PRIMARIES
IN THE FIRST
REPUBLICANS WILL NOMINATE
A CANDIDATE.
Thoro Are Three Men Who Would
' Like to Servo tho District in the
Legislature nnd They Aro Strug
gling for tho Nomination to Be
Awarded Today by tho Voters Tho
Candidates Aro Joboph Oliver, W.
J. Thomas anil Waltor W, Simpson.
Polls Open at 4 O'clock.
Primaries for tho nomination of u
legislative candidate will ho hold this
afternoon In tho First district between
tho hours of 4 and 7 o'clock. A spirited
canvass Is In progress. Tho contestants
are Joseph Oliver, president of select
council: W. J, TliomaH, also of the
Fifteenth ward; and Walter XV. Simp
son of Providence.
The First district Includes practically
half of tho city. Its representative will
ho olio of two members who with tho
help of their colleagues, will have to
look arter tho numerous and Important
legislative interests of Scranton at
Harrlsburg next winter. Tho fact that
Scranton Is now a city of tho second
class, In company with Pittsburg and
Allegheny, which havo large and In
fluential delegations to enforce their
claims, make It more thnn ever neces
sary in tho judgment of thoughtful
citizens, that the Scranton representa
tives fliould be strong men, with ex
perience In parliamentary methods and
uble to Impress their force upon the
deliberations of the house. Tho unop
posed renomlnation of Representative
Scheuer, James and Phllbln Insures
strong nnd experienced membeis from
the Second, Third and Fourth districts
and the First, It Is recognized, should
provide a colleague similar In those
qualities which make for usefulness.
The high standard of service set for
many years by Representative Farr,
culminating In the establishment of the
West Side hospital, an institution In
which all the people of tho district are
interested, and the need of securing for
this hospital an Increased appropria
tion, are recognized as calling for un
usual care in the choice of today's
nominee.
Each of the three contestants has
points of strength and the nomination
of any one of them would undoubtedly
bo followed by an easy victory at the
polls. It wasi pointed out yesterday,
however, by tho&e giving thought to the
district's future welfare at Harrlsburg
that but one of these candidates has
had an extended acquaintance with
pailiamentary usages. This is Select
Councilman Oliver. His friends yester
day called attention to the fact that he
has been tried In the public service and
found not wanting; that he Is fearless,
independent and untiring; and that bis
nomination would give to tho First dis
trict a representative whom no faction,
clique or clan could control but who
would do his whole duty from the first
day of tho session to tho last. His
active nnd energetic work in behalf of
organized labor through his posit!6n as
member of the executive committee of
the Central Labor union was also em
phasized. While all kinds of predic
tions were in evidence last night it was
the general belief that Mr. Oliver's can
didacy had gained largely and bis
friends professed hopefulness as to the
result.
HEARD A FALSE RUMOR.
.Delegation . from Twentieth Ward
Didn't See Recorder.
The delegation of property owners
from tho Twentieth ward, which was
to havo waited on Recorder Connell
yesterday afternoon to protest against
tho sewer assessment for Section A of
the Eighteenth district main sewer, got
hold nf a false rumor in some way and
did not put In an appearance.
It was learned in tho morning that
tho committee would not coma because
the members had heard that City Solic
itor Watson had declared tho sower
ordinance to bo illegal. As a matter of
fact, the eitj solicitor has made no
such declaration, but has declared him
lbself as bellovlne tho ordinance to bo
drawn up in strict accordance with tho
law.

