INDUSTRIAL
AND LABOR
OPERATOR OBJECTS TO THE
WEIGHING SYSTEM.
Says It Is Not Practicable, and That
It Would Cause Delays and In
creased Expenses at the Mines.
Cars Would Have to Be Weighed
Before and After Being Loaded.
What He Thinks About the Eight
Hour Day Proposition. D., 1. &
W. Board for Today.
In speaking about the proposed de
mand that will be made by the miners
of tills district to have their coal
weighed and paid for on that basis, u
prominent operator stated to a Trib
une man yesterday that the proposi
tion is entirely out of the question, and
from his point of view the miners
would not be able to make as much
then as they do now. If the operators
were to pay the miners by the pound
or ton each car would have to
be weighed before and nfter being
loaded, scales would have to be
placed In every mine, and in some
places several scales would he neces
sary. Veighmasters would have to be
appointed and paid a good salary, and
there would be many other inci
dental expenses, all of which would
necessarily Increase the cost of get
ting coal on the market.
Another important thing which would
militate agulnst the adoption of the
weighing system would bo the time
lost in weighing every car before and
after being filled in the mines.
The average mine ear will hold about
two ton, but when the dirt and slate is
separated from the coal, the total
weight of the coal is much less. As
suming that every car furnished the
miner in his chamber was weighed be
fore being loaded and again after It
was filled, It would take at least one
minute for each transaction and tend
to decrease the output of the mine.
In regard to the S-hour question,
the operator said It would benefit the
drivers, runners and others who now
work ten hours In the mines, but It
would servo to reduce their wages and
increase the working force necessary
to operate a mine.
If the laborer insists on receiving
the same amount of pay as the miner
and working the same number of hours,
and the miner refuses to pay It, and
discharges the laborer, and does the
work himself, It would greatly restrict
tho output of coal, said the operator.
The miner cannot cut, blast and load
the same number of ears per day him
self thut is done by two men, and this
woidd be a further element In cutting
down tho output of a mine. The oper
ators expect a given colliery to pro
duce u given amount of coal per day
and they will not look with favor on
any scheme that restricts the output.
The Big Power House.
On the site of the old rail mill, la tho
little valley through which the Itoar
lng Brook enters the city, tho work of
digging for tho foundation of the big
power house that Is to supply motive

tho contract for Its erection and equip
ment has been awarded to Westing

BUSH HAS PAID BILL.
His Attorney Advised Him to Settle
Up With Water Company.
AVilliitm Hush, of the Eighteenth
ward, has decided to abandon his pro
jected suit against the Scranton Gas
and Water company to compel that
corporation to charge him a meter rate
for his property, on Hailroad avenue,
Instead of a yearly rate.
He waited on President Scranton yes
terday morning, accompanied by his
attorney. After the whole matter had
been thoroughly discussed, his attor
ney advIl-od him to pay according to
the yearly rate, and he did so, paying
also $2.50 for shutting oft and turning
on the water again.
It will be remembered that Jlr. Rush
had been paying for his water accord
ing to a meter rale, when the company
decided to charge him a yearly rate.
When he discovered that the yearly
rate was far higher than the meter rate
he refused to pay it, whereat tho water
was shut off. He then threatened to
bring a suit In equity.
President Scranton said yesterday
that Rush kept a saloon up to a year
ago, and for this reason secured a
meter rate, being a large consumer.
When tho saloon was given up the
yearly rate was put in force.

pictures have visited and searched in
every remote corner of tho earth and
have spent not only days, but months
nnd even years In their determined ef
forts to secure the life motions of some

picture advancement, as his high-class
exhibitions always attest, and this sea
son's show far eclipses all his previous
efforts.

