The Scranton lottery case, for which
extensive preparations were made, and
which was expected to occupy the best
part of two days, was summarily dis
posed of by plea of guilty The de-
fendant, Alex. j. Strait, was accused
of conducting lottery with the aid OF
the United States mails 1t was known
as the San Domingo lottery and while
II purported to be, foreign affair, it
was in reality conducted in this city in
the 500 block of Lackawanna avenue.
Strait, it's manager and as far as is
inown, the whole concern, is u Po-
lander.
He confined his operations to the
people of the Slavonian race, all his
circulars being printed in the Slavon-
ian language and his agents and en-
ployes all being of that nationality.
For that reason he escaped detection
for a long time, but was finally run
down by Postofiice Inspector Garman,
of Philadelphia, and the detectives or
District Attorney Heiner's office. The
officers were materially aided by John
Rovianck. of Pittsburg, president of
the National Slavonic society. Slavs
from New Jersey, New York and Ohio
were on hand to testify to having re-
ceived circulars inviting them to in
vest in the lottery.

EIGHTEEN COUNTS.


There were eighteen counts alto
gether against Strait. He plead guilty
to the principal charge, that of using
the mails for lottery purposes, and a
nolle pros was entered in the others.
He will be sentenced later.
A plea of non contendere, which is in
effect plea of guilty was entered by
Charles T. Hull the defrauding cash
ier of the First National bank of Ath-
ems, Bradford county. There were fif-
teen counts against him, the principal
ones being embeZZlement and falsify-
ing returns. His defalcations amount
ed to about IS, 900. He was held in $500
bail for his appearance at the next
term of court for sentence.

cused of falsely Identifying John Jer-
ominek, who forged a money order on

was allowed to go with a suspended
sentence.
william T. Seibert, of Snyder county
accused of sending obscene matter
through the mails, plead guilty and
was also let off with q lecture and a
warning. His crime was that of send
ing foul letters to Ely Reigel, of Mt
Pleasant Mills, telling him to watch his
wife and making the most scurrillous
kind of accusations against her In
one of the letters he said, IF you don't
believe it, ask William Seibert about

scented by II. d. McBurney Of New

toms wife died several years ago
leaving two children and small
sum of money to each. The father
was appointed guardian and invest

was safe business. The results
was that he lost the money, and in
his efforts to save what belonged to
bis children he lost nearly all that
be owned. His daughter married

The Atlanta peace jubilee, which
brought to that city the president

Spain, and resulted in utterances
by the executive which have cement
ed hard and fast the bonds between
the north and south, was brought
to fitting close by an elaborate
banquet. All the city's distin-
guished guests were present and
seated at the presidents table.
The Atlantians attending the ban
quet were representative of the
city's wealth and business interests.
Many prominent men from all parts
of the south also graced the tables.
Hon. Clark Howell, editor of the
Atlanta Constitution, acted as toast
master. In one of his toasts he
paid tribute to President McKin-
ley's policy of appointing southern
men and ex-confederates to high
offices which he said had "broken
forever the barrier that divides north
and south and stamps the indissol.

Another Omaha Expedition

A decision to hold a Greater
America exposition in Omaha in
1899 was reached at a mass-meeting
of business men, bankers and pro-
fessional men held in that city a
few nights ago. Over sos 900 was
subscribed for the project. This
amount is said to be more than
enough to turn the grounds and
buildings of the recent trans Mis-.
sissippi exposition over to the new
association. A committee of twen-
ty-five with Edward Rosewater as
chairman, was appointed to prepare
articles of incorporation for the
new association, and draft form
of government.

Don't worry. Don't hurry. Don't

fresh air every day and night.
Sleep and rest a great deal. Spend
less nervous energy every day than
YOU make. Be careful. Work like
a woman, but don't be worked to
death. Avoid passion and excite
ment. Associate with healthy peo-
pie; health is contagious as we'll as

world on your shoulders, far less
the universe. Never despair. Lost
hope is a fatal disease.

that the uncle could we'll afford to

At length the lad concluded that
the policy he had adopted was not
going 10 win, and took another tact.
Bringing his countenance to most
disconsolate look, he expressed a
wish that he had not made the visit.
"Why, my boy" inquired the old
man, with more interest than he
had before displayed.

SOME LESSONS IN PH1LIPPINE
How to Pronounce Some OF the Annexed
Names.

How to Pronounce some OF the Annexed
Names.
Both the soldiers and sailors from
America are having a hard time
learning to pronounce Philippine
names, says the correspondent Of
the Chicago Record. Hundreds of
those who have been here some
weeks are still struggling with the
name "Cavite." A prominent ofti-
Ger calls it Cavity, as if it were "a
hole, and those who stick to Ca-veet
are numbered by the hundreds.
Occasionally man is found who
refers with familiarity to the place
as Cavity. But the real way the
old settlers pronounce it is "Kay-
veety," with the accent on the "veet. !"
Corrigedor, the island at the en-
trance to the bay, which played q
star part in the accounts of the
battle in May, is another hard one.
A good many dodge it and refer to
it as that island out at the end of
the bay" But others sail in boldly
and call it Refrigerator. Kor-
red-a-dor is favorite, but the
Spanish way is Kor-reck-i-dor, with
'reck" eoftened little bit. as if
you started to say "reck," but quit
| on second thought.
The Spanish say Philippines as
if the last syllable were pronounced
"peens," but the English call i,
"pines." Luzon is simply Luzon,
hut it doesn't rhyme with "bozin.'

Butler, aged respectively 20 and

Daisy Browser, a young girl. The
crime was heinous one, and IN
the trial it was proven that the girl
had been shot down from ambush
for no cause whatever. The defense
made an attempt to prove that IN

the Jury could not be convinced.
