DIR. ]. V. Calf, ex-Surgeou of the S P.
Railroad. says:--"Men like Sampson,
Davis and Me' huselah owed much oil
their strength, vigor and longevity to
the climate which permitted them to
sleep in tents and lead an out-oi-door
life. The question of environment is OF
first importance in the treatment of tub

illustrated by experiments performed up
on rabbits which were inoculnted with

others allowed to run wild either recov-

is the same in human tuberculosis. A

WAS STRUCK BY TRAIN.
Frank Harmon, Of Dickson City,
Killed on D. & II. Road.

Frank Harmon, of Dickson City, was
struck by a Delaware and Hudson
train near the Marvine mine at l.SO
o'clock yesterday afternoon and SO Sc
riously injured that he died from his
injuries soon afterwards. His skull
was crushed in, several ribs were frac-
tured and there were other injuries
about the body.

the noises of coal train on the

train on the south bound tracks. He
stepped from out of the way OF the
coal train directly in front of the pass
enger and was struck. A.,.-
when picked UP he was gasping for
breath and life was practically extinct.
He was brought to Scranton on the
train where the Lackawanna hospital
ambulance took him in charge. He
died while on the way to the hospital.
The remains were later removed to
Undertaken Cusick's establishment on
Washington avenue. Coroner Roberts
viewed the body and decided that an
inquest was unnecessary.

"a Free Lance"

There is no character, probably, that appeals
as iorciby TO theatergocrs of every class as that
of the hero who is really hero, the gallant
knight OF the old romantic days, handsome, val
orous and daring, ever ready for joust and
wishing any danger for the sake Of his lady love
This is a character that quickens the pulse Of
even the most bias. and calls forth the aspiration
OF the gentlcr sex. All the world looks up to
this sort OF man, tie finest type that history re-
veals. In the portrayal OF such characters Robert
b. Mantell stands foremost and alone. lie has
won his position by a succession Of splendid per-
formances in which great dramatic ability have
been combined with a fine physique and mag
netic personality.
1t is the opinion Of Mr.. Mantell and his man.
ager, NJ w. Hanley, that "a Free Lance" the
new play that he is presenting this season, gives
him the best role he has yet had. The play
deals with Germany in medieval times and is
both original and strong in story. 1t is mounted
lavishly, the scenery and costumes being of re.
markabe magnifcence. At the Lyceum this at.
ternoon and night.

PROF. COLES FOR FEBRUARY.

From Storms and sigrs.
We wish to return thanks for the
many complimentary notices we have
received from the press relative to our
January predictions fulfilled. Old Red
Warrior Mars certainly did make
things lively 70 this mundane sphere;
and, he will continue to annoy and af-
fiict us during the current month; also
during the month Of March; and we
shall be fortunate indeed If we escape
national calamity. Earth will pass
directly between Mars and the Sun on
the 21st inst, and will cause an eclipse
on Mars-but don't tell Tesla. AS Mars
is passing through Sign Virgo, which
rules Turkey in Asia and Europe,
Switzerland and the West Indies, we
may look for great affliction in these
countries. Mars can be seen in the
eastern horizon at bedtime shining out
like a bright red light, shining with a
steady light which distinguishes 1t
from the fixed stars. Mars in Virgo
makes men very hasty irritable, often
deceitful and revengeful; quite original
in nature, and full of bold and scien-
titic enterprises; and causes many dis
eases of the stomach and the bowels.
THE STORMS AND SIGNS.
Great sunspots have been forming
over the face of the Sun during the
past three months, causing the suns
rays to shine with doubled force in
many sections of the country, result
ing in summer-like weather; while
other sections were in the throes Of
bliZZards and hurricanes for the want
of these stray rays We have reasons
10 believe that there will be two or
three breaks in these sun spots during
the current month, and will cause de-
structive storms. The first break we
believe will occur some time between
the Sd and 18th: and the second be-
tween the 18th and 25th. These sun
spots will cause phenomenal weather
both In America and in the Old Coun-
try. If these breaks do not appear, and
the sun spots still continue to increase
I'm size, they will cause a widespread
and destructive storm TO sweep over
land and sea, a storm that will do un-
told damage and cause the loss of
many lives. Let sailors take warning.
The southern states will be in danger
of a blizzard.
COMING EVENTS.
Another large comet Is headed for
earth, and will be sighted by the big
telescopes sometime during the current
month, or in the month of March.
Watch out for brilliant northern lights,
as the sunrays, on account of the sun
| spots, will be doubled In that direction.
| Smallpox, skin diseases and stomach
troubles will increase during the cur-
| rent month and cause much alarm. A
| new disease will appear In many Sec
| tions; a cross between the chicken-poX
| and the smallpox; a combination OF
| the Mars-Saturn sort of affiictlon. Ac-
cidents. confiagrations, mine caves,
massacres and crimes OF the darkest
hues will continue to go on under the
| reign Of the old redwarrior, Mars. But

There are more complications to the
local end of the second class city legis-
lation problem about due. A number
Of the members of both branches of
councils have decided that the amend
ments to the ripper bill prepared by
the councilmanic committee should be
approved by councils before being pre-
sented to the legislature and with this
end in view special meetings of both
branches are being planned for next
Monday night.
President Calpin. of the common
council stated yesterday to a Tribune
man that five members of that branch
had signed a call for a meeting on
Monday night and that he would is.
sue the call for the meeting today.
He further stated that a movement
was on foot to have a special meet
ing of the select council called for
that night also.
II don't believe" said Mr. Calpin,
that this legislative committee has
any right or power to go ahead ana
prepare these amendments without re-
porting them back to councils before
they are introduced in the legislature.
! don't think that the resolution pro-
Viding for their appointment gave
them any such power or implied any
such power.
Senator Vaughan, who left this
morning for Harrisburg, has given me
to understand that he will not feel
himself bound to support the commit
tees amendments unless they receive
the approval of councils, and for that
reason deem it absolutely necessary
to have them considered by councils"

VALUABLE INFORMATION.

The best days to perform surgical
operations during the current month
will be the Goth, 23d and 2Sth; and the
next best days will be the 1st, 9th. 10th,
11th, 18th, 10th and 19th. If physicians
and surgeons would famlliarize them
selves with this subject they would
save many lives and much needless
suffering. Never perform a surgical
operation when the moon is passing
through the sign in which the subject
was born. Wednesday, the goth, will
be a good strong day for all those born
in Sign Pisces; the best day of the
whole month to begin any new under
taking. The best days to kill pork,
beef, etc, will be the Goth, 2lst and 22d,
23r, 25th and 2Sth; and the next best
days will be the 1st, I'd and 1lth. Do
not kill at any time between the 2d
and 9TH as the flesh of all animal kind
will be undergoing a change at that
time, and will not be in proper condi-
ton to be eaten by man. For when to

to have amendments adopted giving

Before the announcement of the pro-
posed calling of these special meetings,

tually agreed to go down to Harris

municipalities. Mr.. Chittenden, who
was opposed TO the idea at first, was
won over yesterday morning by City
Solicitor Vosburg and one or two of
the other members who favor the plan,
Mr.. Vosburg's contention Is that
Scranton should be as we'll represented
at the hearing as either Pittsburg or
Allegheny, and that it would not be
advisable to send just himself down.
He believes that If there was not q
decent-sized delegation representing

committee might be led to believe that

no reason to kick.
"The hearing on the ripper" bill Is
to be next Wednesday, and we've got
to agree on something before then.
You can say that the members of the
committee will fight for their amend
ments to a finish, If they are brought
up in councils. i hope they won't be,

tai to the best interests of this city
