Au gustus Pitou, Jr., who is business man ager of the company, was well pleased with the showing made by the town and promised to aid in securing other high class plays for Freeland. Owing to the suiallness of tho stage quite a lot of tho scenery could not be erected.

Conrad Wasselman, aged 37 years, committed suicide by drinking carbolic acid at Ilazleton on Friday. He lost bis position as watchman at Cranberry Junction some time ago and this preyed heavily on his mind. He leaves a wife and three children. A three-year-old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Anthony O'Donnell, former resi dents of town, died at Hokendauquu 011 Thursday. The little ono was playing with fire and in some manner ignited her clothing, with a fatal result. The funerals of Mrs. Charles Sweeney, of Frecland, and Mrs. Solomon Bittner, of Jeddo, took place on Friday and the remains of both were followed to their last resting place by many friends and acquaintances.

James Smith, a well known resident of Oakdale, died on Friday at t he age of 52 years. lie was a victim of asthma. The remains were taken this morning to Berwick for interment. John Ilirbach died in Laurytown hos pital early Saturday morning. IB; was taken there the day before from Ilazle Brook. The unfortunate man's death was due to consumption. William 11. Cool, an ex-judge of Car bon county, died at IMttston on Friday, aged 112 years. At the time of his death ho was interested in several collieries in the Wyoming valley. An infant child of Mr. and Mrs. Charles Snyder, of Jeddo, died on Friday at Lehighton, where its parents wen visiting. Knight* f Malta in Court. An interesting case to mernbers*of tin order known as the Knights of Malta and others who I elong to secret benefi cial societies is the suit in equity brought by the Ancient and Illustrious Order Knights of Malta against the American and Independent Order Knights of Mal ta, which is now being heard in the courts of Philadelphia. It is the desire of the Ancient and Illustrious Order to have the other organization, which is of recent origin, prevented from using the work and ritual adopted by the parent body, and with that end in view an in junction was secured some time ago restraining the younger organization in carrying on its work. From the testimony which has been given by many members of both socie ties, including many men high in the ranks of tlio older concern and who have come from different cities to give their testimony, it appears that there has been a serious split in the order. What the decision in tlie case will be may not bo known for several days, although prominent members of the order are of the opinion that the bulk of the testimony is in favor of the new order. Tlii* Year Not a Leap Year. This year is not a leap year. Al though'the number of the year is divisi ble by 4, which is the rule for finding leup year, It comes under the exception, which says that the rule shall not apply in a century year unless the figures before the 00 are also evenly divisible by 4. A further exception to the rule will occur in the year 4000, which will not be a leap year, although its number is divisible by 4. The explanation is to be found in the length of the year, which is not exactly 3(35 days but 365 days, 5 hours, 48 minutes and 46 sec onds. The odd hours and minutes required the addition of a day every fourth year in order to keep the time approximately accurate; but to make it entirety so a day must be eliminated in three out of every 400 years, and another once in 4000 years. People who were born on February 20 will have no birthday this year. Strangled by the Standard. The Standard Oil Company has, through its own peculiar system, pur chased the Interests of the Mineral Oil Company in Wilkes bar re, Scran ton and other places. The company was owned by J. C. Bright, of Pottsvllie, who has a number of plants. The price paid in connection with the Wilkesbarre and Scranton plants is said to be SIO,OOO Mr. Bright lias also sold to the Standard Ills plants at Pottsville, Reading and Hazleton. The sale of Mr. Bright's interests is forced, as the Standard wo tilt! have come into the field as a mom aggressive 1 competitor. Mr. Blight's holdings havetf been growing gradually and now com? maud a good trade, and this makes them dangerous to tho Standard. A year ago Mr. Bright was compelled to sell his plants at MifHinvillc, Blooms burg, Williamsport and Watsontown. Lot us furnish your business station ery for this year.

