The tows TR Hall gusstian ase Postmaster of Sayre Tomor- At twelve o'clock topgight James N. Weaver, who has been post- master of Sayre since February 11, 1903, will retire from the office and George D. Bonfoey, who recently received his commission from Presi- dent Roosevelt will take charge Mr. “Weaver was appointed for a term of four years, but for the past two years he has been in declining health, and a year ago the post- post office department demand- ed his retirement and io- structed Congressman Lilley to name Mr. Weaver's successor, That announcement upon becom- ing public precipitated one of the bitterest political struggles that ever occurred in this section. E. J. Connelly and J. Henry Price were the candidates for the office and the incidents connected with the contest are too well known to need repetition. After nearly al year Congressman Lilley quictly sent the name of George D. Bon: foey to the department, and a few days later his nomination was sent by the president to the senate and that body lost no time in confirm: ing it. Mr. Bonfoey's induction into the office of postmaster ends the strife. The citizens of Sayre are satisfied with the appointment, and he will receive the unqualified support of all good citizens. Mr. Weaver retires with a clean record. During his incumbency the postoffice has been conducted in a capable and efficient manner. Its receipts have steadily increased and the salary has grown with the increase. When Mr. Weaver went into .the office the position paid $1,800 per year, bnt with the growth of business he soon suc ceeded in getting the yearly stipend increased to $2,600. Mr. Weaver is still confined to his home on Elmer avenue by illness. SOLD LIQUOR STORE Abram Breakstone of Wilkes- barre, through his attorneys Laws & Winlack, has just closed a con- tract with Mr. L. E. Ruher for the purchase of his liquor store at 379 Broad street, Waverly. Mr. Break- stone will take possession April 1. He has for years been engaged in the liquor business in the Wyom- ing valley and promises a first class establishment at Waverly when he gets started. The stand is an old one, Mr. Ruher having [having been there for 16 years. Mr. Breakstone is one of the best and most respected citizens of Wilkesbarre, and Waverly will re- ceive a first class, energetic busi- ness man, and an excellent citizen by his locating at that place.

Ott, surgeon in chief of the R. A, Packer hos- pital, ordered an x-ray machine for that institution and it is expected that the same will be installed in the carly part of May. The ma- chine is made by James G. Biddle of Chestnut street, Philadelphia. He has equipped nearly all the large institutions in the country with these machines, which are res garded as the most complete from both a scientific and utility stand- point of any on the market. The machine, which costs nearly $300, is equipped with a 20-inch Roent- gen induction coil and the electric lighting current will be used to operate it. A devise known as an electrolylic interrupter to overcome the alternating phase will be used and the voltage is 110. The coil is mounted on a ma- hogany cabinet while the switch- board is of marble with a controll- rheostat. The entire equipment is modern in every respect and is accepted by the medical and sur gical profession as the best pro- curable.

Warmer, pastor of the church, will officiate. The brotherhood of Railway Trainmen will have charge of the services, and the interment will be made in Tioga Point cemetery. PREPARING FOR TROUT Local fisherman are already look- ing forward with much interest to the coming trout season which opens on April 15, though the fishing for the speckled beauties will not be legal until Apnl 16, Those who pretend to kmow claim that the season will bea good one, as the weather has been favorable. The water, however, may be high and cold. HOSPITAL NOTES Mrs. George Hart of Candor, N. Y, was admitted to the hospital today. The condition of Jeremiah Hen- inger, the Lehigh Valley employe who was found in an unconscious condition in his room at the Wil« bur house, and who was later tak- en to the hospital, is critical and his death is momentarily expected. SUFFERING FROM PARALYSIS Henry M. Peppard of No. 404 Maple street, who has been in ill health for several weeks, is now suffering from paralysis. Both legs Miners and Operators Is to Be Held on Tuesday Next The gloom caused yesterday by the strike situation has given way It is declared that the situation in For Spring House Cleaning A ficlds is not entirely hopeless. The announced acceptance of the oper- from the miners’ organization in PICTURE FRAMING 205 Desmond St, Valley Phone 191 a, the suspension of all work on either a compromise will be effected at once or the points in dispute can be settled in a comparatively short time. The vote upon the Perry resolu- tion in the miners’ convention yess terday at Indianapolis, permitting the miners to sign the 1903 wage scale wherever it is offcred, is in accordance with reason and the best ‘interests of all concerned. It is certain that Robbins and other operators of influence will offer the 1903 scale for a two years’ agrees ment. : The miners in the anthracite field by suspending work alter today at least force the matter toa final settlement sooner than if they were to continue work, although it is possible a better feeling might have resulted had they secured an agreement from the operators to submit the entire matter to a board of Arbitration and continued work for a stipulated period pending the otitcome of the negotiations. THE SULTANS DAUGHTER A radical departure will be made from repertoire usages by the Him. melein’s Ideals at the Loomis next Monday night, when “The Sultan's Daughter,” a screamingly funny comedy will be the offering. From time to which the memory of man runneth not it has been the custom of popular priced companies to present nothing but melodramas This play will be found to be an agrecable deviation from the estab lished custom. Itis intended for laughing purposes only and will furnish more good, clean, genuine fun and wholesome amusement than any three farce comedies of modern times. Miss Earle will be seen in the comedy role of Suluna, the statue that comes to lite. La- dies’ tickets will be issued for the opening night, limited to 200. tA e— WILL RECEIVE BIG PAY When the employes, of the Le- high Valley receive their March earnings on April 13, they will get the largest pay ever given them, the reason being that on account of the strike agitation they have been working extra time. Upto and including yesterday many of the crews had worked forty shifts for the month with the prospects of adding another extra one today. In the Sayre shops the men have been working overtime, In the new shops the appropriation has not all been exhausted. GAMBLING DECISION A decision, which may or may not be of local interest, has recent ly been handed down by the United States supreme court. A person who runs4 gambling joint or per- mits gambling on his premises is liable for every cent lost by any person who plays any gambling game. If a man looses money in one of these places all he has to do is to bring suit and the proprietor will be forced to make good the loss. There will be a special meeting of Sayre Council No. 1175, Royal Aacanum this evening at 8 o'clock. All members are requested to be present.
