We want to talk about your spring overcoat.
If you would follow fashion closely, cliug to us.
Few stores even pretend to carry the assortment
we show. For reputation's sake we must sell
them at the very lowest prices. Not the lowest
for ANY overc'oat. But easily the lowest for such
a one. We clinch the argument when we show
you this coat. Made of the popular Covert cloth.
And well made. Somehow these have the right
"hang" to them. They don't wrinkle across the
back. Nor around the shoulders. Nor is there
any wrinkle in your forehead when you hear the
price,
$8.00.
,It would be, a shame not to mention the line
of spring suits we are showing. But since we
haven't space to speak of all today, we ask you to
step in when you're down and see what Scranton's
foremost clothiers have to show in garb for spring.

For tho past few months tho politicians
of the South and Southwest districts of

lating for some good material to p'aee
before tho next county convention. Nu
merous names aro mentioned by both
Democrats and Republicans, but from all
appearances the strongest and most suit
able Is that of Griffith T. Davis, of Green
wood, who is spoken of as a candidate
for prothonotary. Mr. Davis Is one of
tho leading members of the Greenwood
Republican club, and although young In
years his knowledge, of the great Ameri
ca's game of politics Is conclusive evi
dence that he Is well qualified to handle
tho reins of a county berth. The selec
tion would, without doubt, meet with the
hearty approval of each and every citi
zens In the lower portion of the county
which has not been recognized for a
number of years.

the Delaware and Hudson depot at
MInooka and carted to some secluded
spot where tho thieves could enjoy them
selves to their hearts' content, while the
driver went down In his own wallet to
settle for the loss. This recalls the
amusing robbery of a few years ago
when a gang entered a speak-easy and
disguised as whto caps hauled three bar
rels out of tho cellar and took them donn
In to tho dark recesses of the old aban
doned Stafford shaft which was In op
eration at tho time. Tho much-covet,ed
beverage was stored In tho old working
tnd some of the gang did not catch sight
of their respective abodes for a number
of weeks until the supply was complttely
exhausted.

THAT NEW YORK TRIP.
It is Not Known Whether tho Gunrd
Will Go or Not.
The officers of the Thirteenth regi
ment are entirely In the dark an to the
probability of going ito New York city
on April 27. Colonel Coursen has made
all necessary regimental arrangements
0JU9h as transportation, etc., but Adju
tant General Stewart has been unable
to ascertain definitely what provisions,
if any, for quarters would be made by
the executive commltteo in New York
city.
Lieutenant Richardson, of the adju
tant general's department, is now In
New York, according to advices re
ceived hero from Harrisbunr, and will
return from his mission today, when
word will probably be sent here ns to
the result. At division headquarters
and In nearly the regiments the de
sire to participate )n the Grant dedi
cation programme Is pronounced and
ardent, but the Thirteenth and other
regiments do not care topay for quar
ters, nor do they favor making the
round trip and undergoing the fatigues
of the parade In ono day.
Colonel Coursen was not in the city
last night. From Lieutenant Colonel
Mattes it was learned that General
Gobln, commanding the Third brigade,
had written an unofllclal letter con
taining the substance of what Is re
lated in the foregoing. General Gobln
Is anxious that the Pennsylvania guard
should not only go to New York, but
should take part In the Washington
monument dedication in Philadelphia
next month.
MR. HAWLEY'S GAS WELL
His Prospectors itlnke n Strllio in
Wyoming County.
A special dispatch in tho Philadel
phia Press from Tunkhannock says:
A narty of Scranton capitalists who
have been drilling at Lovelton, this
county, struck a good flow of gas last
night at a depth of S00 feet. Tho snme
territory was tested about eighteen
years ago, and gas sufficient to bo of
considerable value was found. The gas
vein was cut off, however, tho parties
devoting their searching to oil.
Among those Interested In tho enter
prise nro Congressman Connell, of Scran
ton and Charles L. Ilnwley. They havo
leased thousands of acres in tho south
ern end of Bradford county and if gas Is
found in payingt quantities, will be
piped to Scranton and used as fuel for
the vast iron and steel Industries in that
city as well as for private ie,.
Mr. Connell Is In no way connected
with the enterprise. He so stated to a
Tribune reporter yesterday.
Mr. Hnwley when usked about the
matter was very anxious to know the
full contents of the dispatch which ap
pears In the foregoing. He would not,
however, answer any of the reporter's
questions. He Is known to be Inter
ested In a prospecting enterprise In
Wyoming county.

