THE MAYOR'S NOMINEES
i FOR BOARD OF HEATH
Dr.'! John A. Kelly, John P. Collins,
'George W.-Norris nnd Patrick G.
McDonough Aie Named, hut Their
Confirmation Put Over One Week.
Other Doings of Select Council.
Mayor O'XelH's choice of members
for the board of health, who'-e an
nouncement was preceded by u good
deal of speculative Interest, was made
known last ulRht, when he sent the
following names into select council for
conlirmatlon:
Dr. John .. Kelly, one year; to suc
ceed Dr. .. P. lllllis, resigned.
George V. Xorris. lour years; to
succeed A. C. Tllfany, teim expired.
John 1J. Collins, live years; lo soc
cer d Alex Wyllle, term expired.
Patrick O. McDonough, four years;
to succeed K. H. AV. Panke, moved from
district.
IMeiest centered in these appoint
ments, as it will bo remembered that
during Mayor Kllp.itrlck's term, select
council persistently refused to coullriu
the names he sent In.
The appointments of 'last night were
not continued, as was expected in some
quarters. When they were lead, Mr.
Munnlon moved that they be lpferred
lo the judiciary and legislation commit
tee, with Instructions to report at tiie
next meeting of council. Dr. Fletcher
'was the seconder, tile inoliouprevall
iug. Tile names weie accordingly giv
en' to committee, with instructions for
u leport, two weeks hence.
The element that worked to the delay
in confirmation was the secretaryship
of the board. This is u. position which
Is being somewhat eagerly sought for,
and which indicates some Interesting
developments. The postponement of
confirmation last, night was an adroit
move on the part of the supporters of
one of the candidates, who seems to
wield the greatest Influence.
The session of council as a brief
one, though all the matters disposed
of wore quite important.
The summarized report of the annual
statement of the city controller will be
made public this year. The common
council resolution directing that the
report bo published was reported on
favorably, with the amendment that
the report be summarized. The com
mittee's recommondution was adopted.
The ordinance providing for the an
nual tax levy of ten mills, with u poll
tax of one dollar was received and
was passed on two readings.
The bonds of City Treasurer Connor
for S.'O.OOO, and City Controller Kvans,
weio presented by the city solicitor
with his approval, and were accepted
by council.
BUTTONS CAUSE TROUBLE.
Disorder on Two Trolley Cars Be
cause Car Men Are Minus Them.
The first disturbances on or about the
street car lines in this vicinity since the
recent strike, were committed on Satur
day uvenlng and on Sunday evening,
when the union buttons worn by tho
street car men, or rather the absence
of thn buttons, caused a good-slzcd
mlx'-up on two oecnslons,
The first trouble was at May field

notice of the absence of the buttons on

SOLDIER'S HONORS
FOR ALVAH W. DALEY
Impiessive Burial Bites of a Well
Known Carbondale Citizen Laid
nt Best Amid Many Tilbutes of
Bespcct Grand Army Post Pres
ent at Services.
The late Alvah D.i'jey was laid at
rest yestetday. lie was taken lo his
final sleeping place In Maplewood cem
etery with all the honors of a soldier
and amid all the tilbutes of respect
that a good citizen and a kind, help-

