Meld Mmil.iv
' Next Monday will mark the opening
i t the tuwe bull season in this city,
und the dliectois of the Curboinlale
Base i-ittll association at a meeting held
yesterday morning decided that the
event should be celebru'ed in u tilting
manner.- Accordingly a street parnde
lias been aininfred In which the Cur
bulidale imd Potts llle clubs will par
ticipate. After the 'juiude the clubs
will reptile to Anthracite park, where
lliey will contest for the supremacy of
the-diamond. Muyor O'Neill will throw
the Hist bull over the ulate und then
the base bull .Season in this city will
be In full sway. There will ulso be
music on the grounds.
Although uiir boys have not met with
the success We wished lor 'lieiii. we
have not yet give lii cunlldence in them

TO IMl'ROVK TIIK JAIL.
.Modern Cages to bo Provided for I nfor
tunnte Lodgers.
The councils have nt lust taken action
In regard to the Jail, which hus been
such a disgrace to the city for such u
longtime. It is bad enough to be placed
in confinement, but to be obliged to be
shut Up In the cells, which form our
jail Is cruel und unhilman. The place
hus been condemned by physicians as
unhealthy, but nothing definite hud
been done.
The public building committee and
Mayor O'Neill visited the place on Sut
uiday and they will probably recom
mend thut the old cells be torn out
und replaced by the modern iron cages.
AN IRISH COMEDY.
Arrah-na-l'ogne Is tho Name To Ho Pre
sented Mnx 111 nnd 'id.
As announced the Oerrick Dramatic
society and the request of muny of
their friends decided to give an Irish
play on the occasion of the Ancient
Order of Hibernians' convention. The
club ufter a great deal of consideration
have selected the pretty Irish comedy,
Arrah-nu-pough." as best suited to
their purport.
The ii-oululion which the society al
ready hes renders it almost ,unneces
sury to predict the success of the play.
This. . however, promises to excel all
past attempts.

You can buy of lis either for cash or credit. Which,
ever way you buy our prices will be found the lowest
in town. We like to have customers come in and
talk to us about the matter. We like to explain to
them how it is that we can afford to sell so low and
give credit at the same time. There are plenty of
men here in Scranton who bought of us on credit and
there is no reason why there should najt be many
more.

As a" matter of fact and
common sense, it is a mistake
to pay a swell tailor $20 to
535 for a Spring Suit. We'll
duplicate the cloth lie uses
and charge you from $8 to
$15 lor exactly "the same ma
terial, As far as fit and make
are concerned, we'll agree to
fit you as perfectly as an'
body in Scranton. This may
sound like boasting, but it's
true, nevertheless.
