A Remedy of Great Xnlne.

In an article on Proprietary remedies,
which appeared in a recent issue of the
"St Louis, Mo-, Medical Brief" Prof.
Willard H. Morse. M. d. f. B. S. Sc, of
Westiield, N. j., says: "One notable in
stance in point of efficacy Is offered by
DR.. David Kennedy's Favorte Remedy
which has earned reputation as curative
of Brlght's disease and other affections of
the kidneys" In concluding the article,
DR.. Morse says Manifestly, therefore,
treatment Of the kidneys and bladder,
both preventive and curative calls pri-
marily for the exclusion of all factors
causative of functional derangemente.
Diseases of the kidneys demands re-es-
adjustments of normal functions, de-
structlon of the micro organism causing
the disease, and repair Of the ravages.
These three demands are fulfilled by DR..
David Kennedy's Favorite Remedy-it re-
Institutes and regulates the renal func,,
tlons, 1t destroys the causal germ, anu
repairs the broken down tissues"
DIR. David Kennedy's Favorite Remedy
is an unfaillng specific for such diseases
as rheumatism, neuralgia, billousness,
dyspepsia, kidney and liver complaints.
In Bright's disease, diabetes. urinary
troubles and the sickness peculiar to wo-
men, II cures where all else falls.

Too Much to Ask Him to Open His Barn
Doors,

Too Much TO Ask Him to Open His Barn
Doors.
DR.. Seward Webb knows a good story
when he hears it, and he had chance
TO pick up many Of that kind while
he was building his railroad through
the Adirondacks. One of his collection
according to the New York Press, re-
lates to an old Welshman in remote
hamlet in the woods, a hundred years
behind the time-a community to which
the Black River railroad was a trunk
line and the city of Utica great
metropolis. The surveyors had laid out
the line and the appraisers went
through securing property. One of the
hardest men to handle was old Elder
Beriah Jones.
Nothing suited him. He objected to
the railroad, he protested against the
award and he made as much trouble
as he possibly could. Finally he was
told that there was no help for it, that
they would have to run the railroad
through his barn. yen do nothing Of
the sortw shouted the old man, vehe-
mently. Run that railroad through
my barn? I'd like to see you do it! Do
you think I'm goin to get up and open
that barn door every time a train
whistles to go through" OF course,
they had to pay him twice the value
of his barn before he would let them
take il away

NARROWLY ESCAPED DEATH.
Michael White Struck by All Engine and
Is Made u Prisoner.

Michael White, well known man in
the city, was struck by an engine on the
| Delaware, Lackawanna and Western
track last evening. White was walk
ing the track below the Mount Pleas
ant mine when the accident occurred.
After being picked up by the trainmen
White asked what he had done to be
struck in such a manner by any man.
He was informed that the blow was
dealt by a locomotive and he laconical-
ly replied that he thought it was a
strong hit.
He was tenderly lifted and put on
car and taken to the depot and DR..
Rudisall, of the hospital, was sent for,
who examined his injuries and pro-
nounced them to be merely superficial.
Rescued from the jaws of death
White sauntered out into Lackawanna
avenue with traces, however, of his con-
fiict with the locomotive when a citizen
espied him and handed him over to
Patrolman Mein2er, who in turn showed
him to Chief Simpson, who finally sug-
gested that he should be taken to the
station house for the night to avoid any
possibility of waging war with more
locomotives
Upon arrival at the station house
White was searched and two pair of
spectacles were found on him, which.
he explained he used 'one for day and
one for night" A razor was also found
and a broken bottle, the relics of his
escapade. White throughout dealt
very lightly with the matter and did not
appreciate that he had been in any dam
ger.

WASHINGTON VS.. NAPOLEON
Why Not Revive Interest in the Father of
His Country?

