the hold-over members, as secretary,
and W. D. EvanB, the successor of II.
J. Ilockenberry, who was elected for
the short term, at the late election, as

IVanaan then named Mr. Gallagher ns

SUMMER COMFORT.
Got Ready for Warm Weather.
By ii complete change, In breakfast, at
this time' of 'the year, one can put tho
body'rlght to go through the summer
comfortably,-
Leave off meat, potatoes and heavy
body heating foods, and use the food
that will nourish the body and give re
servo foico to the brain and nervous
eystem.
A ''most appetizing and healthful
break,fust can be made on Grape-Nuts
and cream, some fruit and perhaps two
soft boiled' eggs this meal will furnish
full strength und nourishment up to the
next und haB a remarkable effect on the
body during hot weather. Remember
tho colls of the body you are now (build
ing will last you Into summer, so bo
sure and build tho kind that tend to
keep a cool body and level head,
Ono pound of Grape-Nuts has more
nourishment that the system will ab-eorb-than
ten pounds of meat, without
any of tho Internal heat of meat that
a person wishes to avoid during the
wom season; Its rich, nutty flavor
added to the delicate sweet of the grape
sugar makes a dish pleasing to the
most critical taste,
Yoi receive Grape-Nuts fiom the gro
fcer ready to serve, as It has been thor
oughly cooked at the factory, by food
experts, and this suves heat from cook-
Ing and time und exertion necessary
n preparing ordinary food.
A change from the old breakfast to
lane like this will refresh and Invigorate
(the system In a surprising manner and
permit you to enjoy the pleasures of
summer in a cool, comfortable fashion

THE TOWNSHIP BOARD.
School Directors Elect Officers for
This Year Interesting Meeting.
At an Interesting meeting, held In
the Powderly school house yesterday
afternoon, the school board of Carbon
dale township reorganized ns follows;
President, W. J. Gordon; secretary,
James Gcrrlty; treasurer, Thomas
Qulnn. No other business was con
sidered, Mr. Gordon enters upon his fifth year
as president of the school district.
The result of the election was sqmo
v.hat of a Btirprlso. Thomas Qulnn,
tho secretary last year, was named as
treasurer, to succeed M. J. McDonald,
who hold the office for twelve years.
James Gcrrlty's election as secretary
was somewhat' unlocked for, as It was
believed that President Gordon, tho
(indent chairman for four years,
would bo nampd for that ofilco. A deal
"or agreement, however, was made over
the offices of secretary und treasurer,
which restrited in Gerrlty and Qulnn's
election.
The board will meet this morning to
fix the mlllnge for this year. There Is
likely to be an Interesting time before
this Is disposed of.
. V
ALL OUT BUT POUR
The Strike Order Obeyed in Carbon
dale Except by Quartette of Engi
neers of D. & H. Co. .
Only four of the engineers and pump
tenders In Carbondale are at work in
disregard of the strike order that was
made effective yesterday throughout
the anthracite region.
The four at work are in the employ
of the Delaware and Hudson company.
Three are at No. 1 and one at No. 3
mines.
All of the firemen went out. Their
abandonment of work, however, did
not Interfere with the operation of the
pumps. Their places were filled by
foremen and other minor bosses. The
shutting down of the Racket Brook
washery, which took place yesterday,
contributed severnl hands to take the
place of the men who went out.
The engineers at work are not af
filiated with the United Mine Workers.
They regard the strike order tas Im
prudent, and they do not see how they
could better themselves by leaving
their places at the present time.
There was not only no trouble at any
of the plnces but there was not even
the thought of any disturbance or In
terference. In this respect Carbondale
Is perhaps giving the officials the least
worry. They have shown this by not
maintaining any kind of a barricade,
means of resistance or a patrolling
force of any sort. Of course, there are
employes acting ns coal and Iron po
lice, but the Delaware and Hudson
company's pioperties are not sur
rounded with any lines of fences to
keep trespassers off.
CAN TTJHN ON WATER,
Park Fountain Resolution Passes
Select Council Other Business.
The water In the public troughs, and
In the park fountain, will probably be

council resolution directing that this be
done was concurred In by select council
at Its meeting last night.
In response to the appeal of Messrs.
Moon, Burnard and Edwards, residents
of Eastern avenue, who appeared be
fore council, It was decided not to
change the name of the avenue to
"Beth Eden" place, but to have It re
main Eastern avenue. The requests for
the removal of a tree at the Intersect
tlon of "Wayne street and the opening of
the avenue to Lincoln avenue were re
ferred to committee.
The ordinance providing for a hydrant
at Fallbrook and Scott streets was re
ported favorably, and the Masters' ordi
nance for additional arc lights in the
Fifth ward uassed llrst and second
readings.
The session was a brief one.
Started on Western Trip.
Druggist Joseph H. Kelly and ex
Common Councilman John T. Loftus

