ter police, fire and health. The chair"
men of the committees appoint the
sub-committees. In this city each
council has its separate committees
of five members of each. They only
meet together by special agreement.
Two city clerks who are elected tri-
ennially by the select and common
council respectively. In Allegheny
they are paid 81, l,45O each. In Scranton
we have one city clerk and n clerk OF
common council. The former is paid
81 500 and the latter 5000 annually. The
city clerk is elected for three years
and the common council clerk for one
year.
BY the act OF March 2s, 1895, It Is di-
rected that the select and common
councils of cities of the second class
shall organize at 10 o'clock n. m. on
the first Monday of April following
the biennial election OF councilmen, and
biennially thereafter shall organize for
a like period.

SILVERSTONE, The EYE SPECIALIST
32l Lackawanna Avenue,
Up Stairs Over Lauer & Marks.

There are injurious glasses which are
to be avoided as much as the helpful
ones are to be sought. The best thing
to do is to consult SILVERSTONE, the
eye specialist He is able to do you
good Many persons have greatly inn
paired vision because they do not at
tend to their eyes in time. Silverstone,
the eye specialist, has a record of 5000
different names, to whom he can refer
you for reference for his good work.

cles and eyeglasses. He soldiers
frames and duplicates lenses on short
notice.

Whooping Cough.

I had a little boy who was nearly
dead from an attack of whoopug
cough. My neighbors recommended
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. l did
not think that any medicine would help
him. but after giving him a few doses
of that remedy I noticed an improve
ment, and one bottle cured him en-
tirely. 1t is the best cough medicine
ever had in the house,. l.. Moore,

Saturday afternoon Sheriff c. f.
Pryor read the death warrant to George

him in no particular.
Yesterday he ate three meals, and

effect certain Of the wards would
doubtlessly have passed the mark en-
titling them to an extra representa-
tive. This is particularly true in the
case of the Eighth, Fourteenth and
Sixteenth wards, which lack but a few
taxables to make them each entitled
to two common councilmen. II is
safe to say that Scranton as a second
class city would have forty council
men.
Judging from the present political
complexion of councils, the councils
under the new charter would stand:
Republicans, 81: Democrats, 90.
SOME OF THE RULES OF COUNCIL
Appended is mention OF some of the
rules of councils in Allegheny, after
which Scranton will doubtlessly FASH
ion when It becomes a second class
city. The manner in which they diff
fer from the present rules here is also
given:
Regular meetings once a month instead
Of weekly
Calls for special meetings must be
signed by one-third of the members.
Five is sufficient here.
mittee shall he placed in the hands of
each member by mail or otherwise at
least two days in advance of it's consid-
GRAFTON by councils and no bill shall be
considered unless this provision is COM
piled with. This is not required here,
Mayor given five days to sign or veto
a measure, and a three-ffths vote nec-
essary TO override his veto. The rules
here allow fifteen days for the mayor
to pass upon measure, and a two
thirds vote is required to pass It over
his head.
STANDING COMMITTEES.
Eight standing committees to be an
pointed by the presidents of councils
biennially: Finance, public works, pub
lie safety, charities, corporations. sur
veys, library, water. The committee
on public works consists of twenty
four members, six from select and
eighteen from common. All other COM
mittees consist of sixteen members,
four from select and twelve from
common. The committees on charities,
public safety, surveys. library and cltv
digest report in common council. The
others report in select council. The
chairmen of these committees are des-
iSnated by the president of the branch
in which they report. subcommittee
OF eight members are appointed by the
committee on public works to look af-
ter streets and sewers, property, pub
Tic lighting and parks; and by the
committee on public safety to look Of
