Tonight by the festal board where the
goddess of plenty has lavished upon her
chosen ones the treasures of her cornuco
pia, we gather to do homage to our tlod
and country. We sit where no poisoned
wine sparkles In the liiilit of a thousand
Humes. Instead, with one accord und
bound by the ties of common faith, we
revel lu a feast of reusun u:id a flow of
soul. About our Icinquct board we know
no cisle. Tonight we realise, the foroe
of that declaration which Is founded upon
the leachigs of divine truth. I" mm that
truth springs the fountain head of Justice.
That Justice which has Its seat in the
bosom of God. That Justice which can bp
administered only to free ami equal beings.
To uphold und protect these cherished
principles which perpetuate the fame und
glory uf our country Is the birthright or
each succeeding generation of our Amerl
canpcoplc. Itorn umlerthefoldsof a banner
which has been consecrated by the blood
of martyrs and of heroes and blesued by
of lust prayer of the humblest soldier on
the field of battle our duty to our coun
try's cause becomes Imperative. No voice
must prompt but the voice of duty. We
need no battle cry to arms.

Law Students uf Missouri I'nivrrsity
Likely to Lose Diplomas.
Columbia, Mo., May 21. Who put the
tack In Judge Martin's chair Is the
question which Is being asked vei;y
seriously by the senior law students of
Missouri university. Judge Alexander
Martin Is denn of the law department.
Recently a law student nut u tack In
his chair, which caused him much pain
nnd indignation, and he is sparing no
efforts to find the culprit.
It Is his belief that the members of

Itepublicaas of Select Council Call
a Hull to the Mayor.
It was expected that there would be
high times around the council cham
bers last night, but they did not come
to pass.
There was to have been a joint con
vention to select a board to examine
applicants for the ofllce of building in
spector. Select council was to have
considered the Monroe avenue paving
contract, and the appointment of John
Fltzsimnions as patrolman to be even
tually captain of police. Common
council also might have had some more
fun over the minutes relating to the re
consideration of the paving contract,
as there was lots of tight left In the out
witted Barber men. Hut all this did
not lumpen.
The determination of the Republican
majority of the upper branch to call a
halt to Mayor Halley's policy of cold
blooded removals, and an Injunction
from court. Issued at the instance of
the Barber Asphalt company, restrain
ing the city executive and legislative
otticers from further consideration of
the Monroe avenue contract, account
for the disappointments.
THE REPt'RLICANS' INJUNCTION.
Not a single Republican selectman
put in an appearance at city hall. A
caucus had been held and It was mu
tually agreed to refrain from attending
the meeting and thereby prevent the
Joint session. They believed that the
muyor should not remove John Nelson,
the present Inspector, until his term ex
pires, which will be May 10, 1897, unless
he deserves removal from Incompetency
or some breach of duty, which no one
will drre accuse him of. As It was to
be a purely partisan removal, the Re
publlans concluded that the present
was as good a time as any to take a
determined stand against the adminis
tration's bad policy, and they took It.
The ten Democrats were on hand and
so were John Fltzsimnions and a couple
of Demociatlc builders. who looked very
much like seekers after Nelson's berth.
They could do nothing but sit around
and praise things, and this they did for
about half an hour, when thing of the
employment, the Democratic ten went
Into caucus in one of the committee
rooms and the ofllce hunters followed
by the spectators, went home.

