J. Lillibridge's fowls were stolen an attempt was made to secure those of Mr. Metiers, but after breaking the lock they evidently became frightened and departed after securing but one. All members of the Columbus gun club are requested to attend a meeting at 'Squire Smithlsofficethis evening, at 7:30 sharp. The great success of the recent literary and musical entertainment arranged and conducted by Miss Jessie L.

Stearns, ably assisted by her pupils from her school of elocution, has caused a great desire from among those who could not gain admission, owing to the overcrowded condition of the hall, to have it repeated. Miss Stearns is considering the matter and will probably consent to do so. Mrs. Harry Metiers, of the Second ward, is convalescing after a long and serious illness. Miss Bonfleld, of West Scranton, visited her sister.

Mrs. William Swales, of Hickory street, the forepart of the week. The very successful administration of Burgess S. B. Williams has won him many compliments of a congratulatory nature, as well as a request from a large number of his friends that he become a candidate for councilman at the expiration of his term.

Mrs. Thompson, wife of Dr. J. E. Thompson, has returned to the home of her parents at Taylor after a few days' visit with her husband.

Mr. and Mrs. Robert Abraham, of the West End, entertained at a surprise party recently a number of their friends, who gathered to pay a parting farewell to Mr. Abraham, who is preparing to depart for New Mexico, where he may decide to locate permanently. Mr.

and Mrs. Abraham were equal to the very happy occasion and entertained the party in a most acceptable manner. Miss llame Sullivan, of Scranton, is the guest of her aunt, Mrs. Hazely, of Mott Haven. A case of scarlet fever, of a mild form, has been reported to the board of health in the family of Mr.

HONESDALE. MAY 24. About 3 o'clock Tuesday morning fire was discovered in one of Mr. Taylor's houses on Union Hill occupied as a dwelling by W. E.

Kingsley. Mr. Kinsley's brother Emmet, who boards with him, was the first to awaken from the effects of the smoke. He aroused his brother and both were compelled on account of the lower part of the house being in llamse, to jump from their bed room in the upper part of the house. They barely escaped with their lives.

Mr. Taylor's house was Insurance o0U. Mr. Kins ley's furniture was also lost. Insur ance $000.

Carbondale is the city of his birth and his father, late Hon. Edward Jifkins, was at one time mayor of this city. Mr. Jifkins' memories of Carbondale are not very distinct, as his family left here when he was but a small boy. He easily recognized the house occupied by Irving Davis, on Seventh avenue, as the home of his boyhood clays.

He thinks Porto Rico an excellent place to live, but says it costs all a man can earn to live there. He expects to return to Yauco soon. PARK STREET MATTER. Hon. John F.

Reynolds appeared before the street committee Tuesday evening in the interest of those who recently petitioned councils for the improvement of Park street and in the interest of the people of this city at large, who favor municipal improvement and increased valuation of property. Among the points brought out by Mr. Reynolds, supported by the opinion of City Engineer Shepherd, was that no material damage could be wrought by the change, as the grade is very slight. This shows the absurdity of the re monstrators in holding that their properties would be damaged. Another good point was that the only reason property on Lincoln avenue was worth more than that on Park street was because of the improvements which increase property valuation.

The grade on Park street is the lightest of all the other streets leading to the southern portion of the city. Attorney Butler appeared for those signing the remon strance, but had little to say other than that contained in the document. NOTES. Mrs. Fred Briggs.

Mr. Frothlnghani has a gang of men at work grading and erecting telephone poles for the benefit of the new silk mill, which will be erected upon his large plot of ground near No. 4. The contract for the erection of the mill has been let and it is expected that work will be begun within a few days for the excavating. The remains of the late John A.

Gil lick were placed in their last resting place yesterday morning in St. Mary's Catholic cemetery, West AvoCa. The funeral was well attended by relatives and friends from New York, White Haven, Allentown, Wilkes Barre, Philadelphia, Scranton, Taylor, Avoca and Moosic. The high esteem in which deceased was held was plainly shown in the gorgeous display of flowers, which were the handsomest ever presented to any on such an occasion here. His remains were viewed by a host of people.

The funeral was under the supervision of Mr. James Walsh, undertaker, of Moosic. At 9:15 o'clock the funeral cortege wended its way to St. Mary's Catholic church, Avoca, where a high mass of requiem was solemnized. The Hose company's house was draped in mourning in his honor and a delegation from the (Hose company marched in a body ahead of the barouche containing the flowers.

A delegation from the Heptasophs was also present. It was the request of the deceased that he should be placed in St. Mary's cemetery at West Avoca, and that his father, who is buried at Allentown, should be brought here and buried with him. This request the family will comply with. The flower bearers were Messrs.

Ambrose Altemus, M. J. Garvey, John Butler, Rolley Davis. Pall bearers were Messrs. P.

Wilkes Barre has met with quite a number of defeats on the present trip. A run of bad luck by Richmond would take some of the confidence out of that team, too. Paterson has released Schortstop Riley and signed Moss and Twirler Pfanmiller. The latter is reported to be a good one. McGraw, Holmes, Brodle and Keister of the Baltimores are batting well in the .300 class.

