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.

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.

A. Z. Charles, proprietor of the Dalton
Hotel, is a very unassuming gentleman,
but nevertheless he has made lots ot
friends since his advent among us a few
months ago. Last evening, by invita
tion, about seventy-five guests assem
bled in his dining room to witness what
certainly was a lay out. 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. Among the guests were Victor
Koch," Charles Bchadt, Charles Robin

(AUTION
TO OUR
Washburn-Crosby Co. wish to assure their many rat
rons that they will this year hold to their usual custom
of milling STRICTLY OLD WHEAT until the new crop
i fully cured. New wheat is now upon the market, ana
owing to the excessively dry weather many millers ara
of the opinion that It is already cured, and in proper
condition for milling. Washburn-Crosby Co. will take
no risks, and will allow the new wheat fully three
months to mature before grinding.
This careful attention to every detail of milling haa
placed WshburnCrosby Co.'s flour far above other
brands.
