ri-i ;i 11 Inn imsim ;
"Ktw Dr. McLeod, who was much In

There Is nw.l uf just such a man. He
lias Iil-as. all his own, ami he Is lint
nfra'il In express them whether they
are in harmony v!th those of others or
rot. He never wavers from his convic
tions, and only nits tlown when voted
il.uvn. lie evidently admires the man
with spirit enouich to li;;ht for what he
lielicvcs to he risrht, for when KluVr
Dickson spoke against the ovi rturcs he
pn pos'd sinilliii; to tile policial as
sembly, the doctor said: "1 am Kla.il
there is one elder here who dares op
pose his pastor." The iillestlon was de
bated, hotly, too, und the elder won. In
less than live minutes the doctor and
elder were havlnir a hearty embrace In
the rear of the church. That spirit of
brotherly love seemed to dominate In
every individual. No unpleasant per
sonal feelliiKS were engendered by the
strictest nnlngonisni 011 nuestions at
issue. Dr. Mcl.end has n happy facul

sires through the presbytery when ins

Her hat was a larpe one with a wealth
of black feathers, and over her should

ELECTION NEXT TUESDAY
County
Superintendent of Schools
Will Be Chosen.
TAYLOR WILL BE I'XOITOSED
Mayor Bailey Think That There Will Not
Me a .Meeting of .Select Council on
- Thursday Night-Coins to
State Convention.
Next Tuesday morning. May?, at 10
o'clock, the school directors of Lacka
wanna county, except those ot Hcrau
ton. Carbondale and Dunmore. will as
semble In l!- main room of the court
bouse uu.l elect a county superintend
ent of schools. J. C. Taylor, the pres
ent superintendent, will, to ull appear
ances, be re-elected without any oppo
positlon. Sir. Taylor Is being accorded what it
has been customary to fc'ivo to county
superintendents in the oast, a second
teim. He has spoken on his visits
around the county to the different di
rectors, und they seem to be agreed
that his service in the ottlce has been of
such sulliclent and satisfactory nature
ns to entitle him to a second term.
There are : directors in the county,
und they will meet, elect a chairman
nnd secretary nnd proceed through the
routine of balloting. It will nlso Is
necessary to 11 x the salary of the super
intendent. That will very likely take
Up but very li'tle time, US Iheiv does
Pot aoiiear to be a disposition to In
crease Hie amount from $2,0n0 R year,
at which figure it lias remained for sev
eral veins.
out of this the superintendent must
pay the expenses of the titlice, which
amount to about Sseo u year, leaving
him $1,200 net.
There Is some talk about the streets
of a special meeting of select council.
Thursday night, to receive Mayor Hal
ley's appointments, but in city hall
nothing is known of any such intended
move.
Several Democratic selectmen who
were Interviewed, said they had heard
no Intimation of a call further than
street rumor, and if a call was to be
made they felt that they wniiui know
something about It. City Clerk l,n
velle, who would necessarily bo called
upon t.i Issue the notices If the meet
lug was to be called by the chairman,
had 110 knowledge of nny Intended
meeting.
Mayor Ilailey, when approached on
the subject, said he had no intention of
c ulling a meeting, nnd had heard noth
ing of any intended special meeting.
"If there Is a meeting Thursday night
will you send In your appointments?"
he was asked.
"It is not likely that there will be a
meeting."
"Hut, If there is a meeting, will your
appointments go In?
"No, 1 think not," answered the may
or after a few moments ot deliberation,
The Indications are that the aspir
ants are doomed to another week on the
anxious scut.
Mayor Ilailey absolutely reiuses lo
commit himself for publication with re
gard to the appointments he contem
plates making. Within the last few
days a slate has several times appeared
In print, which, It is said, he has de
cided upon. It gives Captain ltobling
the position of chief of police, promotes
Patrolman John Molr to the ofllce of
captain, and puts Common Councilman
P. J. Hlckey in ehnrge of the tire de
partment. These men may be appoint
ed; and, In fact, It is the general lm
.presslon now among the leading Dem
ocrats of the city that Robling Is sure
of the police department berth, but at
the same time they are not betting nny
large amount of their coin on the entire
slate mentioned above.
If the mayor has decided upon his ap
pointments, as many believe, It is only
reasonable to suppose that he would
call a meeting of the select council
Thursday night and present his men for
the consideration of the selectmen.
That would end the a;--ony he has been
enduring since election. No appoint
ments 'Will be made Thursday night,
Fays the mayor, and from this the con
clusion Is drawn that he is not yet
ready to speak his mind In the matter.
In the meantime the persistent sports
men are getting more nnd more hungry
with each succeeding day, but many
men who used to spend hours each day
In their back yards learning how to
swing a policeman's club with ease nnd
grace, have become disgusted and are
returning to the ordinary vocations of
life, where the lime light of publicity
does not so eagerly search a man out
ns when he wears the blue.
The Lackawanna Democrats will
start today for Allentown to attend
Harrlty's state convention, County
Chairman James O'Neill and the dele
gates elected by his committee will
leave this morning on n Delaware and
Hudson train for Wllkes-Rarre and
from that place will proceed to Allen-
town over the Lehigh Valley road.
They will be accompanied by a number
of Democrats whose interests ure linked
with those of the delegates.
At 12.45 the delegates who will con
test the right of the men elected by the
county committee to hold seats In the
convention will start for Allentown. go
ing over the central Railroad of New-
Jersey. These men are anxious to lie
recognized for the reason that they will
have the naming of the two national
delegates from this county If they suc
ceed in getting seats In the convention
to the exclusion of county committee
men.
THEY ARE TO HE AVOIDED.
Death lie J Kcpentcnccs tho Subject o f the
Sermon nt the Catlicdr.il.
Rev. P. F. Qulnnun, of Plttston,
preached the sermon at the cathedral
last night. No sermon will be deliv
ered tonight, that the confessions of all
may be heard. The forty hours' devo
tion will close tomorrow morning with
a high mass at li o'clock.
Rev, Father Qulnnnn's theme was on
the necessity of being at nil times pre
pared for death: not to delay repent
ance until the deathbed. He spoke of
persons who pass along through life
with very little regard for their salva
tion, hoping to wait until old age comes
upon them, nnd then they expect to
have sulllclcnt time, when they are
good for nothing else, 40 pray nnd make
their pence with Almighty Ood. Ex
perlences are presented every day
around us to teach well the lesson that
no one can tell nt what hour und In
what manner death will come, hence
the necessity of being at all times pre
pared. J. It. CAnTiEV'S 'troubles.
Ills Drug Storo Sold Out by the Shoriff
Vcsterdny.
Deputy Sheriff T. J. Price went to
Providence yesterday afternoon and
sold out the drug store of John 11. Cnf
fiey, on West Market street. Tho sale
brought $105, and the stock was bought
In by Klehtml Caffrey, the defendant's
father, who was the first to enter un

