KCRANTON, PA, NOVEMBER 23, 100S ROBBING ril.l.ARS. Vrom the statement made by Inspector P. J. Moore, of the Bureau of Wines, in a letter to The Republican, It would appear that the first thing to do in protection of the aarth's surface from further caves, it to prevent robbing of pillars, where it can be shown that such removal will cause a disturbance of the surface. That there is always danger of this distur bance where excavations leave but a thin crust overhead is too wellknown to need repetition.

Certain rules are observed in leaving pillars, but these are adjusted to conditions, both as to the nearness of the surface, the presence of large buildings, or many structures overhead, the consistency of coal, as to its strength and durability, and other conditions. No one mine can be a guide to another in these matters. For Instance, a local company here has left as high as forty six per removing but little more than half the coal from the vein lying closest to the surface where many buildings were located. In another case the same company mined all but twenty per cent, of the coal as the conditions were such that it was permitted. In general it is' said that the companies are now using greater cace than ever before in the protection of he fcfcrth' surface.

The offenders were those" who "did mining earlier in Its history and who often removed all the coal from some of the veins where it would produce caves. CORRUPTED YOl'THS. Nothing more hideous in criminal annals has been recorded recently than the murder of the old man in Vine land, N. by three bad boys, none past eighteen years of age. The story, is one that has its awful lesson, npt only for parents, but for municipalities, as it shows the distinct menace that gangs of bad youths are to the safety of the community.

These three boys, one, the grandson of William Read; an old man who had been in the habit of fatuously display ing sundry broad gold pieces that he treasured, went to his room while the other members of the family were out deliberately beat him and finally shot him to death. The affair was care fully planned, and the young crim inals have confessed to a share in it. One of the most significant features in tifce case is that none of these boys come from the vagrant class the ne glected, degenerate, unfortunate element that natunfiiy drift into crime. They are all the children of respect able, hard working parents. For a Ion time, however, they have been marked es bad boys in their home town.

They could not retain positions because they were always stealing. They did not want to work, but belonged to a san? that spent most of tne time In reading flssfoy novels and going to se plays end picture shows that if not posi tively immoral were demoralizing. It is very evident that somebody had some responsibility for their evil ways that are fast ieading toward the elec Trie chair, for there is little probability that they will escape its shadow In New Jersey. It will place them be yond the power of contaminating others. There are a great many parents in this city who have just as 'little.

of where their b'jys and girls spend the time outside, of the! homes, as apparently thes? Yineiand parents had regarding the movement of this trio of 'criminals. The oth day two little boys r.nt more than ten years old were ovristard in a con versa lion a thy pissed down Lacka wanna avenue. "Did yiu that Stanford White and Evelyn Thaw show?" nUed ono, eagerly. "You bet!" replied the other "Gee! wasn't it great! end there's duo on now pretty near as good." As good! and that where a feat many llttlf boy and girls or? Martin? ahrig path that will leud them to prison cells ur disgrace S'liiif )ily. is.

ri' lor this. Civl'liictioii Is ail wrong In the tencral way it deals with the question youth in towns and cities. The boys are permitted to go on. (rowing wore and worse, until their inefficient and irresponsible parents have them sent to a reformatory. It is usually a reformatory, victim that comes home to corrupt all the other boys with whom be comes In contact.

It was a reformatory girl who came home recently to Wilkes Barre and as a result several young girls under fourteen are utterly ruined by her influence, There should be something done in other ways something that will prevent these unfortunate children who are badly reared from going so far that they can never be reclaimed. It is a great problem, but it could be solved by municipal farms and workshops where the restless boys could have their energies well, instead of ill directed, while learning useful trades. The State institutions fall, because the boys are usually sent away after they are ruined enough to have contact with worse youths to complete the process. Municipalities could keep up smaller institutions and make them self supporting at the same time they are making good citizens. There is a deal of misconception regarding compulsory school laws.

Everyone of these young murderers in New Jersey, had long ago refused to go to school. There are numberless boys in this community who do just the same, and yet who cannot be made to work under the law, when "work would be the best possible thing for them. A school eity, where manual labor went hand in hand with study would often solve the problem. That Is the best sort of a college that is most needed in Scran The Magyar population of Lackawanna county is sufficiently numerous to maintain several societies that propose to celebrate on Thanksgiving day the presentation of an American flag that they recently received. No race of can better appreciate the liberty that is symbolized by the American flag than the Magyars, who are one of the oldest nations' of A Europe.

