In its cure, Is to take a quantity Of
peach leaves and beat them to a pulp

persons have tried this remedy when
all others failed to give relief, and 1t
was beneficial in its results. At the
season Of the year When many persons
are injured by tramping on rusty nail
this remedy should be noted.

CALLED TO HARRISBURG.
Z. A. Jones, of Archibald, Summoned
There About the Controllership.
His Appointment Certain.

II was announced yesterday that
Edward Jones. of Archibald, is the
choice of Governor Stone for the newly
Mr.. Jones was summoned to Harris
burg. presumably, to be personally
notified.
Although one of the last to come
into the field, MIR. Jones from the first
announcement Of his candidacy was
looked upon by the other candidates
as Il very formidable antagonist, be-
cause of the fact that the appointec
will be the logical choice of the county
convention and the ticket should have
an up-thc-vallcy representative.
The offices to be filled next fail will
likely be judge of the common pleas
court, judge of the orphans court,
county coroner. county surveyor and
county controller. 1t is almost a
surety that the nominations for the
two judgeships and the Office OF COR
oner will 90 to Scranton men and
that the candidate for county surveyor
will be from the county.
Had the appointmct gone to Hon.
w. Is. Beck. of Moscow, the ticket
would have two representatives from
the country districts, as A. T.. Stcv-
cnson. the county surveyor, is seeking
the usually accorded second term.
This would leave the district COM
monty referred to as up valley"
without 4 representative, and this
probably accounts for Mr.. Beck being
called upon to give way to Mr.. Jones.

The participants in the Trbune's s
Educational contest are certainly
starting out in earnest. The results
of Yesterdays work were very good,
and made considerable change among
the leaders. Meyer Lewis wrested
the first place away from Henry
Schwenker, who has led for nearly a
week, and now has a point to spare.
August Brunner of Carbondale, came
up from fourth to third place, while
\. II. Harris drops back. William
Miles, of Hyde Park, also came up
cnc, jumping from sixth to fifth place,
displacing Frank Kemmerer, of Fac
toryvillc.
Miss Norma Meredith, of Hyde Park.
made her first returns yesterday, and
is the first young lady to be in the
list of leaders. She occupies seventh
place this morning. but she expects
to gain a much better standing before
the contest is much older. r. Leo
Huber continues to slide down, as he
has not made a return in a week.
Two new entries yesterday We're
Frank Williams, of Pcckville.
This is favorable time for any one
to enter. The present leaders have
only been at work for few days and
may be easily caught and passed.
For example, contestant who begins
to-day, by securing six subscribers,
at one year each. would be at the
very head of the list Better begin
now.

day. A mass meeting of the Dover
strikers will be held tomorrow night.
There was no change yesterday in
the situation at the various manufac-
turing establishments whose men are
out on strike. 1t was rumored during
the day that Mr.. Allis. of Milwaukee,
of the Allis-Chalmers company was in
the city, but inquiry at the concerns
Dickson shops proved that the report
was an erroneous one.
MAY BE HERE TODAY.
II is believed, however, that he will
be in this city today or within n short
time to take some action regarding
k1e strike at the local plant.
The information was given out at
local strike headquarters that the
LaCkawanna had given a large order
to the Schenectady Locomotive works
operations at which were in no way
effected by the nine-hour day move
inent. 1t Is also stated that much diff
ficulty is being locally experienced in
keeping the engines in repair and en-
ginemen are daily greatly delayed in
waiting for their engines.
a meeting of the council was held
last night in the office of Chairman
Humphrey Campbell. All the delegates
reported that their lodges had adopted
recommendation to delegate executive
power to the council and their action
therefore makes the body an executive
board of the metal workers of this city.
The car builders will receive the sup
port of the council in their ninehour
day movement. but are expected to
hereafter cooperate with the car
builders over the Delaware, Lacka-
wanna and Western system. A gem
eral chairman was also chosen at the
meeting to take charge of the work OF
directing the various details of the
strike. appointing pickets and scouts,
and all committees.
The council will he permanent and
will make it's headquarters at HUI
bert's hall, III Wyoming avenue. A
conference was on at New York yester-
day between representatives of the
Metal Trades association and the ma
chinists of District II, but even if a
settlement is effected it will have no
local bearing.

BATTALION CHIEFS NAMED
Director Hitchcock Makes Five New
Appointments in Fire Department.
Old District Chiefs Named.

