ASSOCIATED PRESS DIsPATCH]


 WASHINGTON. Feb. 4.-Despite the fact that the author of the principal charges of corruption in the election of Senators Watson and Chiffon of West Virginia withdrew today his allega- tions the senate elections committee may proceed with the investigation This because of the fact that each of the senators submitted today to the committee a statement in defense, in- stead of presenting it to the senate.
 The committee holds that if it con- siders the explanations of the two sen atCrs it must also hear the statements of the other side while, if they make the statements the senate can decide whether to order a further Considera- tion
 After considering the case today the committee recessed until Saturday to await the action of the two senators who expressed themselves as undecided what course to persue. L. G. Shock, a member of the West Virginia house of delegates who made a statement that he had been paid 5000 and offered more to vote for Watson and Chiffon, pre- scented to the committee today a state ment that his declaration was an effort to advance the candidacy of John Me Graw, rival to Senator Watson. The statement had been included in the petition for an investigation filed by Governor Glasscock and other West Virginians. Both the West Virginia senators presented the committee with complete denials of the charges which they branded as absurd.

The wind was blowing a gale and being
large and high out OF the water she was
hard to manage. Being helpless after one

4O4-
Estimate for High School 1914 100
There are so grade pupils and 5 high
school pupils from U. P. Neck Township,
~ highischaol pupils from Oldmans and
l from L. P. Neck Township for which
the Borough gets pay.
There will be nine graduates this year
the largest class from Penns'Grove High
School; l in the classical, 8 in the Latin
scientific and 5 in the commercial course.
Two intend to go to college, | to teach,
2 to attend business college and 4 to re-
turn to Penns Grove school next year.
There will be about % to graduate from
tile grammar school and 26 intend to en-
ter the high school.
The average daily attendance is better,
but below normal because of sickness.
Days present during March So, DOG, alb
sent 2,2O9 hours, tardy lO6, truancy 2.
Fire drills have been held and the pu-
pills have left the building in 80 seconds.
Work in the grades is progressing nicely,
also the manual training in the 9Th grade
and departmental work in the 9th grades.
FOOD o THOUGHT
1t should be considered that there are
493 pupils enrolled in the present build
ing corner of North Broad and Harmony
Streets, 81 in the Baptist Chapel on State
Street and IS in the small annex in the
rear of the chapel with Al seats. Twenty
four began school last week.
Last September 81 began school and it
is probable that as many more will begin
next September.
With the building of a new school
house on the lot now owned by the Board
of Education there will be more thar 900
children at one center with less than an
acre and a half of play ground and street.
The completion of a building there
with nine rooms will provide for 20t
more children making more than 800 in
that locality.
There is a garage opposite the school
house. A resident recently went up
Harmony street in an automobile, when
school was not in session, and had to
stop his machine for fear of running ovel
children.
1t is for parents to consider wllethe
they want their children educated under
those conditions.
