SMALLPOX SITUATION.
Authoiities Are Somewhat Alarmed
nt Vfnol's Case Misadventure of
Quarantine Officer Max Long.
No new cases of smallpox were reported-
to the buteau of health yester
day but the health authorities are not
as confident as they were u week ago
that the spread of the disease has been
checked.
This Is due to the case of Edward
Vinol, leader of tho orchestra at the
Star theatre, who is suffering from a
mild attack of tho disease at his home
hi Forest court. This Is the first case
which clould not bo directly traced to
the Brace household in which the dis
ease first made its appearance In this
cty.
All the West Scranton sufferers from
the disease contracted It by visiting
the Brace home, with tho exception of
Mrs. AV. J. Morgans, who was quar
antined in tho house with her husband
who Is suffering from a severe attack
of smallpox und who contracted It
while nursing him.
This fact led the health authorities
to be very sanguine over the outlook,
believing that the disease could be
kept confined to the homes of those
persons who visited the Brace house.
The case of Vinol changes the situa
tion. Just how ho contracted the dis
ease is a mystery but that he has It
and that a great many people were
exposed to the danger of contagion he
cause of his presence at his dally work
are assured facts.
It will be twelve or fourteen days
before it can be definitely known
whether any cases of the disease de
velop from contact with Vinol and un
til this period' Is over it will be im
possible to predict what the final out
come will be.
When the quarantine officer who goes
on duty at 7 o'clock In tho morning
came to relieve Mux Long, the night
man at the Vinol home yesterday, he
found the house unguarded. He
searched' in the neighborhood for I.ong
but being unable to locate him, re
potted the matter to police headquar
ters. Long turned up eaily in the after
noon with a badly battered up face, one
of his eyes being nearly olofled. Theie
was also u nasty gash under his chin.
He said that somebody or something
had struck him while on duty yester
day morning shortly after U o'clock.
He semed dazed and when closely ques
tion was unable to give a satisfactory
account of the alleged assault or acci
dent. Neither did he offer any ex
panatlon as to why ho had gone home
after he tecovered his senses.
Inquiry revealed the fact that Long
is an epileptic and it Is believed that
ho was stricken with an attack while
on duty and Injured himself by fulling
on his face. He was relieved from fur
ther duty by Superintendent of Po
lice Day.
The annex of St. Cecelia's academy,
which Is directly in the rear of the
Vinol home, was closed yesterday as
a matter of precaution, and the one
hundred and fifty pupils who have
been attending It were transferred to
St. Thomas college, where classes were
taught on the third floor. Tho classes
In the main academy building were
continued as usual. The boarding pu
pils were sent to St. Rose's convent In
Carbondale on Sunday and will remain
there for the present.
ALMOST A BLIZZARD.
Only Needed a Lower Temperature
to Moke It One Trolley and
Steam Roads Blockaded.
AVliat possessed all the elements of a
blizzard, except extreme cold, prevailed
yesterday all over tho territory north
of Tennessee, south of tho Great Lakes
and cast of the Mississippi. It origin
ated in Georgia, swept down to tho
Bermudas and then making a turn,
skipped over the ocean until It not
abreast of New Jersey, when It turned
landward, spread Itself out and swept
over tho cast and as far as the Mis
sissippi, It was jubt cold euouuh In the tenl
tory uffected to bring the moisture
down In the form of a mealy snow. Tho
nccompanylng wind gathered this up
as iafct as It fell and whirled It about
In uneven drifts. Now York Insisted it
was having n blizzard, The tempera
ture, however, was never below 18,
Hete and hereabouts the wind was
the most annoying feature of tho storm.
The lowest tho thermometer went was
22, which was at S o'clock p. in., and at
1 o'clock this morning It was only 23.
Tho storm set In before daybreak and
was still prevailing ut " o'clock this
morulas'. Four Inches of snow had
fallen up to 8 o'clock p, m., and by
midnight another inch had been tilled
on ton of that.
Most of the snow fell during yester
day morning, nnd as a consequence
travel was greatly Impeded. No. trolley
earn were run on the Duryea, Plttston
or Throop lines, nnd on tho Laurel Hill
line the roud was closed most of tho
day beyond Qulncy avenue. Curs were
run very Irregularly on such lines as
were open, and on the Carboudnle line
the single car that was in operation
lust flight was stalled at Dickson City.
The steam roads were nlso caused
considerable trouble by tho drifting
snow., The Lackawanna had four snow
plows' working und managed to keep
their trains within nn hour of sched
uled time, The Delaware und Hudson
locul trains were not delayed to any
greut extent, but tho Saratoga, which
arrives from Nineveh at 10.33 p. m., did
not reach here until 1,10 a, in. Nearly
two hours'of this delay was caused by
u wait for the Albany train.

AN AUBURN CONCERN. "'
Secretary Atherton announced, In lieu
of a report from tho manufactures com
mittee, that he Is In communication
with the proprietors of a, plant for the
manufacture of ball-bearings, located
In Auburn, N. Y,, and that there Is a
strong probability of their being in
duced to come to Scranton. The plant
employs one hundred men.
