KOSH GETS A NEW TRIAL.
In February, Michael Kos.h was con
victed of having placed an obstruction
nn the Delaware, Lackawanna and
Western tracks, near the Mt. Ploas'int
colliery. The chief witness for the com
monwealth was Frank Jones, and a new
tilal was asked for on tho ground that
Jones was a man given to prevarication,
who could not bo believed under oath.
Judge Kellj" yesterday made absolute
the rule for a new trial, In the follow
ing opinion:
"This defendant was convicted of a
very serious offence. If sentence is to
bo pronounced upon tho verdict, con
sistency requires that It be a substan
tial one. -t'pon full consideration ot tho
evidence given at the time, and upon
tho rule for a new trial, we are reluc
tant to pronounce sentence upon him,
without giving him the benefit of an
other trial. Kule absolute."

STONECUTTERS' STRIKE.
Agreement to Bs Presented Today to
Carlucci Company Officials.
At a meeting of the executive, com
mittee oE the Stonecutters' union, held
last night In Industrial hall, an agree
ment was drawn up for presentation to
the oflleeiH of the Carlucci Stone com
pany today.
This agreement provides for an eight
hour day, a minimum wage of $3 per
day and a provision providing that tho
yard shall be strictly union and that
none but union stonecuttern shall bo
employed. If the company officials sign
this agreement-today, nnil If tho stone
cutters now employed by the company
either quit work or come into the union,
the strike will bo formally declared off
at a meeting of the union to be held to
night. It Is questionable as to whether all
tho stonecutters now employed by tho
company will come into tho union.
When they remained at work despite
tho strike order they were expelled from
the union and fined $80 each. This fine
has since been reduced a considerable
amount, but some of the men refuse to
pay It.

MISS STONE'S LECTURE.
What They Thought About It in
Philadelphia.
The lecture by Miss Ellen M. Stone nt
the Lyceum theatre, May 19, Is an event
which Is looked forward to by all with
much Interest. Speaking of her lecture
delivered nt the Academy of Music,
Philadelphia, on Saturduy last, the
North Amerlcnn says:
"Miss Stone's story is a dramatic re
cital throughout a story which will
hold one spellbound for hours, and
every sentence Is full of extraordinary
Interest. Hut It Is all so ordlnnry and
commonplace, compared with the ac
count of the birth and care of Ellena
Tsllkn, that one will forget the tale of
surprises, of long marches, of unpalat
able food, of dangers nnd of sudden
frights in a few weeks or months, per
haps, while this history of nativity be
Indelibly Impressed upon the memory.
"The audience which tilled the pit and
orchestra and one gallery of the Acad
emy was characterized by white hair
and gravity of demeanor. There was
almost nn unpleasant austerity about It
all until Miss Stone came upon tho
platform a platform which was unre
lieved in its stern setting by any orna
ment or decoration.
"There was ho music to lend a soften
ing tone, but the returned missionary
brought from the wings a pleasant,
happy air which relieved tho strain Im
mensely. She began to speak in a pleas
ant, conversational voice, and without
the slightest effort to be dramatic, told
a story at once intense and soul-stlr-rlng."
A THRILLING ACT.
It Is Given in the Forepaugh and
Sells Brothers Circus.
Of the Adam Forepaugh and Sells
Brolhei s circus which appears here on
Tuesday, May 20 tho New York Dally
News said:
"What was unquestionably the most
thrilling act of tho evening was th.it
of Minting, the equilillbiist, who rode
a single wheel, or unlcycle, up a nar
row spiral pathway that wound around
and around from the floor of the
Garden to tho dome of the Garden. On
this dizzy road Minting rode his single
wheel both up and down. One misstep
and there would have been a tragedy
to tell. Many of the women in the
audience refused to watch the nervy
rider as ho made the ascent, and
many were the sighs of leliof when ho
leached the bottom again In safety. It
was an act of sheer nerve, and Mint
ing well deserved tho applause that
greeted him on his 'return to the
Garden floor." New York Dally News.

