Rails Warped by the Sun.
The Scranton Hallway company are
repairing their road-bed between Bull's
head and Court street, preparatory to
the paving operations now under way,
and, while the rails were exposed to
the &un on Monday, several lengths
wore wurped In such a manner that It
was almost Impossible to run the cars
over them.
It is a peculiar fact that it the rails
are exposed any length of time the
sun's heut will draw them all out of
shape and lender them useless when
charged with electricity. It Is also a
notable fact that the rails are seldom
connected when laid If the steel is
heated by the htin, as they do not re
main In their proper position.
The defect was lemcdied yesterday
and the construction work Is being
pushed rapidly.
This and That.
A large addition is being erected to
the Bliss silk mill at Priceburg.
The Lackawanna passenger traffic Is
on the Increase, all of the out-going
trains being heavily loaded each day.
A mine car fell down the Storrs shaft
yesterday 400 feet and was smashed
into kindling wood. No one was in
jured. The Cimtlnpntiil colliery of the Dela
waie, Lackawanna and Western com
pany will resume operations today aft

' The officials of the Lackawanna rail
road will hold a conference In New
York tomonow to dls-cuss the proposed
summer schedule of trains. Superin
tendents Daly and Salisbuty will at

beeri ordered by the Scranton Hall
way company are expected hero next
month. They will be equipped with
air brakes similar to those now In use

General Superintendent K. G. litis
sell, of tho Lackawanna railroad, will
return to New York this evening from

FINE NEW CLUB HOUSE.
It Is to Be Erected for the Use of
the Members of the Green
Ridge Wheelmen.
The Giccn Midge Wheelmen's club,
after somi1 r it lis of coiiHldeuitlon,
recently dec UW to build a club liouce,
and It Is likely that work on the build
ing will bo started in the early part
of next month. Aichltect K. II. Davis,
(i member of tho club, is at work on
tlie plans, which are now almost com
pleted. The club house will be erected on
'the 1C00 block of "Wyoming avenue, in
Green Itldge, two or three lots from
No. 28 school and on tho same side.
Tho plans will bo finished ii) a few
days and contractois' bids will then
be advertised for. The building, when
complete, will present a handsome ap
peatance. Tho mateiials used In the
construction of the edifice will be stone
nnd wood, and the club house will be
about 10j feet long by 40 wide. It
will consist of a basement and three
floors.
In the basement there will be a fine
ly equipped gymnasium, rooms for the
bicycles of the niembeis, shower baths,
and bowling nlleys.
On the first lloor the social side of
the club will bo well looked after by
the building of a handsome ball loom
and reception parlors. On the second
lloor there will be a large dining room,
a reading room, card rooms and
rooms Jltted with billiard and pool
tables. The fourth floor will be de
voted to the use of tho club stewaid.
This club has a membership of one
hundred and twenty-five .and in the
past few years has attained great
prominence botli In the athletic and
social life of the city. Tho need of a
club house of its own has been great
ly felt by the members and It was
decided somo time ago fo build one,
delay In the preparing of tho plans
being tho only thing which prevented
work on It from stalling several
weeks ago.
The committee In charge of the
building of the club house Is made up
of ('. H. Pond, J. D. Williams. B. T.
Jayne, A. G. Thomason, C. M. r.irr,

fatal to his case, Mr. Scragg held as

F. J. DICKERT'S ANSWER.
Explains Thnt John J. Murphy Was
Not Legally Elected.
Tho answer of F. J. Diekcrt in the
poor board quo warranto proceeding's
was Hied Monday by Attorney John
F. Scragg. It deals almost exclusively
with the contention that tho relator,
John J, Murphy, waa not, and could
not, have been legally elected In 1899
from the old South ward.
It Is shown how tho Eleventh,
Twelfth, Nineteenth and Twentieth
wards, in which Mr. Murphy received
his votes. Is not the same territory as
that embraced within the boundaries
of tho old South ward; that the Elev
enth ward was not a portion of the old
South ward In 1S99, having been trans
fened years aco to the Middle ward,

and that the rest of the old South ward
Is so changed territorially that It Is
Impossible to hold a legal 'election
therein.
It was atso maintained that Mr.
Murphy has never qualified himself,
and never can qualify himself, under
tho act by virtue of which he claim
election, as that act specifies that "the
votes shall be taken to tho Wyoming
house nnd there counted," etc., all of
which Is a physical Impossibility, be
cause of the non-existence of tho Wyo
ming house.
The answer comprises ten pages of
typewritten matter.
Tho nexf step will be a rep-tlon, or
demurrer, by the relator. If It Is tie
murred to, the case will go" on the
argument list. If a Replication Is filed,
the'partles will bo called upon to choose
between a trial by Jury or by a Judge
without a Jury.

S3yspegssis3 20 Years

Elsa Caused Dlatross.
" I havo derived so much benefit
from Hood's Snrsaparilla, after having
been a sufferer for more than 20 years
from a bad stomach trouble, that I
would like to tell about. For years I
was obliged to live on stale bread and
the juice of beefsteak. I had a great
deal of inflammation and gastric
trouble and was twice at death's door.
A friend told me of Hood's Sarsapa
rilla and I decided to try a bottle. I
derived so much benefit from it that I
got three more, and after taking them
felt that I was entirely cured. I am
now 86 years old and enjoy excellent
health for one of my years, but every
spring I take a bottle of Hood's so
that Ktnay feel strong and well during
the summer, and I recommend it to
anyone who suffers from dyspepsia
or'indigostion." Mrs. A. G. Marson,
12 Mason Street, Salem, Mass.
All Run Down -Torpid Liver.
" Every spring I suffer from torpid
livor and the debilitating influence
of the change from cold to warmer
weather. Last spring found me un
usually run down, having nursed
four of my children, unassisted,
through a siege of scarlet fever. I
took Hood's Sarsaparilla and passed
through the trying months without
any inconvenience whatever. I be
lieve for persons having an inactive
liver ami poor blood Hood's Sarsapa
is a good medicine." Mrs. E. B.
Gross, Findlay, Ohio.
It is because Hood's Sarsaparilla is
Peculiar to Itself that it effects such
remarkable cures. Try it.