A communication was read, addressed
to A. 11. Wnrmnn by the oiricers of Sam
Sloan division, No. 27G, Brotherhood of
Locomotive Engineers, requesting him
to use his Influence dn securing the as
sistance of the board of trade In the
movement on foot to bring the 1904 con
vention of the brotherhood to this city.
It was stated In the communication
that the convention would bring over
COO engineers here from all parts of the
country, as well ns something like 330
ladles, representing the auxiliary or
ganization. It was pointed out that the conven
tions of the brotherhood differ from
other conventions in thnt the delegates
remain In session for u solid month,
Instead of for only a few days. A spe
cial committee, comprising A. B. AVnr
man, F. L. AVorniser nnd S. E, AA'ey
land, was appointed tp give assistance
to the brotherhood committee in their
efforts to secure the convention.
FIGHT TO REDUCE RATES.
A communication was read from the
AYest Side board of trade, requesting
tho co-oprration of the central body in
u light to secure a reduction In the
water rates. Mr. Atherton first 'moved
thnt the board's attorney be authorized
to act with tho AA'est Side board's at
torneys in the matter, but it was finally
decided to refer the matter to commit
tee for careful consideration.
Some little discussion was created by
an endeavor to secure the passage of a
resolution providing for the posting of
members who may be in arrears for
their dues. It was Anally decided to
lay the whole question over, it being
generally agreed that the posting ot
members would not make a very de
sirable impression on visitors to" the
rooms.
The discussion qn this question
brought out the statement from Sec
retary Atherton that tho paid-up mem
bership of the hoard is now 10.1, which
is the best and cleanest record ever
before reported.
Tho resignation of J. George Huf
nagle, of Dickson City, was accccpted,
and the applications for membership ot
V. L. Phillips and F. H. Gerlock weie
received.
The following teport of the recent
meeting of the national board of trade
was read by Colonel F. L." Hitchcock,
who represented the local board with
J. A. Lnnslng:

BOTH CHAIRMEN
ARE CONFIDENT
Chittenden Predicts tho Election of
Morris and Schadt Says Cos-
tello Will Win.
It would be hard to devise a more
disagreeable day for the close of a cam
paign than was yesterday. Tho men
who had work to do In connection with
today's battle labored under great diffi
culties. From both sides of tho political fence
the snow was looked upon with scant
favor, for it mean that the vote today
will bo smaller than if the snow had
postponed Its visit until AVednesday.
The indications are that the vote will
not bo heavy, but that it will be quite
up to the mark set last fall.
Chairman Chittenden, of tho Repub
lican city committee, was very confi
dent of the outcome of today's voting,
when seen by a Tribune man last even
ing. "This snow will probably make the
general vote a little lighter than it
otherwise Would be." he said, "mil I
am coniident that we are going to win
tomorrow and that when tho votes are
counted it will be found that Evan R.
Morris is elected controller by not less
than SOO majoilty. As I view It, that is
it very conservative estimate, and Is
based upon a careful and conservative
consideration of the situation in each
of the twenty-one wards of the city.
"I wish the votets of Scranton could
bo thoroughly aroused to the Import
ance of this election'to them. There Is
no man who Is closer to the taxpayers
than the controller. He is THE man,
and If he understands his business and
Is honest the city can't go far wrong
in any direction. It's a very vital ofllce
and the man who fills it ought to be
one well equipped for the position.
"The training Evan Morris has had
for years In the city clerk's ofllce spe
cially fits lilin for the controller's office.
The duties of the two offices so dove
tail into one another that a man who
knows tho business of tho cltv clerk's
office necessarily knows what, a cltv
controller ought and ought nut to do.
Besides his specla'l training for the
ofllce, Mr. Morris Is a man of convic
tion and opinions, who knows his own
mind and has the courage to do tho
honest and the right thing np,ainst all
kinds of pressure. Ills unswerving
honesty and courage have been fre
quently demonstrated since he became
assistant city clerk, and because of
these special qualities he possesses I
believe the people of Scranton will
mnke a great mistake if he is not elect
ed today."
Chairman Schadt, of the Democratic
city committee, wab also In a confident
mood, when seen.
"It's been a quiet campaign," he said,
"and we have not done much shoutfng,
but we are going to win tomorrow, and
when the votes are all counted Costello
will be 1,'JOO to the good."
The Republican city committee will
receive returns tonight In Republican
headquarters. Chairman Chittenden re
quests Republican poll workers to re
port tho result to headquarters as soon,
by either telephone, us the vote for con
troller Is completed.
STORIES DO NOT AGREE.
Inquest lu the Case of Peter King, of
Minbokn, Who Was Killed by
Michael Davis.
An Inquest In the enso of Peter King,
of Mluooka, who was killed by Michael
Davis, n police officer of Mooslb, In
Sullivan's saloon, Mluooka, earlv Sun
day morning, was conducted In tho
grand jury joom of thu court house, by
Coroner Sultry, last night.
