The committee of twenty, appointed toy the Luzerne Bar association, to con duct the campaign for the appointment of Judge Charles E. Rice as one of the superior court judges, will leave for Harrlsburg at an early hour this morn lng, and at noon will nave on inter view with Governor Hastings. Stronger endorsements and testimonials than the oommlttee will carry with them have seldom, If ever, been presented' to a 1-ovaVnor of Pennsylvania in. the inter est of any applicant for an appoint ment. A large number of prominent nltlzens will accompany the committee. Judge Rice has srtong endorsements from every county in northeastern Pennsylvania, excepting Lackawanna, and the only reason lie has none from there is -because that county has an unexceptionable candidate of its own, and was not "Invaded" by the Luzerne oommlttee, a courtesy which will be ap preciated by Lackawanna. The delegation will take the 7.2G train this morning, ffhd return this evening. Members of the committee who have buen active In the Interest of Judge JKlce, express confidence that their mis slon to the plate capital today will be successful. Great importance Is at-t.-iched to Judge Rice's exceptionally aide record of fifteen years as a com mon pleas judge, and to the fact that he is so strongly endorsed by the bars of so many counties in the anthracite coal regions. Struck by Car. ' Nicholas Frederick, of Ashler, was struck by an electric car on Saturday night and nearly killed. He was trying to cross the double track on South Main street, near South, and in watch ing an up bound car did not see the down oar until too late. He was struck nd thrown several yards. . Dr. Fell dressed th injuries and he went home. ,( A Reteaue Violator. V Charles Knapp, of Duryea, was held In 11,000 ball for trial on Saturday by Commissioner' Hahn, on a charge of rectifying illegally and violating the revenue law. Messrs. Brundage -and Shaw seised the following lot of con traband stuff: A Jar partly tilled with burnt sugar; one bottle party filled with saeno of cognao brandy; on Dottle partly filled with essence of rye whiskey and one bottle partly filled with bead oil. - These - were used in rectifying spirits, without permission, and ranks next In the category of crime to keep lng an Illicit distillery. The penalty for the offense is a fine of no less than $1,000 nor more than $5,000, and Impris onment for no less than six months and no more than two years, with a for feiture of all spirits and other material used In the manufacture of liquors. POLITICAL POINTS. The Democratic county committee met on Saturday, the regular members being lurgcly represented by proxies. After pausing resolutions endorsing the Cleveland administration and denounc ing the late legislature. July 23 was fixed as the time for holding the county convention. The Democratic leaders pretend to be wry hopeful of redeem ing Luzerne county this year, and a ppeclul effort will be made to nominate an exceptionally good ticket. The committee, for some reason, deemed It advisable to hold the convention In ad vance of that of the Republlcun party. It Is now certain that there will be u lively contest between the Democratic factions In the selection of delegates to the national Democratic convention. Xot less than a dozen prominent Dem ocrats aspire to this honor. It is not certain, however, that the delegates will be chosen by the county conven tion next month. Editor Jack McCarthy, of Huzleton, waa In town the other day and dis coursed on the political situation. He freely expressed the opinion that even If the new county Is erected Hon. John l.eisenrlng will be re-nomlnated for congress next year, notwithstanding that the Wllkes-Barre politicians will demand a Luzerne county man, Mc Carthy Is a skilled politician and knows how to get In work that tells. He also expressed the opinion that the new county will not be so surely Democra tic as some people think. There is a good deal of speculation as to who would receive the appoint ment of common pleas judge In this county If the governor should appoint Judge Charles E. Rice to the bench of the new Superior court. Some think Lyman Hoses 'Bennett would be the man, while not a few are of the opinion that ex-Attorney General Henry W. Palmer would fit In the place. There are many able lawyers at the Luzerne bar, but It would be difficult to find one among the number who possess so fully the peculiar fitness for the Judiciary that has given Judge Rice his promin ence. But, then, men like Charles E. Rice are scarce in every county. Alex ander Farnham, Gains S. Halsey and Isaac P. Hand have all been suggested as possibilities In case a vacancy oc curs an the common pleas bench. Editor Tubbs, of the Mountain Echo, says he cannot understand why his name has been mentioned as a candi date for the legislature next year In his district. Probably the reason Is that a good many people think he would make an excellent state legislator, as editors always do. Teachers' Examinations. The examination committee. D. M. Hobbes, F. J. Reagan, J. O. Herman, Ella McCann and D. A. Davis, heard the following applicants at the high school Saturday morning: C. F. Cook, Bridget Rellly. Ella Quirk, Llllle Powell, Eva Hoyt, Miss M. E.

Frey, Mildred Merrill, Gussle McClellan, Harriet Davis, Katie Wil liams, Philip H. Meyers, Bella Mc Olynn, Fannie P. Dasch, Bessie V. But ler, Maude Gouldon and F. V. Dennis. Judge Mice's Oplnlou. Judge Rice on Saturday handed down an opinion In the matter of the Wllkes- Barre township school board, deciding that the board can not by any Injunc tion proceedings restrain Itself from electing a secretary. He did not decide whether they have the right to elect a secretary from among their member ship, but Intimated that the proper way to decide this question is to elect a sec retary from among themselves at a stated salary, and then have quo war rants proceedings begun to ascertain If the election would be legal.

TOR INSTANCE -Stripes of lavender, black, pale blue, salmon, pink and navy are seen on white grounds. Over these stripes are woven a white check-like figure which gives the design the appearance of a basket weave. Self-colored pat' ternings in stripes tire seen in various colors, the stripe being brought into prominence by sliowinc; a Uurker thread than that seen in the ground col ors. There are many other combinations such as diamond figures, chevron stripes, tweed effects, etc., which must be seen to be appreciated. An inspection is invited. We might add that we control the sale of this fabric in Scranton. 209 SSxSSihJ ue PHOLSTERED. 6o2 and Coi ,j Lack Ave., Cor. Adams. Lawyers.
