The smallpox patients are all on the

MORRIS ONLTCANDIDATE
Will Have No Opposition for the
Republican Nomination for
City Controller.
Yesleiday was the last day for can
didates to register for the Itepubllcan
nomination for city controller and Evan
Morris, the assistant city clerk, was the
only candidate to register.
Because of this it will be unnecessary
to bold a primary election. The city
committee will meet tonight at Alder
man Millar's olllce, when It will prob
ably be recommended that the Repub
licans of the various election districts
elect vigilance committees.
THE PAXTH ORCHESTRA.
Will Give a Great Concert Next Mon
day Night.
.Much interest is demonstrated in the
orchestra concert to be given 115x1
Montlay night nt the new armory. It
has been many a day since Scranton
had a great orchestra concert from out
of town talent. In no other city In the
country Is good music appreciated more
than here, and the enthusiasm with
which people welcome fine concerts Is
always a ciPdlt to this town. Emll
I'.utr is considered one of the greatest
leaders In the world, and It Is with sat
isfaction that our munlcal circles have
learned of his engagement nt this time.
He conies accompanied by celebrated
artists.
An additional reason why this con
cert should be patronized to the fullest
extent of the armory is that the con
cert is for the benefit of the Young
Women's Christian association, one of
the most deserving institutions in this
region.
That Emll Paur delights to give tho
things that please the people is plainly
shown In th programme which be has
prepared for the concert in our city by
his great orchestra. The programme Is
a 'gem. It combines the classical with
the popular in a way that only a master
could arrange. Among the popular num
bers, perhaps the most popular is the
lovely "Traumerel," of Schumann. One
eminent writer has said that It Is the
hearing of the things one knows, given
perfectly, which best serves the edu
cational end and at the same time af
fords the greatest delight.

LONDON'S PRIVATE PALACES.
What Furnishings Cost S100,000
to Decorate Single Rooms.
I'i 0111 the l.onikiii Mail.
The recent sale of Rattle Abbey for
C 200,000 11 figure at which the prop
erly Is considered almost ruinously
cheap gives some small Idea of the
vast sums that may be expended on
one's domicile. Huston Hall, the
Duke of Westminster's Cheshire seat,
cost the lato holder of the title consid
erably over 1,000,000 sterling to build,
and probably even this llgure would
go only a very small way toward pur
chasing any one of some score of Lon
don houses as they stand,
Perhaps none of these palaces strike
the visitor with a vivid sense of their
wealth more than do Spencer House,
In Arlington slreet, and Norfolk
house, in St. Jitines' saltan1. Stafford
house, St. James' palace, the largest nf
them by far, contains probably tuoie
money's woiih than any of tho others,
but Is not so lavishly decorated.
One may discover that for. a singlo
side-board without any history or age
to enhance Its value the sum of iPOO
may bo paid: for a suite to accompany
it another .I'.'OO; for a caipet for the
dining room, X7S0; for cut talus fop the
same loolu, J212 ,1 yard; on fireplace
and inantleplece L'SOO niny be laid out;
the tapestry and carved paneling Willi
which to clothe the walls will cost
100 per panel, and the ceiling, If a
Whistler or u Sargent decorates It,
will run away with 0,000, Altogeth
er, one may Invest i'11,170 on tho din
ing mom one of the cheapest apart
meats in the house. The mere inuntl
decoration la the giand drawing room
will cost more, and its other appoint
ments four to live times as much,
Then there will be three or four small
er ill awing rooms, boudoirs and nlu
slo rooms to furulbli nt n porpoitiouate
cost; u morning room or two, which
will cost a mere 10,000 apiece; a lib
rary, that cannot very well be fur
nished in keeping with the rest for
less than XJ2.000, Including pooka.
With regard to tho bediooms, 700
apiece may be paid for some of the
suites and 100 for tho beds. These
figures ure by no means fancy pi Ices
that It would be dKficult to spend. To
such u Arm as yyuring's they reprer
went Items that there would be easily
supplied.

