THE CLUB WILL STAY.
It M ill Be (iiven Another Tritil
in
This City.
The Carbondalc base ball team will
be a fixture here this season, at least
the directors of the association have
decided to give It another trial In this
place.
This will begood news to all base
. ball cranks. ho have ben trembling
th"last two or three days, not know-
utl,fi tlw, oefula ivntild be nnssed
favorably. The decision, however, re
lieves their feelings which have been
rather depressed.
On the return of the team, the games
will probably be transferred to Alumni
park which will do muen toward pay
ing the expenses of the club. We will
have a larcer district to draw from
and consequently a larger patronage.
Enough (Money has been raised to
set he club'upon their feet again and
there will be no more expenses until
:the first of June. For the purpose of
raising money for the team the game
on June 1st will be a benefit one and
tickets sold at prices to be chosen by
the purchaser. This benefit game will
'probably tide over the financial diffi
culties so the winner of the pennant
this year will bear the name of this
city.
: An offer was made from the Scranton
association for Massey, Cargo and
McQuade. They were willing to pay
1400 for the three men but It didn't go.
Swift will not manage the team
much longer. It Is said that he has re
ceived a good offer elsewhere. The as
sociation said he could go If he wanted
to and paid him In; full. He went to
Hazieton with the team today.

MURDER A MINE BOSS.
Griff. K. Roberts, rorsserlj or Ashler,
killed y That.
Griff. R. noberts. general superin
tendent for the Lehigh and Wilkes
Barre Coal company, in the Haxleton
region, was found along the railroad
near the Lehigh Valley shops at Hasle
ton, about 10.30 Thursday evening, with
his skull crushed and in an unconscious
condition. Ho was removed to the
Hasleton hospital where he died at 10
o'clock yesterday morning.
The man was discovered by the en
gineer of a passenger train running
into. Hasleton at the time mentioned.
He lay along the outside of the track,
and the train was topped when within
a few feet of his body. It was first
thought that the man had been struck
by a previous train, but later Investi
gation leads to the belief that he was
foully dealt with. As he did not regiin
consciousness it Is probably that the
true facts of the case may never be
known.
The dt-ud superintendent was very
popular and enjoyed the esteem of all
who knew him. He had been In the
Hazleton region 15 years, going there
from Ashley, where he had been a mine
boss under the same company. He had
been a leading member of the Knights
of Pythias and also the Royal Arca
num. He was 44 years old and leaves
a widow, who Is visiting at Bangor,
Pa., two children, Mrs. Dr. Foos and a
son Walter.
FIGHT DECLARED OFF.
Judge Seem Afraid lo Meet HitydcN
iu the Ring
Sporting men are disappointed be
cause of the fact that the great fight
announced to take place between Hay
den, of this city, and Judge, of New
York, has been declared off. Judge has
been In training at Scranton and Hay
den ut the Luzerne house, Plttston.
Judge sent word to Hayden that he had
been Injured by Verner, his trainer, and
that he would be unable to light at the
proper time, iiayuen s oacKers were
suspicious and culled upon Judge,
whom they found with his leg done up
In a plaster cast. Judge said he had
been struck bv Verner and felled
against a piece of furniture. Hayden's
backers do not believe the story, but
assert that It Is only a ruse to avert
fighting. They are trying to arrange a
fight with Vernon, whom Hayden
seems anxious to meet.
Burglars at Plymouth.
Burglars have up to now made a
shining mark In Tlymouth. and Thurs
day night, or early yesterday morning,
they thought that, as usual. Plymouth
would again fall on easy prey. But
over-eonlldence got he better part of
their discretion, for the noise which
they made In trying to break through
the plato-glass windows of Jeweler I,
Gloo awakened the neighborhood and
In less than no time Max Reese, I. Las
ser, George McAlarney and J. W.
James were on the scene with an as
sortment of weapons and minus a con
siderable portion of their wearing ap
parel, a general fusilade was at once
commenced, at what, no one seems able
to tell. Some one said that cries and
groans were heard, but no blcod could
be found.
The Dog Pound.
The dog pound under the wire bridge
Is being fitted up Into a hospital f-r the
core of canines. A separate compart
ment Is built for each dog. Yesterday
eight degs were In pound. One a val
uable p'lg was claimed by a boy named

