Director Gibbons presided at yester-

The Scranton poor directors had for
some time been cndcaVOring to get
three EGys of this district admitted to

appeared t. be disrcgardcd by the man
agemcnt of the home. Very curt let

ters of Secretary LynOtt. This became
50 twcsome that the board concluded
to enter complaint. Yesterday the
secretary read letter from Resident
Physician Martin Barr. of the Elwyn

would be received in exchange
Mr.. Shotten moved that the three
boys, John Atkinson, David Thomas,
and Albert Heine, be sent to the Elwyn
Home and the superintendent Of the
Hillside Home De authorized to take
the boys to Elwyn and return with the
three best boys he can select from the
number of hopeless cases at Elwyn.
This home, it is said, does much good
for that class of children that are about
half wittcd, but many children are sent
there who are absolutely idiOtic. The
Scranton poor district will support

WE'RE Right IN THE push" "

When the advertising atmosphere is SO
heavily charged with exaggeration it
is well to remember who the honest
advertisers are. Windy assertions about
GREAT reductions advertising goods
at impossible prices, find no lodging
place in the minds Of intelligent people.
Dull trade throughout the legitimate
business season may make necessary,
wild statements from some Clothiers TO
attract trade, but the sChemers will
have to scheme harder and find new
DISCUSSES for their lame excuses before
they can stop the people from coming
to this store for honest values. The
triumph of this store is the triumph of
intelligence, and you have made it so.

After Aid from the Estate.


Mr.. Lynott reported also for the spe
cial committee on legislation. When
the subcommittee on appropriatnos
was here n week ago from the state leg
islaturc at Harrisburg, the special
committee met the subcommittee at
the Terrace hotel. The outcome Of it
was that the special committee of The
board decided to draught two bills and
send them to the Lackawanna dclega-
ton. one Of the bills proposed to place
the Hillside Home on the same plane
as state hospitals, so that it might
come under the million-dollar appro-
priation made bi-ennially by the state
The other bill recommended a specific
appropriation from the state for the
care of the INDECENT insane of this dis
trict. Both bills were mailed to Rep
resentative Farr.
Attorney Scragg was present to give
his opinion in the case of Sarah Jane
Bailey, who is now in the insane de-
partment of the Hillside Home. She is
over 60 years Of age is very wealthy,
and was found wandering aimlessly on
the streets of this city. The police
picked her up, and Mayor Connell sent
word to Director Tropp, who had two
physicians examine her. They declared
her insane and she was committed to
the home. Her husband lives in Brad
ford county. but she does not stay with
him. She has son So years old. \
small fortune has been spent in trying
to have her adjudged insane SO that
she may be properly taken care of and
not allowed to roam around at will.
But she is so strategic and laVishes her
money in opposing all efforts to make
a legal lunatic of her that she has thus
far been able to Illustrate all the plans
of her family. At the suggestion of
Attorney Scragg, Mrs. Bailey's son will
be required to indemnify the board for
her keeping if she is allowed to re-
main at the Hillside Home, because she
is not a charge on the Scranton poor
district, as her estate is with her hus-
band in Bradford county.
Invitation to- the Public.
Mr.. Gibbons advised that general
invitation be sent to the taxpayers of
the district to visit the buildings at
the home and see for themselves what
lie money. About 100000 worth of i'm
provements have recently been made
there. Secretary Lynott will notify the
directors of the Archibald poor district
to remove Maggie Murphy, who is con-
fined at the Hillside Home. She is not
a charge on this district. The usual
number of relief applications Were
granted.
Superintendent Becmer's report of
the farm and almshouse set forth that
the number remaining in the latter
place at the end of February was
l72. During the month of February siN-
teen were admitted; eleven were dis
charged, and one died.
