THE POST OFFICE SCRAMBLE Quinn and Monaghan Havo En tered tho Arena With Thoir Petitions Both Deter mined to Fight. HE local post oDlco cam1 paign is now open. It was opened yesterday by tho circulation of petitions by two of tho candidates Charles J, Quinn and 'Squire J, Monaghan. Both par' ties are confident and tho recognition between them is mutual, but they do not seem to countenance any othor candidacy. Quinn does not give any indica- tion of wlicro his strength comes from, but 'isquiro Monnghan says his petition will go in backed up by Senator Monaghan of this dis trict. It is claimed that the Democratic Stato Senator will havo something to say in the making of such appointments. The fight promises to be fully as lively as tho one that resulted in Postmaster IJoycr's appointment ana there is a belief that if something docs not occur to bring oil upon the boiling waters in tho meantime tho sore spot that will bo left after the making of the appointment will not heal for a while. Quinn and Monaghan certainly mate, formidable opponents. Both aro well known throughout tho oounty in both business nnd political circles. Ono thing is certain there will bo no Kindtism in the fight. "Pbcre seems to bo a general un- aerstaudlngthat so far as tho post ofllco is concerned no Germans need apply this time, or hope to slide in, and that the party who will get the ofllco must show a residence hero of tome leegth. When 'Snuiro Monaghan was 'first spoken in connection with tho post oilico sorao peo ple took Jittlo stock in the report. The squire had previously announced that lie was an aspirant for Prothonotary and thoso who doubted his candidacy believed that such nn oClco would bo moro suitable for him and that thereforo he would not nttompt to Becure th6 post ollicc. But I am ablo to stato positively that Monaghan has given np the Prothenotnry idea on the reasoning that tho Irish aro already well supplied with county olhces and that tho next candidate for Pro thonotary on the Democratic ticket must bo of some ethor nationality. Whatever has taken possession of Colonol James Knox Polk Scheilly no one seems to know. Col. Scheilly, whero aro you at ? He seems to be standing idly by allowing others to push him to and fro wherever his presenco will be most advantageous to them. It is not long sinco the gentleman stated publicly, "In looking at me you look at your next postmaster in case "Cleveland is elected." Sinco tho election ho has been surprisingly sileut. Some say the silence is like a calm beforo atorrn and that when tho proper timo arrives tho Colonel will suddenly burst forth with all his glory and political in fluence. Yet others say that the Colonel will continue to bo a patron and not tho pro prietor of the post ofllce; that tho county chairmanship is held temptingly before him and ho can havo it by merely nodding his head. But this is hardly correct. The post- niasiersinp oi aiienanuoali is a far more larger and sweeter plum than the chairman ship, especially when tho seat is as warm as it was this year for Mr. Marr. However, many moons must elapso before Q. C. takes his seat and many moons will elapse before tho post ofllco appointments will receive attention. Shenandoah will not bo the first place considered and by tho time tho work gets down to that point wo may hear of numerous surprises. Tho next fight will bo between Franey O'Hara and O'Neill to see who will get tho contract for taking charge of the dead letters Contractor Danaker yesterday had a gang of men engaged in tearing up nnd relaying the paving between tho electrio railway tracks on North Main street. This was rartly caused by the sinking of one side of the track. ' Superintendent Glllan says the electric railway is managing to pull through tho drought very well. Tho power houso receives a supply for but an hour a day, but enough water is stored In that time to keep the cars going until 10:30 p. m, and somo times later. The. paintors of town will doubtlessly bo Interested hi the announcement that the, sixth annual convention of tho master house painters and decorators association of Penn sylvania will bo hold on January 10th, 11th and 11th, next. Tho programmo will include reports on testing different paint materials, papers on docoratlon and addresses by prominent men. The association has somo mcmbors In this city. A Herald reader told mo yesterday that Pottsvillo boasts of a ''lazy man's club." It is composed of somo of tho leading and most solid men of tho town and tho rules that govern them aro of a most novel character. One of them Is that when a number of them aro sitting together they must be as near as possible a perfect embodiment of laziness and should a fly light upon the bald bead or Mo. BBS noso of any ono of them ho daro not brush it off under penalty of treats for the crowd, rno president of tho club, wno is weauny and has a largo bank account, is said to bo In almost abject want because ho is almost too lazy to draw his breath. JUNIOR TEMPLARS. They Hold Their Seml-Auiiual Convention In Town. Tho semi-annual convention of the Jr. T. of U. & T. was held on Monday afternoon nnd evening in Mcllct's hall. Thero wero about 35 reirrcscntatlves present. All tho re ports were encouraging and showed that a great deal of gaod work had been accom plished sinco the last session. Tho organiza tion is growing stronger every day.

