WILKES-BflRRE.
Tho Tribune has opened a branch of
floe at No, , tanning building. Publlo
Square, WIHces-Darre, for tho transaction
ot business. Tho publishers propose to
extend the circulation of The Tribune In
Wllkes-Barre and surrounding towns,
and to that end will present a very com
plete department of Luxerne county npws.
For success in this undertaking depend
ence la placed solely upon the superiority
of Tho Tribune aa a purveyor of all the
newa of tho day domestic, foreign, local,
commercial and financial. The general In
terests of the people of Wllkes-Ilarro and
the Wyoming valley will have In The Trib
une an earnest advocate, editorially and
otherwise. It Is the purpose ot the pub
lishers to Issue ft newspaper aa valuable
to the general public as the metropolitan
dallies, and deliver It to the people
throughout northeastorn Pennsylvania
from three to Ave hours eahllor than the
Philadelphia and Mew York papers can
teach them,
, BASE BALL ENTHUSIASM.
The vVilkes-Barre Lovers of the Game
Greatly Elated.
The 'Wllkes-Barre club has made a
magnificent record up to thla time.
The winning; of three straight games
from the Bcrantoa club was all that
waa necessary, to raise Wllkes-Barre
enthusiasm to the top-notch. Next to
the rapid upward, climbing of tho local
olub nothing could have so much added
to the pleasure of the base ball lovers
of this towa.es has the toboggan elide
of the Scranton club, t As the Wilkos
Barro club ascended the Bcranton club
descended The proverbial Tlvalry of
the two towns will break out even In
so trivial a matter 'as base ball. The
local club 4s being exalted to the skies,
and. all manner of good-tfiaturetf fun
poked at Bcranton. Later In the- sea
son, -when the re-actlon sets in, and
the Wllkes-Barre club -goes toboggan
ing and the Scranton club goes a bal
looning, what a howl there will be at
this end of .the line!
For the time being Wllkes-Barre Is
within sight of the head of the col
umn. This condition of things Is very
much enjoyed here, but It is too good
to continue: The season Is young yet
and even Scranton base ball clubs have
sometimes, shown the recuperating
powers so characteristic of the Electric
City.
RUN DOWN THE BURGLARS.
The Gang 'Operating In This City Should
Bo Captured.
Almost every night one or more
houses are entered by burglars, and
there Is no longer any doubt that there
is a gang of reckless criminals located
here. A determined effort should be
made to capture them. There is some
evidence that they are not profession
als, and it Is not improbable that the
thieves reside here. But whatever their
status as criminals, they are desperate
. and reckless and If possible should be
halted In their career. They are not
merely burglars but Incendiaries as well,
as Is shown by the numerous buildings
that have been fired iwlthln the past
week. The police of this otty are. prob
ably of average vigilance, but up to
this time they have not been able to
accomplish anything. The Incendiary
fires have been discovered and extin
guished by private citizens, and such
burglaries as have been nipped In the
bud and made abortive was also the
work of others than the police. The of
ficers should keep a sharp eye on the
houses where criminals are likely to
congregate. There are a number of
such houses In Wllkes-tBarre. If the
police are unable to properly cover the
ground then detectives should be em
ployed. Burglars and Incendiaries are
two dangerous classes of criminals, and
they are plying their trade to an alarm
ing extent In Wllkes-Barre at this time.
COURT HOUSE BIDS.
They Closed Yostcrday and Only Flvo
Were Offered.
How little Interest ha been taken In
the new court house farce the county
commissioners have been playing is
Shown by the fact that yesterday noon,
when the bids were closed only five had
been received. The bidders are Wilson
J. Smith, of Wllkes-Barre; Allen Wal
ton, of Hummelstown, Pa. John F.
Coots, of Omaha; Burnett Record com
pany, of Minneapolis, and Henry
Suhenck & Son, of Pittsburg, Each of
the bidders gave a certified check for
S per cent, of the amount of his bid.
The county, commissioners .were In
(session with their counsel during the
afternoon, tout finally announed that
they would give no publllty to the bids
.before next Monday. Neither from the
commissioners nor from the bidders
could anything be learned as to the
amount of any of the bids. No Inter
est attaches to yesterday's proceeding.
The commissioners are enjoined from
accepting amy of the bids and all they
can do la to examine them and await
the further action of the court The
whole business has dwindled to the pro
portions of a first-class farce.
" The Mutilated Asphalt.
' Every week new hole are chopped
Into the asphalt streets and none of the
old ones are- being repaired. It 1a
shameful the way the handsome and
expensively paved street ot this city
are being mutilated. It la to be expected
that In a city Ilka this, where all man
ner of supply pipes are under the pave,
it become necessary at times to break
through to make repairs, but It may
also be reasonably expected that when
this la done all damage be repaired as
speedily, and aa perfectly as possible.
Nearly ' every asphalted street ' in
