Tho Provisions Regarding Curbing and Now Concrete Must, Howovcr, Bo Eliminated City la Not Re quired to Award Contract for Street Repairs Under tho Rogulationa of nn Ordinance Tho Barber Com pany's Bulk Offer as Accepted by Resolution Stands. Judgre Gttnstor decided yesterday ihit tho $17,500 n ear asphnlt repair con trnct between the city and the Barber company Is valid except ns to It? lateral feutures, namely tho sottim? and re sotting of curbstone, the lnylng of now concrete nnd the like. He restrains the city controller from certifying the con tract ns It stands but leaves it open for the city to make a now conttaet to con form with the order Ho makes in the case. As to the allegations of the t(ttlty bill brought by U. Morris 'ittaekitis the contract on the ground that th- legis lation leading; up to It was faulty. Tho decree In the case Is ti'i follows' Thill tho conttnit executed b Janips U. ll.iiley as muor tor -md on behalf of the city of Scranton, and tho Uarber s phalt company, to the extent to whU'h It Includes Items other than lor n pairing nnd relalntr nuphalt In aicoidanie with the pinna and speclllcatlons in the city enslneet's ofllco bo and the saint Is hcie bv declared void and of no efteLl.

There is nothing before me to show that an annual appropriation of $1",U) for tho put poses mentioned, ii out of such bounds as would authorize u court of equity to decreo the ordinance unreasonable and void If tho ordinance stood alone, It might well Jio alleged that it was a delegation of legislative authority to tho cltv englneet, but ander the an swer of the defendants I am not pre pared to find that tuch a eonstructl-m should be put upon the contract what ever interpretation might be put upon tho oidlnance if it stood alone. In their answer the defendants say that the provision In question only ap plies to plumbers cuts, as shown by a clause of tho specifications. It l.s also alleged that those charges nre paid ty private individual who cause tho pave ment to be broken lor trenches and tho like nnd aro not to cost the tapayets anything. Tho piovlslons with regard to redress ing and relaying curb are not a part of the contract for keeping the pave In re pair, but are Inserted In order to have a tied prlco shuuld councils deeleln to have nnj such work done, arid that no dlsirctlou Is vested in the city engineer In the matter.

Spencer rTTTTTTTTWTTTYVVI Inconsistencies between the ordinance nnd spiclllcntlotiH as to thei mnnncr In which the proposals nre to bo made, but they aie not such us would prevent the making ot a valid contract, for tho rea son already given. Tho contention thut the city ennnot legally farm out work of this kind for a long period of years Is dismissed with cltuMons from supremo court decisions holding othuiwl.se. Concluding the' opinion the Judge snvs: Hut while 1 do not doubt t:i power ot tho cltv to enter into coutrnctb for the repali of its stuetH for a period of more than one yein, thu futthei (iustlon itittit bo considered, whether the mayor has authority to esecuto the cite now bofolo us, and whether the city controller should bo permitted to certify tho same. THKlti: IS A CONTLICT.

A large audience assembled at Music hall last night nnd enjoyed nn elaborate- programme ot music, tendered un der the Joint ulisplces of the Set an ion l.icdeikianz nnd the Willies-Hat 10 Concordia society Choruses by the two societies, piano solos by Ernest Dennett, of Wllkes-ltarri', and vocal soloi; by Miss AllMlstu He Mol'i, Wilkes-Hane'r supetb sopt.mo, made up the musical least The Ooncotdla was given a warm re ception It was down on the pio gramme for three numbers, but the audience would nut be satisfied until it had been tieated to twice that many selections Enthusiastic applause for the hlngeis and tails for the author followed the Wilkes-Uaireans pxc client rendition of Tlieodoif Hembei get's "Spring Song" The pretty compliment the Concordia's action com c eel was thoroughly appreciated Not a little of the applause was directed to the Concordia's able leadei, Adolph Har Isen. It was the genet al sentiment that the Wllkes-Uane society was never In better form nnd that they would be dangerous competltois for our own premier Liederkranz. The J-dedeikrunz was heaid last night for the lirst time under Its new director, Prof. Uemberger. Both the society and its leader were heartily greeted, and In response to the ova tion sin passed Itself In its several ren ditions. Miss De Mols fulfilled the highest cx pectntlonb of those who had Inward of her marevelously sweet and pine so prano voice. Her beauty and the ex pression which characterised her ren ditions proved powerful allies to her voice In winning for her tho warmest admiration ot the audience. Mr. Hennett, tho pianist, Is a prom ising young pupil of Prof Stadler, of Wyoming seminary. He was heatd in two different compositions of Hollo, and in a triple number, which Includ ed n selection of Ottenhofer, a capricclo brilliant by Mendelssohn and a Chopin waltz.

