Much complaint is heard from those who travel on the street railways doing business here concerning the wretched accommodations at the terminus of the lines. The booth located there Is seldom opened after 8 o'clock in the evening, and those who desire to travel on either line arc often obliged to wait In the cold and dark at the most lonesome and cheerless point in the borough. The gentleman who occupies the booth Is not obliged to stay there at' any time, but It is possible that he may be in duced to stay If the companies pay him. The companies cannot expect people to patronize them when they will rrmke no effort ' to accommodate the people. There Is no sense and little money In running things according to the present system. - Nine times out of ten the person wfio now travels on the street railways after dark Is obliged to wait from ten to twenty minutes for a car, and In ihe meantime run the risk of being assaulted or robbed by the gentry that occasionally visit that neighborhood. There are no houses within 100 yards of the termini, and it Is easily possible for such things to be done. . It Is the duty of the companies to furnUh better accommodations to their patrons and It Is surprising if tt has not occurred to them that they are losing money by their failure to do so, . The list of candidates for the various Offices to be filled at the February elec tion Is still Increasing, and there now seems to be some danger that the mania for office will spread to everyone In town. . Since the last announcements we have the following: For school di rector, First word, Max Klapfer and Michael Baltes and Captain C. C. Bat tenberg are named; for council, Philip Behle Is mentioned, and there may be a gentleman from the Ridge. From the Second ward comes the names of Michael Dean and William Mahon as candidates for council, and Thomas W. Loftus and M. F. Bwlft for auditor. It : Is also announced that Michael Toolln will be a candidate for re-election to the school board and T. J. Klelty, James McHale and John J. Brogan are said to be on the list. Thomas Slddon may again seek election to the coun cil. This does not exhaust the list for there will surely be others before the time for the caucuses arrives. , Thers was not A quorum of the council present on Tuenday evening, so no meeting was held. , ,; r , If the Bab I Cutting Teeth.

DALTO.M, The Young People's Rally held In the Baptist church was a very successful gathering both In point of numbers In attendance and the Interest awakened. The afternoon session was presided over by Luther Keller, of Scranton, the presi dent of the Baptist Young People's Union of the Ablngton Baptist associa tion. The subjects were all good and were very ably presented by the dif ferent speakers. The whole session was taken up with a discussion of the dif ferent courses of Bible study as set forth in the Christian Culture Course, the Conquest Missionary Course and the Sacred Literature Course, all of which are arranged so as to furnish a systematic course of Bible reading which would enable every Bible scholar to become "Thoroughly Finished," which was the subject of the evening address by Rev. Frank Cooper, of Bing hamton, N. Y. This address was one of the best ever heard here and was well deserving of the large audience who gave the speaker their undivided at tention throughout. Not ihe least pleas ing part of the meeting were the solos given by Mrs. Sowell, the wife of tne pastor of the church, and by Prof. Man chester, of Factoryvillc, who also brought with him an orchestra of six pieces to assist In the music. The song service, with orches'tra accompaniment, was very inspiring. The young peo ple of the church served supper to their guests in the church parlor between tne sessions. Dr. J. C.

It had been rumored about that Mr. Charles, In ad dition to his other good qualities, was also a chef of the highest order. There cei talnly was no doubt of this when the eyes of his assembled guests feasted on the dainty viands prepared by the host for their entertainment, tut thuy were not satisfied to gaze very long at the display, for as soon as all were seated they immediately "set to" and began to devour what was so temptingly of fered them. To undertake to give the menu In full would take too much space, but It was certainly very much enjoyed by all.
