POST OFFICE NOTES.
Two new cancelling and stamping ma
chines have been put In at the postoi'
hce. They are the latest and most im
proved tliliiK In that line mid are manu
factured by tin) American Postal .Ma
chines company of Huston. Vhelr tin
piovement over the old sljle maehin- is
In their labor saving finalities. In umiis
the old machine It was necessary to
"face" the letters and thru feed them to
the machine. With the new inaclnu. mw
motion does all the work. The letters as
picked mi from the collection box,-., are
lumped in a pile on tne assorting t.th: .
Instead ot nicking up each one as im--merb
and forming it in i: row, the lctu r
Is now dropped Into the maw of the mi
chine lu proper l o.sltlon and the machine
dues the rest. In this way the letter Is
handled only once Instead of twice as for
merly. When It is stated that ll takes as
long to straighten out letters us It lor
merly required to stamp them by hand
tho efficiency of the new machines over
the old style Is easy to see.
A new Issue of postal cards Is an
noiinced In this month's postal Kiinh .
They are in four styles and are much Hi
same us the prevent cards, Hie principal
difference being that each style Is made
..lightly smaller than tho old card whl'h
It Is to siioplani. Tho one cent .I'.ixf.'j
ard has Jefferson's portrait on the stamp
and 'lie smaller one cent card which will
be otie-slxtcentli each way less than 2x1
Is adorned with e. likeness of John Ad

The vote nnnntinced by the vigilance
committee Inst night gives Jayne n ma
jority of three. Jacobs, however, claims
that there weic IrregularltUn In the
count, and thnt when these nre set
strnK'ht he will hnve u majority of one.
The alleged Irregularities occurred In
th First district, nnd consisted in the
vigilance committee, refusing to record
four "Jacobs" ballots, which hntl "Thir

nnmes of the Second district villgnnce
coinmlttee and election olllcers printed

The Jacobs! mm made a vigorous pro
test against the action, but the vigil

were I'. valid and could tint he Induced
to count them. After a long wrangle,
howex r. the disputed ballots were
placed In the box with the others for
preservation.

Another vote which the Jncobs men

William Tripp In the First district. It
was claimed that Tripp lives In Clark's

IT'S JfiRSEV CITV NOW.
New York Sun Prints nil Dasleru
1,1'iictio story.
That the EasteiAi Hase Hall league is
unxious to secure either Newark or
Jetney City as the oJEhth club instead
of Scrnnton becotnes trior apparent
every day. It was learned yesterday
that within the past two weeks curtain
persons Identliled with baseball at Jer
sey city have approached President
Frcedmuu, of the New York club,
asking him to nlvo his consent to the
placing of mi l'nstrn League team In
that city. It Is even hlntrd that they
offered ti $3,000 bonus In cash In re
turn for the privilege, but that the of
fer was refused. Mr. Freedmnn suld
yesterday that he had been nsked to
permit the admlFslon of Jersey City to
the Eastern league, under tho cele
brated "llve-mllr" territory agreement,
but had been unable to sec his way
clear to do so. He did not deny that
accompanying the request was a flnun
clnl offer of the above llgure.
A minor leasue club at Jeiney City
would be a paying venture, so the pro
moters sny, especially as It would bo
possible to play Sunday ball at home.
With similar games at Newark, the lat
ter city providing an Eastern lengue
franchise could be obtained, would be
a valuable addition to the circuit. In
spite of the assertion of 'President ll.ir
tow, of the Atlantic league, that New
ark will not leave his organization,
there Is ground for the belief that Tom
HurtiM will Join the Eastern league If
lit receives a ehunee. If thai league
could supplant Wllkcs-lStirre and
Scrnnton with Newark and Jersey City,
the circuit would be placed upon u re
markably sound paying basis. New

