an advertising company, drove sixteen

pretty ycung lady, arrived at the Hunt

cloth clothes and white shirt bespat

was to be performed and. entering the
room wtwre the officiating Judge was
waiting for a witness, he drew a pistol
and attempted to shout Bunce. The
two scuffled, but the prospective
gToom was finally compelled to tlee for
his life. The screams of the female pat
rons of the hotel attractsd 500 peo
ple, who. seeing Bunce running hatless,
supposed him to be the offender and
pursued him.
He was captured three blocks away,
hiding In the g.-alnroom of a grocery
store. After proper explanations he
returned to the hotel, escorted by the
city marshal, and the ceremony was
performed. The doctor was later
found and arrested.

FAIR WILL COMPLICATIONS.
Heirs Want to Tent tho Validity of the
TntHt Clause.
San Francisco, July 4. The attorneys
and trustees and heirs under the Fair
will are said to lie desirous of testing
the validity of the trust clause of the
document first presented for probate.
It Is argued by the attorneys and heirs
under the Holographic will that the
trust to secure the first will Is Illegal,
and muoh time und money would be
saved by obtaining a legal decision on
this point. If, for instance, the trust
shoirld be declared void, then there
would be no objection to the document
If tihe heirs do not object to Its probate,
and they would ut once enter upon
their 'patrimony.
Thus all litigation would be nt an
end. If, on the other hand, the trust
clauses nhould be susflnined, action
could be had directly on the genuine
ness of the will, and the contest would
be. clear of entagllng collateral mat
ters. It is claimed that an agreement
has ibeen 'practically reached that the
validity of the trust clauses should be
tested at once.

GOING OUT OF
BUSINESS, POSITIVELY
The ill health of Manager Goodman will cause The
Empire Dry Goods Co. to go out of business alto
gether. The stock will be closed out until everything
is sold. Sale begins Saturday, July 6, at 10 a. rn.
Two days the store will be closed to mark every item in
store in plain figures. The' people of Scranton never
had such an opportunity to buy a staple, clean stock at
your own prices, and almost anything and everything in
the household line. It would be too expensive for us to
go into details as to what the stock consists of. Every
! body knows the line of goods we carry, and it is only a
question of how long .the stock will last at such sacrifice
prices. Building must be vacant by September i, and
every kind of goods must be closed, cost or below cost,
or at any rate. , Remember, Saturday, 10 o'clock at
the old stand, Goodman's Cut Price Store, 516
Lackawanna Avenue. 20 Salesladies wanted. .

There is, ami always has been, a certain
class ot people that, not knowing- why,
will up and suy, "iHin't a-o to this doctor,
and don't no to that one; what do you want
to ko to him for, why. he la only a quaok
and fraud." U-t us say rltht here that
for that class nf people we are really and
truly sorry. Mow can any one stand
up and openly condemn a physlrlun or
surseon rliiht In the Tare and proof of
t heir many wonderful cures, unless It Ixi
throuirh iKnorum-e nnd prejudice. No
nuin, woman or child with anything Mko
an ounce of bruins would dare attempt,
and I don't think, would Ik- Kullty of such
an open and iKnorant assertion. We hud
an Instance the past nwlt wh -re oiih of
our pa.tit-nts was sever--ly uttHctfd with
chronic rheumatism and had suffered with
most excruclntinic pains for the past throe
months, nimble to walk or even turn ov-r
in lied, and hud been treated by the most
emlner.it physicians In Scranton without
even finding temporary relief. They de
cided to rend for Ur. Hmlth and staff, at
312 Wyoming avenue, and strittiKe as it
may seem, which Is nevertheless true,
after one treatment he was able to wall:
a round quite fre'ly. A few days subse
quent to thnt a relative of his was uc
ciwled on the stre"t by a friend who in
quired after the pu lien's health. The real
live replied that he was on the road to re
covery and said that ho was beln treated
by Dr. Hmlth, whereto the friend replied
that he oiiKbt not to let those quacks treat
him, and that he himself would not een
tuku their medicines. To this we can only
SJiy, "Jod help him." What are we cum
init to when iKiioranco and prejudice can
be so openly shown nnd ntjlit in the face
and positive proof of the opiioslte. This
class of people we want no dealing with
whatever, but to the sensible and educated
we Invite a hearty and thorouKh InveHtl
Kalion of our method of heallnir. Come,
consult us free of charge from 9 a. m. to 5
p. m. daily. We would be pleased to see
you.
