An Excellent Combination.

The pleasant method and beneficial
effects of the well known remedy,
SYRUP OF FIGS, manufactured by the
CALIFORNIA FGG SYRUP Co., illustrate
the value of obtaining the liquid laxa-
tive principles of plants known TO be
incidentally laxative and presenting
them in the form most refreshing TO the
taste and acceptable to the system. IL
is the one perfect strengthening laxa-
tive, cleansing the system effectually,
dispelling colds, headaches and fevers
gently yet promptly and enabling one
to overcome habitual constipation per-
manently Its perfect freedom from
every Objectionable quality and sub.
stance, and its acting on the kidneys,
liver and bowels, without weakening
or irritating them, make it the ideal
laxative.
In the process of manufacturing figs
are used, as they are pleasant to the
taste, but the medicinal qualities of the
remedy are obtained from senna and
other aromatic plants, by a method
known to the CALIFORNIA FIo SYRUP
Co. only. In order to get its beneficial
effects and to avoid limitations, please
remember the full name of the Company
printed on the front of every package.

PURSUED BY CREDITORS.



lngs of Eiectment.
J. r. Coyle, Il. w. Shoemaker and II. r,
leddall, Esqs, as board of arbtrators on
proceedings of eiectment instituted by Mr.
Burke, rs attorney for creditors, against
Joseph Yaduskey and his wife, Marths, aud
his father, William Yaduskey.
Mr.. Burke represents claims aggregatine
from 1900 to 81 800, among the creditors be-
ing Arbogast and Bastian and Rim Sons, OF
Allentown; SpanOgle and Yeager, Philadel.
phia; Lessig and Baer Ashland; Hooven
Mercantile Company, and b. Labows and
Company, Mahanoy City; Smith, Foster and
Company, Philadelphia; Henry L. Jones and
William II. Glenn, Shenandoah, and the Ash.
land Soap Works.
Joseph Yaduskey was in the grocery bust
ness on East Centre street and failed. His
wife subsequently engaged in business
and failed three months later. After
the failures property located at Laurel
street and Pear alley was purchased
from p. j. Ferguson by William Saduskey.
Joseph's father for 81 1000. The creditors
allege that the property was really purchased
by Joseph. Lawyer Burke pressed the claims
aud secured n Sherifi's deed TO the propertv.
as the representative of the creditors. The
present proceedings are instituted to eject
Joseph, Martha and William Yaduskey from
the premises.
When the arbitration opened S. 6. M.
Hollopeter, ESQ., attorney for Joseph va
duskey, presented paper in which his client
declared that he had no interest in, or claim
to, the property in question.
In opening the case Mr.. Burke said he
would show that a Judgment note was given
for the property, that William Yaduskey had
no means with which to pay for the purchase,
aud that the judgment note was paid off in
installments by Joseph Yaduskey. Mr..
Burke added that he would show that right
after Yaduskey failed he paid $500 in cash
for car load Of -four He also said that the
proceedings were not pressed for a pecuniary
purpose but to make an example in the case
for many others who resort to methods lead
ing to the deception and defrauding of credi-
tors.
Joseph Yadusl1ey was the first witness
called. He said he has been in this country
sixteen years. He worked in the mines for
six years and saved $500 or $500. With this
he started in business and failed six years
ago. While in that business he had 300
customers who dealt with him on books and
he has about $4,000 worth of outstanding
accounts
The arbitration was not concluded to-day
and several sessions will be required.

"ADMIT WITHIN FIRE LINES"
An Extraordinary Motto For n Re
pOrter's Funeral Emblem.

An Extraordinary Motto For Re-
pOrter's Funeral Emblem.
In his story of "The Last of the Null
berry Street Barons, in The Century,
Mr. Jacob A. Riis, author of GLOW the
Other Half Lives" tells rather grew
some but very amusing anecdote of fell
low reporter attached to police headquar-
ters in Mulberry street, New York.
There had been feud of long standing
between the reporters in Mulberry street,
and in consequence news was plentiful.
There were mutual scores to be paid off,
and we paid them off in the coin of the
realm. The coin of Mulberry street was
murder, fire and sudden death 1--WE had
passed the stage of boxing gloves and did
not speak as we passed by, and it went
long way. l do not mean, of course, that
we murdered or burned up one another,
but these things were the staples of our
daily work as police reporters, and when
we were "out' the precinct returns re-
ceived an extra. sitting, with the result
that many grain of newspaper wheat
that would otherwise have escaped was
rescued from the dust bin
We had our specialties in this contest of
wits. One was distinguished as a sleuth.
He fed on detective mysteries as a cat ON
Il chicken bone. He thought them out by
day and dreamed them out by night, to
the great evaporation of the official de-
tectiYes, with whom their solution was
commercial, not in the least an intollec-
tual, affair They solved them on the plane
of the proverbial lacking Of honor among
thieves, by the formula, "YOu scratch my
back, and I'll scratch yours. I"
Another came out strong on fires. He
knew the history of every house in town
that ran any risk of being burned, knew
every fireman and could tell within 81 900,
moro or less, what was the value of the
goods stored in any building in the dry
goods district and for how much they were
insured If he couldn't he did anyhow,
and his guesses often came near the facts,
as shown in the final adjustment He
shifted a hrebug from afar and knew
without asking how much salvage there
was in "a bale of cotton after being "a
hours In the fire He Is dead, poor fellow.
In life he was fond of joke and in
death the joke clung to him in a way
wholly unforeseen.
The flremen in the next block, with
whom he made his headquarters when off
duty, so that he might always be within
hearing of the gong, wished to give some
tangible evidence of their regard for the
old reporter, but, being in hurry, left 1t
to the florist, who knew him well, to
choose the design. He hit upon a floral
fire badge as the proper thing, and thus 1t
was that when the company Of mourners
was assembled and the funeral service in
progress there arrived and was SGT upon
the coffin, In the view Of all, that triumph

The Wounded Men Are Yet Alive

A message from New Boston yes

Hays and manning wounded in the
Smith, Hays fight, remains in the
same condition they did yesterday,
the doctors not knowing whether
their wounds are necessarily fatal
or not, and it will take time to de-
velop the seriousness of their
wounds.
Hart who had his arm broken, is
doing well. The trouble that led
to the shooting grew out of land
sale.
About twelve months ag one of
the Hays boys sold a piece of land
to Mr.. Frick. 1t was found after
the sale that Hays had left some
barbed wire on the land and claim
ed it did not 90 with the land, but
the purchaser would not give it up
and a fight on Sunday was the re-
suit. The parties we're cited to ap-
