On what do Col. duPont's claim.
rest? On the ground that Mr.. Wat
son cannot fill two offices at the same
time. If he is Governor is he Senator /
His conduct proves that be thought he
had not the right to legislate as q
Senator since he failed to exercise that
privilege from the time he took the
oath of office as Governor until the
hour of the conspiracy to prevent the
election of United States Senator.
If he had that right it was his duty
to exercise it and he utterly failed in
the discharge of his duty to his con-
stituents for the period of one month
if the Democratic views is correct.
Which horn of the dilemma do YOU
choose
But the Democrats claim that he
must be Senator to hold the office of
acting Governor. Then who will be
Governor from the first Tuesday of
January 1897, when the term for which
he was elected Senator will expire, to
the third Tuesday of January of the
same year, when the Governor elected
in November 1896 shall be inaugurated? !?
Will the State be without a Governor
for that period of two weeks 1t GER
tainly will be, if 1t is necessary that
Mr.. Watson shall be Senator in order
to be acting Governor.
But Mr.. Watson gave up his pay as
Speaker ard Senator the day he took
the oath of Office as Governor and
began to draw pay as Governor. If
he has a right to exercise the privi-
leges of Senator he is entitled to the
emoluments of the Office and can draw
a double salary. That for thirty days
he not only neglected to act as Sena-
tor but actually failed to draw the
double salary, consenting to Speaker
pro tenn. Records having the extra
dollar day, which the Speaker re-
ceives, will be taken as evidence con-
elusive by the average politician that
Mr.. Watson did not appreciate and
claim his privileges. If Mr.. Records
is entitled to the pay as Speaker how
can Mr.. Watson be entitled to the
and exercise the duties, of
the office :? Here is an inconsistency
which demands an explanation.
The Democrats refer to the fact that
Governor Polk, who became Governor
by virtue of his being Speaker, re-
turned to the Senate after, the Governor |
elected by the people had taken upon |
himself the duties of the office, and
Mr.. Polk filled out the term as Sena-
Tor for which he was elected, but no.
where can they produce the least
evidence that Mr.. Polk assumed or
claimed the right to exercise the Office
If Senator at the time he was dis
charging the duties of chief executive.
ind on the contrary he showed by his
very act that he had not that right
md addressed message as Governor
% those who had been his colleagues.
The more the claims of Col. dupont
ire discussed the stronger becomes the
'0nviction that he is elected Senator. I
Judge William H. Armstrong, an ex-
from Pennsylvania, gave
n Thursdays Philadelphia Press an
review of this whole
.nestion, and he concluded "that Mr..
Watson had no right to vote in the
onvention and that Henry A DUPONT
vas duly elected"

WHO'S A LIAR.
Connecticut Man Says lie Wants to Start

Connecticut Man Says lie Wants to start
an Egg Factory Here.
An egg factory may be started in
Scranton. At least SO says a smooth
talking individual named Samuel b.
Hillman, who for two days has had his
abode at the Wyoming. In connection
with the art Of manufacturing eggs, 1t
may be considered quite coincidence
that Mr.. Hillman registers from Hart
ford and the state Of Connecticut, whose
Yankee population has earned a world
wide reputation for making every thing
from -arning needles to steam locomo-
tives.
If Mr.. Hillman is to be believed,
Scranton epicures can soon have their

eggs that are the product of the faith

BROUGHT HOME INSANE.

A Scrantonian Loses His Reason in
Missouri While on q Visit to Ills
Sister.
Jefferson M. Keller, a carpenter living
at 701 Quincy avenue, who went to
Chillicothe, Mo-, abou: six months ago
on a visit to his sister, was brought
home yesterday a hopeless maniac.
He was accompanied here by Sheriff
e. w. Norman, of Livingston county,
Mo. Sheriff Norman says that Keller
had an hallucination that an uncle had
died and left him half million dollars,
which he was preparing to collect. He
became worse and for his own safety
and that of the community his sister
last Saturday had him arrested and Mt
the direction Of the county court he
was examined. declared insane, and or
dered sent to his home in this city.
Keller was violent at times on the
road and for one portion of the journey
had to be chained to the seat Of the
car. He made several attempts to es-
cape. but was prevented by the vigil
ance Of his custodian. who was COM
PEELED to spend two days and two
nights without a wink Of sleep.
Poor Director Tropp had Drs. Gum
ster and Manley passed upon Keller's
insanity at the station house, and ac-
cepted him as a charge upon the Scran-
ton poor district. He will be sent to
the Hillside home today.
Keller has not been himself for many
years. At an encampment of the Thir.
teenth regiment ne was prostrated by
sun stroke and softening Of the brain
resulted. He Ii about IS years Of age
and married.

TWO VERY BIC OBSTACLES
Prevent Action on West Side Street
Improvements.
TRACTION COMPANY IN IT
Company Owns an Important strip OF
Land aud Proposes to Escape As.
sessmeut-west Siders Whit
CpOu the Mayor.

