It will be with regret that the friends of Jerome Wetheiby, of Wayne street, will learn that he Is confined to his bed by another attack of appendicitis and an operation will be necessary to relieve his sufferings.

Mr. Wetherby was formerly mdnager of a novelty store In Schenectady, Y. During the month of May he suffered a similar attack, but recovered sufficiently to be able to be removed to the homo of his sister, Mrs. A. II.

Jones, of this city. Last week he suffered a strain and since that time he has grown steadily worse. Yesterday Dr. S. S.

Shields, In consultation with Dr. II. C. Wheeler, decided that an operation will bo the only means of relief, and the patient will be removed to Dr. Wheelei's private hospital, where he will bo treated.

Mr. Wetherby has many friends, who hope for his speedy rc-cove-y. 'POCK' PADDEN'S CASE. Patrick Padden has been causing more trouble for the poor board and his case resulted In a rangle between Directors McCabc and Rlvenburg at last evening's meeting. Here Is where the hitch came.

Mr. McCabe is very much opposed to doing anything for Padden, because he claims he Is a professional vagrant. He has run away from Danville, the Hillside Homo and the Poor Farm. The chairman said ho would not sign a warrant for palng the hospital bill, but the other directors seemed to think that Rlvenburg had done all right In sending him to the hospital. Padden was examined by two physicians on Saturday and was adjudged of unsound mind.

He will be taken to Danville today. A POOR GAME. About 2,000 persons assembled nt Duffy's field yesterday afternoon to witness a game of base ball between the Browns, of South Scranton. and "Nick" Murtha's Pets, of Carbondale. The boys from the city played exceptionally poor.

Cuff, the pitcher, and Walter Loftus, the catcher, were the only ones who knew anything about the game. Notwithstanding their poor playing they were defeated by a score of 11 to 7 In favor of the Scranton boys. The feature of the game was the bad Judgment exercised by Carey, of Scianton. Nine Innings were plaved. Umpire Gordan was frequently applauded for his Judgment.

McIIale, the shortstop, was not In condition. WILL NOT MOVE. There was great relief felt In this city on Saturday when Postmaster J. H. Thomas returned from Washington.

McIIale, the nsslstant piinclpal, bo Increased Jo per month, and also the same increase In tho salary of Miss Katie Walsh. In ngaid to hiring a truant officer, the name of Joseph A.

Before nny notion was taken on the teport, the following communication was teceived fiom the auditors: "To tho Honoiable School Board of tho Boiough of Olyphant: "Slis: We find in going over your woik for the past year that you have exceeded jour expenditures to the amount of S1.0S7.47, nn nmount not figured up closely or It would come to note.

Money that should have been applied to the building fund has been used for school purposes. Now, wo would suggest to jour honorable body that for the coming jear you will create no new expenses, as we are advised you are contemplating, but rather that you should find some means of retienchlng. No doubt nfter little deliberation you will see some means of stajlng within the means that nre npproprlated to your use. "William Scrivcn. T.

L. Williams, I J. Fairell, borough auditors." After the letter was read, Mr. Hayes stated that to increase the salary of the assistant piinclpai would be out of the question. Mr.

Nealon contended that In view of the facts It would not be proper to hlro a truant officer at this time either. Prof. Cummlngs took pat In the discussion nnd said that If a truant officer was not hired for the coming teim mat It would be necessary to suspend some of tho teachers, as the attendance in some of the rooms Is very small, and that thcie was a decieaso In the attendance of last year over the previous term.
