Real estate activities In the central city were other features of the departing year.

Those most important were the sales of the old postoffice building, the Handley block and several other business blocks to Myer Davidow; the sale of half of the building of J. D. Williams A Bro. company on Wash ington avenue to Samter brothers, the sale of the Cliff Works to William ft Bro. company, the sale of the property at Adams avenue and Spruce to W.

J. Davis and Valentine Bliss, the sale of the building occupied by Mellet's meat market on Wyoming avenue to H. P. Mellet, the proprietor, and the sale of properties on Adams avenue to Siegel brothers. The state was also made by the Elks and the Women's Catholic club for modern nev, club houses.

The Elks purchased the Shafer building on Washington avenue, adjoining the Scranion club and ill erect a modern club house there. The Women's Catholic club purchased the building at Mulberry street and Wyoming avenue used by it for some time. The club was enlarged during tbe year and Its membership now takes in hundreds of people living between Forest City and Pittston. Plana for a modern ciutmouse of brick and 8ton construction were drawn up several months ago and work on the building will be started in a couplu of years. PROSPEROUS YEAR.

As a result of the large amour of building work done during the year it was a prosperous year tor the ren of the various building trades. The year was also free from many serious str.kes. There were several smail strikes of miners at various places up the valley and also a serious strika of the employes of the. Pennsylvania Coal company at its collieries in Dun more and south of the city. The employes of the James Simpson Silk Company were on strike for some time during the year and there were strinea of carpenters and painters, electricians and electrical workers, hod carriers and laborers and brick layers.

A strike of drivers and meat handlers at two of the local meat houses was called the other day. ONE MAN EXECUTED. There was one hanging during the year, Shandore Fenez of Throop paying the death penalty for the killing of Mrs. Lizzie Horvath at Throop. He was hung by James Vau Rise, professional hangman, it being one of the most successful executions of the nearly 100 that Van Hise has performed.

Ther were eleven homicides during ihe year, a verdict of murder in th first degree being returned in one of the cases. IMPORTANT CONVENTIONS. Several important conventions were held during the year, among the most important being those of the Supreme Castle of tbe Knighta of the Golden Eagle, the State Federation of Catholic societies and the State Federation of Women's societies. The reunion of tne old Gravity employes at Nay Aug park, the celebration of John Mitchell day, and the observance of Welsh day were other big events. The New England dinner, Charity euchre, Irish American dinner and the Bachelors' ball were among the big social features during the twelve months.

Among the "big times" are listed tbe annual outings of the councllmen, police and the Elks. OUTLOOK FOR 1911. With 19 to the rear, its usefulness gone and It only a memory, the city is looking for 1911 to bring it fur ther along to a more metropolitan. community. Tbe census given out several mouths ago showed the city to have a population of nearly 130,000.

The 150,000 mark is now what the city aims at. The IJoard of Trade is making plans for having the coming year be the greatest in its history. The organization is considering th raising of a large fund, which will be used to help struggling industries and to bring other industries to the city. One of the big things that the board will try to accomplish during the year will be th securing an occupant for the Kecuinerer Iron Works, one of the largest plants in the city which has been idle for some time. The Cliff Works, another big local plant, which has been occupied for some time 'u to be raado into a big bakery aud candy making plant by J.

D. Williams Bro. Company early in tbe year. Numerous new buildings including several churches are to be erected during the year and the building of the Mulberry street viaduct is expected to be started soon. The extending of the paved streets and sewer lines will be taken up during the year and therj will be much other work done under the direction of the city.

The new county road being built between Old Forge and Carbondale is one of the mammoth projects left over for 1911 The start was made on it this year but when the cold weather came along it was necessary to stop work for the winter. The encampment of the Grand Army of the Republic and the holding nuihyTOUs conventions wiil be the feature of the new vear. Baptist. aptlst church, rittstnn fear street. Rev a.

The company is to build a trolley line to Binghamton opening up a rich farming country not at present touched by trolley or steam lines. The start in the building of the road will come next year. The Lake Ariel Railway company was organized during the year and it expects to build a line to Lake Ariel starting the work next year. The building of the Hues to Binghamton and Lake Ariel will mean a greater boom for the city. Station" and power houses will be erected in the city or vicinity and there will be work for many men on the building of the roads.

The Scranton and Binghamton company also controls a milk company and will erect a large milk plant somewhere along its line, not many miles from this city. A giant project that was arranged for during the year was that of generating electricity at Paupack falls, over in Wayne county, which will be sent to this city. Local men are interested in this plan and it is one of the most stupendous ever formed. WERE FEW DISASTERS. The city had not.

many disasters during the year and those were light as compared with some in preceding years. There were two serious wrecks on tbe Lackawanna line. At Analomink a train made up of more than sixty cars got away on the mountain and brought up in heaps of burning debris at the foot. Two men" were killed. Engineer CoKlizer and Brakernan Ryan.

