DUNMORE.
The main questions nudsr considera
tion at the June council meeting were
the Rapid Transit compaey's ordinance
and tho Citizen's G is company's ordi
nance. The latter received no oppm.
iton, but the former was .oumarci ul 'y
criticized and voted again it by Mr.
Pay ton. The company was granted a
franchise over a yoar ago, but owing
to obstacles in the Serantou council
manic chambers they had to relinquish
their former route where they connect
with the city line and nre now endouv
oring to getanotlier franchise that will
carry them to a point from where they
can enter the city. Mr. Pay ton opposes
the scheme on the ground that the
Transit company have not as yet com
menced work on the former route, and
until they show their good taitn by se
curing a city terminus and begin oper
ations on their road bod be does not
think it advisable to grant them any
more rights of way. On motion of
Mr. Walsh, however, the ordinance
passed tirst reading. The Cilizons' Gis
company ordinance paHdd first read
iui?, but Mr, Walsh's motion to hy it
pass second reading was lost. The old
borough attorney fiht of 180:1 was
again unearthed by Burgess Dagau
informing the council of bis refusal to
sign the order No. 495, payable to Mr.
M. E McDonald for services. This is
tho order which caused snch furor on
tho last meeting night of 189d and
caused President Pay ton to declare
the council adjourned sine die. Tne
other members, however, did not uot
with Mr. Payton and ordered the sal
ary paid Unless council decides to
pay Air. McDonald, ho will undoubted
ly sue for the amount. Mr. Mcliugh
recommended a fence around tho bor
ough building, which was place on
file. Among the citizens who had
grievances was Michael McHugh, wtio
complained of the unsafe condition ol
the mountain road, and notified the
couucil that one mouth's grace would
be given them in which time they
must repair the load. A special com
mitteo composing the entire council
will view the road at once and note
necessary repairs. John Swift atked
a settlement for injuries to his horse
which were caused by a bad road bed
where the Gas and Wnier company had
been laying pipes. Viewers had de
cided against the borough, so a com
mittoe was appointed to wait on Mr.
Swift and in conjunction with the
borough attorney effect some satisfac
tory settlement. Secretary Cham bor
lain, of the new board of health, pre
sented the particulars of the organisa
tion of said board. They were referred
to Attorney Daggan for approval. The
secretary was instructed to notify prop
erty owners on Elm, Willow and Wal
nut streets to lay sidewalks and gut
ters. Anthony Close hue returned from a

of the laboring classes in any of the coun

reformers who wear tho simple trousers

excellence for strictly utilitarian purposes,
und the fashion if generally adopted would
be a great relief to hardworking women,

failure. The days of sumptuary laws aro

A Lost News Story.
A managing editor tells this story of
how he failed to get the best of a corre
spondent: "News was scarce and the pros
pects of getting out an interesting paper In
the morning were poor indeed, when from
a small, hut prosperous und supposedly
pious little Illinois town came this dis
patcht " 'Fifty of our best citizens arrested
tonight for playing poker.'
"In a Jiffy I wiretl the correspondent:
" 'Hush details and all the names.'
"While awaiting the story my spirits
rose as I pictured the cj-fct of the bucolic
sensation on the first page. The prospects
of a dry paper were about disappearing as
I thought how interesting the story would
bo (fifty prominent citizens in a small
town liko , you know, means pretty
much the whole town), when there came
on the wire, not the correspondent's story,
but his reply to my order:
