He Was o. X.

DR.. E. Benjamin Andrews, president OF
Brown university, a delegate to the Brus-
sells monetary conference and we'll known
writer on social, economic and religious
subjects, has never been accused of being a
dandy, and he delights in doing just such
things as is told herewith. The home
delegation to the big Baptist anniversaries
at Saratoga have got back, and they know
something funny. This is what it is:
AS the Baptist train en- route swung by
a little station up in New York state the
eagle eyed operator discovered the figure OF
a mar slowed away on the rear platform,
hat pulled down over his eyes, safe from
view and everything else except the curl
ing dust and flying pebbles. So the oper-
atOr wired ahead to the next station as
follows: Look out for tramp on No. So,
rear platform. Jones'" The operator at
the next station promptly pulled up the
train, and the conductor went to the rear
to investigate. There was the mana big,
broad shOuldered fellow, his hat pulled
down over his eyes, covered with dust, and
so generally rough and tough looking that
the conductor didn't banker after a tackle.
Sc he sent for the brakeman. What fol
lowed is indicated by the dispatch which
Operator Jones, at the back station, re
ceived a few minutes after from his broth
er operator. Here it is:
Tramp all right. Going to the Baptist
convention with a ticket. Takes his water
straight and is president of Brown uni
versity. "-PrOvidence News.

A Genius For Snoring,

Lord Aberdeen tells the following story
of himself: He left London at midnight in
a sleeping car for the north. In the morn
ing when he was awakened he saw a
stranger opposite him.
Excuse me" said the stranger. May
l ask if you are rich?'
Somewhat surprised his lordship replied
that he was tolCrably well to do.
May l ask" continued the stranger,
how rich you are"
We'll, if it will do you any good to
know" was the reply, Il suppose L have
several HUNDRED thousand pounds"
well, " e OF the stranger, if 1 were
as rich as you and snOred as loud as you,
l should take a whole car, 50 as not to
interrupt the sleep Of others. New York
Tribune.

One Advantace of the system.

There is an itinerant printer in the Cats
kill region who carries a hand press and
bag of type around with him and does
small jobs for the country folks. The
type is all mixed in the bag, and when he
is setting a job the process is rather a te-
dious one. \ member of the craft, observ-
ing him at work one day, said:
Don't % find it slow work setting
from type carried around in that way"
Wees, he drawled, lit is, 1 admit,
rather slow work setting, but, by Jove,
you should see me distribute!''-New

An Important Office.

The experience Of Luzerne county
with the new law creating in certain
counties the Office Of county controller
already shows a material saving 10 the
public. IL Is estimated, we believe,
that the new Office, including its s.. SOC
salary, clerk hire, stationery and Incl
dentals, will cost something like S., ,0OO
year. More than that amount has
been saved to the Luzsrne couutytrOas =
ury in the first month Of Controller
Reese's term. For January, 1893, the
rounty's expenses were 81 900. For
January, 1894, they were 50, 900. and the
falling off was due. not to decrease
in the necessary business OF county ad-
ministration, but TO a vigorous aud
impartial blue-penciling Of illegal and
exorbitant charges, and 10 a general
overhanlinG Of the county finances.
For February the saving is not nearly
30 great, partly because of extra litiga
ton waged against the county by vic
tins Of the controllers economical
snieksrsnee during the preceding
month, and partly because many abuses
which had existed in January and goi
properly dressed down. did not dare
show their heads again
But it is clearly evident from the
general howl which has gone up from
the old ringsters in Luzsrne that the
rontrollership experiment Is progress
Aug satisfactorily to the people. II was
not to be expected that the cutting of
Vt illegal revenues and the scaling of
The Scranton tribune. [volume] (Scranton, Pa.) 1891-1910, 1894-03-31

While there Is no thought OF doing
otherwise, it may not be amiss to tell
Scranton's new councilmen that they
will be expected to re-elect City Clerk
Martin Lavelle by acclamatlon. This
expectation is foun led on years OF
faithful. diligent aud conscientious
service which have made Mr.. Levells
as much part Of the city OF Scranton
as the city hall is part Of 1t. 1t Is
founded on familiarity with munici-
pal affairs which. II one man can ever
be truly said to be indispensable. points
to Mr.. Lavelle as that man. 1t is
founded upon modesty which has
never obtruded itself; upon a couscien-
tiou' application to duty which has
never shirksd any labors calculated to
promote the city's interests. and upon
quiet strength Of personal manliness
which has made Mr.. Lavelle every.
body's friend We just simply couldn't
spare him from the city clerkship, aud
that's all there is about 1t.
But the duty of the incoming coun-
Gil will not end with the mere rs.elec-
tion of an official that they would havs
to re-plsct anyhow The measure Of
tho city's obligations to Mr.. Lavslls is
broader and deeper than thiS Time

Iu "a Yankee in Gray" the open

this issue of THE TRIBUNE, one of the
survivors of this crucial struggle for
American freedom has constructed a
narrative that has all thu accuracy of
