THE PAVING SQUABBLE.
Action by City to Recover Number
of Unpaid Paving Assessments.

Another phase developed in the
sQuabble over the paving of Park
Place, Sixth avenue. Eighth avenue and
lower Main street when Il dozen prop
ertv owners along these improvements
were served with notices of an action
in assumpSit to recover unpaid assess
ments for the pave laid along these
thOroushfares.
The action was commenced Monday
afternoon by city Solicitor Stuart in
behalf of the city. Those affected
are the property owners who claim
that they are not liable on the ground
that the legiSla ton directing the i'm
provement was Illegal in all its parts
Counsel has been engaged to defend
against the suits and had been in
structed by tie affected property own
els to carry the Woceedin" to the SUI
preme court, if necessary, to test the
city's right to collect the assessments
for the pavement that was laid against
the wishes of most of the owners along
the line of the improvement. All but
twelve or thirteen had paid their share
of the cost of the Improvement and it
is these who propose to contest the
Clty'S claims.
The history Of the Squabble goes back
to lS9S. when there was Il remonStrance
against the Improvement. Then there
was difficulty over the filing OF liens
against the properties This was rem
edied by special act of the legislature
Now that there are no liens against the
properties, it was found necessary to
begin an action in assumpsit in each
case to collect the unpaid assessments
the same as with an ordinary debt.

from ovcrWork or other causes. the
nerves are burdened beyond endurance.
nerve waste is not replaced, nerve
force is weakened, then the stomach
loses its neiNe-controiline power and
indigestion follows, with failing
strength. When first DR.. A, w. Chase's
Nerve Pills came to Scranton people
could hardly he convinced that this
great medicine would remove these
troubles. Now ii is-an accepted fact.
because of their cure of very stubborn
cases no other medicine would iniu-
