"CAPITOL" OF
WAYMART FALLS
Iho Illicit Saloon Near Lake Lodore
Raided and Contents Confiicatod
by Acting County Detective Ed
ward Neary Tim Brady, the
Keeper, and Companions Take to
the Woods.
The village of Waymart. which was
ptlrrcd as never hefore a few weeks
ago. when the dead body of Ldwln
Fchoonovcr was found, was agitated
ataln yesterday, though this disturb
fince was less seveie. but marked by
more excitement. when Constable
Kdward Neary, of this city, who Is
acting county detective of Wayne
county, brought about the downfall
of the 'Capitol of Wnymnit"
The "Capltol of Waymait." as It
has been styled, was an illicit saloon,
the reputed owner of which was one
Tim Biady, not from the confines of
Wnymait, but who halls from some of
the big cities. Hrady selected the
spot on which the "capltol" stood to
carry on his illegal tr.ifllc became he
believed the residents In that lclnlty
were. In the cxpiesslve language of
"Chuck" Conuois. "oay uiaiks." The
place was Just outside the limits of
the glove at Lake Lorloie. and Hracly
sized It up as a "cinch" to catch the
thirsty ciowd that might accompany
an exclusion which would not dispone
of any able-bodied lefreshments on
the picnic giouuds. nut Brady made
an trior of iudciue.it. both as to tile
Idea of the "easiness" of the "inmks"
that ho thought weie about Waymart
Mild the belief that he could conduct
the unlicensed place with Impunity
He did not reckon on the fact that one
Lafayette Smith abided In Wavmart
and that Lafayette was the village
policeman, a pood and pioper man
when it came to enfotcing the law. It
might be said as e.planatoi, that
Lafayette pionuunccs the flist syla
ble of his name as Lay Layfayette
Mnith a clicunistiiuie that he will
remind vou of. should you make the
rnor of saying La-fayette
Laf.'yette. as "Chuck" Connois
would say fuitlier. "got next" to the
fact that the "capltol" was doing a
flout Ishlng business. Thh was on
Wednesday, and when h was suie of
his ground, he took means to suppress
the business and e.ul the caicer of
tlie "capltol." He notilled Acting
County Detective Neary. who went
to Wnmart yeMeida morning on
the Hist Main that would take him
there. Policeman Lafayette was on
hand to meet him and guide him to
the scene of the active speakeasy.
Secretive as was Lafaette and as cli
rumspoet a1! he showed himself to be
in approaching the work of extinc
tion the news leaked out that he was
on the trail of too pioprletor of the
"capltol," and when the pair reached
the one-Mery hotel, no one was within,
but ill the distance could be seen four
oi five pilrs of nimble tret, 'loping
f.iior thi. Hold. to the lofuge which
th woo'ls oifered to the flying men.
Detective Neaiv nor Policeman
IilfViy etto did not follow the chase, for
th" imsoii that the leaders of the
wild i it ii had too rcteat a lead; but
they devoted tliemelpi to completing
the hst chapter of the i.neer of the
"capltol."
The "capltol." as stated before, is a
one-ftory building. Over the doorway
Is the sign that caught the passing
eye, while over one window the humor
of the Joker of the party was ex
pressed In the word "bed-room" ami
over another In the word "wash
irom." Inside their was a counter
lhat contrived to do duly as a bar,
hut thrie was no fancy glassware or
decanters "wisely kept for show."
There wete beer kegs, plenty of them,
hut thev were mostly empty. There
were whiskey tasks a few and a num
ber of hexes of clgais. Outside beer
birrels wcie heaped on each other,
evidence of the thriving business that
made the "capltol" flourish during Its
bilef but profitable existence.
The ofllcers thought that possibly
the "propiletoi ' and his associates
would hae more respect and fear for
the United States revenue laws, even
if they did laugh defiance at the local
authorities, but though the place was
carefully searched, no revenue license
rpnlrhe found either for the sale of
rfejuor or cigars. This fact was borne
In mind by County Detective Neary,
who fa acquainted the deputy United
States marshal nt Scranton.
The contents of the hotel were con
fiscated and taken to Hoiipsdale. In
the meantime, Dlstilct Attorney At
kinson, of Wayne county will prepare
evidence against the panics charged
with running the place and Indict
ments against them will be presented
at the next grand Jury at Hnncsdalc.
The downfall of the "capltol" Is n
big feather In the cap of Policeman
Smith, who always endeavors to ful
fill the. duties of the oiflce which he
has sworn to seivo with fidelity.

