COUNCIL S TIE BROKEN. SECRETARY CONTEST SETTLED BY MR. SHOVLIN WITHDRAWING. Another Deadlock Sprung Tp on the l'uhlitihiiiK of the Annual Statement, Ilut Thift Was Broken by tl e TOSH of a Coin—Other HtinineHM Transacted. Standing room was at a premium on Monday evening at the council room, the occasion being the regular monthly meeting of the borough fathers, all of whom wore present when Chairman Meeiian called the gathering to order. The usual quota of bills was read, as follows: D. A. Furoy, lanterns, SB; rent of fire plugs, $87.50; Hugh Boyle, janitor and feeding prisoners, $37.50; It. P. Keilv, surveying, $44.50; filing borough officers' bonds, $3: street light, $241.00; .1. I). Myers, Condy Furcy and Chas. O'Dontiell, sl2 each for auditing; William Williamson, supplies, $12.94; John Mollick, burying cats, dogs and fowl, sl2. All were ordered paid ex cept Mr. Williamson's and Mr. Furoy's, which were laid over. Street Commissioner Boyle presented his report for March, amounting to $52.- 38. This, witli a similar bill from ex- Street Commissioner Moore, for $13.75, i was ordered paid. Burgess Gallagher's first report, for the month of March, was as follows: Receipts, $60.25; commissions, $29.25; due the borough, $37. The police ser vice for the month amounted to $41.50. The bill for street lighting was the subject of some discussion, which 11- sulted in the appointment of a com mittee to ascertain if a reduction could not be obtained on the cost of the lamps, j A communication from the Lehigh ! Traction Company asked on what terms ! the stone crusher could be rented from the borough for a few weeks. The street committee was authorized to have the machine repaired and set the price for its use by outside parties. The linancial statement of the bor ough was then read. It was quite a ' lengthy document, but it proved of great interest to the councilmen and the j spectators. The proposition to follow i the annual custom of publishing it was I decided upon, but in what papers it should appear was not so easily agreed to. | A motion that each councilman vote j for two of the three local English papers was carried, and the vote was as follows: j For Tbirukk and Progress, Messrs. Davis, ! Mulhearn and Median. For Trihixk I and Prcu, Messrs. Miller, Butter and Zemany. The Tkibunk was declared one of the papers after t he first ballot. Half a dozen more ballots were taken on the Progress and" Press, with 110 change, and the matter began to assume the appearance of a tie-up as complete as that on secretary. Finally, to settle the matter, Messrs. Butter and Mul hearn agreed to toss a coin, the loser to change his vote on the following ballot. Mr. Butter won, and when the roll was called again the vote was 4 to 2 in favor of the Press. The president then announced that! balloting for permanent secretary would ! lie resumed. The members were about to prepare to vote when Hugh Shovlin, one of the contestants, asked permission to address them, which was granted, lie stated that he understood that the councilmen proposed to elect a secre tary at this meeting, and that it would not be either himself or his opponent, but a dark horse who was about to enter the race. Not approving of dark horses, he requested that his name he withdrawn from the contest in favor of the other candidate, Thos. A. Buckley. This was done, and the election of the latter was, on motion of Messrs. Mul hearn and Miller, agreed to by acclama- j tlon. The end of the contest was a sur prise to nearly all present, and the council was so relieved that it adjourn ed shortly after. The members will meet tomorrow night at Attorney Can's office to devise means to raise revenue. SIOO Reward, SIOO. The readers of this paper will be pleased to learn that there is at least one dreaded disease that science has been able to cure in all its stages and that is catarrh. Hall's catarrh cure is the only positive cure now known to the medical trat rnity. Catarrh being a constitu tional disease requires a constitutional treatment. Hall's Catarrh Cure is taken internally, acting directly upon the blood and mucous surfaces of the system, thereby destroying the foundation of the disease, and giving the patient strength by building up the constitution and assisting nature in doing its work. The proprietors have so much faith in its curative powers, that they offer one hundred dollars for any case that it faiiS 10 cure. Bend for list of testimonials. Address, F. J.

The young men are quite prominent and have always been on good terms until a week or so ago, when they quarreled about something which they both refuse to toll.

