WILKES-BflRRE.
The Trlbuno hn3 opontMl n branch of
fice, at No. 28, Lnnnir.K Uu'.lrtlnK, Tubl'.o
Square, "Wllkes-Uarre, for tha transaction
of business. The publishers propose to
extend the circulation of The Tribune In
WHkeg-Barro and surrounding towns,
and to that end will present a very com
plete department of Luzerne county nows.
For success In this undertaking depend
ence Is placed solely upon the superiority
of Tho Tribune as a purveyor of all the
news of the day domestic, forel(?n, local,
commercial and finnnclal. Tho general In
terests of the people of Wllkes-Hnrre nnd
the Wyoming; valley will have In The Trib
une' an earnest advocate, editorially and
otherwise. It Is tho purpose of tho pub
lishers to lssuo a newspaper as valuable
to tho general public as the metropolitan
dallies, and deliver It to tho people
throughout northeastern Pennsylvania
from throe to live hours enhller than the
.Philadelphia and New York papers can
reach them. .
WANTS THAT $10,000.
Architect Meyers, It Is Sold, Makes De
mand for tho Second Instalment.
Yesterday It was rumored thnt Archi
tect Meyers had made formal demand
upon the county commissioners for tho
second Installment of $10,000 under his
contract with them. As has heretofore
been stated In these columns. County
. Treasurer Reed declares he will not
honor the warrant of the commission
ers for the payment of any money to
Meyers for his new court house plnns,
unless ordered to do so by the court.
There Is very little doubt In the mind of
any one that this Becond Instalment
of 10,000 will have to be paid in the
end. The county Is unquestionably re
sponsible for airy obligations the com
missioners may contract. The com
missioners bound thmselves by con
tract to pay to Meyers $10,000 in ad
vance and $10,000 more when his com
pleted plans for the court house were
passed over to the commisslonern.
Meyers has compiled with the condi
tions of the contract, and the commis
sioners cannot escape. The treasurer
may compel Meyers to wait some time
for bis money, but that is all.
Meyers is beginning- to realize thnt
there Is trouble ahead, and that no
new court house will ever be built on
his famous second-hand plan. The best
he can do is to try to collect his sec
ond instalment of $10,000, and abandon
the field. In any event he will have a
good thing of It. An architect does not
often have the opportunity of sellinc;
a set of second hand plans for $20,000.
He ought to be satisfied with the $10,
000 he has already received.
BOLD FIRE BUGS.
Four Attempts Mode to Start Incendiary
lires.
Yesterday morning It became known
that late during the previous night no
less than four attempts had been made
to fire buildings, but fortunately In
each instance without success. The
first fire was started at Robblns" mill
on East Market street. A mass of cot
ton waste saturated with oil had been
placed on some timbers and Ignited.
A brakeman on the Wllkes-Barre and
Eastern railroad happened along, saw
the blaze and extinguished It before
any damage was done.
The horse collar factory, near Clair's
hotel, on Baltimore street, was dis
covered to be on Are about midnight
by Mr. Clare, who managed to extin
guish the names with the assistance of
a man named O'Donnell. A little later
the mill of Mr. Sllvius was fired, sat
urated cotton waste bavins; been
..placed against the building on the out
side. This fire was extinguished by
a Jersey Central braltemnn, who was
passing by and saw the blaze. About
2 o'clock the watchman at Paine &
Co.'s packing house discovered that the
barn, which contained Devon horses,
had been flreo", but he succeeded In ex
tinguishing the flames before any dam
age was done.
They Aro Waiting.
The News-Dealer asks: "What are
the friends of Judge Rice doing to se
cure his selection as one of the Judges
of the new appellate court in the event
of the bill becoming a law?" That
question is easily answered. After the
bill has become a law if it does tha
frienda of Judge Rice will begin to
think the time has come to get to work
in his Interest. They will potter around
for a week or two, consulting among
each other as to the best methods of
attaining success. Some morning they
will wake up to find that the governor
has made the appointments, then they
will get mad and declare that Luzerne
always gets left, and in that declara
tion they will be Just about right. Lu
zerne "gets left" simply because the
politicians who are in command here
lack the vim and energy that charac
. terlzes political leaders In other coun
ties of the state.
A Young Tough.
Mayor Nichols had before him yester
day morning a young tough named
John Drake, who has been a source of
great trouble to his friends for some
time. He lives in the city and is about
20 years of age. It appears that Drake
entered a saloon and made himself ob
noxious. He refused to leave and when
the bartender attempted to eject him
lie received a vicious blow in the face.
The mayor fined him $5 and costs, in
default of which he was sent to jail.
Drake has been before the mayor on
former occasions. .
Fell from a Cor.
Ex-County Auditor George Rymer, a
crippled war veteran, who has met
-with frequent accidents owing to physi
cal infirmity, fell while attempting to
' board a trolley car for Kingston this
morning, and received a severe shock
to his spine. Medical aid was sum
moned and he was removed to the home
of his daughter In this city.
Wives Too Numerous. ,
Frank Simskl, a young Polish
butcher residing at Plymouth, has a
good deal of trouble on his hands, ow
ing to the fact that he had Just one
more wife than the law allows In this
country. Frank came to the United
' States a few years ago, was Industrious
and frugal and soon saved enough
money to start In business for himself.
He prospered and wanted a wife.
Finding a comely . Polish maiden he
married ter, and everything seemed
lovely, until Tuesday, when into his
shop rushed a young Polish woman
who seemed to be overjoyed to meet
Women

Mines SUnt Down. '
The Hanover Coal company's mines,
at Sugar Notch, have suspended In
definitely. One of the officials of the
company explains to a local newspaper
that the coal trade has been so com
pletely demoralized by the largo com
panies that the lndlvdual operator has
only the alternative of mining and
selling his coal at a loss or not mining
at a,U. Under these circumstances the
Hanover company has decided to shut

TO our
Washburn-Crosby Co. wish to assure their many rat
rons that they will this vcar hold to their usual custom
of millins 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 aro
ot the opinion that it is already cured, and in proper
condition for milling. Washburn-Crosby Co. will tako
no risks, and will allow the new wheat fully thrco
months to mature before grinding.
This careful attention to every detail of milling has
E laced Washburn-Crosby Co.'s flour far above other
rauds.