lloilul.
till neighbor can claim when his fi lends
and acquaintances gather to take their
farewell of him.
The funeral took place at "..".0 in thp
afternoon, from the residence on 'Wash
ington street, and while the outpour
ing of friends was exceedingly l.uge,
tiie most conspicuous feature of. the
obsequies was the large number of army
bluecoats and caps, worn by the mem
bers of William 1J. Davies' post, (.'.rand
Army of the Uepublic, the comrades
In .alius of -Mr. Daley, and his brothers
of the pot loom for neatly twenty
yearn. All the icspect that the old sol
diers could show for their departed
comrade anil their late quartermaster
was indicated in their manner and
their speech nt the obsequies. At the
grave In Maplewood, the army men,
led by their commander. Colonel 'John
McUoinb, made the llnal showing of
honor to the depaited soldier, by ob
serving the ritual of the Grand Army
as the deceased was laid beside the
sleeping dead.
Services at the house were conducted
by Kev. Charles K, l.ee, pastor of the
First Presbyterian church. The casket
was draped with the Ameiican Hag, the
symbol which attested the patiiotic loy
alty and devotion of the deceased. On
the national colors lay the floral em
blems that came from dear friends, ills
comrades and the Women's Relief
corps, William U. D.tvies' post.
After the Scriptural reading, Rev. Mr.
Lee delivered the eulogy, taking for
his text the passage from Samuel,
wherein Jonathan and David are ex
pressing the regret that will be felt
by the absence of one from the feast.
The absence of Mr. Daley from among
his dally scenes his family, his Grand
Army post was likened to the missing
of one of these Damon and Pythinn-like
companions from the feast. The do
ceased would be missed as a pillar of
the home, which was marred now by
tho vacant places of mother and father;
he would be missed from the places that
cheered each day his presence, and he
would be solely missed from tiie ranks
of the Grand Army post, wheie the
gap could not be filled, Hut the com
foitlng consolations off religion were
the blessings of the mourning ones,
Rev, Mr, Lee pointed out, and he urged
his listeners to avail themselves of
what was offered and be sustained
when the llnal summons come.
There was a quartette present, 11. V.
Clarke, Will Clarke, J. Russell Shep
herd and George Slmpkins, Two selec
tions weie sung, "Abide with Me" and
"Some Day We'll Understand."
When the casket was being borne to
the hearse by six of the post soldieis
tint veterans ranged in line uncovered
during the short procession. Tho dele
gation from Davles' post was perhaps
the largest present nt any of the iccent
funerals of post members. in Mr. Daley
had been an oflleer for several years,
and was uniformly liked by his com
rades. The p.tllbeareis were from the post
and were: Joseph M, Alexander, Joseph
Vundormark, AVIlllani II. Williams, M,
D, Kngllhh, William U, Chase, Freder
ick W. Mills,
H. M. Ttitllo was the llug-lieaier In
tho procession, and John Llngfelter and
George lledden wote the ensigns.

His Beautiful Tribute to Alvah W.

Post Meeting.
At Davles' post headquarters yester

btarted In a body to conduct the funeral
services over the remains of the late

THE CANDY STORE CASES
The Proceedings Under the Sunday
Closing Beform of Last Winter
Quashed by the Court Yesterday
on Technical Defects of the Record.
Tho test case of the prosecutions of
merchants for violating the city ordi
nance by selling candy on Sunday, was
decided against the city yesterday.
The case was disposed of in argument
court on a rule to quash proceeding.
The couit, after hearing tho arguments,
concmred in the judgment of Attorney
Ft ank M. Monughan, of this city, who
had been retained as counsel bv tho
prosecuted merchants, and dismissed
tiie proceedings.
Tho disposition of the case was quite
a legal victory for Mr. Monaghan, the
circumstance of the court arriving at
its decision without any hesitation,
after hearing- ills argument, added
somewhat lo the result.
Tiie case disposed of was the one
against John Blactus, of the New York
candy store, on South Main street. On
January 1! he was arrested on a. war
rant sworn out by Chief of Police Mc
Andrcw, during the time when the cru
sade was on against the candy mer
chants of the town for disposing of
their goods on Sunday. There was a
protest on the part of the merchants
when arrested, and it xvns agreed when
the cases were tried before Alderman
Atkinson to have one of them tested
before the court.
It was this case that came up in court
yesterday. Mr, Monaghan advanced
several reasons why the proceedings
were quashed, alleging, among other
things, that the city ordinance, under
which the prosecutions were carried on,
was unconstitutional. It was hoped
that tho court would go Into this ques
tion and decide whether or not this
ordinance, which is ''claimed by some
attorneys to be In open conflict with the
constitution, Is defective or not. Tho
court, however, found sulllclent cause
in tiie first two reasons advanced by
which the proceedings might be invali
dated. These were that the proceeding
was not brought under the corporate
name of the city of Carbondale. but In
the name of the chief of police. This
would have made it a commonwealth
case Instead of an action by -the city
of Carbondale. The other reason was
that tho evidence was Insufllclent, At
the hearing the city ordinance, which It
was claimed was violated, was not
offered In evidence, Ihe case being dis
posed of on tho assumption that there
was such an ordinance. It was on these
technicalities that the record was de
clared defective and the proceedings
minslied,
The other cases, the Cardella, Hubert,
olc, hinged on this case.'
