the sport the Indians will prove a
good subject, for their gridiron prowess

game at -.Princeton and has since kept
In Close totlch with the sport, With iill
Its changes and modifications, Is the

PRISONERS FROM HERE.
How Carbondale Convicts Are Faring
in the Eastern, Penitentiary.
A Carbondalian who returned home
a few days ago from a visit to Phila
delphia, had exceptional courtesies and
privileges extended to him on a visit
to the Eastern penitentiary, on Cherry
Hill. By virtue of a letter from Mayor
Ashfirldge, of Philadelphia, received
through another Carbondalian, C. P.
O'Connor, whose office In select coun
cil adjoins the mayor's, the usually
hard and fast rules respecting visits
with prisoners were relaxed. By rea
son of this, the Carbondalian alluded
to was given the liberty of seeing nnd
chatting with all the convicts from
Carbondale and vicinity.
The most unfortunate is Kinney, the
Simpson man who murderously shot
down his wife on the Delaware and
Hudson tracks north of here, three
years ago last July. Kinney is In a
bad way, physically. He is worn out
from remorse over his deed, the keepers
say, and is broken In health from the
mental torture he is suffering. He has
no specific ailment, buf Is broken down
under the terrible strain. He Is thin
and pale from his confinement, and
there is not much hope that he will
serve much of his long sentence of
twenty years. "
James Nolan, from tho South Side,
who slew his father, while he was be
ing upbraided for drinking, is the op
posite In looks and manner to Kinney.
He has taken on considerable flesh and
nppeared to be In the best of spirits,
OS he inquired about the folks at home.
Wlnans Hull, Edwin Schoonover's
slnyer, was seen In his cell, assorting
rags to be used in weaving kitchen
carpet. Wlnans was In an apparently
contented frame of mind and expressed
himself as being fully resigned to his
lot. '"Sometimes I feel lonely," said
he, "but It's not often. It's much bet
ter here than I ever expected, and I've
got only fourteen yeara to serve."

STROKE OP PARALYSIS.
John Farrell, Aged Resident of Pike
Street, Stricken and in a-Precarious
Condition. v
Jbhn Farrell, of Pike street, unnged
resident well known In the section In
which he lived, Is In a precarious con
dition, following an attack of paralysis,
which prostrated him on Thursday
evening.

stricken. He has since been uncon
scious, with Ills fate hanging In the
balance. Dr. A. F. Glllls was sum
moned. The usual remedies were em
ployed, but with as meagre results as
usually follow In cases of such severity
as this. Yesterday Dr. AVheeler was
called in consultation. The result of the
attack can only be awaited with hope.
Mr. Farrell was severely Injured on
the lower limb a few months ago. He
was swinging an adze, chopping wood,
when the broad, sharp" blade glanced
and striking his limb with force,
caused nn ugly wound, which had just
about healed when the paralytic stroke
came. The friends of Mr. Farrell will
be pained to hear of his low condition.

left me I was so weak that It was a
month before I could sit up In a chair.
The ravages of the fever left me a
physical wreck. My blood wiib Im
poverished nnd I looked like n corpse.
I had not the slightest Inclination for
food, In fact tho thought of eating
filled me with disgust. I was listless
and tired. The tonics prescribed by
my physician did not strengthen me.
"1 had often heard or Dr. Williams'
Pink Pills for Pale People and con
cluded I would give them a trial. At
first the pills did not seem to do me
much good nnd I became discouraged
hut determined to persevere, thinking
ir they did not do me uny good they
would not do me any harm. But I was
happily surprised, as I had scarcely
finished taking the first box when I be