DISASTROUS EARLY
MORNING BLAZE
Fire Reduces Home of Michael Hon

Blnzo Accidontly Caused by Hon
nessy in His Moping About the
House While Intoxicated.
Theie was an eaily morning fire on
the West Side yesteiday morning that
reduced the dwelling of Michael Hen
nessy. on Scott Mi cot, to a heap of
charred timber.
The lite started In a closet which was
llllecl with clothing and whcie Hen
nessy supposed the tobacco he was in
seaich of was Incited,. The dresses of
light mateii.il blazed up quickly and
in n few minutes the loom was like a
blazing furnace. Owing to the ugly
humor and thieat.s made by Hcnnes.sy
in his drunken auger, the family could
not get iicai to the loom to extln-cill-li
the blaze, which smead to the
'sitting room in ft out. Finally a few
paiuuis oi water wcie iniowu on me
llames. which, subdued for a minute,
bioke out again and mined the effects
of one loom befoie put out by means
of a gaiden hose. Uuiliig the excite
ment an ahum was turned In fiom
box 42, the Columbian lespondlug. The
lire seemed to be extinguished when
the company i cached the scene, and
Chief McNulty, nfter an Investigation,
sent In the taps for "out." The chief
and the ho company lemaiued for a
half hour to be in readiness in case the
blaze broke out again. At the end of
the half hour there was no sign of file,
though the ioon weio tilled with
thick smoke. The hose company then
ictuincd to Its riuai ters,
About 5 o'clock John Devlne, the
merchant, who lives next to the Hen
nessy house, was awakened by the
cuu'kllig of hurnSng timber. When
he dressed and leached the outside tlio
dwelling was lapldly being consumed
by llames. He rang in another alarm,
but by the- time the Columblas re
sponded the hou-e was destioyed. The
stoie of Devlne was slightly scorched
by the flames and but for the timely
awakening of Mr. Devlne the chances
are that his family would have had
,., . . - .
a narrow escape.

NO strong man ever had a "weak" stomach. Strength comes
from food properly digested and perfectly assimilated. When
the stomach is " weak " food is imperfectly digested, and the
nutriment provided for the body is insufficient to supply the daily losses
of the body by the waste and wear of its tissues. Hence, as the stom-
ach and allied organs of digestion and nutrition grow weaker, there is '
a daily overdraft charged up against the health account of the body. '
'I he saying that "Uhe way to a man's heart is through his
stomach " has a scientific application. Not only the way to a man's!
heart, but to his lungs, liver, kidneys, and every other organ, is,
tnrougn lits stomacn. All physical life is sustained by food. But food
sustains life only when it is chemically changed in the digestive pro
cesses so that it furnishes an assimilable aliment for the body. Coal
warms us only by combustion. Food feeds us only by digestion. It
would be as reasonable to fill the pockets with coal and expect to be
warmed by it without combustion, as it js to fill the stomach with food
and expectto get strong by it, without digestion.
Blood, the vital fluid, depends for its vitality on food. Heart,
lungs, liver, kidneys, nerves, all depend on the purity and richness of
I v'tJi njl"ilFMriBSSsv?Xt

