Tlie dispatches did not give the cause of death, and no further Infor mation has been lecelved up to a late hour Inst night. The demise, however, must have been a. sudden one, ns a let ter received .Monday from Mrs. Evans by her father, Henjamln Hughes, gen eral inside foreman of the Delaware, Lackawanna and Western company, did not tefer to any Illness 111 the fami ly. Mr. Hughes, accompanied by his dnughler, .Mrs. A. 15. Kynon. and Mr. and Mis. Jenktn Heese will leave this morning for Westerly to attend the fu neral. SKETCH OF DECEASED. John 15 vans was born In Llnndyfry, Carniai thenshlre, In 1S41, and was one of four brothers who distinguished themselves ns theologians and pulpit orators. He enmo to America shortly before the civil war and his first minis terial charge was in Lancaster, Pa. Afterward he came to Scranton and ' shortly after his' marriage to Esther, daughter of nenjamln Hughes, In 1SCT, he became pastor of the First "'elsh Baptist church. Ills work here won him the love and admiration of a vast number of people In the Lackawanna und Wyoming valleys. Ills fame spread and he wns successively called to pastorates of churches In Hrooklyn, where his eldest daughter, Nellie, was married to Dr. Hoxle, a prominent phy sician of that city; and to Westerly, where he has been stationed for the past seventeen years. Uesides his work in tho - pulpit Sir. Evans devoted much time to contem porary public affairs and his eplgrn matlc and humorous essays and ora tions won for him a widespread fame. Especially was he Interested In his fel low countrymen. AS A WELSH SCHOI.Alt. Though American customs and the peculiarities of American living claimed hint yet he never forgot the motherland und as a speaker of the Welsh tongue he was an authority. No local conference of Welsh ministers or a "cyinnmfn," ns it is called, had the genuine spirited ring to It unless one or the other of the distinguished broth ers were there. His zeal was Intense. During his labors he made hosts of friends and every one refers to pun lnmiiiariy as John Evans. Only last September he paid a visit to Scranton and thousands of people henid him preach at the First Welsh Haptlst church. His death will be a surprise not only because he was not known to be 111, but for the reason that l!ev. Fred Evans, his dis tinguished brother, Is 'suffering from a fatal malady In Wales and the an nouncement of his death is dally ex pected. The deceased Is survived by his wife, three daughters, Mrs. Hoxle,, of Hrook lyn; May and Esther Evans, and one son, Henjninin Hughes Evans. A pic ture of Mr. Evans, as he appeared In earlier years, Is herewith presented. Henjamln Hughes, fother-in-lnw of me oeceaseo, mis inu recently recov ered from painful Injuries received by the runaway of his horse. Hecnuse of Mr. Hughes' misfortune no telegram from his relatives at Westeily telling of the demise was received by him and it wns several hours afterward that ho first heard of it fiom his daugh ter, Mrs. Hynon. Fortunately he has recovered from his injuries us to be able to uttend the funeral. - URAHAM WAS MIXED. Thought e Lived 011 Piatt Place. but He Didn't. John flrahnm, ;!0 years old, of the South Side, was so completely over come with bad liquor at II o'clock yes terday morning as to mnke several at tempts to enter houses In Piatt Place on the assumption that his home was somewhere In that vicinity. Graham had the neighborhood nstlr at !! o'clock In the morning. Some one called for police aid, and Graham, who was hatless and coatless, was run In. He was trying to force an entrance tu Mr. Willis" house when arrested. A $5 note settled his case In police coutt. - . --. HE SPOKE AH0UT SNAILS. Address of Charles llclbre the V, l.eroy Wheeler W. C. A. The lecture on "Snails" given last evening at Young Women's Christian association by Charles Leroy Wheeler, of this city, wns one of the most In structive ever delivered before the as sociation. The Inclement weather caitKed 11 small attendance but those who were present