The Scranton Tribune announces that Congressman Conncll will institute a contest to show that his Democratic opponent, George Howell, was elected by illegal methods. The returns from a number of Republican wards which gave majorities for Howell will be attacked with a view of throwing them out and turning Howell's majority of 401 into a minority. Consternation was hurled among coal haulers throughout Mahanoy City yesterday, when it was announcod that the Reading Company will shortly estab lish a delivery system from its collieries to tho complete expulsion of all other drivers. Tho company already has teams on tho road at Shenandoah and Shamokin. Court yesterday handed down an opin ion deciding that Mayor Corcoran, of Pittston, had illegally drawn 8400 per year from tho city treasury for three years. His salary was Increased from 8000 to 81,000 while he was in ollico and and this was decided to be Illegal by the court.

Chicago News. _Dr. David Kennedys favorite Remedy CURES ALL KIDNEY, STOMACH ~ '■ ■■ AND LIVER TROUBLES* MRS. LILLIAN M. N. STEVENS i'hc Populur I'rcHldcnt of the Nation al W. C. T. U. Mrs. Lillian M. N. Stevens, the popu lar president of the National W. C. T. U., has been at the head of that organ ization since the death of Miss Frances E. Willard in 381)8. Mrs. Stevens was born In Dover, Me., in 1844. Her fa ther, Nathaniel Ames, was a teacher of considerable reputation, and her mother, Nancy Fowler Parsons Ames, was of Scotch descent and a woman of strong character. Mrs. Stevens inherit ed her father's teaching ability and her mother's executive power. When a child, she loved the woods, quiet haunts, a free life and plenty of hooks. She was educated at Westbrook sem inary and Foxcroft academy and after leaving school was for several years •ngaged In teaching In the vicinity of Portland. At twenty-one she married Mr. Stevens and went with her hus band to his home near Portland. Mrs. Stevens llrst met Miss Willard at Old Orchard In the summer of 1875 and there assisted In the organization of the Maine W. C. T. U. Her first office was that of treasurer of the state jnion. She next became president, and MRS. LILLIAN M. N. STEVENS. under her guidance the Maine organi zation soon became conspicuous in the national union and Its president no less conspicuous among the ladies at work In the temperance cause. Mrs. Stevens' udvunee in the union was rapid. She was elected vice president during the life of Miss Willard and succeeded that great reformer us president when Miss Willard died. In addition to her temperance work Mrs. Stevens is connected with a large number of charitable organizations. For years she Ims been the Maine rep resentative In the national conference of charities and correction. In 1802 she was one of the women managers of the World's Columbian exposition and had entire charge of the charities and correction exhibits, Including homes, hospitals, asylums, etc. For three years she was treasurer of the National Council of Women, and when she re signed that position was placed in the cabinet of the council and given the portfolio of moral reform. She has always been a pronounced woman suffragist and stood by Miss Willard stanchly when she Introduced the question of the ballot for women us an aid to temperance reform Into the conventions of the W. C. T. U. against the protests of so many of the mem bers. Care OF a Child** Hair. A little girl's hair should never be washed in ammonia nor should It have a chemical of any kind put upon It. Even horacic acid is bad, and baking so da, which is so necessary for the grown up head, is positively injurious to the hair of the little maid. The hair should be shampooed not of tenor than once In two weeks, and the best shampoo Is that of soap jelly and hot water. Make the soap jelly by shaving a cake of pure soap Into a pint of hot water. Let It stand upon the back of the stove until the soap melts. Remove and put Into a wide mouthed bottle until want ed. Add a tablespoonful to the hot wa ter In which the child's head is to be washed. Do not use water that is too warm. Bo sure upon this matter and test It by thrusting not your hand, but your arm, in the water. It should be only warm enough to be comfortable. Hot water Injures the young roots. Rinse the hair well in warm water, us ing a spray for the purpose, and do not dry In the sun, but dry by shaking the hair out and fanning it. This will keep the scalp clean and healthy. I'NNCCCNNNRY Clatter. There are very few people who seem to realize that nine-tenths of the noise made about a house is unnecessary. It takes no longer to handle things lightly than it does to fling them down belter skelter with such an unearthly din as one often hears in badly regulated households. It takes a little more time to put on a pair of light shoes, instead of the heavy niul cumbersome out of door footwear that some people In dulge in, hut it pnys a good interest on the effort and time. Especially in a sickroom or where there are people who are afflicted with those uncomfort able accompaniments called nerves, hould this be made a study, says Wo man's Life. In one household a special requirement Is that the coal for the sitting room grate shall always bo wrapped either in newspaper or put In bags. In this way much dust Is avoid ed and all the