The Scranton tribune. [volume] (Scranton, Pa.) 1891-1910, 1899-11-18

AS mentioned in yesterday mornings
tribune, a number of the mail routes
OF the city have been re-arranged and
better delivery and collection facilities
@lorued IN various sections Of the CITY.
There will be four deliveries on tho
Following streets where there have baen
heretofore only three: 200, 300 and 400
p,ochs OF spruce street; 200 and 300
nIocks or Penn and Wyoming avenues.
oVV ana 400 blocks of Linden street; 600
ana 'oo blocks of West Lackawanna
avenue and Dockash place. These de-
lVerles viii be made at $50 and 1870
a. m. and 154 and 42O D. m.
There Will be three deliveries in the
Following districts where there have
been only two heretofore: All the fer
rltory bounded by Adams avenue.
spruce street Clay avenue and Gibson
street; the 300, 400 and 500 blocks of
wyoming avenue and the 400 block OF
Vine street.
The upper Petersburg district above
webster avenue, including Nay Aug
ana Tripp park, will be given two de-
llVeries day instead of only one.
MORE COLLECTIONS.
1t is, however, the increased number
or collections which have been ar
ranged for that will appeal principally
to and be of more benefit to the larger
portion of the citys population. The
increased facilities along this line are
Que to the fact that there are now two
mounted collectors attached to the
corps of postoffice servants.
There Will be from now on an early
morning collection at o'clock from all
the boxes included between Lackawan-
ma avenue, Franklin avenue, Spruce
street and Washington avenue, includ-
ing also the lower or wholesale block
OF Lackawanna avenue. The mail col
lected at this time will so out on the
o'clock New York train, whereas up
to the present time the earliest that
New York mail ever left the city was
at $50 q. m.
The collector will then go to West
Scranton, where collections will be
made from all the boxes on Main ave
nue. between Eynon street and West
Lackawanna avenue. The mail thus
collected will be distributed in time to
catch the $50 train. This is n most
important innovation, as heretofore Il
letter was mailed in Hyde Park after
o'clock at night, when the last collec-
tion is made. it could not leave this
city before 1855, there being no morn
Ing collection until after II o'clock.
IN NORTH SCRANTON.
There will also be a morning collec-
tion on Main avenue, North Scranton,
Green Ridge street and Capouse ave-
nue. in time to catch this $50 train.
There will also be a collection on Cedar
and Pittston avenues, as far south as
Birch street. at the noon hour and one
in Hyde Park at $50 p. M
The hill" district included between
Jefferson and Webster avenues and
Linden and Gibson streets will have a
collection at o'clock each morning.
This district has never been favored

HIT WITH A CLUB.-Alderman Kas-
sons office. about o'clock yesterday
afternoon, looked like a small sized
italian colony. it was all due to TIE
fact that Marie PasQualcchio had been
arrested on warrant sworn out by Vito
Sanale, charging her with assaulting
him with club. Both parties live in
Dunmore. Marie was placed in $500 bail,
by the alderman.

G. II. CHAPPELL, GRANT PARK, Ill.
For several years my health was
miserable. suffered the most dread
full pains, and was almost on the verge
of insanity. l consulted one of the
best physicians In New York, and ho
pronounced my disease fibroid tumor,
advising an operation without delay,
saying that 1t was my only chance for
life. Other doctors prescribed strong
and violent medicine, and one said
was incurable, another told me my
only salvation was galvanic batteries,
which tried, but nothing relieved me.
One day friend called and begged me
to try Lydia L. PinkhGm's Vegetable
Compound. began its use and took
several bottles. From the very first
bottle there was wonderful change
for tho better. The tumor has disap-
peared entirely and my old spirits have
returned. i heartily recommend your
medicine to all suffering women. -

MONEY STICKS TO FINGERS.
Cuban General Says His Country men
Have Yet TO Learn Honesty.

HAVANA. Aug. "A Cuban general.
in a letter published in the ~Independ-
encia, says some commanders Of the
Cuban army have taken advantage Of
the three million dollars gratuity to get
money from the soldiers for granting
them the certificates necessary to en-
able them TO collect their quota. He
gives three cases Of men who were
charged by Ramos. n colonel in a Cuban
regiment. In another instance, it ap-
pears a man could not get his certificate
owing to the lack Of money to pay for
it. The writer says:
Every day shows that the Ameri.
cans are more and more right. Many
years must pass before the Cubans learn
how to handle money without letting it
stick 10 their fingers
The general then asks. in view Of the
facts adduced. what would have hap.
pened il the Americans had entrusted
the distribution Of the gratuity to Gu.
