While graduates of the school have entered other schools and colleges with academic credits equal to those of fully accredited four-year nigh schools yet the lack of official recognition was always a handicap and particularly so in case of normal schools where, by a recent ruling of the state counsel, none but graduates of an accredited four-year high school could be enrolled. Realizing the injustice of the situation to the student body, the soard of directors and superintendent nave been working diligently to correct this fault and to this end have made radical changes in the high school as' weu as the personel of the faculty. Doctor Rule seemed well impressed with the school at this time, com-, menting favorably upon the changes that have taken place and incidentally remarking, "Coal Township is not as black as it is painted." The classification as a fully accredited fcI-yeaf high school will, no doubt, esult increased enrollment during the next semester. A number of students having unwillingly de-.

The unfortunate accident occurred during a visit here of the Seitzlnger's son-in-law and daughter, Mr. and Mrs. Cyrus Williston of Tamaqua. Mrs. Seitinger and Mrs.

Williston had Just completed packing Christmas boxes for two other daughters, one of them a resident of Philadelphia and the other living at Belle-fonte. The boxes had been placed on the floor in the dining room awaiting removal to the postofflce for shipment. The Williston children meanwhile had been romping about the room with a toy balloon. Thinking to play a Joke on the tots Mrs. Seitzinger asked her daughter, Mrs.

Willston whether she should stick the balloon with a piln. The latter acquiesced and as the balloon was tossed In the air Mrs. Seitzinger made a race for it. As she ran across the room she fell Mrs. Mary Karpinskie, mother of Mrs.

John Danilowski, 424 North Shamokin street, died at the home of another daughter, Mrs. Frank Bu-bence, at Kulpmont at 3:30 o'clock this morning. Mrs. Karpinskie was in her 84th year. It was recalled this morning by members of the Danilowskie family Members of Shamokin Lodge, No.

Comrade Holman, who was in good health despite his 87 years, died an hour after eating a hearty breakfast. He arose at 10 o'clock and ate breakfast. An hour later he was stricken and died soon after.

A member of the 48 Pennsylvania volunteers, Comrade Holman was with the late Captain Harry Reese, of this city, when the mine at Petersburg was blown up. He was also a prisoner at the Andersonville stockades for a considerable time, surviving the vigorous treatment to which the prisoners there were subjected. Comrade Holman enlisted as a young man at Pottsvllle and served three years of the war, figuring in several of the major engagements of that struggle. He was born at Providence, R. and with his parents came to the anthracite region when a boy.

At an early age he took up work about the mines and continued that occupation until several years ago. About 25 years ago he came here to reside, later taking up his residence at Ma-hanoy City. His wife died about 12 years ago. Comrade Holman was one of the five surviving members of the G. A.

Word was sent to the Ralpho company and the Tharptown company, both responding in addition to three other companies of the borough and township. Streams from hose of the Tharptown and Ralpho companies were soon playing on the blaze in the third story of the home to where the fire was successfully confined.

Other companies used chemicals to stop the progress of the blaze. The western section of the roof was burned off and the interior of the attic showed the ravages of the flames as did one room on the second floor. The fire started on one side of the chimney and may have been caused by a defective flue, though it was rot certain this morning whether that caused the fire or whether there as some other cause.
