Ej i 1 ill iTolw t , jra I) ; WORK. YlllHBliiili lli Whfffliif 1 1 Sir H i 11 1 IBBlBiiiiPH IB M BHHHillflHH IHHHIESH Lieutenant Rav llardenbetgh, son of Senator V. B. Hardenbergh, of Honesdalc, Is having experiences in the Philippines. Chleily they are of .1 nature that he had not calculated upon when ho enlisted. For some months lie has been acting as cap tain of a detached company and one of the- honors thrust upon him since his advent In the debatable land was to wake up one morning and And him self governor of a town of bOO. More lecently It was desired that in his spring moving he should occupy Agulnnldo's house. Much presspto was brought to bear upon the vourig officer to urge him to do this, but is Agulnnldo's mother was Installed therein nnd there was no nbsolute necessity for ousting the old lady from her home, Lieutenant llardenbprgh re fused to take the ndvantago offered. In letters to his parents he expresses his loathing for the "gentle Filipino" of the poetically Inclined newspaper editorial. The Filipino lie finds to be nn individual who when he hus sur rendered and given up his arms nnd promised several kinds of rcace and love, will be around again that night with a new gun to shoot you in the back, a feat which is frequently ac complished with the American sol diers. In this Lieutenant Hardcn bergh's ideas agree with those of ev ery officer and private from this re gion who has given his impiesslons nf the new Americans ot the Pacific. Walter 'Burnham, who, with M. E. ganders, of this city, has taken hold of the base b.ill situation, is one of the best known ball managers in the country. For the past fifteen years he has been connected with teams in the Kastern, Atlantic, New England andother leagues and has invariably brought his nine either at or very near the head. Among the clubs man aged by him were the Boston Blues, Worcester, Providence, It. I., Portland, Brockton, New Haven, Augusta anl numerDus others. Together with Pat Powers, president of the Eastern lea gue, he organized the Atlantic asso ciation, and In its first year brought in the Worcester team champions. Ir the following year he was at the head of the New Haven team nnd made that city's nine the leaders of the league. Among the players he has developed are "Billy" Hamilton, the great Bos ton outfielder, who played with Mana ger Burnham's nine at Worcester In 'S8. Sheckerd, who played such a splendid game In Baltimore last sea son, was sold to the Brooklyn club by Manager Burnham, as were also Magoon, now playing short stop in Chicago, and McKnna, the young pitcher, now with Hanlon's Suporbai In Brooklyn. Mike Kelly, who played first base for Louisville last year, Da herty, who played such a fine third base for Scranton last seaEon. and Butler, the heavy-hlttlng Mnotreal catchei, were all under Manager Burnham In Augusta some ears ago. Mr. Burnham also was president of the Maine polo league and proprietor ot the Portland club, in that associa tion. P J. Murphy, who retites from the poor board .-fter the next meeting, to be succeeded by Timothy Burke, hasi a record of seventeen years continuous service without hating missed a regu lar meeting except one, when death in Ills Immediate family made it im possible for him to attend. This in it self Is an earnest of faithful service, but It was in the work outside the meeting room that Mr. Murphy made his best recoid; the one that Is writ ten in the hearts of the thousands of poor men. women and children In Dunmore boiough, whose needs he hag mlnlsU-rcd to as the agent of the char itable public during all these years. it Is said of Mi. Murphy that he never expended a dollar of 'the dis trict's money without first batlsfylng himself that it was to be expended on a deserving person. He was also al ways active in the udministtativc af fairs of the board and it is safe to say no other man has done as much as he in the work of transforming the old "poor house" into the beautiful .Hillside Home, acknowledged to be one of the finest institutions of its Kind In the countiv. Georgo W. Jenkins, who hus been appointed chairman of the First Leg islative District Itepubllcan commit tee, to succeed Dr. W. A. Paine, is one of the most untiring workers In the ranks of the Republican paity. Although he has never aspired for of fice, hl counsel is widely sought. Owing to the growth of his business during recent years, Mr. Jenkins has not permitted the party workers to encroach upon his time, and It was only after much deliberation that he consented to the appointment of the district chairmanship. He is one of the self-made, successful business men of this city and represents ono of the oldest and most prominent fam ilies in West Scranton The fact that Mr. Jenkins has taken the chairmanship of the First district committee insures an active, business like campaign, T. J. Reynolds, tho Itepubllcan candidate in that district. Is not likely to have opposition of a very serious nature, for the district Is safely Itepubllcan, but if the fight was sharp and exciting Mr. Jenkins could be