"Scranton ought to have an asphalt repair plant of its own," said Mayor Bailey as he jolted over the uneven Euiface of Adams avenue In a car riage the other day. "In fact If we arc going to keep our asphalt paved streets Jn any kind of condition wo must have a repair plant. Then as soon as a small hole appeared Jn the pavement anywhere It would be repaired at once. Under the present nnangement little attention Is paid to a break In the pavement until it assumes some pro portions. It Is wonderful how rapidly a small holj In the pavement enlatges. A few weeks after the first symptom of a break appears theie In a hole that will require a square yard of asphalt to fill and the longer Jt re mains without attention the laiger the hole and more expensive to repair It. During the lecent repairs on some of the atteets It wa3 found necessary to replace almost the entire covering so extensive was the patching. I believe it would be a great economy If we could take care of the as-plmlt repair ing ourselves." "David Johnson, one of the old re tired rrlners of this valley, was seen on the streets of town yesterday," says the Wllkes-Barre Record. "His home Is In Ashley, but he has been In Susquehanna for some time on a farm with his brother. Mr. Johnson Is 66 yeurs of age, Is in excellent health and Is quite robust for a man of his age. He returned yesteiday to look after some of his buslncts. for thirty-three yeiup he worked In the mines, and when the Sugar Notch mine disas ter occurred some eighteen years ago, by which sixteen men were entombed, he retired from mining, never to rturn. Just before the fall or cave he and his son Jarres heeded the warning and be ing on the outside of the full they were Saved from being entombed for a week with the others, who finally all escared. It was then that he re solved never to enter tho mines ngaln. His tools are still bulled in tho de bris. Secretary Buckalcw of the Wllkes Barre Yoi-jr Men's Christian assocla tlun, has received a call to become as sistant state iccretary and ho is very favorably considering it. The state tecretary Is S. M. Bard, who was for merly secretary of the Wilkes-Parre atsoilatinn, njid the duties are such that an assistant Is needed, there hav ing" been none for over a year. In case Mr. Buckalew decides to go he will probably leave here tame time in August and his successor will probably be a young man fiom Pittsburg, who has been doing some good work In an association there. Mr. Buckalew has been eecretary of the Wllkes-Barre as sociation for about four years, having previously teen an office assistant, then going to Pittsburg, where he re mained for four years, being then call ed to the association at Wllkes-Barre when Mr. Bard became state secretary.

Some time early Wednesday morn Ins burglars blew open the safe In the office of the T. II. Watts' company on West Lackawanna avenue. Three five-eighth holes were drilled Into the safe and one charge of dynamite was exploded. Chief of Polio Martin Gur rell removed nnother charge, which did not explode. He also found tho third hole which had been drilled. The affair was one of the most dar ing perpetrated In this city for years but the safe resisted the remarkable strain and held Its contents secure. A light is kept burning in the office of the Watts building all night, but tho safe set In the wall projects towards Dockash court. This portion of the hafe, which Is back of It, Is boarded In and is In comparative dark ness. Tho thieves ripped the boards off and drilled a hole three inches deep and five-eighths inch wide into the safe. They filled the hole with giant powder and fired It, but did no serious damage. Then they drilled two holes and filled one of them with dynamite and connected the dynamite with a fuse, at the end of which was a per cussion cap. At this stage of the game they must have been frightened away. The safe contained only $20 and even If the burglars had succeeded In open ing the safo their reward would have been small Chief Gurrell Is of the opinion that the job was the work of Inexperienced cracksmen, probably the same ones who recently visited tho Elmhurst postofflee.

Kingsbury wote nominated. The result was 31 to 10 In favor of Cooper.

Tne non-commissioned officers will bo appointed on that evening. Major Cameron made a short speech to the company as he was about to leave. He said his relations with the old Thirteenth were of the friendliest character, and he hoped for a contin uation of that feeling with the now cuard. He always feels nt home in Scranton. He Is always well treated here, and he had a very enjoyable time on this Inst visit even though the work of mustering was tedious. As he was leaving three cheers were given In his honor, and three cheers were given Colonel Ripple and Captain Raub. Major Cameron and staff will leave at 6 o'clock this morning for Harris-burg-. He will return some day next week to muster In Companies A and B. Twenty-three men were examined nnd mustered in last night, eleven of whom v ere for Company C. The other twelve were about i-venly divided between the two companies yet to be mustered. The major does not know the day he will return, but expects It will be next Wednesday. He hopes when he comes back that the remaining com panies will have their quotas. KILLED BY A FALL. Death of Mrs. Catherine Connell, of Capouse Avenue, by Falling From Porch of Her Home.