thoroughly enjoyed Mr. Wheeler's talk. He exhibited over eighty specimens of snails and In his discussion Mr. Wheeler showed a remarkable knowl edge of the technical part of his sub ject mutter. The lecttiru was under the "i! 7 direction of the educational.' depart ment. QUORUM WAS NOT PRESENT. No .Meeting of the Iloutil of Asso ciated dimities Last Night, Theie was 110 meeting of the Unnrd of Associated Charities last evening owing to the absence of a iiuorum. .1. It. Cohen hnuded over to the nssistntU Measurer, 11. J. Phillips, the sum of $11.10, the amount collected from the charity box receittly placed In the rooms of the Kxcelslur Social club. Mrs. Duggnn, who was present, :'e sented the letter from I'Vederlck Webb, which Is noted In another column. The next meeting will bo held two weeks hence. The matter of holding but one meeting a month was favorably dis cussed lust evening, and the next meeting may work the change. WEBB'S PATHETIC LETTER Says His Wife Had Him Committed to County Jail to Q:t Him Out of the Way. Mrs. Duggan, agent for the Hoard of Associated Charities, has received 11 letter from an liunuto of the county jail which Is a pathetic appeal for re lease on the grounds of 1111 unjust Im prisonment. The prisoner Is Fredeilck Webb,, whose home was In Olyphant, and he was Incaieerated on January 1 to await trial for wife desertion. In his letter to Mrs. Duggan the pris oner says that he Is in Jail for the ren fc.011 that his wife wanted to get him out of the way "so that she can run around with other men." Webb says that he left home for live nlghts'ln succession, on this was based the charge of deser tion. The reason that he left home, however, said Mr. Webb, was because bis wife thieateued to poison him. The letter goes on to say that Mrs. Webb is a frequenter of several hotels In this city, the names of which he mentions In his letter. He fears that his 12-year-old daughter will be "led astray" by the mother's actions and he begs to be released so that he muy care for her and his two other children. He says that he has always support ed his iamlly and the store book will show that his wife got $"0 or $35 worth of goods every mouth for years past. He prays that Mrs. Duggan will take his case befoie the court so that he may be released. He also asks for the arrest of bin wife. The letter closes with diiectlons where Mrs. Duggan can llnd his wife In Olyphant, and it is signed "Fredeilck Webb." The letter was sent to Mrs. Duggan yesteidny and was read last night In the poor board rooms, where a few members of the Hoard of Associated Charities, though not enough to make n quorum, met In an ex-olllcio way. 13. J. Lynett read the letter. Mrs. Duggan was advised to secure a writ of habeas corpus and secure Webb's Immediate release. ART LOAN EXHIBITION. Will Open Tonight in the Hoard of Trade lluilding. The art loan exhibit that was to have opened yesterday in tlie board of trade building will not be open until this evening. It is to be conducted for the benefit of the Green Hldge library. John lirainard. a young artist of this city, who has attained a standing of no little note, Is assisting In the man agement of the exhibit. About seventy pictures in water or oil were hung during yesterday. There has been, too, a large number of tapes tries and curios delivered, and they will be arranged today. The committee which Is arranging the exhibit has been at work but a comparatively brief time and has not had an opportunity to solicit loans from many persons whose names had been suggested. The management will feel grateful for loans of paintings, curios and tapestries from persons who have not been communicated with. A 2r-oent admission to the exhibit will be charged. The display Is lo cated In the la rue vacant store room on the ground lloor of the building. The walls have been covered with a suitable background and scores of In candescent lights have been put In place, so that a proper light Is Insured. PATRICK CASEY INJURED. Tell from the K. and V. V.

