The Other Patient, His Brother, Is Getting Well Councils Will Take Effective Action This Week No New Cases. The development since Saturday In the small-pox situation In this city ntfeets Thomas Thompson, the second of the two patients In the stricken fatuity. The disease has a llrm hold mi him and his condition now Is so dangerous that the opinion Is ho will have a hard time to tally through the siege. He Is the younger of the two, about 13 years of ace. ' The Indications In the ease of the first patient ure exceedingly favorahle. lie has reached the stage where the erup tions are healing and beginning to scale. Ills recovery seems assured. In the ease of the other brother, though the sumo faithful treatment has linen followed, the ultuck Is more viru lent and the progress more rapid. There Is scarcely a portion of his body that. Is not disfigured by an eruption. The physician in charge is doing every thing within his power and means lo to carry the sufferer through. None of the other two members of the family has shown the least symptom of the disease, and are in good spirits under the circumstances. Councils will meet some night tills week to adopt means of dealing with the situation. There Is no alarm over the two eases that exist, but the experience of nearby towns demand that every precaution be taken. A joint meeting of councils will be called by .Mayor O'Neill, who will probably make certain recommendations. Among the things to be considered will be fixing the remuneration of the physician who will be authorized to eare for such oases: No action In this respect lias been taken as yet. The pliysielun who Is looking after the Thompsons is doing so only from a sense of duty. AVlth respect to his charge of them, It can be said assuredly that he Is tak ing absolutely n'o chances. Kvery pre caution and safeguard have been em ployed since lie was called Into the case. An Idea of how he protects him self and those who come in contact with him can be gained when It Is mentioned that ho devotes about four hours each day to disinfecting himself, using the most effective of modern an tiseptics. He is scrupulously careful, and, as suggested before, lakes no chances whatever. A MAN'S HEAVY LOSS. $300 Taken from Him, but Recov ered by Constable Neary. A well-known citizen is blessing For- tune, and. Incidentally, Constable Ed wurd Neary, that he Is not today the loser or J.S00. Yesterday forenoon, while the Erie excursion train was standing at the Seventh avenue station, he had occa sion to use the lavatory of the depot. "While he w.is washing, he left Ills wallet nearby and walked away with out it. He returned in only a few minutes, on discovering' his loss, but the wallet and contents $"00 were gone! he could get no trace of It. Con stable Neary was sought. In a few minutes, ho had a clue, which he fol lowed until In; located the man on the excursion train. The wallet was in his inside coat pocket and bulging out clearly showed its outlines. When ap proached by the keen constable, the man's face took on a crest fallen look. He handed ovr this wallet without u word, and before he could make any explanations the train pulled out for Binghamton with the man a. passen ger. It is not known whether or not tho purposes of tho man who took the money were honest or otherwise, ns he had no time to explain. An investiga tion is likely lo follow. The loser was overjoyed at the re covery of the money and has slnco been singing the praises of Constable t Neary. POSTMASTER THOMAS. Whnt tin Admiring, Conservative Scranton Writer Says of Our Es teemed Townsman. The following merited tribute to Postmaster J. II. Thomas, our esteemed townsman, was penned by P. A.