depended upon to bring his man In under the wire a winner. Deputy Sheriff William Phillip?, who officiates as on of the night keepers at the county Jail, is being urged- by his friends to allow his nameto bo v.sed In connection with the Be ubll tt.n nomination for recorder of deeds. Ho is In favor with all factions of the party and would undoubtedly make 11 strong candidate if tendered the nomi nation. Mr. Phillips was appvnted by Sheriff Pryor to his present position and has filled It with great efficiency. He has won the esteem and confidence of every one In and about the county ji Ison and always has a kind word for everybody. Mr. Phillips Is a member of the West Bide Itepubllcan club, the Loyal Knights of America and several other fraternal organizations. He has for a number of years been active In work MR. AN!) MRS. KINSEY, OF KLK, MICHIGAN. Mrs. Maigarot Klnsey, Elk, Genessee county, Mich, writes to Dr. Hartman, as follows: "I nm W'ell and think I will need no more medicine I feel so well, and nil my old complaints are gone, which wore many. I often did not know which way to turn. No one knew what I suffcted. For forty-nine years I suffered but now I am cured, for which I thanK Dr. Hartman for his advice and good treatment. I keep Peruna in the house all the time and shall never be with out It. "My husband had a cough for nine years. He took Penma and it helped him. He looks quite young. He works every day and is getting fat. Ho takes Peruna three times a day. You don't know how thankful I feel toward you; I never think of you but to thank you and will do all I can for you." Mf $' H" Congressman J. H. Bankhead, of Ala bama, one of the most influential members of the House of Repre sentatives, in a letter written from Washing ton, D. C, gives his endorsement to the great ca tarrh remedy, Peruna, In the following words: "Your Peruna Is one of the best medicines I ever , tried, and no family should bo without your remarkable remedy. As Hon J.H.Bankhcad a tonic and a catarrh cure I knew of nothing better." There Is but a single medicine which is a radical specific for catarrh. It Is Peruna which has stood a half century test. It has cured thousands of cases of catarrh. Ninety times in a hundred, those who have been cured of catarrh by Peruna thought they had some oth er disease. The remedy to cure catarrh must be able to reach the mucous membrnnes, and this Is exactly what Peruna does. Peruna operates at the fountain head. Peruna produces normal, clean and vigorous mucous membranes. Catarrh cannot remain In the system If Peruna Is used according to directions. Address the Peruna Medicine Com pany, Columbus, Ohio, for a free book on catarrh. that would redound to the advantage of the party he gives his allegiance to nnd has a large following of warm, earnest friends. Mr. Phillips has not, as yet, declared his Intention of en tering the fight for the nomination, but, if he does, he may be reasonably expected to make It lively for those who oppose him.

COEUR D'ALENE INVESTIGATION MANAGER BURBRIDGE PRINCI PAL WITNESS YESTERDAY. Story of the Troubles That Have Arousd Almost World-wide In terest Dynamite Used on the Plant in 1806 The Witness Tells of Warnings of Death Presence of Military Was Essential. RIOTERS HELD FOR TRIAL. Twenty Men at Dubois Are Now Under Bail. Dubois. Ta., April 3. Twenty of the men who participated In tho rioting at Horatio mines a few days ago, were today held for trial at court. Five of them furnished ball and the other were taken to Brookvlllo Jail. The thirteen women and tho rest ot the men who were arrested were discharg ed. The situation at the workings of tho Berwlnd-Whlte company Is the same, rone of tho men returning to work. At Dubois there was a break in the ranks of tne strikers today, fifty four of them icsumlng work. The mine officials express themselves ob confident that It Is only a matter of a few moro days until they all re sumo work. The families of the mlnern are In soro straits and an organized effort is being made to relievo them by a house to house solicitation for aid. The strike leaders are unceasing In their work to prevent tho men from returning to work. AVashlngton. Apt 11 3. Frederick Bur. htidge, manaser uf the Bunker Hill and Sullivan mine, was the chief wit ness at the Coeur D'Alene investiga tion today. It was the mill of this company which was blown up in the uprising last April. Brigadier General Carlln was to have continued his tes timony on the insurrection in 1S92, but his official report of that occurrence was accepted as sufficient and he then gave way to Mr. Burbiidge. Mr. Burbridge took charge of the mine in 1S"3. At that time the miners and laborers weie paid $3 a day, as against $3 GO the union scale. There wore continual threats to ":lean out" tho Bunker Hill mire, but the tioops brought theio during tho Coxey army excitement had n calming effect. Af ter being closed for a time the Bunko. Hill was started up as a strictly non union mine. The union men had con trol, however, of the npptoachqs to the Coeur D'Alene and with