taken five boxes. My strength gradually
came back and my uppetlto returned

LAST DAY OP
COUNTY PAIR
TWO
GOOD RACES WITNESSED
AT WALLSVILLE.
The First Was Won by Thomas W.
Owned by M. M, Sherwood of This
City in Three Straight Second
Race Was a Frao-for-all and the
Prize Went to Miss Jennie, the
Property of W. Mercers of.Wilkes
Barre Prizes Awarded.
From a Staff Correspondent.
Wnllsvllle, Pa., Sept. 1!). Two good
races were witnessed by nn audience of
about 3,000 persons here today, tho
fourth and last day of the Maltland
fair.
The first race was won by ThomnH
W., owned by M. M. Sherwood, of
Scranton, In throe straight heats, with
Maxey, owned by F. I. Lott, of Mont
rose, second. Tho fastest mile was
2.23H.
The second race went to Miss Jennie,
the property of William Meiers, of
Wllkes-Barre, also In three strnlght
heats, with L. A. Patterson's Wilkes
Medium, of Carbondale, second. Fast
est mile, 2,191,4.
The management and falrgoers were
dlsuppolnted at tho non-arrival of tho
aeronaut, she having been delayed en
route. This was the only feature ad
vertised tliht did not take place.
The judges who had to select the best
specimens of the many articles entered
for premiums got through their tasks
this morning. It required considerable
more time this, year than-usual to get
through with this feature of the fair,
the entries being so much .greater In
number. There were so many exhibit
ors that space will not permit the
printing of the names or the prize win
ners. George E.'Stevenson, or Waverly, has
a large booth fitted up with bearskins,
deerskins, hides nnd pelts or many
kinds, stag and elk horns, Indian and
Mexican relics nnd other interesting
souvenirs of his visits to the far West
and Southwest. One of the articles
that attracts attention is n pair of
heads of black-tail deqr, with antlers
locked together. These were found In
the Sacramento mountains in New
Mexico. These two deers had been en
gaged In combat, their horns had be
come locked nnd they had died In that
nosltlon.
WARREN'S SWORD.
Another Interesting relic In the fair
is the sword carried by General War
ren In the Revolutionary war and nn
oil painting of the eighteenth century,
each of which is an heirloom handed
down In the AVnrren family of this sec
tion. A gang who were doing a good busi
ness In a canvas speakeasy about a
quarter of a mile from the fair grounds,
were espied by Constable Knight, of
Benton, but when he approached to ap
prehend them they loaded their goods
Into a wagon In quick time and went on
a gallop toward Dalton.
The officials in the judges' stand to
day were: Starter, James Kelly, of
Dunmore; judges, W. Shafer, of Peck
vllle: Charles Barlow, of Tunkhannock;
timers, Thurston Parker, of Clark's
Green, and Harry Miller, of Waverly;

Dress
Buttons
r It is not coiner to be n
t trimmings that have como are beautiful with a quiet, rich, subtle beauty that will linger long after
the noise and dazzle of the Coronation months have died away.
Fall dress-goods turned out to be uncommonly plain in color and weave perhaps for that reason
trimmings are more in demand than usual. At any rate, garnitures, brnlds and passementeries are a
necessary part of Fall gowns and wraps, to the minds of the great Paris makers, and the rest of the
world bids fair to follow in tho same idea-path.
A The right colors aro black and white, though the peacock combination of blue and green is a favor-
ite, and little touches of Oriental color have crept in, like tongues of flame, to light up many dark
X -'orners. 1
Paris has sent us more than her usual share this Fall year by year she slips further ahead in
the art of making lovely garnitures. But besides the robes and appliques and passementeries from
: France, there are hosts of braids and braid trimmings from Switzerland; jets from Germany, and a
brilliant array of fancy buttons and buckles from every country where they are best made.
PENDANTS Little drops hanging from an ornament are one of the newest things. They are
very good in black. -
2 Chenille fringes are in the air already on the gowns and 'wraps that Paris couturiers are fash-
loning.
Velvet crops out everywhere, not in heavy masses, but in little delicate touches that are very
effective. This year, for the first time, it has been introduced into appliques. ,
Medallions and separable gimps that can be cut apart between any two figures are among the
T most practical as well as the most beautiful trimmings that have come.
Spangles promise to be even more popular than last year, which is saying a good deal for them.
A They cover many of the most beautiful robes or unmade gowns in glittering profusion.
CORDELIERS Bits of fancy braid to be put on gowns in the style of frogs are among the
newest ideas, and some are very elaborate and very beautiful. ,
BlanketS and QuiltS The Annual Sale Still Lively.
Perhaps it's the coal scarcity. Maybe people think there will be few opportunities to get warm
: blankets nnd quilts at these September prices which is right. It is certain, anyway, that bed cloth
ing is going to new homes in enormous quantities.
Heavier underwear is necessary these days and we have ordered our full stock in earlier than
: usual men's, women's, children's. ' ,
Not the very heavy, but the medium weight It's unwise to jump from gauze to heavy wool.
