When flcon last night by a Tribune man ho said: "I am hero for the purpose of con sulting business men and others with a view to organizing a northeastern auxiliary committee to co-operate with the union committee for tho promotion of ballot reform and the merit system In Pennsylvania. The movement Is entirely non-partisan, representing tho Pennsylvania llallot Reform associa tion, which was organized In 18S9: Pennsylvania Civil Service Reform as sociation and Municipal League of Philadelphia. "Tho union committee seekB to have acts passed providing for ballot re form nnd tho general adoption of the merit syRtem In filling appointive of. flees and to have the election laws codllled. They have not been codlllod since 1839. The Pennsylvania Ballot Reform association's bill passed by the lart house and known ns the Keator bill as advocated bv tho union com mittee. It provides a simple and much smaller form of ballot, groups tho can didates under the title of ofllce for which their are named, reduces the pcicentngo of signers required to place a ticket on the ballot and has some provision for a better count. A con ference will probably be arranged to bo addrefcsed by prominent Phlladol phlans." DID MICHAEL HEHER PERISH Thought to Have Died In Flames Which Consumed His Homo. The dwelling house of Michael Hehor of 3r. Sixteenth street caught flro this morning at 2.30 o'clock and was com pletely destroyed. There Is a strong belief that Michael Holier, who Is an aged man perished In the flames. His wife, who was rescued, says that she supposed he was following her out of the building, but he could not be found anywhere about. The police and fire men were endeavoring to search tho ruins nt the hour of going to press, but the fire was Etlll too fierce. SCRANTON CARRIERS DOWNED PIttston.

One of the chief amusements of Dec oration day In PIttston was a game of base ball between tha Scranton and PIttston letter carriers, played nt the West PIttston fair grounds before sev eral hundred spectators. The Scrantonlans were downed by a score of 29 to 13. Onlv six innings were played. Although this game did not border on the professional lino, there were enough good plays to keep up the Interest. G K. Jones started In tho box for Stanton, but was knocked out In the third Inning, when tho horn" team scoied eight runs. He was replaced by Campbell, who was nlso touched up freely.

The price of meat has taken a rise of between tl and ?2 50 on the hundred pounds, ranging according to the qual ity, and local butchers are bemoaning the fact accorlngly. Practically all the meat received In town comes from the west, and must be obtained through the rroat firms controlling the markst. For the past two weeks the wholesale price has been climbing and it Is ex pected will continue ascending. The change in the wholesale rates will af fect the prices for home consumption, and the buyers will now have to pay from 1 to 3cents more per pound for veal, mutton, beef, etc. It Is expect ed that meat wil remain high until thV middle of summer. Prices on the meat have risen about as follows: Veal Jl'.OO on a hundred poundi Pork $1.60 on a hundred pounds. Poof $1.50 on a hundred pounds. Mutton $2.60 on a hundred pounds. The local dealers take the change philosophically and say that although In former years the price on meal usually dropped, for the last two years or so the price has been going up.

The association membeis have long had a wish to visit this neglon and see for themselves the modus operandi of mining anthracite conl, their stock In trade. This year this desire took a well defined form and became an nc tunl fact. Excursion rates from De troit, whore tho annual convention was held on Monday, to this city were se cured, and by contributions to the ex cursion fund fr6m several honorary members of the association, the cost wns reduced to a little more than 19 per hend, which Is certainly remark ably low. Tho party left Detroit at 12 o'clock Tuesday night on a special train on the Michigan Central railroad. Thoy nrrlved in Uuffalo at 7.30 o'clock yes terday morning and left that city at 9.30 o'clock, arriving here at 3.30 o'clock yesterday afternoon, tired and bediag glcd somewhat, but happy neverthe less. It was thought at first that they would not arrive until 10.30 o'clock last night, so that the nirangements of the board of trade reception com mittee we-e somewhat set at naught. The committee arose to the occasion, however, and several of the Individual members chartered special cars last night and took the visitors to various parts of the city. "This city Is cer tainly a revelation to rac," said one of the dealers last night. "I expected to find a dirty, sooty, dingy town, with coal, coal everywhere Irttead I find a neat, clean, bustling, up-to-date, progressive city. I can't get over it." This morning at 9.30 o'clock seventy five of the visitors will board a special train on the Lackawanna and bo taken to the Rellevuo mines and escorted through the workings of that colliery by Superintendent E. E. Loomls. At the same time another party of twen-ty-flve will be taken throuEh one of the Pennsylvania Coal company's Dun moro mines by Thomas H. Dale.

