O'NEILL WILLIE CHAIRMAN
Carboodale to Be Givet Plrst I'lace
on the Democratic Committee.
IT WILL bE MADE IT TODAY
rahey. Kclley and Dannlng Will Meet This
Afternoon to Organis. the County
Commltto. Gsffrtey for Seers;
tury and Sehsdt for Treasurer.
(Attorney James J. O'Neill, of Carbon
dale, will ibe chairman of the Dem
ocratic county committee, John J. Gaff
tiey, of the West Side, will be secre
tary, and Ohurlea Schadt, of the South
Side, treosurer.
Thla was the understanding reached
last tilght after three days' delibera
tion and consultation. This Is not of
ficial, 'but merely a forecast, which
can 'be relied upon, however, as it
comes from a highly authorattve
source.
The two candidate. Dr. J. S. Keltey
and A. B. Dunning, will meet this after
noon with ex-Sheriff Fahey, chairman
of the convention, to organise the coun
ty committee. OWoll, Gaffney and
Sdhadt will undoubtedly be chosen for
the three offices in the committee; in
fact, they have already been chosen,
and today's meeting will be no more
than a formal iprooeeillng for the of
ficial contlrmatlon of the three officials
already agreed upon.
It was expected ithot ithe committee
would be selected test night, but owing
to the Inability of Coroner Kelley to at
tend, because of the 'Roesler Inquest,
postponement was had until today.
'Mr. O'iNell was Democratic chairman
In the county campaign several years
ago.
BACK FROM READING.
Nay Aug llos. Company and Lawrence
Band Return to th. City.
Looking travel-stained and fatigued,
but happy, the Nay Aug Hose com
pany, accompanied by the complete
Lawrence band, reached here soon after
11 o'clock last night from Reading,
where they participated in the state
firemen's convention and Thursday's
parade, which was one of the largest of
Its kind ever held within tne uoraers oi
the state.
The members reported a good time.
In speaking of Scranton's defeat as the
city for the 1896 convention. It was said
that the whole proceeding was crooked
from beginning to end. There was a to
tal of 393 votes cast and Johnstown re
ceived 218 and Scranton 63. making a
total of only 381. It was Impossible to
obtain any satisfactory answer from
the judge or tellers as to the disposi
tion of the other 112 votes. Wllkes
Barre played the dog In the manger and
opposed Scranton.
Even, though, Scranton lost the con
vention, the reception tendered May
Augs on their return was as great as If
the laurels had been won. At Allen
town the boys paraded the principal
streets, having had two hours between
trains In that city.

