It is true the most annoying symptoms
like stoppage of the nose and throat
trouble, are purely local, but they are
simply symptoms and the real seat OF dls-
ease is far removed.
Catarrh is a constitutional disease,
blood disorder complicated usually with
disease OF the liver, and to suppose that
local applications of sprays, powders, in
halers. could ever reach the real cause OF
the trouble is ridiculous.
The sensible and successful treatment
is to remove the catarrhal poison from sne
system by regulating the liver and purify
ing the blood and this can only be done
by an internal remedy, which should con-
sist of antiseptics and remedies 10 act
vigorously on the b.ood and liver
The best preparation of this kind Which
fills all the requirements of a safe con-
stitutional treatment is Stuart.s CataTrn
Tablets, composed of Blood Root, lied
which are absolutely safe to take INTO
the stomach and which act upon the iiVe',
..tomach and mucous membrane
.Stuart's Catarrh Tablets are large
pleasant tasting lozenges 10 be slowly q 3
solved in the mouth, thus reaching the
mucous membrane and windpipe and
finally reaching the stomach.
DR.. Edmondson, in speaking OF the new
treatment for catarrh, says:-"I have ac-
complished the most satisfactory results
in all forms of catarrh OF the head,
throat bronchial tubes, as well as catarrii
of the stomach and liver by using MOTH
ing else but Stuart's Catarrh Tablets.
long since threw aside sprays and inhalers
as being inconvenient and at the best
mere temporary make-shifts.
"Stuart's Catarrh Tablets act immedi-
ately upon the liver and blood and clear
the whole system of catarrhal poison.
They are pleasant and very convenient
to use, and they are not only the latest,
but l believe them to be the best and
certainly the safest treatment for any
form of catarrh.''

items were for the street department In
addition TO this Justification of the water
account attention should be called to the
fact that men paid out of the water mon
ey are employed at this point working UP
these supplies into implements for the
street department.
These claims are recommended to your
attention for whatever action may De
considered necessary.
Claim No. 256, A. e. Nolan, for metered
water bills. ETC., Water Assessor, $46
This bill contains the following items:-
Il gross Of Dixon's Polptechnic PEN
ellis, No. 1,os2, No. 2................. 50 Is
100 pads Of linen paper to ordera;; .I.,;. oo
$500 monthly metered water biils,
printed and ruled in pads. two
eolors ..,.--.,.,.......' "a oo oo
$500 quarterly ditto..... "a W
! map book, bound and indexed,-.. %
s4s 90
The pencils may be bought from the
Dixon Company for s4.e9 per gross, the
above item probably showing the profit OF
a jobber as well as that of the claimant.
The pads of linen paper, to order,
were not ito order" as the requisition
did not call for pads to be made from old
iedgers cut up into 6-inch squares. The
paper furnished is not linen. The two
pads shown to me were of about 40 sheets
each. Two cents would be an ample
charge for each article, or $500 for the 1oo-
I showed a sample of the next two items
to Mr.. Hinners, "a practical printer of this
city, and was informed that he would be
glad to furnish these supplies in the same
form at $500 per item, or a total OF SIS,
as against the s2S here charged.
The charge for the map book, bound
and indexed," is not fair one, as the
book has not yet arrived. The claimant
re-indexed an old map book for the Water
Assessor, for which fifty cents would be
a sufficient compensation
1t is respectfully recommended that this
claim be sent back to the Board of Street
and Water Commissioners for correction.
Claim No 243; Hudson Coal Co., for
stove caol for the Pipe Yard. $3.50:
Fifteen tons of stove coal have been
ordred this winter for the Pip Yard. Half
tn amount would have sufficed. The
claim of the coal company is valid, how
ever, and it is reluctantly recommended
for concurrence.
Claim No. 253; Hudson Coal Co., for
stove coal for Wanye street stables, $3.50:
This discloses another falsification of
the Water account. Coal for the Wayne
street stables has ben paid for out of this
account WIN it should have been divided
with tn Street Account.
1t is respectfully suggested that this
claim be paid out of the Street fund.

Danvllle Wants The Trolley.

