Never befora In the history of the
high school has the- West Side been bo
well represented by graduates as it will
be at the oomlng June commencement
exerebws. We are leaders. Lloyd
Cooper, son of the recent pastor of the
Hampton Street church, will probably
capture the valedictory. Ever since Sir.
Cooper entered the hisrh school. In 1S!)3,
he has led his class, on the average. In
all studies. So well did he work that
at the end of the '94 school term he was
marked by his teachers as the class
valedictorian. Miss Mary Daniels, who
led her clasa In No. II, preparatory
school, will secure the salutatory. Of
the twelve honorable places on the

is warranted that 'at least live will be

The
Saturday
Tribune.
ONE of the secrets of the
great and growing popular
ity of the Saturday Tribune
is Its originality. Unlike the
special editions of many other
papers, It is not made up largely
if not exclusively, of stareotyped
features widely syndicated for
simultaneous publication. On
the contrary, the bulk of the
special matter presented In The
Saturday Tribune is prepared
especially for this paper. That
The Saturday Tribune is satis
factorily filling its field Is sub
stantially manifested by a
steadily growing constituency.
No other paper ever printed In
the history of Scranton Journal
ism has achieved a fuller meas
ure of success than The Satur
day Tribune,
The Saturday Tribune is es
sentially Scranton's Favorite
Newspaper.
BASE BALL AND OTHERSPORTS.
LL the year round The Trib
une Is in advance In cover
Ing events of note In the
sporting world. But with the
opening of the base ball season
It will, as heretofore, give addi
tional attention to this depart
ment. Base ball lovers will find
the games covered more fully
from day to day in The Tribune
than they are covered by any
other paper printed or sold in
Soranton. This paper Is the
recognized authority in Scran
ton on base ball and other sports
and arrangements have Been
made that will insure fuller and
better reports than ever before.
Patrons of the national game
will find in The Tribune every
day 'In trfe week Just what they
want In the way of detailed re
ports, which will be supplement
ed each Saturday with a page of
the freshest and most readable
sporting news and gossip. Due
attention will also be given to all
other out-door pastimes.
The regular Eastern league base ball
season begins todny. In Scranton the
event will be celebrated with much
formality, musio and display, the Syra
cuse team being the attraction for
three days.
Previous to the game, which will be
called at 4 o'clock, the clul, headed by
a bund will parado the business streets.
Flags and bunting will be displayed on
the grandstand, and during several In
tervals of the game music will be sup
plied by a band. Mayor Connell, the
judges and nil tho city und ootinty ofll
clals have been Invited by the associa
tion to witness the opening game.
It Is reported that an Important feat
ure will bo Mayor Connell's twirling of
tho llrst ball from the pitcher's box.
It will be purely a formality, und, al
though the mayor has not consented to
grace the- diamond for bo brief a period,
the management says positively that
he will do so,
Brown, the ex-Baltimore pitcher, and
Rogers will be In' the points for Scran
ton. Hess will catch for Syracuse, and
either Kllmy or Burnett will pitch.
Captain Swevney's arm Is not entirely
well f rom the Injury received In a fall
In Corbomlule, but he may possibly be
able to occupy his position at short.
Everybody regrets that Veteran Oivff
ney ha9 been transferred to Wllkes
Uurre to umpire the opening games.
Herman Doescher will umpire here,
Tim Hurst in Providence and Snyder
and Swartwoort In Sprlnglleld.
Rochester will play here tho last
three days of this week. Next week
the BufTalos und Torontos, In the order
named, will each play here. The Scran
ton team will then leave for a swing
around the circuit, returning June L

Lynch resigned a week ago from the
National league owing to the shabby
treatment by President Young. One of
the present Eastern league staff will be
released to make a place for Lynch,
who, with Hurst, Gaffney, Snyder or
Doescher, would make the most gilt
edged umpire staff ever attached to any
league.

MONTROSE,
Roy MoLeod, a young son of Abra
ham McLeod, residing on the Sayre
farm, was so unfortunate as to fall
ddvn stairs on Thursday, breaking his
arm In two places.
The new pustor of the Montrose
Methodist Episcopal church, Rev. I. N
Shlpman, has already won the hearts
of his congregation, not alone by his
preaching, but pleasant personality.
The water furnished by the Consum
ers' Water company is simply vile. The
reuson, undoubtedly, arises at the res
ervoir, which Is Blmply a huge pool of
stagnant water, full of dead leaves,
tho accumulation of winter's dirt,
dead snakes, frogs, fishes' and what not.
It Is no wonder that the color of the
water resembles the river Alphcus after
It had coursed through the stables of
Augias; and to drink it Is simply out of
the question. The water In Jones' lake
looks clear enough, yet the pumping
stations pipe Is so near the natural
outlet that It Is not strange that the
sediment Is taken with a rush. The
resevolr needs cleaning, the suction
pipe should be changed, or Montrose
will soon have an epedemlc of fever
Which will not soon be forgotten,
Daniel T. Brewster has returned from
a winter in the south.
The Montrose Telegraph and Tele
phone company's officers for the ensu
ing year aro as follows: President, Dr,
J. F. Butterfleld, secretary, W. C.
Crulserj treasurer, Harry D. Jones; di
rectors, Azur ijatnrop, v. v. iieynoius,
D. V. Gardner, J. F. Butterfleld and
Jesse Whiting. Poles have been ad
vertised for, and the work of equipping
tho town with a complete telephonic
servlc6 will be begun as quickly as pos
sible.
The rumors current regarding the
dlsbandment of Company G, Thirteenth
regiment, seem to have been a trifle
premature, although at the time were
correctly stated by The Tribune. The
members seem to realize that If the
company should dlbond It would be
many a long day before Montrose would
be again represented In Pennsylvania's
Nntlonnl Guard. Many who nad stated
that they would ask for a discharge,
aro now assuring the officers that
they will re-enllst. There Is a project
on foot for a new armory, and while It
Is still In the abstract, nevertheless
shows a spirit m the right direction.
Cupid has been busy here even If
the past winter was one continual
round of blizzards. Robert Wood wed
Miss Nettle M. Payne. Edward Farley
went to Auburn and Miss Hussen Is
now his wife, and there are others
looked for the near future.