noise that is very un welcome to an invalid who occupies an adjoining room. BNLIY'* Toy*. A baby should have few toys, and these of the simplest kind. The infant with a lot of amusements—always bo lng tossed in the air, danced on the knee, lining a rattle shaken in Its ear or surrounded constantly with all sorts of playthings—lives In a state of un healthy excitement. It grows bored. It wants something new all the time and frets and cries If it doesn't get It. The average healthy baby can find its own amusements. It plays with its toes, stretches its legs, bites its lists experi mentally, watches its mother as she walks around the room, and all this is fun, besides being Just what baby needs. There is a hint for mothers in the low tables and chairs used in the kinder gartens. Children are very uncomfort able if seated any length of time on chairs so high that their feet dangle and do not reach the floor. Low tables bring so much pleasure and comfort to the little ones that once provided the mother will wonder how they were ever allowed to be wanting. Girl*' Ambition*. Many girls will have noticed that as our lives advance our ambitions are apl to become more simple. We learn grad ually to know that in smaller duties better fitted to our hands lies the great est happiness and the possibility for fullest and richest development. Al most every girl when she first beglne to realize that she will probably never fulfill all her girlish umbltions because they are many of them beyond her pos sibilities will have the Inclination to "give up," as the children say. This is apt to be the beginning of real discon tent. and it ought to be battled with Let a girl once try fully to realize what it means to be the Inspiration of some one person's life, the sunshine in tli6 darkened lives of some one or two peo ple, and she will then understand how it may fill her life almost to the brim with happiness.—New York News. Furnitarc and IlnnKlugH. Elaborate cornices and mantels should be banished from the house. It Is too difficult to dust them. The walla should be finished with smooth paper w paint, so that dust will not readily find a lodg ment, and a wall mop will free the wall of what dust would adhere. Itugs should be adopted in place of carpets where possible. The windows should allow sunlight free access and not be covered with heavy draperies, which not only exclude light and air, but ab sorb odors and hold the dust. Very elaborate carvings are undesirable. In fact, furniture and hangings that do not admit of ready cleaning may be considered at once to be insanitary. The wall papers, draperies and car pets should be free from arsenic. VerMntilv ChlcnKM Womnn. "We have the most wonderful teach er of English you ever heard of," writes a New York girl who recently matriculated in the University of Chi cago. "Her name is highly appropri ate. It begins with Drain, and she lives up to the very letter of it. She owns a printing shop, a delicatessen store and an ice cream factory. She caters to Marshall Field and the din ing cars of the Illinois Central and other railroads. She is an A. M. and an M. D., a practicing physician and a trained nurse. She teaches school and writes books. She is a member of al most every club. She owns a husband; but, greater than all, a perfectly charming woman is this Mrs. Brainard. bred and educated in Chicago." Iron Kettle*. To mend Iron kettles heat two parts of sulphur until melted, add one part blacklead and stir briskly; pour out, and when cold break into bits. Apply to the cracks, and melt with a soldering iron. Those that are discarded by the tinner will do very well for household use and cost little or nothing. Litharge mixed with glycerin to the consistency of putty will close cracks in kettles. I)o not use after applying for twenty four hours. Dn*t Clotlm. Frovident housewives never for a moment consider buying dust cloths, for there is always some garment be ing discarded that can be used for this purpose—soft silk petticoats, old silk pocket handkerchiefs, for example. If dust cloths have to be bought, cheese cloth Is the best material for the pur pose. Three-quarters of a yard is am ple for each cloth. Naturally they should be hemmed, as should also the silk ones. A Bal Combination. As you value your own and your fam ily's digestion don't serve tea with fish. The tannic acid hardens the fiber and makes it indigestible. It should not be offered with any form of fish, shellfish or the articulate animals like lobsters and crabs. Iced tea and soft shell crabs, for example, are a combination that should be avoided.