present In lnrgo numbeis ioko and re
mained standing while Judge Ed
ward's formally Introduced the new
Judge. Clerk Williams read Judge
Xeucomb'H commission and then the
three Judges proceeded to hear mo

ing Judge Kelly to deal with the grand
Jury, constables' returns and equity
court. Jly Invitation of Judge Edwards
the new Judge sat with him In cham
bers in the hearing of a rule to ap
point a guardian for uu aged wcak
nlndeil woman and the tnlihnr of tes
timony on the rule to dissolve the In
junction In the case of C. P. O'Mulley
against the borough of Olyphnnl.
l'lllST OFFICIAL ACT.
The first Individual ofllclal act of
Judge Ncwcomb was the attaching of
the court's' conditional approval to the
report of the viewers on tho petition
to make Drown Hollow turnpike a free
lo.id. The petition was represented by
('. It. Gardner.
Judge Ncwcomb was located In the
chambers on the first iloor formerly
occupied by Judge Carpenter. Ho
spent the afternoon there attending to
correspondence and receiving callers
who came to proffer their congratula
tions. The county commissioners reorgan
ized by electing John J. Durkln,
chairman; John Courier Morris, sec
retary and John Penman treasurer. In
the afternoon they held another ses
sion and elected ex-Coroner S. P.
I.ong.street, M. D.. as jail physician to
succeed Dr. Saltry, who yesterday be
came coroner. There were eight can
didates for the the place. Dr. Long
street was chosen as a compromise.
AH tho other officials and employees
selected by the commissioners were re
appointed. The auditors leorganizer! by electing
A. IS. Klefer, president; William E.
John, secretary, and P. "W. Costello,
treasurer.
The county controller succeeds tho
county auditors, but they must audit
all accounts up to the time the con
troller took olilce, July 1. 1901. The ac
counts yet to be audited are those
hearing date between January 1, 1901
and July 1, 1001.
Both the commissioners and auditors
,aie in the third and last year of their
terms.
COMPENSATION THE SAME.
The auditors and commissioners met
and fixed the compensation of tho
treasurer at the same figure as last
year.
The commissioners also proceeded to
fix the allowance of tho sheriff for
feeding prisoners, but were halted by
n notice from O'Brien & Martin that
they had no power to deal with this
matter.
It appeals that Lackawanna county
lias been illegally providing for this
matter over since Its organization. The
law under which the county has been
working Is the act of 1S0S, a special
act, referring specifically and conclu
sively, not to Luxerne county, but to
the Luzerne county prison, "Just com
pleted." This act provides that the
county commissioners shall fix the
compensation to be allowed the sheriff
for feeding prisoners. The general act
of April 11, lS.'C. Is the one that con
trols, according to the contention of
Sheriff Schndt's attorneys, O'Brien &
Murtin, and this act stipulates that the
compensation shall be fixed by the
court of quarter sessions.
WANT COMPENSATION FIXED.
Mr. Martin, of O'Brien & Martin,
went before the court yesterday with
a petition from Sheriff Schodt to have
tlie court fix tho compensation. Court
declined to grant the petition, but di
iccted that tho matter be argued next
Monday. Instructions were given Mr.
Martin to notify tho commissioners
and controller to be ready to argue
tho case Monday. Mr, Martin served
Mr, Henry Alberts, of No. 01(5 Birth
street, Scrunton, Pu., saya; "For
about two years my back and kidneys

In bad shape. Nothing seemed to help
me at all until I got Dr. A. W, Chase's
Nwvo Pills at Matthews Bros, drug

They did the work, curing tho soreness
nd lameness making the secretion
healthy and generally giving? me health
ma etieni;
WHEN
tho notice on the cointnlsslonorn us
thoy were about to fix the compensa
tion. The sheriff has been receiving twenty-live
cents a prisoner por day. 'The
law which his attorneys are contend
ing for provides that the compensa
tion shall not bo more than 25 cents
per day. The sheriff's attorneys argue
that It can not be made less thai)
twenty-live cents, because the supremo
court has decided that this compensa
tion Is one of tho sheriff's emoluments,
and his emoluments can not be de
creased during tho term of his office.
Decisions by tho Judges,
A number of decisions wcro handed
down, yesterday, by Judges Edwurds
nnd Kelly. Among them were severnl
of more than usunl Importance. The

that the facts of the case' did not warrant an

not blameless be should piy the rusts.
Judge Kelly rendered the following
decisions:
Ininiuonwenltli against I.elloy Wh1j.Ii The de
fendant had Ceoige Smith arrested on the ihaige
of being llie Keeper of it biudi' bouse, "with
the intent Io Intimidate, iinnoy, levy hl.it kni.ill
nnd evtotl money." Defense was roudc that "no
clime is rharged in the indictment Known to the
common or statutory law of the '.'ouiiiioiivvealtli
of I'rnns Ivanhi." The indictment is driwn mi
del the provisions of the act of Ma 27, lb')7, 1'.
I.. Ill, entitled "An act to amend an act mak
ing it a inif.dente.moi' to ley bi.tekm.iil, etc."
'IJic defen.'.e held that this uct was iinicnstltu
lloinl nnd void. Court lules that the title of
the ai t i- confusing. If not ailinilv misleading,
in that it designates the aet .is nn amendatory
:ii t while it make no lefereme to an set It
would amend. It piuporls to amend "an act
linking It ,i misdemeanor to lcy Maikmall,
etc." As a matter of fact, the court holds, no
such original net oisl.s. The indietnunl there
for charges no indlctnble oflcnse .aid the lule
to quash is made absolute.
In te rotd in Spring lliook townslilp The re