There is one defeated candidate for congress in the western part of the state who is not permitting his defeat to worry him. His campaign expenses amounted to ten cents. POLITICAL LESSONS. It is interesting to note the political lessons that may be drawn from the drama. There' is a play now being produced in this city that seems based upon political conditions as they are presented in several municipalities of this country.

This play deals wtth the reign the boss, with unlimited graft, and with the ease with which the may be deceived in public work, great fortunes being accumulated through gross evasion of public duties. Tne lesson of this "piay, which ts perhaps the greatest political deliverance that has ever been heard from the stage is that the people should see it that they choose their public servants with more care and men in public office should not pay too close heed to their fellows who set them selves up as dictators and who profess to have the power to make and break men at will. That really is a power that no man can monopolize In the face of an awakened public conscience. Broadhurst has made that clear in "The Man of the Hour" and the lesson that he has taught has been so helpful that It is said to have affected conditions for the better in many cities of America. Scranton in the past has had its "Lexowing." There was a time" when.

graft in public life was so common that it attracted little attention, ex cept from the men who were run down by the "steam roller" of the boss. To some degree dishonesty may yet crop out in municipal affairs, but it dares not flaunt itself in the face of the pub lic and whenever it becomes known it is uprooted so quickly that men who are workingor a better class of muni cipal servants are greatly encouraged. AX INTERESTING TEST. An interesting test of the new tele scopic sight intended for use in the army was recently made by Captain K. K.

V. Casey on the District of Co lumbia rifle range, under the auspices of the military publication, Arms and the Man. Captain Casey is generally considered the best long distance shot in the country and his work with the telescope sight is pronounced wonder ful. He used a model of 1903 rifle and shot at 1.760 yards, or Just one mile, firing on a regulation target at the 1,000 yards' butts. Both the range and the sight were unfamiliar to Captain Casey and the ground on which he lay was unsuitable to firing and approximated rough sen ice conditions.

He got the range at the first shot and stayed on the target throughout a string of twenty shots with tlte wind about 22 miles un hour. In the course of a long and careful report Captain Casey says the sight as now placed r.n the gun is In a position that makes It practically useiess from a military standpoint, so ho moved It forward two and one half Inches during the test. He advances a number of other criticisms of. technical value as a rervlco sight, not only for the sharpshooter but even for the general" run of men In line of battle." Ha also says: "It certainly will en ablu a man to be more certalnj? his hold and prevent errors of impropsr sighting. With the regulation servlco sight it waa Impossible, oil of THE CCOAIiTON REPUBLICAIT.

7EDJESDAY NOVEMBER, 1CC1 intervening leaves and undergrowth. to see the 'target over th sights, but with telescope sights the target could be seen sufficiently well to sight on, thus showing the advantages of the telescope sight in cover." Captain Casey is the present holder of the Wimbledon and Leech cups, the most famous trophies in the country for long distance shooting with the military rifle. Summer In the winter time is a rather novel experience, but certainly this region has been favored with remarkable weather during the past few days. i END OF 11 RE DAMP. Experiments that should greatly in terest people in thW city and vicinity as well as elsewhere in Pennsylvania, have been undertaken in F.

anc, by which it is believed the problem of overcoming the deadly fire damp has been solved. It will be recalled that In the hor rible Courrieres disaster several monrhs ago, many lives were lost and the theory was advanced as it was al so in a more recent disaster in "West Virginia, that the' accnmulation of coal dust was Ignited by blasts and pro. duced a terrific explosion. In the experiment a fac s'mile of the chamber was prepared and was definitely proved that coal dust can produce Just such a disaster. It was also demonstrated, that the dust, mixed with forty percent, of schist failed to explode and no fire resulted, with the deadly fumes.

If this can be assured it should result that no more of the Shocking fatalities that always attend one of these great explosions will occur. 'Further investigations In France are to be pursued by the sup' port of the government and the exam? pie might well be Imitated in this country, as it would be Just as effective probable as the pursuit of the corpora' tions after the accident occurs. ENGLAND'S UPREPAREDNESS. It has affected the world with sur prise to be told by as great an author ity as Lord Roberts, of Boer war fame, that England would be in a sorry state if Germany should attack her at the present time. England Aas so long been considered mistress of the seas that her exposed position has never seemed to entail dangers to her from attack, but the necessity of a larger land force to protect her at this time is emphasized by the dis tinguished Field Marshal.

