Hungarians had a great big fight last evening on West Lackawanna avenue In a saloon kept by Joseph Polusky. The trouble arose over love. In the old country a man, Tuske by name, mar lied a black-eyed damsel of his own na tionality. Soon after marriage the woman deserted and came to this coun try. Yuske resolved upon dire revenge. He traced the woman to this city where she resides or exists with a fellow countryman. The Hungarian "Ostler Joe" was quite mad when he saw the couple last night In the saloon. He wanted to tight; hi? got It and the heavy end at that. The police arrived nnd the right stopped. Yuske went away but soon returned and in his hnnd a large rock menaced the safety of the police. He was locked up. A hearing will be ,glven this morning. Drunkenness, of course, played Its shnre in the broil. COMING ENTERTAINMENTS. The entertainment and social this evening at.

LIVES SAVED BY JOKES. How Two Kentucky Duelists Adjusted Their Little Difficult. Oeorge Davis and Bill Jacobs were Rmall farmers In Bourbon county, Ken tucky. They were not of "blue blood," but were dangerous lighters, says the Chicago Times. They had been friends, but "fell out" at last, and It was sup posed they would "shoot on sight" next time they met. Their meeting was In the streets of Paris, the county seat. Davis drew a hia: navy revolver and Jacobs a little oeket derringer. When Davis saw the other man's weapon he muttered: "Oh, pshaw!" arid returned his revolver to his belt and picked up a brickbat. Jacobs made no attempt to slioot, and the fight was deferred to a more auspicious occasion. This reminds me ot an Incident that happened In Denver during the wild and woolly days. A young man from away down east has gone to Denver armed with an old I'ushloned Allen revolver "pepper box" that weapon was called In those days. In a gambling house one night he be came Involved with a "bad man" In a quarrel and drew forth his pepper-box. The bad man, who was really a tough citizen from the mountains, and who had not he remotest Idea of fear, and who was always armed with a pair of big navies, threw up his hands In well feigned dismay and said: "Heavens, man! You ain't a-goln' to throw that at me, are you?" For the sake of his joke he spared that young man's life, and to that one of the wealthiest and most respected citi zens of Denver now owes the fact that he Is doing business) In -that western metropolis-. " He is a monument of that border man's sense of humor. Halters sr.d Furtars. SAMTERS SOUTH SIDE NEWS.

H. T. Harder. Scranton, Pa., April 2, ISM. THE OCCUPATION OP THE SOLDAX. Editor of The Tribune. Sir: Knglund in Kgygit, and her ad vance In that country, occasion many disquieting rumors which threaten the peace of Europe. The world must move, and as an onlooker we believe the present movement must prove an effeotive agent In the world's advancement. However combatable the cuse may be to those jeal ous of England, It cannot be denied that she asserts her Influence In the direction of civilization and to the amelioration ot those unfortunate ones who are In Ignor ance of the blessings shared by the peo ple of the western hemisphere. Knglund takes a bold stand, and a position of which she Is thoroughly conversant, de spite the conflicting reports to the con trary. Diplomacy has been consulted! Jealousy Is rampant unions the rival pow ers of Europe. England's operations In the Nile coun try are unquestionably to put down the destructive forces operating against civi lization, forces that are as the deadly night shade to progress, and diametrical ly opposed to the Inevitable drift of events peculiar to this day and century. Setting aside the Inuendos and narrow In terpretations which are too often Im pugned to England by the rival powers of Europe, we ask In Its place, a studious and an Impartial Investigation. We be lieve the duy approaches, and that, a day long sought after by all civilization In concert, when there will be more light In dark places. This nation has of late been moved to sympathy from center to cir cumference In be half of Armenia. Such a call will he ever present until England or fame other favored nation tulces the initiative In the cause of civilization nnd Its companion, Christianity. The call is an imperative one, and of Its truth the powers of Europe are slowly, but surely giving unanimity of thought and consent. Though complicated anil fraught with many dangers, the English advance In Egypt means a conquest for the develop ment of the eastern countries to Chris tianity, a work forcing Itself to the front by harmonious evolution. It Is reserved for England by virtue of her Intelligence nnd Christianity to Illumine that oasis of darkness, and her advance, expansion and supremacy must be attended with far-reaching effect to the exclusion of neither creed nor color. Humanity of the three continents must soonor or later feel the beneficent effects. Though late the attempt. It Is not to England's discredit, hut to those Inimical to her expansion, ami their fear of the fierce light of Christian ity that follow In the train of her ad vance. The state of affairs in the east Is visibly presented In the presence of America's Red Cross society with Its noble representation, Miss Clara Barton, and her associates In humanity. In tho Red Cross society's mission of mercy, civilization bids It God-speed. Dunmore, April 2. The Earth. "Yes," said Miss Cnshton, "Mr. Bllck ton proposed to me."

