THREE MEN
AJTCKILLED
PATHETIC DEATH OF JOSEPH
FOIN, OF THIS OITY.
Was on His Way Home to Attond
His Mother's Funeral At Avoca
Ho Was "Struck by a Jersey Central
Train and Instantly Killed An
Unknown Man Killed at Dellovuo
on Jersey Central, and Another
Met Death on Lackawanna at
Moscow. '
Joseph Foln, of -103 Point avenue, was
Instantly killed yesterday morning ut
Avoca by u Jersey Central passenger
train, while on his way from Wllkes
Barre to this city, where ho had been
summoned by the death of his mother,
Mrs. John Foln.
The young man had been lit Wilkes
Barre, and loft for this city yesterday
morning. The facts regarding tho man
ner in which he met his, death are not
clearly known, but It Is understood that
he alighted from the train for a moment
and was struck by a passenger train
going In the opposite direction. His
neck was broken and he died Instantly.
He was Identified by the telegram an
nouncing his mother's death, which
was found In his pocket. The remains
arrived In this city last night nnd were
removed to Wyinbs' undertaking estab
lishment. It Is probable that the funeral of
mother and son will be conducted at
tho same time, though the time has not
been fixed as yet. f
Killed at Bellevue.
An unknown Polunder, about 3,i years
old, was struck by a Jersey Central
passenger train shortly after noon yes
terday, near the Bellevue breaker, and
was Instantly killed.
The remains were taken to Cuslck's
undertaking establishment, where a
thorough search of tho clothing failed
to reveal anything which would lead to
the man's identification. Coroner Sultry
was notified, and after viewing the re
mains decided an Inquest to be un
necessary. The man was fairly well dressed, but
tho hands bear evidence to the fact
that he was a laboring man. The body
will bo kept for several days for identi
fication. Unknown Man Killed at Moscow.
An unknown man was killed at 9:30
o'clock yesterday morning while walk
ing on the Lackawanna railroad tracks
on the curve Just east of the Moscow
station. The stranger was plodding
along eastward on the westbound
track, and did not heed the signal giv
en from the engine attached to train
No. 43.
The body was struck and hurled a
considerable distance. The remains
were afterwards gathered together and
placed in charge of the station agent
at Moscow, where they await Identifi
cation. There was nothing on the man's per
son by which he could be Identified. He
is supposed to have been a tramp, as
his clothes showed evidence of hard
ship. RECEPTION TO W0DLLEY
W. C. T. U. Ladies Entertained
the Great Temperance Orator
Yesterday.
Hon. John G. Woolley, Prohibition
candidate for tho presidency in 1900
and a temperance orator of much force
and personal magnetism, arrived in this
city yesterday, having been brought
here by the Prohibition county com
mittee. He was tendered a reception in
Guernsey hall In the afternoon, be
tween the hours of 3 and 4 o'clock, by
the 'central city branch of the Women's
Christian Temperance union. Temper
ance workers from all parts of the
county attended, and a most delightful
hour was spent.
Mrs. Downing, president of the
branch, presided and Introduced Mr.
Woolley, after the singing of several
Inspiring temperance songs by the Pro
hibition Glee club, under tho leadership
of Gomer Reese.
Mr. Woolley has just returned from
New Zealand, where he- hus assisted In
the campaign for the total abolition of
tho liquor traffic. The question, "Shall
the saloon bo abolished?" Is to be put to
a popular vote very shortly, Mr. Wool
ley said, and as there Is universal suf
frage In Now Zealand, he expressed the
belief that prohibition will win out. If
woman suffrage existed in this coun
try, he said, tho mission of the Wom
en's Christian Tomporanco union would
lie In the political Held, but as It (Joes
not, the union's work Is to "educate
and elevate."
Mr. Woolley said that If the women
of America, are ever given the oppor
tunity to vote, prohibition will win out,
"Prohibition will finally win out In this
country, anyway," said he. "I cannot
say when, but the day will come when
tho liquor traffic will be abolished. It
Is not for us to ask when this time will
come, but to work with a will to brine
It about."
Attorney E. D. Nichols, of Wllkes
Barre, a well-known temperance advo
cate, spoke along similar lines, and fol
lowing tho addresses there was a gen
eral Interchange of greetings.
A committee was appointed at yes
terday's meeting to arrange a pro
gramme for the county convention to
ha hold In Duiimore early in Marcji,
The exact date and church In which
tho convention will bo held have not
yet been decided upon.

OUTLOOK VERYBRIGHT.
Favorable Reports from All Parts
of the City at lnst Night's
Meeting.
v III Republican headquarters on Wash
Ingtonnavenue, last night, there was a
general meeting of tho executive nnd
general city committees, which are In
charge of the present Republican city
campaign, it was the most enthusias
tic meeting held since tho camualgn
opened, and tho reports from the dif
ferent wards mado bv the committee
men showed that Evan R. Morris is al
most certain of election next Tuesday.
Attorney W. S. Dlehl, In reporting for
the Seventeenth ward, said that Cos
tello carried tho city lust fall by S4C
votes, but the conditions are much dif
ferent now and that every indication
points to the election of Morris for
controller by a majority that will run
as high as 1.S00.
After the reports were all in, Chair
man Chittenden said that when the
campaign first opened he was afraid
there was not. much chance for tho
election of Candidate Morris, but con
ditions have grown brighter and
brighter with eacli succeeding day, and
he Is now confident that a victory on
Tuesduy next is a certainty.
There was sihiih comment Wor the
condition of affairs in tlip KK-tennti,
ward, where the Democratic candidate
tor select council is unopposed, but an
independent Democrat is in the field
against the Republican candidate for
common council, who was also to bo
unopposed. It was the belief of those
present that some good Republican
ought to be nicked out and run on
stickers for select council and every
effort mado to elect him.
Short impromptu addresses were
made by Attorney M. W. Lowry, B. T.
Jayne, Attorney W. S. Dlehl, W. B.
Christmas, Rowland Thomas, Hon
John II. Fellows, Attorney H. S. Al
worth and Hon. James Molr.

mittee will be held Saturday night.