Described in a Lottor Mayor Moir Rocoived from His Sister, Mrs. J. H. Cooper. 'Mayor James Moir has Just received a most Interesting letter from his sis ter, Mrs. J. II. Cooper, who was In Colesburg, South Africa, during tho three nnd a half month'B siege of that town by the English. The mayor knew that sho was In the town and has beer kept on the anxious seat re garding her safety until he received this letter, which Is as follows: After ar was declared I wrote and told Par bara not to worry about me, as I was a Ion? way from the scit of war, and promised to write every week during the trouble. Put Instead of that wc were In the very thick of it and could not write to any one. The Potrs occupied Coles berg for three and a half months. They came tho Uth of November and left the 2sth of Feb ruiry We rented the Free State Hotel from an Uitlindcr and he is a rank rebel, so he forced me to accommodate the heads of the Doers. My husband they would not grant a pass to, so with my three little children 1 stajod here, the shot and shell bursting around us overv- day. When I look back and think of the terribls time and how we were preserved through It . wc really have a great deal to bo thank- ful for. Kruger said In one of his prnjers to his people that 'Rod would direct the shells,' and so he did, for tho people that were killed fn town were three Doers and a Kafllr girl, and the bullets were fljlng over our heads and through our windows. All day the snapping went on on the Boers' side, but it was the l.'nglish bullets that wcro coming In town. Mj neighbor and II were 6ltting on the slope In front of tho hotel when a shell burst right behind and tho bullets danced on a platform about thirty yards away In front of us and when wo got over tho surprise we found out thit the empty shell had gone through the wall of tho store. Anotlur party had one burst Inside his bed room and smash up everything. Tho largest piece of it was about the size of a slx-pmce. Another went through the roof of a store nnd struck the wall on the other side and did not explode. The day our soldiers came In I was on my lost lcasen of sugar and I had about as much meal as would bake six loaves for the hotel. I shut up for about a month and a half before tho lloers left. The morning the English came in I was csrefully hilling my sugar with my neighbor, when I heard a terrible noise and the cries of mlcs, "Come out the soldiers are coming." I threw down everything and ran out to the street and cheered like a man. The first horscmin was a clorgjman of the town. He was acting chaplain for the volunteers. He rode up and caught mo by the hand ami another took mo by the other hand, crjlng, "Oh, Mrs. Cooper, we arc so glad to see jou again." With my neighbor, Vrs. Jsckson, an English woman, I ran up the town to see our dear flag put up again and sing "Rod Save tho Queen," and I was caught by the arm and told that all the British ladies would give the soldiers a cup of tea and something to eat, so we ran home and got together what we could could, mil we had a merry time seeing all the rebels taken to prison, as they made it very warm for us. I remain, your loving sister, Mrs. J. II. Cooper. Grand Opening of Schr!ev3r's Gold Medal Photo Art exhibition, Thursday, Friday and Sat urday evening, All welcome.

FREE DELIVERY IN THE COUNTRY WILL BE ESTABLISHED VICINITY OF SCOTT. IN A. S. Eiaonhowor, of Philadelphia, n Special Agent of tho Rural De partment of tho Postofllco Is in tho City for tho Purpoao of Inves tigating tho Needs of That Vicin ity Ho Wont Ovor tho Proposed Route on Tuesday Will Make Roport co Washington. There Is a strong probability that rural free dollvetV of mall matter will In the near future be nn estab llhsed fact In that part of the county lying botween Olyphant and Scott township. A. S. Elsenhower, of Phila delphia, a special agent of tho rural free delivery department, Is now In the city relative to this matter. For the past few months a petition has been circulated among tho farmers and citizens of that part of tho county asking for the establishment of tho free delivery system. This peiltlon wnfl signed by representatives of over 100 families and after It had been en dorsed by Congressman Connell, was forwarded to the postolllce department at Washington, and Mr. Elsenhower was accoidlngly sent on to Investigate. The proposed route mentioned In the petition Is over the best roads between tho following places: Olyphant to Mlllersvlllo, past the Elakcly Poor farm to Scott township, to Grovonor, to Tompklnsvllle, returning by way of Montdnle to Green Grovo and back to Olyphant. This route Is about twenty three miles long. Agent Elsenhower drove over this entire route Tuesday In a buggy for tho purpose of thor oughly inspecting It. WILL REPORT HIS VIEWS. He will report to Washington In tho near future his views on the advisabil ity and feasibility of establishing tho system and any recommendations that he may see lit to make In the proposed route. This report will be acted upon by the postofllce department ofllclals who will decide whether or not tho system Is to be Installed. In case It should be, It will be under the Juris diction of the local postolllce, which Is the place of deposit for all the otllces hereabouts. Rural free delivery means, In brief, the delivery of mall matter once a day to that portion of the population of the country who live apart from tho cities having free delivery systems. It reaches, not only those living In small towns or villages, but the farming clement also, who live out In the open country. The special agent sent on by the de partment reports upon tho proposed route which must be. not over twenty live miles In length, and which must bo nble to reach at least 100 families. If it is decided to Install the system, a carrier Is appointed, who Is directly under the control of tho postmaster of the head office. This carrier Is paid a yearly salary of $100, which Includes horse hire, but not tolls or ferrage. This carrier receives the mall from the office from which tho start Is made and drives over his route once a day delivering it nt all the houses and places of business along the route. As It would be manifestly Impossible for him to personally visit any other house except those along tho road, the custom Is for others desiring the ad vantages of the service to erect boxes along the road at convenient points In which tho mall may be deposited. THE BOXES USED. These boxes must be of a substan tial kind and must be nble to stand tho wear and tear of the elements. Otherwise the carrier Is Instructed not to place mall In them. The car rier not only delivers but ho collects mall as well and parties desiring to have mall collected are required to display a signal so that the carrier may see it as he drives by. Tho advantages to be derived from the establishment of the system aro manifold. In the first place It In creases postal receipts, as moro let ters are written and received; it en hances the value of farm lands, In some states as high as ?5 an acre; it Improves the general condition of tho roads, as all roads must be In good shape before a route can bo estab lished; It allows the farmer to obtain better prices for his farm products, as by It he is enabled to keep In dally touch with the markets, and finally, It Hot Weather Shirts.
