side, and J. W. Williams a bakery on
the other side. Uefore an alarm had
been sent in the lire had gained con
i sidelable headway, and for a time It
seemed as If '.he surrounding proper
ties could not be saved. Tlie firemen
responded promptly, but ns the water
pressure was very low. they worked ut
great disadvantage, but finally suc
ceeded in confining llio llames to the
fated building. The upper story was
used as a society hall and the follow
ing societies met there. Ancient Order
of Hibernians, Hoard of America: Sars
tleld Literary society, Catholic Mutual
Iteneflclal association, Ladies' Catholic
Beneficial association and Hibernian
Itlrtes. The -literary society and the
Kltle Cuurds are heavy losers. The car
pets and furniture were owned by the
former and the suits and Wiles of the
latter were considerably damaged. The
account books and charters were all
saved. All the household goods and
stock of both families were entirely
consumed. At about S.30 o'clock the fire
was under control und the brave, lire
men were released from duty. The so
cieties had no Insurance on their prop
erty. Mr. Williams carried a small in
surance, and It was reported that Titos.

'Soulre tiildea was a Scranton vis
itor yesterday.
At Monday's meeting of the borough
council President Jones appointed a
committee for the purpose of revising
the borough ordinances. This is some
thing that should hnve been done long
ago, and while It would also be well
to make provisions for having them
placed where they could be seen and
preserved. A few years after the crea
tion of the borough the ordinances then
in force were collected and published
in pamphlet form and one copy print
ed on a large card, was framed and
placed in the council room. At pres
ent this card Is the only thing In ex
istence to show that we are governed
by local laws, and even this is in such
poor condition that in n short time it
will be useless. The council should nlso
place a vault or case, in the council
room for the nreservution of borough
documents. 1'nder the present system
all the borough books and papers are
transferred from one secretary to an
other and In this way valuable papers
are lost, or get out of the possession
of the borough authorities. The spend
ing of a few dollars for the purpose out
lined above may In the end mean the
saving of many dollars.