It was pointed out that Germany has' an enormous body of soldiery that could be transported" at brief notice from her ports and that Great Britain has neglected the most ordinary pre cautions against, an Invasion, of thls kind. aafllt. Jei years created the greatest sea power next to England's that the world has ever known. Lord Roberts estimated that a million men should be added to Great Britain's army without delay and his resolution calling for lmme diate attention on the part of the Government to the strengthening of the nation's safeguards was adopted. With Germany irritated and restive under the recent alleged indlS' cretlons of the Emperor, and with France bristling in more or less dis content, and then with the Turkish problem still affording unpleasant phases, the statement that England would be in ill shape to invite war brings a new element into the situation the outcome of which will be await' ed with Interest, particularly as Great Britain can hope for but cold assist' ance from either her Canadian or her Australian colonies.

Down In Delaware county there were two hundred and sixty four persons registered in one district, and. the offi cials are proudly pointing to the recond of having two hundred and sixty three voters out at the polls. The defection of the two hundred and sixty fourth man Is apologized for by the explana tion that he couldn't get away to vote. as he was in jail. Conditions were slightly different 'In Lackawanna county, where a great many, who did vote apparently should have been in jail.

An Amherst college professor Is re ported to have sold hi head for ten thousand dollars, the head to be delivered to the scientists after death. Prof. John Mason Tyler is the man. Surely, he must be of the opinion that there is something in that head. New York would honor itself by electing EUhu Root United States senator.

That state is truly in need of a big man In Washington. What 1 a strong pair of senators Root and Roosevelt would make. Mr. Bryan is trying to explain In the Commoner why it was that he was defeated. Such an explanation was hot needed.

It is very clear that he was beaten because he does not enjoy the confidence of the country. Mr. Carnegie has ranged himself on the side of the free trader. He Is not an expert on this subject, therefore tisi opinlon should arry no more weight than that of any other man. Apparently Speaker cannon Is now much more enthusiastic for tariff re vision than he was before he tieard of that opposition from New Svr.ntor Penrose has ranged hlmseff on the side of the men who are work Ing earnestly for the abolition of all the toll roads in Pennsylvania.

"This life aint so much of a cinch as some folks think, yawned the taxi cab chauffeur as he cranked up his machine. "It ain't so bad in the daytime for I don't have much of anything to do, and anyway I'm asleep, but the nights! Gee! Maybe you don't think this is getting to be a rapid village. Well, sir, it only begins to whoop her up after midnight. The number of folks that start out to go around Lake Scranton after 12 o'clock is a caution to cats. They keep going around Lake Scranton until six in the morning.

That's why I'm mostly asleep in the daytime." Now that the Christmas shopping is about to begin and should beg)n, parents should realize the importance of exercising care in taking their children into crowded stores and cars. Scarlet fever and other diseases afford cause for alarm as much fatality seems to be present, and the fact that they continue In various localities is an In dication that people are very negli gent regarding the regulations of the board of health. It Is to the credit of Dr. Keller and his assistants that every precaution is being taken to prevent the dissemination of contagious dis ease, but it would need a special offi cer with an ax at every door where some people live to make them use any care about spreading disease. Neighbors and observers of these indifferent residents should Inform tb department for the protection of the community.

iimusemente ThaBkaaivIng Amusement. It Is 'a wellknown fact that per sons attend the theaters Thanksgiving, Christmas and other holidays who nev er see the Inside of a playhouse dur ing the remainder of the year, and it was with this in mind that Joseph Hart's brilliant musical fantasy, 'Tol ly Pickles' Pets in Petland" was se cured to head this week's bill at the Poll. Persons who spend! part of the great holiday at the city's home of imudoville will find something on the programme to touch the spot no mat ter now exacting their taste may The advance sales for both perform ances tmorrow are very heavy and the management advises Its regular patrons to lose.no time in securing' their seats. Evening prices will pre vail at the matinee. "Polly Pickles' Pets" will appeal especially to the children whose par ents send them to tomorrow's performances.

A cat, a dog, a Teddy bear, an elephant and1 a parrot have promtnent parts In the piece and there Is something doing every minute1 from the time the curtain rises until the strains of the last musical num ber dies away.

Aaother Large Aadience. A most appreciative audience last night applauded vigorously the trying moments, in tne 'aian. oi mr which is playing a week engagement at the Lyceum theater. Miss Harriets Ross, who was the reason lor tne midnight marriage at the Jermyn the first minute of today, was recognized' and she was the object of much applause. Her efforts as Mrs.

Bennett, the good woman who guides her son, the mayor, through the trying times of reforming a' corrupt political machine, are really above the ordinary. She figures in the scene where her son breaks the news to her that his father was a grafter, that he had obtained his money by dishonest meth ods. In this scene. Miss Ross gives a nnrimvnl of emotions that is recognized as possessing artistic feel ing. John S.

Robertson as Alwln Ben ntt. the mayor, scored as heavily as he did when he played to the first irhters. James A.
