TRIED AND THI'E.
Comrade McComb. In the Furls
Ten years ago the Fugle espoused the
cause of Colonel Ezru H. Ripple and ad
vocuted his election as chief magistrate
or this city. He wus rhosen and gave a
grand administration, the fruit of which
Is apparent to this duy. His intelligence,
honesty of purpose, frankness and pro
bity, as Wfll.as his sympathy with the
deserving,, were some of the diameter
Istlcs which verllled the (predictions of
more than 3n0 representative citizens who
spoke for the masses and Importuned
him to serve the people when they knew
Unit his private affairs were absorbing his
time.
During: the decade of which -we speak
Colonel Ripple has been a very conspicu
ous figure umong his fellowmen, und his
robust manhood and uncompromising in
tegrity, as well as his quick and gener
ous response to every appeal for the ame
lioration of the condition of the poor and

unfortunate have won the hearts of men
In every sphere of life. He Is a cl;i
xen whose public spirit has greatly ad
vanced the cause of good government:
and a business man whoso perspicuity
and well-directed efforts have assisted in
doubling the population anil Increasing
the wealth of our city more than one hun
dred fold. He is today the standard
bearer of the citizens who desire the best
government that it Is possible to give the
city of Seranton. .
He is no experiment!
The Intelligent voters see no reason why
our public affairs should retrogade.
The only way to avance on any line Is'
to improve existing conditions!
For that reason Colonel Ezra II. Ripple
should have the votes of all thoughtful
und progressive citizens who are In sym
pathy with good government ami who
desire to see a progressive municipality.
DEATH OF CEOME MASON.
Was Suffocated by lolling laco Down
ward in a Pool of Water on i'ronklin
Avenue.
(JiHirge Mason, tvlin. doubtless, was
the must unique clltlt itcter In Scruiitnir.
was found rigid In death on the street
Hear Megurgel & Council's wholesale
store on Franklin avenue at .:w) yes
terday morning. The coroner's inquest
showed that he wun suffocated from
falling with his face downwurtl Into a
pool of slush.
C M. DeLong and Patrick Mnran
were golr.g along the avenue and they
saw the human form thrown on the
street. They tuned lilin over and
recognized at once who It was, but did
not suspect he wa dead until they
tried to life him to his feet.
Coroner Longstreet was notified and
he reached the place without delay: af
ter viewing the body the police were
notified, and at I o'clock I'ndertnker
Raub arrived and removed the renin lie;
to his establishment on Spruce street.
At 6 o'clock In the afternoon the coro
ner went to Itaub's, empaneled a jury
consisting of H. F. Hopewell, Dr. C. M.
Sltterly, II. H. James. Edward den
son. Jumes Fruble and II. 13. liilcer,
and theif performed un autopsy.
The lungs were congested, which
showed at once Ihut death was from
suffocation: there was no water in them
and It wus plain that death resulted
from his mouth and nose betntr sunk
In the slush, thereby depriving him of
the power of respiration. It is ren
Ronubly certain that he was under the
inlluence of liquor, and this would ac
count for his Inability to prevent hlm
Relf from smothering to death. Or, he
was subject to epileptic tits, and one of
these might have attacked htm, which
would be u theory explaining the cause
of death. The Jury found Ly Its ver
dict thut death was caused by suffoca
tion. Examination of the Vital Organs.
Coroner Lonirntreet made an exami
nation of the vital organs. The heart
wus In a strong, healthy condition; the
stomuch was similar; the kidneys were
In very good condition; but the liver,
while It. was live mid one-quarter
pounds in weight, which Is one and one
half times larger than a normal liver,
was In a healthy state, notwithstand
ing that It hud traces of becoming
"hob-nalled."
Mason, according to the opinion of
those who were well ucquulutcd with
him. was about GO years of age.: Hp
spent the last thirty-three years of his
life in Scrunton, excepting un occa
sional trip uway for n short period.
About the first employment he hud here
was burtendernt the old Luzerne house,
which is now Whyto's hotel, on Frank
lin avenue.
He had an aptitude for gambling and
followed thut art fur a livelihood the
greater uart of the time. His capacity
for money making was great and it is
common rumor thai he made and spent
sevci al small fortunes.
One of these stories, whether true or
not is not definitely known, Is that he
bet XS.000 on Jantus O. Blaine in the
presidential election of 1884 and. of
course, lost It. A man well acquainted
with him said that not many years ago
Mason had over M.000 In rash to his
credit In one of the banks of Scranton.
About the last enterprise h was en
gaged in was the proprietorship of a
poker room on Wyoming avenue. Prior
to that he had been In the oyster sa
loon business and similar - ventures.
Three years ago he gave up striving,
and entered upon a career of dissipa
tion which continued unremittingly un
til his death.
Saloons Were Ills Home.
The saloons were his home; he put In
his time at one or the other of them
and managed to get enough drink to
appear always under the Inlluence of
liquor. Hesotted as lie was, ne bore
himself even I" his most maudlin mo
ments with a genteel disdain, and he
scorned unvone who offered any com
miseration or sympathy.
No one seems to know just what time
he was last seen alive; the condition of
the body when lound showed he had
not lain there more than an hour. At
the holding of the Inquest his nostrils
were tilled with the slush of the street.
His outer clothlntr was shabby, btu he
had on a clean, warm suit of under
clothing. He came to Scranton from Tlrooklyn,
N. Y., and has a sister living there now.
The body Is yet at Raub'a. but if rela
tives do not claim it, a collection will
be made up In this rity to defray the
expenses of the funeral.