RAILWAY NOTES.
Colonel Frank N. Barksdale, the editor-in-chief

Tho Lackawanna has for some tlmo
past furnished Us passengers with freo
transportation and free baggage transfer
on tho Elmlra and Horseheads strcot car
line, between Its station and that of the

Injured tho passenger business of that

REORGANIZATION OF
THE TWO COUNCILS
Concluded from Pago 3.
way system of Scranton has boon under
tho present management, large sums of
money havo been extended each year to
improve the system, and no fair minded
man will deny that there has been givat
improvement. xnero is room for ftlii
further Improvement, and it Is the pur
pose of our company to expend large
sums of money additional with the Ideu
of extending and perfecting the system
within a reasonable length of tlmo and
making it one of the best In the country.
A reduction in fares would naturally re
sult In stopping all such expenditures for
extensions and Improvements, and. In
addition would almost surely result In a
reduction of wages to employes, which Is
tho only way that tho expense of opera
tion could be reduced to meet the reduc
tion In recolpts duo to lower fares. The
result, therefore, would bo a loss to tho
development and best Interests of the
city, as well a to tho company and its
employes. Tho experiment has been tried
in ono or two cities of this country, but
never successfully, and statistics Bhow
that there Is no country In the world
whero street railroad fares are as cheap
or tho service as ftlclnnt nnd ovtunsivn
as in this country.
In view of all tho conditions and rea
sons given above, we cannot concede the
lequcst of tho petitioners, nnd we bellevo
that, after thorough investigation, you
will seo the Justice of our position.
Yours very truly.

THE CITY'S HEALTH.
While tho city has been by comparison
with other cities remarkably freo from
anything approaching epidemics, still
there has been at times minor diseases
which have been so wide-spread as to
compel Investigation by the health au
thorities. Tho result of Mips. invpsHn-.i.
tions has been to emphasize the need for
better sanitary regulations than those
which exist In certain localities. As a
step toward better and mora modrrn s.n.
itation I would suggest a system of dally
garbagv collection by closed metal carts.
This, whllo It might make necessary an
Increase in the crematory nnd other ap
propriations would, I feel sure, more than
pay for itself in the lessened liability of
the residents of Scranton to the ravages
of disease.
THE CITY'S POOR.
I would then call to your attention the
propriety of making appropriation for
those who by reason of the business de
pression, advanced age, ill health, or
from any other cause, have been thrown
out of employment. I recommend In n y
Inaugural message that an experiment
with the plan of municipal farms which
has worked so well In Detroit, Buffalo,
and other cities might demonstrate tho
wisdom of its adoption here. I still hold
to that opinion and now reiterate my
former suggestion. I am sure that tlm
uso of much good land lying on the out
skirts of the city would be donated for
such a purpose, and I am also curtain
that seed and tho necessary tools would
be provided in plenty if councils took the
Initiative. If anything Is to be dona in
this matter during this year, It must be
dono at once.
In conclusion, I desire to return thanks
for all courtesies which I have experi
enced during tho first year of my admin
istration. If I have made mistakes they
havo not been of tho heart. It 13 my
highest ambition to servo this city well
and to administer tho affairs of my office
honestly. Impartially and effectively. To
do this It Is necessary to obtain vour un
selfish cooperation, and It Is this which L
asic irom you uuring tne coming year.
Without It, much good that might havo
been accomplished will remain undone.
With it, the citizens of Scranton will bo
protected and tho best interests of all
will bo conserved.
