DOCTORS AND EDGE TOOLS President of the Homeopnthists De clares for Less Carving nnd More Curing Appendicitis n Fad. At the nnnual meeting ot tho Home opathic Medical Soelety or Xorth (astern Pennsylvania, hold last even ing at the Speedway hotel on the boule vard, the retiring president, Dr. J. A. Hu lard, of Philadelphia, delivered an nddress. In which he said some very cutting things about thp allopaths. After explaining that with tho aid of n little list containing the names of a few choice remedies and the different diseases for which they are prescribed by allopathic physicians, a frock cont, n. silk hat nnd a pair of spectacles, the ordinary layman could become the peer of an allopathlst, the doctor made ic ii'iiiuiks on uio prevailing fad of operating for appendicitis. "Tho fashion of opening the ab domen, for Instance," said he, "and cutting off the poor little appendix, for tho cure of stomachache, Is an ex ample of what I mean. While this fad exists no one but those under home opathic treatment, or those who are poor and Industrious, can have a rea sonable hope to escape the knife. "From the cradle to the grave Its victims are counted by hundreds. Do not be tempted, I beg of you. either by tho glitter of the fee or bv the adver tisement. I claim that It Is both dis honest and unprofessional to expose your patient to needless danger and expense, no matter how brilliant th" cutting, or how considerable the 'wad.' The best obtainable statistics show conclusively that of all repotted cases of operations for appendicitis, ninety per cent, weie cleaily unnecessary, and tho other ten per cent, doubtful only. "Then, why, I nm asked. Is the oper ation so pievalent, especially of late? My reply Is, fashion, fear nnd greed. A pertinent question aske 1 a loral sur geon not long ago. was: 'Doctor, what do you usually, find in tho nppenlec tomjs you so frequently perfounV to which, nftcr a moment' silence, ho slowly replied, 'Oh, most anything from J.'iO up.

NOTABLE RESULTS. What the Conservatory Offers for Next Year. The results in the use of tho Fnelten system of teaching piano at the Scran ton Conservatory of Music this year have excedeed the most sanguine ex pectations. Witness, the many sue cessful public recitals which have been given. While being the most inspiring nnd musically educative system ever devised, the Faelten method Is, at the same time, the least expensive. Where ten pupils can nfford a first class teacher under the old sytem, one hun dred can afford Instruction under the Faelten sytem and bo better taught In the bargain; Your address on a pos tal will secure the Conservatory book let, "Piano Lessons," which tells about the courses next year nt prices (note them) ranging from thirty dollars per year, with two hour lessons per week, to one hundred and twenty dollars per year, with six hour lessons per week.

TWO LICENSES ONLY SUFFER ASSAULT REVOCATION RULE CONTINUED IN ALL OTHER CASES. Men.'s Union Would Not Consent to a Continuanco in the Cases of P. F. Moran and T. F. Clark Seeing That Revocation Was Inevitable, tha Attorneys for Theso Two Par ties Sought to Haye the Licenses Transferred, but In Vain Deputy Constable Ellman Removed. As foreshadowed In The Tribune, the rules for the revocation of liquor licenses were yesterday contlnued.wlth two exceptions, those In the cases of P. F. Moran, of the Opera Cafe, Spruce street, and Thomas F. Clark, of tho Lyceum Cafe, Wyoming avenue, com monly called the "Sour Pickle." The representatives of the Men's union would give no quarter In these two cases. Moran, It was alleged, was selling liquor on Sunday right along, refused to desist when wnrned, nnd attempted to assault Agent Ilobert Wilson. Attorney Clarence Unlcntlne wanted court to transfer the license to Thomas F. lloche. Court took the peti tion under consideration, but Intimated strongly that If Mr. lloche got the license It would be as a new applicant. The testimony against Moran was given by the unions regular agents, Robert Wilson, George West and James Held. Sundny, May 20, was the