THINKS CITY PLANT
IS A CERTAINTY
Ppinion of L. A. Roberts, Lender in
Municipal Water Movement, Is
That Carbondale Will Have Its
Own Water System, Regardless of
Supreme Court's Decision His
Statement.
L. A. Roberts, who is the leader in
"me movement for municipal ownership
of water and the candidate for mayor
on the free water platform, is firmly
of the opinion that a city water sys
tem is a certainty, regardless of how
the Supreme court may deal with Judge
llalsey's opinion. In a statement which
Mr. Roberts gave to The Tribune last
evening he soys:
"At llrst blush, the opinion of Judge
Jlalsey did not commend itself to mo
ns good law, and most certainly, not
justice. I have been taught that 'com
mon law is common sense,' and is tak
en from the Divine law. Judge llal
sey's opinion, on the contrary, did not
read to me as having been taken from
any such source. A careful perusal of
the opinion, however, very forcibly re
minded mo of the saying, that every
cloud has Us silver lining, and that this
opinion, contrary though it may ap
pear to all such intents and purposes,
has its silver lining also. Quoting from
the very meat of his opinion, he says:
Then it is made lawful after twenty
years from the introduction of the
water for the municipality to become
the owners of the water winks by pay
ing the net cost of erecting and main
taining the same with interest thereon
nt the rate of ten per, centum per an
num, deducting from such interest,
however, any dividends theretofore de
clared. Here then plainly were two
distinct methods by which the munici
pality could supply Its citizens with
.water.'
"Now then, It the Supremo court sus
tains Judge llalsey's opinion, we can
nnd will condemn the Crystal Lake
(Water company, as prescribed in the
apinion which will give us this old and
established plant without a dollar of
expense. For after deducting nil divi
dends, the company would be In our
debt. This procedure was one of the
two ways recommended by ex-Judge
Rhone. If, however, the Supreme
court does not sustain the opinion, then
it must sustain us In the Issuing oC
?14fi,000 bonds for'the erection of a mu
nicipal plant. Iii either case, the city
wins the light, and the people are to be
congratulated on tliplr victory.
"In regard to Judge llalsey's opinion
bn the Ransom tract, ho says: 'The
talcing of the Ransom tract by the city
in the erection of Ks plant, would bo
taking a part of the franchise of the
Jcrmyn Water company, which would
result in the undisputed damage to
them of .$2.')0,000.' Wo ulwnys knew the
Ransom tract was valuable, but really,
.we never knew it was worth $250,000.
MATING IN HAVANA.
Yankees Club Together.
In Havana It Is the custom to servo
Duly bread and coffee for breakfast. A
' little colony of Americans tlutt felt they
could not do their work until noon on
tills kind of diet clubbed together and
began importing Grape-Nuts Breakfast
Food.
One of thpin writing about the mat
jtpr,'.saya:,,,The modern cooking range
'had never been known In Cuba until
tho American occupation, nnd even now
they ara scarce, so that n ready cooked
food like Grape-Nuts recommends It-
....Eelf ..to star.tivlth;. then the Yankees
were accustomed to the food and felt
they could hardly get along without It.
They began buying hi flvo case lots and
one by one tho larger grocery stores
btgaii (keeping' drape-Nuts in stock so
tirJ 'business 'spread until now' great
ciuantlliea of Grape-Nuts. iu;e used In
Cuba,. and it Is not only used' .by tho
Americans but tho othor,.,lnlwbltants
ns well." i . ".
-This fe.an.lllustrnUon dftho tfny the
-" t anTous" food has pushed 'Itself Into' all
parts of the world. Wherever English
.speaking people go they demand Grape
Nuts. Titer can bo found in South Af
rica, Egypt, India, China, Japan, Aus
tralla and South America.
Many, Americans speak of the home
llko feeling" U" gives' Uiem to see the
numberless busses in tho streets of
London decorated with great blue
signs with tho word, "Grape-Nuts,"
done In, yellow letters, nnd all over
England the great purveying shops dis
tribute Grape-Nuts.
English roast beef has largely given
way to American roast beef, and the
'iSld'ifaehloned English breakfast of
' acorf and potatoes Is now supplement
ed with Grape-Nuts and cream. Tho
