AT THE HOSPITAL.
Several Patients Beceived nnd One
Discharged Brnkeninn Humphrey
Improving.
l'ntriek llenloy, of the West Side,
Who wan obliged on Saturday to submit
to tliu loss of one eye in :in operation
nt Emergency hospital. In order to pre
serve this other, is improving. The in
dications nre most favorable, and the
danger to thn other eye Hint was ap
prehended when the afllietcd eye was nt
its worst stage is now removed.
lCdward Burke, of Pike street, the
young man who slipped on an icy side
walk a few days ago, lias been removed
to the hospital and is pelting along
well.
it will be good news to the friends of
young William I'riestley, or Rtrkett
street, to learn that his leu will not
have to be amputated. lie was a driver
hoy at the "Wilson Creek mine and had
Ills foot badly squeezed while riding1 on
a "bob-tail" engine, near the mine.
Subsequently he was removed to the
lospital, where the ley was placed in a
piaster cast. This expedient availed,
and while Priestly will spend point
time as a hospital patient, he will have
iho use of bis limb.
Jacob Humphrey, or Cadosla, the On
tario and Western brakeman, who bad
uch ti narrow escape from death in the
wreck in the yard here, several weeks
nfio, continues to Improve and the staff
nt. the hospital is correspondingly
'lated, as his condition was almost
hopeless when he was admitted lor
treatment. He was in an almost dying
'ondltion and had to suffer the ampli
ation of one leg-, just below the knee,
lie was greatly run down, and despite
'.lie heroics work of the staff, imfavor
vble indications increased each day.
null it was feared that either the le
.ould have to bo amputated at the hip
or be would die from septic poisoning.
About a week ago an unexpected,
1 hough hoped for, ebunge for the better
was manifested. Since then Humphrey
bus shown signs each day of increasing
vitality and now the prospects are
bright for his recovery.
AFTER THE STORM.
Local Railroad Trnfflc Opened O.
nnd W. Main Line Closed.
Things are beginning to adjust
themselves after the big storm of .Sat
urday night, and llule Inconvenience
is felt In. the city. J.oeal trallle on the
railroads is free, though the Ontario
and Western still has men at work
ballasting the roadbed where the wash
out occurred, below Olyphaiu station.
On the Delaware and Hudson, every
thing Is rmmlnir smoothly. The main
line of the Ontario and Western Is still
in trouble. North of ("adosla there Is
a blockade and us a consenueiiee

The i:rle made big demands on the
lumber which was stoied along the

to use It In strengthening bridges
that had been weakened.
Farmers who come from over Dun

roadway, .lust above ".Toe" sjeheck s,
on the Crystal lake road, there was
finite a washout, barely leaving room
for the safe passage of vehicles. All

WHEEL AND LAD GONE.
Paul Clifford Alias Chauucey Walk
er Wnnted on Several Charges.
Constable Edward Xeary would like
lo lay his hands on one Paul Clifford,
alias Chauucey Walker, of llingham
tou, X, Y who left here on Monday,
taking with him a bicycle belonging to
his room-mate, Fred Shepherd, a bell
boy at the American hoit.'V. All that
he left behind him was a small unpaid
boa id bill and not a very good reputa
tion for honesty and Integrity.
Clifford came here a few weeks ago
In company with Shepherd. They ar
rived here from llouesdale and came lo
solicit orders for a portrait company.
A week or so ago the pair left the pic
ture company. Shepherd getting em
ployment at the American house, Clif
ford remaining on Easy street. They
hoarded at the Webb boarding house,
but Shepherd chaiifjed lo Ihe hotel
when he began work theie. When he
went for his wheel Monday h learned
it was gone, Clifford or lllaek was also
missing and he has not been seen since,
He said nothing about going nway and
what was of more importance he fot
got, purposely or otherwise, to pay his
week's board,
It Is not believed that the wheel was
taken away, bat was disposed of eith
er In Carbondale or near this city. The
police lu ISinghamton, which Clifford
claims is his home, were untitled.