Extra Efforts to Insure Safety Being
Taken at Lyceum Theater.
Extra efforts have been recently made
by the Casey brothers, owners of the

from tho rest of tho house so that In
case of a flro behind the scenes there
would bo no danger of Its spreading

With this end In view a handsome
asbestos tiro curtain has been purchased
and hung In front of the regular cur

FRENCH FOND OF SNAILS.
But Americans Are Slow to Appre
ciate This Dainty.
1'rom the New York Sun.
French statisticians have discovered
that during last winter 800,000 tons of
snails wero consumed In Paris, This
Indicates a renaissance for the sail,
for although It has always been es
pecially esteemed by the French peo
ple, it has fallen Into disfavor for a
season or two past, owing to the fact
that the culture) of the snail has been
taken up largely by speculators, who
have aimed at quantity rather than
quality In their productions.
Many of tho snails sold In Paris
really como from. Burgundy and tho
Savoy districts, but are represented as
from the vineyards of DIJon nnd Ma
con. One of the methods of tho specu
lating snail glowers Is to raise them In
pens of tarred boards that prevent the
inollusks from traveling far.
Much depends on the proper culture
of tho snail. In ancient Rome, tho
raisers fed them on flour nnd wine,
thus giving them fatness and flavor,
Americans as a class do not share the
enthusiasm of the French us regards
the snail. The care that Is necessary
for their proper preparation debars
thorn from the field of tho average
cook absolutely, and great chefs fal
sometimes If they have not the proper
French blood In their veins. Even at
tho fashionable restaurants It Is often
Impossible to obtain snails. When they
ure served they aro tough nnd leathery,
and people wonder why they have ever
been Included In tho lists of good
things.
At the French restaurants, tho best
of theso establishments only, can one
get snails cooked properly, arid persons
who huvo once tasted them return
again and "bring friends whom they
wish to surprise with a new dish.
"Keep to the Right"
With oyes open. Tomorrow's
papers lny tho mystory bnre.
I
"Wo servo quantities of snails each
day," said a well-known French re
tiumtcur. "Whllo Americans do not
generally appreciate the snnll, they are
learning to regard them as quite an up-to-date
dish to order. Tho preparation
of tho snnll for cooking requires care.
They nniBt first bo taken from their
shells with a little salt nnd washed In
cold water many times, then drained
nnd placed In a slew pan covered with
water, salted'. This method Is called
a la Bourgogne, and Flllptnl, who for
so many years was with Dclmonlco and
was famous for cooking snails, declared
It tho best wuy la which to serve them.
"A bunch of herbs Is added to tho
snails In tho stew pan, with cloves nnd
whole peppers tied In a bag. Tho snails
aro cooked until they full from their
shells; no longer. Then they are
emptied, the tails clipped off and tho
shells are scrubbed thoroughly. Somo
shallots, parsely, butter and some cher
vil chopped fine are put In a bowl with
sifted bread crumbs nnd one glass of
white wine nnd are mixed to a paste.
"The shells are partly filled with this
paste, the snails replaced and more of
the mixture used to fill. Then they arc
put In a baking dish and are browned
for four minutes."

You have but a short time in which to visit the
Great CIosingOut Bale
The Roberts-Wicks Co.
High-grade, Tailor-made, Union labeled
CLOTHING.
Are you going to let this golden opportunity pass ?
Are you not. aware of tne fact that we have clothed masses
of people from this city and all over this valley ? Are you
so unwise that you will let an opportunity like this one
pass unnoticed ? II not, come to this sale AT ONCE.
You have u head and know a good thing when you see it.
Come here and use your head to good advantage. Why, a,
child can see the values in the Genuine Good Clothing' we
are selling at this
wift and Sweeping Safe.
We are selling clothing that has a record second to
none in this city. No one can or ever will sell again at
such ridiculously low prices, and right here will say we too
would not be doing this very thing if wo were not going
out of the clothing business in this city. We move to
Pittston, Pa., on April 1st, 1902, and cannot move the
men's clothing.
$4.98 buys a full suit that formerly sold from $12.00 to
$15.00. $6.48, $7.98 and $9.98 will secure garments you
can afford to buy for "future" wear, if not for present use.
The values are so apparent. Come and get your suit for
EASTER DAY. Do not look ill-dressed with this oppor
tunity before you. Sale Closes March 29. We must
vacate store on the 1st of April. This is the last call.
Cordially yours,
408 Lackawanna Ave.,
Charles H. Crowell, Manager. Scranton, Pa.
Every Year
We do more business.
How is it done? We know; by
experience and watchfulness for
possible improvements, our
monthly trips to the markets of
the world, and our special buying
facilities enable us to get just
ahead of the other fellow for styles
and values. We handle only the
the best, see our spring line of
Hats, Storm Coats,
Neckwear, etc
It will be worth your while.
