"Fair Play" not content with abus-
ing the correspondent Of The Tribune
and the supporters Of good government,
last night had the monumental cheek
to deny a statement made by the cOrre7
spondent Of the Leader Of Carbonate.
1t Is a coward that won't fight when
you get him cornered, and Fair Play
made a good fight. but like all of his
statements was false. The gang
think that they can mislead the vot-
ers by denying facts which are not
pleasant for them to hear. They know
that they have cheated Mr. Esmay out
OF being county committeeman for the
Second ward, and when told SO make
great haste to divert the facts which
can be proved. Mr.. Esmay told the
correspondent that he saw c. 8. Alex
ander today. who was Judge at the last
caucus. when Mr. Esmay was elected
county committeeman, and that he sent
his credentials to Montrose. Whose
statements are false? Fair Play"
have you got the manhood to own up
that yours were. and mat you knew II
at the time?
The indications are that Frank Hol.
lenback, Lew Jones, DR.. Blakeslee and
BENJAMIN Maxey will be commissioned
by large majority to carry the YER
dict OF this borough to Montrose and
thereby repudiate the tactics used by
the Quay supporters to control the elec.
ton machinery here and uphold Gov.
ernor Hastings in his effort to secure
representative government for tht

performance gave great credit to those
who participated.
Although the weather was threaten
ing. It did not keep . large number
Of people from attending. Everybody
had a good time and the way In which
each piece was received showed that
the boys were great favorltes.
The performance went OF without
hitch, II being made more amusing by
the impromptu lines which were some
times added. The dancing by Vail and
Morgan was excellent and the farce
well merited the applause which 1t re-
ceived. The banjo and mandolin spe-
cialt.es by Katz and Freeman were one
Of the best on the programme. They
were encored time and again. But 20
give a sketch OF all the pieces would be
too long a task. All were good and the
boys deserve great credit for the Gre
ditable mannec In which they gave
them.
Several busloads Of young people
went from this city and came back In

RHEUMATISM
Have You Got It?...If You
Have, Nov Is the Time
to Be Cured.

There are very few people Of middle or
advanced age that have not had more or
less experience with rheumatic pains. and
those who have not experienced those
pains can be thankful that they have been
spared from the suffering Of one Of :he
greatest torments Of which flesh Is heir to.
What ts the cause Of rheumatism Is a
question frequently asked. A volume
could be written on rheumatism and Its
causes. This term Is applied to all in
fiammatory affections of the flbrous. mus
cular and serous tissues. which are not
clearly referable to injury. The cause
may be said to be exposure to cold and
wet. sudden chills. residence In cold. damp
and variable climates Is a common cause
I.act.c acid In the blood is supposed to be
one Of the chief causes. A great deal has
been writtens on this subject-the cause
OF rheumatism. A joint or muscular It's
sue that has been spraLned Is more liable
to be the locality of an attack. The
shoulders, wrists. knees. ankles and I'm
gers are the Joints generally attacked by
this complaint: also the muscles, and at
times is accompanied by a low grade Of
fever. but let the complaint be seated
where 1t will. the patient is a great suf-
ferer, and the question arises where and
how to get cured of this terrible COM
plant. DIR. f. B.. Smith and stan have
made the treatment of rheumatism one
Of their spec.alties for years and have
met with wonderful success. Their treat
ment OF this disease by magnetism has
brought permanent cure to hundreds of
sufferers who bless the day they went 10
DR.. Smith and stan for treatment. II
you or any of your friends are suffering
from this complaint do not wait until the
| winter rains and winds have caused your
pains to be SO severe that you cannot leave
your home, but go at once. see those doc
| tors, place yourself under their care and
be cured. Consultation free from . to
daily except Sundays. Tuesdays and Fri.
days from 9 a. m. to 8 p. m.

DEAD IN THE WOODS.
The Body Of John Ssran. al Italian. Dis
covered Yesterday Afternoon.

SVNSIOo uSStOIooV Att0UuOOu.
Yesterday afternoon the report was
spread around town that a man had
been murdered and that his body was
lying in the woods near the Northwest
breaker. Upon investigation the re-
port was found true and the body
brought to this city.
A party Of miners were on their way
home from work about o'clock and
1t wa, they who discovered the body.
1t was identified as that Of John Suran,
an italian laborer. Suran was last seen
alive Thursday about o'clock, and
how he came to his death is a mys-
terry which will probably never be
solved.
There are no marks Of any kind on
the body to indicate foul play and this
also does away with the theory Of sui
eide.
Suran was we'll and hearty when last
seen and seemed in the best Of spirits.
That he had any enemy who might
have murdered him was improbable,
as he was on the best Of terms with all.
and he had no money for which the
deed could have been done. It Is
thought that he went for a walk and
then lay down in the woods to rest. He
must have fallen asleep and never
woke up again.
Coroner Kelley was summoned from
Scranton and he arrived last evening,
but too late to hold and inquest. It
will be held this morning. however.
