Wliat the Aniinntlscope Shows.
From the Nantiooko News, September 19.
The Niver Animatiscopo Company pre
sented Its new and unrivalled entertain
ment to a large and appreciative audi
ence on Saturday evening. Many in
teresting and thrilling life-motion scenes
of the Spanish-American war were pro
duced in picture form on canvas, lifo
sizo. The cavalry charge of Roosevelt's
Rough Riders near El Caney was exceed
ingly lino. The full charge can be seen
coming upward over the Cuban hills at
a very rapid gallop until they come im
mediately before the audience and then
they pass in full sizo off the screen to
ilie right.
The famous dynamite gun Is shown In
the. battlefields "while the cannons are
booming on all sides, as it was operated
by the Ohio volunteers at Abinita; the
wonderful gun is loaded before the au
dience aud discharged to the right in a
manner that makes one trcmbo on ac
count of its likeness to reality.
The Seventy-first regiment of New
York city is seon in parade and under a
difficult drill; the American flag waves
proudly over tho brave boys as they
march along under martial tread; groat
crowds of people aro soon on all sides
witnessing the event.
American marines aro seon to climb
tho flag polo in front of tho Spanish fort
at Cavite. near Manilla, and tear down
tho bated Spanish ensign from its digni
fied position and tho Stars and Stripes
aro raised Instead. Tho scene of a bull
light which took place at Sovillo, Spain,
while the Spanish-Amoriean war was
hottest, was presented. There wero
many other scenes which show men
struggling for their lives while tho
American flag proudly floats over them
on the smoky battlefield. All pictures
are clear and distinct, being from the
jerky, eye-straining motion peculiar to
most picture machines.
Between the pictures the audienco is
entertained by Edison's very latest
phonograph, which is verv loud and
clear, being very distinctly heard in
every part of the auditorium. The rec
ords are appropriate and unexcelled.
At tho Grand opera house Wednesday
evening. Proceeds for the benefit of
the English Baptist church.

We kindly and sincerely thank the
friends and neighbors who assisted us
during tho sickness and death of our

ADVANCING DEMOCRACY.
SKIES ARE BRIGHT WITH SIGNS OF
VICTORY IN OLD LUZURNE.
Chairman Daich and His AnelMtanta Are
WorUnj Hard for the County Candi
dates and a Glorious Triumph Is Indi
cated by the Report* Coining In.
As the campaign advances it becomes
tnoro apparent to the eye of thccaltnand
intelligent observer, that Democracy in
Luzerne is not only holding what it
gained last year, hut is making steady
inroads In the common enemy. At
headquarters in this city, says the
YVilko.-b.irre Afewedealcr, old campaigners
assort that it brings hack recollections
of the long-ago, when Democracy was
tho ono great ruling party, to soe the
hustle and bustle that is astir. Chair
man Dasch and his assistants have no
time for anything else than hard work,
which they are doing with a will. Every
report that conios In from tho several
districts throughout tho big county
brings only the most encouraging ac
counts of tho situation. This makes it
certain that there is to be a strong and
a hot muster at tho final roundup on
November 8, with the probability of
seeing the old Democratic Hag waving in
triumph over a complete and splendid
victory.
Mr. Davenport, tho attractive con
gressional candidate, is winning friends
every day. He is making a magnificont
canvass and will bring to the polls every
Democrat in tho county, and if this is
done his success and that of tho whole
ticket is sure. There is no brass band
about this gentleman. He has no agents
out with contributions from a big bar'l,
working along the highways and byways
and especially in the dark recesses of
tho night. He Is not a millionaire and.
therefore, must work alono upon his
merits. But ho is a strong man, which
is particularly revealed in tho fact that
he has already installed in tho breast of
his adversary tho most alarming appre
hensions. He is going along at a steady
gait now, but his friends predict that on
the homestretch ho will show such speed
as to make him come under the wire a
sure winner.
Mr. McGinty is putting up a brilliant
fight and his friends are proud of him.
He has been ceaselessly at work since
the battle opened and there are no signs
of liis tiring. Indeed this would bo im
possible in tho face of tho encourage
ment ho is meeting with everywhere.
The same old friends who stood by him
in two memorable contests, greet him
with their old time fervor and tell him
not to bother about them as they are to
bo relied upon. Even down in tho lower
end, where his opponent hails from, his
name Is upon ovory Democratic lip. He
is making the fight of his life with the
odds a hundred to ono in his favor.
The sweep of tho Shiffer movement is
marvelous. All ovor the county men
aro working for him as they never work
ed before for any other candidate. And
there is reason for this. Honest men
know that his opponent, Lloyd, is mak
ing a canvass on hypocritical grounds;
that he has assumed the role of a politi
cal saint to exalt himself. That with
him, self is first aud principle last.
Analyzing this man's claims to distinc
tive honors as a reformer, they find that
there is nothing on the record to sub
stantiate them. In every contest ho has
made to bring up tho idea that lie was
the "taxpayers' friend," the county has
been mulcted in large snins and the tax
payers' burdens liavo been added to.
People ail over the county are beginning
to realize the gigantic political sham he
is, and aro turning In eagor hasto
toward Shiffer, the gallant and unexcep
tionable Democratic nominee for con
troller. And this fact settles Mr.
Lloyd's chances.
No ono doubts the ultimate fate of the
Nanticoke Koslusko. He Is a man of
destiny, and like his great countryman
and renowned soldier, will come in at
tho finish a magnificont winner. Mr.
Gabriel is showing his strength every
day. Voters are (locking to his standard
constantly. He Is lighting like a tiger
and when ho bows to his friends in
answer to thoir glad greetings, from the
recorder's chair on New Year's day,
himself and Democracy will bo honored.
With tho general victory, of course,
the candidates for coroner and surveyor,
both able men and true Democrats, will
be swept along witli the tide, and the
bosom of that tide today shimmers with
tho bright promises of success, because
over all its surface not a taint is seen or
a tingo of defilement.
There is more catarrh in this section
of the country than all other diseases
put together, and until the last few
years was supposed to be incurable.
For a great many years doctors pro
nounced it a local disease, and prescrib
ed local remedies, and by constantly
failing to care with local treatment, pro
notiuced it incurable. Science has
proven catarrh to be a constitutional
disease and therefore requires constitu
tional treatment. Hall's Catarrh Cure,
ni ami fact u red by F. J. Cheney & Co.,
Toledo, Ohio, is the only constitutional
cure on the market. It is taken in
ternally in doses from ten drops to a
teaspoonful. It nets directly on the
blood and mucous surfaces of the sys
tem. They offer one hundred dollars
for any case it fails to cure. Bond for
circulars and testimonials. Address.

