A course of University Extension lec tures is contt'hiplated for the coming winter. Lecture courses have never proven very successful financially In Tunkhannock, but an effort will be made to Interest the various literary societies In the project, and it Is be lieved that enough tickets can be sold to warrant 'the venture. The value of a good lecture course Is unquestionable. Thomas Cuddy Is home from Wilkes- B.'irre on a vacation. The rumors floating about town to the effect thnt somebody had been smuggling tools Into the cell of FrcJ Wall, who Is confined In Jail upon the charge of murder, are unfounded. A close surveillance Is kept over the prem ises and everything in the shape of eat ables, newspapers or other articles are thoroughly examined before passed in to the prisoner.

The concert at Tlalt's opera house by the Mozart Symphony club wa3 the fin est given iln this place for a long time.

The teachers Institute opens today and will last until Friday morning. The lecture tonight by Dr. Reed, president of Dickinson college, promises to be of more than ordinary Interest, and will doubtless be largely attended. PITTSTOX. The alarm of fire which was sounded Friday night at 12 o'clock, and a second alarm about two hours later, merely "for the fun of the thing," has called forth a howl of Indignation from the press and public alike who are adverse to such Jocular methods. It appears the Eagle boys were entertaining their friends In their hall on the evening In question when one of the number Bllpped out unobserved and turned In the alarm. Of course It had the effect of abruptly ending the festivities and also of putting the firemen, not only the Eagles, but the entire department to a great deul of unnecessary trouble, Smarting under the Joke, It Is alleged several of the members of another company, to get even, turned the Joke upon the perpetrators by turning in the second alarm. As the local campaign draws near the question of political timber for the various offices to be filled begins to bo a subject for discussion. While there are Beveral names mentioned In con noctlon with the mayoralty ns prac tlcally fitted to discharge the duties of that Important office noiw, as yet, have publicly announced themselves. Dur Ing the past week, the names of ex President of Council J. J. Hart has been iiroiKised and has met with much favor. The argument advanced in his behelf Is that despite the pinny Insinuations hurled against him during his nluo years as president of the council there Is the first discourteous act, moral or i l ... 1 1 1 ... t.t V lfgu.1, l'l Of i-iiius itt.iiliri ii I ill.