—Harper's Bazar. Bronsen. Do not scour your bronzes. If you do you will be sorry. Real bronze articles, when they stand in need of cleaning, can be regularly washed in boiling wa ter and soap. They should be after ward dried with a chamois skin. There are several other methods, one being the application of a dry, rough cloth. The best way to clean doormats IR to turn them upside down and give them a vigorous stamping with the feet. This frees the dust better than taking the mats up and shaking them. Keep a bottle of conl oil uncorked in side the clock case and the clock will not need oiling. Replenish as the oil evaporates. Bamboo furniture may best be cleaned with a small brush dipped in warm water and salt. Damp towels should never be left in a claiet that is dark, consequently not ventilated. I REDS AND YELLOWS. Organization* of IJnlon and Scab Coal Miner* In France. Sterling Ileillg, special correspond ent of the Washington Star, writing from Valenciennes, France, under date of Oct. 10, says; Here, in the midst of the great gen eral strike of the coal miners of all France, I have Just seen 150 "scab" or "yellow" men returning from their work in one pit while 800 strikers howled out threats and curses at them. This was all they did, for each "scab" was protected by three soldiers, who accompanied them In groups to their homes in the nearby villages of Have luy and Wallers. The same night the strikers' "pa trols" passed through Haveluy and Wallers. There were no soldiers pres ent to protect the "scabs"—or, as I shall call them henceforth, "yellows"— in their houses. The patrols cried out their principles, cursed all false broth ers and heaved broken bricks and stones and clods of dirt through "yel low" windows. Behind these windows a strange sight might have been seen had not the cottages been darkened. Each was bar ricaded and contained a little garrison of six or eight determined "yellows" armed with remodeled army riJes and revolvers. When the strikers' patrol had passed, they slept, to be fresh for their work next morning. The coal companies allow them for the sleeping time they may thus lose protecting themselves and the rights of individu als to work at will. Valenciennes, like Haveluy and Wal lers and all the towns of this region, Is placarded with announcements of two very different characters. These are the strikers' proclamations and the proclamations of the "yellows." These proclamations and the facta that stand behind them show a very strange development of the great gen eral strike that has been so much threatened and feared in France for two years past. Here we are, at last, In the midst of it Yet the coal com pany of Auzln, for example, where the strike is supposed to be typically suc cessful, reports 2,283 "yellow" work ers to 8,338 strikers. In other mines the proportion of "yellows" is still greater. From the Fas de Calais re gion and from the mines of central France the same news comes—the "yellows" are well organized and armed, their central syndicate in Paris is as active as that of the strikers, und new recruits ready to work hasten to enroll themselves from out the unem ployed of every section. This is the latest phase of the great labor union question In the land of France, the land of new ideas, where things originate and are tried for the rest of the world. "Yellowism" may come to solve or complicate, with bloody strife, the already complicated labor union problem. "Yellowism" means the organization of all "scabs" —that is, independent individual work men—against the la'bor unions of a country. In both the coal regions of the north and the center of France the "yellows" are particularly strong. Here around about Valenciennes their "syndicats," or local unions, are as highly organized us are those of the striking labor un ions. They are directed by energetic men, who have not feared to placard the whole region with proclamations and arguments against the general strike and urging the miners to em ploy force if necessary to assert their right to labor at their individual pleasure. In Valenciennes they have a weekly paper devoted to their cause, and it is said to have a paid circulation of 0,000 copies weekly. Moreover, as the news now runs, del egates from this region to a congress of "yellows" held in Paris have re turned, bringing with them arms with which to resist the strikers should the soldiers, for political or other reasons, be called from their protection or prove insufficient. With regard to this latter possibility an expression from the lips of M. Bexant, local secretary of the strikers' federation, is now running through Valenciennes and has been telegraphed to Paris. Questioned about the danger of bloodshed should the strikers meet the troops, he said publicly: "We fear nothing." "Nevertheless," replied his question er, "the situation may become grave. The troops were obliged to charge again yesterday." "I think that the Roldiers will not do us any harm," said the local secretary of the strikers significantly. "If they do, they will oblige us to do harm to them." Meanwhile we are assured' by a reac tionary paper, devoted to the interests of the "yellows," that the delegates of the north to the recent congress of "yellows" brought back with them from Paris 040 army revolvers and 45,- 000 cartridges. Want Recognition. The National Association of Steam and Hot Water Fitters and Helpers is out with a letter to organized ,labor generally, calling attention to the claims of that organization for recog nition which are denied by the United Association of Plumbers. Gas Fitters, Steam Fitters and Steam Fitters' Help ers. The national association claims in this letter that it is at least a year old er than the United association and that its members are good, sound union men. A request is made that labor or ganizations generally give them the same recognition allowed the United association, with admission to central labor bodies and other privileges. The National association is affiliated with the American