The report was put in circulation
yesterday by opponents of Clarence e.
Pryor that he had withdrawn from the
contest for the Republican nomination
for sheriff. The report had absolutely
no foundation and was simply a cam
paign canard, circulated for pur-
pose. Mr.. Pryor's friends laugh at
the idea of his withdrawing at a time
when they believe he has the fight al
ready won. No doubt there will be
more such stories today but they can
one and all be secuted as mere inven-
tions.
Today's primaries promise to be the
warmest that Lackawanna Republ-
cans have engaged in for many years.
There are 271 delegates to be chosen
and at rough estimate there are at
least eight hundred candidates for
these positions In some districts
there are as high as eight sets of dele
gates and in scarcely any district is
there less than three.
The principal fight is on the shrieval-
ty, for which there are four prominent
candidates: Clarence f. Pryor, Frank
M. Spencer, George Okell and Wade M.
Finn. For treasurer w. s. Langstaff
and James Young are the contestants.
John r. Jones, George M. Watson and
J. Elliott Ross are the seekers after the
nomination for district attorney.
For prothonotary there are only two
pronounced candidates, John Copeland,
of Carbondale, and Griffith Davis.
Thomas p. Daniels is unopposed for
clerk of the courts and will doubtless
be chosen by acclamation. Charles
Heuster, G. w. Westpfahl and Edward
F. Wenzel are looking for the recorder
berth. For register w. K. Beck, of
Moscow, and James M. Atherton are
the most prominent candidates. Can
didates for jury commissioner are
legion.
The convention will open in the court
house Tuesday morning at 10 o'clock.
The delegates will have seats reserved
for them within the bar enclosure and
will be admitted by ticket from the
rear corridor through the entrances to
the right and left of the bench. Spec
tators will be admitted from the main
corridor and will be denied entrance
within the bar enclosure.
County Chairman John II. Thomas
yesterday engaged two parlors on the
second floor of the Westminster for
county committee headquarters. Dele
gates are to report there as early as
possible Tuesday morning to be enrolled
and to secure tickets of admission to
the space reserved for delegates in the
court room.
1t is very essential, Mr.. Thomas says,
that delegates should enroll and secure
tickets before going to the court house,
for the sake of expediency and to avoid
confusion.

The Kimball Piano to BE Used al
The FrOthingham Hereafter.

The manager of the Lyceum theatre
has purchased a large Kimball piano
in oak for exclusive use in the orchestra.
One of same make has been in use in
Academy of Music here for three years,
giving perfect satisfaction. One in new
Nay Aug Engine rooms.
While not so we'll known here, nearly
400 have been sold in Wilkes-Barre and
vicinity. These sales have been made
to such places as Wyoming seminary,
Kingston; Ashley Presbyterian church
Grand Opera House, Freeland, Pa. /;
Grand Opera House, Wilkes Barre; five
in the Hanover township schools, near
Wilkes Barre, and one for the new Mes
bitt theatre, Wilkes-Barre.
The Kimball piano received the only

For Jury Commissioned.

Charles Simrell, of the Twentieth
ward, candidate for jury commissioner,
is a lifelong Republican and a party
worker of the first rank. Born north
of the mountain he moved to Scranton
twenty-six years ago and has been a
resident of the Twentieth ward ever
since. He is loved and respected by
every voter in the ward, and his elec-
tion to the office Of register of voters
in the strongest Democratic district in
the city (Frst district, Twentieth
wardD proves his great strength. The
Twentieth ward has never had a Re-
publican candidate for county office,
and the great increase in the Republi-
can vote in the Twentieth ward is
largely due to the hard work of Mr..
Simrell. ~

SCRANTON'S LABOR DAY.
There Will Be Big Celebration Monday.
Monster Afternoon Parade and a
Picnic al Laurel Hill.

