BY the Ex-CommitteemAn

Joseph S. Mclaughlin. Direct
or of Supplies in the cabinet of
Mayor Smith, last night withdrew
as a Mayoralty candidate for the
primaries on the Republican ticket
in Philadelphia.
He announced that he would be
an independent. candidate at the
general election in November no
matter who won the Republican
nomination.
His Swan Song in the Republican
primaries was an attack upon both
Congressman j. Hampton Moore and
Judge John NJ. Patterson as men,
who, no matter which was elected,
would be true and grateful to the
boss responsible for his election.
Congressman Moore is leaving the
halls of Congress at the behest Of
Senator Penrose," Mr.. MacLaughlin
said, and Judge Patterson is leav-
ing the bench lat the behest of SEN
ator Ware"
Cause why they believed they
should not be ousted from office for
gross negligence" was filed with the
Snyder County Court by the sur
charged Monroe Township Board of
School Directors through their at
torneys, Ulrich and Potter.
The principal bone of contention
is that their former secretary, Ira
]. Heiser, is the real culprit, and
that the other members of the board
are being surcharged s5,296.24 be-
cause they trusted Heiser too far.
In the one item of s2,500, which
they are surcharged, the Board OF
Directors consisting of Frank Fisher,
W. o. Kochran. William Frymire
and George Jarrett take consolation,
because they believe they have made
out clear case againts Ira ]. Heiscr
that he took the amount.
The York county good roads
loan was carried by a vote of 6,S45
to 4,204, a majority of 2.641. The
city people voted 1,60S for the loan
and LII against it. while the
boroughs voted 2,Sso for the loan
and 1905 against it. and the
boroughs 2.709 for the loan and
2,0Ss against it. The vote was light.
OF the thirty-fve boroughs in the
county there were but eight which
voted against the loan.

or the many puzzling tricks ana
games that may be played with pins
or matchsticks, know Of none that
is so deceptive in appearance OF sim
plicity as the following:
Arrange 10 pins, matches or tooth
picks in three clusters Of three, four
and eight. You play by turns to see
who will be compelled to take the
last pin. The first player takes away
as many pins as he wishes from any
one pile. Then the opponent re-
moves as many as he wishes from
one pile, and so on until the last
PLAYER loses-for example. A takes
three from first pile, B takes four
from last pile. A takes three and B
takes four. which leaves but one for
A. The first player should win. but
what is his best way to begin the
game?
ANSWER TO No. 2iO.
The problem is solved by a rule
which produces a rght-angled tri-
angle-the given side being an odd
number, viz:
Square the number-i7 times a.
equal 2.20s. This separate into two
numbers-one a unit greater than
the other. Answer. a.: i.t0i: iiO5.
