The public would like to know what
kind of pull Architect Tilden has on
the covrt house. Over 5000 for work
on the Canal Fulton bridge that should
have been done by the county surveyor
and over 5000 for work on the infirmary
cottage that was never built is quite
a graft within one year. Tilden and
the man who is to get over 5000 to
make the court house windows turn
round in place of sliding up and down
and the famous workhouse plumbers
ought to form partnership. The poor
taxpayers will appreciate this liber-
atty with which public funds are dis
persed. 1t keeps a surplus from burst
ing the doors of the treasury.

"INCURABLE" HEART DIS.
EASE SOON CURED.

During the last two or three years
q very great Improvement has been
made in the treatment of diseases of the
heart Cases formerly considered in
curable now readily yield to new reme-
dies. The well known specialist in
treating heart disease. Franklin Miles,
M. ID. LII. b., of Chicago, win send $3.50
worth of his new Special Treatment
free to any of cur afflicted readers.
This liberal offer is for the purpose OF
demonstrating the unusual curative
powers of his new Treatments for
heart troubles, such as short breath,
pain In the side. oppression in the chest,
irregular pulse, ralpitation, smothering
spells. putting of the ankles or dropsy.
They are the result of twenty-five
years of careful study. extensive re-
search, and remarkable experience in
treating diseases of the heart. stomach
and nerves, which often complicate each
case.
The treatments are prepared ey-
pressly for each patient, as the re-
suit is very much more certain and sat
isfactory.
Few physicians have such confidence
in their remedies. And there is no rea-
son why all afflicted persons should not
avail themselves of this liberal offer. No
death comes more suddenly than that
from heart disease. Thousands die un-
necessarily each year because most ply
sicians dc not understand these cases.
Mrs. Frank Smith, of Chicago, was cured OF
heart dropsy, after five leading physiciens
had given her up. Mr.. Keister, OF Chicago,
was cured after failure of ten a BILE ply ysicians.
A thousand references to and testimonials
from Bishops, Clergymen, Bankers, Farm
ers, and their wives Will he sent free on re-
quest. These include many who have been
cured after from five to twenty or more ply
sicians and professors had pronounced them
"incurable." Among them are ii. A. Groce,

however, who have been bound over to

dictments are found against them.
Fifty-fve divorce cases are ON the

RIPPER FOR
.PITTSBURG
ConstltutionaIIty Arg ued
In Supreme Court.
DECISION DELAYED
Not Expected For Several Days
--Johnson, O'Brien, Mar
tin and Burns Spoke
For It.

Philadelphia. April 24.-Argument
On the cJnstitutionality Of the act re-
Gently passed by the legislature and
signed by Governor Stone, reorganiz'
ing the municipal governments Of Sec
ond class cities and which is known
as the "Pittsburg ripper BILL" was
heard in the supreme court.
For the remonstrants were arrayed
John G.. johnson. Of this city; Joseph
H. O'Brien, M. J. Martin and T. Fl.
Burns, OF Scranton, against Richard
G. Dale. of this city; former Judge II.
A. Knapp. James H. Torrey and A. A.
Vosburg, of Scranton, who supported
the legality of the bill.
Argument was opened by Mr..
Burns, who characterized the act as
an iniquitous measure Points raised
by Mr.. Burns were that Scranton was
not a city of the second class until
April /, about three weeks after the
ripper bill passed, and that Its provis.
ions were not designed to apply to
Scranton, but only to Pittsburg and
Allegheny; that denying the citizen
the right to elect his own governing
officers was unconstitutional as abol
ishing free suffrage would; that the
bill was special legislation, inasmuch
as 1t rests the appointive power with
the present governor, and after his
term expires the Offices will become
elective again, and as special legis
lation 1t could not apply to officers
created under general act, and that
the act Is un-republican in form and
substance, a fraud upon the people
and not within the proper scope and
power Of legislation, it being for the
benefit and advantage of a partisan
faction and not for the good of the
people.
r. c. Dale argued from the stand
point of the powers placed in the leg
islature by the people. He said there
was no question of corrupt and per
nicious legislation to be argued; II
was simply class legislation. He de-
clared that the power Of the legisla
ture was absolute.
He cited the board Of city trusts
and the board of education Of Phila
delphla as instances of appOintive
municipal government, and argued
that there was no question as to the
constitutionality OF those bodies, and
II IT was constitutional for judges tc
appoint governing bodies for cities
OF the first, second or third class. Il
was also legal for the governor to dc
the same when empowered by the law
making body OF the state.
John G. johnson characterized the
bill as the most dangerous kind OF
legislation that could be enacted
and said that there was no right tbat
gave the legislator for the people the
revolutionary power that the rippe,
bill proclaimed.
The decision is not expected foI
several days.