(rlgr'Tickets for Forty-flftli Recital Now Ready.
CONSERVATORY RECITAL.
It Was Given in Guernsey Hall Last
Night.
The forty-fourth recital 1J$- tho Con
servatory of Music, under tho direction
of J. Alfred Pennington, occurred last
evening in Guernsey hall. As n rule,
these recitals consist entirely of selec
tions for from one to four pianofortes.
Last evening, however, two vocal num
bers were Introduced.
After an ensemble class of eight play
ers had rendered an Idylle by Gurlltt,
Master Frank Laubach appeared as the
first piano soloist, when be played a
polka by Webb. This was his llrst ap
pearance In a leoltal, and he did well.
Mary Ryan played the "Boys' Mcrry-Go-Round,"
by Gade, and "Tho Mill in
tlie valley," by Gaensehals, in a very
pleasing manner. Mnster Ralph Gold
smith, of Green Illdge, was quite a
favorite with the audience in the
"Promerwdo a Ano," by Wnchs.
Among the older students who ap
peared for the first time was Flovd
Hunter, of Jermyn, who gave an excel
lent rendition of the characteristic
"Joyeux Moulin" ("Lively Mill"), by
Hitz. Eva Meixsell, of Hyde Park,
gave the "Marigold Polka" with good
phrasing and pedalling. Helen Hooo
well, in the "Pastorella," by Gregh;
Irene Chemberlln. in "Out on the
Green," by Giese, and Norma Johns, of
Taylor in tho Mazurka in E flat, by
lieins, played with a stylo and finish a3
to deserve special mention. All three
have manifestly unusual talent, and tho
prospects of their becoming pianists are
flattering. The playing of Norma Johns
was smooth, brilliant and showed un
common musicianship for a child of her
age.
Tho three young ladles who gave tho
closing solo numbers were Miss Rowena
Hermann, of Dushoro, Pa., who played
tho "Glockenblumen," by Morley, with
excellent taste; Miss Mary Flower, of
Gouldsboro, who played tho delightful
concert etude, tho "Gulrlnudes," by
Godard, and Miss Clara Browning, who
rendered the difficult and well-known
classic, the Ballade In A Hat major, by
Chopin. Miss Browning, who is a mem
ber of the Conservatory faculty, has
every reason for self-congratulation for
tho mastery of this wonderful tone
poem. Her conception was poetical to
a high degree and her technique ample.
Master David Perkins, soprano soloist
In the boy choir of St. Stephen's Epis
copal church, Wllkes-Barre, was the
vocal soloist. His two selections were
"Daddy," by Behrens, nnd "Charity."
The little fellow has a wonderfully
fcweet voice, and in tho tender and sad
little story of "Daddy" there was a
sympathetic quality which brought the
tears. This pathetic tenderness was
present in all of his singing and, child
though hekis. many a famous singer
would envy him this power of singing
to tho heart. Master David was en
thusiastically recalled, and sang "Sleep,
Little Baby of Mine," and tho well
known Welsh air, "All Through tho
Night."
Tho usual Illustration of the Faclten
System of Fundamental training was
given by Peter Naher, Emily Wilcox,
Martha Richmond and Grace Under
wood in several transpositions of tho
same piece, and the advanced ensemble
class closed tho recital with the over
ture at four pianos of "Romeo and
Juliette," by Bellini.

