elected in his stead. W. A. Price was
elected vice-president, the 'office made
vacant by Mr. Moser's promotion, and
John Blume was given the treasurer
ship. A debate on the subject "Re
solved, "That the human race Is de
generating": was very interesting and
brought out much discussion. The fea
ture of the debate was the able efforts
of Rev. Mr. Griffiths, of the Sumner
Avenue Presbyterian church, and Hugh
Howell. Mr. Howell also read an origi
nal poem on "One Hundred Years to
Come." It was much enjoyed. The

TWO BILLS NOT PAID.
Auditing Committee Virtually Starts a
Con pi o of Law Suits.
The Barber Asphalt company's bill
of $'JS3.10 for repairing Franklin ave
nue, near the Spruce street Intersec
tion, came up before the auditing com
mittee last night with an opinion from
the city solicitor that the city is not
liable for the claim, but that the Trac
tion company by Its unauthorized act
In atempting to double track Franklin
avenue, caused the damage and can be
held to account for It. The committee
decided to withhold payment and in
struct the city solicitor to collect the
money from the Traction company.
Another claim which the, .committee
rejected was presented by George A.
Millet, of Vine street, for $10 damage to
his bicycle, caused by a collision with
a bank of dirt on Washington ave
nue, near Phelps street. In August
last. Mr. Millet claimed that the acci
dent was due to the city's negligence
in not having a lantern at that point
to warn vehicles of the presence of the
bank. . Street Commissioner Kinsley,
to whom the matter had been previous
ly referred, reported that he had made
an investigation and had found out
that Mr. Millet, at the time of the ac
cident, was racing against a team, with
his head down, and not using due care
to avoid obstruction.
The committee felt that If Mr. Millet
has a good case he can collect the
claim through the courts, and so Ig
nored the bill.

LOOKING UP THE LAW.
Squire Gllday Trying to Find Out the Na
ture of Constable Dougher's Offense.
Thomas Gllday, a Justice ot the peace
of Arohbald borough, was- In the city
yesterday seeking legal advice on a
knotty; question that was brought to
his attention Saturday. He visited the
district atorney's office and laid the de
tails of the case before Mr. Jones as
slstants.
Mr. Gllday stated that on Saturday
one Cornelius Connors, of Archbald,
called on him and asked for a warrant
for the arrest of-Constable William
Dougher, of that borough. Connors said
that he was acquainted with the facts
In the case of Thomas Grady, who is
charged with assault and battery by
Mrs. Bridget Munley, and that Dougher
knowing tnis caned on him and read
what purported to be a subpoena com
manding him to appear before the
grand jury and give testimony. Con
nors claims that he afterward ascer
tained that Dougher was not the pos
sessor of a subpoena at the' time he
called on him and he wants to punish
the officer for what he believes was an
Illegal act.
Squire Gllday agreed with Mr. Con
nors that the constable's conduct was
highly reprehensible and that he should
be punished. He carefully examined
his Purdon's Digest and Blnn's Justice
to see what the offense was scheduled
under, but af terexamlninaall the law on
the subject at his command the 'squire
was unable to decide what charge he
should specify In the warrant. He was
convinced that It was either misde
meanor In office, false pretense, malfea
sance In office or perjury, but just
which of these terms it would be best
to class the constable's transgression
under he was unable to decide and re
solved to postpone action on the war
rant until he sought legal advice In this
city.
Last evening the 'squire returned to
his home determined to Issue a warrant
for the arrest of Constable Dougher
on a charge or misdemeanor in office.
A Professional - Nurse Afflicted with
Brlght's Disease of the kidneys
Finds Cure. V
(From the Buffalo News.)
Mrs. A. E. Taylor' has resided In Buf
falo for over forty years, her address Is
250 Herkimer avenue; as a professional
nurse sne has nursed back to neaitn
many a sufferer..- Disease In all Its
varied forms have become aa familiar
to her as to the regular practitioner.
Her-occupation Is one that 'taxes the
strongest constitution, but the fatigue
of Jong watching and nursing at last
brought her to a bed of sickness. Mrs.
Taylor speaks of her complaint and
cure as follows: "After being con
fined to my bed for some time my dis
ease assumed such a serious aspect
that a doctor was called In. He pro
nounced my ailment Brlght's disease of
the kidneys In the third degree and a
very bad case. My limbs swelled up so
that I could not walk across the floor,
or, Indeed, help myself In any way. My
face bloated up and my eyes swelled so
that the sight was badly impaired.
This condition continued for nearly
two months without any marked
Imnrovement from the doctor' treat
ment. I have taken quarts of buchu
and lunlner. I tried battery treatment
but all without any lasting benefit until
I felt like finally giving up in despair.
Hearing of Doan's Kidney Pills I gave
them a trial, and after taking three
boxes I was able to get up without as
sistance and walk, something I had not
done in months. -1 continued to stead
ly Improve with their use. The swell
ing in my lea left the color returned to
my face, changing from a chalky color
to a heaitny oioom. 4 now consiaer my
self entirely cured and I shall never
rest praising the. little pill that saved
me.
"Doan's Kidney Pills art certainly a
suramins- discovery tor. Kidney ail
ments. I shall be glad to tell anyone of
the wonderful cure they perfomed for
me." ' -

the Sheriff's Sale Proceeds.