Federation of Labor and with the National Building Trades council. OINTS FOR FARMERS Rye a* a Cover Crop. In reply to the Inquiry of a Pennsyl vania correspondent about the use of rye I would say It will undoubtedly serve a most excellent purpose for a cover crop under certain conditions. It Is not to be recommended for all pur poses, particularly on land thnt is de ficient in nitrogen. It should be borne in mind that rye will add practically no plant food to the soil when turned under In the spring as a green manur ing crop. On the other hand, legumi nous crops will probably add some thing to the store of plunt food already in the soil. It is true that rye when turned under as a green manuring crop may materially aid the succeed ing crop indirectly. If the crop is too alkaline, the plowing under of a con siderable amount of green rye in the spring will tend to neutralize the soil. The decomposition of the rye in the soil would also tend to liberate the plant food that is in the soil. The rye, however, will not add directly to the store of plant food. Some of the vetches or crimson clover would be preferred if additional nitrogen is desired. Rye is hard}*, quick growing and will en dure the rigors of the winter well and on this account is oftentimes highly prized as a cover crop. The purposes for which the cover crop is desired should determine whether rye is best suited or not.—Professor G. C. Watson, Pennsylvania State College. Conl n* Corn. Already talk is current of burning corn in Kansas on account of the high price of coal and the large crop of corn. This talk may be taken with a considerable grain of salt. It is not unlikely that corn which will grade contract* will bring a pretty fair price in the market this winter, as reports from the northern section of the corn belt, including lowa and Nebraska, are to the effect that a large propor tion of the crop will not grade. It is possible that a shortage of coal may materialize which will make a virtue of necessity, and some farmers situ ated at a distance from markets may possibly find it profitable to use corn as fuel, but such conditions will scarcely prevail over any considerable portion of the Sunflower State. The hungry mouths of cattle and swine will likely afford a far more profitable storage for corn than the stoves and ranges. Lot us hope that such an anom alous condition as the use of corn for fuel will not again be noted even in the state where great corn grows and na ture has been rather niggard of dusky diamonds. Shun the Hoof Durner. That odor of burned hoofs which one gets in passing a blacksmith shop Is an offense to the nostrils, and the cause of it should be an offense to any one who has respect for the horse. This burning of the hoofs every time the animal is shod is a lazy or Incompetent man's makeshift for fitting the shoes, and the practice is on a par with the use of embalming fluid in milk to avoid thorough washing of the cans. Now and then a blacksmith may be found with enough common sense and me chanical genius to fit a shoe properly without burning the hoof. We would go several miles out of our way to have work done by him.—Rural New Yorker. Lime and Phosphoric Acid. Should lime and acid phosphate be applied to a field the same season? The man who knows only pure chemistry will be quick to say that it should not. The lime would cause the soluble phos phoric acid to revert and become in soluble. But the Ohio station tested the matter in the field, and the half plats receiving the lime and acid phos phate have better clover and grass than the half plats receiving phosphute alone or lime alone. Others have got similar results, and thus again are our greatest obligations due only to those scientists broad enough to make the field a part of their laboratory In soil investigations. Fix t'p For Winter. It is better to have everything in good condition than to have to make repairs when weather conditions force it. All leaky roofs should be attended to first, for they are costly, as they cause destruction and loss in crops and other conditions. Broken panes in the sashes, loose boards, sagging doors, mangers or feed racks out of repair should all now be promptly attended to. There is nothing like having every thing in perfect condition when it be comes necessary to house the stock and store the crops. Dry Fruit Seed*. The seeds of all fruits should not be allowed to become very dry before planting, but they need not be kept wet. They are the better for fall planting, but may be stratified or mixed with moist eartli and kept over winter in perfect condition. When early spring comes, they should be ' planted in good garden soil, about one j inch deep, and in rows that will allow ' good tillage. The seeds may be sent by mail or express in a reasonably dry state to any part of this country. The Apple Crop. The New England Homestead esti mates this year's apple crop at 43,000,- : 000 barrels against 27,000,000 barrels i last year. The quality is rather unsat | isfactory in the central and western states, but in New England better than i last year. The New York crop is re ported as large. This is contrary to general reports from that state, which Indicate that the crop there Is spotted— ■ in 6ome sections large aud in others • decidedly deficient $4,110 SENT FREE!