NO MATERIAL INCREASE.
School Tax Levy Will Bo Very Little
if Any Higher Teachers Will
Got More Pay.
There is every reason to believe
that tho tax levy for school purposes
for tho coming fiscal year will bo very
little If any higher than the levy for
tho present year. President Gibbons
has announced his Intention of pre
venting If possible any material In
crease In the levy.
It is pretty certain that tho school
hoard will pay heed to the teacheis'
persistent requests for an increase In
salary and that their wishes will bo
complied with to a certain extent in
tho compilation of tho budget for tho
next fiscal' year. The teachers have
asked for an increase of twenty-live
per cent in the salaries but It is ques
tionable if the board will agree to mote
than a ten per cent or at the very
highest, a fifteen per cent Increase.
A ten per cent increase would mean
In round numbers about $20,000 extra
to be paid out every year and to be
provided for in the budget. In ad
dition to this there will have to bo
$40,000 provided for No. 40 school now
in process of erection in tho Second
ward and now schools will probably be
provided for to replace No.'s 8 and 11
in South Scranton. This will mean
the appropriation of $100,000 or more
for building purposes unless another,
issue of bonds Is authorized.
President Gibbons favors the issue of
sufllelent bonds to bring the total
amount to be appropriated and raised
by direct taxation down to within at
least hailing distance to the appropria
tion for tho present year or sufllcient
ly low to prevent tho levying of an
additional tax any greater than a
fractional part of a mill more than
for the present year.
Tho chairmen of the several com
mittees havo been requested by the
chairman of the finance committee to
have their estimates ready for presen
tation at next Monday night's meet
ing of the board. The estimate of the
building committee, apart from the
question of new schools, will not be
very large. Tho members of the com
mittee have just completed an ex
amination of all the school buildings
and havo found them all to ho in first
class condition. The only important
improvement which tho committee will
recommend will bo tho Installation of
a new heating plant in No. 25 school
in North Scranton.
A DREAM OF THE ORIENT.
Scranton Art Lovers Are Attracted
by a Rare Persian Rug.
Lovers of tho beautiful and rug con
noisseurs were attracted yesterday by
a recent importation on exhibition at
tho store of Mlchaellnn Bros., at 124
North Washington avenue. The Mlch
aollan Bros, aro among tho largest Ori
ental tug importers in the country and
control three wholesale and retail es
tablishments, one on Fifth avenue,
New York; ono at Washington, D. C
and the store at Scranton. During tho
past eight years that they have been
engaged In tho sale of Oriental goods in
Scranton, they havo shown mnnv ilch
and rnre creations In the way of Turk
ish, Persian and Japanese rugs, which
have found their way to tho homes of
the wealthy and cullmeil residents of
tho city, and their salesrooms always
evoke the admiration of people artis
tically inclined, who h.ivo a passion for
the poe'tie fancies of tho ancient and
modern Oriental rug weavers which can
never bo duplicated in machine made
lloor coverings,
Tho recent Importation, which la one
of the most beautiful and rare ever
brought to Scranton, Is a Kerman
Shah Persian vug, 15x11 in slzo and is
valued at $1,D00. Tho texture and blend
ing of color in Its composition aro al
most marvelous. There aro nearly 400
mips to the square Inch, and In n space
of two inches In some portions tho col
ors of the rainbow nro blended with
skill and delicacy that stamp the pro
duction as tho reality of an artist's
dream.
Tho Mlchaellnn Bros, will ho pleased
to have nil art lovers of the cltv call
and examine this beautiful creation, as
well as others in their establishment,
whether they desire to purchase or not.
Rugs of this design nre usually found
only In tho palaces of tho Oriental
princes or officials of high degree, and
cannot bo purchased at will by tho Im
porter. Scranton admirers of Oriental
rugs should not miss tho onportuntlv
to see this rare and beautiful bit of art,