Four of the dozen or moiq eye-witnesses
of tho tragedy, selected Indis
criminately, were sworn. Three of them,
Patrick Loftus, Patrick Sullivan and
Thomas Sullivan, agreed that tho as
sault was entirely unprovoked, Tho
fourth, Gustave Dietrich, testified that
King made three different attempts to
assault Davis, and that ho was In tho
act of attacking him when Davis drew
his gun nnd llred,
District Attorney Lewis nnd County
Detective Phillips were present at tho
hearing, and the district attorney ques
tioned each witness bearohlngly. Steno
graphic notes of tho testimony weio
taken, nnd at tho conclusion of the In
quest, tho witnesses who had not been
called to testify were taken Into iho
dish let attorney's olllce and examined,
Tho jury contented itself with the
fonuul verdict that the deceased had
come to his death by pistol wounds In
flicted by tho accused. The jurors were
John J, Coyne, Frank Toole, Michael
Gibbous, John St, John, P. S, Lowrey
nnd Thomas F, Coyne,
Coroner Sultry made a post-mortem
examination of King's body yesterday.
He declares that either one of the three
wounds would neeessurlly -cause death.
What caused thu almost instant deatli
was tho severing of the aortu by the
bullet which entered the center of the

PAINES CELERY COMPOUND
rinkes Nerve Fibre and Nerve Force, Cleanses the
Blood and Strengthens and Gives Tone to Every
Function of the Body.
"As a medicine for doing Immediate
and effective work In sickness, resulting
from Impaired nerves and Impure blood
my family considers you Palne's Celery
Compound without a peer." "It
strengthens and gives tone to the sys
tem." "It has saved ninny it doctor's
bill. ,
So writes J. J. Donuhuc. Chief of
Polio of Omaha, to the proptletors ot
this never-falling remedy. Palne's
Celery Compound makes nerve fibre
and nerve force, nnd hnpni'ts true
health to body and brain. It Is the
only known positive cure for nervous
prostration, resulting from business
responsibilities, Irregular habits und
overwork,
Palne's Celery Compound Is the one
great remedy for dyspepsia and weak
nerves. Dyspepsia Is caused by acuto
inflammation of tho nerves centred
about tho stomach. Palpitation of tho
heart, dizziness, eardlllgla nnd disten
tion of tho stomach are common In dys
pepsia. Languor and Irresistible
drowsiness are certain symptoms.
Palne's Celery Compound keeps thu
muscular walls ot the stomach In vig
orous action until tho process of
digestion Is made complete. It restores
energy, gives renewed vigor tb all af
fected parts, checks dizziness and al
lays heartburn. It is a safe and reli
able cure for nervous dyspepsia.
Palne's Celery Compound 'will build
up weakened and inflamed nerves,
keep the stomach, liver and kidneys
In healthy action, nnd make mind
and body healthy. It Is the greatest
reconstruotant of the nervous system
known to medical science. It perma
nently cures nervous exhaustion. It
Is particularly efficacious In all cases
where the afflicted are "worn out" and
"run down."
If you have tho first symptom of
falling health, if you are conscious that
something is wrong, that you lack
strength, It the buoyant feeling of per
fect health does not return after each
night's sleep, it is time to give tho
nerves and blood the food that Nature
requires. Palne's Celery Comppund Is
rightly called Nature's medicine.
Medical science has failed to nro
duce its equal as a nerve tonic and
vltalizer. It purifies the blood, restores

Upwards of twenty-live guests, all
lelc.tives of Mr. Thompson, attended
tho dinner and a most delightful time
was enjoyed by all. Mr. Thompson
himself entered into the festivities with
as much zest and enthusiasm as tho
smallest child present.
It is questionable If there is an oc
togenarian In the country as well
preserved as Mr. Thompson. He asked
a Ttibune man last night to stale
fr.mkly how old he looked and the lat
ter was obliged to say "not a day over
fifty-five." Indeed there are many
men fifty-five yeais old who look far
more aged than does Mr. Thompson.
There isn't n wrinkle on his face and
his closely cropped beaid and spry
cairlage make him appear almost
young.
"I don't feel old," said he, "and until
1 do I'm not going to admit that I am
old, I'm just as spry as my son Is to
day. He's fifty-three years old but he
Isn't a bit more active than I am. I
feel ns If I could do a hard day's work
today just as much as I did forty years
ago, but I don't need to. I worked ns
hard as any man could work until I
was over seventy and then I decided
'twas time to knock off and take a
rent. I had enough and more saved up
to live on and I'm spending tho last
j cats of my life quietly. There's no
te.is'on why I shouldn't live to be much
older and If It's In the wood I'm going
ID."
Mr. Thompson was born In Newton
township In 1S22 and came to this city
forty-seven years ngo. He has lived
In the central part of tho city ever
t,mco and has won the highest esteem
of hundreds by his untiring Industry
nnd sterling honesty. He has two chil
