Pow derly, of tho Conclave, the Toast master. Tho fraternal mid social spirit which rules tho Improved Order of Hepti'i nophs was lmpplly shown last night, when the members of Carbondiile con cln;e, and their guests, enjoyed them selves In characteristic style tit u splen did dlimer In the dining hall of the Harrison house. While nil tho gatherings vof Cnrbon dale conclave are u, factor In fostering tho spirit which innkes the neptusoplis '-vlgototis, lust night's function can justly claim more ciedlt for being n means to the end of the UeptnsopliM than any heretofore held under its aus pices. It was n rarely enjoyable even-' ing, and It Is eertuln to be a pleasant topic of conversation at the conclave meetings, and it is likewise certain to be iv factor in" drawing closer the ties that bind tho membeis In their iratcr nnl relations. Characteristic of Carbondale ton clave, It extended Its hospitality to neighboring conclaves and outside of the order. The invitations extended ,bi ought as guests at the conclave's fes tive board, Hon. James O'Neill, mayor of Carbondale: a national officer of the .Heptasophs, of Scranton, national pio vost; William Corless, Scranton, ar 'chon of Electric City conclave; three ;Ulstrict deputies, C C. Donovan, esq., Scranton; James Allen, Peckvllle, and James White, Archbald. Tlie dinner was served at 9 o'clock, after a pleasant exchange of greetings 'among the guests In the ante-room of tho Harrison house. The dining hall of the hotel was most Inviting. ' The tables ran the length of the 100111, and were tastefully decorated with palm". The menu was served In characteristic Harrison house style, which means that the viands and service were all that could be desired. The menu was: Bouillon, fish, roast tin key, cranberry F.iuce, roast beef, boiled ham, mashed potatoes, mashed turnips, sweet peas, chicken salad, lobster salad, egg salad, pickled beetf, olives, celery. Ice cream, .assorted cake, coffee. Appiopriate washes went with the several dishes. After the lighting of the H.ivanas, P. J. Powdeily, archon of Carbondale conclave assumed the role of toast master, in which ho proved an exem pl.tTy presiding ofllcer for a post-prau-dlnl season. Hon. James J. O'nell was the first speaker. He made a characteristically graceful and happy speech. He dwelt particularly on how the Heptasophs kept alive the sentiments and finer feelings in tills practical and material age. C. O. Boland, national provost, dwelt on the woik of the Heptasophs, enthusiastically pointing out Its results since its institution. C. ( Mono van, who is never at a iloss for a humorous story and whose w it never deserts him kept his hearers stirred while ho was on his feet. John W. Dimock, whose wit and humor uluays illuminates the gather ing wheie cither is heard, proved nn 'enjoyable treat for the Heptasophs who keenly appiec'iteed his effoi ts. Addresses wore 'also made by James White and James Acker. SUPT. GARR RE-ELECTED. Chosen, Without Opposition, for a Term of Three Years Director Swi gert's Tribute to Sir. Garr. Klmer K.

The election took place at a special meeting of the school board in tlie cen tral school building, at which all of the dliectois, except President Hughes, weie picsent. WATER COMPANIES ACTIVE.

