The ' tent In which Evangelist
Schlverea. preaches each nlshl at th
head of Uurlield avjT thronged
by crow da of people. katlur to hrar
the eloquent aermoil reached. 1 n
work being done In thwrfity thus far U
very great, and the people show how
they are interested when the tent I
crowded each evening. Not only do
people from our own city attend, hut
many from Mayfleld. Jermyn nnd For
est City nre also seen, they belli near.y
as anxious to hear an the Carbondal
' people. Thursday night's meeting was
probably the largest in attendance of
any yet held. There must have been
l.r.00 present, as all the available room
was occupied.
Karh meeting Is opened with song
service, and the will with which the
congregation Join In the well-known
hymns shows the great Interest of
those present.
Today there will be Bible readings
held in the Baptist church at X.'M
o'clock. On Saturday the meeting will
be for men only. A service
for mothers and wives only
will be held, on Sunday afternoon at
3.30 o'clock. At 4 o'clock a service for
the young ladles will take place. If
the pastors of the different churches
are willing a service will he held Sun
day morning at 9 o'clock. This service
will e over In time for regular church
services. During the service Thursday
evening Mr. Wolfsohn sang a hymn
that had never been sung before. It
was called "Looking This Way."
Yesterday during the noon hour a
meeting was held at the Pelaware and
Hudson locomotive shops. It was
largely attended and thought to be
very successful by Mr. Schlverea. The
other ahops of the city will be visited
and similar meetings held. At to
night's meeting, for men. special maslo
by a double quartette will be sung.
RESOLUTION SIGNED.
Mayor Hendrlck Affixes Ilia Signs tor to
the Sewer Document.
The resolution providing for the ex
tension of the main sewer has been
signed by Mayor (Hendrlck. The reso
lution provides for the extension ac
cording to the plans on file at the
office of City Engineer Frlck. This res
olution has caused a great deal of dis
cussion and debate in the councils,
and the extension had to be made, as
: It Is at present a great nuisance, and
the odor arising from it unhealthy and
unpleasant. The Delaware and Hud-
son want money for the right of way,
and this stopped any work for the
present. 'Mayor Hendrlck has seen
Land Agent Weston, but what the re
sult was he has not yet given out.
But as he has signed the resolution
It would seem that the Delaware nnd
Hudson will be lenient In the affair
and that no exhorbitant sum be asked.
The matter may be put before the di
rectors of the road, and the result Is
looked forward to with great interest
THE REPUBLICAN CLUB.
New Officer Are Elected at the Meeting at
AwmNv Hall.
A meeting of the Republican club of
this city was held Thursday evening
at Assembly hall. The meeting was
not very large, but this was made up
In the enthusiasm manifested. This
meeting is the ripening of the cam
paign in this city, and the signs at
present of a hard battle In November,
although only minor officers are to be
elected. The reorganization of the Re
publican club was under the best of
nuspice3. It was determined at the
meeting to have some well-known
speakers address the club In the near
future to put some life In the Republi
cans of the city and prepare them for
the coming fight. In the absence of
President Humphrey, vice-president
Van Gorder occupied the chair.
The following new officers were elect
ed: President, Ci. F. Swigart; vice-president,
G. B. Van Gorder: secretary,
Arthur Locke; treasurer, C. N. Bron
son. TENNIS TODAY.

terest, as each member of the club Is

the same. Those of the club who hava

MATERIALS ORDERED
and Work on Spring Street Is to lie
Pushed at Once.
Th great trouble of getting the reso
, lut Ion for the Improvements on Spring
Itreet passed and the subsequent mis
take in awarding the contract began
to make the people who had petitioned
for the Improvement fearful less it
would now be too late to do the work.
Their fears may rest, however, as the
Improvement will be completed this
Tall.
Contractor John Booth, to whom the
lob was finally awarded, was up the
line arranging for the materials nec
essary, and he expects them at once.
They will probably be h" re 'by the latter
t, part .of next week and as soon as they
arrive a large force of men will be put
to work and the job pushed to com
pletion as soon as possible,

safely. As If the steeepness was not
enough In itself, the condition of the
roads is somtthirg ileal ly as bad.
Time and a-;:ln complaints were
made to the uoiincll. Lut nothing was
done till recently, when a resolution
providing' for the work was passed.
The change wiil be very great when the