THAT'S THE NUMBER OF PHYSICIANS WHO USE THE NEW PREPARA TION FOR DYSPEPSIA AND WASTING DISEASES- THEY DO SO BECAUSE IT IS NOT A SECRET PATENT MEDICINE. Aad Because They Kitw It Cares Every lira el Indigestion aad Stem ach TreuMe. It has been recently stated that not less than 40,000 physicians are using or indorsing the new discovery for indi gestion sold by druggists under the name of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. Dr. Tomllnson gives the following rea sons why physicians regard this new remedy with so much favor. First, because It is not a secret patent madicine but a scientific combination ot vegetable essences, pure aseptic pepsin, free from animal Impurities and of very high digestive power, bismuth and gol den seal. It has been tested repeatedly and the experiments have proven that one grain of the digestive principles in Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets will digest three thousand times it own weight of lean meat, eggs, oatmeal and similar wholesome foods. The tablets act wholly upon the food taken Into the stomach, digesting It thoroughly no matter whether the stomach is In good working order or not, and cure all forms of dyspepsia and stomach troubles on the common sense plan that they nourish the body and rest the stomach at the same time. Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets do not act upon the bowels like the old-fashioned after-dinner pills; nor are they an arti ficial stimulant like "stomach bitters," nor are they In any way similar to so called pre-dlgested foods, which consist of 85 per cent, of "glucose," the stuff that cheap candles are made from, but Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets do what none of these do, they act wholly upon the food eaten and digest It completely and the cure of Indigestion Is an assured fact, because the food being promptly digested, it cannot lie for hours In the stomach, fermenting, decaying, filling the system with the germs of disease, but Is assimilated, nourishing and in vigorating not only the body and brain, but the stomach itself, as well. The tablets are absolutely harmless and can be given and are given with benefit to little children and Infants suf fering from indigestion, as shown above they contain no mineral poison, nor anything in any way injurious. Dr. Wuerth says he has noticed In many cases that the tablets not only cured in indigestion, but that a very noticeable Increase of flesh resulted where people who used the tablets were thin and run down In flesh before tak ing them, and it In not at all surprising that such should be the case when it is remembered that most people are thin because their stomachs are out of order, and when perfect digestion Is brought back an increase ot flesh is the natural accompaniment. AVithln the last six months many thousand cases of stomach trouble and dyspepsia have been cured by Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets and their conveni ence and popularity Is such that drug gists everywhere are now selling them. The price Is 60 cents per package and If your druggist has not yet ordered them he will get them for you from his whole Baler; they are manufactured by Stuart Co., Marshall, Mich. Your druggist, if he is honest, will tell you that Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets Is the only preparation now before the public recommended and designed solely for the cure of Indigestion and stomach troubles, no other claims are made for it, It is not claimed to be a cure-all. HE WAS REBUFFED. i And His l earnings for Womanly Sympa thy Scorned and Ulightcd. From the Detroit Free Press. I was going down to Staten Island the other Saturday afternoon on a crowded ferryboat and It happened that I got a seat next to a man about 60 years old who soon let me know that his home was in Central New York. AVe had talked for a bit when he said to me: "Stranger I rather like your looks and I want to sorter unbosom myself to you." I told him that I would preserve and respect his confidence and he continued: "My wife died about seven y'ars ago." "Yes, I took you for a widower." "When she died I thought I'd never git married agin, but I've kinder changed my mind about It. If I could find Jest the right sort o' woman I thing I'd enter the chains of matrimony agin. I believe they call it the chains, don't they?" "Yes, It is sometimes referred to In that