:-fr '';. ,.
Creditors Clslm to Be "Frozen Out" and
Wsat the Judgment Uolders to Make'
a Dtvtslon-Charf.es of 'Fraud
and False Proteases.1
M. H. McDermott yesterday signed a
contract to manage -the Scranton Base
Ball club during lsM. That's one thing
new In local base ball, but there's some
thing else new. that will create more
talk than the signing of a new manager.
Ben Cusick, a North End saloonkeeper,
and a stockholder In the defunct asso
ciation, has openly made the charge of
fraud and false pretenses in connection
with the recent sheriff's sale and has
given his case In charge of Attorneys
O'Brien & Kelly. One of the Judgment
creditors, Edward Coleman, and possi
bly P. P. Jordan, like Coleman, an ex
director, have taken fides with Cuslct;
W. A. St. John, another stockholder,
also can be classed with them and there
are several outside creditors urging tne
saloonkeeper to push his case.
The alanine of McDermott as man
ager can be briefly told: He met Harry
P. Simpson, the new owner of the fran
chise, in the latter's office at o'clock
yefterday mornip. Tho details of what
transpired are not known, but In thirty
minutes McDermott had signed a
Scranton contract and went to the St.
Charles hotel, where he paid his bill
and Immediately took the 9.50 Lacka
wanna train for New York. He will
return here for a few days during De
cember and after an explicit under
standing of his employer's wishes will
return to Fall River, which will be his
headquarters during the winter. In
the spring he will come here to reside,
and It is expected that in the moan
while he will have secured a batch of
players from among whom the team
will be chosen.
Out Ono Hundred and Fifty Dollars.
Saloonkeeper Custck's complaint Is
that he has been mulcted out of $150,
which represents two sums advanced
by him during the early season to help
tide the waning fortunes of the old as
sociation over a spell of financial dis
tress. He claims there was no proper
formal action taken in a regular direc
tors' meeting preliminary to the pro
ceedings and Judgments of seven direc
tors which caused the sheriff's sale. He
says It is a case of "freezing mm out,"
along with W. A. St. John, who is
minus 1109 paid for lumber and carpen
ter work; Reese & Long, who performed
the base ball bill posting; Fred. Schoen,
who has a bill for printing, and a num
ber of creditors of the small-fry variety.
But there is another and a Berious
phase to the controversy. Yesterday
one of the "frozen out" creditors told
a Tribune reporter that for over a year
there has been no accounting of
moneys received for the rental of the
park, or for other financial transac
tions not Immediately connected with
the club, and its games during the
season. The Tribune's Informant Inti
mated there might be trouble on this
acoount.
It Is not known what steps will be
taken by O'Brien & Kelly in Stock
holder Cuslck's Interest. Mr.- Simpson,
the new owner, Is in no wise involved,
excepting, the. possibility of losing the
franchise and having : his purchase
money returned In case the sheriff's
sale Is found to be Irregular. He now
has a bill of sale signed by the sheriff
and wilt get a deed on Thursday, the
stated day for acknowledging sher
iff's deeds. .
What Director Coleman Says. ,
Director Coleman said to a Tribune
reporter Inst night, "When the decision
was reached among ub seven directors
to secure Judgments, there was no un
derstanding or agreement to share the
proceeds of the sale with the outside
creditors. Nevertheless, I do not think
It Just, in view of what later trans
pired, to keep them from sharing with
us. Something should be done. I. was
at the sale and know that President
Betts was offered $3,000 for the property
by Morris Davidow and Alex Dunn,
but the offer was refused and every
thing was allowed to go for $2,180, at
which price President Betts sold to Mr.
Simpson."
Several days ago Mr. Betts explained
his refusal to sell for $3,000 by the as
sertion that Mr. Davidow -and Mr.
Dunn would have bid the property up
to near that figure and then with
draw from the' bidding, thus forcing
the fees of the sheriff nearly a hundred
dollars higher. .

5ITALLER THAN USUAL
Hlllputlan, lu fact,
are Doctor Pierce's
Pleasant Pellets.
Dr. R. V. Pierce,
Chief Consulting
Physician to the In
valids' Hotel and
Surgical Institute,
of Buffalo, N. Y.,
was the first to in
troduce a Little Pill
'to the American
feople. For all
xative and ca
thartic purposes
these snear-coated
"Pellets" are superior in a great many
ways to all mineral waters, sedlitz powders,
salts, castor oil, fruit syrups, laxative teas,
and other purgative compounds. Made of
concentrated vegetable ingredients, they
act in a mild, natural way. Their second
ary effect is to keep the liver active and the
bowels regular, not to further constipate,
as is the case with other pills. They don't
interfere in the least with the diet, habits
or occupation, and produce no paiu, grip,
iug or shock to the system.
Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets cure bil
iousness, sick and bilious headache, diz
ziness, costivencss, or constipation, sour
stomach, loss of appetite, coated tongue,
indigestion, or dyspepsia, windy belch
ings, "heart-burn," pain and distress after
eating, and kindred derangements of the
liver, stomach and bowels. These "Pel
lets" are easily dissolved in the stomach
and absorbed into the blood, stimulating a
flow of bile from the liver, and arousing to
activity all the glandular secretions. Thus
they act iit nature's own way. In proof
of their superior excellence, it can be truth
fully said, that they are always adopted
as a household remedy after the first trial.
Put up in glass vials, therefore always fresh
and reliable.
One little " Pellet " is a laxative, two are
mildly cathartic. As a "dinner pill," to
Sromote digestion, take one each day after
inner. To relieve distress from over
eating, they are unequalcd.
They are tiny,-sugar-coated granules;
any child will readily take them. Once
used, always in favor.
Accept no substitute that may he recom
mended to be "just as good." It may6
better for the dealer, because of paying
him a better profit, but he is not the one
who needs help. -
