The deceased reached here last night
on the 10.10 Delaware and Hudnon
train, coming over the Eric and Wyo
ming Valley division of the Krlo to
Scran I on.
The funeral -will take place today.
Services will be' held at the Morgan
home, Salem avenue and Spring street,
commencing at 2 p. in., by Hew Charles
I-ee, pastor of the Kirst Presbyterian
church, of which Morgan had been a
member for several years. Services
will be public, but burial, which will be
' In Brooksldc cemetery, will be private.
The obsequies will be attended by the
members of the Carbondale High
school, class of 'OH: the Carbondale Ten
nis club, and Dr. W. V. Fletcher's
.Sunday school class of the First Pies
bytnrian Sundny school.
Tim filling of the canoe was not due
to a leak, but to a wave which caught
vhe rear of the craft as It shot down
fecial- Rift, which left behind them all
the dangerous places In the river.
Crane and nnlhrope. who were lightly
dressed, having-been In bathing further
up the river, struck for the Pennsyl
vania shore. Morgan, who was fully
and heavily dressed, went in an oppo
site direction, which was against tho
current, while the others swam with
the current. Crane shouted for Mor
gan to follow him, but the latter evi
dently did not hear the direction. In
the meantime, I.athrope, becoming
somewhat played out, having taken in
considerable water, shouted for help to
' Crane. In the few minutes that fol
lowed, Crane was tho principal of a
thrilling and heroic rescue. He took
Lathropo on his back and was swim
ming for the shore, when the canoe
paddle struck his foot, This he secured
and with it guided Lathrope along by
the chin, until Fortune sent the canoe
towards them. Crane, with most re-
Jrnarkable presence of mind and with a
7.itrength borne of their desperate cir
cumstances, placed Lathropo In tho
canoe, directing him to remain in it,
regardless of where it might drift.
Crane, forgetful wholly of himself,
turned to where he had seen Morgan
only an instant before, struggling
, against tho current, but he was miss
ing; he had gone down. Crane con
tinued to swim nbout and search for
Morgan, but to no avail. He sank with
out tho least outcry, and was probably
rendered helpless by an attack of
cramps. His heavy clothing was a fac
tor in his helplessness. Lathrope, In
tho meantime, floated down the stream
'or half a mile, when a farmer rescued
Mm and worked over him for half an
hour to restore him. Ho was in an cx
hiyisted state for several hours.
The farmers In the vicinity refused to
assist Crane or Lathropo with money,
though they knew both young men's
belongings were lost in the river.
Neither of the young men was sup
plied with clothing until their Carbon
dale friends arrived: and it was only
when a reward of $100 was offered by
J. L. Morgan, of Dinghamton, on uncle
of tho deceased, and the Carbondnllnns
readily offered the farmers remuner
ation, that they agreed to do any
searching,
Morgan intended to meet some friends
at Port Jervls, which accounts for his
being so fully dressed,
SCHOOLMATES' ACTION.
The class of '02 met in tho central
school building on Saturday afternoon
and took action on tho death of their
Deloved member, the late William Mor
.gan. Two committees, one composed of
Katie Purcell, Alice Morrison, Nellie
Crocker and Walter Loftus, were ap-
'. pointed to draw up suitable resolutions
in his memory; another, Minnie Fln
eren, Maud Stephens and Walter Qulnn,
to purchase appropriate (lowers, It was
also decided to attend the obsequies In
n body and have the class (lag placed
. at half-mast on tho school flagpole.

