Wan to Extinguish a Fire in tho Bavlne Mine at Tlttston Has Been Decided Upon by Officials. it was practically decided yesterday to Jlood two veins of tho Havlne col liery ut I'lttston, to extinguish tho fire that has been burning for several wec'ts Three veins nro worked nt this col liery, the big, third nnd fourth. Gas from the fourth found Its wny Into thn third through a bore hole nnd there exploded causing a a fire that has raged with a great deal of fury ever since. Immense quantities of water have been turned Into the part of the mine where the fire Is, but still It has not Leen subdued nnd yesterday at a con ference of officials nnd engineers of tho Newton Coal Mining company, which operated the ravine colliery, and the Pennsylvania coal company which operates workings connecting with the Ravine, It was decided that tho best and quickest way to extinguish tho fire would be to flood the mines as soon as proper precautions can be taken to protect the Pennsylvania company's workings from the water. It was the Intention to "plug" the shaft below tho big vein and continue to operate that scam while the lower veins arc being Hooded. LONG'S FALL OPENING. Particular Attention Being Directed to Millinery Department. Several thousand persons yesterday visited the big store of Jonas Long's Sons, and a lurge part of the throng expressed Its satisfaction over the linn's fall opening. While It was a general opening In the sense that all departments had something attractive to offer, the day was distinctive for the special dlspluy In the large millinery department. Hundreds of observant women were given opportunity to ascertain just what It will be proper to select for fashionable headgear. They were also given a chance to marvel at the stock, tremendous in quantity and variety, which this popular store contains. Some radical chances In styles wore apparent. The eye-tllted hat has been relegated to the past; It will now bo worn tilted slightly backward, and Its trimmings will not display the old burned orange color, either, for that is now passed and has given place to the newer and beautiful shades of blue, "military" red, castor and emin ence. In trimmings polka dots arc one prevailing feature, not only on velvets and ribbons, but on quills ns well. Feathers and quills will be used to a great extent, especially speckled nnd spotted or guinea feathers, as will Jet ornaments. In the collection of trimmed Jiats arc many of foreign design and make which are attracting no little atten tion. Among several designed by Mad ame Louise, of Paris, Is one of three separate crowns In as many shades of blue and made to set back from the face. From a puff effect In front taper two large wings fastened with jet ornaments. Another creation by Mad ame Louise Is of the English walking tyle. It has a brim of black felt chenille, mixed and folded In three graceful folds which form the shape. The crown Is artistically draped with black velvet caught at the side and front with four ostrich quills and two rhlnestone ornaments. A bandeaux effect is attained by the use of two large bunches of black violets. A fawn hat attracted much admira tion. It Is of castor color. Its flat brim Is ornamented In front with two white doves. The crown Is raised. It Is sur mounted b"y a finely pleated coronet from which hangs veiling of the same color. Edward Long, one of the firm, gives the millinery department of the store here and the one In Wllkcs-Barre his personal und whole attention. He de signs the hats for both stores. The millinery opening may be seen from the street on n small but hand some scale In the display window at the corner of tho building. The pre vailing colors, styles, trimmings and ornaments nre shown in one of tho richest window displays ever attempt ed In this city. A novel Interior-theater effect has been attulned by the decorator In arranging the window. Two windows on the Wyoming ave nue side are arranged with an attrac tive show from the store's dress-goods department, Reduced Excursion nates to Middle town, Pa. It Is announced by the Central Kail road of New Jersey that reduced rates of tf..M will be made from Scranton to Middletown, Pa..
