dule and Kaston. whlrh will doubtless
be very close aod exeltlrs, a these two
rluhs are about tied for third -place,
although we have the advantage at
I.rpscttt. .
The t-hanrj from Anthracite to
Alumni iiailc will no doubt Increase tha
attendance at the a-an.-e as there will
then be a larRor territory to draw from
und no "Deadhead" hill to contend
nwlnst. The diamond Is In as perfect
condition as could possibly be. Contrac
tor Atkinson 'having- worked hard to
a-et It in shape for today. The diamond
has been swung around to the tast
sliKhtly.
The- grand stand Is completed and Is
very handsome and comfortable. It Is
erected In audi a- manner that the sun
will not be in tho eyes of spectators at
any time in the day. To add to the
rafety of those who occupy tho stand
a heavy wire netting has been put up.
Bleachers have also been erected and
with those already up will seat a large
number of people.
The other Improvements at the park
are nearlng completion. The race track,
which Is one-fourth of a mile In length,
will be ready for service In a few days.
Takins everything Into consideration
the change In the parks will not only
be a benefit to the association, but will
odd much to the comfqrt of the people.

SUDDEN DEATH.
Thomnv i. Burke Fouud Dead in Ilia
Chair.
Thomas Q. Burke, a resident of Cot
tnse street, and one of the oldest clti
sens, died very suddenly Thursday
evening. He had. been sick for some
time, but It was not thought to be any
thing serious, so his demise was a great
shook to his family and friends.
Just before supper Mr. Burke was
sitting in his chair, when his head sud
denly fell back and he passed away.
The family would only believe the
terrible news after vain efforts to re
store him.
Mr. Burke had been a resident of this
place for the Inst fifty-three years. He
was born In Ireland elghty-mree years
ago. He had been engaged In the mine
department of the Delaware and Hud
son, which position he was obliged to
give up some time ago cm account of
his 111 health and advanced years.
A widow and ten children survive.
The funeral will be held on Monday, a
requiem high mass being celebrated In
St. Rose church at 9 o clock.
SEVERELY SHOCKED.
Frank Collins Knocked Dow n by nn
I'.lectric Current.
During the severe storm of Thursday
evening several electric light wires
about the city were broken. Frank
Collins, one of the employes of the elec
trie light company, was repairing one
or the. breaks when he had an expert
ence which he will not care to repeat.
He was standing on a step ladder
fixlxpg one of the wires In front of Rch
fcojs building, on South Main street.
In handllns- the wire he received a ter
llble shock, p. current of 1.100 voltage
passing through his body. He was
thrown heavily to the ground and it Is
wcr.ai.-rful that ho was not killed out'
right. He was badly bruioed but r
i.Tivcd no Injuries that will prove se
ilous. There was quite an electrical
display when the wire broke and many
ptcple were attracted by the electric
rpurks.

ises to be a big success. Over a hun
dred tickets have already been pur

Extreme tired feeling afflicts nearly every
body at t his season. Tho hustlers cease to
push, the tireless grow weary, the ener
getic become euervated. You know just
what we mean. Some men and women
endeavor temporarily to overcome that
Feeling by great force ot will. But this
is unsafe, as it pull3 powerfully upon the
nervous system, which will not long stand
such strain. Too n;any people " work on
their nerves," and t he result is seen in un
fortunate wrecks marked "nervous pros
tration," in every direction. That tired
ing Is a positive proof ot thin, weak, im
pure blood; for, If tho blood la rich, red,
vitalized and vigorous, it imparts llfeand
energy to every norre, organ and tissue
of the body. The necessity of taking
Hood's Sursaparilla for that tired feeling

tho good it will do you is equally beyond