way. Can't you tlnd the right sort of woman up your way?" "No, can't tlnd her. Thar's some I'd like, but they don't want me, and some wants me that I wouldn't marry no how. It's purty hard to git jest the sort o' woman you want. I've bin tryln' fur three years nnd haven't found her ylt." "Did you think you might pick one up down here?" I asked. "Say! that's what brung me down here!" he whispered In reply. Its JohI struck me that I'd hev me pick of thous ands here .in New York. Fact Is, I fol lowed a woman onto the boat who jest fills my eye. That's her a-sitten' over thar by the fat woman." The woman he pointed out seemed to me to be an old maid and a kicker, and so far as looks went she was the home liest woman on the boat. I was sur prised at the old man's choice, but said nothing to that effect. "Yes, she's my Idea of what a second wife orter to be." he said, as he rubbed his hands together, "but how am I goin' to speak to her?" "There's a vacant stool beside her. Go over and sit down and take occasion to say you are a stranger and ask her to give you information about this or that. She may be very pleasant or she-may re buff you. y "I think I'll do it." he said, as he got up and felt to see If his necktie was all right. I moved away at the time and didn't see him again for ten minutes. Then I ran across him In the cabin tucked awny in the owner and looking very pale-faced and perturbed. "Well,, how Jcome out?" I queried. S "Say! What did you say she might do to me?" he asked. "I said she might rebuff you. Did she?" "Stranger, I'm not quite sartln of It, but I think she did I think she did!" he solemnly relied. "I sot down beside her and said I was a Btranger.and asked her how high the Statter of Liberty was. and she swiped me over the head with her parasol and got some fellers to slam me around and run me In here. Yes, I kinder think she rebuffed me, and she kin go to grass and be hanged to her!" A THWARTED CRIME. A Curious Tale, tho Seene of Which Is Laid In India. From the London Globe. An Indian up-country paper tells a curious tale. A rich lady, with her two children, both infants, was going, It Is saidf In her own "ekka" from Ramnngar to a place in the center of the Bar tract. The driver was a trustworthy servant of the family, and It was for this reason that the lady had not divested herself of the ornaments she usually wore. But the sight of the Jewels was too much for him, and at an exceptionally lonely spot In that lonely country he suddenly asked his mistress to hand him her valuables. On her suspecting the real design and hesitating) the mlsoreant showed himself In his real colors, and made her and hor .little ones, who could barely toddle about) get down. . The horrible thought that was working1 in his brain, that or hiding his crime by means of murder, had given his faco a sardonic look, which made the poor wo man tremble. Then the fiend iKtuiid her. hand and foot, and Informed her that he would! first kill her children and then da her to death. By her earnest entretles she prevailed over him to begin with her tirst. tie had an ax in his hand, with which he aimed a blow at her, but the bead being loose. It flew away and fell a few paces off, the handle only remain ing In his grasp. He stepped into the grass to look for It and disappeared be hind a mound. She waited her certain doom with all her nerves on the strain She gradually fell Into a swoon, and when she came around the first thing she saw was her husband bending over ner ana her babies crying and tugging at her clothes. After she had left a nameless uneasi ness seised her husband. He could not reason away his vague fears, try as he would, and at last he mounted his horse and followed the "ekka.". He had pro ceeded but a few miles when the dread ful sight of his wife and children lying uouna up wttn cords on the ground met his eyes. And the story that his wife toia mm congealed his blood with hor ror. They both then, drawn by an lr repressible curiosity, went toward the direction that the miscreant had taken to pick up his ax. and think of their surprise when they saw his cornse al ready lying blue, putrid, and bloated, the flies buzzing over it In rlouds. Re tribution had come in the shape of a "karundla" of the dcadily variety known as "khaki." rare even In these snaKe infested parts, whose bite In stanteously paralyzes the victim and decomposes the body In an hour.
