NEED OF UNITING.
"Retail merchants are realizing," said
he, "that It is better for them to unite
with their competitors In endeavoring
to further the best Interests of all than
to stand with daggers in their hands
waiting to knife each other at every
opportunity."
He commented upon the name "Elec
tric City" as applied to Scranton, and

FAKE COLLECTION BOXES.
Mrs. Duggan Says There Is No
Philadelphia Maternity Hospital.
8-Year-Old Boy in Jail.
There are In this city nt present a
number of collection boxes scattered
around the city marked "Philadelphia
Maternity hospital." At last night's
meeting of the Board of Associated
Charities, Mrs. Duggan reported that
there Is no such hospital, and that tho
whole scheme Is a fake pure and
slmrjlc.
Several men met In Philadelphia
about a year ago, she said, and organ
ized a fake charitable association. TJicy
had thousands of collection boxes
manufactured and placed them all over
the state. It Is claimed that nearly
$100,000 has been collected in this way.
The swindlers behind the scheme have
recently been arrested and will soon
come to trial.
Former Judge Knapp expressed the
belief that the business men In whose
places these boxes are located can con
fiscate them and turn the funds which
they contain over to the board.
.Mrs. Duggan also reported that she
had Just taken to the county Jail an S-year-old
boy named Elmer Beach, liv
ing on South Everett avenue, whose
parents aro unable to control him. He
spent tho summer at Lake Ariel, sleep
ing out of doors. He seems possessed
of an Insane desire to set things on fire,
she said, and unless confined is dan
gerous because of this fact. She will
make an effort to have him placed In
the Junior republic nt Freevllle. N. Y.
The report of Treasurer T. J. Kelly
showed that there is but $34.43 in the
treasury, with no salaries paid since
June 1.
Mrs. Duggan's detailed report of tho
work accomplished from July 15 to Sep
tember 16 was as follows: Applications
for relief, 190; Investigated, 107: found
worthy, S3; unworthy, 2'1; advice given,

W. P. LITTsllOMINATED.
Chosen as Candidate for legislature
by Democrats of Third District at
a Tame Convention.
The Third Legislative district Demo
cratic convention, conducted yesterday
afternoon nt the St. Charles hotel, was
a tame nnd colorless affair, In striking
contrast to the last convention held
some months ago, which wound up In a
glorious free fight.
AA'. P. Lltts, of Clark's Summit, was
nominated for .the legislature by accla
mation, nnd there wasn't even a con
tested seat. Everything moved with re
markable smoothless. AV. AV. Baylor
was elected permanent chairman, and
E. J. Jordan was choseu as secretary.
Mr. Lltts' name was proposed by Pat
rick Heeunn, nnd he was nominated by
acclamation. Mr. Lltts was a candi
date for the nomination six years ago,
hut was defeated In convention by Mar
tin Judge by the narrow murgln of ono
vole.
The committee on resolutions, which
consisted of J. H, Bonner, P. II, Sal
mon, J. B. Dnggert, M. J. Glynn and
M. Rleder, presented resolutions en
dorsing Robert E. Pattlson for gover
nor, condemning the acts of the last
legislature, nnd regretting the miners'
strike as an unfortunate conflict be
tween foices which should work to
gether, Instead of being at odds.

SEVEN COLLIERIES '
RESUMED YESTERDAY
Red-Letter Day for the Local Oper
atorsOutput Is Now Twenty
Thousand Tons a Day.
Yesterday was a red-letter day for
the operators. Seven new collieries
were started up by the local companies.
Tho Delaware and Hudson operated
for the llrst time since the strike the
Plymouth No. 2, at Plymouth; the
Conynghnm, at AVIIkes-Barre, and the
Olyphnlit, at Olyphant. The Ontario
and Arestcrn cut, prepared and shipped
coal from the Pine Brook nnd AVest
Ridge, In Scranton, and the Johnson

stock coal had been previously sent
through the AA'est Ridge, but yesterday
was the first time since the strike that
newly cut coal was sent out. Both
companies assert that resumption at
each place was made with good-sized
forces of former employes. x
This makes nineteen collieries and
twenty washerles now being operated
by the companies having their head

of the Edgerton washery Is now 600
tons a day, or double what It was a
week ago. The total output of the nine
teen collieries and twenty washerles Is
estimated to be 20,000 tons a day.
A crowd of strikers yesterday chased
a watchman employed at the Pancoast

ities on tho churge of discharging fire

Strange toS relate there wero no
changes In position, in spite of this
strong showing. Herbert Thompson, of
Carbondale, came nearest to passing
the one above him. He is now but one
point from Albert Freedman for fifth
place, i
A contestant writes for an answer to
the following question: "If at the end
of the contest I should fail to be above
thirteenth place, could I have 10 per
cent, of the money I sent In, or would
I have t take ' ono of the business
courses?" Answer The mles of the
contest plainly cover this. They say:
"Tho contestant with the highest num
ber of points will be given a choice
from th'e list of special rewards; the
contestant with the second highest
number of points will be given a choice
of the remaining rewards, nnd so on
through tho list. Each contestant fall
ing to secure a special reward will bo
given 10 per cent, of all money he or
she turns In." If a contestant finishes
In thirteenth place he will hnvo tho
thirteenth choice of the scholarships
offered, but there is no guarantee that
any of the business courses will be left
by truU time, as some of those higher
up muy" choose from them. He will not
get 10 per cent, of the money he sent
In unless ho finishes below thirty-third
place.
