The second Item In the above mathe
matical computation was supplied yes
terday when the county constat
made Its quarterly report. As each opl
very return was sworn to. there can
be no question reasonably raised ns to
their accuracy.
Judge Edward?, who was receiving
the returns, was unreasonable enough
to hint at a possible mistake having
been made by Mr. Lance, the con
stable of the Fifteenth ward, where
there were no licensed places last year.
"Are there no violations in your
ward?" the court asked In tones of
real or affected surprise, when Mr.
Lance's report had been Bcanned.
"No, your honor," replied the con
stable, likewise expressing surprlbe
that the judge should Intimate even
by an Inflection of the voice that his
affidavit was even subject to suspic
ion. "There are, though," rejoined the
Judge, "for in passing along the streets
I have seen through their open doors
the sale of Intoxicating liquors in
places not licensed."
The constable shrugged his shoulders
with a shrug that said: "Well, you
can see better than I can," or some
thing to that effect.
Constable Collins, of the Seventh
ward, said he had thought there were
""me parties In his bailiwick selllns
without license, but when he returned
them the grand Jury Ignored the bills,
nnd now he Is satisfied he was mis
taken. "1 take the Jury's word lor It,"
said Mr. Collins.
In charging the grand Juiy later in
the day, Judge Edwards rrferreil tj
the constables' returns and said that
If the public relies on the present
means supplied by the law for ivgu
latlng the liquor traffic the public is
going to fall to have the liquor tratPr:
properly regulated. He did not par
ticularly find fault with the constabu
lary, but rather with the lnadequacj
of the system. There ought to be new
legislation thut would lx more effect
ive, the judge believed.
Th grand Jury retired at 1U.30 o'clock
with P. A. Barrett, .Scranton manager
of the Elmlra Telegram, as forenv-n.
All of the twenty-four jurors .jum
inoned responded, which is an unusual
thing. As the law provides that not
more than twenty-three shall uervr.
Isaac Brown, Insurance agent, Scrnn
ton, was excused, he having requested
to be relieved.
Lawyer Was the Whole Thing.
William Shafer, defendant In a re
plevin suit Instituted November 11,
"897,came into court yesterday, through
Attorney George S. Horn, und pre
sented the following petition:

Bnd did not notify your petitioner, who
wan residing In the city of Scranton, that

of March. A. D. 1900, the said G. M.
Okell acting ns counsel for said plaintiffs
directed the prothonntary to enter judg
ment for want of n plea and thereupon
such Judgment was entered. 1319.34. Your

Liens Were Filed Too Late.
Judge Archbald yesterday decided
that the liens for the West Lacka
wunna avenue paving assessment filed
by the city against the properties of
David W. Williams, Roger McGowan,
the Collins estate, Mary Moore, Mary
Williams and Mary Prltchard nre In
vulld, because they were not filed
within six months from the tlnii of
the completion of the final assessment,
as the law directs.
The final assessment was certified to
the city clerk December -t. 1896, and the
Hens were filed June T, 1897, or three
days more than six months later. The
city tried to show that the final as
sessment was not actually completed
until December 10, 1896; that by a
clerical error it was wrongfully dated
December 4, 1896, and that this error
was copied into the Hens as filed. The
contention of the city was that the
clerical work on the assessment wan
begun December 4 and not completed
till December 10.
Under a decision bv the late Judge
Qunster the city can proceed In as
sumpsit to recover the claims, and
later In the day City Solicitor Vosburg

ants In the office of Alderman Fuller.

refusal to take his advice looking to

Croop, her in niter's twenty-four-year
old husband uml he admitted the
charge. Konlg overlooked this short
coming, but when his wife heaped con
tinual abuse on him he decided to quit

Place In Reforms and What Is tho Wo
man's Christian Temperance Union Do
ing?" LINKED WITH FOLLY.
This is a story that belongs to the olden
time. A certain lord, pleased with the
sallies of his jester presented him with a
new bauble saying "Keep this Archie un
til you find a greater fool than yourself to
bestow it on." One day the nobleman lay
a-dying, and with his household went
Archie to look his last upon his master's
face and hear his voice once more.
The jester stooped above his lord and
said "Master, why do you say good-by?"
"I am going a journey Archie" was the
feeble answer. "How long a journey?"
the jester asked. "Nay Archie I do not
know." " Wkither thea does thy journey
lead ? " " Neither de I know that Archie. '
"What provision hast thou made for this
journey?" "None at all" sighed the
nobleraaa. Archie leaked long and hard
in his taattcr's free, thea he placed bis
baable la kit lord's head. "Take it" he
said "far I have fouad a greater fool than
myself."
There la so greater folly than ignorance
where knowledge is possible and vitally
neccisary to safety aad happiness, and yet
tent of thousands of people walk this world
liaked with foil. They are ignorant of
the condition of life, ignorant of the con
stitution of their own bodies. Children
grow to manhood and womanhood ignorant
of the conditions under which nature
fovemi. They break her laws recklessly,
hey exhaust thenuelvea in the mistaken
effort to "have a good time" while they
are young.
Some day cornea the shock when nature
presents her overdraft account and de
mands payment Sometimes it's heart
trouble, sometimes the stomach fails of its
functions, sometime the liver refuses to tug
any longer at its load, or the kidneys balk
at their burden. Sometimes, very often in
deed, a red spot begins to bum on the
cheeks, a hacking cough, develops, the
breath grows short, the stte ngth oozes out
at night in dripping sweat, and every
day the daily walk is shortened by a few
steps as the strength fails. That's con
sumption. The theory is that consumption cannot
be cured, and it's a theory so deeply rooted
that time is waited in combating it. But
what is a cure in such a case? Suppose a
man (or womaa) with all the symptoms of
consumption takes, as thousands and
thousands have taken, Dr. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery, and live on to a
healthy, happy, hearty old age as these
same thousand and thousands have done,
and dies ia the allotted time of a ripened
life. Two positions are possible. You can
say "it was net really consumption he
had. " Or it can be said " he really died of
consumption after all." But the unanswer
able fact is that the man lived out his three
score years and ten. What is a cure any
way ? Isn't it life ? You don't care what
disease you may be said to have if you are
enjoying health and live out your long life
in comfort and content One fact, at least.
is well established. That the "Golden
Medical Discovery " doe cure weak lungs,
bleeding from lungs, obstinate, lingering
cough, laryngitis, bronchitis, throat dis
ease, and kindred affection of the air-passages,
which if neglected or badly treated,
lead up to consumption, can bo longer be
doubted in view of the many thousands of
well established cares of such case report
ed by the most trustworthy citlsen.
Hanyef these cases have been pronounced
coataaption end incurable by the best
local physieUs before tbe suferera com
meseed the aae ef Dr. Pierce' Golden
Medieal Diaeevery.
, Whether the doctor have erred ia their
indgssaent ia these numerous esse or not
ia not for us ts decide.
"I had. a very bed cough, also night-sweats
aad was alaaoet (a ay grave with consumption,"
writes Mrs. Clara Melatyre, of Ashland, Middle
sex, Co.. Mass.. Box I7i. "A friend of mine
who had died of consumption came to me in a
dream aad tola me to take Dr. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery, and, thtnk the Lord, I did
to. By the Urns I had taken half of the first
bottle 1 felt much better. I kept on till I had
takes three bottles. Thst wss all I neededTH
get well tad strong again."
"I bad the grip, which left me feeling miser.
tMe no strength and a cough," writes Mrs. C.
Maysard, of Bast Lyme. New Loudon
Conn. "As some of mv family dltd of com
Co.,
tioa. I Jtartd that. I began taking Or. Piercers