The grand jury for the April term of court met on Monday afternoon. Judge Woodward said the court was over crowded with criminal business, which is constantly increasing, and asked that all trivial and petty cases be ignored. He claimed that the alderman and justices should settle such cases then - selves, hut they preferred to turn them all over to court, as it was more profit able to them. The judge said that a particular case had been continued niuctecn times and that when it was finally settled the costs against the 1 county amounted to nearly $4,000. Threatened Suicide and Left Home. Mrs. Sarah Ilcfcr, of Georgetown, ap peared before Justice Ford, of Wilkes barre, late Tuesday night and informed him that her daughter, about 15 years old, had left her home on Monday morn ing, saying she was going to drown her self for being out so late at night.

Condition of Soft Coal Minora. The legislative committee appointed to Inquire into the condition of the bit uminous coal miners, held its opening session in Pittston on Monday. There were present Senators Ilenry *D. Savior and Alfred Miileisen and Represen tatives Robert McWhinney, P. L. Lytic and J. C. Dixon. The session was devot ed to statements from Pittsburg news paper men who are more or less familiar with conditions in the coal fields. C. A. Sweadner told of the destitution which forced miners' children to pick scraps from ash barrels. Byon H. Butler blamed the company store for much of the minors' wretchedness. The wit nesses united in condemning the com pany store. A. R. Hamilton suggested, as a means >f improving the condition of the miners, that there be a state supervision over •lieckweighmen; that there be 11111 formi r.y in tho size of screens and that the company stores be uhulbhed. He refer red to the general tendency of other branches of trade to improve; that there wore indications of a returning tide of prosperity, but that the "iron clad*' con tracts, which some operators are forcing on their men, would prevent the miners from participating in the good times which are coming. S. F. Luty said any ordinary laborer was much better off than the coal miner. J. B. Johnson said the miners' compla'n of poverty had grown chronic, owing to the development of economic conditions. Natural ga< and machine mining had r< - duced the amount of work. The wit nesses agreed that the miners were worse off than any other class of labor in that vicinity. The committee adjourned to meet again tomorrow, when the miners will be heard. Coercion at Denver Meadow. Corr. in llazlcton Standard. Every matrimonially inclined maiden will be gratified to learn that the single employes of the C'olerine colliery will be requested to join tlie ranks of the noble army of benedicts. This information comes from good authority, and is com mon rumor among the multitude of em ployes engaged ut the colliery. It is said that the employes holding good positions will be given to understand that their services will be better appre ciated if they enter into a state of con nubial bless. Of course there is an object in tliis, which simply means that the company 3to re would profit by the result. Every young man who fails to leave a portion of his .cash at tho store is given a broad hint for not doing so by the appearance of a big X 011 his check on pay day. Some of the poor fellows that it will effect are shivering in their boots, and some of them suggest that the store deal in the material which they are required to provide themselves with, not having the courage to "pop the question." Simply Throwing Money Away. A great many men throughout the country, including plenty of really swell fellows, have got it into their heads rightly or wrongly—and we are by no means sure that it Isn't rightly—that there is no reason why any man should pay more than $3 to $5 for a pair of shoes, and to say the least, the idea has tills foundation in reason, that excellent shoes are now made for $3. To pay $8 to sl2 for a pair of shoes Is simply throwing away money, and in many cases this Is done to gratify a mistaken notion that none but your favorite shoe maker is worthy to adorn your feet. The recent improvements in shoe ma chinery make it possible, as shown by the well known W. L. Douglas $3 shoe, to produce a shoo today that will com pare favorably in style, wearing finali ties and comfort with those offered at $6, $8 and slu per pair. See the adver tisment of the \V. L. Douglas which appears elsewhere in this issue. Special Rules Via Lehigh Valley Railroad for stu dents, account of Easter vacation.

Delightful Touch of Itural Life. Stories that recall the old home among the hills, the silvery brook, the sloping woodland, the wide-stretching meadows, the fragrant hay, and the curious doings of the old folks and the farm hands, will never lose their interest. Such a story is told in the play "Old Farmer Hopkins." A, swei t clean, delightful touch of rural life. Absolutely perfect in its scenery 1 and presentation.