change was made for a reason. It has
been discovered that almost magical
power rests within the little granules,
and. this power Is set free in tho body
that' tiiakes uso of tho famous food.
How will the enemies of municipal
water reconcile this with their old cry
that tho Rttnsotn tract wns no good?
Seriously though, do yott uellcvo or do
you think anybody could bo found In
the wholo city, who believes tho Jcr
myn "Water company would bn dam
aged to tho amount of $250,000, or that,
In other words, It Is worth just that
nmottnt of money to them? As n mat
ter of fact, the Pioneer Citizens' "Witter
company own the Ransom tract, and
have a right to all tho water except
that which Hows through It nt the low
est titno In tho year, which Is n very
small amount. The law for this can be
found in Vol. 0, Pentm. District Re
ports, page 291. If, however, there wits
no stream of water running through It
at all, we could get.wlthout the shadow
of doubt, nil the wntor we want In
putting In the basin a number of arte
sian wells.
"L. A. Roberts."
THE OMAR DANCE
A BRILLIANT SUCCESS
The Greatest Social Affair Ever Con
ducted in Carbondale by Young
People "Brilliant Illumination and
Beautiful Decorations nnd Itichly
robed Dancers.
Tito Omnr pro-Lenten dunce In the
Rurke building last night was a bril
liant social tuici'pss. Jt was n great
social triumph for the young men to
whom Its succeess Is credited, as it
was tho smartest affair ever conducted
In Carbondale by young people and it
has -perhaps never been eclipsed by
any social organization. Tt was fea
tured by ilazzlingly beautiful illumina
tions, artistic decorations and an as
semblage of young maidens, tobed In
rare costumes, who with their escorts
followed the pleasures of the dance to
enlivening music by Carbondale's lead
ing musical organization, tho Mozart
orchestra.
The decorations were made a feature
of the enterprise, and the time the
committee spent In giving expression
to their ideas of tho decorative art was
rewarded in a transformation of tho
dance hall that was a revelation of
beauty to the guests as they entered
the room to enter Into, the pleasures
of tho evening. Green was tho scheme
of- decoration, which under the blaze
of light that the illumination shed, pre
sented charming and inviting pictures
of it landscape' flooded with sunlight.
Every nook of the room hail a tasteful
and natural arrangement of evergreen
that removed the bareness and naked
ness. Suspended from the coiling were
swinging llower pots with n wreath
of green plants that overran until tho
creeping vines almost touched the fair
dancers' heads. Tho balcony was
screened with a wreath of green, in the
midst of which Incandescent globes
aroso and shed their effulgence like
small suns. All of tho bay windows
were draped with lace curtains, while
tho sills bore graceful plants. The bay
windows In front with their palms and
ferns looked like the ilrs'l glimpse at a
conservatory. Rare bric-a-brao added
to tlie general effect. Tho stage was
a bower of green from out of which
came tho entrancing melody of tho
waltz and the enlivening music of the
two-step.
Throughout the ball there was n
series of white and blue lights that
made a blaze oC glot'y and lighted up
tho moving picture of color. The hall
way leading to tho dance room was
aglow with softened red lights. Tho
hall was it beautiful picture of light
and color when the dancers assembled
and moved to tho music of the waltz
and other popular numbers.
Tho attendance was made up of the
young people that are conspicuous In
younger society not in Carbondale but
In the towns down the valley as far as
Wilkes-Ii.'trre. It yns a rare gathering
of happy, light-hearted young folks
who derived tho keenest enjoyment
from tho pleasures suggested by the
affair. It was an occasion that will
recall pleasant and enjoyable memories
when discussed as It Is sure to be
among tho society of young people.
The patronesses of tho dance were:
Mrs. II. A. Kelly, Mrs. P. A. Carroll.
Mrs. J. A. Kelly, Mrs. .1. W. Wltite,
Mrs. J. P. l.oltus, Mrs. A. F. Glllls,
Miss Kntheryn Pace, Miss Angellu Hlrs.
The committee which conducted tho
arrangements so suce'cesst'ully were:
James W. Campbell. Walter E. I.oftus,
Frank G. Rurke. Edward W. Gllhool,
John Ilarte Rurke.

