GOOD PRINTERS WANTED.
SO Judge Taft Thinks They Ought
to Be Americans.

Secretary Root has received a cable
gram from Judge Taft, President of the
Philippine Commission asking that
printer be sent TO Manila to take charge
of the new office, and recommending that
Isaac c. Haas be transferred from the
Government Printing Office to Manila.
At the War Department yesterday it
was said that a Government printing Of
fee will be established in Manila for the
use Of the Philippine Commission. as the
printing facilities there are inadequate to
meet the requirements of the Commission.
1t is estimated that the services of not
less than ten printers will be required,
and rs the printers are under the civil
service rules they will. il is understood
be appointed by transfer from the Gov
ernment Printing Office Il is not i'm
probable that a bindery will be estab-
lished in connection with the Munila
printing Office. although President Taft
did not mention it in his cablegram to the
War Department.

the flames before they had done much
damage,

Could Not Swim to Shore
When Boat Upset.

Joseph O'Donnell, aged % years,
who resided on New street, was
drowned yesterday afternoon in Lily
lake. where he had gone with party
of friends to spend the day.
He went out in a boat with
friend, and when about a quarter of
a mile from the shore. both leaped
into the water for a swim. They used
the boat to dive from and accidentally
overturned it.
O'Donnell struck out boldly for the
shore as soon as the boat upset, and
had reached point about thirty feet
distant from the bank when he was
seen to struggle in the water. Be-
fore any of those in the boats nearby
could reach him, he sank out of sight.
Frank Heferan, member of the
party and a former marine. has the
reputation of being an expert diver,
and he made a number of attempts
to bring up the body, but was unsuc-
cessful. 1t was finally recovered by
means of device used for dragging
the lake. The remains were brought
to this city and taken to the home
of the dead mans sister, Mrs. Henry
Goddard, of New street.
The dead young man was clerk in
Winters grocery store, on Capouse
avenue, and was very popular among
his associates.

ALFRED DARTE DEAD
End Came Suddenly at His Home in
Kingston.

Judge Alfred Dartc, OF the orphans
court of LuZerne county, died very
suddenly Saturday afternoon of
apoplexy at his home in Kingston. He
was So years old His family was at
his bedside. Judge Darte was one of
the best known men in the state and
there will be Widespread grief, es-
peCially in G.. a. r. circles, over his
death. He was commander of the
Pennsylvania department for several
years, and was one of the most popu-
lar campfire speakers of the order.
Judge Darte was born in 1886 and
was educated in the common schools
and the Wyoming seminary. He read
law and was admitted to the bar in
Wilkes Barre in 1859. When the war
broke out, both father and son Joined
Company *, Twenty-fifth Pennsylva-
mia volunteers, the father being cap
tain and the son lieutenant. He
served until April 1864, when he was
severely wounded and discharged.
In 1879 he was elected district at
torney and was reelected the sue
ceeding term. In 1891 he ran for judge

feated. Two years ago he was elected
judge of the orphans court, on the
expiration of Judge Rhone's term.

UKAsE RELIGIoUsLY oBEYED
"Merry-Go-Rounds" and the Like
Shut Down at the Park.

Recorder Connclfs ukase against
the operation of the ''merry-go-
rounds" "razzle dazzle" and Crosbys
games of SKILL on Sundays, was
religousy obeyed yesterday, the first
Sunday to come to pass since the issu-
ing of the ukase.
The concessonists in the park and
out on the free Midway were lolling
about their respective enterprises,
sulkily watching the crowd passing to
and fro and mentally calculating the
number of nickels being carried past
that might be theirs but for the fact
that the inconsiderate persons who
have their small thousands invested
in homes thereabouts will insist on
having quietude one day in the week
and stolidly refuse to accept "The
Curse of a Pretty Face" as sacred
music, even when played with flute
and piCcolo attachments.
The disgruntled concessionists had
one grain of solace. Yesterdays was
the smallest Sunday crowd that has
been at the park this summer. Ac-
cording to Superintendent Patterson,
of the Scranton Railway company, not
more than 5000 persons were carried
on the trolley care, and wholly want
ing was the usual jam of fashionable
equipages that blocked the entrance to
the park while the Crosby grind organ
with the flute and piccolo attachment
ground out its enhancing grist.