. LAWREXCKVILLE.
The extraordinary rapidity with
which this picturesque place has In
creased and developed during the past
few years, together with Its rich and
opulent resources, ha made it known,
and that evidently as one of the pretti
est environments of Scranton. A few
years back there was seen but one shaft
in the direct vicinity, which is now un
der the control of the Delaware, Lacka
wanna and Western. But today there
are five large and productive mines,
the breakers of which are towering their
lofty peaks towards the blue concave of
heaven and evincing the subterranean
wealth which underlays them In con
nection with which thousands derive
the means of livelihood.
This encouraging increase has addeo.
greatly to the serious responsibility of
the Christian church as an Institution
that claims a superhuman attlnity by
which the Incorporeal needs of man
can be uinply supplied. And by the
present order of things we see that the
church has responded most pralse
worthlly to the religious necessities of
the neighborhood, for there are five
strong religious communities represent
ed at the present day. According to
the current report the number will per
ceptibly Increase for the handsome
basement which W. Boun Ih erecting is
the foundation of the Congregational
edifice. TnlB branche has been since Us
organisation, which was solemnized a
Utile over twelve months ago, holding
divine service at school house No. 1 and
as the fine eternallties are so evidently
powerful in their attractions upon the
superficial mind, little, very little, would
we expect the development of this
young plant to be.
But It seems this old school house,
rough as It truly Is, nas been a place of
comfort, blessing and success to the
young Congregational church. The
site which they have chosen, or rather
which was generously and uncondi
tionally donated to the church by our
admirable fellow-citizen, William Cou
ncil, of Scranton, Is one of attraction
and cnnvenlece. and as such It Is hoped
the new edifice will facilitate and pre
cipitate the realization of the desired
end to crown the Indefatigable cil'ort of
the good and earnest people who com
pose It with strength and lnliuence.
The masonry work, which Is now an
object of observation to the passers by,
Is beautifully and substantially done,
and that with a very precious green
stone, which, I am told, was quarried
in this valley, and those who are better
posted than the writer In geology, speak
lauilibly or its superior qualities.
. Next Monday, May 2i, will he a
memorable day In the history of this
church, for then this fine foundation
will be pronounced ready to receive
upon It the ecclesiastical structure,
which will, when completed, bo Rn ex
quisitely fine edifice. It Is then the
corner stone will be laid by Mrs. Y.'ill
lnm Connell, of Scrantcn, wno, to the.
gratification of the church, compiled
with their unanimous rctititst of p.'r
with their unanimous request of per
forming that function. The corner
stone tins been viewed and examined oy
siime distinguished artists, and the cur
rent opinion Is highly In Its praise. On
It the following Inscription has been
artistically carved: "Laurence Con
gregational church, Built 1S96."
A large assembly Is expected to con
vene at this respective locality at 2.M)
p. m. Monday to witness the laying of
the corner-stone by Mrs. Connell and
to hear the addresses which some of
our Illustrious citizens will deliver to
celebrate with honor and solemnity the
memorable event

THE WRONG BOTTLK.
And the Uiddy toting Man Wished He
Had Not Been Quite Ho 8mnrt.
From Pearson's Weekly.
In a Pullman car on the Manchester,
Sheffield and Lincolnshire Railway the
other week a young traveler noticed
an old, white-bearded gentleman trying
to get into a light dust coat. The young
man rushed to his assistance, and In
helping him with the garment noticed
a good-sized whiskey flask protruding
from one of his pockets. Being of a
waggish nature he appropriated the
bottle, helped the stranger on with his
coat, and then pulling out the flask
said: "Will you take a diink?"
The old man did not recognize the
bottle, and drawing himself up re
marked severely:
"No, sir; I never drink."
"It won't hurt you," Insisted the wag;
"it's the best."
"Young man," said the old gentle
man, speaking loud enough for all In
the carriage to hear, "If you persist
In drinking whisky you will be a ruined
man at 40. It is the curse of the land.
When I was a boy my mother died,
and the last thing she did was to call
me to her bedside and say: "John, prom
ise me that you. will never touch a
drop of liquor." .
"Oh, well. In that case," said tho
Joker, "I must drink It myself." where
upon, suiting the action to the words,
he pulled the cork out and took a
good drink,
A moment later he dropped the bottle
with an exclamation wbleh certainly
dldn'J seurtd like a blesf. And yelled
outi'Ughi Ugh! my mddtn's alt raw!"
. Then It, was the old gentleman dis
covered his loss, and lo the anuifx-
ment of the other passengers, said: "Ah,
young man, you will be careful In the
future before you take other people'a
property. I am Dr. and that bottle
contained some quinine and iron tor
one of my patients."
The young man got out at the next
station. -

At our store will save anywhere from $1.00 to $5.00. We
state this as a fact, not as an idle boast. Go around and see
what kind of a suit you can get for $9.50 at the other stores,
then come here and get the same thing exactly for $7.00.
More important still, if you haven't got the money, we
will trust you. Any honest man's credit is good in this
store. We will sell him stylish clothes and he can pay for
them a little at a time, and he can enjoy the pleasures that
good clothes afford all the time he is paying for them. Come
in and talk to us 'about it.
