There is also a great deal Of remons-
trance concerning the order that men

| ing camp shall be noted as absent" at
inspection. Heretofore such dis
charged men, whose enlistments had
| expired. Were reported present" The
| order was not received in the Third
brigade until twenty-nine days before
| camp, which gave the captain no OPP
portunity to enlist men to fill the rolls,
as an enlistment dated within thirty
days Of camp does not count in COM
pany attendance. The result is that
the reduced percentage of attendance
will severely affect the regimental rat
ings.
Early this morning, before mess, Gov

He walked directly to General Gobin's

"Humph, yes: ] am the person you

plants Of Different Kind.

One Of the unpleasant tasks that falls
to Mayor Bailey's lot is listening to
complaints Of the numberless persons
who believe the chief executive of q
great city like Scranton should be able
to suggest a proper remedy for every i'll
they suffer.
Yesterday afternoon the mayor had
just dismissed candidate for police
force honors and coming out into the
large reception room picked up hand
full of Private Secretary Beamish's ''re-
form" stationery and was industriously
at work agitating the atmosphere with
the improvised fan when an excited
man who had entered the reception
room by the corridor door cried out:
rs the mayor in?"
Private Secretary Beamish was re-
peating for the benefit of the mayor
some choice sentences from his Grafton
before the Bryan and Sewall club of
Dunmore the night previous and he
liked not the interruption. The visitor
ignored the likes or dislikes of the p. s.
and agan inquired If the mayor was in.
He was and inquired anXiouslySas to the
melting cause Of his visitors high tenn
perature.
The caller was 50 excited that he
at length made the mayor under
stand that he resides ON the West Side
and that his neighbor was dumping
ashes in an alley between their proper
ties. He had chased the ash bumper
away and then betook himself to the
City Hall for police protection and au-
thority to prevent the further ornamen-
tation Of the alley.
He was advised to lay his case before
the street commissioner.
Mr. Kinsley could not be found.
HE WANTED TO SLEEP.
Another man with a grievance who
called at the city hall yesterday wanted
planning mill suppressed. His employ
ment is such that he works nights and
is compelled to rest during the day but
his sleep Is disturbed ever and anon
and sometimes oftener by the far from
soothing sounds that are strained
through the open windows and doors
of wood working factory. This annoy
ing noise the complaining citizen firmly
maintained made the mill public nuis-

But we can't suppress it," objected
the mayor. This case does not come

plainant and his face became white
and livid by turns; well If that's your
opinion I'm glad your not sanitary Of
fcer Just come down and try to sleep
in the neighborhood some day and
you'll find out If it's nuisance" Hav-
ing thus delivered himself he departed
with his faith in the powers of law and
equity visibly shaken.
Still another complaint came from a
man on the South Side who objects to
the small boy being allowed to play
ball near his home. The mayor did not
feel equal to the task of enjoining the
youth Of the city from playing the

On all the lines of the Traction COM
pany yesterday fewer cars We're run
on account of repairs on one of the
large dynamos at the plant on the
Providence road.
When the machine broke down a
month ago, one of the disc plates was
cracked and a band was put around
II until q new one could be got. 1t was
the work of replacing the broken plate
that caused the curtailing of the SER
vice, as the power furnished was not
sufficient to propel all the cars. Not
more than half the usual number were
in operation. The repairs were finished
last night and everything will go along
as usual today.

OF ANOTHER KIND.
There are other complaints laid before
the mayor that tell of woe and heart
breaking sorrow.
A woman who resides on Franklin
avenue wrote TO his honor the other day
and asked him to wipe out the gambling
places of the city. Her husband earns
good wages, but has q mania for the
gambling table anj il is no unusual
thing for him to lose at cards every
cent Of the money that should 30 to
support her and the children. The
anxious wife fears that their little
home will soon pass into other hands
unless her husband IS cured of his de-
sire to gamble. In her letter the wo-
man specified some of the places her
husband frequents and urges the mayor
to move against them.
Another heart-broken wife and moth
er complains about certair) speak -easies
on the South Side which she alleges
are making mental, moral. physical and
financial wrecks of her husband and
son. She attributes the death of an
other son directly to one of the unli-
censed drinking places that she men,
tions in her letter.
