and Mrs. Benjamin Krause of New-side, a teacher at Hoffmans School, who was confined to her famili' home since Feb. 18. due to an attack of scarlet fever, has recovered, snd the family was released from quarantine yesterday. The school had been closed the first two weeks following her Illness and the building was disinfected.

The school reopened the third week in charge of Agnew Kern of Sehnecks-ville. There still remain 42 days' school out of an eight months' term to be taught during spring. Miss Krause will resume teaching Monday. a FINE ARItAY OF STAB KEITH ACTS THE OFFERING FOR NEXT WEEK. The bill at the Orphoum for the present week will conio to a close with the final performance to-day.

The reception given by the ponies on Saturday afternoon to the children was one grand affair, and the i -i 1 CHARLES L.

With the opening performance Mon dav afternoon, there will be ushered in, without a doubt, the best comedy bill of the season. Messrs. Wilmer Vincent have spared no expense to ob tain the best vaudeville for the the atre-goers of and a visit to this popular vaudeville house next week will prove that their efforts have not been in vain. Topping the great bill will be an act that will Drobably prove one of the greatest novelties ever seen in the way of a vaudeville attraction. "Christmas at Higgins" is a rural comedy sketch from the pen of Evelyn Weingardner Blanchard, who is one of tiie best writers of present-day vaudeville sketches, telling a story at times pathetic, at times humorous, with finish that never fails to surprise and delight the audience.

"Christmas at Higgins" is presented by a. cast of un equaled excellence, with all special scenery, lighting effects and proper ties. The entire scenic equipment and properties used are carried by the com pany and the snowstorm and trans formation scene are only two of- the- many surprises that this act presents. Rowland, the Brainstorm Juggler, will be seen in an ecentrlc act of his own versatile creation, besides dexter ously peeling off a lot or tricks and feats of original 'buffoonery. He does a funny pantomime act that keeps the audience convulsed with laughter.

There is not a dull moment in Row land's act from the time he makes his appearance until his exit. There are any number of singing and talking comedians, but in Bartell Garfield, whom we have with us next week, we have the cream of them MARIE DE VECCLIO AS SiAMAN-THA IN CHRISTMAS AT HIGGINS. all. They have a wealth of new and witty sayings and parodies that have made audiences all over the country, where they have appeared, to demand encores. They will surely become greaf favorites with Orpheum patrons during their visit in Allentown.

The Orpheoscope, with a change of pictures Monday and Thursday, is showing the product of the foremost manufacturers of both Europe and A merica.

More Pen returned to work at the Pethlehem steel plant yesterday, and over 6000 men are now employed. Before the trouble 8100 men were em ployed.

Of that number 1500. it is said, have left town. The force of men in No. 6 shop was greatly increased yesterday. Last night a double turn was placed at work in the finishing yards of the Saucon plant and on Sunday night a double turn will begin work in the Gray mill.

Chairman Williams of the strikers' E.xeutive Committee denied the ru mor that Ethelbert Stewart, the repre sentative of the Department of Com merce and Labor, was barred Thurs day from the meeting of the strikers in the Municipal Building. Yesterday the Executive Committee and Mr. Stewart held a conference at the Hotel Majestic that lasted three hours. The incidents that led up to the strike were discussed. The fourth of the secret sessions of the strikers was held yesterday in the Municipal Building.

The force of deputies at the steel plant has been reduced, according to Deputy Sheriff R. O. Wollmuth. The expense of the ferce has been reduced $100 a day since last Saturday, when the cost of maintaining the force was $338 per day. Owing to the extended demands of the striking employes of the plant, covering 4000 words, which President Schwab refused to consider for reasons stated at the time, Commissioner Stewart, who was sent on by the Department of Commerce and Labor to investigate strike conditions, found it necessary to ask for assistance, and two clerks were sent on.

Mr. Stewart is reticent, as all information concerning his reports, he declares, must emanate from the Department of Commerce and Labor. HUNTING THE FORGERS. Several citizens w'hose names were published in the Bethlehem papers as having signed the petitions for the removal of the State Police have declared that they never signed or authorized the signing of their names on the petitions. Affidavits were taken by Fred Bohnlng and Ban Gangwer and sworn to before Justices Getter and Bloom, that they did not sign the petition.

An Investigation is being made Efnd the men who forged the names, if apprehended, will be dealt with according to law. ARRESTS BY TROOPERS. Thursday evening the strikers board ed before Justice W. F. Bloom and rode to Hellertown and thus kept employes of the Steel Company residing In that borough from riding home.

Some of the workmen went to the union xepot ana roue nume uu iiih Philadelphia Reading evening train. The Transit Company road officers, when they learned of the actions of the strikers, sent the borough limits cars to Hellertown. but few workmen rode them, many deciding to walk in preference. At Iron Hill members of the State Constabulary ordered a lot of foreigners from the cars. On New Street several strikers pulled the trolley poles frem the cars.

They were warned by the conductors that if they did not desist they would be arrested. The warning had its effect. John Gallagher was arrested by Trooper L. A. Boyd, on the charge of being drunk and disorderly.

The accused was ordered to move, and when he did not comply Trooper Boyd used his riot stick. Gallagher was arraigned before Justice W. F. Bloom and paid the costs. The accused had a flask of whiskey on his person when arrested.

Sergeant Herbert Smith arrested Adam Meckla at his home on the charge of surety of the peace, preferred by George Maiichek. a call man employed at the puddle mill. The latter, it is alleged, was told by Meckla that if ihe went to work he woud kill him. The accused was arraigned before Justice Bloom and entered bail in the sum of $500 for his appearance at the next term of Court. INDIGNANT TAXPAYER.

A South Bethlehem taxpayer is out with the following communication: "I was astonished in reading the proceedings of our South Bethlehem Town Council. Have we taken a step backward from civilized law and order? It would appear so from the report of some of our citizens. We have in our midst an organized body of men known as the State Constabulary, wh have given entire protection to our best class of people, such as are law-abiding and peaceable. Thousands are to-day earning their bread at the Bethlehem Steel Co. only through this body of men called Now our Town Council is asking the sheriff to remove them from our midst.

The very day they would be removed riots would be the daily occurrence. -Threats lhave repeatedly been made, 'Wait until the troopers Can our members of Town Council not see through it? They must be viewing the situation from the wrong viewpoint. Daily as saults are reported along the outskirts of our town, where the troopers do not patrol. Is this not an example of what would happen should they be sent away? Thousands would be at the mercy of hundreds again lying along the route towards the mill gates and many hungry children would be tho sufferers. Again, why are a few out siders, non-residents, given the use of our public hall in the Municipal Building? These non-residents have become so bold as to order our faithful taxpayers out of the hall simply because they do not think and act as they do.

Our Town Council listening to an agitator who is paid for his 'blather by the day, that is certainly the limit. Councllmen. bewaro." OLD MAN BEATEN. A gang of 10 or 12 strikers' pickets this morning fell on Timothy Boehler, zinc works employe, on the theory that he was a steel worker. He was brutally beaten after his dinner pail had been torn from him.