Pitcher Carriek of the New Yorks has yet to win his first game. He has lost six straight. More than one crank has wondered why Hunlon let. Cassidy go, as he is just the kind of a man Hanlon would have developed into a winner. There's the making of a crackajack in the Washington first baseman.

He'd strengthen that Philadelphia team at first right now. New York Press. Marty Swift is to be congratulated upon the good team he has got together for Scranton According to the Reading newspapers their club is losing games by stupid base running Catcher Snyder of Reading is not throwing well to bases and men are continually stealing second on him. Lancaster Intelligencer. Casey, the third baseman of the Brook lyns, stands 0 feet inches in his shoes, but he weighs 144 pounds.

Casey is happy over liis good fortune in being sold to a high class team. "Here your good playing goes for something." said Casey. "If you play good ball with a winning team it counts, but good ball with a bad team goes unnoticed. Nobody cares how brilliantly you have played if you lose the game. Talk about the "Ould Sod." How's this for a line up: Lippert, Dillon, Eagan, Doherty, O'Connell, McMahon, O'Nell and Keenan.

Faith, 'tis a foine aggre gaashin. Erin go bragh! Lancaster Examiner. Eagan was by far the star of the game. He accepted eight chances without an error, and his work at times was of the sensational order. He also led the batting with three hits.

Lancaster Examiner. President Barrows of the Atlantic League expressed himself to a reporter as follows: "Yes, I'm going to take personal charge of the Paterson team. I still have great faith in the Paterson people. I believe that they will support a good base ball team. Base ball crowds all along the circuit are larger than nearly any former year.

There is no special local cause to make it such a failure in Paterson. In this town are plenty of loyal good sport lovers, but they are not going to give up their coin to watch the antics of a lot of dead ones. Augie Moran, the outfielder, an old Paterson boy, who played with Allentown last year, will be captain. He will be competent and popular with both the players and the public. Pfanmiller, the Richmond pitcher, has been assigned to the Paterson team.

Other good pitching material will be added and also another catcher. Scranton doesn't play an even game. One day they play almost prefect ball and the next day they play like a lot of amateurs. Wilkes Barre News. An AuMtrian Dogberry.

Tho Vienna men of law have recently distinguished themselves in a unique manner. A Wachau peasant had been caught in the criminal act of throwing stones at rabbits. He had not hit them, and the rabbits had decamped without so much as suspecting the attack, but tho peasant was hauled before the high courts of justice. His defense was that the rabbits had been close to his garden and that he had only tried to frighten the greedy rodents off his cabbages. All the same, he was condemned to three days' imprisonment The peasant appealed against the sentence, but in vain.

If a rabbit had been killed, said the authorities, the peasant would certainly have stolen it, and stealing a rabbit was an unlawful action. And thus the man from Wachau went to prison for three days, and the wise judges of Vienna have bounded into fame for their new method of onDlyimr tho "if" and "and" theory, UE WIVES 1 BLESSING The Masculine Point of View. 'A Good Wife is a Good Thing. But "God bless our wives. They fill our hives With little bees and honey.

They soothe life's shocks, they mend our socks, But don't they spend the money?" That's an Old Country jingle. But it represents the masculine sentiment of all countries. The wife is a great blessingbut she's expensive. However helpful she is there's always that qualifying "but" when the masculine mind dwells on money and when doesn't it? There's no satisfying some people, especially when the pocketbook is touched. That is what makes the main un happiness of many a good wife.

She works hard, she devotes herself to husband and family. But when she wants a dollar she has to beer for it. and nroha. bly he asked: "Why, Where's that dollar I gave you the other day?" The "other day" is weeks ago. It would serve the man right to let him find an empty table at dinner time, and when he asked for dinner ask him: "Where'3 that dinner you had yesterday?" But the wife doesn't do that.

She tries to "manage along And this is not so bad when is is only a question of a new gown or hat. But it's a question of health, it is very different. It is undoubtedly the case that many a woman lets little ailments grow to great diseases, sooner than ask her husband to pay a doctor's fee. The husband is not unkind at heart. If he knew there was anything wrong he'd be the first to propose a doctor.

But he doesn't note the slow change in his wife's appearance and he doesn't feel the pains and aches which make the day's work drudgery. It is under circumstances such as these that women appreciate the offer of Dr. K. V. Pierce, of a consultation by letter free.

Dr. Pierce is not only a physician. He is a specialist in woman's diseases. For more than thirty years as chief consulting physician to the Invalids' Hotel and Surgical Institute, at Buffalo, N. he has made diseases peculiar to women an especial study.

He has treated more than half a million of cases, and ninety eight out of every hundred treated have been positively cured. Thousands of cases have been reached by what so many have called "that God send to women," Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription. Its efficacy in stopping debilitating and offensive drains, curing ulceration, inflammation, and bearing down pains is testified to by thousands of grateful women, who have consulted Dr. Pierce as to their health and ailments.

