riolifoVratkms. The commute? on rew
lutlona. composed of C. H. Conl, J. L.
Welter and John II. Uando, miule their
jvpont. -which was unanimously advipt
ihI. The resolutions are tharn and In
oJsive, as Prohibition resolutions al
ways are.
After several speeches had been made
and committees appointed the conven
tion adourned until 1 p. m., but It was
past 2 o'clock when Chairman Nichols
calka tho afternoon sessiun to oruer.
After the several cotnmHttees had made

out any dllllcutty or delay the follow-
Ins: ticket was formed:
Sheriff. Albert Lameraux, of Jack
son; recorder, Jamea A. Dewy, New
port: coroner, Pr. T. M. Johnson, West
PNitston.
The following ptntlemen were ap
pointed to constitute the county coin

Cool, T. M. Furey, S. E. Marshal,
Henry S. Watts, John Shaffer, Dr. T.
01. Johnson and W. H. Jackson.
One of the features of the convention
was the harangue of Rev. J. C. Hoan,
the ministerial crank from Forest City,
who was present by Invitation, and
Hired his personal grievances In his re
lations -with the Wyoming conference.
He) made some Ptatements that brought
Rev. YV. H. Hiller to his feet, who made
eime pretty sharp cri-lclsms on Ho-
pan's allegation that the ministers of
the pospcl were making no efforts to
put down ths llquur evil. Mr. Hogan
Is manifestly an lmpric-;lcal sensation
alist, .and Phe Prohlb'i:Ion party will

A MlSSI.Vi HAN.
A C.Aso That Ought to tie Explained or In
vcstlsntod. For some time a Etory has been np
ponrintr In the columns of some of the
local papers about the disappearance
of a young Slav, named John Shinlskl,
who was employed as a laborer at No. 12
colliery, of the Plymouth Coal company.
As the story runs young Shiniski en
tered the mine but was not seen to
leave It, and the supposition 13 tht he
lost himself In the workings arid has
perished. He had been In this country
only a short time, spoke very little
English, and had worked In the No. 12
a few days only when he disappeared.
His clothes are at his boarding house,
end he had his board paid a month
In advance, bo It Is not believed that he
has decamped.
There ought to be a thorough Investi
gation of the cane. If the poor fellow
perished In the mines his remains
should be removed and given burial.
For some reason the miner for whom
he worked has not, so far as can be
learned, been Interrogated as to Shin
lskl's movements, during the time the
miner was at his work. There certainly
are men employed at No.-12 who are
competent to make a thorough search
of the mine. The company should see
that this la done. -
NOW THE SCHOOL BOARD.
A Question That Is Attracting Some At.
tcntlon and Dividing Sentiment.
"When It Isn't one thing. It's an
other," rermu-ked a prominent citizen
In a disgusted kind of way, alluding- tit
the controversy that has arisen with
reference to the election of a secretary
ff the Wilkes-Harre school board.
Heretofore the secretary has been elect
ed under the act of assembly of 1S74
which appears to provide that the sec
retary of tho board Khali ba one of the
directors. Now somebody has made
the discovery thnt an act of 18X5 super
cades that or 1874, and that the later
law provides that the secretary shall
nut be vl member of the board. Dr.
Weaver, one of the directors, called at
tc ntion -to this at the last meeting of
the board and wamted the oplnltm of
counsel, but a majority of the directors
wre opposed to raising the question
ur-tll the board was reorganized. So
the matter remains In abeyance for the
time being, but lawyers and others are
dl using Tho secretaryship Is
wliat cbh-e boys call a "soft snap" pret
ty good pay for the actual service ren-
dired. If It shall be decided that an
outsider mutt be elected there will be
a warm of candidates crowding each

