Last evening, cool as it was, a youth
of about Is or 16 years created a little
excitement in the vicinity of Cedar ave-
nue. and Campbell street. 1t was not
quite dark and the street was thronged
with pedestrians, when suddenly the
lad appeared naked and ran up Cedar
avenue about a block and disappeared
through a house, only to reappear and
run about half a square. He did not
appear a third time. Where he came
from or who he was no one seemed
to know.

A GREAT REMEDY.
For Sufferers from piles.

DIR. Redmond, a specialist in the
study and treatment OF Piles and rectal
diseases, recently stated that the Pyra-
mid Pile Cure, the new discovery for
the cure of piles, was the most re-
markable remedy he had ever seen or
tried in one respect; and that was, the
instant relief experienced in all cases,
no matter how severe, from the mo-
ment the remedy was applied; this was
the more surprising to him, because
he had carefully analyzed the prepara-
tion and no trace of opium, cocaine OF
similar poison could be detected.
Physicians look with great favor
upon the Pyramid Pile Cure, because II
Is rapidly taking the place of surgical
operations and because IL is so simple
so easily applied and contains no min
eral or other poisons so commonly used
In pile cures
DIR. Esterbrook reports that the Py-
ramid Pile Cure not only cures the
various forms of Piles, but never fails
to give immediate relief on the first
application, no matter how severe the
pain or discomfort may be.
People who have suffered from piles
for years are often astonished at the
instant relief experienced from the frs
application, Another important ad
vantage is the fact that anyone car
use the remedy without detention from
business or interference with daily oc
| cupation. Sold by druggists at s.
cents per package.

cure of piles.

The Moosic Populars and the rep
resentative team of Minooka gave one
of the worst exhibitions of base ball
seen on the grounds of the latter this
season. Although playing semi-pro-
fessional in Batavia, New York since
the season opened, yesterdays con-
test did not give them a showing as
| fast amateurs, as the work of the
home team was sleepy. O'Neill and
Connors were the opposing pitchers
and both were very wild, but they
managed to keep the hits well scat
| tered. Shea was put in to relieve
| O'Neill in the seventh and the Moo
sizes managed to get few hits, assisted
by poor fielding and passed their op'
ponents. Connors is the star twirlei
of the Luzerne valley and his friends
| say he has received tempting offers
| from an eastern league team. Tn,
weather was very disagreeable. A
young man named Padden was select
ed to umpire; but his work was yellow
and off color. Score 13 to 3.

The erection OF a 80 foot flag pole and
the flying therefrom of a beautiful
silk flag was one of the incidents of
Saturdays celebration. The pole was
erected upon the lawn of John Hale
of South Main avenue. The under
lying purpose of Mr.. Hale's action was
to carry out a long cherished wish of
his son Theodore, who was killed about
a year ago while engaged at his duties
as outside foreman at the Sloan mines.
Theodore Hale had made nearly all
the preparations for the event, but was
prevented from carrying out his pat
riotic idea by his sudden death, SO
on Saturday as a sort of memoriam
the flag was flung to the breeze by
his father.