Ion Junk dealer, and his son, Simon,
who were belli under ball on Saturday
last, on the charge of receiving stolen
brass, will be again anested today on
the same charge and held under heavier
bonds.
The oillcers who worked tin last
week's case ugalnst the two Wnrtoskls
and who recovered a large quantity of
stolen brass at Everbart's brass works,
were positive at that time that he had
more stolen biass in Ills possession, and
It was decided to keep a watch on him.
Detective Will Clifford was on the look
out yesterday morning and discovered
that Wnrtoskl was loading largo quan
tities of old paper on a freight car In
the Delaware and Hudson yard.
He kept a wuteh on the car and saw
several barrels of what appeared to be
metal, unloaded from the wagon. He
Immediately secured it "search warrant
f"om Alderman Ruddy and taking two
Lackawanna special oflleers with him,
made a search of the car.
Stored away hi a far corner, under
neath it number of bales of paper, were
found live barrels of brass, which had
been stolen from the Delaware, Lacka
wanna and Western and Delaware and
Hudson Itallroad companies and the
Scranton Hallway company. There were
about 800 pounds in all, and machinists
who viewed the metal placed Its value
to the companies at Sl.oOO. Some of the
brass journals and other pieces were
brand new am1 are very valuable.
On the Information or Detective Clif
ford, Alderman ltuddy last night Issued
warrants for the arrest of both Wnr
toskl and his son, on the charge of re
ceiving stolen goods. There will be
three separate prosecutors, and the two
men will be held under bull on each
charge this morning.
A LESSON IN ETIQUETTE.
How a Countryman Showed Appre
ciation to M. E. Ingalls.
I'roni the New- York Time.
M. E. Ingalls, the railroad magnate
of the Middle West, whose Interests
are more or less allied with the Van
derbllt system, is no exception to prom
inent men of business, inasmuch as lie
maintains an anteroom where callers
aie required to state their errands be
fore being admitted to the olliclal
stronghold.
Not long since, however, one indiv
idual swept the entire arrangement
aside by stalking past the outer secre
taries with an air of authority which
disarmed them. He boldly pushed open
the door to the sanctum and entered.
Taken my surprise, Mr. Ingalls looked
up and beheld a tall, bronzed person
age, bearing every mark of rural citi
zenship, surveying the apartment with
an Inquiring eye. Tha new-comer de
manded sharply;
"Is Ingalls hero'."'
"I am 'Ingalls, " returned the mag
nate, laconically.
The stranger strode to the desk and
threw down an envelope.
"Letter for you," he said curtly.
Mr. Ingalls read it and frowned.
"Do you know what is In this letter?"
be demanded.
"Yep. The station agent In my town
said If I'd fetch that to youv I'd git a
job."
"Indeed! Do you not think It would
be more becoming in you as an appli
cant for employment at least to knock
at the door before entering and remove
your hat while in the olllco? And,
farther, would it not be more seemly
In you to inquire for Mr. Ingalls rath
er than for Ingalls?"
Beneath this merited rebuke the man
moved not a muscle.
"Give me the letter," said he, sober
ly. Mr. Ingalls promptly banded over
the letter, and bis visitor went out,
closing the door behind hi in without a
word. While the clerks were still grin
ning over the Incident, there was a
tlmld knock at the door. The door was
opened. There stood the same Individ
ual. He entered with an obsequious
bow, carefully wiped bis feet, removed
his hat, and meekly asked:
"Is Sir, Ingalls here?"
The magnate beamed. "Alt, my
young friend." said he graciously.
"That is the better. What can I do
for you?"
The countryman drew himself up
with a ferocious glute. "Do for me?"
be yelled, "Do for me? You can go to
h 1. you little bald-headed duffer;
that's what you kin do for niel"
And he withdrew, slamming the door
behind him.
HANDS AND FEET LONG AGO.
Modern Ideas Not Shared by the
Peaple of Antiquity.
I'ioiii the Vow Voik Trihuue.
"Why Is it," remarked some one the
oilier day, "that hands are honored and
ftet aro dishonored In modern estima
tion'.' -The former being the aristocrats,
as It wore, and ihe latter the plubhttis

no such prejudice. In the East the

pose was considered au especial murk