there will return along the northern
border to Chicago and thence home.
They will stop In Denver to Inspect tho
site which the Carbondale Development
company proposes to develop for Its
minerals, etc, They will be absent the
greater part of the summer.
Prof. Bryden Resumes His Duties,
Pi of. W. D. Iiryden, principal of the
Carbondale high school, w,as back at
his duties yesterday after an absence
of a week, duo to an attack of grip,
which seriously threatened to develop
Into pneumonia. While perhaps a rest
of a few weeks would be quite advis
able for Mr, Bryden, he waived this on
account of the urgent need-ot his presence-
to dispose of the rush of work,
examinations, commencement, etc, In
cident to the close of school.
Pacer Exchanges Hands.
Abo Sahm has purchased tho pacer
owned by J. H. Nicholson. Mr. Suhm
since disposing of his former trotter
several months ago has been casting
about for a horse that might strlko his
fancy, making several unsuccessful
trips to York state on this errand.
Flnully Mr, Nicholson's horso was ac
cepted and Mr, Sahm accordingly
values his possession,

Hiss Meehan's Promotion.
Miss Mary Meehan, of this city, has
been advanced by the Sperry & Hutch
inson company from manager of their
local trading stamp agency to the' posi
tion of collector In ,Bcranton. Miss
Median's new duties will keep her In
Scranton dally, though she will return
to this city each evening,
In Miss Median's promotion a well
merited compliment In paid her abil
ity, at the sntno time she can Justly
feel a pride In the advancement, since
she was flatteringly chosen from ft
number of agency representatives of
larger experience than she'. The an
nouncement of her promotion will be
pleaBlng to her numerous friends.
Miss Helen Median, .her sister, suc
ceeds her In the management of the
Carbondale agency.
ANENT THE STRIKE.
Foreigners Continue to Leave Busi
ness Not Noticeably Depressed,
Tho exodus of foreign ntlncrn from
Carbondale and', vicinity continues.
Scarcely a day passes without u dele
gation making Its way out of the city
over one of the railroads leaving the
city. The Ontario and Western -Is get
ting a big quota of the travelers. The
morning train, north, departing from
hero at llilO, usually has n well-filled
smoker. Yesterday the train carried
away a good-sized crowd, all heavily
laden with baggage.
It Is refreshing to hear that as yet
there has been no severe depression of
business, though the strike has been In
progress for sevcrul weeks. Some of
the leading merchants of tho town say
that tho business for tho month of May
compares favorably with that of lust
year.
Tho business at tho hotels has not
fallen, as was expected, with the excep
tion of yesterday, when the arrivals
were noticeably small.

THE TIME HAS BEEN EXTENDED
i
Why Doctor Churchman Byers Extends His Popular $10 Fee Through the
Month of JuneThis Is Positively Your Last Opportunity to Take Advant
age of This Rate Under No Circumstances Will the Offer Be Extended Be
yond June 30th Understand This Does Not riean $10 a Honth, But $10
for a Complete Cure, Medicine Included No Further Charge Will Be Hade.
Just as it was toward tho latter part of
tho frco period with which Doctor Bycre,
his mothod of treatment, and his pur
poses wero introduced to tho pcoplo of
Scranton ; JUBt as it was when tho fam
ous Quaker physician found hlmsolf ut
terly unablo to caro for all who came, so
during tho concluding days of May It was
found utterly Impossible for tho physician
to sco all tho patients who camo to his
ofllces to take advantago of tho $10 offor,
and many had to bo turned away. Thero
was no tlmo to make any chaugo In tho
newspaper announcements or Indeed
chango tho published statements nt all.
All that could be done was to care for as
many as possible and notify tho others
that tho offer would bo extended from the
first of tho month, Doctor Byois felt
that In giving tho $10 offer for tho lust
two weeks of May, ho was giving ubund
ant tlmo to oil who desired to jtest for
themselves tho power of his skill In cur
ing Chronic Diseases.
The events of the last fow days of tho
mouth showed him he wbs mistaken. He
thereforo sent out notices extending the
offer, not for a day or a week, but for
tho ontlro month of June. Ho made the
extension cover the entire month, so that
thcio mlht bo no repetition of tho scenes
of tho last fow days and tho hurrying
and confusion Incident to thorn.
Tho following ofTcr Is absolutely final
nnd will not under any circumstances be
extended beyond July 1st;
He will guarantee to treat all per
sons applying at his office before
July 1 for the nominal sum of $10
until cured. That is, 810 covers the
entire cost for a cure, and no fur
ther fee will be asked.
He furthermore agrees, that if the
person is not entirely cured in a
reasonable length of time to refund
the amount paid -without any quib
bling or evasion. It has always
been the principle of his life never
to keep a fee unless the patient was
cured.
Doctor Byers -wishes to make it
emphatic that this offer expires on
tho 30th day of this month, and in
order to got the benefit of it treat
ment must be commenced on or be
fore that date. This offer will not be
extended.
Diseases Due to Cell Disorganization
The different tissues of tho body aro
made up of minute cells, and whan these
cells become disarranged, disease Is tho
result. By supplying the proper nutri
