ARCHBALD
This community was startled on Sat
urday morning by the announcement
of the sudden death of Thomas J. Healy,
one of our best known business men,
which occurred ut midnight on Friday.
Mr. Healy was at his store all day and
appealed In Ills usual good health. At
o'clock Friday night he was suddenly
stricken with a fainting spell, ami at a
few minutes before midnight he died.
His death was due to heart failure. The
deceased was a son of the late Thomas
Healy. one of the pioneer merchants of
the Lackawanna valley. He was born
in this borough and lived here iluring
his entire lifetime. Being young, soci
able and generous he won many friends,
to whom his death will come in the
nutute of u personal bereavement. He
was recognized as one of our leading
and most energetic business men and
readily engaged In every enterprise
having for Its object the prosperity of
our borough. He was a member of
Archbald Hose company. Archbuld con
clave, Improved Order of Ileptasophs,
and Archbald branch of the Catholic
Mutual benefit association. Mr. Healy
was a brother of Frank Henly. of this
borough, and Mrs. M. M. Kearney, of
Berkely, Va. He Is survived by his
wife and fi-e small children. His fu
neral will take place on Tuesday morn
ing. A high mass of requiem will bo

nominated for school director from the
First ward and Philip Behle for coun
cilman. John Otto was nominated for

burg. sr.. for Inspector. There may be
another Republican caucus held In that
ward, as there are some wjin think the
call was not properly Issued.
The Second Ward Democratic caucus
was held on Friday night in Newcomb's
hall. John J. Barrett wan chairman;
A. J. Duffy, secretary, and J. F. Phil
bln, William Cummings and Jonn

mond Coal company and occupied by
John Onavage, was burned at 11 o'clock
on Thursday morning, and but. for the
timely arrival of Patrick Kearney. D.
P. O'Rourke and Thomas Spitten, it
might have been attended by loss of
life. The wife of the occupant of the
building was sick abed, and it was her
agonizing cries that attracted the at
tention of the men. It was with great
difficulty that herself and her three tiit.
dren were removed from the building.
The building and Its contents were de
stroyed. The second meeting of the patrons of
the water company was held on Thurs
day evening to receive the report of tne
committee appointed at the first meet
ing. The decision of the directors of
the water company to reduce the rate to
IS was made known and as had been an
ticipated, the result was not satisfac
tory. There was considerable discus
sion as to ways and means by which
the company could be brought to terms,
but no definite line of action was de
cided upon. A committee was appoint
ed to ask the assistance of the borough
council in procuring lower rates. As
the matter stands now, there Is no Im
mediate prospect of a reduction to the
$6 rate, as the company seems deter
mined not to go below K. There were
some at the meeting on Thursday even
ing who favored bonding the borough
for the erection of a plant, but this plan
did not meet with favor..
The Third ward Democrats held a

POOR POLICY
We have always considered It, without regard to ethics, poor
business policy to depart from the lines ot strictest truth in the
statements contained in our advertisements. There are concerns
who think it good business to wildly exaggerate in their ads, as
suming that the majority of the people like to be humbugged. We
tnink, however, like the woman who killed the goose tbat laid tne
golden egg.
We Are in Business for " Keeps."
Very often we have rare bargains for our customers. Then is the ttm
when we want what we say to be implicitly believed, and we never intend t
advertise a single article or group of articles or a special sale of any kind
without a thorough foundation, in fact, when you see it in an "Economy"
ad it's so.
