WANTS THE STONE
CUT In THIS CITY
f. j. HAMMEs APPEARED BE-
FORE BUILDING COMMITTEE.
a Protest Against the Cut
ting of Stone Outside the City That
Is to Be Used in the Construction
of School Buildings in Scranton.
Complaint Based Upon the Way
Things Are Being Done at No. 2
School-Action of the Committee.

F. ]. Hammes, of the stone Cutters
union, appeared before the building
committee of the board of control at
it's meeting last night and entered "A
protest against the use Of stone cut
outside Of the city in the construction
of school buildings in his clty.
Mr.. Hammes' complaint was based
on No. 2 school building. He said the
contract had been awarded to John
Benore & Son, who sublet the con-
tract for the stone work to NJ. ]. Rud-
dy. The latter is having the st me cut
and dressed at Brandt, Susuuehanna
county, which Mr.. Hammes believes is
an injustice to the stone cutters of this
city. He also charges that the stone
is being cut in a non-union manner at
Brandt.
The speaker thought it was the duty
OF the board to exercise as much SUI
pervision over the sub-contractor "a
1t does over the contractors otherwise
the rules adopted by the board in the
interest Of the tradesmen of this city
will be of no effect.
The members of the committee were
in some doubt as to what they can dc
in the matter. but motion was finally
put and carried which provided that
the committee recommend TO the
board that in all future contracts Ger
school buildings a provision be insert
ed requiring the stone to be cut in
this city.
A number OF routine matters were
considered by the COMMITTEES IN refer
ence to providing additional room at
some of the schools and making ar
rangements for the opening nf night
schools.

CHANGE OF LOCATION.
The Removal Of the Penn Clothing
and Shoe House.

The Penn Clothing and Shoe house,
which for the past sixteen years has
been located at 1919 Penn avenue,
near Spruce street, will soon move
from their present quarters to a more
convenient location.
There is probably not one person in
this entire valley who has not heard
of the Penn Clothing and Shoe house,
and through judiclous advertising and
honest dealings Mr.. S. L. Gallen, the
proprietor, has built up one of the
most prominent and successful busl-
ness establishments in Scranton. Mr..
Gallen did not contemplate moving
until about six weeks ago, after he had
made large contracts with the manu-
facturers for his stock of fall and win
ter clothing and as he had to accept
all the goods he contracted for, he has
an extremely large stock on hand,
which must be sold before the removal,
which occurs in a short time. The
Penn Clothing and Shoe house has in
augurated a removal sale of all their
goods and we would advise the readers
of this paper who contemplate pur-
chasing fall and winter clothing for
boys or men to take advantage of this
sale, as Mr. Gallen promises to save
the people of Scranton thousands of
dollars on their purchases.
The Penn Clothing and Shoe house
genrally gives what it advertises and
Mr. Gallen says that anyone who
comes for an advertised article is never
sent away disappointed. This is prob
ably one of the reasons why he has
been able to build up such an extern
sive business.
Everything that boy or man wears
can be found at this store-from the
shoes to the hat-and the quality OF
goods maintained by the Penn Clothing
and Shoe house has always been of the
highest character,

Mrs. Anna Williams Taken to the
Lackawanna HOSPITAL.

Mrs. Ann Williams, of Providence
road, was a witness in a case to come
up in court yesterday morning and
while waiting in the court room she
was seized with convulsions. She had
her baby in her arms and)as she stag
gered out into the corridor, where she
fell, the babes head struck the marble
floor of the corridor and caused an ugly
looking bruise.
Mrs. Williams was carried into the
law library, but her condition became
so serious that 1t was deemed best to
take her to the Lackawanna hospital.
She remained at that institution until
the afternoon, when she had improved
sufficiently to admit of her being re-
moved to her home by her husband.
