V IN TROUBLE AGAIN.
A Had Scranton Woman nadly Worries
Mayor Nichols.
When Mayor Nichols made his first
raid on houses of lU-fame he closed up
the establishment of Madamo Brandt,
wboftad emigrated toerv when Scranton
became too warm for. her. She skipped
out, aa was Jiopdfor all time. Hut

The pressing need of more hotel ac
commodations In this ctty Is felt more
and more every day, ' but there Is no
move tn the direct km of a new hotel.
If a large convention of any kind should
be held here the Influx of strangers
could not possibly be provided for. This
Is a remarkable condition of things (or
a cHy of 40,000 people. It is a fact that
the city of Carbondale, with less than
a third the population, can provide
more people with good hotel accommo
dations than WUkes-Barre. The same
is true- of such- towns as Alleniown,
Bethlehem and Eastern. .
It ia surprislns; that some enterprising
capitalists from Scranton or elsewhere
have not before this taken advantage
of the opportunity, secured a site and

POLITICAL POINTS.
Th Democratic lTlmarlcs oa-Saturday.
pTobnMo Winners.
From this time until next November
politics will occupy more of the atten
tion of the people of -Lucerne thain any
other topic. On Saturday the Dem
ocratic primaries were hold, but there
was much loss excitement than la cus
tomary on ruch occasions, and In a ma
jority of districts a llffht vote was
polled. The county ollloes to be tilled
this year are jude. sheriff, recorder of
deed, controller and some miir ones,
William S. MoLean appears to be the
favorite candidate for t'he Judgeship,
but the other aspirants may make com
mon cause against hltn and -bring about
his defeat. A powerful clement In the
l-Vmooraoy have an old .pruitffe against
AIoLean and they may improve this
opportunity to gratify their revenge.
II I! !!
The contest for the nomination of
rherlft 'will be between IVtter wml
Sutton, with the cha-noes about equal.
For th other ..HHvs there are a num
ber of asplr.inn-. 'but there l little- in
the result of the delegate elections to
im.livi.ite who the favorites are. In
fact, the primaries attracted little at
tention. (Many Ivmooratw are opposed

II II II
The Republican are warming up as
tV day for holding the primaries ap
pr ;:chcs. The adherents of Senator
Qim are greatly diyplrlttil by the suc-c--.e9
everywhere of the Hastings men,
and appear to have practically given
up t'he light except in the Second Legis
hi.ive district, whore ex-Congressman
Shur.k is exerting himself In the Inter
es; of the senator, and Is eald to be
dolt? earnest work. All the indica
tions, however, point to a solid Hast
ings delegation from Luzerne. The
laic.?: scheme of the Qttayltes 1 the
putting forward of the threat that if
Quay !- 'beaten he will defeat the pas
sage of the bill for a government build
ing in Wll'ies-Barre. Tha.t threat will
make more votes amlnst Senator Quay
than tor him. Tt has already injured
hint materially In Wllkes-llarre.

As the situation stands today Walton
Garrison, of Phlckshlnny, will receive
the Republican nomination for sheriff
an 1 he will make an exceptionally for
midable candidate. He is a clear able
and honest man and very popular per

JUST ABOUT THE TRUTH.
From the Post-Express.
Nearly all the periodical writing In the
country Is done by about a score of people,
who have reputation nnd facility, and
who are called upon with unfailing regu
larity to discuss all manner of topics.
The literary du vices, the opinions, the In
formation, of these old hacks are fa
miliar to the great public which Is utter
ly Weary of them. An Intelligent reader
who picks up a new magazine or a review
and tinds a paper by one of these mental,
moral, literary and political hash ma
chines, seldom thinks of glancing at It.
He knows beforehand what It will con
tain. He can tell precisely what statistics
will be set forth, what authorities will
be quoted, what fullicles will be used
and what lessons will be Inculcated.
Too Mediocre.
From Truth.
He Won't you be my wife? I have pad
dled my own canoe for years and feel
sure that I could support you.
She Cnnoe! Nonsense! If you had said
you had sailed your own yacht for years
I might have considered your proposal.