MUST COMPLY WITH THE RULES
That Was ths Dselslon th. Board Arrived

. Mlvcd from th. Carbondale District-Going
to th. Convention.
Mrs. W. B. Duggan came In for a
hare of attention at the meeting of the
poor board yesterday afternoon. She
works in conjunction with the child
saving committee of the Board of As
sociated Charities, and a number of
young ones taken from worthless and
dissolute parents have 'been placed In
the Home for the Friendless by her.
Invariably this lias 'been done without
first obtaining the consent of poor di
rector of the district or securing a poor
board order.
Yesterday on official of the Home for
the Friendless, with a bill for the board
of some' of these children, appeared be
fore the poor directors and when it
was 'learned that no order had accom
panied the children the members of the
board expressed ithemeelves as opposed
to the present practice. They are will
ing to assist In the work of child-saving
by paying for the keeping of the little
ones at a suitable Institution, but InsU't
that the work shall 'be done in ayifn
lar way. In accordance with the rules
of the board. The ibllls presented weiu
paiid, but the manager of the home
were directed to hereafter tnslut on an
ordVr accompanying each child, and on
motion of Mrs. Frances H. &wnn it was
ordered that hereafter Mrs. Dutfgan se
cure an order before taking a child to
any Institution as a charge on the
Scranton oor district. '
To .Move Against Delinquents.
Superintendent Beomer, In his report,
told the directors .there was $-.740 due
the district by committees, guardians
and parents of Insane patients at the
homo, a portion of which he thought
waa collectable. He advised that some
thing be done 1n the matter at once, as
the accounts are 'being carried on the
'books at the Ihome and they are anx
ious to dispose of them In some way
that they may know who the Indigent
insane are. This Is an Important mat
ter now that the state pays a portion
of the expense of keeping hat class of
Insane patients. The finance commlt
were directed to take nteps to secure
settlements from the delinquents.
Mrs. Brlilffe Gurryi an old lady 70
years of age, who resides at 2006 Lu
erne street, came (before the board and
asked for outdoor relief. J-the Uvea
alone, and the members of the board
decided that It would be best tO' send
her to the .Hillside Home. When she
was informed of this fact she stoutly
refused to go. "Into that place I'll
never put my head," she told President
LanitFtafT, and no amount of talk could
change her determination.
three Children Indentured.
Harry Scutt'end 'Sadie and James
Winkler were Indentured to the Homo
for the Friendless by the board. Bids
were received for the erection of a
time detector at the Hillside Home from
the Scranton Supply and 'Machinery
company and the American Watch
man's Time Detector company. The
bid of the latter, $180, was the lowest
and 'the board accepted it.
The report of Treasurer D. M. Jons
showed that he reclved $12,903,87 from
ex-Treaaurer T. 'H. Jones; $26,100 from
Collector Arja Williams; from F. L.
Wormser, $6.48; George W. Beemer,
superintendent, $1,212.59; total, $40,212.
94. Orders were paid and cancelled
amounting to $38,318.26, leaving a bal
ance tin his hands of $1,924.68. Orders
are held by the Merchants and (Mechan
ics' bank for $16,639.18.
iDr. W. D. Donne, one of the outdoor
physicians, reported 101 visits during
the month of September, gave sixty
seven prescriptions. He attended at
two births, and there were two deaths
among the patients he attended. Dr.
W. A. Paine made elghty-slx visits to
charges of the 'board, and made three
insane examinations. .Dr. J. K. Murphy
made twenty-five visits and examined
one insane patient.
The report of Benjamin F. Evans,
the resident physician at the home
showed that during .September he at
tended seventy-four sane and fifty
three insane patients. The number
of patients In asylum on Sept. 1 was
137; (luring the month six persons were
received and two were discharged,
leaving the total number on Oct. 1
In the asylum, 141.
Superintendent George W. Beemer's
report showed that nine persons were
admitted to the home In September,
two died, one was born and eleven dis
charged. The number now in the alms
house its 160, thirty-five of whom are
females and 125 males.
Will Heoalve Non-Rcsldents.
Secretary J,ynett made a statement
to the board to the efTect that the secre
tary of the Carbondale poor board had
called upon him with a view to ascer
taining if the Scranton poor district
would ibe willing to accept Insane per
son from Carbondale at .Its asylum.
Danville is overcrowded and none can
be received at that place, therefore they
ar now compelled to take thorn to
Wernersvllle asylum, which entails
much expense. 'Mr. Gibbons thought It
would be a graceful act to -assist the
Carb'.ndale board and receive Its pa
tients. He believes that It Is only a
question of time until ours will be a
state asylum.
Superintendent .Beemer, In response
to the questions of memibers, said there
was room for additional patients at
the Hillside asylum. It was decided to
receive the Carbondale patients pro
vided the board of that city gave a
bond for their maintenance and also
agrees to remove them if at any time
the asylum became so crowded as to
make such a step necessary.
Coming state Convention.
Secretary Lynett read a cordial lnyl
tatlon to the members and officers of
the board to attend the twenty-first
annual meeting of the association of
the poor and charities of Pennsylvania
In Philadelphia on Oct. 15, 16 and 17.
It was decided that members and offi
cers of the local board ehould attend
the convention. Mr. Gibbons wanted
to have Rev. Rogers Israel, who takes
a deep Interest in the local charities, go
to the convention as the guest of the
board, but Attorney 'Scragg decided
they had no legal right to pay the ex
penses of any one save officers and
members of the board.
Attorney John F. Scragg will reply to
the address of welcome at the conven
tion In behalf of the visitors, and Mrs.
Frances B. Bwan will read a paper on
"What Is Charity?"