Mayor Connell was waited upon yes
terday by a committee OF the West
Side board of trade, consisting Of Hon.
John r.. Farr, Hon. ID. M. Jones. Dr..
j. ]. Carroll, City Engineer Joseph Phil
lips and A. NJ. Morse. who were ap-
pointed at Tuesday nights meeting to
further the movement to widen and
pave Robinson and Ninth streets.
1t was set forth at the consultation
that the great drawback to the pro-
posed Improvement Is the terms OF the
Scranton Traction company for the
trade of their strip Of land along the
side of Robinson street, now occupied
by their tracks. for the right of way
along the center Of the street. The
company proposes to escape being as
sessed for paving between their tracks
and also for paving the portion Of
the street owned by them, and to do
this they prescribe in their terms that
the deed of transfer shall be held by
some third party until such time as the
paving Is under way.
An Important Point.
AS the properties on the southesterly
side of the street do not abut on the
street, but on the Traction company's
property. there is a question as to who
will be held liable for the cost of paw
ing that side of the street, includ-
ing the street car strip. There Is one
thing quite certain the committee feels,
and that is the property holders will
not be willing to pave unless the Trac-
tion company pays its share.
Mayor Connell promised the commit
tee that he and City Solicitor Torrey
would consult with the Traction COM
pany- officials and after getting their
side Of the story would endeavor to
bring about a compromise.
AS to the land necessary for WIDEN
ing Robinson and Ninth streets Mayor
Connell said he would have the city
solicitor take steps to have 1t con-
demned, inasmuch as no amicable
agreement could be arrived at owing
to the value which the property owners
In question place on their land.

EPHPHATHA GUILD SERVICES.
They VIII Be Held In st. Lukc's Church
This Evening the Penny Club
and tho Child Arc

This Evcning-What the Penny Club
and the Guild Arc.
Rev. ]. NJ. Koehler, the missionary in
charge of the services for deaf-mutes
in the diocese Of Central Pennsylvania,
will Ofiiciate at st. Luke's church this
evening at 7.45. The Ephphatha Guild,
In connection with st. Luke's church,
takes its name from the Greek word
"Ephphatha"-"Be opened"-used by
the Savior in healing deaf mute. It
numbers between fifty and sixty of the
mutes In this city. In connection with
1t Is Penny club, under the charge
of Mrs. H. H. Coston. the "society di-
rectress" Of the guild. It is this club
which held a fair last winter and has
taken other means to help the guild
provide for the travelling expenses Of
Rev. Mr.. Koehler.
BY some Transformation this Penny
club has been termed in the papers
first, a Mute society" and then ''the
Mite society of st. Luke's church."
which is entirely misleading. There is
no such society as that SO curiously
evolved by mistaken meaning. All
moneys raised by the Ephphatha guild
are for Rev. Mr.. Koehler or for the So
cial purposes of the deaf mutes. None
of them go in any way to st. Luke's
church, statement necessary to cor
rect a misunderstanding. The enter
tainments of the guild and its affiliat-
ed Penny club of young people appeal
to all friends Of the deaf mutes in
Scranton, not to any limited circle.

THE WORLD OF SPORT

Anson has made but two errors in 3S games In the 56 games in which he has played he has failed in but eight to bat safely-a showing few batsmen can make. He has made 13 doubles and three triples.
 Ewing suggests good scheme for the selection of an umpire when the regular man does not show up Instead of having two players from the two teams oficiate, which often results in trouble, Buck would have one of the home players act as umpire, the man to be selected by the cap- tain of the visiting team.
 June 26, inclusive, Fuller of New Yofk had made one hit in nine games and Staf- ford had not made hit in five games run ming.
 An intimate friend of ex-Manager Buck enberger is authority for the statement that Breitenstein will be sold by the St Louis club before the season is over. Bucken- berger who is in Pittsburg, has a letter under date of June 10 from Won der Ahe, .rebuking him for stating in an interview in the east that Breitenstein was not for sale at any price. The letter reads: ''l will take 5000 for him now and SIC, ,OOO or a little less after the next eastern trip. and hire lot of young fellows to fill the team." Buckenberger was, it is said, SC emphatic in his protest that Von der Ahe demanded his resignation.
 Anson made his first home run of the season in the afternoon game of Thursday. It must have been terrific drive, for An. son is not sprinter by any means.
 The batting honors on the Fourth went to Everett of the Chicagos, who made seven hits. including two home runs, and accepted 10 chances without an error.

THAT TORN MONEY.
1t Is Thought Chambers Scattered It O
 the Shore Before His Suicide.

1t Is Thought Chambers Scattered It on
 the Shore Before His Suicide.
 CHICAGO, July 6.-The police believe now that the mystery surrounding the S6, 900 worth of torn money found on the lake shore between Twenty-sccond and Twenty sixth streets week ago is solved. They believe that the money was torn up by John Chambers of Irvington, N. Y, and that his body is now under the waves of Lake Michigan.
 Chambers was about 2S years of age, and is said to belong to an excellent fam lily in COvingtOn. Some time ago he left homo with about $S, 1000 in his possession and in company with a young woman.
 About a month ago he was seen in Seattle, Wash, by William F. Trimble a fellow townsman. Chambers told Trimble that he had been to Sitka, Alaska, and that all of his money was gone excepting $6,00 The young woman and he had parted company, and Chambers, according to his own statement, was bound for the east, probably Chicago.
 Trimble returned to Covington and made report to the family of Chambers. While he was in Covington the story of the torn money and of the board which was found on the shore bearing the words, II am tired of life.-John Chambers, D was published. Trimble was at once urged to return to Chicago to make further in- quirics regarding the missing man, and neither he nor the police havc now any doubt that Chambers has killed himself.
