Then came the matter which oc-
casioned the greatest discussion Of
the evening. This was the much talk
ed of matter of REMEMBERING the
houses and business places of the city.
City Engineer Mears had scheme
which involved the making of new
maps and plats which would cost the
city approximately $1,000. Leslie
Martin and Elmer Bondley, mail car
riers, were present with suggestions.

by Members Rudolph, Bryant and

A rather important matter came up
in the form of Y resolution declaring

previously but because of apparent
lack of interest on the part of the
property owners, nothing was done.
Monday evening several property own.

Iona Mckinley had asked the board
for an increase in salary of that
amount. because of the fact that Miss
Gladys Humphreys, for whom she Is
doing substitute work, had been paid
$47.50 and she was receiving only
$45 per month. There Is no way to
keep her from being paid the amount

son. All manner of schemes were
devised to pay Miss Mckinley the full
amount or TO reduce her salary to
that of a supply teacher. Because
her certificate expires in April, she
could not be hired as a regular teach
er.
Member CUTLERY stated that the
resolutions passed by the board last
year were not binding and the board
was at liberty to make a resolution
governing such cases. Accordingly a
motion was made which put an end
to the argument. In the future the
supply teachers, of less than two
years experience, for the grade
schools, will receive $40 per month,

That there are workers in the

evinced by the fact that three men,

other debris. The workers were

the industrious workers as she came

MANY OFFICES
TO Be FILLED
Adoption Of the Present
Constitution the Cause
EVERY COUNTY AND CITY TO
HAVE MUNICIPAL ELECTION.

The claims of two favorite sons of
Wayne are being advanced by ardent
partisans as successors to the late
Congressman George w. Kipp, the
representative from the Fourteenth
District. Homer Greene is being put
forward by the Republicans and
Mayor John Kuhbach is backed by
the Democrats.
1t is rumored that a special cleo
tion may be held to fill this vacancy
in the Keystone delegation to the
lower branch of the national law
making body.
Word comes from Harrisburg that
the officials in the state government
tai departments, whose business it is
to keep track of nomination and cleo
tion matters, have been overwhelmed
by letters and inquiries regarding the
coming primaries and general cleo
ton. They declare, that from all
they have been able to learn, the cleo
tion in November will have the iarg-
est number of offices to fill since the
adoption of the present Constitution.
The multiplicity of offices is due
to the operation of the constitution
al amendments which abolished the
February election at which munich
pal officers were elected, and put
them in at the same time as the
county election.
No purely state officers are to be
elected this year, unless judges who
have to be commissioned by the
Governor are to be so regarded.
There will be thirty-one such Off
GERS to be elected, and in addition
twenty-one "lay" judges, or associ-
ate judges, will be elected in some
sixteen counties. The latter judges
are rapidly disappearing, and are
only known in smaller counties
which form part of a district.
Every county and every city will
have an election of municipal Of
ficers. All cities except those of
the second class and the three or
four like Lancaster, Lock Haven
and Franklin, which operate under
special charters, elect mayors. Dis
trict attorneys and county commits
sioners with numerous other county
officers are to be elected in each
county, while in cities, boroughs
and townships, all officers, even
down to election division officers
are to be elected.
In addition the first elections of
school directors under the new
school code will be held

$4,000 FnE ON
WILLOW AVENUE
Store Of William R. Knoll
Badly Damaged by
Flames
$3.50 INSURANCE CARRIED ON
STOCK AND FIXTURES; ONE
PERSON INJURED.

In an early morning fire Tuesday
in the store of William r. Knoll,
Willow avenue, the proprietor sus-
tanned a loss of $4,000, with insur-
ance of $3.50 on stock and fixtures.
The fire was discovered by Leon
ard Guckenberger, owner of the
building, who was returning home.
He saw the reflection of the fire up
on the wall and gave the alarm. A
garden hose was attached to the
hydrant of F. w. BunnelPs hotel,
nearby, and the fire was nearly sub
dued when the fire companies ar
rived
A line of hose was laid from the
fire hydrant at the foot of Church
street, across the Herman bridge to
the Guckenberger building. Hose
Company No. l arrived first and had
a stream on in a few minutes. This
company was followed by Protection
Engine No. 8 which company placed
another line of hose from the other
side of the plug. The Alert Hook
and Ladder company of Texas 2
were promptly upon the scene, fol-
lowed by Chemical Engine Company
No. of Texas.
The fire was soon extinguished.
L
damaged by fire, smoke and water.
Me. Guckenberger estimates his loss
at $500. He carries insurance to
the amount of $2,0 on the build
ing.
Mr.. Knoll, who lives in the P.
R. Murray tenement house near the
Herman bridge, stated Tuesday
morning that he did not hear the
gong and knew nothing about the
fire until called by a member of his
family. Mr.. Knoll claimed that at
one time he kept quantity of
matches under the counter and that
one box might have fell down where
mice or rats could have gnawed them
thus starting fire. He states that
other than this he has not the least
idea how the fire originated, as
there was no fire in the stove and
that is in a different part of the
store. He had moved from the Peil
building Main street a few months
ago and was securing a nice patron
age at the time of the fire. H9r
One accident occurred at the fire.
William Bunnell, son of F. w. Bum
nell, who was one of the first to as-i
sist in putting out the fire, used his
fist to gain an entrance in the store.
His hand, as a result, was badly cut
by the glass of the front window. 1t
was necessary for DR.. P. F. Griffin to
take several stitches in the injured
right hand to close the wounds. & D."

A MYSTERIOUS
DISAPPEARANCE
S. |. Mooney Of West
Virginia Last Seen in
Wayne County
COMMISSIONERS CLERK MIR.
ROSS GETS LETTER ASKING
ABOUT MISSING MAN.

S. l. Mooney, of Salem, West Vir-
ginia, who came to Wayne county
last Fall and secured employment
with a firm of contractors, has dis
appeared as mysteriously as if the
earth had opened up and swallowed
him.
Fearing foul play, his brother,
w. 7. Mooney, wrote to the Clerk of
the County Commissioners, George
P. Ross, asking for information
about his missing brother. The let
ter was written on stationery bear
ing the monogram of the Mountain
State Hotel, Salem, Virginia, under
date of July 81, 1911, and is as fol-
lows:
"Mr Clerk,
Wayne Co., Pa.
Dear Sir:
If you'll kindly remember
last Autumn, a bridge COM
pany was building viaduct or
bridge at Cold Springs in your
county. My brother, S. l.
Mooney, was working there
then in the latter part of Oc-
tober, and have not heard
from him since. l fear some
thing may have happened to
him there, or since going
away.
If you will send me the name
and home address of the bridge
company, and the name of some
business parties at Cold Springs
l shall be greatly obliged to
you for the kindness.
l remain, yours respectfully,
w. T. MOONEY"
The strangest part of the mys-
terious disappearance lies in the
fact that there was no bridge or
viaduct built at Cold Springs for
years. 1t is barely possible that the
missing Mooney was driving a team
or working on the state road for
the firm of Seamans, Irving and
Breneman.
If any reader of The Citizen
knows of the whereabouts of the
missing man, call up The Citizen
office, or write full particulars.
