The Philadelphia said, on Thursday, in an editorial on the judiciary of the State, that Judge Pearson was the only judge outside of Philadelphia, who had served continuously on the bench since tlie first election of judge in 1851.

This is a mistake. Hon. Robert J. Fisher, Preside at Judge of this District, was elected in 1851, and again in 1861, and in 1871 without any opposition in his party, and has served thirty years npou the bench with an ability and faithfulness not excelled by any judge in the Commonwealth. Opera House Monday Night Lovers of good music, both vocal and instrumental, should not forget to secure their tickets for the Grand Concert at the Opera House on Monday Night.

As stated before, the programme is a splendid one and will 1k rendered fintchsg on the occasion. The "Shadow Song" is one of the finest compositions ever written for the voice, and is always well received by both critics and general hearers. The duet "Master and Pupil is very amus ing and those who heard it as rendered by Mr. and Mrs. Mealy, say that it always "brings down the house." Diagram and tickets at Mundorfs News Stand.

See advertisement. Vacation Day. Vacation Days are at hand, when that great body of faithful workers and ser vants, the teachers in public schools, enter upon a short period of well-earned rest. How much they need it, how justly they are entitled to it, none know so well as those who have at some period of their lives labored in this vocation, than which none is more arduous aad exhaust ing to all the vital powers. The labors of our public school teachers are not generally appreciated as they should be, nor do they, as a class, receive the recognition at the hands of society and the public to which their important position and services entitle them.

The chil dren, too, who have studied faithfully, are deserving" rest rrom tneir mental labors, which they are now enjoying. Twenty Dollars Reward In another column will be found an advertisement of John S. Hiestand, who offers a reward of $20.00 for the arrest and conviction of the thief who stole a silver watch, Sic, from his residence on the Wrightsville pike, about three miffs from York. The particulars of this theft have already been published in the Dailt. Ou Thursday night Mr.

Hiestand's tool house was entered, and some of his best tools stolen. His mother's residence near by, was also again forcibly entered and a number of articles carried off. Both these thefts are Bupposed to have been committed by the same party or parties who committed the robberies on Monday night at the same places. As we stated before a young man named John Wesley whose appearance we described, is suspected of being the principle in both robberies. i-'k '-J TheVig-Uaut Festival.

The 101st anniversary Festival, of the Vigilant Steam Fire Engine Co. will commence this (Saturday) evening, June 4, the Farmer's Western Market House, and will be inaugurated by a parade of the company in full uniform.

The great event for the next seven days will be the Vigilant Festif al, which ojiens to-night at the Farmers' Market House, corner of Market and Penn street. To say that It will le an Imposing and grand affair would be merely repeating what every one acquainted with the Vigilant boys already knows.

The market house if now being splendidly arranged; and by to-night, when the festival ocns, and the whole place Is illuminated, visitors will imatrine themselves to be in one of those indescribable enchanted palaces pictured In the "Arabian Nights." It is but a pleasant walk to the Festival; but those who prefer to ride, can take the chariots from any part of town. See advertisement, in another column, and read it. T. M. C.

Your committee respectfully report; that they visited Gay and Penn Streets, here they intersect with the York and Hanover Short Line li. U. in conipuuy with the Chief Burgess, Borough Attorney, Borough Surveyor and Regulators for the purpose of thoroughly examining the frequeut complaints reaching the council that section.

We deem it but fair to Mate that the complaints citizens residing iu the immediate neigh-lKrhoHl are fully warranted, in view of the dangerous condition caused by the deep cut of tlie R. R. mentioned but are unable to recommend at this time a permanent improvement. However we have directed the erectiau of a fence or guard along Gay street the entire length of the cut, whlvh will lessen the existing danger to considerable extent and give time, to permit the consumation of plans that will brinir permanent relief to all parties interested. In relation to the water course of Pine Street your committee has come to tlie conclusion that the purchase of a course or the privilege to construct one, will involve less expense to the Borough than the rilling required to construct a natural channel.

We would therefore recommend that the committee in connection with the Chief Burgess be directed to negotiate with Mr. Calvin Parkhurst in reference to procuring the privilege of a water course over his premises and report the condition to this council at the next meeting. In conclusion your committee submits that the cleaning of all the high ways of the liorough nas reen completed Anthony Weaver. II. W.

Guothe. Com. Henht Shaffer, Fire Committee. Your Fire Committee to whom was referred the communication from the Laurel Fire Company, asking for an appropriation of $150. to be applied to the painting and frescoing of the Hall of the Engine House of said company, would respeetf nlly report, that we 'have given the matter consideration and investigation and find that it is the desire of the company to have its own committee to superintendent the job.

We further find that the appropriation asked for is only to cover part of the expenses connected with the improvement contemplated and that the company propose to pay out of its own trersury the additional amount necessary to complete the beautitication of their hall. In view of these circumstances the committee aban-dones the proposition entertained, to have the work done by contract under the supervision of the liorough authorities and recommends that the appropriation asked for be granted. In conclusion your committee would state that they have expected an insurance on the Union Engine House at the rate reported at last meeting in the Orient Insurance Co. James B. Schlosser, pm W.

H. RODEKHOCSE, t0m- Gas Committee. Your Gas Committee begs lewe to submit that they have caused the erection of two new lamp posts; one at the corner of Howard and Church alleys, and the other at the corner of South extended. They have also caused the necessary repairs to posts and lamps in various sections of the borough, reported to them by the officers, and have exercised with the aid of the police force Tl Ul- BUjU sujm, uuvu nu4 nni3ij idoiu, ui considerable saving to the Borough Treasury. W.

H. RODENHOUSE, p.TO Alex. Kidd, Lom- Police Committee. Your Police Committee would respectfully report that they have labored assiduously to systematize the actions of the police force; they have caused the printing of a regular record for the use of the Lieut, of Police, which sets forth the name, age, nativity, cause, discharge or commitment of every individual supplied with quarters or arrested by any of the policemen. They have likewise caused the rules and regulations govern -mg the police force and their actions to be printed and furnished each member of the body with a copy, so that there shall be no excuse in the future for any dereliction of duty.

In conclusion your committee deemed it necessary to give the several cells connected with the station house a thorough overhauling, most of the woodwork being destroyed by unruly prisoners, we caused them to be supplied with bunks and wains-coating, so arranged as to make future destruction at the hands of prisoners an impossibility. i eCom.

1 jun4 How the Work la Done. On Thursday a newsnaDer man report ed that a cart and two men were engaged by the borough authorities in repairing Market street between George ana uuke, and thus wasting the tax-payers' money, The fact is there were five carts, live horses and five men engaged in the hauling, and two men in spreading the stone for said repairs. We rather guess the young man uses hair oil in his, and couldn't wait to see further. N. B.