UPPER LEHIGH NOTES.
The Betterly death benefit dispute,
the circustances of which were explain
ed in theso columns recently, was settled
finally on Saturday, when the employes
received their September pay. Half a
day's wages was deducted from each em
ploye, notwithstanding that the vote
taken on the question last week was 108
to 00 against paying tho money. Three
times the employes voted against pay
ing this claim. Some of the men state
they have sought legal opinions and say
they have been advised to retain their
pay checks until they leave tho com
pany's employ. Tho matter has caused
no small amount of ill feeling in and
around the mines.
Dr. H. M. Neale was called yesterday
to Berwick, and was driven there b\
Liveryman O'Donnell, of Frccland.
Prothonotary Paul Dasch spent yes
yesterday witli friends here.
William Challenger is spending a week
with Scranlon friends.
May Form a New Union.
The quarterly meeting of delegates
representing the temperance societies of
tho Fourth district of the Scranton
union was held yesterday at McAdoo.
The question of forming a new union,
embracing the societies of lower Lu
zerne, Carbon, part of Schuylkill and
towns in the Lehigh valley, formed tho
principal subject of discussion. The
question was discussed thoroughly by
the delegates, and while many strenously
advocated the now union tho majority
of tho societies were not disposed to
leave the Scranton union. The matter
will be taken up again at the next meet
ing, which will be held at Jcanesvillc on
January 22.
Wants Careless Miners Arrested.
William Stein, mine inspector for tho
First anthracite district, has requested
the state bureau of mines and mining
to prosecute Michael Mackinofski and
Michael Garlot," two miners of Shenan
doah, for causing the death of Stephon
Sraoleskey, in the Ellangowan colliery
last Wednesday, by alleged criminal
carelessness. The accused men were
driving a heading towards a chamber in
which the victim was working when the
last shot was fired to put the heading
through; Smoleskey was buried under
tons of rock and coal, and horribly
mangled. It Is alleged that tho victim
was not notified that the shot was to bo
fired.
Week's Engagement Ended.
Tho Labadie Company ended Its week's
engagement hero on Saturday evening
by presenting "For Liberty" to a large
house. The play was not given in the
company's usual creditable manner. A
"Yellow Kid" matinee the same after
noon was also well attended. "East
Lynne" on Friday evening drew a fair
audienco. "Faust" on Thursday even
ing was a record-breaker, every ono of
the 500 seats in tho house being sold and
270 admissions were collected at tho
gallery entrance. Tho company gave a
good presentation of this very difficult
piece, the electrical effects especially
being excellent.
Chefttnuta for Winter Use.
A good plan for storing chestnuts for
winter use is to place a small quanlty of
salt in the bags with tho nuts. They
will then become soft and sweet and any
worms which happen to be among them
will be driven out. Tho bags will be
come covered with sweat caused by the
salt, but this will not impair the quality
of tho nuts in tho slightest degree. This
plan is followed by many persons and is
considered one of the best.
Deeds Legally Acknowledged.
The following deeds have been ac
knowledged in court:
Of Herman \V. Fackler, in Frooland,
to Chas. O. Stroh for $39.
Of 11. I*. Malloy, In Frceland, to Citi

