THE BROTHER WON OUT. Jacob Compton Secure! Possession of His Brother's Body. Tai'nb Compton. the brother of the late Cornelius Compton, who died at the Moses Taylor hospital on Mon- ilny, stole a num'h on tho dead man's divorced wife and her son yesterday mornlnc and secured possession o the dead man's body. Throiish his attorney, K. C. New comb, be applied for and secured let ters of administration for his dead brother's estat" and upon presenting these to t'nde alter Price, the latter placed himself 1 1 Ills disposal. Claude Kdwards, son of the dead man, was considering tho advisability of having a guardian appointed yesterday and then applying for letters of adminis tration, but while he was considering, the dead man's brother was doing, and the latter came out the winner. The funeral will bo held this after noon at U.liO o'clock from Price's un dertaking establishment, on North Washington avenue, and interment will be made In family plot In tho nunmore cemetery. An Impression that might bo gained fioni tho leports In yesterday's papers that there was n question to young Kdwards claiming to being Compton's son Is on erroneous one. It was sim ply a case of where no one at hand knew him or anything about his claim. Ho Is called Kdwards, because lie lives with his mother, who assumed hoV maiden name, but he, himself, uses the name of Kdwards. He and his father were on friendly terms, nnd visited one another frequently. THE FIREMEN ARE NEARLY ALL BACK Almost All the Mines Were Started Up Some of tho Hillside Com pany's Firemen Lose Their Places. The striking stationary firemen In this valley, with very few exceptions, reported for work yesterday morning In accordance with the order issued on Monday night, and as a. consequence operations were resumed at nearly all the mines which were tin own Idle as the result of the strike. The firemen employed by the Dela waio, Lackawanna and 'Western and Delaware and Hudson companies are having no difficulty I" securing their old positions again, but at several of tho mines of tho Hillside Coal and Iron company, wheie work was resumed during the strike, the ne'w men then engaged are still retained. Chief Clerk Taylor, who Is in charge during the absence of W. W. "Inglis, tho superintendent, stated yesterday that the company proposed to stick by tho men who stuck by It during the strike, and that none of these men would be discharged. The company, he said, took back only as many of Its old men as it had places for, and these went right at work alongside the other men without complaint. The general Impression seems to pre vail In labor circles that tho strike Just ended means end of the stationary firemen's organization In this state, as far as the firemen employed at the mines Is concerned, The attitude of tho officers of the mine workers' organ ization Is taken as being Indicative of their desire to bring Into the ranks of the United Mine Workers every man employed about tho mines, In cluding both engineers and firemen, Local officers of the Mlno Workers do not hesitate to admit that as long ns the mine firemen insist on main taining a separate and Individual or ganization, they can never secure the support of tho mine workers' organiza tion, and It Is generally predicted, that the principal result of tho unsuccessful strike just ended will be tho bringing of nearly all the firemen Into the United Mlno Workers' ranks. DR. BLANOHARD'S DEATH. Discussed at Meeting of County Medical Society. At last night's meeting of the County Medbal society, the death of Dr. George A. Blanchaid was referred to and a committee, consisting of Dis. D. A. Capwell, L. C, Kennedy and .T. h, Ilea, was appointed to draft suitable resolu tions.

K. Clarke. They were Informed that Mr. Clarko was out ot the city. The federation representatives learned that Mr. Clarke was In Hoboken, and thither they betook themselves on the first t it tit. They expected to see Mr. Clarke, and possibly President Truesdale, President Dolphin, ot the telegraphers, met them In New York. Nothing was heatd here from the committee last night, ns to whether or not It saw Supetlnendent Clarke, and none of Its members had returned up to a late hour last night. NEW TRUCK HAS ARRIVED Director of Public Safety Wormser Refused to Accept It Reason for His Action. Tho hook and ladder truck built by the La France Engine company, of F.lmlra, N. Y arrived In tho city yes terday, hut Director ot Public Safety Wormser i of used to accept It. It will be remembered that after the contract for this truck, a tiro engine and some hose wns awarded It was discovered that there was some question about the legnllty of tho contracts. Measures wore Introduced In councils directing the recorder to advertise for new bids for these articles, directing him not to sign warrants for the pay ment of them, etc. To save tho city from all kinds of complications Re corder Council nntllled the various suc cessful bidders that their contracts were Illegal, and that me city wouia not expect them to live up to them. In the meantime some of the hose had arrived and was accepted, and legislation Is now before councils to make valid the tiro hose contracts. Sev eral days ago the La Franco Knglnc company notified the city officials that It was about to ship tho truck, and was told not to do so, as It would lay here at the company's expense. It was shipped, however, and when the city would not accept It yesterday It was placed In 'the Electric City stables opposite the Hook and Lidder house.