ASPHALT QUESTION IS ALL IN A MUSS Select Council Committee Smothered In Arfiiimeiils. INSIDE DEAL OUT OP THE UA(1 Neither the limber Nor the Columbia Company Cuiltluss if Their Agents Are to lie Hcllovcd--('oiniiilttcc .Hot tlio Agents anil Property Owners, but Unit No Opportunity for l)ollbonitlon--.Meellui,' Tomor row livening. Last night's meeting of the pavement committee of select council, attended by a large number of property owners, developed that the Harbor company and Dunn Hros. are determined to de feat the effort to award to the Colum bia Construction company, of Syracuse, the contract for paving Mulberry street. It was the liveliest of the many meetings of various kinds on the pave ment question. The charge wns openly made by P. J. Quliilan, the Columbia agent, that he had seen the contract papers between the limber company and Dunn Hros. whereby the foimer was to have bid 2 cents per square yuid lower on the Mulbeiry eunliuct, und that Dunn Pros, were tu receive a similar advan tage In the next subsequent contract. Mr. (Julnlan said that he would make ulllduvit to his statement If necessury. .Mr. Hock, ol New York city, general agent of the Harber company, retal iated by exclaiming In an aside which was not heard by all In the room, "Yes, and your attorney tried to make the same kind of un arrangement with us, too." These sub-rosa deals, however, were overlooked by the com mittee and property owners. It was not cared who did the work or how, as long as It was according to contiact and speclllcatlons; at least the little digs of the rival agents caused no dis cussion. MANLEY WANTED TO ADJOUUN. The meeting was held In select coun cil chambers. Mr. Wagner, chairman uf the committee, pieslded. The other members ptesent were Messrs. Thomas, Lansing, Munley and Itoche. Mr. Mau ley urged an adjournment because City Engineer Phillips was not present, common council's award having been referred to the committee "In conjunc tion with the city engineer." Mr. Mauley's wish was quickly negatived. Others present were ex-City Sollcltur I. H. Hums, who appeared as tlie rep lesentatlve of Dunn Hros.: Thomas Dunn, Select Councllmcn Fellows and Chittenden, Common Councilman Kel ler, Carl McKlnney und Robert Reeves, the Harber local agents; M. II. Dale, who has hnd a llnanclal Interest In much of the Dunn Hros'. contracting, and Messrs. G. A. .Tessup, 11. Moses, I!, E. Leonard, J. W. Garnoy, P. W. Stokes and a number of other citizens. When the session opened Mr. Hums nddiessed the committee in the inter est of Dunn Hros, He remarked that a year ago Dunn Hros. bid for paving Mom 00 avenue on speclllcatlons Iden tical with those of Mulberry street bad been accepted. The work was stopped, nevertheless, because land asphalt was being laid. In that Instance the city had established a precedent and created the Impression among bidders that land as phalt would not be permitted. Dunn Hros had In consequence submitted only a lake asphalt bid In the present case. Mr. Htirns argued further that there was the possibility that the laying of land asphalt might, be prevented In a legal action. This would be because the speclllcatlons provided for asphalt "equally as suitable" as pitch lake as phalt Instead of providing for either land or lake variety. ATTORNEY STOKES CRITICISED. Attorney Stokes, for the property owners, sought to criticise Mr. Hums for anpenring In the Interest of Dunn Hros. after having represented them a year ago. when they occupied much the same position us does the Colum bia company now. Mr. Stokes then re hearsed the wishes of the owners of abutting property for the cheaper pavement. Then began the real pyrotechnic dis play of the good and bad .qualities of lake and land asphalt accoullng to the statements of Mr. Rock and Mr. Qulii lan. Mr. Ruck began It and Mr. (Juln lan finished It, the former occupying almost an hour und the latter con suming nearly as much time rehears ing the quullttes of the two ;irodticts. Their arguments were nothing new and weie about the same as have been heatd so frequently ut the city hall durlnc the last year. Hardly any emphatic statement of an unusual character made by either asrent failed to receive a denial from the other and a volume of proof In support of his claim. As an example, Mr. Rock asserted that the "pockets" or holes which re mained after the land asphalt had been removed from them, did not re fill with asphalt ninterlnl, thus mov ing that land asphalt was a "dead" deposit. Mr..Qulnlan emphatically de nied this, saying the "pockets" gradu ally lefllled with asphalt deposit from L.-low, and read a statement In con- llrmution, a statement made bv an ! nsphult (Xpert. Mr. Rmk contended ' that the author of tlie statement had ul"ci- udinlaed bis error. Mr. Rock read a lake nsphult nlll SAWYER'S IB SPURC on Tomorrow, Friday and Saturday.