Connell occupied the upstairs of the building. She went out to sit down for a brief rest from her house hold duties, and leaned against the railing. From all accounts her weight caused It to give way. Having her elbows resting on tho top rail and leaning face forward her position was one that gave her no chance to save herself In tho fall. The rail was about four teet from the floor. She was 55 years of age, and weighed ISO pounds. Her ase, weight and the hi Ight of the fall combined to make the accident n fatal one. She Is sur vived by a family of seven, all of whom exceut one married daughter, reside in this city. MOTHER WANTS HER CHILD. Mrs. Gertie May White Begins Pro ceedings for Her Child.

Lottie White, of Center street, at tempted suicide yesterday afternoon with an ounce of laudanum. She was attended to by a doctor soon after she swallowed the poison, and consequent ly Is alive. The Lackawanna hospital ambulance was summoned. The, size of the dose she took put a big task on the doctors at the hospital to keep her from going Into a sleep that would end all. The poison was drank about 5 o'clock. It was taken In her room In 321 Center street. Her vomiting created suspi cion among the other women In the house and this suspicion was Increased because she has been despondent since Monday about some news In a letter she received. It was not her first at tempt. Slnco she began her present career the laudanum bottle was raised to her lips twice before for the same purpose, and in both instances she was fortunate enough to have medical tientment promptly. At 7 o'clock in the evening she was out of danger, but not at all over the effect of the drug. It still needed the constant watchfulness of a nurse to prevent her from lapsing Into a slum ber which would end In death, If she were not roused. The woman gave her name as Lottie White when she came to the city not very long ago. She took up her resi dence at 16 .Lackawanna avenue for a while, where she made the acquain tance of Jack Bacon. This was four months ago. Recently ehe changed her address to the house In Center street. She Is a handsome young woman, has long dark hair and dark eyes. Her features are regular, nnd her appear ance and language suggest that she came of a good family. Bacon Is a year or two past twenty-one. This 13 the fiecond woman with whom he was associated who has attempted to kill herself with laudanum. The other was Gertie Baker, who claimed to be his wife. She took a big dose of it as she was waiting for a train In the Dela ware, Lackawanna and Westcin sta tion. She was taken to the hospital and the stomach pump waa used with success. The dose that Lottie took yesterday was large enough to kill four persons. Two teaspoonsful make a fatal dose. There are eight of them In an ounce. SILK MILL FOR PARSONS.

Joseph Madison, of Yatesville Detail From His Company that Came With the Remains from Camp Al ger Acted as the Firing Squad. Organizations Represented. "Pity 'TIs- True." that death Is bad enough but words cannot express the sadness and impresslvcnes3 which surround the death of a soldier and very marked was thle yesterday at the funeral services of the late Wal ter Porter, of Company D, Thirteenth regiment, which were held yesterday afternoon nl the residence of his par ents, Mr. and Mrs. Ira J. Porter, at Mooslc. There were no accomodations In the residence for the Immense concourse of relations and friends who assem bled to do honor to the memory of the deceased, and many were forced to rcmcln outside. The services were In charge of Rev. Rlchnrd Santee, of the Brick Methodist church. He preached a short but eloquent sermon from the text, Psalms, vlll:10, ."When thou shalt make his soul an offering for sin .'" The speaker's words were In part as follows: "Tho text speaks of Jesus giving his life as a; ransom for tho world. He gave himself for all sin. There Is a sense In which men also give themselves for the putting away of sins. The blessings we enjoy as a nation we have because men like the father of the deceased offered their lives for our country In the time of Its peril. "The young men w ho have now gone offered themselves for the deliverance of the world from tyranny. "Deep as Is tho rorrow of our hearts at the loss of our loved ones, the time Is yet coming when the world will rejoice at the deliverance wrought by the boys who are now giving their lives In this war for the onpressed."

No opportunity was given for the friends to view the remains as they had been shipped hero from Camp Alger In an hermetically sealed metal lic casket. This, though necessary, added to the sadness of the services. Just at the conclusion of the ser vices, a heavy thunder shower fell and delayed the cortege for nearly an hour. When It slackened the remains were taken to the Methodist cemetery and Interred. Great honor was here evidenced.
