TO KEEP TRAFFIC OPEN.
The Traction Company W ill Seo That it Is
Unite.
The meeting between Mayor O'Neill.
President Hendrlck. of the Traction
company, and W. L. fleers, of Clark &
Co., the mmi-at'lois for the erection of
the new bridges, did nut end in any
detinlte mensure being udopted for the
keeping open of trattlce on Klghth ave
nue. The teurlng out of the bridge ut
this pluce will especially Inconvenience
the, Traction eompauy, as It Is the only
pluce where their Hue curses the liver.
A proposition tlmt u foot bridge be
ciect'd at the Hy's rik was not ac
'cepted. President Hendrlck. however,
says thut they will keep irullic open
at the pluce.
The city will probably be asked to
have a temporary bridge built across
the river ut Sixth avenue. This is the
nearest and most convenient way to
the city station nml Trinity church,
and ns the work will take ut least a
month, some way should be furnished
p.dest: lans for croxshig.
CI.fH MAY MOVE.
Providing tho .Mayor With on Offieo May
rn use l.nckmvunnu Club's Kcmovol.
It looks as is the Lackawanna club
will be forced to vacate their pretty
rooms In tho Municipal building. Mayor
O'Neill wants nn olflce In the building,
and as he prefers the rooms now occu
pied by the club, they will have to go.
At the meeting of the councils Mr.
lilennon of the Fourth ward, introduced
a resolution, providing that the city
furnish suitable quarters in the city
. building for the otflces. There is no
doubt but what the resolution Is per
fectly just, and Mayor O'Neill should
have an otllce us many people who wish
lo see him are unable to do so during
the present slate of ufl'ulrs There are,
however, plenty of available rooms,
ether than that which the club uccupies.
and they will probably muke a fight
against their removal. The lease which
the club made for one year has run out.
and as they fulled to renew It. they
may meet with dlttlculty on this ac
count. TWO ACCIDENTS.

hurt although the nature of her In
juries can not yet be determined. They
seem confined to her hip. and bruises
about the body.
Udwurd Hartwell, of Pike street. Is
the second unfortunute, his Injuries be

care, which was given him. He was
hewing fence posts at the time, when
the axe he was using glanced off and
Inllicted a serious tut on the left leg.

Is gravity engineer at No. lift head,

AN APPEAL FOR AID
i
Thousands in the Throes of
Tobacco Torture.
Only Prompt Decisive Action Can Save Them
Some Already Saved Prove That
There If a Way.
Are these the
days of freedom?
Is everybody out
of bondage?
Would that we
could answer, "Yes,
Everybody's free."
But. In fact, at
the end of this en
lightened century,
there are hundreds
of thousands, yes,
millions of men In
the clutches of a
tyrant worse than
any In history, un
able to fight their way to liberty, Im
potent to break their fetters.
When once the tobacco habit gets Its
grip on a man. It destroys his nerve and
will nower, and robs him of his only
means of defense. His lire Is sapped
out of him, his manhood destroyed, his
brain deadened, until he becomes a sal
low, skinny, listless wreck of a man,
his existence a living death, and him
self an object of disgust Instead of love
and affection to those who lire deur to
him.
Is there no hope?
There Is. Only .one No-To-Bac the
wonderful guaranteed medicine. Even
after years of slavery. No-To-Bac cures
without full. Nobody's case could be
worse than the following:

You can buy of us either for cash or credit. Which
ever way you buy our prices will be found the lowest

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 not be many
more.

As a matter of fact and
couimou sense, it is a mistake'
to pay a swell tailor $20 to
$35 for a Spring Suit. We'll
duplicate the cloth he uses
and charge you from $8 to
$15 tor exactly the same ma
terial. As far as fit and make
are concerned, we'll agree to
fit you as perfectly as any
body iu Scranton. This may
sound like boasting, but it's
true, nevertheless.
