Kor the past few weeks the sick and

the stories they tell of his remarkable
diagnosis and wonderful cures border on
the mlrnculons. (ine)says I went thorn on

Others say that they had been sick and
had suffered for years und they were
cured he cures by the laying on of hands

Kreatest nnd moHt noted magnetic healer
of this century and to see him nnd be

A Calendar Worth Having.
Almost everyone has use for a calendar,
and by tho same token, they ought to have
one that Is of some use. A calendar that
you have to study or "set" lias little ex
cuse for existence. An excellent one Is
that published by N. W. Ayer & Son, the
newspaper advertising agents of I'hlln
(lelphia. Tho hnndsomo copy for IM15
carries on Its seal their famous motto,
"Keeping Everlastingly at It liringa Sue
cess," which will alone each day be worth
to all who use It far more thun the price
of the calendar. The size Is generous, and
the work a beautiful specimen of the
printers' nrt. Tho price Is 25 cents, deliv

Local Cbuinpions Cau Enter State Con

Competition Brief Resume of the
Work In This City.
During the past ten years there lias
been a marked und steady growth of
athletics In America. The change has
boon for the better nnd has put gym
nastics nnd sports on n practical foot
ing. There was a time when athletic
spurts were discouraged, but that was
long hko, during a period when the
peculiar methods employed Invited and
merited criticism. Today sensible peo
ple generally approve of competitive
sports, and the consequent tendency to
vlrurous and graceful manhood.
Yesterday's Tribune described briefly
the complete equipment of the gymna
sium of the ScrunUm Voufi; Men's
Christian association und gave an out
line of Its work. It seems appropriate
that something should be said In detail
of the attractiveness and doings of this
department of the Young Men's Chris
tian association. During the last three
years the scope of the gymnasium has
been enlarged so that It is no longer
confined to indoor work In the winter,
nor Is the local interest restricted to the
limits of Scranton. The change has
wrought Increased Interest In athletic
work, anil is due to several cause s.
About International Athletics.
The local associations throughout the
country have been formed Into state
organisations, and the states in turn
constitute the lntematinal Athletic as-
Champion Athletes
soclatlon of the Young Men's Christian
association. Its purpose is similar to
that of the Amateur Athletic union,
and permits any member to excel in his
state and finally to compete In the In
ternational games with the best Young
Men's Christian association athletes In
the country. This Is only one of the
new and enlarged features.

Conroy and Fox will appear In "Hot

hardly In evidence, surrounded, ns It is,
with funny situations, creditable spe
cialties awl a delicious How of bright
wit, which kept the audience in a roar
for quite three hours. Much could be
said of Conroy and Fox's Irish charac
ter Btudies, but they have been com
ing to Omaha for several seasons now
and tbeir line of work is well known to
theater-goers, who have laughed immo
derately over their funny sayings, their
flashes of genuine Irish humor."

JURY VIEWED PROPERTY
Wanted to Sec Just How O'Horo's
Property 'us Damaged.
MOTT CASE IX JURY'S HANDS
Harrington .Made No Defense-Small Ver
dict Given In Favor of Patrick Sh if i.
Action Drought by S. II. Cuttcr-.Mcn
from Scott Township in Court.
The most important matter In the
counts yesterday, the one of the great
est public Interest, was the suit of
James O'Horo against the city of
Scranton for damages done to his prop
erty on North Ma-ln avenue near
Throop street, by the widening of the
avenue In accordance with an ordi
nance passed by the city councils. Thu
street was Improved in 1887 nnd a board
of viewers assessed the damage done
to White's property at $6."0.
Ho appealed the case to court and it
was yesterday tried. A number of wit
nesses were sworn who gave their
opinions ns to the market value of
White's properly before it was seized
and the value of what was left after it
was seized. Their estimates fixed the
damage nt figures ranging between
$1,'J00 nnd $1,1100. The jury went up to
view the property. Judge Edwards de
livered a very learned charge to the
Jury and placed the case In -their hands,
ordering thorn to seal their verdict and
return it to court tills morning.
Tn No, 2 Judge MePherson heard the
assumpsit suit of Assignee S. I!. Mott,
of tlie Hyde Park bank, agulnist C. I.
Jadvvln. Tho defendant's side of the
case was heard yesterday and it was al
leged that there is due Mr. Jadwln
$2,300 Instead of his owing the bank any
money. Judge MePherson's charge was
a lengthy one, carefully prepared and
clearly delivered. The Jury was or
dered to report with its verdict, if one
shall have been agreed upon, when
court opens this morning.
Offered No Defense.
Judge Gunster presided in the main
court room nt the trial of four cases.
Tho first one was that of Enos Flynn
against John Harrington nnd wife for
a store bill contracted away back in
1.S77 to the amount of $:ui.4S. The de
fense offered no testimony and the jury
found a verdict for the full amount of
the claim.
Another suit where the defense prac
tically admitted its liability by offering
no testimony was that of the First Na
tional bank, of Spencer, Iowa, against
Knight, White & Co. to recover on a
draft of $200, dated Nov. !), 1SS9. A
verdict for the bank in the. sum or $201
was rendered. The jury brought In a
verdict of $2.55 In favor of Patrick
Swift, of Hichmondale, who sued the
Elk Hill Coal and Iron company for
alleged back wages amounting to $152.
Charles Patchersued Levi Snyder for
wages and the jury agreed that he was
entitled to $u0.SI.
S. II. Cutter engaged the attention of
the court with his suit of $114 for car
penter repair work done on three
houses In Park Place owned by Mrs.
Susan Dale. Cutter rented one of the
houses, nnd after ho was engaged to do
the repairs he thought It was not worth
Ills while to pay the rent, and thus he
allowed the rent roll to accumulate to
$114. The defendants said that would
square his bill for repair work and let
It go at that. The Jury went out and
came to thu conclusion that $27 was
enough to pay him over and above the
rent.
A Scott Township Case.
Quite a comical case was the next one
nnd It was still on nt adjournment
Henjamin Howey is suing James Wil
son, of Scott township, for confiscating
potatoes, onions and radishes worth in
the neighborhood of $50. Howey and
bis wife nnd two children went to live
with Wilson and the agreement be
tween them was that in exchange for
Howey's work on the farm and his

wife's work as housekeeper, Wilson
would support the Howeys.
This went on until the third of Inst
July, when Howey engaged a horse
from Wilson to drive to Jeasup. At the
latter place he began drinking, and
when he got sufficiently drunk to be
come foolish he gathered a crowd
around und for their edification pro
ceeded to show how well he had trained
Wilson's horse since he went to work
on the latler's farm. The animal re
sented his familiarity and actually
kicked Howey, breaking his nrm.
Wilson discharged lilm and took the
liberty of appropriating the crop of a
small tract of land that Howey was
cultivating for his own use. That Is the
cause of the suit. It was tried before
and taken from the Jury on a techni
cality. Later a new trial was granted.
Wilson was on the stand in his own de
fense and made an amusing witness.