date they made their visit. In tho CInrk case, nn effort was made by Attorney George S. Horn to have the rule continued to give the landlord, Mrs. McIIugh-Hand, an op portunity to have the license trans ferred to her. Court said no, and said It with emphasis. I.attlmer Keese and Frank Astrlngcr gave the testimony against Clark. They said they were there on a Sun day, bought drink, saw a large crowd there drinking and carousing, and that tho place, was a common resort for lewd women. Evidence wns also of fered to show that liquor was sold there only last Sundny. The rule in the Francis Hafller case was continued only after some special agreement was reached. In the other sixteen cases the con tinuances were granted with the under standing, ns explained nt length In yes terday's Tribune, that the proprietors will not only obey the law themselves, but use their honest and best endeav ors to compel others to do likewise. A close watch will be kept on these places, and the slightest offense will result In the rule being called up for a hearing. Division of Mooslc Borough. Court yesterday granted a peremp tory mandamus directing Street Com missioner Holand D. Thomas to grant a permit to Mrs. II. C. Mott to con nect her ptoperty on Main avenue with the" city sewer. This Is the end of a dispute that has been hnnglng lire for eleven years. Under the ordinance the street com missioner is directed to refuse a per mit te any party not having tho as sessment paid. Mrs. Mott had seven lots and paid $1,300 In assessments. Five years ago she connected one of her properties with the sewer, and last year she proceeded to connect an other, but wns forbidden by the com missioner, on the ground that her as sessment had not been nil paid. The case was arbitrated and It was decide 1 that Mrs. Mott still owed $."0. She settled this and renewed her ap plication for a permit. It was refused and she went Into court 'to secure a. mandamus. Attorney W. J. Hind, who repre sented the relator, attacked the clause of oidlnance piovldlng for tho with holding of the permit until the as sessment was paid, on the ground that It attempted to create a new and drasl le method of collecting taxes. The he&rlng of the ci.se of H. M. Wlnltin, iidmlnlsti.Uor, ct nl., against the Delaware. Lackawanna and West ern Itallroad companv, was begun, but had to continued, owing to the fact that It was seen It could not be lln Ished at noon, when Judge Archbald would vetlie from the bench to go to Huffalo to attend a funeral. Court adjourned at 3.30 o'clock to meet again Monday, August 13. In Argument Court. George 10. Stevenson, John P. Thom us nnd John H. Hcnner, the commis sioner.! appointed to report a division of Mooslc borough Into wards, yes terday submitted their report, and It was confirmed conditionally by court. They lecoinineud four wards. The first ard is bounded by n line ex tending along .Mill creek nnd the Lack awanna river, Third street to Spring brook, anl thence along the Delaware and Hudson road to tho Luzerne county ilne, end thence the boundary extends nlong tho Delaware nnd Hud son io.nl, Spring brook as far as the M. CilppiMi estate, thence along the Jersey Pe nlral road to Spring brook and nlong the biook to the Luzerne county line. The remaining portion of the bor ough Is mode the Third and Fourth wards, with Oak Hill lane) dividing them. The Greenwood end of the. bor ough Is the Fourth wnrel, and the ter ilttiry between Greenwood and Moosle village comprises the Third ward. Attorney John M. Ilnrrls, solicitor for the borough. Is pieparlng n decree for the ward elections. These will be so arranged that two councllmen nnd two school controllers from each ward will succeed tho present board of seven and councils, ns fast as the terms of the Incumbents expire. Secessionists Are Defeated. The project to annex to Taylor bor ough tho villages of Pyne, Archbald and tho other small settlements of Lackawanna township adjacent to Taylor, was yesterday halted by the action of court In quashing the pro ceedlngs by reason of Insufllclency of notice.

