Until long after midnight the streets

other missiles, proceeded to "elear
the streets" by means. of sabre
charges, which were executed with /.
extreme ferocity. Several policemen |
were badly injured by missiles. The
official account states that 1000
rioters were engaged in the disturb

TEACHERS FOR

HAZLETON, Pa. April u.

HALLEION, IA, April u.
Believing that their needs have not

State Legislators, the school teachers
in Pennsylvania have started a gener.
al movement to organize in the in
terest of State retirement fund.
In Luzerne county a committee of
three has the work in hand at Halle.
ton, and is rapidly securing the ap.
pointment of like committees in other
cities and towns in that county. The
work is campaign of education in re-
gard to the proposed retirement fund.
The teachers have pledged themselves
to use their personal influence in cre-
! ating public sentiment favoring the
scheme, and the county organization
will carry the work in "a uniform man
ner into all other counties.
| Funds for the movement have been
provided by the teachers assessing
themselves per cent. of one months
salary. Tie Luzerne county impetu
has already been made noticeable in
other sections, and is rapidly spread