MET OUT
The Great Trainer Put
His Faith in Nerves.
ENDURANCE HE WANTED
The ablest manager of professional
athletes In the world, Thomas O'Rourko
of Now York City, writing to the pro
prietors of Pulna's Celery Compound on
January 11, said:
"One of tho most Important features
In the training of an athlete Is to Invig
orate his nervous system, and nothing
ever takes the place of Pnlne's Celery
Compound to nccompllsh this! It fa
cilitates getting a man In prime con
dition. In my experience tit handling
uthlejcs i have never found anything
equal to It."
This from u, man of whom the most
wonderful champion In tho world said,
when one of Mr. O'Rotirke's pupils had
won the world's championship: "Tho
secret of O'Rotirke's success I cannot
understand. Wonderful endurance and
nu Inexhaustible supply of nerve force
.distinguishes the men ho conches from
their opponents In every battle."
For the past 11 years Mr. O'Rrourke
had been recognized as tho greatest
trainer in. tho w6rld. While he was
coaching George Dixon, that young
thomas r. o'ltouiiKi:.
althlete was tho world's champion.
Sharkey, who was at first a rough and
tumble giant, under O'Rotirke's train
ing developed Into an oven-tempered,
hardy, strong, rugged boxer.
The above unsolicited words from
Mr. O'Rourko, who by the -way, hus
been the owner of the Broadway Ath
letic Club, the Lenox Club, the Coney
Island Club and Royals Golf Club, and
who is known to be one of the finest
gentlemen among the devotees of the
manly art, tell the whole story. He
found in Paine's Celery Compound na
ture's food for the nerves.
While this remedy has effected thou
sands of cures among those who are
sick, and has restored to healthy life
innumerable men and women whoso
nervous systems have been shattered,
and who nre suffering from the symp
toms of the beginning of a deep-rooted
impairment of the nervous system it
is worth nothing that even those ex
hausting contests where absolutely per
fect nerves are preeminently needed,
this remedy has also been found equally
as beneficial in repairing the exhaus
tion due to the high training.
If such men, who require above
everything else above muscles (which)
cannot develop without good (nerves);
above courage, which no man with
weak nerves ever had who require
above everything else perfect nerves
if such men have found It necessary to
'feed the nerves and brain with the food
nature requires it is good proof that
this greatest of all remedies, the dis
covery of one of America's ablest
professors, accomplishes all that Is
claimed for It.
Every man or woman whose nervous
system Is not in perfect condition will
find that this remedy will make it so!
No other remedy in the world was ever
so universally acknowledged by phys
icians and all those who have manly
and womanly development in hand to
bo so perfectly adapted to cases of fall
ing health and lagging vitality.

THE PRZND-RG4ST
&T
"I Hing an odcring at thy feet,
A heait that throbs for thou;
Oh, make the pledge thine own, my swfet,
Xor tend it back to me."
Nearly every year some one asks, "Isn't the custom of
sending Valentines dying out?"
We ordered more Valentines this year than ever, and
we're selling them faster than usual this early that's one
answer to the question.
These little tokens are losing some of the air of mystery
that always hung about them. Perhaps it's because grown
people have taken to sending so many gifts on St. Valen
tine's Day and putting in a visiting card.
For those who don't want to send expensive presents,
Valentines are the right thing, We have all kinds from
plain little cards up to big things covered with lace and fur-
belows and every one carries the same sweet message.

The matter of employing a cashier

Idcd upon,
tho Enormous Growth of Life Insur
ance. Nothing Is more calculated to give
one an Idea of the stupendous growth
nf llfo Insurance in tho United States
than tho record of Tho Prudential In
surance company, whime minimi state
ment is Just published In this paper.
We find that this company 1ms been
only tvonty-s!x years In existence nnd
hntl In 1STG UHscts amounting to $2,2X1.
Toduy, Its aHHOtn amount to $18,000,000;
the amount It hns pntd to Its policy
holders during Us twonty-slx yearn of
existence Is over ?5S,00O,OO0: while the
number of families enjoying Its protec
tion Is estimated at more thuit olio
million.
These results Indicate the extraordi
nary popularity of The Prudential, a
popularity which owes Its origin to tho
fact that The Prudential was tho first
pompany to meet tho wants of tho In
dustrial chtsses In regard to life Insur
ance, and also was the first to estab
lish a system of quick settlement of
claims.
Tho Prudential management and nltto
tho Prudential policy-holders ure to bo
congratulated upon the success which
every year brings lo their gigantic,
enterprise; a success which Is as grati
fying to the nation nt large as It Is to
tho pioneers of such a useful Institu
tion. To Hear Paderewoki.