ONLY ONE
WEEK MORE
THEN THE TRIBUNE'S THIRD
EDUCATIONAL CONTEST WILL
BE UNDER FULL HEADWAY.
Not Enough Entries Have Been Re
ceived ns Yet to Cover tho Scholar
ships Why the Contest Begins
Earlier This Year A Descriptive
Booklet 13 Now Rsady Now Is tho
Timo to Send in Eutrios So ns to Be
Ready for the First Day.
One week from Monday tin third
Eilucattonal Contest of The Trlhuue
will oopii. This Is a trifle earlier than
the opening date of any previous con
test. Tho llrst Educational Contest be
gan on July Cl, 1900, nnd extended to
October 31 of that. year. Tho second
Educational Content began on May 13
of last year nnd ended on August 31.
This year's contest starts on May 5 and
ends on October 25, covering just
twenty-five weeks, or one week less
than six months.
One excellent reason why this year's
contest begins earlier than ever Is that
at this time of the year tho students
(to whom the contests especially ap
peal) have not yof become fully en
grossed with the approaching examina
tions and can get Into' "tho swing" of
tho canvnss and become familiar with
tho rules and conditions before the
closing days of school. Besides this the
earlier soring days aro, the most de
lightful ones of the year for being out
of doors, and the contestant who ex
pects to make any kind of a bid to win
ono of tho scholarships offered as spe
clnl rewards must put in most of his or
her work In the open nlr, making calls
on friends nnd acquaintances. The May
days are pleasant ones to get a start
in, nnd then when the drowsy summer
hours come, with blazing sun and dust
HUed air, tho work will be no systema
tized that the walking will have gotten
down to the minimum.
A Neat Booklet Issued.
The Tribune received from the press
yesterday a neat little booklet of
twenty-four pages, describing the con
test in a summarized way, detailing the
reasons whv the contest should anneal
to the young people, giving the rules,
the list of special rewards, a description
of tho institutions in which the scholar
ships are offered, with their value, and
many other helpful hints. One of these
books will be sent to any ono who de
sires to learn about the Educational
Contest. A large edition has been
printed, nnd they will be sent to every
town, city and village in Northeastern
Pennsylvania within the next few days.
,It cannot be too strongly emphasized
that the best time to begin Is at tho
beginning. Already auite a number of
young ladles and gentlemen have nu
plled to have their names placed on the
entry list, so that when tho contest
opens they will have the advantage of
being supplied with subscription blanks
and other equipment and can start
right out, thereby gaining a lead over
those who may enter the contest later.
So far, though, there have not been
enough entries to fully cover the num
ber of scholarships, so that If thers.
should not be anv more entries and
each of those whose names are now on
the list should turn In but ono point
each, all would be entitled to scholar
ships. Thirty-three Scholarships Offered.
There are thirty-three scholarships to
bo competed for in this year's Educa
tional Contest. In 1901 there were eight,
and in 1900 only five. It will readily be
seen how greatly tho Idea has grown in
tho space of three years. The aggre
gate value of last's year's scholarships
was about $3,000. This year the totifl
cash value of tho thirty-three scholar
ships is nearly $10,000. Last year there
were but nineteen contestants, tho last
one having three points at tho close. If
the same conditions should prevail this
year the nineteenth contestant would
got for his three points, worth $1,25, a
scholarship valued at $120 at least.
There Is another feature this year
which should appeal to the ambitious
young people who intend to work for
all they aro worth. That Is the Special
Honor Rewards. At tho end of each
calendar month tho youns man or
young woman who has secured the
largest number of points during that
month will receive a special reward of
considerable value as a reward for his
or her zeal. This Idea was conceived
because it was thought that it would
bring forth the best efforts of each con
testant. As tho contest will inn Into
six separate months there will bxo six
distinct chances for tho contestants to
earn something In addition to tho
scholarship they will receive at the end
of tho contest. These special honor re
wards will bo entirely independent of
the main contest.
Make Your Decision Now.
Now Is tho best time for parents to
decide whether they wish their children
to try nnd earn an education in an en
tirely honorable manner, or for tho
young people to decide for themselves.
The contest Is not limited to persons of
any age, but, of course, the young peo
ple between tho ages of 12 and 20 years
aro more liable to ho successful. There
is no bar to tho help a contestant
may receive. Parents, brothers, sisters,
uncles, aunts or cousins or any rela
tives or friends may pitch In and help,
by encouragement, good cheer and

Indorsed by tho Ablest and

Celery Compound Is able to do.
Tho work that cannot bo done for tho
sick and sufferinu by months of ex
perimenting with tho common medi
cines of the day, is successfully tarried
to victory vby Pnlne's Celery Compound
in a few short weeks'.
Tho euro of Mr. M-irph proves fully
the assertion made ubove. After years
of failures, inisery.-ngony, and despond
ency, Palne's Celery Compound madj n
"new man" of one who hud become a
mere wreck one who was ftiot noarlng

Have faith, sufferer! You have a

and save you. From today, let your
hope be ct-nlcretl in Palne's Celery
Compound nnd Its mighty power to
cure. It has never disappointed nny
sufferer; it will not fall in your case.
Mr. R. H. Murph. Rich, S. C, under
the direction of a kind Providence, was
led to use the medicine that "makes
sick people well." Ills testimony Is
strong and convincing. It shows un
mistakably that Palne's Celerv Com
pound Is the true health builder for
weak, weary, sleepless, and lun dovui
people at this season. Mr. Murph sav-s:
"I havo had nervous prostration fo
several years. I was troubled almost
continually with nervous headache,
could not sleep well, had become absent
minded, nnd was run down in flesh and
general health. A friend advised mo
to try Palne's ' Celery Compound. I
