ONE OF THE SIGNS
OF THE CAMPAIGN
II Shows the Way Voters OF the County
Will Act Tuesday.
AN ABUNDANCE OF ENTHUSIASM
Speakers Who Have Addressed the
Republican Meetings Thus Far DUR
ing the Campaign Say They Never
Saw Such "A Wonderful Display of
Interest and Enthusiasm--O Orr
der Reissued from Democratic
Headquarters--Sch Lieuten-
ants Paying Out.

one Of the signs that indicates the
way the voters of the county will act
next Tuesday is shown in the enthusi-
asm displayed at all Of the Hepubli-
can mass meetings. 1t is wonderful.
Not even the great demonstrations for
the national standard bearers last year
have exceeded those given TO the coun-
ty candidates whenever meetings have
been held.
The speakers say that never in their
experience have they addressed more
attentive or enthusiastic gatherings.
AT Republican headquarters requests
for speakers come from all parts of the
county. There are so many applica-
tiuns for meetings now on file that
Fred w. Fleitz, is in quandary as to
the best method of solving the difll-
Guilty. In another column will be
found a schedule of the meetings ar
ranged up to date. The meeting at
Dalton which was originally set down
for Friday night has been changed to
Saturday night and It gives promise
of being one of the largest held north
of the mountain in recent years.
THE ORDEDS ISSUED.
about the partys platform" were the
about the party's platform were the
orders again issued from Democratic
headquarters yesterday. Some of the
speakers We're honest enough to say
q few words about the platform on
which the candidates are running and
this news was received with anything
but pleasure at headquarters as may
be inferred from the above order di-
rectng the whole force of campaign
orators 70 fight shy of the platform
| and the issues it endorses.
Where they will get more money is
| one of the knotty problems that is
causing much figuring on the part of
| Fitzsimmons, Boland, ct al. Schadt is
| the only one willing to disgorge and
| he gives up with the distinct under
| standing that the money is to be used
| to further his int arestS only. Most of
| the other candidates feel hey are en-
| gagged in a hopeless fight and are
| averse to getting any deeper into the
mire.
Fred Warnke declares that he has
| nothing more to give and Mathew
| Norton says he has put all he pro-
poses into a losing game. Koch has
several times passed the hat around
among his friends to secure the sim
ews of war and feels that he has play
ed the game close to the limit.
LAWS POSITION.
When Thomas Law Of Archibald went
on the ticket he did so with the under
standing that his assessments were to
be light. They have been heavy in
stead and Is beginning to seriously
object to the strain. Kelly and Horn

SUPPER AZ HOLY CROSS CHURCH.
Over Twelve Hundred Persons Were
Served Last Night.

The supper which was held in the
basement of Holy Cross church in
Bellevue, last evening, far exceeded in
results the fullest expectations of those
in charge. An approximate estimate
showed that between twelve and fifteen
hundred persons were served between
the hours of and 10 o'clock, and even
then about half as many more never
got inside the doors. AS a proof of the
rush of people, Rev. w. p. O'Donnell,
rector of the parish, was forced to an
nounce the postponement of the enter
tanment and the orchestra found 1t
an impossibility to get sufficient space
to play in.
The basement which is over rs feet
long and 30 feet wide was a scene Of
beauty. The decorations consisted of
bunting and flags and each of the
twenty-five tables was artistically ar
ranged with flowers.
The general committee consisted Of
the following ladies of the church:
Mrs. John j. O'Hara, chairlady; Mrs.
Martin O'Hara, Mrs.W. A. Grady, Mrs.
NJ. Hart and Miss Mary Doyle. The
foreladles at the tables were: Mrs.
w. A. Grady Mrs. p. Caffrey, Mrs.
Thomas Ruddy, Mrs. ]. Dougherty,
Mrs. M. Reagan, Mrs. d. Mannix, Mrs.
NJ Gerrity, Mrs. A. Nolan, and Mrs.
John quinn, of section one; Mrs. John
Messitt, Mrs. John Lee, Mrs. p. j.
O'Donnell, Mrs. James O'Malley, Mrs.
j. Buckley, Mrs. J. Cawley, Mrs. G..
Hanlon, Mrs. w. Cullen and Mrs. c.
Cawley, Of section two; Mrs. p. j. Gill
roy, Mrs. James Shea, Mrs. w. McDon-
ough, and the Misses Richards, of the
centre section.
The supper will be repeated this
evening.

VIOLENT GIRL STRIKERS.
Disorder Follows Their Quitting.

sheriff Called Upon for Help.
One hundred girls employed at the
Avoca Silk mill went on strike for an
increase in wages yesterday afternoon
and when the mill owners refused to
grant their demands upon their re-
turn to the mills at six o'clock they
began to stone the factory.
The crowd which had followed them
Joined in the attack and before they
left there was scarcely q whole win
dow remaining in the building.
The borough police were powerless to
cope with the crowd and fearing repe-
tition of the riotous conduct, today
called upon Sheriff James Martin, of
Luzerne county, to give them assist
ance. He promised to be on hand in
the morning and will assume charge
of affairs if conditions warrant it.
Thirty-fve girls refused to join the
strikers and should they attempt to re-
turn to work this morning it is feared
trouble will ensue.
Warrants have been sworn out for
a number of the leaders of the attack
and arrests will probably be made to-
day.
Last night David Dick, who is ac-
cused of being one of the ringleaders
of the girls allies, was arrested on a
warrant charging riot and malicious
mischief. Some of the girls, it is said
will also be arrested.

ment better than any of the other men
on the ticket say Schadt.
The latter is spending money more
lavishly than any candidate who ever
run for an office in Lackawanna coun-
ty. For the last two weeks his lieu
tenants have been paying out money
with an unstinted hand and they are
very much sought after by the politi-
cal heelers and strikers. Schadts
managers say there are several thous-
and purchasable votes in the county
and they propose to capture them II
money can do the work. They know
they need them and will try at al
hazards to land them.

HUMAN BONES FOUND.
Discovery fWOrkmen in IA Sand Pit
at priCcburg.

While digging sand from hillside
near the johnson Coal company's
breaker at Priceburg Monday, the
workmen uncovered two collins con-
tanning the bones of persons who were
buried years ago. The oldest inhabi-
tant thereabouts does not remember
ever having heard of that plot being
used as a burial place.
The remains had evidently been
properly and decently inferred and the
size of the bones indicated they were
those of full grown persons. The bones
We're all carefully gathered together
and reinterred.

JURY EMPANNELLED.

Previous to this, however, Squire
William Brown had empannelled jury
to investigate the death. The jurors
are: Robert Curtis, John Engle, John
Fabian, Edward Kelly, John Barrett
and John Benedict. A meeting will be
held this week to hear testimony.
After the body was removed the sui
lenness of the crowd seemed to abate
and at 11.30 o'clock the cars were per-
mitted to pass.
William Connors, shoe agent, was
one of the passengers on the first car
to reach the scene ten minutes after
the accident. Mr.. Connors TO a Tri-
bune reporter this morning said that
the excitement can hardly be imagined.
"Why," he said, 'if that mob ever got
hold of Coggins and James they
wouldn't have lived four seconds. They
We're crazed, that's ALL"
Bolandey, the dead man, was mar
ried and is survived by wife and two
children.

to assert that the values offered are
the lowest, to endeavor to create a

this assertion is, of course, the only
