'Mr. Joseph Jay, ur., who, while
alighting from the carriage at the Dela

ago, was so severely Injured Internally,
died on Saturday morning shortly after
10.30 o'clock. Deceased was born In
Cornwall, England, slxty-threo years
ago, and for tho past thirty years had
been a resident, of this country, twenty-eight
years o'f which had been spent
In this borough. For twenty years ho
had held the position of welghmaster
at tho Delaware and Hudson colliery,
a position often very difficult to fill
and to please 'both cmployors and
miners, and tho fact that he succeeded
In doing this, and the universal expres
sions of regret at his death heard from
the men, Is a trlbuto of no mean worth.
He was closely connected with tho
Methodist Episcopal church, of which
he was class teacher and steward for
many yearn, and tho Christianity ho
professed at tho church ho practiced
In everyday life, both at home and nt
work. It is therefore not surprising
that the deceased was so highly es
teemed. His death has created quite
a shock and caused profound sorrow.
Ho Is survived by a widow and son,
Joseph, and four daughters, Mrs. Annie
Lander, Mrs. Samuel Brokenshlro, Mrs.
William Seymour, of this borough, and
Mrs. Georce Belch, of Madorla, Cali
fornia. Three brothers also survive
him, Rev. Stephen Jay, of Ashley;
Thomas Jay, of Butte City, Montana,
and Richard, of California. The funeral
will bo held this afternoon nt 1.30 at

dist Episcopal church.

The Reds base ball club Journed to
Old Forge on Saturday afternoon and
succeeded In administering defeat to
the strong aggregation of that place.
Shield handled the sphere for the hbrre
team and did fairly well, considering

when Morris relieved him. The latter
appeared to be rather wild, but suc
ceeded in holding his opponents with
one scratched hit. Gallagher pitched
for the Old Forge and was touched up
quite freely, but his support was of the
ragged kind. The game was devoid of
features, with tho exception of the sen
sational catch by Right Fielder Stone.

PITTSTON NEWS.
Death, of John Anderson and a Short
Sketch of His Life Memorial Ser
vices in the Soveral Churches Yes
terday A Drop in Real Estate.
John Anderson on Saturday morning
died at his home In iProspect place from
general debility, superinduced by tho
grippe, which attacked him a year ago.
John Anderson was born In Dumfrle
shlre, Scotland, seventy-one years ago,
and at the age twenty-three emi
grated to this country, with nothing
but indomitable pluck, plenty of en
ergy, and an honest heart to represent
his worldly goods. He had showed con
siderable skill as a mechanic, and de
ciding to locate in PIttston, where sev
eral Scotchmen had preceded him, he
arrived in 1851. His first work was for
the Pennsylvania Coal company and
four years later tho PIttston Water
company was established and he was
selected as Its president and treasurer.
He continued to superintend tho af
fairs of tho company until it passed
Into the hands of tho Spring Brook
Water company. In 1835 he married
Mary Bryden, only sister of A. A. Bry
den, president of the Miners' bank, and
the result of this union was three chil
dren, who survive him, as follows: At
torney J. W. Anderson, Mrs. John
Christie, of North Adams, Mass., and
Mrs. Walter Lorlmer, of Philadelphia.
He was one of the oldest Odd Fellows
in the state, and a charter member of
Thistle lodge; was ono of the few who
organized Kaglo Hose company, one of
tho best Independent companies In the
state, was Its first foreman and con
tinued as an active member until a
few years ago when, owing to falling
health, he retired from all business pur
suits. The deceased was a kind Chris
tian man, quiet and genial In disposi
tion, and had not an enemy In the
world, nnd there was no one In this
vicinity who was higher respected. He
was a. member and trustee of the First
Presbyterian church for fifty years, and
tho funeral, which occurs this (Mon
day) afternoon, will bo conducted by
Rev. Dr. Parke, who was his pastor
during nil these years, assisted by Rev.
J. J. K. Fletcher. Tho deceased has
left to his family quite a competence,
tho result of a busy and successful life,
but better still, tho memory of one who
strlved to better the condition of hi
fellow-man, and who had lived as ho
died, a good husband, kind father, an
honored citizen and an upright man.
The services at the several churches
were of more than usual Interest, on
account of tho near approach of Decor
ation day. At St. John's, on William
street, Very Rev. Father Garvey cele
brated first mass and concluded with
some very valuablo Instructions to his
congregation. Memorial services were
observed In the Episcopal.Presbyterlan,
Methodist, Baptist and Congregational
churches, while at the hall of the Young
Men's Christian association In tho af
ternoon Rev. O. L. Severson made a
patriotic address to tho members of
Companies C and I. During tho after
noon the corner-stone of the new Polish
National church was laid with appro
priate services and Bevcral priests, so
cieties and Individuals from Scranton,
Prlceburg, Plymouth and Wllkes-Barro
were present.
Some of tho real estate In the vicin
ity of the Erie and Wyoming Valley
road on William street dropped sev
eral inches yesterday mornlg and cre
ated considerable excitement among
tho residents of that locality, owing to
tho recent damage done to property on
Lambert street, but investigation re
vealed the fact that no serious con
sequences may bo looked for.,
Alexander Bryden, who for a long
time has been In tho employ of Sacks
& Brown, has resigned and has ac
cepted a more lucrative position with
Jonas Long's Sons, Wllkes-Barre.
The Elks will tender the ladles a re
ception In their new quarters In tho

ously ill for the past week, so much
so that his life was despaired of, was
reported somewhat Improved yesterday.
Tho military drill by thirty-two
young ladles at Keystone hall, under
the auspices of tho Ladles' auxiliary
of tho Young Men's Christian associa
tion, tomorrow nnd Wednesday even
ings will bo something not 'to be missed.

Sunday amusements yesterday In
cluded ball games in Port Blanchard,
Port Giimth and Inkerman, while

ing main. The unlawful attractions
were attended by crowds of would-be
sports. No arrests.
Judgo Terrlll went up to Ithaca to
recuperato from the Injuries he re
ceived on our slippery asphalt on Sat
urday, while Sam Harris Is laid up for
repairs, owing to the same kind of an
accident. The latter had his knee dis
located. Mrs. H. S. Staples and family, for
merly of Scranton, but now of Oyster
Bay, Long Island, are tho guests of
Mr. and Mrs. Simon Wertz, on Spring
street, West Side.
Last evening the officers were busy
preventing crowds from congregating
on tho sidewalk, but no particular at
tention was paid to the squads of
youthful depravity who occupied their
time In using Insulting remarks to peo
ple who were engaged in minding their
own business. Another matter which
shows how matters In the way of re
form can be overdone. Several guests
who were occupying chairs outsldo tho
curb were ordered to vacate. This hap
pened In front of one of our prominent
hotels, and one of tho guests remarked
that he would stop over no more In a
town where you are compelled to stay
Indoors.
Beware of Ointments for Catarrh
That Contain Mercury.
as mercury will surely destroy tho sense
of smell and completely ilorango the

from reputable phytlclans, as tho dam
ago they will do is tenfold to tho good
you can possibly derivo from them. Hall's
