The Seniors and Sophomores of the
Scrnnton High school played a very
close anil exciting game of foot ball at
Athletic park yesterday afternoon, which
resulted in a victory for the Sopho
moies by tho score of r-0. The Sopho
mores won the toss and kicked off to
the Seniors. Ilea caught the leather,
but was downed before he could gain.
The Seniors then, by hard line plunges,
advanced the ball to the ti-yard line,
where they lost It on a fumble.
Hamilton kicked out of danger, and
Itea started for a touchdown, but Rey
nolds was too quick for him, nailing
Ken before he could move. They then
lined up, sending Lewart and Norton
tliruiiRli the line for good gains, but be
fore thay had a chance to score; the
half ended.
The Seniors kicked off to the Sopho
mores in tho second half. Stevens
caught the ball and made a good gain
before being tackled. Reynolds' signal
was given on the next play, and ward
ing off tackier after tackier ho ran
eighty yards for a touchdown. Hamil
ton failed to kick the goal.
The Seniors then took a decided brace
and by the great work of Tobey they
stopped the Sophomores' hard rushes.
Clay, the Sophomores' fast little end,
also did good work, toppling over the
Seniors' big: backs with ease. The
Sophomores finding they could do
nothing against the Seniors' line, Ham
ilton dropped back for a try nt the goal,
nnd getting the pigskin just where lie
wanted it he booted It toward the goal
posts.
It looked as if It was a sure goal, but
before It reached the crossbar the wind
carried It outside the posts. Hofore the
teams could line up, the -whistle blew
and tho game was over. Tho line-up:

It Is not known whether or not Pres
ident George V. liner, of the Reading,
will attend tho hearings. It is prob
able, though, that he will run In oc
casionally to look on. The other coal
road presidents, it Is quite certain, will
not attend, unless summoned.
Commissioner AVrlght said last night
that, as far as he knew, the commis
sion will at once enter upon the taking
of testimony from tho miners' side.
The pleas of all the parties are In tho
hands of the commissioners and some
brief discission us to tho method of
proceeding ought to be the only thing
to delay the immediate taking up of
the task of hearing evidence.
How long the commission will be In
session here, or whore, If any place,
It will sit next, no one knows. The
commissioners, It Is understood, are
icndy for a long session. The likeli
hood Is that the Scrnnton session will
not end for at least three weeks.

I At gtocort ever jwlitfo J 15c. nd S5c ptr pickg.
Of a New Catarrh Cute,
A largo and constantly Increasing
majority of tho American people are
catarrh sufferers. This Is not entirely
tho result of our changeable climate,
but because modern Investigation has
clearly proven that many diseases,
known by other nnmes, are really ca
tarrh. Formerly the name catarrh was
applied almost exclusively to the com
mon nasal catarrh, but tho throat,
stomach, liver, bladder, kidneys nnd
Intestines are subject to' catarrhal dis
eases as well as the nasal passages.
In fact, wherever there Is mucous
membrane there is n feeding ground for
catarrh.
Tho usual remedies, Inhntcrs, sprays,
douches or powders havo been practic
ally failures as far ns anything more
than temporary relief wns concerned,
because they simply dry up tho mucous
secretions, without having the remotest
effect upon the blood nnd liver, which
nro tho real sources of catnrrhal dis
eases. It has been known for some years
that the radical cure oC catarrh could
never come from local applications, but
from an Internal remedy, noting on the.
blood and expelling the catarrhal poison
from the system.
A now Internal preparation which has
been on tho nmrket only a short time,
has met with remarkable success as a
genuine radical cure for catarrh.
It may be found in any drug store,
sold under the name of Stuart's Catarrh
Tablets, large pleasant tasting lozenges,
composed principally of antiseptic In
gredients, Blood-root, Red Gum and
similar catarrh specifics.
Dr. Alnslee in speaking of the new
catarrh cure says: "I have tried tho
new catarrh remedy, Stuart's Catarrh
Tablets, upon thirty or forty patients
with remarkable satisfactory results.
They clear the head and throat more
effectually and lastingly than any
douche or Inhaler thut 0 have ever
seen and although they are what Is
called a patent medicine and sold by
druggists, I do not hesitate to recom
mend them as I know them to be free
from cocaine nnd opiates, and that
even a child muy use them with entire
safety."
Any sufferer from nasal catarrh,
throat or bronchial trouble, catarrh of
the stomach, liver or bladder will find
Stuart's Catarrh Tablets remarkably
effective, pleasant and convenient, and
your druggist win ten you uiey are
absolutely free from any Injurious drug.

REV. DR. M. S. HARD VERY ILL.
His Physicians Say That He Cannot
Recover.
"Word was received in this city yes
terday that Rev. Dr. Mauley S. Hand,
of Gerniantown, Philadelphia, was near
death's door," says yesterday's AVilkes
Barre Record.
"Rev. Dr. Hard some years ago was
presiding elder of AVyomlng district o
AVyoming conference of the Methodist
Episcopal church and resided at' Kings
ton. His talent in raising money for
various church enterprises was so
marked that It attracted attention and
he became associated with the Church
Extension society of the church and
later became assistant secretary of the
society. li this capacity he traveled
almost constantly, appearing In many
cities all over the country, raising
larg-e sums of money. For seveial
years his family remained nt Kingston
but at present is living in German
town, Philadelphia.
"Rev. Dr. Hard's Illness Is due to
overwork, it is said. He was seized
with nervous prostration and this in
turn affected his mind. Yesterday he
was able tu converse only a little, being
unconscious most of the time. A
specialist who was summoned held out
no hope. Rev. Dr. Hard's many friends
in this city and vicinity are much
grieved at this news.
Joseph Arun, an old Italian miner,
was deliberately shot late yesterday
afternoon at Throop by Mrs. Rosle
Gott, a young woman at whose house
he had been boarding for some time.
Ho was taken to tho Lackawanna hos
pital whore it was said hist night that
ho has only a lighting chance for re
covery. The motive for the crime Is not clear
ly defined but ns nearly as can be as
certained Mrs. Gott has been receiving
letters of late which she had reason to
believe came from Arun. In these let
ters It was suggested that she poison
her husband and In yesterday's mall a
package of arsenic was received. This
is believed to havo enraged her beyond
measure and she deliberately laid In
wait for hlm upon his return from
work.
Arun, who is E9 years old, was em
ployed at the Pnncoast mine nhd quit
work shortly before n o'clock. He
started for his boarding house soon
afterwards and as he opened the gates
Mrs. Gott rushed out of tho front door
with a revolver In her hand.
Arun started to back into the street
but before he got beyond the fence,
Mrs. Gott pointed the revolver full at
him and fired four times. One of the
bullets struck hlm in the neck and
passed out behind while another lodg
ed in his chest. Tho other two went
wild.
He threw up his hands and fell gasp
ing to the ground as Mrs. Oott calmly
surveyed him. She later went Into the
house where she remained until placed
under arrest sometime later.
Dr. J. F. Jucobs was summoned and
advised that tho injured man be taken
nt once to the Lackawanna hospital.
No effort was made to probe for the
bullet but an attempt will be made to
locate it today.
Mrs. Gott, who is a dark, sullen
looking woman about 21 years old, was
arrested and taken before 'Squire Pryor
who committed her to the county Jail
to await tho result of Aran's injuries.
Her husband accompanied her to the
jail and when asked why his wife shot
Arun he replied:
"Hlm a bada man. He put her up to
killa me and she shooln. him. She
have her what you call revenge."