THE FIRST OROWL.
Hayseed Dllnds Chestnut Borough
Correspondent In Base Ball Story,
Tho Trncoyvllle dust and tho loose
hayseed which disfigured tho Carbon
dale delegation, while In the Chestnut
borough on Saturday, nlso got Into the
eyes of the Truth's correspondent,
causing him to sec the game this wise,
His befogged, his one-sided well, his
iloncsdalo opinion of the contest is ub
follows:
Saturday the far-fnmed," self-lauded
"Pels' 'of Iho Windy City came over tho
Moosles, reinforced by rooteis three hun
dred strong. They wein accompanied by
the whole newspaper fraternity, among
whom was "Tho Hero" and others of
equal solf-arknnwiodgcd fame. Tho Curb
Htoac society was also among tho "push."
In fact. Carbondale emtio prepared to
vanquish tho Maple City boys by fair or
foul means, hut In spite of all this tho
Tigers proved themselves thn undis
puted champions of Northeastern Penn
sylvania. Our boys played ,a gentlemanly
and scientific game from start to llnlsh,
while their opponents employed every
'lodge known lo the huso ball world to
win. Now, Carbondale, are you satlsllcd
to own up for once, at least, that you
were beaten. Uut no, you won't. You
never did. Yon will find some back door
to crawl through and plume your lorn
and tattered feathers. Pcrhap they will
turn back and put up a shout about tho
games at Lake I.odorc. when they de
feated a picked team, but they cannot
boast of a single Ignominious defeat In
the last seven years, as a glance at the
ofllelal scores will show . that out of
twenty games in tho last' seven yours,
Carbondale won but three. The 12.15
tri'ln, bearing the team and rooters, was
a half bonr lute, not arriving until 12.4.".
With six heavily loaded curs they came,
with a blaring of megaphones, horns, etc.,
and It was a laughable affair to sec "The
Hero" and his "Pets" attempting to get
their Instruments under their coats. The
"crunks" paraded the streets and then
repaired to the ball grounds, and It was
through no fault of theirs that the "Pets"
were soundly trounced. The game wos
leplote with brilliant plays, Ifoncdalo
winning on merits. Carliondale stood by
Us old reputation of kicking, and when
Ifcitiesdale made Its first run they crowd
ed on the ili'imoml und attempted to
break up the game. Managers, policemen
and ull alike were uiuiblo to quell tho
riot, lint at this time Mr. M. T. O'Mulley
proved himself a "Hero" In a good cause,
lfe went out among the strpllngs and
quelled the disturbance.
COUNCILS WANT
' THAT LIGHT CONTRACT
Voted Down Motion to Make a Three
or Five Year One for City Hall and
Hose Houses Contract Divided.
As forecasted In The Tribune a few
days ago, councils in joint session last
night adopted the light committee's re
port, recommending awarding the con
tract for lighting the city building lo
the Carbondale Gas company and the
lighting of the two hose houses to the
Lackawanna Valley Electric Light
company. The ordinances awarding
the contract will now go through coun
cils in regular order.
Mr. Humphrey wanted a contract for
three or Ave years for the purpose of
getttlns lower rales. He could not see
the necessity for readvertislng every
year.
Ills motion was opposed by Mr. Sahm,
who bused his argument on the be
lief that the city would get better ser
vice by not having a long contract. He
had sufficient supporters to vote down
the motion, the vote against the longer
contract being eight to seven, as fol
lows For Barrett, Ilumplney, Davis, Thomp
son, Puglliiuo, Nealon, Kennedy 7.
Against Munition, Solomon, Sahm,
Clark, Whitfield, Cook, Musters, Hobbs.
Common council at Its meeting
passed the Clark license ordinance; 11
nally ordered the sidewalk ordinance to
be printed, and passed the ordinance
for a hydrant at Fall Brook street on
two readings.
Tho meeting of select council, before
tho joint session, was exceedingly
brief. Resides tho presentation of the
city solictor's opinion with reference
to tire lighting contract, which was re
ported In detail yesterday, two reso
lutions, as follows, were adopted:
Mr. Humphrey Providing for cross
walks at Terrace and Wyoming streets.
Mr. Mnnnion Providing for cross
walks at Battle avenue and Pike street.
A FEARFUL EXPERIENCE.
Manager Clock, of the Postal Com
pany, Terribly Shocked by Live
Wire, While Climbing a Pole.
Manager Fred Clock, of the Postal
Telegraph company's local oflice, was
tearfully shocked yesterday by being
Informally introduced to a live wire.
Tho effect was a shock that vibrated
through every muscle and fibre of one
side of ills body, temporarily reducing
him to a terribly weakened condition.
Mr. Clock had ills fearful experience
in front of John Gilbert's store, Salem
avenue and Church street. His mission
was to adjust some of his company's
wires, To do this, it was necessary to
climb a tul! pole, which ho mounted by
means of spikes. Tho fifth of tho spikes
on one side or the pole is touched by
n passing wire of the eieetrlu light
company. Tho Insulation of tho wire
has worn off where It rests on tho step,
and when Clock unsuspectingly took
hold to assist In climbing to the top, ho
received iiiterrlble shock.
He felt that the grip of ten thousand
men hail hold of his nrin, Tho muscles
fairly danced, then twisted and danced
again, alternating with more twists
that camo and went with tho speed ot
the views of tho picture machines, Mr.
Clock was In agony and In his terrible
distress lie yelled aloud. Ills scream
was so piercing that it was heard in
stores down the block and drew tho
occupants to tho doors, wondering who
was in his death throes.. Not only Mils
arm, but all of, his body responded to
tho force of tho alternating current, It
has often been tho experience of line
men so shocked that they are held so
tightly to tho object which is charged
Hint they cannot leuvo go, Clock was
In this way for a minute, but the posl
tlon ho was in seemed to give hlni n
leverage, by which he released himself,
By the time ho descended the pole, he
was exceedingly weak, though he rul
ll9,rulto rapidly. He was going to re
mount the pole, but decided to aban
don the task for tho day, at least. He
was tiblo to continue at work, ufter a
rest, though his arm was stiff and re
quired constant exercising for some
time to arouse circulation,

BILL IS GOOD CLAIM.
City Solicitor Stuart's Opinion with
Eeferenco to Light Contract.
At lust night's meeting of select
council, the bill for street lighting for
May, which was held up In committee,
pending an' opinion of City Solicitor
Stuart, was ordered paid, by both
branches, after the following opinion
from the city solicitor had been read:
in reference to your inquiry ns to tho
validity of the claim of tho Lackawanna,
Valley Electric Light and Power Supply
company for light furnished during tho
month of May last ns shown by their bill
of Mny 31, 1!0:', would ,say that I seo
no reason why said bill Is not a valid
claim against the city under that con
tract now existing between said company
and the city, entered into In the early
part of tho year. I am informed that a
question was raised as to the validity
of tho contract by reason of tho con
tract providing for a term of threo years,
beginning April 1, 1901. The contract pro
viding for tho lighting of tho streets
went Into effect when tho ordinances
providing for said contract became a law.
The fact that tho contract was not for
mally put Into writing and signed at that
time does not make It tho less an ex
isting contract, and the company could
recover for tho service performed accord
ing to the terms or It.
An objection might be made to that
part of tho service rendered between
April 1, 1901. and tho time of the entering
Into of tho contract of 1902, as no contract
was in existence during tho period of that
service; but tho company could collect
tho reasonable value of said service; and
as the city and company have agreed by
tho rendering and paying of the bills
during that time the matter has been
disposed of and cannot affect the accom
panying bill for May last, While tho
contract aforesaid was not retroactive
from April 1, l!K)l, up to the time tho con
tract went Into effect, yet tho city re
ceived tho benefits of tho reduced rates;
and the said contract has been in force
since the said ordinance became a law.

YOU DON'T CARE when we take our semi-annual

be stricter with ourselves; and the stockmen must be very

wouldneed reducing alter July 16th the inventory time.
And as the measuring and counting is well under way
getting ready for the final entry we shall take all possi
