The rules of the board of education on the subject state: ''The avoidance of ccr- poral punishment, as far as may be with a due regard to obedience on the part of pupils, is enjoned on all teachers Each case must be reported officially.
 But one of the school teachers of tha old regime had a most effective method of maintaining discipline. Below is the account as it is officially recorded in the report of the board of education for the fiscal years 1874-1S75:
 ''In September 1858, the board ordered that MT. Craig, the principal of the male school, be allowed 5 to purchase instru- mcnts for pulling teeth" The extraction of teeth was not punishment, but the toothache was such a common excuse for the neglect of lessons and for non- attendance at school that MT Craig came to the conclusion that the removal of the offending member was the best way of maintaining discipline. And 1t was astonishing" said the trustee who ex- plained this entry, 'It was astonishing to see the business he did. Odontalgia be- came so contagious or fashionable that Mir Craig soon filled quart cup, mora or less. with trophies of his dentistry"

 Green gold is used more than Roman or gold finish and is preferable because 1t does not tarnish, and gives the ap- pearance of two-carat gold. Engine turning, instead of engraving, pro- claims it's popularity in all the new pieces.

STAGGERING DEFEAT
 IN PENNSYLVANIA

Philadelphia, November 2.-The at- tempt to give women the right to vote met with staggering defeat in Pennsylva- nia today. How badly the little band of women who bravely campaigned the state and appealed to the men for equal rights at the polls were beaten will not be known until the slow work of count ing the votes is completed.
 Claims of the antis place the major ity against suffrage as high as 250,OO0.
 During the last few days of the cam paign women workers made almost fran tic efforts to gain support for the pro- posed amendments. In Philadelphia hun dreds of orators held forth on street cor ners and in halls. but their pleas fell on ears almost deaf, for returns show that in the central section of the city the ratio against the amendment was about 10 to 1. In one election district the vote was No. 23S; yes, O.
 In the state the vote in many sections was about even, while Allegheney county, especially Pittsburg, apparently gave a majority in favor of the amendment. Other districts, however, reported a ? to vote against it.
 The suffrage question cannot come be- fore the people again until five years hence under the state constitution.

Reformers Beaten

Philadelphia, November 2.-After a contest waged with great vigor by the reformers, the republican organiza lion won notable victory in todays muni- cipal election.
 Four years ago the reform candidate for mayor, Rudolph Blankenburg. de- feated the republican candidate, George If. Earle, by 495 votes, wrestling the control of the government from the re- publican organization after it held the reins for 90 years. Today the man se- lected by Blankenburg as his successor, George D. Porter, who was director of public safety in Blankenburgs ca binet, was defeated by from COCO to 70,0o0 plu- rality.
 Tie democratic candidate, B. Gordon Bromley. had less than 5000 votes in a total registration of 290,S00 a.
 Tonight the republican hosts are pa rading the streets with bands playing and banners flying in celebration of their return to power.

LOST TWO TO ONE
 IN MASSACHUSETTS

Boston, November 1.-The defeat of woman suffrage by vote of approxi- mately two to one was indicated by returns from the greater part of the state In the election today. With less than 100 precincts to be heard from the majority against the proposed con- stitutional amendment was 1OS,044.
 The suffrage leaders. conceding de- feat, declared that they would begin new campaign immediately. Mrs Gertrude Halliday Leonard, chairman of the execu+'ve committee of the Mas sachusetts Woman Suffrage associa- ton, made the following statement:
 "The returns indicate defeat for the suffrage amendment by two to one. This means that we have one out of every three men in Massachusetts who
