Consequently, no matter how low the price may be, the materials, shadings and styles are the veiy best the market of today has to offer, while the wealth of choice afforded in our limitless stocks such a special sale as the present a bargain oppor tunity of such surpassing excellence that shrewd buyers of limited means who feel it their duty to be in keeping with the times in the matter of dress, cannot afford to miss it.

Death Rate Was Low and There Was a Small Number of Arrests Fun eral of the Lato Edwin Reeso at the First Welsh Baptist Church. Attended by a Largo Number of Persons Remains of David Kami Interied Reckless Driving Dam ages a Carriage. October, the month of the biovvn ule" Is within one day of It close for this year, it has been a month replete with many incidents out of the ordin al v. even hero ln our mlcM In one respect it has been a unique month. During tho course of the preoc dins thirty days the West Scranton nolle detull have had a very quite month so far as art cuts or other troubles goes. In fact no other month in this year shows such n clean record on the dock et In the police court, though none have been very bad. Alderman John, who was police magistrate for the month, does not recall a quieter month throughout in jears during his exper ience In police com I matters. There have been but twelve arrests, eight men, three women and one boy, real ly all for ordinal y reasons. Three men wete committed In default of fine, one discharged with a reprimand nnd the rest fined. Two of the women were fined, the other wns discharged with a lepri mand. The boy was discharged with a reprimand, the prosecutor not desiring to press the charge. The total amount realized In lines for the month was thirty dollars. About two weeks ago twelve boys were urrestcd bv the po lice, all charged with malicious mis chief. They were given a hearing to gether and discharged after a lecture from the alderman. The lesson pi ave J efflcnclous among the lands of the com munity in which the boys arrested re side. The aldermen, without any ex ception on this side, have had a very scant number of "criminal cases" to transact. What few cases they have had were very trivial and were quick ly disposed of ln the aldermanlc courts. That a community of over 30.000 In habitants should enjoy one whole month so free fiom court business is an indication of that community's gen eial motals. Then, too, the sick and death rate has been very low during the month Most of the recorded mortality arose from Infantile or old ago causes. Two instances of suicide are rccoided. Lit tle if uny contagious diseases have been found despite the changes of weather. In connection with the death record it might be mentioned that sev eral of our oldest lesldents have been called to the great beyond during the month. Thus, ln a casual glance over two fields, which are always good sources of guaglng a community from month to month, we find that physically and morally West Scranton Is a good place to reside In.