Danville wants the trolley, and
from present indications it won't be
very many moons until she will have
it. The building OF line to Danvile
has long been in contemplation, but
owing to the inability of the projectors
to secure the right of way 1t was
dropped. Now fresh hope has sprung
up, and deeper interest is being
manifested. The property owners
living between here and Danville, who
three years ago were antagonistlc to
the enterprise and who relentlessly
opposed the building of the line by
refusing to grant the right of way,
have come over. AS this was the
only barrier with which the company
had to contend, there is nothing
now to retard or hinder an early con-
struction of the road. This extension
will not only bring Bloomsbury and
Danville into closer communication,
but will also be of inestlmable value
to the people living along the line.
The Danville Morning Ne7oS Of Mon
day says in relation to the project:
"During the last few days an effort
has been made to secure the right OF
way between the two towns by new
organization to be known as the Dan
vile g. Bloomsbury Trolley Company.
Four-fifths of the right of way was Sc
cured by the Columbia & Montour
Electric Railway Company which at
present has lines between Blooms
burg, Berwick and other points. The
remaining one fifth of the right ofway
was the toughest of the proposition.
The several farmers VINO stood out
proved unrelentlng in their opposi-
ton to the trolley. Eventually,
whether discouraged or influenced by
some other consideration the com
pany suspended efforts to get the
trolley through. At the end OF a year
the time limit was passed and the
right of way as far as secured was for
feited.
The new company was organized
for the purpose OF reclaiming the
franchises and securing the full right
of way. A promoter of the company
was in this city on Friday, who ex-
pressed himself as we'll pleased with
the headway already made. The right
of way along the greater part of the
line, he said, is practically secured,
minimizing the opposition and assur-
ing the construction of the road. He
assured several persons that the
trolley is thing Of the very near
future; that men of capital are identi-
fed with the project who are deter
mined to push it through, and that
just as soon as matters pertaining to
the right CT way are fully settled work
on the new line will begin"

Shawnee Park Opening.

The Improvements to Shawnee
Park are about completed. To those
who have never visited the Park, a
delightful surprise is in store, while to
those who made frequent visits to 1t
last season there will be many new
and pleasing features. Among them
we might mention, good fishing
ground, swiming pool, croquet
grounds, bowling alley, shooting gal
lery, dancing pavilion and restaurant.
Mr.. Fowler has expended considerable
money and great deal Of time in
fitting up the park and he hopes that
when the picnic season arrives that
our people will not lose sight of the
fact that Shawnee Park right here at
home is just as attractive as those at
distance, and which require the ex-
pending of a lot of money in the way
of car fare to reach.
Shawnee Park will be thrown open
to the public on May goth with a
clam bake and dance. Music will be
furnished by the Grand Opera House
Orchestra of eight pieces under the
direction of Prof. Hover. The Col
umbia & Montour Electric Railway
Company will run cars at brief inter
walls throughout the afternoon and
evening to accommodate all who wish
to visit the Park.

COUNTY FAIRS.
Deputy Secretary Martin Speaks Encourag
ingy Of Them.

Deputy Secretary of Agriculture
Martin says that the general prosperi-
ty attending farm operations in Penn
sylvania the last twelve months has
stimulated and encouraged the county
agricultural societies of the state in
holding their annual fairs. Thirty
nine of the societies holding fairs dur
ing the year 1901 offered a total in
premiums of $I33.3so. Forty-seven
of these societies have one half-mlle
race tracks and seven one-third-mile
tracks.
Mr.. Martin also says that great
improvement has taken place in the
way OF offering premiums for all lines
of live stock, and also the appoint
ment of judges for live stock. Many
of these societies are striving to Sc
cure one expert judge, who is quail
fed and capable to decide upon the
merits of the competing animals or
articles in conformity with established
rules and regulations.
He commends the test of speed on
course and strongly condemns the
practice at some of these tairs of pool
selling and other modes of gambling
near the judges stand. 1.-The agricul-
tural societies Of the state have a
prosperous FUTURE" said Mr.. Martin,
"condltioned upon the principle OF
conducting these exhibitions in such
a manner as to give the greatest en-
couragement to every line of agricul-
tural exhibit, and discouragng what
would seem to be preponderance Of
sdeshows, games of chance, etc,
which tend to lead the minds of the
young away from habits of industry
and sobriety."

Mt. Carmel has taken Wilkes
Barre's place in the State League.
Poor attendance was the cause.
The people didn't care to pay to see
their team lose. Bloomsbury had
a league team some years ago.
They lost games with startling regu-
larity, and the men who backed it
lost money. In fact they only
recently got through paying. Every
now and then you can hear some
one say that professional team
would pay here. But it won't. The
only way that base ball can be con-
Quoted in Bloomsbury with a profit
is to have team that it is absolute
ly impossible to defeat, and the
players perform for nothing, and
even then the balls might have to
be donated.

The STRIKE SITUATION.

There has been no material changes
in the great strike among the coal
miners, and the entire anthracite re-
gicns of Pennsylvania are tied up. 1t
is considered the greatest strike in the
history of the world. $4,000 men
are idle today, as the result of it, and
their families are dependent upon the
treasury of the United Mine Workers
of America, an organization which has
for its object the betterment of their
condition. Just what the end of the
great struggle will be, no one can pre-
dict. The operators are determined
to make no concessions to the de-
mands of the Union, and the men vow
not to touch tool until their wants
are satisfied. THIS is what they are
asking for:
First-A twenty per cent increase
for all men engaged in contract work
Second-A reduction of two hours
a day without loss OF pay, that is an
eight hour day for the present rate of
pay of all men and boys who are EN-
ployed by the hour, day, or week.
Approximately this is an increase in
wages OF twenty per cent all around.
Third-That coal be weighed and
paid for by weight in all the mines
where the physical conditions make it
practicable, this applies chiefly to
those that are known as the Luzerne
and Lackawanna districts.
