Tl.c grialcst fault with the pricluc or Chris

as the j thould, the aiuloiny and piiIulegy

that inLompiehcu.-iblo and uuiulnpt;ota'jlo biek
of the founder of their faith.
Tho icvilt of this training -or lack of training
of their healers is that they arc not able to
dilleuntlata Ivtwcen ilwa tint aro umeniUe
to the mind-tratiuent, and those that arc not.
They take, evciythipg Hut ronii to ilieiii-lrim
the olightent to tho mo.t fciious ailment and
arply the tame treatment to all, and mturally
in mch a course, in their Ignorance of the iaet

untly onrlook and nrglect oiuo phase of tho
patient's malady which brings on fatal iin'ilts,
whereas a timely operation or proper fomi cf

With tho conscientious and pioperly educated

CRUSADE IS
CALLED OFF
Gowitu Commissioners Give Ud tlic
Idea ot Proscciitlnu Aldermen
find Justices ot the Peace.
WORK OF AGENTS
NOT SATISFACTORY
Rather Than Make a, Few Mogis
tiatcs Suffer for tho Many Who
Have Offended, the Conimissloncra
Htivo Decided to Let the Prosecu
tion Go by tho Board Witnesses
Ready to Testify Before tho Grand
July Against Two Aldermen Wore
Sent Home Other Court Matters.
.The pioseeutlon of lite nldermon and
justices of the peucu charged vlth Il
legally collecting fees Is to bo
squilchcd. The county commissioners,
who instituted It, arp not satisfied with
thu manner In which it Is being con
ducted and yesterday determined to
call it off.
The Inability of the commissioners'
detective to secure Incriminating evi
dence against more tlintt a few of the
offenders Is the primary reason of the
determination to ulloiv the crusade to
go by the board.
Tlu commissioners went Into tho
matter with the expectation that It
would be u thoiottgh and Impartial af
fair. It seems they aro not satlsiled
thai It isas such and rather than be
mixed up In something which Is ap
parently unfair they have decided to
draw out and take some other tack.
The commissioners have been com
plaining all along that the crusade was
lu danger of being turned into a "liz
zie" becauso of the fuel that only a
certain few magistrates were b.-lng
brought in, and tlu agents were urged
to exert themselves. The urging did
not have the desired effect, and after
a consultation yesterday afternoon tho
decision to call off tho prosecution was
arrived at.
Witnesses were on hand yesterday
to appear before the giand Jury In two
cases against Scranton aldermen, but
heroic the cases were reached the cotn
mlsslonerh' decision was arrived at and
the witnesses were sent home.
The Shifter Case Again.
Court granted a rule yesterday upon
Jui'ob Slilffe'.' to tliow cause why he
should nut lie ni judged guilty of con
tempt of court. Tho rule wi?s granted
upon the- petition of nullding Inspector
Ja ks'in, who contends that hlfler Is
violating the petmanent Injunction
granted by Judge Kelly restraining
him from constructing a bay window
upon the ten-foot lescrvatlon at the
corner of Kranklin avenue and Mul
berry street, where a building Is being
erected.
The ease will be argued this morning
by City .Solicitor Vosburg for tho build
ing: Inspector and Attorney C IZ. Hul
lentine for Sir. Shifter.
In the Register's Office.
The- will of David Hopkins, late of
Hansom, was probated yesterday by

Perjury Cases Not Reached.
Tho perjury cases, which niu being
prosecuted by tho Municipal league,
wore not reached yesterday by tho
grand Jury, as was expected they
would be. Whether or not they wilt
go over to the next tPrm of court has
not been decided as yet.
The- grand Jury will probably con.
tlnue in ses.-ilou until next Wednesday.
District Attorney Lewis will today ask
Judge lMw ards f( Usuu an order ex

TOOR BOARD MEETING.
Only Applications for Relief Were
Considered.
Yesterday afternoon's regular meet
ing of the poor board was entirely
f-onsumeil In listening to appeals for
aid lrom a number of persons. Mrs.
Jacob Kllman, wife of the ex-deputy
constable, who Is now serving a term
In thi penitentiary, said that she and

was too sick In do any work, Her
case was referu-d to Director Fuller

The Symptons of a Cold
and the Grip are Coincident.
Tho Grip begins with Influenza, pain
In tho head, back and chest, soreness
all over. Colds began the same way
befoio Grip was over licuid of. Grip
runs Into Pneumonia Colds have been
followed by Inflammation of the Lungs
ever sluco tho world began. Fever und
Soro Throat ara equal symptoms of
both so lu a Cough so Is Dioiicliltls.
Hither may result lu Catanh. Tho
cardinal point of difference Is the gTeat
prostration of Grip. Tho usci of "77"
will breuk up Gilp and Colds, and Its
tonicity prevents tlin prostration by

TREATMENT Oh A COLD.
Some Good Advice by a Well Known
Physician.
A veil known physician says that a
cold can bo easily treated nt Its outset,
but it ncRlccled may load to la Rrlppo
and pneumonia, lie says that tho best
home treatment for tho cuic of colds
and la Brlppe Is Krause'M Cold Cure
Capsules. Ho uses thnin almost ex
clusively In his practice as they do not
affect the head as does quinine nor up
set the stomach.
This remedy Is preparttl In soft, sol
uble Kdatlne capsules, which ate easily
dissolved by tho warmth Hnd fluids of
tho stomach. They are much prefcr
p.ble to little, buret, sugar-coated pills
or tablets that always offer objection
able resistance to assimilation.
Krause'H Cold Cure positively cures
cold In the head, cold in Ihc chest, cold
in tho throat or cold In any part of
the body, and it will prevent tho en
velopment of bronchitis or pneumonia.
It is for sale nt nil fitst-etaM druu

MUST PAY THE
LARGER FEE
COURT'S DECISION IS AGAINST
LIQUOR MEN'S CONTENTION.
Licenses This Year Will Cost 31,100
Unless tho Supreme Court Can Be
Brought to Reverso tho Local
Judges No Opinion Accompanied
tho Decision, but Ono Will Bo
Forthcoming Shortly Will Have
the Effect of Reducing the Num
ber of Licensed Drinking Places.
in tho case of M. P. Flynu osalntt
County Treasurer Scranton, brought
to test tho aueatlon of whether liquor
dealers In Scranton would pay $1,100
or o.'0 for their licenses this year, the
court yesterday decided that the 1st gov
fco will have to bu paid.
No opinion accompanied tin. decis
ion, but it wus announced by Judge
Archbald that un opinion settlnu forth
tho lino of reasoning followed It) i cach
ing this decision would bo forthcom
ing In a short time.
The liquor dealers will take the cam
to the Supiemo court, and tlnso of
them who propose to take out their
licenses, will pay the additional ir.10
j under protebt.
I As it Is highly Improbable that n.
decision can be secured from tho Su-
premo court before next Saturday,
j which is the last clay for taking out
licenses, and os It Is also quite Im
probable that the decision of tho
lower court will bo icversed, It can
bo expected that a large number of
the licenses granted a week ago will
not be taken out. Those whoso places
aro In tho suburbs, and ninny of tho
central city saloon-keepers eluclaro
that thoy cannot afford to pay the
$1,100 license und must ictire ft out
business.