' ''I I00 vWiSID Within the past year, among the thousands uf hearty testimonials to the wonderful curative powers of Palne's celery compound Hint have been received by Wells, Richardson ft company among the thousands of grateful letters received from every state and town In the country, there have come no less than six henrtv In dorsements from members of the na tional house of representatives. All were willing that their experi ence should be published, believing rightly that they might thus do rood to others. In these columns have already been published, the letters received from Congressmen Meredith, Hell, Grout and Powers. Now comes a letter from Congress man Robert Xelll, of Arkansas, ns fol lows: "My home Is at Hatesvllle, Ark. Dur ing the lest spring and summer my eldest daughter, then 17 years of age, was In very poor health, suffeiTng fiom general debility, nervous prostration and lioqueut slight fevers. She had the best medical attention, but appar ently with little beuellt. Tn the latter part of September last, while still fee lile she begnn the use of Palne's celery coir.pound. nnl improved in health continuously. In three months she had fully recovered, and Is now In perfect health. I am bound to think the rem- davit sworn to by some city ofllclal on Feb. '.). and Mr. Qulnlan stated that the same party had exuressed himself 'ex actly opposite In the February number of Municipal Engineering. And so the debate continued. In answer to a question from Mr. Stokes, Mr. Rock admitted that Scran ton had some poor lake asphalt pave ments. They were laid, however, ninny years ago by an Inexperienced local firm. Methods had. Improved since then and the lake asphalt pavements recently laid were sjood ones. Mr. Leonard, In a brief address, re marked that from a business stand point the lowest bid wns the one to be accented, admitting even that Its ma terial and workmanship on the sur face of the pavement would be the Poorer Tf each company was bound to furnish an equally substantial con crete base. If the Columbia company's asphalt work was useless, the bond and the difference In cost would be in ore than sufllclent to pay for having the work done over again. The committee adjoin ned .to meet to morrow night at 7.",0 o'clock. Select council will meet Friday night, when will be afforded, maybe, the last ou portunlty for awarding the contract In the old councils and before reor ganization. The committee has had no chance to voice Its Individual opinions. August Robinson, who icully bid for the Dunn Hros., Is out of the race, as his bid was not in accordance with the conditions under which the bids were to be received. RUN DOWN BY A TRAIN. Vet Hemurd Vi bun Was Only Slightly Injured. Hernard 1'rban, of the North Hnd, was struck by a fast moving train at U o'clock yesterday morning, and the only Inurles he received weie u few slleht biulscB about the shoulders uiul back.

To postpone at such a vital time as this regulating the nerves and purify ing theb lood Is a serious mistake. Men und women distressed by nervous tioublcs or the effects of Impure blood cannot afford now to lose a day before taking advantage of Palne's celery compound. Mi order to avoid disappointment ac cept nothing but Palne's celery com pound. A clerk who tries to sell some thing else than what people ask for Is evidently not disinterested. He has an eye to profits inoie than to the good uf customers. There can be no substitute for Palne's celery compound. This has been shown time and time again In cases where pernona, too eas ily led, have carried home .something besides Palne's celery compound, and have failed to get tho decided benefit they had hoped for. The strongest Indorsement ever re ceived for this great spring lumedy and no remedy ever compared with Palne's celery comoound In the char acter and the number of the witnesses to Its einclency the strongest Indorse ment It ever received did not overes timate or exaggerate In the least Its unitvnlled power of making people well. t& fli Bl O H !