IN THE CELLAR.
An Ancry Husband ll.-.ds a Forbidden
Cnl'cr.
Another ense held before Alderman
Jones Thursday proved to be very In
teresting. Savurlo Ambrose was th.
person who was arrested. He resides
on Hclniont street, and his sister-in-law.
Mrs. Cattarlna. lives in Rlectrle
alley. Ambrose has been very atten
tive to Mrs. Cnttnrlna and was a fre
quent visitor. Mr. Cnttarlna became
Jealous of the oft repeated calls, and
forbade Ambrose to enter the house.
.However, Thursday when Mr. Cntta
rlna reached home, the unwelcome vis
itor was found. The woman shouted
for him to go to the cellar and hide, and
he did so. The nngry husband pur
sued, at least he started to. but being
unarmed nnd fearing lest the cornered
man might tire upon him, hastily re
treated audi went to an alderman,
where a warrant was sworn out. Am
brose Is now under $.".00 ball.
AN INTERESTING CASE.
Sub-Contractor Sues the Contractor He
roic Alderman Jones.
Thursday evening a case that at
tracted a great deal of attention was
tried before Alderman Jones. The par
ties in the case are William Cox, of this
city, plaintiff, and Contractor Schroe
der. of Scranton, defendant. Sehroedor
received the contract for erecting a por
tion of the Klotx Bros.1 silk mill, and he
sub-let the furnishing of the stone to
Cox, who has a quarry near the city.
A dispute arose as to whether the
stone for the foundation of several pil
lars should be a footing stone or not.
Mr. Sehroeder accordingly ordered sev
eral carloads of the stone which lie
said was named In the specification and
the cost, $2S5. taken from Cox's con
tract price. tMr. Cox Is now suing to
recover this.
Cut an Artery.
While at his work. Car Repairer
Thomas Loughney, son of Patrick
Loughney. met with a painful accident,
which will keep him from pursuing hi
duties for some time. iLoughney was
repairing an empty gravity car and
was using a hatchet. In some manner
a blow from the hatchet missed and
instead struck his left hand and cut a
deep gash in it. It bled profusely and it
was found that an artery had been sev
ered. 'Dr. J. 8. NMles was called to dress
the wound and it was found that four
stitches were necessary to close It.

Israel Dickinson W!in arrested on t"
f.ilr grounds yesterday by Sheriff
Knapp In resrwuise to a mersnga re
ceived by the latter Buying that R
person of his description had shot and
mor.'nlly wounded William, Pweitxrr. of
Noithmoreland township. The affair,
ns rumored upon the ntivets r.r.d by the
he.t Information obtainable, was as
follows: Svvellzer Is a well-to-do man,
who formerly lived In Kingston, but a
few years since came up and bought a
farm in 'Noi thmoreland township, thin
county, where he has since resided.
Thursday night he wns awakened by
hearing someone prowling around out
side tlie house, trylnar to get In. Me
tired his shotgun and apparently
woiiiuli'd the intruder, who returned
the tire, mortally wounding Sweliser.
The yount ninn lodged In jail answer
the description given, and. It Is said,
has a charge of shot In his less. There
seem to be some strange things about
the matter, however. People who at
tended the fair yesterday from the
vicinity of Sweltzei's farm knew noth
ing of the alleged shooting. It also ap
pears that young Dickinson has just
been discharged from the Wilkes-Ham?
hospital, where he underwent an opera
tion that deprived him of one eye.
Under the circumstance.. It seems un
likely that he would engage In any
such depredations us he is charged
with. He will have a heurlng' as soon
as witnesses can be simimored, when
further developments may be expected.
The personal property of C. C. Dp

spects. The display of vegetables and

ers of the county and enjoyable to the
visitors. Prizes were offered to the
grangers making the best exhibits, nnd
West Nicholson, Kelserville and Timk
hannork competed. The prizes were
nwarded to the grangers In 'the or
der above named. All had very fine
showings, and to the casual visitor It
would have been hard to determine
which was entitled to first prize.