Cashier Dunham, of tho Dime Batik, Writes a Lucid Explanation of tho System, Which Will Be Found Veiy Interesting. To all interested In the School Sav ings Bank Sjstom, 1 would like to snv a few words, particularly rctiucstlng nil pnicnts, teuuhers and scholars to read this article The School Savings UunU Rjstem Is not a lieu thing or a fad It has been In use for over twelve years In tho schools of this coltntrv. It Is now In use In sixty-three cities of the United Stutes, and (.choline, have deposited in banks $i;i,S11.3T. It is the put pose of this fystem to tench oveiy pupil the real value of money rind the Importance of nnvlng something every week. It Is also linpottiint that the scholars should give some service for every penny de posited, to properly appreciate tire value of the money deposited Parents should not give their children money to deposit without requiring some ser vice fot the inonev let each wholar know vvh'it It means to earn the money. Do not emphasize so much the deposit ing of large amounts, us the Import ance of making a business of saving something each week, no matter how small the amount The scholar who has tt pass book un der this eystem, earns the tnonev de posited and deposits something every week, Is acquit lug habits of tin lft and economy, und also leurnlng, In a prac tical way, something about business. Such a pupil knows what a bank book Is; what a deposit slip means, and what a check means', how to add deposits In one column nnd checks In another column, and that the balance carried to the right hand column is the amount to their credit In tho hank. There can be nothing taught In the public schools which will do a scholar mon good in after life than to make practical busi ness men and women of them. The following i" the method In use in ten schools in the city On every Monday morning w hen the roll Is called each scholar answers "Yes, one cent," or "Ye, five cents." whatever sum he has to deposit, arises fiom his se it and delivers the money, with his weekly card, to the teach t. who counts the monej and itiheilbes tho amount on a iccoiil book and upon the weekly caul, upon whlil. the name of the pupil, the teacher end the amount and date of ptevlous deposits arc Inscribed. When Ihe teacher has tinl-hed calling the toll and collecting the pavings, the money collected In the- ilnss is counteil to see It the amount tortesponds with the total amount Inserlbeel on the retoiel book, if the amounts tally, the money is Immediately .sent lo tho pilnclpai In a scaled envelope, with the name of the teacher, the amount and tho date written on the outside of the envelope. After receiving the envelopes, as above deseilbeel, fiom all the teacheis, the princlpil makes a llt In his receud book of the names of each teacher and places opposite theli ipspectlvc names Ihe amounts s,ent in these sealed en velopes A duplicate list K thn sent to the hank bv lh,e principal, together with nil the nionev collecteel, nnd de posited in the bank to tho ciedlt of the pilnclpai. He receives In return a pass book Horn the bank with amount eied Ited theleon. On the last Moudav of eaih month iae h teacher furnishes the pilnclpai with a list of pupils having one dollar or mote to their credit on their weekly caul. These lists are sent by the piln clpai to the bank, together with his i heck tui the sum total of said lists. A regulat bank hook Is tued in th name of each lutpll having one elollar tn his credit, as before stated Inter est Is paid on all such nee omits from the date of Issuing of the pass books. THE PART TAKEN BY THE DIME DEPOSIT AND DISCOUNT HANK IN THE SCHOOL SAVINGS BANK SYSTEM So tur as we know. In other iltles it has been cuslomaiv for the m-hools to furnish the necessary blanks for this system but the Dime Bank, recognis ing that its ptosporltv Is due to the kindness of Its nuineiotih patrons, leols under obligation to do all Irr its power, within Its sphere, to promote the wel fare of this community. Therefore a speclul ledger has been provided for school savings accounts and all neces sary forniEi are furnished to the schools free of charge. The bank has spaied neither time nor expense in trying to Introduce this system nnd will gladly send a l.-presentatlve to any school to explain the system itrd make every thing easy for the teacher. We hope all te aeliPrs, patents and scholars in the Hchools of this city and countj w III show their appi eolation of our effoits by co-operating with us in Introducing this svstem in every school. We will cheerftillv answer any questions or make further explanation to any one Intel ested. In a school where the teai'her shows a lack of interest in the real purpose of this pystotn, the under taking will suiely fail. Teachers, scholars- and parents must all be enthusias tic, then good results will certainly follow. II. G. Dunham. Cashier.

So Styi One ol ihe Oreitest ol American Physicians and lie Proves What He Says. "It Is surptlslng what mistakes cv i some of tho best pooplo In tho vvotm make." Tho saenker was one ot tho grculisl doctors tho world has ovor known, and ho resides in New York. "Tako for exnmplo ono of tho most common things in tho world, namely, a cold. People speak of 'taking cold,' there Is reully no such thing. "A cold is n svrnptom an effect, not a cause. Did you over know an absolutely well nnd healthy person who took cold7 I never have, even under the greatest exposure. Yes. Indeed, a cold Is u symp tom, not a cause." Tho gentlemen and ladlis to whom the doctor was speaking exchanged looks ot astonishment but they did not dispute the words of tho learned doctor. "You may bo surprised," ho continued, "when 1 tell you that nlne-toiithn of all colds occur because those) great organs of tho body, tho Kidneys, aro out of or der. "More men and women are troubled with imperfect klndncvs than with any other known form of disease. Tho tin- fortunate thing about it Is that they do not know that this Is their trouble. "Why? Becauso all difficulties, e'.e rangements and disease of tho kidiit which como to both men and women u usually without any pain; In fact, wltho it any symptoms whatever, and this piov s just what 1 said at first, namely, thut ' v cold Is o. symptom.' " There was a look of amazement upon Iho faces of his hearers. "Indeed," continued tho doctor, most deliberately und earnestly, "I assert that tho grip, which has been so disastrous, which has brought so much trouble into tho world, would never have had its inn it tho kidneys of thoso who had suffered from It hail ben in perfect condition. Theso great oigans. if uiiclogged, would havo thrown the ellsease from the system so that tho grip would have be"n un known. "Now there Is but ono gicat discovery for tho prevention anil cine of ull kidney dllllcultlts that grand remedy. Warner's Safe Cure No class of people know or realize this better than tho medical pro fession, and no class is moro ready to acknowledge it "Tako mv word, nnyono who is care ful upon tho first approach of a cold or grip und goes right to the seat of all colds tho kidneys will not suffer long from a colli, will not be oppressed by the grip and need have no fear of pneumonia. because' tne lclelneis, uncloggccl, will open up tho svstem nnd throw the germs of disease out of the body You can depend upon this."
