WAR ON TRADING STAMPS.
Wilmington Merchants to Organize
Tor the llnttlc.
Wilmington, Del., Dec. 13. Some of
the leading merchants of Wilmington
propose to organize a Merchants' Ex
change to fight the trading stamps
scheme. It Is proposed to give cus
tomers who buy from merchants In the
Exchange a f per cent, discount.
United States District Attorney Van
degrlft says he can see nothing In the
United States statutes to prevent the
giving of stamps, and Deputy Attor
ney Gfneral Cooper says the trading
Ktamp business Is not a violation of
the laws of the state, notwithstanding
the decision of the district court nt
Washington, D. C. that they arc Il
legal. ULTIMATUM TO POWERS.
Must Find a Purchaser for Scranlon
Franchise by Jan I or Local
Mcu Will Gel II.
The owners of the Scranton base balj
club have formally and definitely noti
fied P. T. Powers, president of the
Eastern league, that unless ho finds a
purchaser for the club before Jan. 1,
the franchise will be retained In this
city.
At the recent meeting of the league
In New York city the owners author
ized President Powers to find a pur
chaser, hut did not designate any time
limit. Now that tho Scranton stock
company promoters seem assured of
success and although their purchase
price would be only $2.r,00, consider
ably Ie.s than the figure named to
President Powers, the owners prefer
selling out at home and selling quickly.
According to The Tribune'' Informa
tion, which may be relied upon as cor
rect, the leaders of the stock company
plan are ready to secure subscribers
beginning Jan. 1, provided that the
franchise Is not sold through President
Powers at that time. Following Is the
stock company arrangement:
A hundred shares of stock arc to be
sold at $50 each to secure a capital of
$5,000. Of this sum $2.S00 Is to be paid
for the franchise, players, etc., and
this will leave an equal sum for a work
ing capital with which to start tho
season. Subscriptions will bo duo as
follows: L'j per cent., Jan. 3; 23 per
cent., Feb. 1: no per cent., Mnieh 1.
There will be an executive committee
of three who will assume nil the active
and detailed work of management.
This committee will bo the president
and treasurer, vice-president and sec
retary of the association.
The president will have full control
from the beginning to the end of the
season. No passes will be Issued ex
cept to each member of tho commit
tee and to the newspapers. The ofll
cers will be elected by ballot.
It will be seen from the foregoing
that the president, who is to be treas
urer nlso, will be the responsible head
of the association. On account of tho
technical base ball knowledge required
of one in that position, considerable
thought has been given to who shall
be chosen for that position. There is
a common sentiment In favor of Thom
as R. Flrooks of the present associa
tion. He has not promised to ncoept
tho office, Vut II Is Intimated that he
will do so provided only his controlling
hand Is needed. He will have little or
no time to devoto to the active man
ngement of the club, but C. S. Fowler,
who would probably be elected secre
tary, would bo wllllne;, with the vice
president, to assume tho minor duties
under Mr. Brooks' direction.
The present owners realize that for
the sake of peace with the league and
In order to elve Manager Orlilln op
portunity to reorganize the tenm. tho
future of the club should be determined
quickly. As outlined in this article,
tho matter will fie finally settled dur
ing tho first few days In January.
UNSATISFACTORY FIRE HORSES.
Team on Trial by the Crystals Will

Tho tenm of horses that has been

Is not satisfactory and the Joint llro
department committee of councils,
which meets this evening, will prob
ably decide to repot t that the animals
be not accepted by councils. Doth
horses aie sound, but one of them is
too excitable for tire seivlce.
A horso on trial by Century com
pany will be accepted.

SECRET OF HAPPINESS,
In What Does It Consist and
Few Women Ever
Find It,
How
"x
'&$'
This lady Is happy principally be
cause she Is wealthy. It Is said that nil
other women do not enjoy equally
:jond heal'h. Ah! weak, weary women,
tired and broken down, whoso lives
an' made miserable through the blight
ing Influence of female complaints,
why do you suffer? Why allow your
self to become "blue," discouraged nnd
despondent? Why endure tho torture
of backaches, beat lng down pains, ner
vousness nnd other weaknesses caused
by menstrual or womb troubles? There
is help for you nnd f"r all other wom
en who nuffer in this way. Read these
words which were recently written by
one woman who sought and found 10
ll.'f. Mrs. H. P. G. Carnes, one of the best
known ladles of Ilutler, Pa., says: "For
nearly three years I was undei tho doc
tor's car.?, a constant sufferer from fe
male weaknesses In the most aggra
vated form. Medicine did me no good
nnd my suffering was so great that nt
times 1 ft It that death would be a re
lief. At last, a discovery of wh'lch 1
kn w little, was recommended to mo
and f decided to try It. Hefore I had
finished one bottle, I was astonished at
the marvelous chance it made in my
health. It has completely cured me.
I am now feeling perfectly well, am
able to attend to my duties and owe
my restored health wholly to that
grand discovery Warner's Safe Cure.
ThW is only one case among thous
ands in which this great lemedv ha"
been the means of curing the distress
ing ailments peculiar to women. Time
nnd ngalr. It has proved to be unequal
ed for giving quick nnd permanent
relief. No woman who wishes to es
cape misery and suffering tan afford
to be without it. It is a remedy that
never f'jlls, and one that has always
proved to bo woman's best friend.
that Edward Graham held her while
his wife tnpprd hoi face with a list.
On the other hand ' the Grahams
claimed thnt the Turner woman had
no right In their home. Again, the
Turner woman said in rebuttal that she
was after her nsred mother, who was
in the Grahnm house.
Tho Grahams were held under $V0
ball each to appear at v t.