The Labor Day celebration in Scran-
ton next Monday promises to be one
of the most creditable demonstrations
of the kind ever held in this city. Every
arrangement is now complete, SO far
as the general committee is concerned.
The parade will start at 1.30 o'clock
and will be participated in by about
sixty union organizations and maybe
1900 marchers. The line of march will
be: Linden to Wyoming, to Spruce, to
Franklin, to Lackawanna, to bridge,
countermarching to Washington, to
Pine to Quincy, to Laurel Hill park
and disperse. Prizes will be given to
the organizations having, first, largest
number in line; second, best appear
ance; third, oldest; fourth, youngest.
At Laurel Hill park a picnic will be
held in the afternoon, at which ad-
dresses will be delivered by John A
Hart, j. w. Plasterer, T. ]. Fox and
others. The picnic will be continued
until the evening.
President Flaherty, president of the
Central Labor union, who is one Of the
most active in the work of preparation,
states that the merchants of the city
have contributed generously to the ex-
penses of the celebration.
Laurel Hill park has been placed in
excellent shape for the picnic and every
assurance of the success of the affair
is given. Many of the mills, mines,
business houses and workshops will be
closed. Several Of the committees met
last night.
At the committee meeting held last
evening the following names were sub
mitted and agreed upon as the judges
to award the prizes: Arthur Kelly, tai
lors; George Dorsey, bricklayers; Ed.
Shopland, carpenters; James Dona-
hue, plumbers; NJ. d. Flaherty, typo
graphical. The parade will be reviewed
at the Moses Taylor hospital, and the
winners of the prizes will be announc-
ed at Laurel Hill park.

kindergarten and Foundational
CIasses.

To say, as many do, that anyone is
good enough to teach a beginner in the
difficult art of piano playing is a most
serious error. The teacher of the Kin
dergarten and Foundational classes in
piano in the Scranton Conservatory of
Music is Miss S. Louise Hardenbergh,
a well-known musician and teacher
who has especially prepared herself for
this Special Preparatory Work accord
ing to the most modern methods. In
addition to the regular lessons in piano,
students receive free admission to
classes in Musical Dictation and Ele-
mentary Harmony. Sight Singing, Lee
lures on Musical History and Analysis,
and all musical exercises of the insti-
tuition. The Fall Term begins next
Wednesday. The director, Prof. j.
Alfred Pennington, may be consulted
daily at the Conservatory Office Adams
avenue and Linden street, with regard
to kindergarten, Foundational. and
advanced classes in piano and all other
departments of the institution. -

AN IMpOSTER ARRESTED.
Halls from Scranton and Collected
Money from Catholic Clergymen.

"outy ttOu NHtuVtfc ,tctSN"cns
Says the Wilkes Barre Times of last
evening: A man who gave his name
as John Jordan and also as Michael
Larkin was arrested at Ashley today
charged with securing money from
Catholic people and clergy In this vicin-
ity on false pretensc. The man Is
thought to be a resident of Scranton
and 1t is alleged he collected con-
siderable sum of money from Catholic
priests by telling he was engaged in
collecting money for a worthy en-
terprise. 1t is also alleged he secured
money from many patriotic Irishmen
by stating he was a son of promin-
ent Irish patriot.
Jordan or Larkin was at the resi-
dence Of Father German at Ashley to-
day and those who believed him to be
an impostcr went at once to Squire Fem
ner and bad him arrested. The man
was given a hearing and in default of
$500 bail was committed to jail.

to provide against the irritation caused
by pollen and dust. There are many

malignant poison. The triangle at the

this dangerous growth. 1t is a task

Things Good to Eat.

Instead of making noodles" or
dumplings with the stewed chicken
these hot days, thicken the broth I'M
til it is of the consistency of rich
cream. Split few stale biscuit, place
them in the tureen and pour the
broth over them, cover and serve.
They are as good as the average
dumping and more easily prepared.
If the biscuit are not to be had, toast
a few slices of bread, cut into small
squares, place the chicken in the cen
ter of the platter, arrange the toast
around it, and cover with the hot
broth. 1t is fine.
''Just the cutest'' sandwiches are
made of tiny baking powder biscuit
not much larger than a silver dollar
When cold, carefully break them in
two, butter and fill with chopped
meats, salad or any of the many
things now used in sandwich making.
Fried Corn.-With a sharp knife
split each row Of kernels, then slice
from the cob, scraping it with back of
knife to secure the germ which is the
sweetest part. Have hot in frying
pan two tablespoons of butter. Put
in the corn, salt and pepper it, add
little sugar and stir almost constantly
for five minutes to prevent scorching.
Add half cup of boiling water, cover
and cook until water evaporates, be-
ing careful that it does not scorch.
Turn until delicately Drowned, and
serve at once. 1t is delicious. Field
corn may be made as palatable as
sweet corn by using more sugar