"It is with heartfelt gratitude to you for your kind advice that I must tell you what your medicine has done for me," writes Mrs. A. F. Crenshaw, of Panasoffkee, Sumter Fla. "After consulting you about my case I took your medicine and can say it cured me of female weakness.

I was all run down; suffered with sick headache, pains in the back and bearing down pains. I took two bottles of Doctor Pierce's Favorite Prescription, and was then able to take care of my house. My health is better than it has been for three years. I do not know how to thank you for the kind advice you gave so cheerfully." There's an advantage in this consultation by letter which the modesty of women is quick to see and take advantage of. It does away with the indelicate questionings, the offensive examinations and local treatments, of the average physician.

It's an entirely private consultation. The letter is read as privately as it is written. Its contents are held as absolutely sacred. The answer is sent in a perfectly plain envelope bearing upon it no printing or ad vertising to show where it comes from. Every woman can write freely, frankly and fearlessly, knowing that she wifl receive friendly as well as medical advice from the most competent authority.

Sometimes a natural doubt arises as to how D. R. V. Pierce can be so sure of succeeding where others fail. But th fact is easy to explain.

There was a woman once celebrated for her "angels food." A friend went to her and begged the recipe. It was given her with the most careful cautions as to making and baking. The friend went home delighted. She started right off to make a cake. She measured, she weighed, she mixed, she tasted.

But the cake came out of the oven a flat failure. She tried again. No better result. Then she said the woman had deceived her in the recipe. But the woman took the same recipe and made a cake that melted in the mouth.

Now why couldn't the friend make that cake just as well as the woman that gave the recipe? Because the woman couldn't give lh5 friend with the recipe the skill and experience that went into her success. That explains Dr: Pierce's success. The same sources of knowledge are open to any physician. But with the same facilities that Dr. Pierce has they fail, because they lack the experience and skill which counts for so much in Doctor Pierce's cures.

"About one year ago I wrote to Dr. Pierce, describing my disease," writes Mrs. Armintie H. Newman, of Dugspur, Carrol Va. "I do not know what did ail me, my right side and between my shoulders hurt me all the time; had no appetite; very little sleep, displace ent or falling of internal organs and in fact I was all run down, not able even rr i to cook a meal, and was nearly blind in one eye and was afraid I would be entirely blind.

I had been to three doctors, but they did me no good. I was determined to try once more, and I to Dr. It. V. Pierce.

I received a speedy answer telling me what to take for my complaint and full directions how to take the medicines. I sent and got four bottles; two of Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription, two of 'Golden Medical and also one vial of 'Pleasant Pellets." I took them according to directions, and, thanks to God and to Dr. Pierce, I took the medicine two months and got rid of all my pains. I got strong and stout, so I coull weave without and fatigue.

Could four miles to singing class like a girl of sixteen, and could sing with as strong a voice as the rest of them. I wove nearly one hundred yards of cloth in less than five months from the time I commenced taking Dr. Pierce's medicines." There is no medicine to compare with "Favorite Prescription" in its wonderful work for women. In young women it corrects the irregularities which are so fruitful of latter evils. It dries up the unhealthy and unpleasant drains to which so many women owe a life of misery.

It heals inflammation and ulceration and cures female troubles. It gives vigor and elasticity to the organs peculiarly feminine. It makes motherhood a joy by robbing its preceding days of all anxiety, foreboding and discomfort; by making the baby's advent natural and therefore easy and almost painless, and by an ample lacteal provision by which the nursing mother has constant joy. Advertisements are sometimes designingly worded to induce women to enter into correspondence, supposedly with a woman physician. Women are urged to write to a woman on the plea of receiving a "woman's sympathy," and because "a woman best understands women." There is no special feminine road to medical knowledge.

If a woman understands disease, she understands it not as a woman but as a phy. ician. Mere sympathy wont relieve pain or cure disease. The need is of competent medical advice. As far as known there is no qualified woman physician connected with any proprietary medicine, and therefore no woman 1 III' I' 1 competent to give medical advice.

It is certain that no one else can offer as does Dr. K. V. Pierce the free benefit of thirty years of special study of woman's diseases, supported by a record of more than half a million cases treated with ninety eight per cent, of cures. Fancy a man switching a train from the safe track just to make a dime out of the catastrophe! It's something that same line when a dealer for the sake of a dime of extra profit, or perhaps less, tries to switch a customer from the purchase of medicine of reputation and record, to a mere imitation or substitute.

A "just as good" preparation acknowledges in that very phrase that it is a mere shadow of success. Don't throw away the substance for a shadow. Insist on the real thing Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription. About the last place you'd look for common sense would be in a medical work.

For the most part these works "darken counsel by words without knowledge." It is one of the crowning features of Dr. Pierce's Common Sense Medical Adviser, that it is all that its name implies. All that and vastly more for the bare title of "Shakespeare's Plays" no more expresses the wonder of that master mind, which like an ocean touched every shore, embraced all fields of knowledge and all realms of fancy, than the bare title of Dr. Pierce's great work expresses the extent of the information, the value of the knowledge contained in its 1008 pages. This book is sent absolutely free on receipt of stamps to pay cost of mailing only.