O'Donnell had a Judgment, for $123.75
for board; li. A. Knight hnd a con
stable's writ for $il.r for wages; and
there was another wage claim amount
ing to $7. The money realised on tho

that are entered.
Senator M. K. McDonald, represent
ing Richard Cnffrcy, (lied a petition In
court yesterday for a writ of alterna
tive mandamus directed to Alderman
P. De Lacy, of the Seventh ward, that
he show cause why be refused to ac
cept paynwnt of coata in the assumpsit
suit of A. P. O'Donnell against John
li. Caffrey for the board bill afore
mentioned, in order that the defendant
could appeal the case.
Mr. o Donnell sued Druggist Caffrey
for $12S.ii and got judgment. The
petition for the mandamus alleges that
on April 20 the defendant went to the
alderman's office and offered to pay the
costs, which were $15.61 so aa to take
n appeal, nut the alderman refused
to accept the costs, and now the court
la asked to compel him. The writ la
made returnable on Monday, May 11,
at a. m. The effort tei appeal was
made by the druggist's father; the drug

What a silly thing It Is to attempt to
conduct any business, be It millinery,
clothing, real estate or Hiiy lino of legiti
mate trade upon the assumption ttoat your
patrons, whose trade you solicit, are to
be creatures entirely berert or interest.
You can deneml uuon It when cheao
prices -are taiivertlsed the articles so ad
vertised ara cheap or out of date. Per
haps such advertising "pays," but that Is
not tne Kinu we uo. we are Belling mil
linery upon the basis of a permanent ami
constantly Increasing trade to make it
an advertising medium by itself, and ns
we stated In our first "ad." which was
our bow to th8 public and we state it
again, uur styles anu qualities are right
and prices as low as any house in tho
state. If purchases ure not entirely sat