The violent revival of interest in Ma
poleon, says Harper's Weekly, suggests
that the day will come presently when
1t will occur to some magazine editor
or other observing person to organize
a literary resurrection of General
George Washington. Washington has
by no means been forgotten in this
country. Indeed, he is called to mind
every year on his birthday, when his
career and character are the subject
of editorial articles in numbers of news
papers.
But in that part of the country which
has developed in the last ninety years
he Is by no means so conspicuously be-
fore the public as in the older cities and
states that knew him personally and
were honored by his presence. In these
older localities his efilgles abound and
his dignified figure Is familiar, but west
of the Hudson Washington monuments
are scarce, and the Father of his Coun-
try Is by no means as familiar to the
eye as Lincoln, Grant and other heroes
of the civil war. A Washington revival
will be welcome and salutary whenever
1t comes, and If 1t brings a new crop
of monuments with 1t, so much the bet
ter.

FOR CILT-EDCED base BALL
Plans for Making Next Seasons Team
a Winner.
WANT A HIGH-GRADE MANAGER
Buckenbergcr Last Years pttsburg Man.
ager Applies for the -IIanlon
Tied TO State League-Trihute
to Cahilrs memory.

If last nights meeting of the Scran-
ton Base Ball association is any cri-
terion next year will witness the very
best manager obtainable in charge of
the club, which will be organized with
the paramount idea of making It gilt
edged in every particular. The sense
of the meeting was that a winning
team and well managed team, though
expensive, will bring the stockholders
financial returns for the outlay.
From present indications either A. c.
Buckenberger, last seasons manager
of the Pittsburgs, or John Hanlon, late
manager of the Hazletons and now
president Of the State league, will man
age the Scranton club next year. Buck
enberger yesterday wired w. L. Belts,
making application for the manager
ship and asking for terms. Hanlon in
answer to a letter from Mr.. Belts,
wired yesterday that he could not hon
orably withdraw from his present con-
nectiOn with the State league, but Han
Ions reply Is thought to have been for
the purpose of making the Scranton
people more anxious to secure him and
such may possibly be the outcome.
No Use for Tim Hurst.
The members last night did not con-
slider very favorably the application of
Timothy Hurst, last season an umpire
in the National league. From Danny
Richardson, the noted National league
second baseman, was received letter
containing the phrase, mo more base
ball for me-" and an inference that he
would in future devote himself to his
mercantile business in Elmlra. Nichol-
son, of Erie, and Charlie Morton had
been communicated with in reference to
managing the team, but the former has
signed with Baltimore and Morton will
manage the Buffalo club.
Among the players whom Tommy
Cahill was negotiating with before his
death and who may yet sign with
Scranton are Ollie Smith, late left
fielder of the Louisvilles; George
Nichols, late pitcher of the Louisvilles,
and Second Baseman Pickett, of the
Troys, who is said to be the crackajack
player in that position in the Eastern
league.
Mr.. Belts has forwarded to the father
of Tommy Cahill a letter recently re-
ceived from Patrick Powers, president
of the league in which Mr. Powers pays
a weighty tribute to the memory of the
late manager. The letter cites Cahill
as one of the most honorable, capable
and brainy base ballists of his day, and
mentioned feelingly the warm person.
ality which had endeared him to host
of friends.

NEW CHRISTMAS IDEA.
Brownies Included in First Presbyterian
Church Exercises

Christmas exercises were held at the
First Presbyterian church yesterday
AFTERNOON, when large number of the
scholars and their friends assembled to
receive the Christmas gifts. Superin-
tendent A. w. Dickson delivered an APP
propriate address, after which an en-
tertaining musical programme was rem
dered
In the distribution of gifts an inno-
walton was created. When the dona-
tions were about to be given Mr.. Dick
son raped at little house erected of
boxes of candy when twelve little
brownies" who We're presumed to
have been aroused out of their slum-
bers, came out, each drawing a wagon
of groceries and provisions. The little
vehicles We're drawn along the, aisles
and the packages handed to the re-
cipients.
A large quantity of packages contain
ing various articles We're also dis
tributed to the scholars. The arrange
ments were excellently carried out by a
committee presided over by Mrs
Charles Weston.
Conrad's orchestra discoursed splen-
did music during the exercises.
