A SPIRITED CONTEST.
Being Waged Among Members of
Daughters of Rebekah for Lodge
Decoration.

There is quite spirited contest
among the members Of Lucretia lodge,
Daughters of Rebekah, for the choice
for the degree of chivalry, which will
he conferred at Lake Lodore on odd
Fellows day. on August Q,
This decoration is the highest that
can be conferred on the members Of
the lodge, and this accounts for the
spirit of rivalry that marks the con-
test. All of the members of Rebekah
lodge are qualified to receive the de-
gree, but as the lodge is entitled to hut
two candidates the choice must be de-
cided by vote. The hustling after these
votes has stirred the members for sew
eral weeks, and tonight the balloting
will take place. The keenest interest
has been shown, and tonight's meeting
will no doubt be marked by the largest
attendance in months.
The comforting of the degree will be
a big event among the Odd Fellows of
this section, and all of the prominent
workers of the order will be at Lake
Lodore on that day. The staff officers
of the state will officiate.

MEMBERSHIP GROWING.
The Carbondale Cycle Club Gains
Accessions at Each Meeting Band
Concerts Proposed for the Summer
Eveninps

The new vitality with which the
Carbondale cycle club was endowed
this spring is beginning TO manifest
itself, and the organization is as big
factor in the social life of Carbon
dale as the Scranton Bicycle club in
the Electric City, which is saying
good deal
The signs of the increased interest
in the club are especially shown in
the continued accessions that are
made to the clubs membership. The
activity of the members In the clubs
doings has been the means of attract
ing to the interesting phase of club
life that the organization offers and
there has not been meeting since the
recent election of officers at which
there has not been four or five ap-
plcations for membership to be acted
upon. Tonight the club meets. and
there are a half-dozen applications
awaiting action. For this reason the
members are urged to attend.
The lecture course, which was in
stituted by President Kimball, the
clubs energetic and progressive chief
officer, has been attended with splen-
did results. and it has probably been
chief among the means to which the
wider interest in the club can be
credited. These lectures and other en-
tertainments will be continued
throughout the summer and autumn.
The band concerts, which We're SO
pleasant and popular last summer,
will probably he repeated this year,
before the warm weather ends. The
club is considering this proposition
now. and it Is likely that the public
will participate in the benefits of the
public spirit of the club before the
| summer Is over.

The MAYORS VETO.
Councils Did Not Heed His Message
with Reference to the Lighting
Contract and Did Not Meet in
Joint Session.

Councils did not seem to heed the
message of Mayor Fitzpatrick which
contained his veto of the resolution
awarding the three years lighting
contract to the Lackawanna Valley
company, for there was no joint ses-
sion last night to consider his veto.
In vetoing a measure. the mayor,
by the act of 1889. is directed to so
inform councils and to call them in
special session to consider his veto.
Since councils did not heed the
mayors message and elected to re-
main away, ii would seem that his
veto would be effective and that the
contract has been set aside.
What. If any. action the councils
will take with reference to the light
ing contract, none of the Councilmen
would indicate last night. There we're
enough of the CounCilmen in ami about
the city hall to have a meeting Of
both bodies. but there was a marked
apathy shown.
