This W eek.
The first session cf the State conven
tion of Ancient Order of Hibernians,
Board of Erin, was held yesterday
inornlr.. It was railed to order at 10
o'clock by State DelcRate C. T. Boland.
of Scranton, and was mainly for the
purpose cf examining the credentials
of the delegates. A committee consisting-
of SI lies McAndrew. f Archbald:
Joseph McLaughlin, of Philadelphia,
and M. M. Sweeney, of Luserne, were
apiolnted for the purpose.
The parade which was to have taken
place at two o'clock, was obliged to bo
postponed until evening, as the heavy
rain put the streets in' a bad condition.
It was successfully held however, in the
evenlnff. and there was cuite a larce
number in line.
All the delegates were present at the
rioductlon of "Arrah Na, Pngue" by the
Garrlt-k Dramatic society in the even
ing. The society should be proud of the
manner In which the play wa fflven
and many of the cast would have done
credit to a professional. The usual
hitches- and unpleasant occurrences
which are found In amateur produc
tions did not occur and the whole play
was filled with life and spirit. The scen
ery which has been prepared especially
fnr the play and the elaborate costumes
did much toward mnklnir the play a pro
nounced success. It will be repeated to
nlpht. The sessions of the convention ore
secret so there will be little known for
publication. All that is deemed proper
will be given by a press committee.
' A SERIOUS INJURY.
Joseph T. Kirl.bridc Hits a Peculiar
Accident.
A peculiar ncc-lrlent occurred to Jo

suffering great pain, lie was obliged
to take several stitched to close the hole,
which was about one and a halt inches

PETITION FOR THE BRIDGE.

the councils that body was presented
with a petition asking for a new struc
ture at that place.
The nunu-o of many prominent busi