WM. J. HAND
WAS ELECTED
c
CHOSEN AS SCHOOL CONTROL
LER FROM TENTH WARD.
' tin Election Seems to Sottle All
Doubt as to tho Election of Georgo
Wf Phillipn as City Superintend
ent of Schools at Tonight's Moot
ing Questionable Whether Super
intendent Howell's Name Will Be
Even Placed in Nomination New
Delinquent Tax Collectors.
Attorney W. J. Hand, noil of former
Justice Alfred Hand, nnd one ot this
clty'tt best known citizens, was last
night elected by the board of control us
school controller from tho Tenth ward,
to succeed Jacob Hehafter, tcRlgncd.
His election was unanimous, and had
the effect ot giving a pretty clear idea
ns to tho situation nt tonight's meet
ing, when 'a superintendent ot schools
will be elected.
Tho thirteen members who attended
InBt night's meeting' were thoso who
have been counted upon for the past
few weeks ns supporters ot Oeorgc W.
Phillips, who Is a candidate for the
supcrintendencj, while six out ot tho
seven members who were ubscut are
known to be supporters 'of Superintend
ent George Howell, who desires to be
re-elected.
Sir. Hand's name wns placed In nomi
nation by E. J. Leonard, who said that
tho board as at present constituted
would elect a Democrat to fill the exist
ing vacancy If it was not for the fact
that tho Tenth ward Is overwhelmingly
Republican. Mr. Hand Is a. citizen who
has a splendid reputation In the com
munity, Mr. Leonard said, and is a. man
ns well qualified for the position of
school controller ns any one In the city.
Mr. Barker seconded the nomination,
and said that he has known Mr, Hnnd
since childhood and has known him al
ways as a cultured gentleman and a
high-minded citizen.
ELECTION UNANIMOUS.
There being no other nominations, a
vote was taken and the following mem
bers were recorded as voting for Mr.
Hnnd: II. J. O'MnJley, A. B. Eynon, P.
J.. Murphj-, W. J. Welsh, Otto J. Robin
son, Anthony Walsh, T. J. Jennings, O.
B. Schrlerer, F. S. Barker, P. J. Lan
gan, Peter J. Rolf, John Gibbons and
Edward J. Leonard,
It is just about as certain as anything
can bo that all of the above members
will vote for Mr. Phillips tonight, thus
insuring his election. Mr. Christmas,
who was unavoidably detained, is
known as a Phllllps.man, and Mr. Hand
himself will vote for the former super
intendent. The six members who re
mained away from last night's meeting
and who have been supporters of Mr.
Howell from the start, are as follows:
A. L. Francois, John II. Phillips, Den
nis J. Roche, Dr. John O'Malley, B. T.
Jane and Ellas E. Evans.
With Mr. Phillips' election practically
assured, the only question about which
there is any doubt is ns to whether
Superintendent Howell's name will bo
placed before tonight's meeting or not.
It seems to be the general opinion that
it will not, though none of his support
ers can be made to admit this.
W. J. Hand, the new controller, Is a
lawyer possessed of a wide practice and
recognized ns one ot the brainiest and
most capable of tho younger pleaders
at the Lackawanna bar. He is emi
nently fitted for tho position to which
he has been elected, ft 0111 every view
point. He served one term in the com
mon council some years ago as member
from tho Sixteenth ward and demon
strated his ability its a careful and con
scientious representative or the taxpay
er's Interests.
DELINQUENT TAN COLLECTORS.
City Treasurer E. J. Robinson sent in
to the board tit last night's meeting the
following names of delinquent tax col

The Great Spring Health Giver
Makes Sick People Well,
A Prominent Clergyman Tolls
How He Escaped from
His Deadly Perils.
When spring comes with Its gentle
showers, Its balmy nlr, its bright sun
shine and bursting buds, It too often
brings to our homes Scones ot suffer
ing and physical decay. '
Tho seeds of disease which were Im
perceptibly germinntlng during the
winter months, have developed nnd
plantcu In tho. system dangers that now
call for our Instant care rind attention.
Neglect and procrastination will only
deepen existing perils and lead to
death.
Before tho advent of sptlng, you
must have noted symptoms, perhups
of Indigestion, dyspepsia, rheumatism,
neuralgia, kidney disease, liver com
plaint, functional Irregularities, or ner
vous disorders.
Take warning sufferers! the symp
toms you experience are signals of dls
puse. Delay not another day; hesita
tion and Indecision on your part may
forever seal you fate. If you have al
ready made efforts lo banish your
ttoublcs by the use of other medicines
nnd tho treatment ot physicians, nnd
these have failed, wo counsel you to
put your full trust In that great dis
ease banlshcr, Palne's Celery Com
pound. Its use for a week or two will
convince you that you have truly com
menced a new existence. Rev. W. 13.
Aldiidge, a leading nnd prominent
clergyman ot Birmingham, Ala., says:
"I had been afflicted for ten years
with what I thought to be heart dis
ease, but after having the physicians
examine me, I learned that I was al
most dead from indigestion. They told
1 ie thej- could give me medicine that
would relieve me, but there was no
permanent cute. Then 1 began using
Pulne's Celery Compound which gave
use Immediate relief, and I am now
well and enjoying good health. I can
recommend Palne's Celery Compound
to be tho best medicine for all ailments;
if people will use the Compound freely,
they will have no doctors' bills to pay."