Director of Public Safety T.. l..
Hitchcock yesterday issued an order
creating five battalions in the fire de-
partment and appointing five battalion
chiefs.
The battalions created will take in
the following companies:
First battalion-Nay Aug. Crystal.
Phoenix, Hook and Ladder, Franklns
and Columbia.
Second battalion-I.iberty, Niagara,
Excelsior, General Phinney and Cum
berland.
Third battalion-Relief
Fourth battalon-Century, William
Connell and Neptune.
Fifth Observation-Disclosures.
The battalion chiefs appointed are
First. d. j: Slowe; Second, Ernest Mil
Ter: Third. Charles Robinson: Fourth,
Charles Simrell; Fifth, Michael Ger
rity. All these men, with the eXcep-
ton of Smrell, We're formerly district
chiefs under the old regime. At the
solicitation of Director Hitchcock they
were sworn in as call men yesterday
and accepted the positions offered
them, though no extra compensation is
TO be allowed them.
Each battalion chief is to be required
to respond to every alarm from the
district or districts included in his bat
talon and is to have entire charge of
the direction of all work until the az
rival Of the chief engineer, from whom
alone he is to take orders. He is to be
held directly responsible for movement
of all companies and apparatus in his
charge.
The last section of the order issued
yesterday repeals the section of Gem
cral Order, No. >. issued some weeks
ago, providing that the ranking cap
tain of the companies present at fire
should take charge until the arrival of
the chief.
Director Hitchcock, in speaking to a
Tribune reporter yesterday afternoon
said that he appointed the battalion
chiefs because he had decided that the
captains of the several companies would
have enough To do looking after their
own men AT Il fire. without directing
the movements of several companies
He said that he thought councils
should make some provision for the
payment of the battalion chiefs.

DR.LANSING NOTPRESENT
Didn't Attend the Meeting of the
Committee on Rules-Resolution
Will Be Again Offered.

Rev DR.. Isaac i. Lansing was not
present at last nights meeting of the
board of control committee on rules
held for the purpose of considering the
charges which he made against the
board in an address delivered at Ro-
chester, n. Y.
lie had been invited to attend by
letter, but sent word thlrough MIR.
Jayne that he had a meeting to at
tend and could not be present. Mr..
Jayne said that he had asked the doc
tor il he would attend a meeting Of
the committee held on any other night
and said that the doctor had replied
that he would not. as there was no
reason for his SD doing. Dr.. Lansing
when asked yesterday afternoon by Il
Tribune man if he intended attend
ing the meeting replied, "Certainly
not"
The majority OF the members of the
committee, Messrs. Jennings, Barker
and LanSan. favored recommending
at next Monday nights meeting of the
board the adoption of the original reso-
luton introduced on Monday night by
Mr.. Langan. This Messrs. Jayne and
Evans, constituting the minority, OBJ
jected to Strcnuously.
Mr.. JAYNE offered the following reso-
luton, which he wanted the commit
tee to report favOrably upon:
Resolved, That W. recommend TO the board OF
control that DR.. Lansing be requested to appear
before the board and name the individual mem.
bcrs Of the board OF control to whom he referred
in his Rochester address and specify charges
against each individual named.
Il, \ 4
ter a long discussion and a favorable
report on the original decided upon.
Mr. Jayne said that he would bring in
his resolution on Monday night as a
minority report.
Mr.. Jayne took particular objection
to the original resolution because lie
claimed it "nayed nr. Lansing too
hard ana showed too much spleen"
This remark didn't please Mr.. Barker,
who said:
We've got a perfect right to fay
him. He first tayed us and was the
first to show Spleen
Mr.. Langan favored favorable re-
port on his original resolution, because
he said he didn't desire to be made
target of for DR.. Lansing. lie didn't
desire to have reflections cast upon his
reputation.
President John Gibbons. who was
present as an ex-oIicio member Of the
committee, made a lengthy address in
which he said that he didn't "see any
reason for handling this man Lansing
with kid gloves after the way he had
handled the school board"
lie referred to the reverend gentle
man as y "carpet-bagger" and said
the doctors children We're turned out
of school for misbehavior.
LET him look after his own first"
said he, "instead of spreading slandcr
about other people," lie said that
if il was his own clergyman who said
what Dr. Lansing had said about the
school board he would feel Just as he
did. He intimatod that there was a
possibility that he might bring legal
proceedings for slander,

The famous Stirk family. one of the
great features of the Wallace Shows,
does work that borders on the mar
velous. In truth, some of their at
tainments are of such complex Difficult
ties that it frequently passes with but
little more notice from the public than
their simpler displays. solely because
the audience can follow it's intricate

1t not infrequently happens that
when II particularly hazardous feat
is accomplished the strongest and most
pronounced applause will come from
the entry wherein the other actors Of

This tribute to their genius from
their fellow performers Is as unusual
as 1t is spontaneous, and testifies to
their superiority more cloquently than
any eulogy possibly could.

of actors as that of the Stirks does.