JENKS AT HAZLETON.
Rouging Reception Given the Democratic
State Candidates.
One of the largest political meetings
held In tho Hazleton region for years
took place on Saturday evening. The
Democratic state candidates were pres
ent and addressed the gathering, and
Hazle hall never held a more enthu
siastic body of men than was there
assembled. The meeting was presided
over by ox-State Chairman E. P. Kistior.
and on the stage sat many prominent
Democrats, every part of the lower end
being fully represented.
Hon. George A. Jenks, the candidate
for governor, was the first speaker.
His address was confined to state issues.
It. was a masterly oration—calm and
dispassionate, but filled from beginning !
to end with proofs of the terrible corrup
tion that exists in the departments of
state in Pennsylvania. He held the at
tention of the audience steadily to the
end, and was frequently applauded.
William 11. Sowden, of Lehigh county,
the candidate for lieutenant governor,
followed Mr. Jenks. 11 is address was
the most sensational of tho evening.
The charges of dishonesty, common,
thieving and robbery of public funds
which he made against Quay and the
tools of the boss were not of the general
and vague order, but specific instances
were named and tho proof furnished.
His story of tho sale of postoffices in
Lehigh county, which Quay miserably
failed to refute, was repeated, and sup
plemented with additional details of the
scandal attached to the appointment of
a postmaster at Hazleton. He told how
Thouias A. Harris, of Lattimor, who
was sent to Ilarrisburg to vote for Leis
enring for governor, was given notice in
tho presence of C. W. Wilde, William
Schwartz and William Adams, at Ilar
risburg, that lie (Harris) must vote for
Quay's man Stone for governor, other
wise Harris' friend, William Powell,
would not be appointed postmaster at
Hazleton.
He told how Harris then betrayed
Lelsonring at the command of Boss Quay
and Congressman Morgan B. Williams,
voting for Stone instead of for Leisen
ring, and for this perfidy and treachery
to the Republicans of tho Fourth dis
trict Powell was given the postmaster
ship. Numerous other similar cases
were told of by the speaker.
Captain DeLacey, of Scranton, candi
date for secretary of internal affairs,
who wears a congressional medal for
bravery in the civil war, was next and
gave an entertaining speech.
Stanley W. Davenport, Joseph J. Mc-
Ginty and Dr. Singer, county candi
dates, also delivered addresses, and their
reception was such as to fully convince
them that lower Luzerne will do its duty
on election day.

Committed Suicide in New York.
William Sterritt, of No. 1705 Third
avenue, committed suicide in his apart
ments on Wednesday by cutting his 1
throat with a razor. Sterritt, his wife
and live children, three girls and two
boys, lived at the Third avenue house.
He was employed as a laborer on the
"L" road, but for the past few weeks
lias not been working. His wifo said
that for the past year bo has been very
melancholy. A few weeks ago ho knock
ed off work and was more melancholy
than over.— Ntw York Journal.
Sterritt was well-known hi Freeland
and has a number of relatives here.
Two years ago ho spont a few months
in Frooland, and his general demeanor
at that time denoted a despondent dis
position and his mind appeared to

More Mine Mule* to Go.
The inside workings of the Shenan
doah city colliery, operated by tho
Philadelphia and Reading Company, are
being inspected by representatives of
tho Baldwin Locomotive Works, of
Philadelphia, for the purpose of intro
ducing compressed air engines to haul
cars through the mines, supplanting the
mule power now in use. The system is
working successfully in Drifton mines,
and the chango will bo made in the near
futuro in tho Shenandoah colliery, and
it is expected it will be tho means of
saving many thousands of dollars and
doing away with mule power. At this
colliery there are sixty-live mules em
ployed, and it takes a team of three
mules to haul nine cars a trip, whereas,
the now engines, it is claimed, can haul
at least twenty cars in each trip, and do
the work in half the time.
Born With u Needle in III* Ley;*
Mrs. Oscar Stanley, of Pittston, gave
birth to a baby nine days ago. When
it was placed in care of the nurse sho
found a rather peculiar pimple on the

very sore and it also became very large.
On Tuesday when sho wus bathing tho
chlid her hand came in contract with a
sharp projection. She called a physician
and he found that there was a needle in
tho child. It was finally extracted and
proved to bo two inches in length. It
was in the child when it was born. 110
thinks tho mother swallowed it prob
ably many years ago. Tho child Is
sound as a dollar today and will never

was born with a needle In him.
