MR. WAGNER BRINGS SUIT.
Claims He Is the Duly Elected
County Commissioners1 Clerk.
On tho strength of his appointment.
In December last, for n term ot three
years, Charles P. Wngncr, cx-clcrk to
tho county commissioners, who was
deposed by tho new board on Jan. 1,
has brought suit In nssumpsltngalnst
Lncknwanna county to recover $1J"
representing tlio salary or that posi
tion for tho month of January.
Last year nn act was passed au
thorizing county comnilbsloners to ap
point their chief chnk for n. tcim of
three yenrs Instead of from year to
year ns was done piovlously. Tho
old board, Just before retiring, accept
ed Mr. Wagner's resignation and then
re-nppolnted him for tluce yeais at n
salary of Jl.TOO u year. Mr. Wagner
formally accepted tho appointment
nnd filed his bond.
Tho new board u fitted to recognize
the appointment and nude W. U.
Daniels, chief clerk. Mr. Wtigner noti
fied tho new commissioners of the no
tion of their 'rcdecpsois and that he
stood ready to perform tho duties of
the position. At the end of tho month
he presented htuisdf with n demand
for his puv, and, upon being lefusod,
had his attorney, A. A. Vosbur,?,
bring suit.
It is probable that Mr. Vosburg nnd
County Solicitor H. I,. Taylor will
agree to submit the matter to court In
tho fotm nf a case stated. Tho law
has not ni yet been passed upon by
a court.
POWDER WILL BLEW UP.
Two Men Lost Their Lives in the
Corning Mill of Consumers Pow
der Company, Peckville.
A ton ot giant powder exploded In
the corning mill of the Consumers
Powder company at Peckville, early
Saturday morning, killing tho two men
employed theie, Geoigo Sliotwell and
Chailes Mulllneux. badly wrecking tho
bull. Him and shaking tho house:, for
miles around.
Shotwell was Instantly killed. Ho
was found 1 Ing on his back on tho
lloor of tho demolished mill so badly
burned nnd blacked that bo scarcely
iC'Cinblud the fotm of a human.
MulllnctiK was blown through tho
door a distance of thirty feet, with
his clothes ablane and his hands anl
face terribly burned. He picked him;
self up nnd lan to tho wash housa
with the evident Intention nf dousing
himself with water. Follow emplojes
arited In timo to restialn him and
soon had physicians on tlio scene to
allelato his sufferings. Ho was re
moved to his home where ho passed
away at 3 o'clock p. m.
The mill wus a to-stoiy ft aim"
sti nature roofed and venered with
zinc. The force of thr evploslcn was
upward and tho walls wete not wholly
destioyi-d. The explosion oecuired at
7 o'clock in the morning bofoie all
the emplojes were about. Had It been
an hour later there is a possibility that
theie would have been n larger loss of
life. How the explosion was caused
Is not definitely known but It Is sup
posed a bolt from tlio machinery
diopped Into the rolls and made a
spark which Ignited tho powder. A
dent In tho rolls ippears as If It was
made by some hard substance passing
through.
The same mill blew up, October 18,
15P9, killing two of the hands. Bur

BRIEF MENTION OF
' MEN OF THE HOUR
ATTORNEY S. B. PRICE AND
THE JUDICIARY.
There Is n Sentiment in His Party
in Favor of Making Him the Can
didate for Judge Next Fall.
Thomas Murphy Promoted from
Second to First Lieutenant Now
at' Manila with the Forty-seventh
Volunteer Infantry Now Junior
House Surgeon at Lackawanna.
Dining the last few days tho nainj
of Attorney S. B. Pilco has been on
many tongues ns tho possible suclcj
sor of this Into Judge Gunster on tho
bench. In lofeirlng to persons lit the
local bar who could fittingly don tho
ermine tho thought of those who
know something of Mr. Price's lino
legal attainments naturally turn ' to
him. Mr. Price is not likely to be tho
choice of Governor Stono for ho Is
not u Republican but It Is among tho
possibilities th.it ho will bo tho Dem
ocratic candidate next fall.
An Influential element of his party
believe ho would make n very strong
candidate nnd they will piobably try
to pcisuade him to bo their candidate.