The v. 1. was novar t'ti nit uuuj ui mo The other serious wreck occurred in the local jarns anu was aue 10 carelessness or an wb eu awnuu tender. He forgotto change a switch and two passenger trains ame together in a bead on collision. iany passengers were Mignuy iu Juied and Fireman William R.

Town and Engineer Thomas Broderick seriously injured. Tobin was wedged in the cab for several hours while thousands viewed tbe work of rescuing him. Of a sensational nature were the alleged discovery by Dr. F. W.

Lange of a silver making process and attendant happening.s those coming during 1910. The fact that Dr. Lange had been making experiments with a silver making process oame to light following the death of Dickinson in New York city. It was reported that gaseous fumes arising from the mixture Dr. Lange was using in his tests brought on his death.

After the world iu general had finished commenting upon the alleged wonderful discovery of Dr. Lange there came other sensttlonal features to the case. E. D. Gleasou a Philadelphia chemist, was arrested charged with passing forged notes on Dr.

Lunge. Gleason interestel Philadelphia ari New York capitalists iu a silver making process, which he claimed, and they came here to watch his experiments. They were declared failures by the capitalists and they left the city, Gleason going to jail. While in a cell, Gleason charged that the capitalists had tried to steal his process froml him and that lie had given Dr. Langel the process which he laid claim to.

WAGES WERE INCREASED. In railroad circles the most im portant happenings ef the year were' the increased wages and improved! conditions granted to the firemen, trainmen and switchmen onj the various roads nctering the and the opening of the mammoth Hampton yards of the Lackawanna company. The new locomotive Shops of the Lackawanna company were opened during the year, though the biggest shop building of all, the erection shop Is not working PARKERS HAIR BALSAM CleiBxe tod botatinef Uie half; Promote laxarian, growth.

There was one near flight here, Bert Beavers, inventor and builder of a monoplane, making the attempt in a field northwest of the city. Because of too much weight in certain parts, the machine didn't soar, though there wa3 a noticeable inclination on its part to quit the earth. FREE FROM BIG FIRES. The city was remarkably free from disastrous fires during the year, the largest of them being those at the G. W.

Watklus building on Lackawanna avenue, the Empire Dry Goods store ou Penn avenue and the Jersey Central station on Lackawanna avenue. The year saw the introduction of ao automobile into tbe Are department. Several months ago this was added to the city's fire fighting facilities and it has already proved of great value. During the year the health of the city has been good, the record for contagious diseases establishing a new lew record. CITY'S GREATEST PROBLEM.

Scranton's greatest problem, that of protecting the surface from damage by mine disturbance, was taken up during the year. The Dimmick plan, so called because of it having beea proposed by former Mayor J. Benjamin Dimmick, has been adopted by the wty and for several months two well known mining engineers of Philadelphia and Pittston have been making an investigation of the city's under ground. An advisory commission made I nn nf weii.irnnwn men nr tn country will receive the report of the engineers and advise the city upon the next mcve to be taken. It is likely that tne in wilt rtovoirm anr al to thfl i Mature fnr a wnwiiv.

There were sev eral mine settlings during the year but nonfl reached the DroDort ons of some which occurred in previous ars. Another happening out of the ordi nary which featured 1910 was the probe of the Scranton school board. A grand Jury was kept in session for three weeks making an investigation of reports that tbe school board mem bers were not as raitntui servants as the city desired. Many surprising things In connection with the board and its manner of doing business came to light during this probe aud numerous indictments were returned by the grand Jury DISTINGUISHED VISITOR. The cky's rost distinguished visitor during the year was Colonel Theodore Roosevelt, former president or ms United States.

He came here in an automobile from New York, meeting John Mitchell, former president of th United Mine Workers here. They traveled through the Lackawanna valley, the colonel Tisiting numerous hemes to investigate the conditions. He also made a tour of the small towns in Luzerne county, hear Wilkes Barre. Later he wrote a long report for the Outlook Magazine upon his investigations here. The city talked of Colonel Roosevelt's visit here for many a day.

Another most distinguished visitor that tbe city had during the year was Governor Edwin S. Stuart who came here to open the annual industrial exposition of the Scranton Board of Trade. That was a big affair for progressive Scranton. There were several thousand people present on opening night when the governor turned the switch which sent the electric fluid flowing into the thousands of incandescent and are globes. LINE ELECTRIFIED.

The electrification of the Moosic lake line was one of the big things of the year. The line was leased by tbe American Railways company and electricity made the motive power. It was intended to open tbe line dur. lng the summer but there came serious delays in the arrival of needed material and the opening had to be delayed for a year. The leasing of the Northern Electrijc line by the Scranton and Binghamton Railway "Peck's Bad Boy" to Be Produced by the Keystone Club.
