KEYSER VALLEY ROAD. The back road, more familiarly known as the Keyser Valley road, is badly in need of repairs. A few years ago the road was in a fairly good condition. In fact, it was the best road between Scranton and Lackawanna, but it has been allowed to gret jn slmosir impaeflable con dition. It is filled with stones and ruts and driving over it is anything but a pleasure.

That part of the road between Jackson street and Cayuga yard or Providence is in a deplorable condition. It has more the appearance of the "Rocky road to Dublin" than a public highway through a populous and rich county The Good Roads society have a chance to do a little good work on this and many other public roads in our vicinity. If the road were put in proper shape it would be a pleasant drive, and one much appreciated by the public, for the scenery all the way from Providence to Lackawanna is grand and part of the way is shaded by trees on either side.

Yesterday morning at 10:56 o'clock an alarm was rung in from box 56, caused by a blaze in a third floor bedroom of Peter Ross' hotel, 902 West Lackawanna avenue. It is said the Are originated by burning sulphur for the purpose of fumigating the room.

The Hook and Ladder company put out the fire, with small chemicals, but not before two holes were burnt in the floor. The loss was trifling. Hook and Ladder No. 1, Engine Co. No.

3 and Chemical Co. No. 2 responded. Considerable excitement was caused on Robinson street while the companies were hurrying to the fire, by a farmer from over the mountain who ran over a 14 year old boy named Walter Wood of Hennessy's court, who, it is said, was attempting to mount the farmer's wagon in order to arrive quickly at the fire. The farmer was driving slowly along the street with a load of produce when he heard the gong sound the alarm and saw the people and the fire engines hurrying down Ninth street.

The excitement pleased his fancy and as it was his first chance to see a first class and up to date fire department at work, he whipped up his horses in order to arrive quickly, with the above result. After the boy was run over the fire lost its charm for the farmer and he stopped his horses and quickly drove away before any one could learn his name and address. The boy was picked up by passers by and assisted to his home, where it was found that although quite severely bruised and, shaken up, no bones were broken. MASS MEETING FRIDAY.