Theme 732. Prompt delhcry, The presentation was made May 7, ns had been arranged for by the attor neys for tho petitioners. The township solicitor, M. J. Dona hoe, and Attorney W. J. Hnnd, repre senting certain property holders, ex cepted to tho sufficiency of the notlco on this nnd other grounds, nnd when tho matter came up for hearing, yes terday, court sustained their excep tions. Prior to the passage of tho Act of 1895, the appearance of tho parties was taken to be n wnlver of any Insufllcl ency of notice. In the Pyno borough case, Judge Archbald, Interpreting this feature of tho net for the first time, held that any Insufllclency of notice was fatal to tho application, and could not be cured by the appearance of tho parties sought to be notified. In pri vate civil proceedings this rule might prevail, but In a public affair, such as the Incorporation of a borough, the ap pearance of the respondent parties could not bo rightly construed by court to amount to a waiver. This position was widely nt variance with all previous rulings, and theie was much speculation as to whether or not It would stand. That speculation, however, Is now at rest. In the Lin ton borough case the Superior court recently made n similar decision, and Its finding was based on the same line of reasoning pursued by Judge Arch bald, whose decision wns mnlnly relied upon by the successful parties In their appeal. Deputy Constable Removed. Jacob Ellman, deputy constable of the Seventh ward, was yesterday re moved by court, It having been shown In proceedings brought by Constable James AV. Clark, of the Eighteenth ward, that Ellman Is not a resident of the Seventh ward, for which he was appointed. Ellman brought on the enmity of his fellow-sleuth by reason of the fact that he went Into Clark's bailiwick and sup planted the gentleman from the Eigh teenth In the good graces of Alderman Kelly.

This means that the directions of the will are to be observed and the Irish cousins are not to come in for the residuary estate. FIRED INTO A CROWD. Bloodless Encounter Between Messrs. Priester and Ringgold's Band. George and Martin Priester were prisoners In police court yesterday morning and nrralgned before Mayor Molr, accused of drunkenness and dis charging firearms. The two men -were arrested early yesterday morning by Patrolmen Ross and Haggerty on Adams avenue. They met a numbor of the members of Ring gold bnnd, of South Scranton. A quar rel ensued, and George Priester sud denly drew a revolver and fired four, shots, none of which, luckily, took effect. ' The angry musicians then closed on the pair, with cries of "Lynch 'em!" and had It not been for tho urrlval of tho two patrolmen it would have fared 111 with them. The police drove tho crowd back, by a liberal application of their batons, and removed the two men to the Center street police station. Mayor Molr fined George Priester J10 and discharged Martin.

Annual Exorcises Attendant Upon tho Commencement of the Training School for Nurses of the Lacka wanna Hospital Conducted Last Night Addresses Were Made by Judgo H. M. Edwards nnd Dr. J. L. Ren Diplomas Were Presented by President J. T. Dickson, of the Board of Directors. For the sixth time In Its history tho training school connected with the Lnckawanna hospital last night sent out a class of bright, earnest and thor oughly trained young women, who have chosen as their life work one of the noblest of all professions, tho nurs ing of the sick. The class graduated last night consists of six young women, Miss Mary Agnes Doherty, Miss Emily Katherlne Gamewell, Miss Elizabeth Ely, Miss Carrie Olive Crlssman, Miss Julia Agnes Twarowskl and Miss Hose Katherlne Stelnmetz. The exercises were conducted In the beautiful auditorium of St. Luke's Par ish house. The bright and cheery looking stago was prettily decorated with llowers and potted palms, and presented a delightful appearance. Di rectly In front of the stage was seated the entire nursing force of the hospital, the members of the graduating class occupying the front row. OPENING ritAYER. The exercises were opened by prayer by Itev Rogers Israel, D. D., rector of St. Luke's. J. P. Dickson, president of the hospital, who presided during tho evening, then Introduced Judge II. M. Edwards, who made one of his usual witty nnd clever addresses. He dwelt In particular upon the place and advantages of the hospital In a com munity and emphasized tho fact that the people of Scranton do