FAIR AT GREEN RIDQE.
Object is to ltnltto Fund With Which
to Hulld ii Convent.
Thursday evening a fair will open In
St. Paul's church hall on Penn avenue,
Oreen Itldse, the object of which Is to
raise money to erect a convent. The
building now used Is on Atnrlon street
near Snnderson avenue and is very
Inconvenient for the Sisters because

havi charge. lot has been " iiu'ed
adjoining the school nnd on this It Is
proposed to erect a convent as soon
as stilllclent funds to do It nre obtained.
With a view to assisting In securlnc
funds to i red a suitable home for these
noble women who devote their lives to
religion and education, a committee of
the women and men of St. Paul's con
gregation have nrianged the fair which
opens tomotrow night, Christmas

CITY CONVENTION ON JAN. 11.
Object of it i to N"minntc Candi
dates For Hcliool Directors.
In response to a call Issued by ex
Sheiiff A. Ii. Stevens, chairman of the
Hepubllcnn city committee, a number
of the members of that committee
gathered lutst night In the rooms of the
Central Hepubllcan club and decided
to hold a city convention on Jan. 11
to nominate six candidates for school
directors. These candidates will be
nominated from the city at large. The
primaries will be held on Jan. 8. The
otlicers of the city committee will se
lect a place for holding the convention.
The committee last night considered
the matter carefully and came to tho
conclusion that since there Is a possi
bility that the local courts will de
clare the present board of control Ille
gal steps should be taken so that a
ticket may be nominated lu time in
case It becomes necessary for the city
to elect a board of six.
In the event of such a board having
chntge of the affairs of the school dis
trict of Its membeis will be chos-n
secretary and another treasurer.

A HOLLY WEDDING.
Eiillinnt Event ut the Green Kidgc
Presbyterian liurcli Lust Mgli.
A holly wedding Is an appropriate
and terse description of the beautiful
ceremony which last evening united In
the holy bonds of wedlock Arthur
Dunn, of Marlon street, and Miss
Augusta Pratt Fordham, daughter of
Dr. and Mrs. J. U Fordham, of 15::4
Cnpouse avenue.
It was a ceremony as pretty and
picturesque as Its novel characteristic
was opportune. A congregation that
filled the Green Ridge Presbyterian
church and one that was representa
tive of the city's most prominent fam
ilies witnessed the nuptials. The olflcl
ntfng clergyman was Rev. John Dunn,
of the Second Presbyterian church, a
brother of the groom.
Harry Miner, of Norfolk. Va was
best man nnd Miss Sarah Fordham,
sister of the bride, was maid of honor.
The ushers were Lucius Kennedy,
Scraiiton; Nicholas Stahl, Princeton;
Louis Robertson, Puninore; Walter
Fordham, brother of the bride; Charles
Evans, of Townnda, and Alan Clap
hane, of Washington, D. C. The brides
maids were Miss Anna Wells, Scran
ton: Miss- Hiisbln, of Huston: Miss
Frances Pratt, Scrnnton: Slips Flo
rence Wllllnms. Hnltimore: Miss Marlon
Crane, Cnrbondak; Miss Margaret
Weed, Havanna, N. Y., and Miss Ford
ham, sister of the bride.
The processions and grouping at tho
chancel were verv pretty sights. Holly
was the decoration of the chancel. Tho
white-gowned maids each carried a
branch of holly and the ushers wore
a sprig of It for a boutonnlere. Three
of the maids wore sashes of red and
white anil the remaining three wore
green and white, colors typical of the
all-pievndliiR favor.
The bilde did not enter Into the novel
departure. Her gown of cream-white
was a beautiful creation In silk and
mouselln do soi. She wore a tulle
veil, caught up with diamonds, and
also wore diamonds at the throat. Her
bouquet was of white rose.s. The maid
of honor's costume was distinguished
from those ot the bridesmaids by Its
being figured silk, while the brides
mnlds' were plain white, with the
green and white or red and white relief
before referred to.
Holly also formed the main featute
of the decorations of the brlde'.s home,
where a brilliant reception was held,
following the ceremony. The newiy
marrled couple left at midnight for a
southern trip.
The groom Is a prominent young
member of the Lackawanna bar. His
bride Is a charming young lady and a
leader In Green Ridge society. The
marriage unites two of the most promi
nent families of the North End.
