Fashion's Ideas
Have Matured.
There's 110 longer any doubt as to what is .the cor
rect thing to wear. Weaves, fabrics and shades have
now been definitely passed on by a critical public,
and their verdict is final, for, no matter what the
designer, weaver or modiste may plau or scheme for
women's delight, if their ideas fail to meet with pop
ular approval, they have surely labored in vain.
For This and Other Reasons
For this and other reasons we would remark that
further delays in the purchase of
Fancy Dress Goods,
Black Dress Goods
And Seasonable Silks
Are useless. All the late deliveries have come to
hand, and stocks are now
At Their Best.
In moderate priced materials all the other stocks in
town combined will not compare with the line to be
seen here, while in the finer fabrics and exclusive
novelties, the cream ot the world's best productions
are to be found right in our fixtures, or exposed for
for the convenience of lookers, on our many show
tables.
As to Prices ?
Well, values were never better.

Dunmore, Oct. 10, 1S3S.
Again tho people of this town arc
startled, this tlmo by tho woman in
blacH, who Inhabits the dark streets
and other lonely spots where peoplo
have to travel after dark. It Is not
women and girls alone who are tho
subjects of this person's assaults, but
men are put to lllght Immediately at
the sudden appearance of this ghostly
object, dressed In black and with snow
white face, which seems to come fiom
nowhere, and as soon as the deed Is
commute, returns to Us abode while
the victim stands, terror stricken, un
able to cry, or otherwise help himself.
It does not confine itself to any partic
ular spot. The early part of last week
the vicinity of Apple street was the
spot selected for carrying on this game
of scare, and many were the subjects.
This street, from Drinker, going north,
Is without u light, making It an ldeol
spot for this person to carry on his
pranks. The neighbors au afraid to
leave their houses after dark for fear
of being assaulted. If the person Is
wise he will stop his actions before It
Is to late, for sooner or later he is
bound to come to grief
A hoi so belonging to Mine Foreman

an axle broke, this frightened thu
horse, which Is a frisky animal, and
giving a leap he threw tho occupants
uron the ground and damaged tho
buggy. The horse, without slackening
Its speed, kept on until It reached tha
barn. Tho only damage done was to
the carriage, which will need a gen
eral overhauling.

DEATH OF ISAAC FULLER.
Tor Years Ho Was One of New York
State's Leading Editors.
Isaac Fuller, the veteran editor, of
PoughkeepMe, N. Y., died Saturday
morning at the age of 80 years. He
was a brother of Charles nnd George
Fuller, both deceased, who were promi
nent In tho early history of this city;
and he was an uncle of E. V. Kings
bury. Mr. Fuller visited Scranton many
times and was well known. His pub
lic caieer covered tho Interesting peilod
I or tliu history of the rnlted States, run.
nlng from the days of Andrew Jackson
down to the present. He was an Inti
mate friend of William II. Seward,
Thurlow Weed. Edwin D. Morgan. New
I York's famous war governor, and 'iteu
ben E. Fenton, also governor of the
J Empire state.
isuiween ,ir. I'uuer ana .Mr. seward
there always existed a warm friend
ship. He considered Mr. Seward tho
grandest statesman of contemporary
history, and when tho latter's ambition
to become president was proclaimed he
had no more enthusiastic supporter ;
than Mr. Fuller, who was one of the 1
leading spirits of the big New York
delegation that went to Chicago for the 1
purpose of booming that candidacy.
Fate decreed that the star of destiny
should shine upon Abraham Ivlncoln.
Mr, Fuller was born February 21, 1812,
at Drldgewater, Susquehanna county,
whither his parents had Immigrated a
short time before from Connecticut. He
early displayed a literary tutn of mind,
nnd In 1SS0, nt the age of IS, became
the editor of the Independent Volun
teer, a strong nntl-Jackson paper, pub
lished at Montrose. Four years later
he went to Honesdale, where he be
came associated with Mr. Kingsbury,
father of E. P. and II. A. Kingsbury,
of this city, In the publication of the
Wayne County Herald.
In the year 1837 he went to Seneca
Falls, N. Y where he became tho edi
tor of the Courier, which he conducted
with much signal ability until 1805,when
he gave up the editorship to nccent a
position In the government printing
office at Washington, which he held
down to within a few years, when he
was compelled to lay down his labors
through failing health. He could pass
for thirty years younger, being a won
derfully well-preserved man. He never
used tobacco In any form or Intoxicat
ing liquors.
His first presidential vote was cast In
1R3G for William Henry Harrison, who
was defeated In that election, but be
came president four years later. In
1811 he was appointed postmaster of
Seneca Falls, which he held four years.
He was again appointed In ISfil by
President Lincoln and was one of his
first appointees. He resigned It In 1SG9
to go to Washington. He attended the
first convention of the Itepubllcan party
In 1S50, when General John C. Fremont
was nominated for the presidency; and
he was present at both nominations of
Lincoln, and at the nomination of
Blaine nnd Harrison. In 1S53 he was
elected clerk of Seneca county and was
tho only Itepubllcan ever chosen to that
office. In 1863 and '61 Mr. Fuller was
secretary of New York state Itepubll
can committee, and he called to order
the convention that nominated Gover
nor Fenton In 1SG3. Hoscoe Conkllng
wus chairman of that convention.
Mr. Fuller watched the growth of
modern Journalism with much satis
faction und expressed himself a few
years auo while on a visit to his
nephew, E. P. Kingsbury, that the pro
gress seems almost beyond humun be
lief. TECHNICAL ERROES ALLEGED.
Demurrer to Impeachment Petition
Was Filed.
The validity of tho petition filed by
C. M. DeLong In the Impeachment pro
ceedings against Alderman Kelly, of
the Eighteenth ward, was attacked In
a demurrer presented to court Satur
day by Attorneys W. W. Baylor and
O'Hrlcn & Kelty, counsel for the ac
cused. It is claimed thut the petition Is de
fective Inaomuch as it was addressed
to tho court generally, and not to a
particular Judge, as the law requires;
that It was not signed by twenty "In
habitants" of tho batlwick of the ac
cused; that none of the signers were
residents of the Eighteenth ward; that
It wan not sworn to before a person
authorized to administer an oath, and,
lastly, that the allegations were too
vague to warrant Judicial notice.
Judge Archbald allowed amendments
to be made to the petition to cure Its
alleged dofecta and dismissed the de
murrer. An exception to thla action
was taken by thir counsel for tht ex
cused magistrate.
The case wilt now come up before a
commissioner.