VERY PLEASANT MAN.
feed to Tall His Wif. About His Amours
Along th. Road.
Judge Arch bald heard the testimony
In chambers yesterday In the divorce
case of Margaret J. Crofut against her
husband, Ulysses E. Crofut. Attorneys
John F. gcragg and K. Werrlllehl rep
resented the llbellant, and Court Bteno
kraph W. D. Coston took the notes of
the proceedings.
The Crofuts were married on Wash
ington's Birthday, 1887, In Blnghamton,
and they took up their residence on
Rt-omlry avenue. West Side, 1n thla
city. Two children were born to them.
They are in the mother's keeping at
present.- Crofut is a brukeman on a
pussenger train on the Delaware, Lack
awanna and Western railroad.
The llbellant was the first one sworn.
She stated that the voyage was smooth
from their marriage until three years
ago. Her husband used to come home
and by way of diversion tell her about
his amours out along the rood; when
she took exception to it he would choke
her against the wall. His abuse con
tinued until file had to leave his home.
.Mrs. A. J. Atkinson, her sister, swore
that she often heard quarrels between
lilie llbellant and respondent. Mrs.
Jacob Itetbert swore to the same effect.
Miss Heesle Doyle, who used to work
for the couple, saw the respondent
throw a stove lifter at his wife, and
?he often heard him tell her about the
Kocd time he used to have with other
women. Crofut was of a jealous, dis
position, but, according to the testi
mony, tie had no reason to be.

THE TEMPERANCE CAUSE.
Logically Discussed by A. V. Bower in
Green kidgo last Night.
In the Evangelical church on Canouse
avenue last nlghjt on audience which
filled the small auditorium to the doors
witnessed the entertainment under the
auspices of the Green Uldffe Women's
Christian Temperance union.
A prominent feature of the pro
gramme of recitation and song was a
brief 'but logical temperance address
by Aaron V. Bower. He contended
that the liquor drinker cannot be cor
rected throush arguments of religion,
morality or law, hut that work along
economic lines will accomplish the end
In view. Drinkers, he said, will feel in
the heart any argument chawing that
their habit affects -unfavorably their
chancta of financial succeps or mercan
tile advancement, and work along this
line was what Mr. Bower advocated.
Among the many meritorious enter
tainment numbers were a solo by M.iss
Edth Jones, a recitation by Master
Bertie Langhaim, a recitation by Pro
fessor Arthur Darsey and a duet by
Miss Suydam and Mitts Jones.
The Scranton llnsiness College
Messrs, Buck & Whltmore are now be
ginning to rfap some reward for the
many years of hard, conscientious and
honest work they have clone In their
chosen line in this city. No school ever
achieved greater success In the same lime
than, has theirs. True merit ulwnvs wins.
On Monday afternoon twelve new tables
were placed in the business department;
on. Thursday eight more. During the
week another lot was ordered to be manu
factured soon as possible. When, these
are placed there will be room for no more.
Today a purtltlon between -two lare
olass roams Is being removed, thus throw
ing the two rooms into one. This was
mudo 'necessary because of the size of
the letter-writing, grammar and arith
metic clashes in the night school.
Two more studentB secured positions

Bleep is one of the things that cannot

The punishment for sleeplessness Is

stand on their feet all day nng, have
little difficulty .In convincing their
friends of the remarkable power of
Paine's celery compound to restore
their energy, Ternew their vigor, and
make them strong and well.
.Here Is a letter from Mr. Mmx Burg
helm the well known president and
manager of the Cincinnati Frplo Presse
Company. Mr. Burgheim writes:
"The following statement may be of
Interest. I have been sufferlnir from
sleeplessness, Insomnia, for many years,
ami although I have tried almost every
thing to got cured, consulted the best
physicians, and even going several
times to 'Europe, everything was in
vain.
"I d"d not have a night's rest for al
most six years, that Is to ray, I could
not sleep for two 'hours In succession In
a single night: you can easily imagine
what the effect on me had boon.
"After spending a fortune in trying
for relief I had given up almost all
hoipe, and iwhr-n I first read about
Paine's celery compound I did not have
much faith In anything. But sifter hav
ing used so ninny remedies and con
sulted so many physicians tn this coun
try and Abroad I felt like giving the
compound a trial. The resuM waa truly
wonderful.
"The very flrrt night about six
months ago that I tried Paine's celery
compound you can Imagine my Joy
When I found that I had slept six hours
In succession, a thins that I had not
been blessed with for en many years.
I continued the use for over three
months with the same happy result,
and Although I was fearful lest the
malady would come back on me. I can
now say that although I have not taken
the compound for miontlis I do sleep
every night peacefully and without In
terruption. "You can easily imagine what this
means for a man who works fourteen
hours every day In the year and has
charge of two large newspapers. 4 con
sider my case a most remarkable one
nnd I should be Rind if this statement
should ibe the means of helping others
who havo suffered like I in the same
untold agonies, and for this reason I
give you full permission to make use of
this statement in any way you choose,"
