One of the Victims of the Mnyfleld
Fire Has Developed a High Tem

' Mrs. Thomas Miller, who was ter
ribly burned In the Mtiyflolil lire that
destroyed her home and her child, Is
not milking the progress towards re

ns satisfactory a condition as the day
she was taken to the hospital. Sutur
diiy she developed a high temperature,
'which was Increased somewhat yes
terday. This symptom docs not fear
fully alarm the surgeons, but It Is a
source of worry, and unless the fever
nlmto within a few days there would
be reason for grave, apprehension. In
the meantime heroic remedies are be
ing employed to counteract the effects
of the septic poison that Is the cause
of the disturbance.
The septic poison developed from In
fection that probably had Us origin
'In the clothing that came In contact
; with the raw portions of the burned
body before the physician, who was
called, could give proper attention to
Sirs. Miller. This septic condition of
the blistered bayk and chest Is being
carried throughout the system by the
process of absorption. The hospital
, authorities are fighting with hope to
check this process. What the result
will be cannot be even hazarded until
a couple of days have passed.
The rest of the family who are at
the hospital, the father, a sl.-year-old
daughter and the Infant boy, are mak
ing good progress towards recovery,

for many weeks. The girl's burns are
healing satisfactorily, and the baby,
whose head was injured by a fall from
the window is about well.

The wife of a grocoryuuui In Car

of the committee voted down each at

send the claim to select council to be

POOR OLD HONBSDALB.
Eleven of Her Husky Youths
Trounced by Carbondnle Young
sters Score, 11 to 0 The Swift-winds-Pittston
Game.
Notice has been received by the
sporting editor of The Tribune of a
lodge of sorrow that is to be held In
Hoiiesdale tills week. Kleveu of the
most active and real skittish youths of
aiillerville came over the aioosics Sat
urday forenoon to make our High
School boys forget they ever knew how
to play loot' ball. At nightfall a half
dozen of these eleven skittish youths,
who were bold enough to say "Fudge"
and to rid on a trolley car, and ip
pearcd Just as dare-devilish as if on a
canal boat, took to Canaan street hill
and caught the train at White's cross
ing. Their shame was too great to
come up aialn street and board tho
train under the glare of the 'lectrie
light. It was n veritable slaughter of
the Innocents 11-0 whew! That's why
there's a lodge of sorrow on the pro
gramme. Our sporting editor fears lie
cannot go, but has decided to send a
representative In "Chuck" Connors.
"Chuck" has a world of sympathy for
the Hoiiesdale Force-eaters1. " 'Twos a
blamed shame; dat's wat it wuz," said
"Chuck." "Dey have me heart's syin
perty, dat's wat dey have. It wuz n
awful slotterin', wuzsm't if.' Gee! I
feeel turrlble bad for dose blokes."
Tt will be seen, therefore, that
"Chuck" will be just the one to deliver
the oration at the lodge of sorrow. He
teels for the poor cunalers, and his rag
time speech will help to mako the sor
rowing and the alllioted forget the woes
of their disastrous visit to Carbondale,
There Isn't much lo tell about the
game, It was done so quickly and so
effectively that it seems like a joke
that the Houesdalers should have ever
had the conceit to come to Carbondnle.
Canal boats could have moved more
quickly than the lanky kiddie bucks
who called themselves "High school
bovs."
The Hoiiesdale youths were a good
deal heavier than our Carbondale boys,
ami should have won and would have
won had they known anything about
the game. The best work was by
Qulnn, Boland and W.vnu for Carbon
dnle, and Campbell and "Weaver for
Hoiiesdale.
The line-up was us follows:
Carbondnle Kllpatrlek, right end:
Forbes, left end: Scott, left tackle;
Frick, right tackle; Lyons, right guard;
Olllls, left giuud; Setttt, centre; Wynii,
quarterback: Behind, right halfback;
Qulnn, left halfback; Connerton, f nil
back, The Swlftwlnds defeated the strong
Sullivnns, from Plttston, at Alumni
park, by tint score of li-o. Tho work of
Captain Dick Jlonnghan's Swlftwlnds
was highly creditable to his training.

ipman,
of Richmond, Va., a great sufferer with
woman's troubles, tells of her cure by
Lydia E, Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.
"I)K.ut Mas. PixKiiAJi: For some years I suffered with backache,
severe bearing-down pains, leueorrluKa, and falling of the womb. I
tried many remedies, but nothing gave any positive relief.
" T commenced taking Lydlu 15. Plnklinin's Vegetable Compound
in June, 11)01. When J had taken the first half bottle, I felt a vast im
provement, and have now taken ten bottles with the result that I feel
like a new woman. When I commenced taking the Vegetable Com
pound T felt all worn out and was fust approaching complete nervous
collapse. 1 weighed only !8 pounds. Now I weigh 300i pounds and
am improving every day. 1 gladly testify to the benefits received."
Hits. K. C TiTiotAX, 4-2:i West 30th St., Richmond, Va.
"When n medicine lias hoen successful in more than a million
fuses, is It justice to yourself to Bay, without trying1 it, "I do not
believe it would help nio"?
Surely you cannot wish to remain weak r.nd sick and discour
aged, exhausted with each day's work. You have some derange
ment of the feminine organism, and Lydia E. Pinkham's Vege
table Compound will help you just as surely as it has others.
Mrs. W. H. Pelham, Jr., 108 K. Baker St., Richmond, A a., says:
" Dkak Mrs. Pixkuam : I must say that I do not believe there is any
female medicine to compare with Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
