Review Of the Work.

Saturday evening Rev. Hugh c. Nc
Dermott, A. NJ, of Kingston, Methodist
Episcopal church, was the preacher. He
lifted the minds of his hearers to lofty
heights of comfort and faith as he de-
ptcted in scholarly and glowing
thoughts the substantial grounds of
the Christian faith in the atonement.
Sunday.-The day was glorious in
its brightness. Several thousand people
came to the grounds. The preacher of
the morning was Rev. w. Treble. of
Wyoming. His theme was Lessons
from the Transit guration." Matt, xvii:
1-3 One: The hidden and final glory
Of Jesus revealed. Two: The story of
redeeming love. Three: We have in
Jesus Christ the union of all things and
He becomes the all in all. Fully two
thousand people listened to the dis
course.
Afternoon.-Rev. William G. Simpson,
of West Pittston, was the orator. The
sermon was founded on John. X. 10. and
Acts, 17-2S, THE Religious Life and In
carnation." A large conceurse of people
listened to the discourse. An altar SER
vice of much interest followed, con-

the sermons Of the morning and after
noon in calling the people to surrender
to and obey the call of Jesus. Text

MAY RUN INDEPENDENT.
MIR. Steele Dobs Up rs Candidate 10
Office Of County surveyor.

Mr.. Steele Bobs Up rs Candidate Tor
Offioe Of County surveyor.
III ia said that a well known young
engineer by the name of Steele Will run
for county surveyor on nomination pa.
pers. as an independent candiuate.
ia TO be hoped that before taxing OUT
;nis papers, MIR. Steele will see the ioiiy
of his course. and decide not to run.
He will have no earthly chance OF being
elected. and his candidacy will seriously
fmperil the chances of Mr.. Post. the
Republican nominee. This is a thihg
that cannot be done at present. When
every Republican county should work
for the success of the ticket which rep
resents his political principles.
MIR. Post, as the nominee OF the Re-
publican party for this office, Is justly
entitled to the vote and work of every
Republican in the county. and he
should have 1t. For the Republicans
to bring on a battle for even small
office, is to imperil the chances of sue
cess OF the entire ticket from judge
down. With hard. earnest work from
now until election, the Republicans can
elect their entire ticket. and 1t Is hoped
that Mr.. Steele's friends will be able
to persuade him that his duty Is not
to run as an independent candidate. but
to turn in and help elect Mr.. Post to the
position for which he was nominated.
and which he Is amply qualified to fill.
There Is no use denying that the Dem
ocratic ticket is strong one. and 1t
will take hard work to elect the straight
Republican ticket this fall. but If di-
rected right II can be done. No
chances should be taken for even the
smallest place on the ticket. and if from
now on the Republicans present an
unbroken front, the entire ticket can
be elected. The anti-convention bick-
erings and disputes should be passed
over and forgotten. and every Repub-
lican should work and vote FOR the sue
cess of his ticket from Judge to sur

On Saturday evening Joseph Tomp-

death on the Lehigh Valley road. He
was around town during the evening
and had been drinking SO much that
when ne entered the Eagle hotel with
some companions and ordered drinks
the bartender refused, telling him he
had had enough. Soon after he left
the hotel saying he was going to the
paper mill. where his nephew, Eugene
Hines. was at work. Lit Ia supposed
that In crossing the track he must have
fallen and lay there when passenger
train No. 3. due at Ills, came along
and struck him. His body was terribly
disflgured; the head and parts OF the
young men from Oregon, walking along
the track soon after the train passed,
found the remains of the poor fellow
and called for help. His nephew. Mr..
Hines, identified him at once, an am
bulance was summoned and the re-
mains taken to his home OH Exeter
street. In the absence Of the coroner.
Alderman English empanelled a jury
composed of Edward Small, foreman,
Edward Evans, Thomas Walsh, James

adjourned to meet in the alderman's
office at O'Clock Monday evening. Mr.
Tompkins was A years old and was

DR.. PIERCE'S
Golden Medical
DISCOVERY
Cures Ninety.eigif per cent. Of an
cases Of Consumption. In al Its
Earlier Stages.

Although by many believed to be incura-
bic, there is the evidence of hundreds of
living witnesses to the fact that, In all its
earlier stages, consumption is a curable
disease. Not every case, but a large per-
6entaee Of cases, and we believe, Jniiy 9S
per cent are cured by DR.. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery, even after the disease
has progressed so far as to induce repeated
bleedings from the lungs, severe lingering
cough with copious expectoration (includ-
ing tubercular iuatter), great loss of flesh
and extreme emaciation and weakness.
DO you doubt that hundreds Of such cases
reported to us as cured by Golden Med
ical Discovery were genuine cases of that
dread and fatal disease? You need not take
our word for it. They have, in nearly every
instance, been SO pronounced by the best
and most experienced home physicians,
who have no interest whatever in mis-
representing them, and who were often
strongly prejudiced and advised against
a trial of Golden Medical Discovery"
but who have been forced to confess that
it surpasses, in curative power over this
fatal malady, all other medicines with
which they are acquainted. Nasty cod
liver oil and its filthy "emulsions' and
mixtures, had been tried in nearly all these
cases and had either utterly failed to benc-
fit, or had only seemed to benefit little for
a short time. Extract of malt, whiskey,
and various preparations of the hypophos-
phites had also been faithfully tried in vain.
The photographs of large number of
those cured of consumption, bronchitis,
lingering coughs, asthma, chronic nasal
catarrh and kindred maladies, have been
skillfully reproduced in a book of 100
pages which will be mailed to you, on re.
ceipt of address and six cents in stamps,