Street, Suddenly Close J Yesterday
Morning.
William Moore, of 133 West Market
street, died suddenly in the Christian
church on North Main avenue yester
day morning, durlnt? a meeting of the
church members, held after the tegu
lar Sabbath service. -lie was 72 years
old. of enfeebled health due t,o old age
and ireqtient ailments, and .the cause
of death was heart failure. '
Coroner Longstreet was notified, but
owing to the farts about Mr. Moore's
state of health, does not consider an In
quest necessary; he will go to the resi
dence today, view the body and prant
a burial permit.
The deceased was one of the pioneers
of this city; he lived all his life In this
rpeiim and followed the mercantile
business until a few years ago, when

that pursuit. Ills wire ncconipnnieu
him to church yesterday. After the
service a meeting was held at which
the management of the congregation
was under d scusslon. Mr. woore wus

Breaks the Record
HIS MOTTO
Tell the Truth and
Nothing but the
Truth!
Whore can you find In the nnnols of
medicine such a complete victory over
the old school of nauseating nnd drastic
remedies'.' A few years ugo Prof. Mttn
yon. u man of giant Intellect, benevo
lent purposes and determined character,
unfolded his new school of ntcillclnt?
through tlie medium of the press to the
public. Contldeiu In the honesty of his
mission, he usked the citizens of tin
lrnlteil States to test his remedies "ab
solutely free." and thereby made the
public a Jury to decide upon their
merits. What ha the verdict been?
Thousands of sufferers who never knew
what it was to be five from puin bless
the name of Muuyon, the modern bene
factor of the human race.
The unquestionable merit of Prof.
Munyou's remedies baa -stood the test
for the past live years, and now the
name of .Mnnyon Is a household word in
every family in this country, proving
without doubt the eillcacy of his cures
and the honest victory he has won
against overwhelming odds. To the
skeptical we would say: If you art?
cureless regarding your own health,
have mercy on the little ones who
know no better, and do not commit the
sin of neglect by continuing to give
I remedies that will doubtless harm them
j In after life, when you have within your
reuch, a, a. nominal price, cures that
will effect the desired result without in
jury to the system.

SOWING I MF. WIND.
Strong Drama Produce J by n Splendid
rnmpnny nt the AcndoinT of .Musis.
If Sidney Cirundy never wrote any
thing: for the stafre save ' Sowing the
Wind" that would be sutncleut to win
for him a hljrh place among content-'
porary dramatists. The dialogue is
brlKht and refreshliifily nutural ami
the characters are drawn with great
faithfulness. Nor Is Mr. Grundy a novice
In the rare nit of producing striking
stase pictures and of seasoning his
drama with the appropriate number of
climaxes. All of this was demonstrated
Saturduy night at the Academy of
Music, where "lowing the Wind" had
Its first Scranton production.
That Sir. flrumly used the best nf
Judgment when he selected the thom?
on which the drama is built is open to
serious' doubt but his trentment of it
was skillful and delicate. He followed
the example of tnuny playwrlters uml
for the suke of causing comment und
attracting attention to his hundlwork,
gave the stage something It would In?
better off without. As If regretting the
poisonous utiiiosplieie lu which his
drama llnds the cause for Its existence
he tries to make I', enforce it powerful
moral lesson but It Is doubtful If his
morullx.ing can neutralize the evil ef
fects of the subject matter of his dis
course. If treated by some loss gifted person
than Air. Grundy, "Sowing the Wind"
would be brutal nnd prove Its own de
stroyer and it is difllcult therefore to
say whether his genius should he com
mended or condemned.
A more thnn ordinarily well balanced
company produced the drama Saturday
night before the large audience. Miss
Mary Hampton, a young woman who
left a convent school to go on the
stage, was the central figure In the
character of Knsamond. It Is a most
exacting role but Miss Hampton was
equal to Its requirements. J. H. Gil
mour was Mr. Brttbozon and more nat
ural and artistic work has seldom been
seen In this city. The scene in the third
act between Rosamond and Mr. Bio
bnzon whtre the doctrine of sex against
sex Is enunciated Is me of the strongest
I- in the drama and wu magnificently
iom it was followed l.v un 4nti-tlve
climax wl.cu Sir. Urubnac.ii discovers
iun i.'iuuioiiii is ins (uiuxiiier iy tne

Mr.-.falliiinur and Miss liainptntt proved
themselves real artists.
Thomas Whiffen .gave a delightful
bit of character nctim; nnd Ouy stand

who acquitted themselves with great