DEATH OX THE RAIL.
A Young Mechanic Steals a Hide and Is
Killed.
A lamentable accident occurred nt
Ashley on Saturday evening by which
Harry Kline, a mojit worthy young
man, wns instantly killed. Toung Kline
was employed at Moore's bakery In this
city and having completed his day's
work proceeded to his home, at Ashley.
He boarded a Jersey Central freight
train, and when the train reached a
point near his home he lumped off. Un
happily a passenger train came rushing
by en the other track at the moment
he lumped and he was caught and
dragged under the wheels. The body
was frightfully mangled and death was
Instantaneous. The accident occurred
within sight of the home of his par
ents, wl:h whom ho Hved. He was an
exemplary young man and his sad
death Is mourned In the entire com
munity. POLITICAL POINTERS.
E. W. Garrison, of Shlckshlnny, will
again be a candidate for the Republi
can nomination for sheriff. He came
near making the nomination three years
ago. He Is exceeding popular through
a large section of the county, where he
Is well known, and would make an ideal
candidate.
i la iM thnt e-Cnncrressman Os
borne would not object to a return
to political life, and hopes, as a starter,
to be chosen one of the delegates to
the Republican national convention.
From present Indications he will not
succeed.
a
One of the firat bills Honorable John
Lelsenrlng will Introduce In the next
congress will provide for a federal
building In Wilkes-Barre, and he will
make his best effort to put it througn.
If he succeeds his re-nomlnatlon next
year will be made by acclamation, so far
as Wlllces-Barre is concerned.
a a a
The suggestion of Honorable Theo
dore Hart, of the Plttston Gazette, as
one of the delegates to the next Re
plication national convention, meets
with very general favor. The Republican
editors of Luzerne have unrecognized
claims that should be liquidated by
the party when honors are distributed.
-w
The Chan Cnse.
On Saturday fourteen more victims
of tho Chan defalcation placed their
claims In the hands of Alderman Dono-
hue. These claims aggregate a total
of $671.60, the largest bring $160 and
the smallest XD.4 Nearly all the vic
tims are Hungarians and Polanders,
w ho placed the money In the hands of
Chan to be trarrsmlttd to then- friends
In the old courrtry. It Is believed that
nearly all the claims have now been
prese.nited. Nothing, so far as the pub
lic knows, to being heard from Chan In
addition to what has been made public.

On Selt.urd.ry night, about 11 o'clock,

miles from che latter place an unknown

Calls: It Theft.
This Is the sumewhat emphoitle -but
not very elegant wa the Sunday
leader speaks of Lackaiwanna: "Let
Lackawanna, keep the territory she
stole from us. We don't want It, or the
people who dw3ll therein. After es
caping the loose laws of Lackawanna
they could never become accustomed
to the laiws f Luzerne. We ,have
enough desperadoes In Hazleton."

PITTST0N.
The property holders on William, Pul
ton and Broad Btreets are greatly In
sunced over the aotlon of the Scranton
Suburban and Plttston Street Railway
company In attempting to lay the
T rail along those streets. The con
tractor of tho street railway company
claims the right to lay the T rail under
terms of the supplcmcntry ordinance
passed last December. The property
holders claim thnt the ordinance was
not properly made a law, and are taking
steps to hold the contractor to the terms
of tho original ordinance. Without re
gard for the protests of the property
holders, a gang of men were set to
work on Fulton street Saturday morn
Ing laying the T rails. Written notices
were served on the contractors at 10
o'clock by members of tho street com
mlttee. Mayor Maloney, at the request
of the citizens Interested and members
of the street committee, directed Street
Commissioner Carroll to notify the con
tractors to stop all work at noon, which
wns done. The matter will be brought
before tho special meeting of the coun
cil this evening, and some definite no
tion will be taken on the conflicting
uiuinances.

DO NOT BE
Printed India
WE DESIRE TO SAY.
FIBSTThat other Swivel Silks advertised at $i as the best goods of their class produced, Is mis
leading. Our goods at 31c are superior la every respect to these second and third rate goods which arc be
ing oflercd as equals. We did not know that Swivel Silks were an imported article, perhaps they are; but
we don't think it good policy to handle European Swivels when better goods can be had in our own Amer
ica. Our Swivels are made in America, by the best maker of these goods in America, and they are sold all
over the country and are exported In large quantities to Europe, too. Europeans would not buy American
Swivels unless they were better than their own. We have the original and the best American Swivel Silk
AND THE PRICE IS 31 CENTS.
SECONDLYThat Printed India Silks offered by us at 37 1-2& arc an Irreproachable bargain. They
are not the kind that crack and pull, but they are of the class that bear the stamp of true merit and are
everything we claim them to be. It is a Silk Bargain that never has been known in Scranton before. It
cannot be matched by any other house at present, and probably will never be duplicated.
The throngs of buyers who have purchased of these two wonderful offerings is the best evidence of
their superiority. There are still good assortments left in both lines.

oi milling STRICTLY OLD WHEAT until the new crop
Is fully cured. New wheat is now upon the market, and
owing to the excessively dry weather many millers are
of the opinion that it fa already cured, and in proper
condition for milling. Y'ashburnCrosby Co. will take
no risks, and will allow the new wheat fully three
months to mature before grinding.
This careful attention to every detail of milling has