Wllkes-Barre has been full of holes of
all sizes for months, and they are not
even filled; with ashes or cinders to level
them with the urnundlng .surface.
Attention has again and again been
called to this shameful negligence.- At
least two persons have been severely
hurt by being thrown from their bicy
cles In riding Into these holes at night
It hi a wonder that the city has not
been mulcted In damages. :
Licenses were yesterday Issue by
the oltrk of the court to the following:
James Brogan and Hilary Nelson, of
Newport; Samuel'1. Jones and Maggie
Greenwalt, of .'Hazleton; Alex Juvatlz
and Mary; Madrok, of Pitts ton;. Leo
Marvenus and Maria Ossanna, of Der
ringer. '
' ' ... '.
The annual! convention of;, the Ger
man Cathollo societies of Pennsylvania
will be held In this city on the 17, 18 and
19 of the present month, and will be
composed of delegates from a large
number, of societies.. Honesdale, Ash
land,. Allentown, Scranton, Carbondale,
Plttston. ' Nantlcoke, Hazleton, Shen
andoah, ' Qlrardvllh), i Mahonay, Potts
vUle, . Mjnersvllle, St Clair, Manch
Chunk, Lehlghton,' Catasauqua, Beth
lehem and Easton, Pittsburg, 'Erie,
will be-represented, as well as tnany
other towns and cities. On the 18th
the second day of the convention, the
delegates will be banquctted, and the
third day there will be a great plcnto
at Mountain Park. Elaborate prepara
tions are being made by the local so
cieties to make the convention as pleas
ant as possible for the visiting dele
gates. POLITICAL POINTS.
A prominent Republican of Hazleton
was In the city esterday and In. the
oourso of a talk on county politic) re
marked that probably tho lower ' end
would not present any candidate for
places on tho Republican county ticket
this year. Ait least he had not heard
of any one In that section who aspired
to such honors. Ho did think, how
ever, that Hazleton would ask for one
of tho delegates to the next national
convention and thought that section
was entitled to the recognition, and
could get It if the demand were mude
In it ho right spirit and with insistence.
There will not be less .than a dozen
candidates for the Republican nomina
tion for sheriff this year, and nearly
every section of the county will be rep
resented. For the other county offices
to bo filled there will be an equally
lively demand. Candidates are spring
ing up In every direction. The Repub
lican successes In recent years have
cultivated a lively appetite for the good
places in tho court house.
lion. John M. Oarman, who repre
sents tho dominant faction of the
Pennsylvania Democracy In Luzerne
county, will not only be one ot the dele
gates to itho next Democratic national
convention, but he will also designate
who shall be his colleague from this
district. In view of this fact a goodly
number of prominent Democrats nre
cultivating the good graces of the ex
dlstrlct attorney and friend of National
Chairman Harrlty.
Tho most quiet Democratic politician
in Luzerne county JuBt now Is ex-Congressman
Hlnes. He is nut saying a
word, at least for publication, but
H Is believed he Is doing a good deal
of thinking and planning for the fu
ture. Up-to-date Isaac Livingston and E.
P. Bogert are tho only candidates for
postmaster of Wllkes-Barre actively
in the field. Mr. Bogert has a news
paper of his own to back him up, whilo
Colonel Boyd, of tho News-Dealer, will
champion Mr. LlvingRton. It has been
Intimated that at the proper time XInjor
J. Ridgeway Wright will appear as a
candidate, and if ha does he will make
a lively light for It.
Editor Tubbs, of the Mountain Echo,
Is frequently mentioned as a probable
candidate for the legislature In his dis
trict next year. He would rather have
gone to Harrlsburg as the llrst Repre
sentative of Grow county, but since
there is to be no Grow county, he might
bo prevailed upon to represent a piece
of good old Luzerne.

tained.

HONESDALE.
. The Amity Base Ball club defeated
the Second Young Men's Christian As
sociation club of 'Scranton on Memorial
Day. .Score, 15 to 13. It Is not usually
considered In good taste to call down a
visiting club, but the young men from
the Electric City did not have on their
best behavior. The Wayne Independent
rather forcibly says "that such a con
tinual round of kicking and braying
was never before heard on this stde of
the Mooslcs." Then to add the last
straw to the already overburdened
back of a patient crowd, the Scran
tonlans kicked on a decision of the um
pire, picked up their bats and started
for home amid the scorchingdeers of a
Honesdale crowd of men, women, boys
and girls. An act ot this manner was
not expected from a team of the Young
Men's Christian association of Scran
ton, and it Is sincerely hoped that they
will be given the opportunity ot re
trieving themselves In the eyes of a
Honesdale audience.

front and the spectators expected to
see a grand crash, but Just before
reaching it one of the horses fell, which
swerved them to the left, and averted
what would have been a ruinous mis
hap, If they had continued in the di
rection they were going. After the
one horse fell the team was quickly
stopped, and barring the breaking of
a granite monument cap and laming
the horse somewhat, no damage re
sulted. Mrs. William Hunter, of Dorrance