In Its complaint the Burlier com
pany, through Its attorneys. W. W.
Watson. W. S. biehl, and F L. Hitch
cock, alleges that the awarding or the
contract to Dunn Brothers by common
council wus Irregular und Illegal und
snouia select council concur in the ac
tion of the lower branch yreat and ir
reparable Injury would be done the
complainant. After reciting the action
or common council by which the con
tract was tukeu away from the Barber
company und given to Dunn Brothers,
the petition goes on to suy that council's
action was illegal; llrst, because It
went trom tne eighth to the third order
of business without the necessary two
thirds vote as required by section 2 of Its
rules: "lo rule shall be susuended ex
cept by a two-thirds vote"; second,
because the motion to reconsider the
award was made and seconded bv
members who had voted In the minority.
wiucn is aiso an lnmneeinent or the
rules: third, because Dunn Brothers
railed to prove that they would use
pitch lnke asphalt as required by the
specifications and further that thev
have had no experience In the laying of
asphalt pavement. Further compluint
is made that as the awardimr of the
contract to Dunn Brothers Is lllegul and
vuKi, serious complications would arise
and no legal or binding asscssmentn
ror tne cost or the improvement could
be innde.
Affidavits signed by W. P. Griffiths
and N. H. Lowry setting forth that
Dunn Brothers have lulled to show that
they will use pitch lake asphalt or as
phalt proven equally as good and that
the Barber company can and will use,
the standard asphalt, accompanied the
petition, as did aiso a certified copy of
the minutes of common- council of
last Thursday night.
Chairman Oner. Clerk Hatton nnd
City Clerk Lavelle were duly enjoined

ALSO GUILTY OF FORGERY.
Owcb Moraa Warks aa Entirely New
Sraratr.
Since Owen Moran was sent to the
county jail Monday at the instance of
the liay State Publishing company for
spending $o0 of the money he was en
gaged to collect for them. It has de
veloped that he has also been guilty of
forgery.
The local manager of the company.
Joseph P. Reddlngton, discovered upon
attempting to collect some bills, that
the parties had never ordered nor re
ceived the books, notwithstanding that
Moran presented ut the store written
orders with their names and addresses,
evidently written by themselves. An
Investigation showed that these nanus
hud been forged and that the Is inks
secured by this means had been sold at
ridiculously low prices by Moran, who
pocketed the money.
A warrant was sworn out before Al
derman Donovan yesterday charging
Moran with forgery. He was taken
down from Jail and given a bearing
which resulted in his being called upon
to furnish t.'SH) additional bail. lie, of
course, could not. and was sent back to
await trial on the two charges.
A LARGE HOUSE LAUGHED.
Kennedy's Players Present Kruiiuic
in a Dramatized I'orui.
A large house at the Frothlngham

over the Kennedy players' presentation
of "The Two Thieves," which is nothing
more or less than "Ermlnle" in a dram
atized form.
John J. Kennedy and George W. liar
bier ns the two thieves did the most
excellent work. The other members of
the cast acquitted themselves with
credit and all In all gava a very enter

PILGRIMAGE OF MALTAS.
I hey Will Come Here In State to Attend
the Conclave Progress of
Work ol Decorating.
Malta commandery of Binghamton
will bring to next week's conclave one
of the largest representations of Sir
Knights that will be here. They will
rome in special vestlbuled cam attached
to the Lackawanna train which leaves
Binghamton at 7 o'clock Tuesday morn
ing and reaches here at o'clock. The
cars will be the headquarters of the
commandery during Its stay. The
Malta Sir Knights will take dinner at
Ilanley's restaurant.
While much has been written and said
about what the Sir Knights are doing,
the planning of the railroads has been
left practically unnoticed. The district
pussenger agents and other otllciuls of
the several Hues entering Scranlun have
fur weeks been preparing to meet the
greutly Increased lialllc expected uu the
llrst three duys uf the week. It requires
u great iiiuuiint of detailed work -to ar
range for safely and quickly trunspot
lug the extra thousands who will be
here.
Tuesday morning especially will wit
ness the arrival of scores of extra cars,
and to dear the depot platforms of peo
ple and perform the switching will not
be un easy task, but It has all been ur-
rauged and every pi uutluu taken to
guard against iiccldont und to expedite
the traffic.
The work of decorating Is being rapid
ly pushed. Thoughtless persons won
der w hy so much binding Is tiling to the
breeze for duys In udvnticc of the con
clave. It Is dune now because there are
not enough drapery hungers in the cit
ies of the size of Sciantuii to do the
work !n two duys or three. Even with
such a big start. It Is certain that the
small army of workmen wlo an.. here
from other cities and those from Scran
ton will be busily occupied until the
conclave begins.