All of tho nearby uolifts of Interest and woodland beatrty were sought. A long procession of carriages passed from tho city In tho early morning over the several roads leading from Curbouditto, and before the day was half over, not u carriage or n eonvey nnce of any sort could he engaged at tiny of tho liveries. It wns the first real weekly exodus or rest-seekern and was a precursor of what will be the rule every Sunday until the cool of autumn makes driving unpleasant. It won a rare day for driving, ns the roads were In the most favorable con dition, following the rain of the past few days. The landscape, too, partook of the benefits of the rainfall, and wore Its brightest green, tile green that Is so restful to the eye. Crystul lake, Clifford and Wuymart were the favorite places for driving parties, while a number went to 1'oyu telle and Rliighumlon; others taking advantage of the pleasant trolley ride over the wood-lined mountain to For est City. THE BLUE AND THE GRAY. Mail Carriers Are After tho Police men for a Game of Ball. There will bo a union, reunion or dis union of the blue and the gray on the afternoon of July 4, or some morning between 4 and 6, If the Carbondale po licemen dare accept the challenge that is hereby hissed at them by the mull carrleis of the Carbondale postofllcc. The carriers have a team, be It known, and a few to spare. The car rleis know the iiatUnial game, he this also known, for at cutting across lots in hustling over their routes they en counter enough of sanies of "one, two and throe-old cat" to teach the line points of the national sport to the po licemen. As suggested earlier, the game needs to be played either July -I, nfl&rnoon, or some summer morning between i and ti o'clock. After 4 o'clock the Im porlant hours of sleep are ahead of the Carbondale policemen, and the carriers are too considerate to ask the men In blue to overwork. On the contrary, the carriers are willing to make the sacri fice of rising ten or fifteen minutes earlier in order to accommodate the "coppers" and then rub in a defeat. A guess at the make-up of both teams Is something like this: Carriers William Chase, catcher, to play and scoop the high ones; P. F. Foxe, pitcher, who is onto the curves of the sphere as he is on the curves of the country's railroads; I. F. Carroll, the short man In short field; David Walsh, another long fellow, first base, to pull down the short man's sky rockets; Cioorgp Davis, second base, who has spent tile past week sizing up' Brother Chase's throwing arm: Martin 1.. Oli ver, third base, who will be good com pany for tlie short man; William Fox, right Held, captain of the .Held force; John Nealoa, centre field, where. he will have no questions to answer, and Frank .Smith, substitute carrier, left Held, the best place for the fat men, as no blue-coat will over knock n fly that far. Policeman Chief McAndrew, catcher; another long fellow In the right place, who is supposed to catch base balls as readily us he catches thieves; Patrol man Carden, pitcher, tlie Fallbrook man, where all the good throwers come from; Patrolman Huikly, the Belmont short man; Patrolman McAndrew, first base, another long fellow; Patrolman Hell, second base, with "Policeman Jack" to catch tlie chiefs lightning throws: Park Policeman William Kil leen, third base, where he can divide his time chasing sparrows; Special Po. Ilcenmn Clark Helssel In right Held as aide-de-camp to First Baseman McAn drew; .Special Archie Uuriiey, In cen tre Held, where there will be nothin' tloin'; and Special Patrick Malla In left Held, close to home. Mall-wago-i Drivers P. A. Walker and Fred Sheridan will transport the bats, shin pads, breast protectors, etc., to the field of battle; and Constable Kdward Neary will be the chief coaclier, taking his stand near Chief McAndrew. Constable Morau will have u roll ot long green to take all odds on the men in blue and Constable Emmett will put himself in communication by wireless telegraphy with Steve Clllby for point ers on liow they play the game in Cherry Ridge. This will be "the" game of the sea son. ENTERTAINED MR. O'BOYLE. Guest of School Director Hughes and Carbondale Press Club. Attorney I', A.

' CRESCENTS DEFEATED. Tho Half Moons Fell Before Scran ton's Team, The pets were defeated yesterday af ternoon on Duffy's Held by the central city tcain of Hcrnnton In so decisive a manner that removed any doubt that might exist In the minds of the crank tclntlve to the merits of both teams. It was on overwhelming defeat, and the bcBt team won. The Crescents for sev en Innings played u great game, but nt that point of the contest they weak ened and the .Scranton boys bore them to the earth. McAndrew had, until the fatal seventh Inning, the Scranton team completely at his mercy, but when they began to get on to his curves they cer tainly made the most of their time and energy, and before they had censed In their efforts, seventeen runs were marked to their account. Fox was an enigma lo the pets and all they could realize from his shoots wns four runs. The score was ns follows: SCRANTON SUNSETS. n. it. o. A. H.
