The school board case was set down rpeclally for argument yesterday morn ing, but Judge Archbald declined to hear It, saying that It should come up at argument court when it can be giv en the consideration Its Importance deserves. Mr. Burns, attorney for John Jer myn. relator In the quo warranto pro ceedings, pressed for a hearing, but Judge Archbald refused to move from the position he hud taken. This means that there will be no lo cal decision In the case before election, It makes little difference, however, as the matter will go to the supremo court In any event. DR. RCOSDALti MAS REblONED.

S.CIO Ward appropriations JM.MM Three mountain roads !KM Total ,Ko Accompanying the estimate Mr. Dunning has submitted a typewritten explanation of the many Items. Of repairs to bridges and culverts he says that the cost Is Increasing yearly nnd that It will be absolutely necessary to replank the Lackawanna avenue, South Washington avenue, Carbon street, and gas house bridges tho latter one-half; thut almost an en tirely new bridge must be built over Stafford Meadow brook on South Washington avenue, and that exten sive repairs are needed on tho East Market street und Dodgetown bridges. CLEANING (PAVEMENTS. The 1S37 appropriation of $1,000 for cleaning stono and brick pave, says Mr. Dunning, was $1,000 less than the 18&C appropriation, with 14 more blocks to clean. To clean the 47 blocks of brick, stone block and cobble pave he estimates the need ot $3,100 and one foreman, 20 men and three teams working VI hours a day for ten months, not considering the proposed North Main avenue brick pavement. In reference to clennlnsr asphalt pavement he cites the 121 blocks of that material, 1G more than In 1S96. For cleaning asphalt and other pave ments the department had 20 per cent lcs3 money In 1S97 than In l&'JG. To clean the asphalt "with any degree of respectability" the commissioner Kays he needs: Two flushing gangs, each to contain one foreman, nine men nnd one team working 20 days per month for C months, $J,800; a foreman, 18 rweepera, 2 teams, same period, $3,030; foreman, 20 sweepers nnd two teams for the other G months, $4,830; supplies, $300. After stating that the appropriation asked would not bo suf ficient for first-class results he cites Buffalo as "the- Illustration. That city contains one section, 14 mles of paved streets, on which 61 men aro employed full time for 25 days each month. At J1.K0 per day the cost In Buffalo shows a startling comparison to that Involved In the cleaning of the 1G miles of pave In Scranton. It requires, he continues, nn addi tional sewer gang to remove extra dirt from the basins as a result of the flushing 120 days in the year. Tho gang would cost $10 per day or $1,200 per season. There will be a shortage 01 ?i,uou on this item this year.. SHORTAGE PREDICTED. A shortage of $S0O is predicted in the appropriation for repairs to sewers and drains. It would have been great er If it had followed the- "very pressing resolution" of councils to repair the Bromley avenue sewer. The approp riation should be large enough to cov er emergencies duo to tlio unsettled condition of the surface in many parts of the city. He urges Immediate ac tion In building new catch basins and laying surface drains to dispose of the flood of water which pours off the hill after heavy storms. Mr. Dunning admits the asphalt re pair question to be a staggerer. He says tho Lackawanna and Washing ton avenue pavements should be entire ly re-surfaced as they are In many places bo bad as to render repair al most Impossible. Ho mentions $10, 000 us the amount of money needed and leaves the responsibility with coun cils If the money isn't forthcoming. If a new bridge isn't built over the Lackawanna river at the driving park ho predicts that the city will have to pay heavy damages. For repairing the mile and a half of Ablngton turnplko within tho city lim its Mr. Dunlng Itemzes the $3,640 needed under the present system and suggests that councils investigate tho matter of building a double-track steel railway such as Is recommended by General Roy Stone, a model of which he has furnished Mr. Dunning. It can bo built for $2,000 per mile, slhgle track. ,. ... O'RCIIXY COUNCIL WON. Demonstrated That Woman's Sul irngo Is llntlroly Desirable. The fourth of the series of debates among the local councils of tho Young Men's Institute took place at St. Thomas' college hall, last night. The contestants were the John Bovlo O'Reilly council of tho central cltv and the Marquette council of Provi dence. P. W. Gallagher, Thomas J. Murphy, nnd P. H. OUleran represented the John Boyle O'Reilly council. Joseph Evuns, Jamett McCarthy and John Hlg glns were the Marquette's champions.

Duggan nnd City Solicitor M. A. McGIr.lev were the judges. Out) of a possible 300 points they adjudged that tho winners had scored 1G5 and tho losers 115. Previous to tho debate there was a llteiary and musical programme ren dered by members of the O'Reilly council. James Marlon and Bart Leo nard guve recitations; Peter McLaugh lin rendered a piano solo; Frank O'Hnra gave a violin solo with piano accompaniment by Mr. Langfeld.

Tut Iff 3w4:vsSt2jS$W The youngest nnd most bustling city I in the United States Founded last April, Lincoln boasts a sewerage system, electric lights, ma cadamized roads, trolley cars, telephone franchise and a water plant. From a hamlet to a town to a city, In this Incredibly short time, Lincoln has grown with the wonderful pro gresslvcncss looked for only In the West a splendid example of the In domitable pertinacity of one strong man. Like most forceful men, Mayor Drake must see results before giving his ap proval; but when convinced he speaks out his mind without fear or favor of any one. There is no hesitation among Mayor Drake's friends in saying that Paine's celery compound has been of the ut most help in enabling him to do a prodigious amount of work, and to get rid of that Insomnia that ut one time resulted from every prolonged effort. Mayor Drake himself says: Lincoln, Middlesex Co., N. .T.. Oct. SO, 1S97. Wells, Richardson & Co., Gentlemen I have been getting Paine's celery compound from our local druggist. After sixteen hours' woik each day, I sieep eight hours each night like a baby, and attribute much of the der entertained with two well-suna bass solos. While awaiting the judges decision John J. Murphy, president ofO'Rellly council, and chairman of the" evening made a neat speech testifying the coun cil's appreciation of the work Rev. F. P. McNally has done to further the Inter-council debates nnd literary study In general In Young Men's Institute cir cles. He also made the pleasing an nouncement that despite Rev. Father McNally's removal to Georgetown he would continue to take nn active inter est In the debates and be present at each of them if possible. There -was a very large attendance and the applause throughout was of a very liberal and encouraging nature. HAD A1ANY CONFERENCES. Domourntic City Candidates Unnblo to Transact Much Business.

Clet your dinner toduy at White's New Cafe, 247 Wyoming nvenue. strengthening of my nerves to Paine's celery compound. Yours tuily, SILAS D. DRAKE. Nothing demoralizes tho health sooner or more completely than even tho oc casional loss of sleep. To start a new day with the brain unrefreshed Is like trying to keep a worn-out horse up to his work with the whip Instead of by feeding. The Incessant brain activity Is as If the skull were laid bare and the surface of the brain were struck lightly every few seconds and without a sign of a "let up." Thus sleeplessness imperceptibly, but no less surely, destroys the brain cells that are the sources of mental power and the health of every organ of the body. Paine's celery compound gets the nervous system out of this dangerous rut of sleeplessness. It supplies nour ishment to the nervous tissues faster than they are worn out, und does not let the nutrition of these delicate parts get low enough to bring on Insomnia. One of the earliest evidences of the tlnal success of Paine's celery compound In curing debility, nervousness, sleep lessness and derangements of liver and kidneys Is the increased appetite, the clearer skin, and that Indescribable precursor ot health, a feeling of "well being" that takes tho place of the tired, languid, melancholy condition. nun).