arms frightened away non union men and "scabs " The mine succeeded, how ever, In manning Its plant. In lSstf, he said, dynamite was used against the mine and file did some damage to the mm. Th mine w is injured. Tlueats continued, he said, up to the time of the culmination of the agita tion last April. The Miners' union at Wardner met on Sunday, April 23, a week before the explosion, and sent a delegation to him (Burbridge) to de mand $3 50 a day all aiound. Aftr fruitless conferences ft strike was or dered. The Bunker Hill employes wer stopped on the road by an armed mob, levolvers weie nourished and the workmen weie cnased tluough the streets. Later In the day nn aimed mob took possession of the tramway of the mine nnd held It for a time. Mr. BuibiUlge paid he received fre ouent warnings that he would be killed and tho mine blown up. Representative Sulzer asked for the names of those giving the .warning. Mi. Burbiidge declined to give the names., saying it would Impel II the lives of those who gave the warnings. The Idaho courts had Uphold him, he said, In this refusal to divulge nunies. Mr. Sulzer protested hut tho com mittee, on 11 vote, ptunitted the wit ness to pioceed without disclosing names Mr. Burbridge told of the warning messages received by him, of the arm ing of SOO men, tho putting on of masks and tho details of the match on tho hill. "Wheie nre those messages?" asked Mr. Sulzer. "Blown up with the mill," replied the witness. Mr. Bui bridge said he took such pre cautions as were possible for the pro tection of the mill and then, believing that he would be an object of special attack, he left tho mill and did not see tho explosion. The witness said the presence of mili tary was essential to tho maintenance of peace, the only objections to tho military came from those who wished to break the law. Mr. Crosthwalte, of counsel for the state of Idaho, directed the examina tion and was followed by Attorney Robertson In cross-examination. This brought out that tho company dis charged men when It was learned they belonged to n union. The witness said there was such a conflict between thq union nnd non-union men that tho company took its side with the non union men, declining to employ mem bers of the union. Representative Stevens, of Minne sota, asked If this was not a violation SfP SCOTLAND HURRAH FOR SGRANTON THOUSANDS ARE NOW BUYING OF THE WOOLEN MILLS.

Veidict in Case of Man Di owned in Blast Purnace Reservoh. In the nt nitration toom of the court house jesterday aftetneon an inquest was held in the case of the unknown man whose dead body was found in the leservoli alongside of the Lacka wanna Iron and Steel company's blast furnace last Thursday afternoon. The Jutors weie D. S. Ryan, G. W. Wil liams, Timothy Burke, Patrolman Wil liam Thompson, Palmer Williams and Dr. B. S. button. Coroner Robeits explained to thn Jurots that his post-mortem ieealed the fact that death was duo to di own ing and that there weie no maiks of iolente on the body. The man had either tumbled Into the water acci dentally or thiown himself into It. De ceased was a man about 31 jeais of age, unusually laige and nppaieutly a ttamp. There was nothing on hi body that gave any clue to his ldentlt,. He had a raaur in one of his pockets, on the blade of which was scratched the woid "Hawdy" The juiors letumed the following verdict 'We, tho undet signed Juiois do find that tho unidentified deceased cfme to his death by di owning in a dam locat ed near the Lackawunna Iron and Steel company's blast furnace at Scianton, Pa,, where ho was found in the evening ot Thursday, March 29, 1900, and that ho came to his death In a manner unknown to the Jury." TOR THE NEXT GRAND JURY. Somt Infoimatlon That It Might Make Good Use of. In tho report of the grand Jury, made last Saturday, complaint was made that magistrates aro wont to place fictitious values on stolen prop erty in working up the transcript of a larceny case so that tho sum will exceed $10 and the grand Jury will bo left without any say In the disposition of the costs, tho law prescribing that in such cases the costs shall be borne by tho county. A prominent member of the Lacka wanna bar, who has an eye to the pub lic weal, said, yesterday, In comment ing on tho matter, that the Jury was misinformed regarding Its powers in this regard. Tho Jury, he said, is not compelled to accept tne magistrate's appraisement, but can place its own value on the property, nnd if In its opinion It is worth less than $10 can amend the transcript nndr act accord ingly. Fully one-third of the cases which come befoie the gisnd Jury, he said, nre purely fictitious and designated solely to pllfei costs from the county. It remains with the grand Juiy to correct the evil, as far as this can bo done, until the legislatuie finds time to take Up nnd ieIse the laws governing till' much-abused system1 of dealing with transcripts His idea would be to make the coun ty liable for co3ts only in cases ot the higher felonies and piovidb. that mag Istiate be salaried Instead of feed, us at piesent.