Theie Is some doubt, however, about
securing his consent to enter Into such
an nctlve campaign ns a light for tho
Judgeship In this county entails. He
Is a man who has no tarte for tho
huily-burly of politics nnd who has
never taken n very active Interest In
party affairs. While this robs him of
experience it makes him tho more
available because he would not have
to contend with the factional differ
ences that a, man who has had an ac
tive hand In the party management
Is sute to arouse and which often de
stioys his availability as a candi
date. Thomas Murphy, of this city, has
been made a iirst lieutenant of the
regiment of luntcers with which ho
Is now doing service in tho Philip
pines. Lieutenant Mini by has in him
tho stua' fiom which model soldiers
.no mndo and had ho arrived in our
far away eastern possessions In time to
tnko pni t In the active operations
theio against tlio Insurgents it is like
ly that he would have been heard
ftom. He knows his duty nnd has tho
courage to poiform It, and lias be
sides, that quality so essential in an
olllcor ot being able to enthuse and
uiouse the men under him.
Lieutenant Muiphy enlisted In tho
Tliliteenth leplinent as a drummer
boy and when able to cnirv a gun
took his placo in tho line of Company
lie went thiougli the different
gindes of coipoi.ils and sergeants and
when his company was miidteied Into
the olunleer auny at Mt. Oictni at
the outbreak of tho Spanish war ho
was elected second lieutenant of his
company nnd solved In that capacity
until tho icglment was mustered out
ot the seivice in Match lant.
He became second lieutenant of tho
leotganled company but hankering
for active, service lie accepted a com
mission in tho volunteer ormy and
was assigned to the Foity-scventh In
fantry ns second lieutenant. Immed
iately upon his nitlval at Manilla ho
was made a first lieutenant and Is now
serving in that capacity with his regi
ment. Dr. Frank P. Gcngenbacli, the new
junior house surgeon at tho Lacka
wanna hospital is like his predecessor,
Dr. Theodoie Wels?nbeig, and his
present senior. Dr. John Bu.sch, a
graduate of the 1'nlvei slty of Penn
sylvania Medical school, having left
that Institution In '!'! In the fame class
with both the above mentioned gen
tlemen. Dr. Cengenbach came to
Scianton fiom St. Clnlntopher's hos
pital, Philadelphia, which he entered
shoitly alter leaving school. This
hospital Is devoted to tho set vice of
children nlone, und evciy ear thous
ands of little ones, either afflicted with
disease, or lnjuied In accident, aio
taken caro of and mused back to
health.
Personally, the doctor la a. pleasant,
genial young man, of mediur.i height
with the built of an athlete. In fact
ho i'i somewhat athletically inclined
and at college was very prominent In
football, lowing and gymnastic exei
clses. Hp was captain of tho Uni
versity of Pennsylvania gymnastic
team tor several yeais. lowed on his
class ciew and plnjed qtiat tcr-back
on the class foot ball eleven.
Thomas Cosgiove, of Plttston, Is
piobably tho only man In this teglon
who wears the Vlctoila Cioss. This Is
the highest token of honor which the
English government bestows on sol
diers whose deeds ot biavery have
pioved them worthy of some emblem
of distinction. Tho niembeis of the
English nuns', and British citizens gen
erally, look with udmhation nnd envy
upon the one on whose manly breast
hangs thP Vlctoila Cioss. TIip medal
Is mode of bronze and l.i In the shape
of a Maltese uos-s. It hangs fiom a
special duik led ribbon and Is suitably
Inscilbed, No man can get moip than
one medal, although subsequent heiolo
deeds are acknowledged by tho addi
tion of a bar.
This medal was confened upon Mr.
Cosgiove In August, 1SC7, and guiles
with it a quaiteily pension of $12,
which has been leielved ever since.
The medal was uw aided for a deed of
heiolsm peifoimed by Mr. Cosgrovo
when he was a pilvato In tho English
army In 1S67. With four companions
at great personal llsk they rescued a
iiiiiuber of companions who became
lost und were afteiwaids taken piis
nneis bv natives nf the Andaman Isl
anils, with whom tho English soldiers
weio then having a. sciiinmage.

Pianofortes
Were found worthy of a
HIGHER DISTINCTION
than all others at the
Philadelphia National Export Exposition, 1899
The Mason & Hamlin Pianos received the very Highest Honors nnd were the
only plauos to receive such at the Philadelphia Notional Ivxnort Imposition, for in
the case of the Mnsou & Hamlin Pinnos the Jury of Awards did not rest bv Hiring
the H gnest Midil In the r pow:r, but finding these instruments so distinguished
by their tone quality and general superiority as to place theui in a class by them
selves, the Jury referred them to the Committee of Science ami Arts of the Frank
lin Institute of Philadelphia, specially recommending that an extra exceptional
iWidal be bestowed.
The Pianofortes of no other maker were rccoguicd by the Jury of Awards as
meriting this sigual distinction.
A complete stock of these instruments may be seen at the wnrcrooms of the