IRRITABLE WOMEN

Men Don't Understand How They
Suffer When They Cry, " Oh, Don't
Speak to Me." "
t All manner of exlntvnganfc expressions arc possible when a woman's
norves are overwrought.
The spasm at; tho top of tho wind plpo or bronchial tubes, "ball
rising in tho throat," violent beating of the heart, laughing and crying
by turns, muscular spasms (throwing the arms about), frightened by tho
most insignificant occurrences are all symptoms of a hysterical condi
tion and serious derangement of tho fomalo organs.
Any female complaint may produco hysterics, which must bo re
garded as a symptom only. Tno cause, liowover. yields quiokly to
lij'dla E. Plnkhnm'.s Vege(alIo Compound, which nets at onco upon
the organ ainicted and tho nervo centres, dispelling effectually nil thoso
distressing symptoms.

No Argument Needed
Every Buffsror from Catarrh Known
that Salvos, Lotions, WnBhos.Sprayn
nnd Douches So Not Curo.
Powders, lotions, salves, sprays and
Inhalers cannot really cure Catarrh, be
cause nils' disease Is a blood disease,
and local applications, If they accom
plish anything at nil, slinply give tran
sient relief.
Tho catarrhal nolson Is in the blood
and tho niticuous membrane of the
nose, throat and trachea tries to re
lieve the system by secreting largo
quantities of mttctlos, tho discharge
sometimes closing up the nostrils',,
dropping Into tho throat, causing dear?
liess by closing tho Eustachian tubesr
and after n time causing catarrh of thd
stomach or serious throat and lung
troubles.
A remedy to really cure catarrh must
be an internal remedy which will
cleanse the blood from catarrhal 'poi
son nnd remove the fever and -congestion
from the mucous moinbranc.
The best and most modern remedies
for this purpose are antiseptics sclen
tlllcally known as Eucalyptol, Guala
col, Sangulnnria and Hydrastln, nnd
tt'hlle euch of these have been success
fully used 'separately, yet It has been
dlillcult to get them all combined In one
palatable, convenient and eillcient
form.
The manufacturers of the now ca
tarrh cure, Stuart's Catarrh- Tablets,,
have succeoeded admirably In accom
pllshlng tfiis result. They nre larger
pleasant-tasting lozenges, to be .dls
solved In the mouth, thus reaching:
every part ot the mucous membrane o
the throat and finally the stomach,
Unlike fhany catarrh reme'dlesy
Stuart's Catarrh Tablets contain no
cocaino, opiate or any injurious drug!
whatever, and are equally beneficial fop
little children and adults.
Mr. C. B. Rembrandt, of Rochester,
N. y says: "I know of few people
who have suffered a3 much as I from
Catarrh of tho head, throat and stom
ach. I used sprays, Inhalers and pow
ders for months at a time with only
slight relief, and had no hope of cure.
I had not the means to make a. change
of climate, which seemed my only
chance of cure.
"Last spring I read an account' ot
some remarkable cures made by.
Stuart's Catarrh Tablets and promptly,
bought n fifty-cent box from my drug
gist and obtained such positive benefit
from that ono package that I continued
to uso them daily until I now- consider
myself entirely free from this disgusting
annoyance of catarrh; my liea.dlsclear,.
my digestion all I could ask and ms'
hearing, which had begun to fail ns a
result of the catarrh, 'has greatly Im
proved until I feel I can hear ns well
as ever. They nro a household neces
sity In my family."
Stuart's Catarrh Tablets are sold by
drufigists at fiO cents for complete
treatment and for convenience, safety
and prompt results they arc undoubted
ly tho long looked for catarrh cure.
The old saying that the gown
does not make the woman may
bo true, but the 1002 materials

The Sheer Delmar Lawns,
Dainty Duchess Dimities will

gowns for afternoon and even

The novel Silk Swisses are
really Silk Embroideries, the ln
worked design standing boldly
from tho background, giving It a
rich appearance, making It most
suitable for silk uiiilor-llnlngs
and elabornto trimmings. r
