Card from Mrs. Beckett.

Editor Scranton Tribune.
Sir: Please allow me space in your val
liable paper to express my opinion In re-
gard to an article which appeared In an
issue of your paper on the sth inst. stat
ing that C. f. Beckett, permanent man OF
Eagle Engine company, was suspended
for drunkenness. Now I know the time
he came home on Saturday, the time he
was supposed or reported to be intoxi-
Gated. i being his wife ought to know
the true state of effairs. i think ought
TO bo competent to judge OF the condition
he was in. There are men in higher pub
lie Offices who have their enemies and
suppose he has his, but those who re-
ported this falsehood about him had bet
ter keep quiet. But, there, Will not say
any more this time. They had better take
warning. Furthermore, will defy any
person TO say or prove that he has missed
one fire in his four years OF service even
when on his vacation he left his bed and
responded TO alarms of fire despite my
protests. Yours respectfully,
Mrs. c. +. Beckett,

serving his second term in the senate
having been elected to that body in
1885. While u pronounced bimetal-
list, he was a staunch supporter oi
the St. Louis ticket.
Ex-President Stevenson, the Demo.
cratic member of the the commission,
though not generally known as an ad-
vocate of bimetallsm, was a suppor-
ter of Bryan and the Chicago plat
form. He and Senator Wolcott, how
ever, are said to be in accord on the
financial question.
General Chas. S. Paine, who may be
termed the minority member, is a Re-
publican and was q Mckinley man.
He is one of the most prominent busi-
ness men of Massachusetts and is said
to be a student of the financial ques-
ton. While he is classed as a suppor-
ter of bimetallism, based on interna-
tional agreement, he is regarded as
allied with the sound money faction.
1t is not yet known when the CON-
missioners will meet and organize.
When an organization is effected, how
ever, it is believed that Senator VOL
colt will be made president. 1t is
authoritatively stated that the COM

May l, by which time the new
ambassadors will be at their posts and
render the special ENJOYS the assist
ance necessary to the elimination of
their mission.

REMARKABLE AND EXTREMELY
PRoBABLE.-The retirement of Evan
P. Howell, of The Constitution, COM
ing without word of warning, was
like thunder clap from a clear sky.
But time will show that there was a
meaning in it. The return of Hugh
Inman to Atlanta from New York,
the quarrel in The Constitution house
hold, the purchase of control by the
Inmans, all mean something, and we
don't mind predicting that it means
that The Constitution has been bought
by the money power, the gold stand
ard advocates, and while the change
from right to wrong will probably be
gradual, it will in time be complete.
Just keep your eye on The Constitu'
tion 1t was recognized as the most
powerful silver advocate in the coun-
try under Howell, and that is why
he was given 100000 for one-fourth
interest. If our view is correct, Clark
Howell will be forced out Of the edit
orship shortly, and by that time the
new association which the New York
Sun is arranging will be ready to sup
ply dispatches to another paper in At
lanta, and the force of The Evening
Constitution will get together with the
Howells and start a free silver paper
in Atlanta that the Inmans cannot
buy.-Spartanburg Herald.

lived in Charleston, and who knows
what he is about at all times, had said
that he would offer the state net
profit of $3.50, 900 per year for the dis
pensary business. Mr.. Mantoue was
seen about the matter recently and
said that he had made no formal prop
osition of this kind to the state board
of control, because he knew that the
board had no authority to consider
such proposition. Mr.. Mantoue says
that, without the slightest reflection
on the management of the dispensary,
he thinks that, with the experience of
those he would expect to associate
with him, he could make money out OF
the business and still pay the state $3.50
900 net. He says he has made such
a remark, and that at any time that
the state would entertain such prop
osition, be would be perfectly willing
to form the syndicate to take charge
of the business. Of course the under
standing would have to be that every
thing in the law, as it now stands, was
to be enforced to the letter, and
bond would be placed with the state
for the absolute observance of the law
as it now stands.

At no season of my career in
buying and selling merchandise,
have 1 been so thoroughly ION
my 1nettle'' as at the present sea-
son, and while competition is
sharp and the proprietors of all
Dry Goods concerns are on the
alert to put their wares forward,
1 feel that my establishment is
able to cope with the most gall
ing and thoroughgoing enter
prising competition.
My line Of Gentlemen's Cloth

And again, ladies, 1 want to
call your attention to my mag
nifcent line of Ladies' Under

to state that the garments in all

MONETARY COMMISSIONER APPOINTED.
Maybe 1t Means Business; Probably Only

Maybe 1t Means Business; Probably Only
Buscombe.
President Mckinley, on Mon
day night, announced the appoint
ment of Senator Edward o. Wolcott,
of Colorado, Hon. Chas. J. Paine, of
Boston, and ex-Vice President Adlai
E. Stevenson as commissioners to an
international monetary conference.
These appointments are made under
the act approved March 3 last, "for
the promotion of an international
agreement for bimetallism," and, by its
provisions, do not require confii nation
by the senate.
1t has been generally conceded that
Senator Wolcott would be made a
member of the commission. He has
been an active leader in the movement
for monetary agreement and known
as an advocate for free coinage. His
trip to Europe last winter was conced-
ed to be at least semi official as the
representative of the new administra-
ton. His tour extended over several
months and embraced the leading Eu-
ropean capitals. He had audiences
with the more noted tinanciers and
ministers and it is believed then laid
the foundation for the international
conference. Senator Wolcott is now

AIR SHIP STORIES.