FEDERAL SESSIONS
TO BEGIN TODAY
JUDOE BtTXTXNOTON WILL PRE-
SIDE IN BOTH COURTS.
Owing; to Judge Acheson Being In
Attendance at the United States
Circuit Court of Appeals in -Philadelphia,
the District Court Judge
Is Called Upon to Take Care of
Both the Criminal and the Civil
Cases- List of Cases Likely to Be
Tried During the Session.
Owing to Judge Acheson's presence
being demanded at tho United States
circuit court of nppenls, now in session
at Philadelphia, Judge Buflllngton will
be called upon to preside nt both tho
district and circuit courts, which be
gin their annual Scranton session in
the Federal court room here, this
morning at 10 o'clock.
Tho district or criminal court list Is
comparatively small and It is expected
it will bo disposed of in two dnys. Af
ter that the civil list will be called
and proceeded with, probably for a
week or ten days.
The first case on the civil list
that of Anna Dickinson against Dr.
James Oglesby, will probably be con
tinued. The attorneys for the plain
tiff, James Ferguson nnd J. A. Hodge,
of New York, propose to ask for a con
tinuance and as the trial of the case
would likely consumes the greater part
of, a week, to the exclusion of nbout
everything else, It Is not Improbable
Judge nufhlngton, for expediency sake,
will listen with favor upon the appeal
for the continuance. The counsel for
the defendant, James Wcviilnt, of Dan
ville, and A. J. Colborn, Jr., of this
city, will oppose a continuance.
PROBABLY CONTINUED.
itlipr cases likely to be continued
. io the Erie Railroad company against
William Dodge; the same against the
Kingston Coal conpany, and Margaret
Russell against the Delaware and
Hudson company, the counsel for one
party or the other in each of these
actions being engaged In the United
States circuit court of appeals.
Cases likely to be tried are Walsh
against tne Insurance company; Wal
ker against Harvey; Martin against
the Delaware nnd Hudson company,
Lavln against the Insurance company
and Wilkinson against the Delaware
and Hudson company.
Most of the cases appealing on the
district court calender, hlthertofore
printed, are secondary indictments
against parties already tried. All
that remains to ba done to dispose of
these Is to have them formally non
prossed. The Bogert case from Wilkes
Barre is to be continued. This leaves
the Illegal liquor selling case against
Simon Narushis, of this city, the only
one of local Interest to be tried.

THREW REFUSE INTO RIVER.
W. A. McConnell Charged with En
dangering Public Health.
W. A. McConnell. the South Wash
ington avenue grocer, was arraigned
before Alderman John T. Howe yes
terday, charged by Street Commis
sioner Rowland Thomas and Inspector
Robert Flynn with endangering tha
public health by dumping refuse Into
tho Lackawanna river.
The warrant was Issued nt the In
stance of Flynn, who stated In tho in
formation that ono of McConnell's em
ployes at his direction had often emp
tied Into the river decayed vegetables
and like refuse, in riuantltles sulllclent
to block up tho channel, and thereby
endangers the health of the people liv
ing in the vicinity.
After hearing the evidence tho alder
man let McConnell off easily, merely
compelling him to pay the costs of tho
case, but warned him not to repeat the
offense.
Doing Business with Uncle Sam.
The contract for carrying the malls
between Buffalo and western cities Is
held by the Lake Shoro and Michigan
Southern Railway, and It is said that
no other road In America carries any
where near as much mall matter as
does this great line. Four fast mail
trains are operated dally by the Lake
Shore Railway, and the fact that the
mail-carrying contract has been se
cured by this great-railroad for more
than 25 successive years is proof as
to the fine service given. Punctuality,
high speed and absolute safety are de
manded by Uncle Sam and the travel
ing public. You get tho moBt of alt
three when you buy your ticket via
the Lake Shoro and Michigan South