Wouldn't Pay the Fnic nnd Was
Sent to Jail,
John Van Nome, of Wilkes-Uarre,
came to (.'arbondale yesterday. tlo
had all the clmracterlHtlcs of a native
of the little town along tho Susque
hanna, chief among these was his
exaggerated Idea of himself that the
men from down that way have, Vnn
Nome could see no reason why he
should pay his fare for riding on a
Delaware and Hudson train and the
conductor could see no good reason
why ho shouldn't produce. First, the
Wllkes-Uarru man secreted himself in
the tar toilet room. Subsequently ho
took his real among tho other passen
gers, and when the conductor re
quested his ticket or cash fare, he as
sumed the nlr of an offended Wllkes
Jiarn; man: there's only one man, and
that's a Wllkes-narre man, who can
become real earnest over an Imaginary
offense. This Is what this man did,
protesting that lie had paid his fare to
Wllkes-ltairc on the way to Carbon
dale earlier In the day. Conductors
meet with all kinds of Jokers, but this
one was lu a ilass of his own, He
persisted In his little attempt at farce
until Detective Martin Crlppen, of the
company, came on the scene nnd gave
It a serio-comic air. Van Nome was
sized up to be a Wllkes-iinrre man
and was put off at tho next station, in
charge of Mr. Crlppen, who took him
to Alderman .tones' olllce. In this city,
where a charge of stealing a ride on a
train was prof e: red against hlni.
The alderman, when ho heard the
evidence, believed there was a good
case against the Jarerne county man,
and gave him over to the charge of
Constable Ncary. who took hltu to the
county jail, where he will eat his
Christmas dinner.
THE FELL SCHOOL BOARD
Business Transacted nt te Last
Regular Session Monday Night.
The Fell school board met last even
lug lu Simpson and after going through
the regular i"'der of business the direc
tors! decided to close the township
schools on December "0. and open them
again on January (1, IHO:'.
The report 'of Supervising Principal
Delaney showed aa attendance of -10!!
pupils for the mouth of November, as
against 4211 during the month of Octo
ber. This falling oil' in attendance is
due lo the negligence of parents and
guardians. The board of education
warns those parents lo be nude prompt
in sending their children to school, or it
will enforce the school law.
The beating of room No. V, in Simp
son school was referred lo a commit
tee. The board adjourned, to meet at the
call of ihe cha:r.
OLCOTT'S RECEPTION.
A Crowded House Greets the Actor
Singer in "Garrett O'Mngh."
Chauucey Olcott, the actor of many
graces and the sweet-voiced singer,
whose songs have delighted thousands,
was given a characteristic reception by
the Carbondale people last night, when
the Orand was tilled with a crowded
audience. It was an expression of
warm-hearted admiral lou that surely
must have jdi ased (lit oil, though he
may be accustomed to singing beforr
big audiences.
The play, "(tarietl O'Magh," in which
Olcotl Is in the title role, is of the same
typo lu which this Irish minstrel is to
be found each year, lie is a romantic
lover, a role in which he is at home,
and makes everybody else uboul him
feel the same way. The piece Is of the
lightest comedy, with plenty of funny
situations, though ii may not sparkle
uilh wit. The tun is pare, light
hearted and wholesome, there Is an
abundance of It, and, coupled with l
eott's singing, It offers a truly delight
ful evening. Everybody is sure to be
siillslled mid pleased to have laughed
with (iarreit O'Magti In his meriy
love-making.
The company is a splendid one, the
staging wim excellent, and with the en
thusiastic audience then- were all the
elenienis lo make the engagement n
success.

Honest Doctobs
As u rule doctors arc nbnotutuly ltoiicsl. Tho fanoy
which some peoplo liavo (hat tlnt'tora iiniko frequent
visits lo run tip hilts is simply horn of Inttk of knowledge
of the tlelicitoy and diflluiilty of the doctor's work. As
a rule, when the doctor lins renehctl the limit of his skill
ho -will any so, and rofuso to take money for
services which he knows must he timivailintr. lint
even tho most honest doctor sometimes falls into
the error of limiting tho possibilities of :i euro to
the measure of his own skill. Jle says, practic
ally, "I huvo exhausted till my knowledge nnd
skill in the case. Nobody can do mom than I
can. The- patient cannot get well." This state
ment may he made in perfect good faith and in
all honesty, and yet it is very often proven wrong
by the recovery of the pationt as a result of the
use of Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery.
"My sister (of Arlington, Washington Co., Neb") was
taken very sick and Intil several doctors," writes Mrs.
C. h. Harrison, of Hlk City, Douglas Co., Neb. "They
could not do her any good and told my mother they

So she boucht sis bottles, three of 'Golden Medical 11U
covety,' three of ' Favorite Prescription ' and some of the
Pellets,' and now my sister is a well woman."
The testimonial of Mrs. Harrison is an adiniralilo
illustration of the fact that honest doctors can he
mistaken. Several doctors were in attendance.
They snid, " We wont come any more as the pa
tient can't get well, and no doctor could help her,"
and yet the use of Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical
Discovery effected a complete euro. This is not an excep
tional .ease. It has happened again and again that after
doctors had decided no cure was possible, a perfect euro
has followed the use of " Golden Medical Discovery."
"I am truly glad that I can do the least thing lo show my nrati
ude for your great medicine," writes .Mrs. Mollic llirchtielil, of
landley, Kanawha Co., W. Vo. ''I was taken six years ai'o with

It might he asked with reason. " Mow can Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery
cure when so many doctors tail-"' The answer must he that, "Golden Medical Dis
covery is the product nl n larger experience in disease and superior skill in treatment
than theirs. Many a sailor can pilot his boat about, the familiar waters of his own
coast who would he powerless to accomplish an ocean voyage. Many a doctor can
treat successfully certain tamiliar forms of disease who linds himself "helpless when
the larger problems ol complicated diseases confront him. Dr. 'Pierce's Golden Med
ical Discovery was perlcetcd in years of study and experience. Dr. Pierce found that
many diseases of organs remote, from the slomaeli had their origin in iliseascs of tho
stomach and other organs of digestion aud.imlritmi. We argued that a medicine.
which would cure the diseased stomach and its allied organs, would also cure the dis
eases in other organs when they were caused by disease in' the digestive and nutritive
tracts. To produce such a curative medicine was the effort of Dr. Pierce. His suc
cess is testified to by thousands tipun thousands of cures.
Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery cures diseases of the stomach and other
organs of digestion and nutrition, and so enables the perfect nutrition of the body.
Perfect nutrition is perfect health. Ulood is only digested food, and a common cause
of impure blood is food-undigested. The ' Discovery," therefore, heals the stomach

and so strengthens the heart, liver, lungs, kidneys, etc",
whose vilalitv and vigor depend on an abundant sup
ply of pure blood. It cures biliousness and cleanses
the blood front poinonoiis excreta, the product of a
sluggish liver. It builds up the whole body with
sound solid llesli, and gives new strength and new life
to worn-out, riiu-downweak and emaciated men and
women.