BLANCHARD Services Conducted at the Residence by Rev. James McLeod,D. D. His Touching Eulogy. If sympathy can relieve a breaking heart, then It would seem that the young wife and the lelatlves of Dr. George A. .Blanehard must have felt to some degree this comfort yesterday In the all-pervndlng grief for their sorrow, A throng of friends gathered In the pretty home, whose happiness had co soon ended, and many were the teats shed for tho man gone away In the morning of life, for the stunned and desolate bride of a year, and the aged mother and hi others. Comrades were there who had seen the young surgeon on duty during the war, and who loved and honored him for his gentleness and his unwearying service. Church asso ciates weie time who mourned slnceic ly the nobility of soul nnd purpose and the great loss to the chuich. Brother physicians wcro present who thought with sadness of the brilliant promise so blighted, and of the pleasant relation so rudely severed. A sobbing group of young people In one loom repretented a Sunday school class, In whose eyes this teacher, with his lofty aims and beautiful character, had been nn In spiration. Others who were not there could have told a tale of the sick poor tellevcd, of the time and kindly aid so freely given by the young doctor, to whom time meant much at the opening of his career. Cleigyinen of the city outsldo his denomination remembered the val ued assistance so cheerfully rendeied, and sighed as they realized that the loss was Irreparable. The looms' were tilled with flowns, which hid the casket lying in a shad owy corner. Uev. Dr. James McLeod had returned from his summer home at Kast Hampton to conduct the service, and speaking to a friend earlier In the day, be said, sorrowfully, "1 have come to a sad earth." He recited fiom the service for the dead and supplemented this- with a tribute to the departed. "Ho was a rare young man," said the speaker vtlth emotion. "Bare In his Christian life, and In Ills Ideals. He had wrought out his own way In the world, and had he lived, he would have achieved a great place in his profession. Wc can sometimes see why It Is that we must lay away a friend when age and feeble ness has overtaken him, but why this one, In the flower of his youth, must be smitten we cannot see. It is true, Indeed, that 'line we see through a glasw darkly.' 1 can see but a little way today. I feel that my place should be with the mourners. Our young friend has left a noble example to his associates In all walks of life, a beauti ful heritage to the bereaved ones whom we can only commend to the Comforter above." Chaplain Swift, of the Thirteenth regiment, who with Captain Arthur Foote was sent from the encampment to lepiescnt their organization, of which Dr. Blanehard was a member, followed with prayer. The service con cluded with a solo, "I'm but a Stranger Here, Heaven Is My Home," sweetly rendered by John T, Walking Miss Richmond noting as accompanist. The pull-bearers were. Captain Her bert B. Cox and Captain L. T. Mattes, A. C. Twltchell, Selden II. Kingsbury, H. W. Rowley and Edward Langlcy. The relatives of tho deceased present from out of the city were his mother, Mrs. K. J. Blanehard, of Hudson, N. II., and his brothers, Rev. Edward Blanehard, of Brooktleld, Mass., and Henry W. Blanehard, of Nashua, Mass. Otheifl In attendance were Captain Cox, of Lebanon; Captain Foote and Rev. W. H. Swift, of Mount Oretna; Rev. Stewart Dickson, of Philadelphia, and Rev. Spencer C. Dickson, of Point Pleasant, N. .1. Interment was made In the plot of A. W. Dickson In Dunmnre cemetery Director Piico was 111 charge of the funeral. It has been difficult for you to get COFo irr Scranton. Why?

Miss Jennie Ward, Olyphant ( Robert Campbell, Green Ridge 3 A A H Ray Buckingham, of Elmhurst, brought In the largest number of points In Tho Tribune's Educational Contest yesterday, and has materially decreased the gap between him and Garfield Anderson, who Is In fifth place. Miss Wilhelmina tliiftln also added several points to her score, and ! now but forty-eight points below second position. August Brunner, of Carbondale, nearly succeeded In get ting back In the first table, having brought lu sufficient points to tie him with Miss Pedrick, who Is eighth. The tie will probably not last long, as both are working hard. As the score stands this morning, there are three young ladles In the first table, adn but one of the contestants In this table is registered from the central city, while three are from the towns more or less distant. In Table No. 2 there are six very promising workers, and five of these reside out side of Scranton. From this It would appear that several of the winners are bound to come from suburban towns. Which town will carry off the honors? It will take nearly six weeks to decide, the question. The contest will bo open for entries until August I,, and there is plenty of time yet for ambitious young people to enter. Last year some of the win ners commenced In the closing month, and perhaps 1t will be the same this year. A contestant beginning today, with eight yearly subscribers, would go right Into tho first table.
