When Dr. McLaughlin was called for sentence at 11 o'clock Attorney James L.

Lenahan made a few remarks in which he stated the defendant was satisfied to do all he could for the maintenance and education of the child. Judge Fuller replied that the sentence was of a perfunctory character and that no imprisonment could be imposed unless the defendant failed to comply with the order of court. In passing sentence Judge Fuller said that the jury took a cold blooded and dispassionate view of the case in acquitting the defendant of the serious charge. He said that by that action the defendant, no doubt, has felt a large amount of shame and mortification. He said that in the present case he thought it proper to depart from the stereotyped practice and impose a sentence different to the usual way.

He then ordered the defendant to pay the costs of prosecution, to pay a fine of $100 to the Central Poor district, $75 to the mother for expenses incurred the birth and for its maintenance to January 25, 1911; to give security in the sum of $1,500 for the following payments, $100 for each of the first five years and $li5 for each of the next five years, the money to be paid to the mother in quarterly installments, beginning on April 25, 1911, and ending Jan. 25, 1921.

STROLLER'S NOTE BOOK In noticing the photopraph of the original Scranton letter carriers in yesterday's issue, the Stroller neglected to mention tiie fact that only one of these has remained in continuous service as a carrier since his appointment. He Is Eleazer S. Evans, who is still a faithful and vigorous attache of the department. Years ago, the other two who continue to draw salary from the Bcranton office, were promoted to easier, if more responsible berths. Several of the original carriers are dead and one or two others have left the city.

The Stroller well remembers the time when these carriers were appointed. Previous to that time, there were suburban post offices, the central city people going for their mall to the post office, then located in the Academy of Music block on Wyoming avenue. There was never any doubt, the Stroller was told yesterday, of the confirmation of the appointment of Hon. R. TV.

Arch bald, of this city, as a member of the new commerce court. The first rumors set afloat concerning him emanated from sources that would not dare to fight him in the open for the reason that the opinion that was quoted as unfavorable to him, contained a concluding paragraph that declared Judge Archbald to be free from blame. When the report was circulated through the state that Judge Arclibald was to be opposed by certain senators at Washington, there came through the mails to these members of the upper house such a flood of endorsements of the Scranton man that immediately all opposition vanished. The incident has really helped the local favorite, for it has brought his real strength to the attention of men of great influence at the national capital. Jt was noticeable that among the 'men throughout Pennsylvania who were moat ardent in their support of Judge Archbald were many who had been in attendance on his court as jurors and who admit that they were Impressed by his conspicuous ability in the trial of cases and the disposal of motions.

The action of the Democrats of Lackawanna county In forwarding a petition to the proper parties asking for a special meeting of the state committee for the reorganization and rehabilitation of the party recalls a story that was extensively circulated during the campaign to the ef 50c and up Checked Silks An unusually tine variety of all sorts of checks, large and small black and white or colored. 19 and 27 inches wide.

feet that there was more sympathy in the organization hereabouts with Berry and his campaign than with, the legitimate' candidate of unterriHcd, Mr. Grim. 1 do not mean to intimate that there was any treachery in the organiza tion. I believe Its official acts in thcu maiier were loyai ana correct, rtie leaders owed it to themselves to ere to that. But from personal conversations with several of the mombers of the committee during the campaign, 1 saw that they would shed no salty tears were Berry to be elected.

The sentiment against the Democratic state organization among the rank and file of the local Democrats was strong and found expression In the Interview with Attoricy Samuel B. Price that was printed last week. Mr. Price Is regarded as the representative of an element of his party that cannot be ignored, and which, nearly as a whole, voted or Berry for governor. Charles Buck, for seven years night manager for E.

F. Edgerton, proprietor of the D. L. W. restaurant in the.

local station, has resigned his position and will seek the more congenial day Held. Mr. Buck is one of the best liked young men in the city, and his large following of friends will greatly miss him from the accustomed stand, where the late lunches are doled out to the starving wayfarer. He takes with him the best wishes of all the regulars at the Edgerton hostelry, and this, of course, Includes the host of Lackawanna employes, who looked upon "Charlie" as one of the Immovable fixtures of the system. Changes in heads of departments and among the minors might happen and common employes might come and go, but.

It seemed, that Edgerton's night manager was dae to stay right on that Job forever. But the "day Job" called as It has called so many others, and no longer around the Lackawanna station will the night be filled with music, andthe cares that infest the day, fold their tents like the Arabs and as silently steal a doughnut' Good luck to "Charlie." The Stroller has been wondering what will be the effect upon the future of high license laws In this state of the agitation against the increase Of licenced houses almost everywhere; of the effort being made In certain sections to prevent brew eries from directly' Interesting themselves In saloons of the movement that has appeared in the legislature in favor of local option; and of the tendency of the courts in certain counties to enforce early closing as a matter of di.scretion, although no mention of such a provision is found in the law. A decision recently rendered by the Schuylkill county courts that affects the situation is receiving wide publicity. Objections were made to certain licensed houses In the county because it was contended that in part, at least, they were owned by breweries. The decision of the court was that there was nothing in the law forbidding breweries from interesting themselves in such places.

I am not certain whether any of our stale courts had ever looked this question squarely in the face before, but I have seen intimations that they questioned the right of a brewery to furnish the "sinews of war" that made, certain of the hotels and restaurants possible. Up the valley there is much disappointment over the fact that the of Commissioners of Public Charities, In Its report to the legislature, has recommended such a small appropriation for the Mid Valley hospital. Two years ago, the petition of the promoters of this institution was turned down therefore it has never received a cent of state aid. In view of tills fact, It was hoped that this year the state would show a little generosity and make provision for the building expense, all of which, to date, has been borne by private Interests. True, $7,500 has been recommended for this purpose, but it contains the proviso that citizens of the Mid Valley raise an additional $20,000.

While these figures are not final, It Is to bo feared that the legislature will do no more than the commissioners have recommended. But, having done so much in the past in support of this hospital, we have no doubt that the people of the upper valley towns will prove niiwi iv me uucuniuu riuw uiq amount of money An Inspiration Kilter.