(& WW vH
One of the first signs of failing health is loss of appetite. The
first thing that " Golden Medical Discovery " does is to restore the nor
mal appetite for food. But it would be of no use to do this unless it
did more. Usually when the stomach ceases to crave food it is because
there is an inadequate secretion of the digestive juices. To force food
on the stomach in that condition is only to clog it. It can't convert
the food into nutriment. It is essential, therefore, that with the re
stored appetite "Golden Medical Discovery" should restore the diges
tive and assimilative powers. That is just what it does. It stimulates
the flow of the digestive juices, increases the activity of the blood
making glands, cleanses the clogged channels, and enables the renewed
organs to pour a flood of pure, bright blood through every vein and
artery of the body. That is perfect health.
Fix the fact firmly in the mind that food properly digested and
perfectly assimilated is the only known source of vital strength and
vigor, and there will be no difficulty in understanding why the cures
by Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery include among other
maladies the cure of "weak lungs."
One of the prominent signs of consumption is emaciation. In
deed, the very name "consumption" means a consuming of tissues.
But the tissues of the body are being consumed every hour of every
day without detriment to health. What is there in this other con
sumption which makes it so fatal ? There is this ; In health the tissues
consumed daily are built up again by food. In disease the tissues con
sumed are not built up again by food. Hence, the emaciation of con
sumption. What's to be done? Use fish oils and invalid foods ? But
these are foods too. They recognize that if strength comes back to the
weak lungs it must be by food, but they ignore the fact that the
"weak" stomach must be strong before it can digest the food which
is to give strength to "weak lungs." This treatment attempts to bring
the character of the food down to the level of the weak stomach.
"Golden Medical Discovery " brings the strength of the stomach
up to the food. It puts the stomach and allied organs of digestion and
nutrition in the condition which permits the building1 of the body and
the nourishment of its organs in the only way known to Nature or to
science by food, properly digested and perfectly assimilated ; food

And the blood-supply depends
upon the health and activity of
tile stomach and other, organs
of digestion and nutrition.
The cures of diseases of heart,
lungs, liver, kidneys, nerves,
etc., by the use of Dr. Pierce's
Golden Medical -Discovery, arc
all attributable to this one fact ;
it is a medicine which cures dis
eases of the stomach and organs
of digestion and nutrition per
fectly and permanently. It is
not a ' ' cure-all. " It cures many
forms of disease because many
forms of disease have their ori
gin in weakness or disease of
the stomach. It cures diseases
which seem remote from the
stomach because diseases which
have their origin in the stomach
are cured
through the
stomach.

"I was a sufferer from tornld liver for
over a year," writes Mrs. Nora Willis, of
Whcatfield, Jasper Co., Ind., "and could
not sleep, nor cat but very little, and
then it would cause me great distress. I
tried several doctors but got no relief.

advising me to take his 'Golden Med

Pellets.' I only took three bottles of
the 'Golden Medical Discovery' and
two vials of the ' Pellets,' and 1 am as
well as ever in my life,"
Dr. Pierce's Pleasant
Pellets have won the fa
vor of the family, as a
reliable laxative medi
cine for all ages and un

Miss Sallic Pogan, of Rich (Rich Hill),
Spartanburg Co., S. C, writes: "About
nine jears ago I was taken with what our
best phjsicians called neuralgia and en
largement of the heart, and indigestion.
I suffered untold agony in both mmd and
body; my stomach would not retain anv
kind of food. I spent about f 25.00 with
our doctor but grew worse all the time.
WFmff At last, a friend
"t" advised me to
STOMACH w rite Dr. Pierce.
AND I did so and he
take his 'Gold
en Medical Discovery' and 'Favorite
Prescription.' I began using these as
directed. In a few days I was better.
I have taken four bottles each of the
'Golden Medical Discovery' and 'Fa
vorite Prescription ' and two ials of
Tleasant Pellets' and I am a well
woman to-day. Can eat anvthinc and
work hard all day and can sleep as
sweetly as a Daoy."