Is It Real Wonder or Merely Big Yarns
From time to time, of late, different
big newspapers throughout the coun-
try have been publishing stories from
correspondents describing "airshlps''
alleged to have been seen floating over
different localities.
Some few months ago, the New
York Journal got up a big sensation
with story alleged to have been tel
egraphed from San Francisco, and to
the effect that an airship had made
several trips between that city and
Sacramento. The stories were told in
such details; along with the alleged
names of so many reputable citizens
who, it was claimed, had seen the
strange invention, that at last great
many people were inclined to believe
that the alleged aerial flyer was an &C
tual achievement. But suddenly the
San Francisco Examiner, under the
same ownership and the same general
management as the New York Jour-
nal, published number of kilograms
setting forth the fact that the stories
of The Journal were fakes pure and
simple, and the public was more mys-
tilted at this development than it was
even over the strange movements of
the alleged airship.
A few days ago, it was reported that
citizens of Wilmington, N. c., and
other neighboring towns, claim to have
seen an airship floating through the
sky, and the mania, or whatever it is,
has gotten closer home. The Colum-
bia State of last Monday had story
to the effect that an employe of that
Office, while perfectly sober, claims to
have seen an airship floating over the
city of Columbia on Sunday night ;
and further, that this employe actually
heard the voices of men in the over
sailing ship.
Another airship story is to be found
in the Chicago Record, of last Satur-
day. The paper contains dispatches
from numerous towns along the lakes,
claiming that dozens of citizens of each
town saw on Friday night a great air
ship floating overhead. Reports of
the same kind are also published from
various towns in Kansas and Iowa.
The alleged vesselis generally describ-
ed as consisting of an eliptical bag
125 or more feet in length with car
and steering machinery underneath.
Most of the stories agree in the de-
scriptions, and some 20 so far as to
claim that they saw and heard men
talking in the alleged vessel.
What it all means, it is rather diff
cult to arrive at. Whether some in
ventor has really at last succeeded in
solving the problem of aerial naviga-
tion, or whether centain correspon-
dents and editors have begun to see
ships floating in the air instead of the
regulation snakes and monkeys, or
whether it is just ordinary everyday
lying, must remain question of more
or less doubt, at least until there are
further developments.

Newspaperdom.
One of the many sharp thorns thrust
almost daily into the anatomy of the
publisher is the request for free adver-
tiSing from the man who gets his print
ing done at some small job office.
The Allentown (Pa.) Chronicle gives
voice to vigorous protest against this
yery common abuse, as follows:
Today a young man called at this
office with big pile of circulars on
his arm and requested US to publish
the contents of the circular in the
paper as a puff. The circular, which
was wretched specimen of the typo
graphical art, had been printed in one
of the amateur job Offices with which
this city is cursed, and which generally
consist of a rack of secondhand type
and dilapidated hand-press, presided
over by a genius who knows about as
much of job printing as the steward
of vessel knows about navigation.
A person, however, has perfect right
to have his job printing done where he
chooses, but for an Individual to call
at a newspaper Office which has job
printing department and calmly thrust
a circular printed in another establish
ment under the nose of the editor and
request him to publish the contents
free of charge is simply paralyzing.
Yet this is something which happens
nearly every day. No one thinks of
going to a store, buy a big bill of
goods, and then 60 to a rival establish
ment and request the proprietor to
send his delivery team to the place
where the goods had been purchased
and deliver them free of charge. Yet
the principle is the same. The worst
offenders in this respect are the nu-
merous church societies. The MAORI
ty of them have their job printing
done in amateur Offices, and then they
come around and want about SO
worth of free putting. And peculi-
ar thing about it is, that these persons
appear to be greatly amazed that the
editor should complain at such treat
ment. If only some persons would
get rid of the idea that paper is an
elemosynary institution, but one con-
Quoted on business principles, it would
save the managers an enormous strain
on their gray matter.

HOUSE Is IDLE.-Since the passage
of the Dingley tariff bill, the house of
representatives has had but little to
do. There are a large number of new
members who would be glad to get
certain bills through but since the
speaker refuses to appoint the usual
committees, no business can be trans
acted except by unanimous consent.
The members of the house, therefore,
are putting in most of their time either
at work or enjoying themselves as they
see fit. The senate is not disposed to
be in any especial hurry about pushing
the tariff bill, and although it is not
probable that much other legislation
will be completed during the present
extra session, it will be some time be-
fore the extra session will adjourn.
