The Streets off Heading. Reading continues to be a centre of solid and substantial wealth perhaps en joyed by no city twice its size in the State. lhe triennial assessment just concluded shows an increase of $1,444,536 over that made three years ago, to the credit ot a city where an increase in as sessment is always unpopular because the tax increases also, and the real estate valuation is now 32,656,925. The other side to this matter is the recent refusal of Reading' property holders to improve tneir lrontage by a system ot street improvements that would transfer tbe city from a period ox hity years ago to a modern condition. No city in tbe State bas worse streets and deserves better, if only on tbe ground that it can afford to nave them.

F. Owen, of the Reading City Passenger Railway company, ad dressed a communication to tbe county commissioners, requesting them to inform the company what the commission era considered "necessary to make tbe bridge safe for use both by the pnblic and the street railwpy company, and in wbat way it can best be accomplished, that the railway company can take such steps as may be required in the pre mises." Attached to tbe communica tion was the decision of the supreme court. The county commissioners replied that they had already indicated by their action in court and otherwise that as representatives and pnblic officials of the County of Berks, they do not "concede their right to occupy the bridge and therefore have no suggestions to make relative thereto." The commissioners also adopted a series of resolutions and sent copies to the railway company. These are the resolutions 'V tlKKKAB.

The case of the commonwealth against the Berks county commissioners was af hrr ed by the supreme court. This was a suit of Allen Schweyer, of Longswamp, to compel tbe commissioners to give him tne tax duplicate ot that district, as he had been duly elected tax collector there.

The county commissioners refused on the ground that his election was without authority ot law, and that he bad no right to demand the Longswamp dupli cates. Judge Jndiico decided in favor of Schweyer and the commissioners ap pealed, lhe supreme court says: "Since the adoption of the present Constitu tion the Legislature has sought to bring about uniformity wi th the administration of affairs of counties and townships, as well as those of cities and boroughs. "The Constitution reouires this, and we have felt constrained to interpret statutes relating to inetw siiojecis in tne ngux ot me Jonsututioa requirements. Thiw case is fairly ruled by Commonwealth vs. Me Kerr on and by Uuion vs.

Cuiulerland county. We have no intention to depart from the rules laid down in these cavea. The case of Lender vs. Kline was af firmed. This was a suit brought against sureties on a bond.

Orphans' court allowed Mrs. White $6,954.06 in the Harkin estate. The Supreme Court reduced tbe amount about $1,500. Livingood's appeal, orphans' court, affirmed. Judge Bland decided that a debt of $5,000 William H.

Livingood had owed a deceased brother was forgiven. Jacob and Michael Livingood appealed. The Supreme Court sustained Judge Bland. The bicycle turnpike case is still undecided. THE BIBLE IN SCHOOL A Lackawanna County Judge Decide that Its Reading; Illegal.

Fckanton, Pa, April 1. decision, to day, of Judge Gunster in the Waverly borough school case, the reading of the Bible in the public schools of Pennsylvania was practically declared illegal. A preliminary injunction was granted by Jndge Gnnster against Professor Hanyon, the principal of the Waverly borough schools, forbidding him to con duct religious exercises iu the school. A demurrer was taken by Professor Hanyon to the injunction, in which it was held that the court had no jurisdiction in the case, but the school directors alone bad the power to regulate the reading of the Bible in the public schools. Judge Gnnster dismissed the demurrer and ruled that the only question to be decided was one of law, and on that point there was no doubt.

In his opinion Judge Gunster said: "It is too plain for argument that denominational religious ex ercises and instruction in sectarian doctrines have no place in our system of common school education. They are not only not authorized by any law, common or statutory, bnt are expressly prohibited and forbidden by our constitution, the fundamental law of the Commonwealth." Quoting from the Constitution and acts of Assembly which comment thereon, Jndge Gnnster concluded his ruling as follows: "If it be true.aa declared in the bill, that Professor Hanyon is conducting sectarian or denominational exercises with the pnpils under his charge, whether these exercises be according to tbe form of the Methodist Episcopal church or of any other church, he ought to discontinue doing so, and it is the duty of the directors, if the abuse exists, to see that it is eradicated at once."

No Dog Tax to be Levied. The connty commissioners are giving out the books to make the spring assessment. The commissioners have instructed tbe assesscrs to levy no dog tax for tbe ensuing year 1st, op account of the fact that the tax levied last year will be suffi cient to pay lor the losses for both the last and this year; 2d, because the commissioners think it is unjust to collect the dog tax in tbe county when councils refuse to carry out the same law in this city.

The Dead Woman Identified by a Depot I Waitress of Mo bo a en. New Yobk, April 1. The father of Pearl Ivory went to the morgue this lore noon and examined the body of the murdered colored woman. He declared it was not his daughter. Tbe first really substantial clue was furnished by a woman employed in the waiting room of the Delawaie, Lackawanna and Western railroad, at Hobokeu.

Tbe woman arrived at the station house about 3 o'clock this afternoon, and was ushered into Captain Delaney's room. She talked with the police for half an hour, telling them what she knew about the supposed woman, and then she was take: to the morgue. She was led into the room where the corpse was lying, and said mediately, 'That's she." Afterward she was taken into a side room, where she made a lengthy statement. DeteC' tive Nugent afterwards informed tbe re porters that the woman was Madora Robinson, a lady's maid at Hoboken the Delaware, Lackawanna and We tern railroad. Madora is a colored woman.

She said that last Tuesday the dead woman came into the depot on the 10.17 a. m. train from Newark. She got into conversation with her and learned that the dead woman had come from Heaths ville, near Fredericksburg. Sh had gone into service as a cook in small town not far from Hoboken, bu not liking the work, came to New York 1o seek employment.

The dead woman told Mdora that she was icoiug to acquaintances on Thompson street, this city, lhe number Madora could not re member. This was the first real information leading to locate tbe crime. A careful search of Thompson street is now in progress. Madora said she could not tell the dead woman's name, but that could he easily learned by telegraph ing to Meattisvi 1 1 te. DEATHS.