EXCEPTIONS FILED. To the Iteport on the Division of tbe Wards. Exceptions were yesterday filed to tho report of Messrs. Frick and Mudey, two of tho three commissioners appointed to report on the advisability of dividing the wards of town. The third commissioner, A. B. Cochran, did not concur in the report. Nine reasonsiwhy the report should not bo con firmed aro given first, that the general pub lio and special notice to be given as directed was not followed; second, that tho Commicsioncrs mado a former report and that the last ono was InStlircct opposition to tho former one. That tho present proposed division of the borougli was ono submitted by tho ward politician. That tho present ro port was signed and ready to be filed at tho September tcim, but was not until October 7, 1892, and that the Commissioners disregarded tho sworn statement of tho number of voters in all of the different blocks of the borough, That the now wards aro not of equal popula tion. That the report does not show the present oxlstlng lines of tho borough or what lines havo been altered or changed, nor does the repoij conform to tho order of court, and further, that tho report docs not contain a full and explicit opinion as to the .propriety of dividing the borough into wards. The ninth objection says tuo report does not givo or submit any dates, finding of facts or other information. Tho Place tu (Jo.

THREATS TO BREAK LIGSNSES Landlords Warned That They Must Change Their Tenants or tho "Citizens League" Will File Remonstrances EEAT excitement oxlsts among tho Polish Lith uanian and Hungarian people of town over tho circulation amongprop- erty owners having saloons on their nrem- isos of letters threaten ing to cut off licenses. While tho lottcrsdo not specifically mention nationalities It is clear that tho threatened movement is aimed at the Polish, Lithuanian and Hungarian people and they realize it. The letters havo only been sent to such property owners as havo Polish, Lithuanian and Hungarian saloonkeepers as tenants. A Herald reporter saw ono of tlie letters to-day. , It states that there is no desiro to take advantage of the party receiving tho letter and that duo notice is given that thero must bo a change of tenant, or at the next licenso court a remonstrance will bo filed against tho tenant "on tho ground that ho is a purchasable citizen." The letters are signed "Citizens League" and thero is not! ing to indicate their source. Iboy have created quite a stir and tho tenants to whom they aro directrd aro pie paring to organizo and engage lawyers to fight any attempt to put tho threat into ex ecution. Many of the proporty owners who havo received the letters are also somewhat agitated, particularly those who were unable to get tenants for their places until after they got a licenso. FELL FROM A BREAKER. A Carpenter Sustains Severe Injuries nt Win. Punn. Josiah Hoffman, of South Chestnut street, who is employed as a carpenter at the Wm Penn colliery, -was severely injured yesterday afternoou by falling from the breaker to the ground, a distance of 35 feet. He and lellow-workman were engaged in hoisting planks. Hofl'man reached over to grasp and Beperato them, but missed bis hold and was precipitated to tho ground. That ho was not killed was probably duo to bis arm striking a block, which broke tho fall somowhat. Tho arm is terribly bruised and swollen. Hoffman's cntiro right side is paralyzed. Ho nlso re ceived injuries about tho head and face. Dr. Hamilton, who Is attending Hoffman, was unablo to say to-day whether or not there wero internal injuries. ARCHBISHOP RYAN COMING.