not do their duty towards the Lackawanna hospi tal. "The legislature of this state," said he, "must be taught to economize on expenditures which can stand economy and not pinch so that the charitable In stitutions will be made to suffer. There are two things In Pennsylvania which must be taken enre of above nil others and those are the common schools and the charitable Institutions." In concluding he nddressed the grad uates and congratulated them on the showing made. "Yours," said he, "Is a gospel of servitude and n gospel of patience, and not a gospel of words." Dr. Jnmcs L. Rea, one of the mem bers of the staff, was the next speaker, nnd, though the doctor remarked that he felt a little shakv and that like Marc Anthony, he was no orator, nev ertheless he made a most hapny little address In a rather eiualnt manner. He urged the nurses to studv so '-hat they could get above the crowd and not lag at the bottom. DR. RKAS ADVICE. "You'll not find It a bit crowded up there," said he. "He practical, for prac tical talent Is the only substantial basis for any profession. Be optimistic. Look at things brightly, and If tliete's no light side, polish up the dark side. Don't depend upon the Influence and pull of your friends to get along, for no nurse ever succeeded by the3o means. Keep your moral tone high, the higher the better, nnd, above all else, cultivate dose mouths." Before presenting the dlplomas.Presi dent Dlcl'son made a statement, tend ing to offset the adverse criticism ot the debt which is now standing against the hospital. Ho explained that th- state appropriation was only $15,000 this year, leaving $S,000 to be raised from local sources. The present debt of $19,000 has been created In several ways. Part of It accrues from the fact that $7,500 was paid for a nurses' home and Jl.fiOO for furnishing It. In the course of a statement of tho enormous expense under which the hospital Is laboring, Mr. Dickson men tioned the fact that the Scranton (las nnd Water company recently placed n water meter In the Institution, thereby raising the water rent from $10 to $10 a month on a jump. In concluding, he paid a graceful tribute to Mrs. E. N. Wlllard, whom he spoke of as the guiding angel of the hospital. "There Is never n day," ho stated, "whether tho weather Is good or bad, when this noble woman Is not at the hospital, cheeilng up the suf fering "ones. Some days she brings flowers, some days dainty eatables, and on all days something." He then presented the members of the graduating class with their diplo mas and badges, after which nn In formal reception was held, during the course of which dainty refreshments were served. THE BOMA BALLOT MACHINE. Voting Apparatus on Exhibition in Attorney Edgar's Office. John ISu.tui, Inventor or the ltonsa ballot machine, arrived In the city yes terday with his invention, and had it on exhibition In the olllee of Attorney S. W. Edgar. In the Mears building:. The machine weighs 300 pounds, and Is four feet three Inches high and three feet three Inches broad, supported on legs, the top being six feet from the floor. It Is surrounded by curtains, which, when the door of the machine is closed, form a permanent booth. The machine Is made of brass and Is In a cabinet of quartered oak. When a voter enters the booth he opens tho door of tho machine and Is confronted by a key-plate, which Is the complete "Australian ballot," In tho upper part of the machine over each lever Is the party emblem. Fol lowing down Is a succession of simile candidate levers, tho name of each candidate belnt; printed on a ticket at the lever. It li first necessary to- pull down the party lever, and If It Is desired to vote tho straight ticket this will regis ter the complete vote. If It Is desired to split the ticket, however, the In dividual levers In addition are pulled down. Tho entire left vertical column Is a row of Irregulars, and the man wishing to cast his vote for some person not nominated receives a ticket, upon which ho writes tho name. Ho then pulls a lever, which opens a slot on the left, and Inserts the ticket. When the door Is closed tho ticket drops' Into a drawer. After n voter has completed his vote, on leaving the booth he closes the machine door, which returns tho me chanism to Its first position and makes It ready for the next voter. On the outside nf the machine Is a counter, which records the number of .vvwywwwwvwvwy i We Sell Dinner Sets ;55 And we sell lots of them.