O. S. of A., Which Is Preparing for It's Anniversary Celebration Brief Hevlew of It's History. Of all secret organizations of Car bondale none at the present time is In o. better condition than Washington Camp, P. O. S. of A., No. 201), of Car bondale, with a membership of nearly 200. The weekly meets that are more nearly what meetings should be; social as well as instructive of the principles of the order nie well attested by the average attendance from week to weelc. The organization was effected about 14 years ago. Shoitly the camp will hold one of their enjopyable anniver saries in the camp loom, at which tlmo they will be entertained by the band, organized under its pationage. A band although young In yp.ua proved Its abilities in the senil-centeuni.il celebra tion of the city last Sejileiubei. During: the past six months the camp laid six to eight membeis on the sick loll. All of which were looked after in the best possible manner. Dur ing that time they had the misfortune of losing two membeis by death. Walter Hounds, having been killed on the Delaware & Hudson rallioad and Henry Perry who died of con sumption. At the present time how ever, all the membeis aie well with the exception of O. W. Gardner who Is Impioving. Of the membeis to be accouled honor for securing new recruits Kdwurd U Stevens Is deserving of the most credit, having proponed as many as five at one meeting; with F. H. Smith as a good second. The officers are I. H. Colvln, presi dent; O. O. Fidiani, vice president; John Havencamp, master of forms; Pert Durgee, past president; George A. Crosby, recording secretary; F. H. .Smith, financial secretary; Paul Ber ton, treasuter. Jlr. Perton is referred to by the mem bers us the "watch-dog" of the treas ury. Tills tenn is applied because of Ids fidelity and his watchfulness. Mr. Perton has filled this office since the camp was instituted, fourteen yenis ago, and It is conceded that no bet ter man could be chosen. FILIPINO BOLOS AND FLAG. Interesting' Display of Relics in Park Clothing House Window. Theie is a display of Filipino relics in the Main street window of the Park Clothing store that Is attracting a good deal of Interest. The display is not only inleiestlng, but it is highly instructive. It gives us a good idea of the means of attack of our waning neiglibois on the other side of the earth in the Philippines, where the United States soldier boys are having some hot lighting. The dis play is a collection of Filipino bolos, which translated means as ugly a set of swords and daggers that you would t-irt to see. They are the pioperty of Captain Thomas Jluipliy, the local rep-res-entatlve of the Intel national Corre spondent e schooN. Captain Murphy took these ugly, but nevertheless inter esting, weapons of war from tlie Philip pines after his two jears'service of the hardest kind or fighting. They aie be ing exhibited in connect Inn with the correspondence school's display of its courses of study. In tlie exhibition there are bolos fioin every Island in the Philippines. Most of them are about a foot long and have wooden sheaths, iiio natives aie dex terous and expert and, above nil, feroc ious in the use of the sword-like knives and terrible desti notion Is wrought to the anatomy of the American soldier when the Filipino can get close enough to him before being wounded. Tho weapon from the Island of Moro, where the fierce engagement took place a few days ago, Is much smaller than tlie others, being in coinpai)sou not mora than a big-sized dagger. Perhaps the most Interesting of tlie exhibit Is tho Filipino flag. It is red, white and blue, about three feet squiuo. Theio Is a tilunglo of white among- tho tluee colors, on which there is a rlsing sun. Tills is a symbol of the rising generation, which typifies the men who am carrying on the war. Tluee or four crudely painted stars surround the sun. This flag is rare, and it Is one of only three known to be in this section. These thrco were brought here by Cap tain Murphy on his leturn from tho Philippines, T. A. B.

TIMELY TOPICS. Tho residents of Mnyfleld yard, con tiguous to the "Cottage" arc viewing with a good deal of apprehension the extensions of the mine settlings In that locallly, Since Inst fall, what settlings have occurred, has boon gradually creeping towards Mnyfleld, which brings the danger closer and closer to the "Cot tage" and tho nest of dwellings south of this old homestead. Tiic one of last week, which by tho way was the most disastrous of any, was In tho middle of tho roadway at a point not more than a hundred feet north of tho "Cot tage." Tho cracks caused by tho dis turbance extended as far ns the gate opening Into tho big yard surrounding this old landmark. This progressive course of the mine falls gpes rise to tlie fear that the next one will Involve the old homestead. An there Is no telling when or whore the next drop of leal estate is to occur, the uneasiness of property owners enn ,be readily ap preciated. As to the remedy for these disturb ances, there Is none. It appears that tills evil of anthracite mining is one of tho Incurable type. It Is certain that there Is no redress at hand, so the best that the nffectcd and Injured properly owners can do is to mnko a virtue of necessity and have ns big a quota of good nature ns Is possible under such aggravating circumstances. The policy of the coal companies Is to got out tho last pound of coal, without the least thought of protection or recompense for tho helpless owners of property. The cave-In after cavo-ln that has oc curred In the Mnyfleld yard section during the past year has been costly to several property owners, while the Scranton Railway company has been a heavy looser, as it's tracks have been involved in nearly every cave-in. Tho Consolidated Wuter company has hud It's main supply pipe broken three times, and the Ontario & West ern load has been deprived of water for it's shops as many times. Another) phase of tho situation Is the menace to drivers who have to use this thoroughfare. On several occasions, horses all but walked Into tho holes In the roadway, and on Friday last when the ground began to settle a street car wan just entering the affected area, and was only saved from being wreck ed by the presence of mind and activ ity' of the lnotorman in reversing and backing the car out of the zone of danger. Traffic, along this road has been interrupted for days succeeding a fall. These are a few of tlie num erous effects of this apparently Ir remediable mining evil, which is likely to continue so long as the "robbing" of pillars is in pi ogress. The departtue of Terrenco V. Walker from Carbondale for the West deprives the city of one of It's hustling enter prising young men, a young man whose push and go-aheadativeness when withdrawn fiom a community Is sure to be missed. Mr. Walker leaves for Chicago, today where he will re-enter the service of the Intel national Correspondence schools-. His new position Is an ad vanced one and the management of the schools pay a. great compliment to Mr. Walker's fitness and ability in making the offer. MISS DAVIS SURPBISED. Reception on Her Heturn from New York City. Miss Sara Davis, who has just re turned ft 0111 New York city, was hap pily surprised last evening, when a throng of her young fi lends filled her home to welcome her back.
