divorce Mr.. Gould went abroad and
married an actress OF the same fam

two were not related.
The matrimonial troubles of Miss
Anna Gould, jay Gould's youngest
daughter, filed columns of space in
the newspapers some years ago. Her
marriage in 1895 to Count Boni de

MEXICO city, an. 21.-The vol
cano Of Mount Colima is again in VIC
lent eruption, and Is pouring forth
its volumes OF lava with great force.
Such word has been received from
Guadalaiara, which stated that the
volcano began its eruption suddenly,
killing hundreds OF cattle and horses
that were grazing at the foot OF the
mountain.
II is feared that the Inhabitants Of
Cludad Gusman, two miles away,
were killed as no word has been
heard from them, A relief train sent
to the scene was halted by the mass
es of lava and boulders, and it is diff
icult to tell when it will be able to
proceed on ITS Journey.
The ashes are falling over Guada-
~lajara, a hundred miles from the
mountain. Ashes and sand cover the
neighborhood of the volcano to a
depth of three of four feet.
The residents of the villages near
by, fearing an earthquake, are fleeing
and it viii not be long until that sec
ton is entirely %depopulated.
The thunder of the eruptions sound
like the discharge Of heavy cannons,
and the earth IS trembling. The crops
within 4 radius Of ten miles OF the
volcano are ruined. The general loss
is already estimated at millions of
dollars.

Heat Goina to Waste.
supt. Morton called attention to the
fact that much coal was being wasted
this mild weather by the janitors OF
the school buildings keeping up as big
fires In the heaters as they would in
real winter; and as a consequence the
heat being turned Off at the radiators
the heat passed out through the fues

To Remodel School.

President Barton remarked that it
was high time to make arrangements
for the remodeling of the Burke St.
school building that was decided on
some months ago. He said every
thing should be gotten in shape so
that the work could be commenced
Just as soon as the schools close early
next June, and finished by the time
of the opening OF the next term in
September, To this end he suggested
that bids for the work be invited in
the near future, the plans of Archi-
tect J. w. Woltz, of Waynesboro, Pa,
having already been approved. Com
missioner Kuhn said that he would
like to have included in the remodel
ing proposition a cess pool and toilets
in the basement of the building
which, he thought, would not be such
a heavy additional outlay. He was
then instructed to see Architect
Volt next week when he goes to
Waynesboro and have him make an
estimate on the proposed improve
ment. The board members all
thought it was time to be up and do
ing.
Commissioners Siler asked that a
carload of finely crushed stone be pur-
chased for use in the back yard of the
High Street school which is very
muddy nDw. He was authorized TO
get the stone.