Those cobbles on Main street that
have have so long a time been an eye
sore to merchants and all who have an
Interest In the wellfare of Pltston, ars
being moved. On Saturday three teama
were employed drawing them to out-of-the-way
places. The nest Is the pav
ing. We undestond that the Barber
Asphalt company Is ready to commence
this work, but that some of the prop
erty holders still adhere to the old
cobble atones. The present financial
strain of wtvich the people of Plttston
now complain would be much- relieved
If the city officials would compel more
cleanliness about, not only the Main
street, but the back streets and alleys.
There 4s, it has often been demon
strated, no Incentive to trade so great
as a neat, clean appearance. Will our
city fathers make a complete revolu
tion In this respect, or will we still con
tinue to live In our present filthy condi
tion. Tickets for the Wllkea-Barre Press

HUMOROUS EPIGRAMS.
Swift vindicated poets from aspersions
concerning their Intelligence In the fol
lowing lines, probably Inspired by a sim
ilar quatrain In the French of Saint
Marthe: Sir, I admit your general rule.
That every poet Is a fool;
Hut you yourself may serve to show It,
. That every fool la not a poet.
Pope was, probably, our greatest master
of epigram. Here Is what he has to say
about the ordinary ruck of versifiers:
And moon-struck poets midnight vigils
, keep, ,
Bleeplesa themselves to give to others
sleep.
He himself did not escape being the sub
ject of joculur epigram. It being con
sidered that tie did not give stitliclent
credit to Browne, who, as he admitted,
"worked ten whole years with him" In
translating Homer's "Odyssey," a con
temporary, John Henly, wrote:
"Pope came off clean with Homer; but,
they say,
Browne went before and kindly swept the
way."
In the way of mock epitaphs we have
the still more severe one penned by Dry
den: Here lies my wife! here let her liel '
Now she's at rest, and so am I.
Coleridge's reference to a vocalist was
even more personal:
Swans sing before they die; 'twere no bad
thing
Did certain persons die before they sing.
An unknown wit thus contemptuously
speaks of opera:
Opera, like a pillory, may be said
To nail our ears down and expose our
head
And here Is Carrlck's unkind estimate of
Sir John Hill, a physician and dramatist;
For physio and farces his equal there
scarce Is;
His farces are physic, his physic a farce
is.
Now, ladles for your side of the case.
You are Indebted to Theodore Hook for
the following dlatrlbo concerning the un
fortunate marriage of a Miss Honeyi
- This pair In matrimony
Go most unequal BnaokjJ i
He gets all the honey
And she gets all the whacks
The marriage of pale-faced lady to a
red-nosed husband Inspired the muse of
an observant poet thus:
Whence comes It that In Clara's facs
The lily only has its place?
Is tt because the absent rose
Has gone to paint her husband's nose?
Characteristics, feelings and emotions
have all been the themes of humorous epi
gram. A hypocrite is thus castigated:
Joe hates a hypocrite which doth show
Self love Is not a fault with Joe.

NEATLY TAKEN IN.
Two young men were standing on the
platform of a Chestnut street car yester
day, when a XushlonaBly dressed irlrl
entered and seated herself at the for
ward end. "A picture of Innocence and
beauty," remarked one of the young men,
adjusting his tie." Innocence?" exclaimed
the othor. "I'd like to bet a dollar that If
I fro In and sit next to her she will open a
conversation with mo." The first speaker
sized tip the girl agnta and accepted the
bet. His companion sauntered In, and to
the nmnxemcnt of the observer on the rear
platform, the young' ludy smiled and
spoke, and In a moment the couple were
conversing as If they had known each
other for a lifetime. Presently the pre
sumptions young man beckoned to his
friend, who thought he was to share In a
"pood thing." Heonly realised how he had
been taken In when his companion Intro
duced his sister. Philadelphia Record.
