reelected, and at the close of his sec
missioners' Office, and withdrew from
the activities of councilmanic life; but
he by no means gave up his aspirations
in the political arena.
AS a councilman he stood up with the
best in his advocacy of the interests of
the city and his constituents. While
always a consistent and unswerving
Republican, his, policy was marked with
liberality. On the floor of the council
chamber he was quick in debate, and
eloquent when the occasion required it.
The four years that he served well
equipped him for the legislative assem-
bly,
He was born in Pittston on Sept. s.,
1869. while his parents We're residing
there temporarily. They moved back to
Scranton when he was one month old,
his father, DR.. j. w. Robathan, having
been for several years before and after
that a prominent physician of the West
Side.
When Mr.. Robathan was eleven years
old his father died and year later his
mother passed to her reward. Up to
this time he had been attending the
public school, but these adverse circum-
stances compelled him to go to work
for a living. For eleven years he was
in the employ of the Delaware. Lacka-
wanna and Western 3mpany as weigh
master. Despite the fact that he has
not had a college education, Mr.. Roba-
than Is not debarred from assuming any
trust which requires ability, for he has
acquired a broad education of affairs
and is possessed of sound common sense
and ildGment.

AFTER THE SPEAK-EASIES
Ii quOr Leaguers Warn the Brewers Not
to Sell to Unlicensed Dealers.
End Is Not Yet.

Now the regularly licensed liquor
dealers through their Retail Liquor
league are otter the speak easies" on
a new tack. The county league has sent
notices 30 the different brewers warm
ing them against selling their beer and
other liquors to unlicensed venders. The
Retail league met yesterday afternoon
at the Imperial hotel on Penn avenue,
but nothing further was done on the
speak easy" subject. There were
about forty representatives present.
President Thomas Richards presided.
The secretary reported that three of
the brewers had responded to the warn
ing notices The rest are evidently
sparring for time and the league gave
them until next Friday afternoon when
another meeting will be held. If an
answer is not .hen received the retail
men will act.

MIR. WATRES RETURNS.
Has Been on an European Trip.-.A
Passenger on the Record.
Breaking St. Louis.

Ex-Lieutenant Governor l.. A. Wat
res, looking brown, hale and physically
much benefited by his European trip,
begun in June, returned to Scranton on
last evenings S.45 Lackawanna train
from New York. He rode in a cab to
the Hotel Jermyn, where he was inter-
viewed by a Tribune reporter. Mr..
Watres came home alone, having left
Mrs. Watres and their three boys, Har
old, Lawrence and Reyburn, and Miss
Hawley, of Scranton, and Miss Schelker,
of Elgin, ILL.,, who accompanied them,
in Switzerland.
The ex-lieutenant governor is Ameri-
can in all things and that accounts for
his arrival in Scranton nearly a day
ahead of time. He was passenger on
the American liner st. Louis, which
smashed an ocean record on her run
from Southampton. The vessel lowered
the transatlantic record by three hours.
Speaking of his tour. Mr.. Watres said:
II am so impressed with this terrific
heat that it is hard for me to think or
talk about anything else. IT'S hot in
Scranton, know. but in New York 1t
Is simply unbearable. Yes, l am feel
ing well and have been greatly benefited
by the trip. Mrs. Watres and the boys
will remain until next spring in Swift
zerland. The latter will study there
