more about
the affairs Of Whiting than he.
In Harness over Third of Century.
When whiting was Incorporated in
1895 he was one of the first elected on
the town board The terms then were
only of one years duration, but Mr..
Schrage was reelected each year until
1899. which year he did not serve. but
was reelected again in 1900 and has
been in the city council up to the pres
ent time, making his length of service
thirteen years.
Mr. Sehrage has the distinction of be-
ing one of the first in about every pro-
ject in thi csity. He was. in addition
to being a member of the first council.
Writings first postmaster, being in
this office for twenty-five years, from
1871 until 1896.
He started the first bank in Whiting,
which was in April, 1898. of which he
has always been the individual owner
In addition to being owner of the Bank
of Whiting he is also owner of an East
Chicago bank. If he is elected mayor
he will also have the distinction OF
being the first republican mayor.
The fight will certainly be a strong
one, as Beaumont F. Parks. the demo
cratic candidate, is assistant superin-
tendent of the Standard Oil company
and owing to this fact he is very in
fluential and both parties are now pre-
dieting the hardest fight for this office
in the history of our city.
Frank NJ. Long, who has withdraw
from the race in Mr.. Schrage's favor
will again be a candidate for alderman
of the third ward.