Price is No Guide to the Amount of Nourishment—One Half Our In comes Spent Blindly—Useless Ex pense That Fritters Away Money. The current number of What to Eat contains an article by Laura Clark Rock wood on the "Pecuniary Value of I Food," which is worthy of consider ation. The greatest percentage of the earnings of the wage-workers of the country is spent for food but, unfor tunately, the money is spent more or less blindly, she declares. That is, the man or woman who does the buy ing determines the purchase largely by taste or by chance, as the case may be, without regard to the nutritive values. And this mistake is through no spe cial fault of theirs, but because there is a great lack of general knowledge upon the subject of the pecuniary economy and nuitritive value of foods. The average income of the people of this country is small, not over SSOO per annum, and statistics show that of this amount over one-half is spent for food. In many cases it has been found that less money might have been expended with better results; that is, the different members of the family might have been better nour ished through a different selection of cheaper food. The most economi cal food is that which is best adapt ed to the requirements of the user, which will best nourish the body, which will "agree" with him, and which is the least costly. It is all very well for those who can afford porterhouse steak to use it, but the rank and file cannot afford it, and what they need to know is a palatable way to prepare the cheaper cuts. A butcher in New York said that he had great difficulty in trying to convince a poor seamstress, who always bought tenderloin steaks at 60 cents a pound, that she might get just as much nour ishment from the cheaper cuts. She was rather insulted at the idea, ana said with some dignity that she al ways bought the best. Now this is certainly a case where the best is not always the cheapest. For instance, bearing in mind that neck meat is richer in protein than tenderloin steak, let us consider the pecuniary value of each With our lower prices here in the West we can purchase two pounds of steak for 30 cents, and this amount will make a meal for four people, there being, of course, considerable waste in the way of fat and trimmings. This same 30 cents will buy four pounds of neck meat. In our house hold we cook it by thoroughly brown ing all sides of it in hot butter in which there is a slice of onion. This searing over the outside serves to re tain the juice. Then boiling water enough to keep the meat from burn ing is added and the meat allowed to simmer for three hours. Add salt and pepper a short time before it is done. A half hour before dinner dnmplings are made and added to the contents of the kettle. The result is as savory and nutritious a dish as one could wish. A second serving of the same meat appears as croquettes into which the gravy left front the first day is incorporated, and a third serv ing takes the form of hash, minced meat on toast or meat soufle, and thus the meat for three meals has been provided at a cost of only 30 cents. Do not despise hash. It is a tempt ing dish when properly prepared. Chop the meat fine and put in the skil let with a little boiling water, butter, pepper and salt. Spread the chopped potato on top. Cover closely and let the potato steam through, but do not stir it into the meat until just before taking it from the stove. The nutri tive value of whole wheat flour is not appreciated as it should be, for the food value of a pound of flour is much greater than that of a pound of meat, while its cost is very much less. It is safe to say that many people spend much more for their food than is necessary. In a recent article in one of the leading magazines a per centage of over three-fourths of the income was given for necessities, and that when the income varied from sl,- 500 to $2,000. That ratio for a family of four was much too large, for in the West, where food is comparatively cheap, a family of four can live very well on S4OO a year, judiciously ex pended for food. This sum, of course, does not Include the cost of preparing the food ; that is servants' wages. Tommy Shearer Company.

George Stephenson, who pleaded guilty to the charge of forgery, having accom panied Mrs. Alice Jones, of Parsons, when she mortgaged her husband's property, and eloped witli Stephenson to England, where they were arrested, was called before Judge Lynch 011 Thursday for sentence. "What has become of the woman ill the case?" asked Judge Lynch, who remembered that she had not been called to trial. "We will place her on trial at the next term," said District Attorney Martin. "Well, then, we will lot this case stand," responded Judge Lynch, "until wo see what becomes of her case. We don't want to punish the man and let the woman escape—make fish of 0110 and flesh of another. The woman Is not a girl. She know what she was do ing.
