IRON 1854, when | was four years old, until 1864,

pioneer days; for during that tenyear period never
saw a railroad train.
We had district school near our house and It

there was new departure We were to be modernzed.
A Young woman who had attended a normal school
somewhere was employed and the oldtaShloned system
was revolutionized She declined to board around and
also required the township trustee TO provide anor

neghborhood was as TO who would get the job of making
fires each morning and keeping the SChoolhouse clean

Washington, May 23.--W. p. Boland
of the Marion Coal company, Scranton,
Pa, author of the charges which have
threatened to cause the impeachment OF
Judge Robert w. Archibald of the Court
of Commerce, today told his story to
the House Judiciary committee. Boland
declared he had become convinced that
the coal railroads in Pennsylvania were
using Judge Archibald and that 1T was
not the exception but the rule that
Judge Archibald was willing to serve
the railroad
The witness related the history of his
fight against alleged determinations by
the railroads and asserted that on one
occasion f. +. Loomis, vice president OF
the Lackawanna railroad, said to him,
you have the devils nerve to attempt
to sell coal along our lines" Boland
referred to the case in which the Marion
Coal company was defendant in 1883 in
Judge Archbald's court. He said that
about this time he tBolandl made com

Notes on the Game.
Owing perhaps to the impending show
eI, the number of Spaulding rooters was
unusually small In fact the enthu-
siasm manifested at the Goddard Spauld-
ing games in years past was altogether
lacking After the outcome of yester-
days game, the attendance will doubt
less increase.
Bone" Carroll and Bishop each played
a half game in the left garden These
seminary utility men are faster than
the ordinary prep. school outfielders.
Which goes to show that Goddard has
an abundance of material for the three
fielding positions.
Tomasi contributed one spectacular
catch but the lustre of his feat was
somewhat obscured by bad error at
V very next turn.
Stuart's miss of MerrilPs roller in
the first looked rathAr unpromising, but
Bills errors are only accidents and hap
pen rarely.
Hagan and 0gston held down the first
and third sacks like professional
men.
Coach Kurtzs braves have not dropped
preparatory school game this year.
They are rapidly forging their way to
the front in the race for the champion
ship
Nelson Brown pulled down two high
ones in deep left field. The youngster
showed better form than in any other
game Of the season and he is coming
all the time
Milne showed deplorable weakness
in gauging his throws and costly hesve
over Hagan's head was contributing
factor in Spauldings defeat. He shows
flashes Of ability, however, and with
larger experience he can make a good
baekstop for the high school.
With clouds threatening before the
game started, both managers should have
eounseled postponement.
