time and Keller paid bills for him. The
fundamental dispute in the case is as
to whether Hurst was to be paid ~
per day o. $1.75. The plaintiff alleges

ORDER REVOKED.
Rag. Dealers May Now Purchase
Rags from Whom They Please.

On Jan. 20 shortly after the out
break of smallpox in West Scranton

all kinds to refuse to accept the same

Appeal by School District.

The school district of Fell township
yesterday took appeals from the judg-
ment of Alderman S. s. Jones in the
suits brought against the district by
Miss Agnes Farrell and Miss Mary
Lally.
Both are teachers in one of the Fell
township schools and for two months
did not have employment because the
school building had been destroyed by
fire. They sue for the time they were
idle. Their claims were $S4 apiece and
the interest ran the amount up to s97,O3.
Alderman Jones gave Judgment for the
full amount of the claim, and from
this an appeal is taken.

chase for 75c the only remedy universally
known and a remedy that has had the
largest sale of any medicine In the world

Consumption and Throat and Lung trou-
bles without losing Its great popularity all
these years, you will be thankful we call
ed your attention to Boschee's German
Syrup. There are so many ordinary
cough remedies made by druggists and
others that are cheap and good for light
colds perhaps. but for severe Coughs,
Bronchitis. Croup-and especially for Con-

Paine's Celery
Compound
Is Daily Saving Precious Lives
After Pronounced Failures
Of Physicians.

The months just passed of the present
year have brought bereavement and dark
clouds of sorrow to many homes in our
land Fathers, mothers, sisters, and
brothers have been forever removed by
the grim reaper, death. The large ma
jority of such could have been saved had
their friends given them Paine's Celery
Compound, instead of the worthless medi-
cines the sick ones were forced to swal-
low.
In many families too slavish obedi
ence to medical dictation kept the true
life saver from the sick and dying ones
Past records of marvellous cures ant
victories wrought by Paine's Celery Com
pound were ignored by medical men; in a
word. it was unprofessional in their esti-
nation to introduce the life giving Com
pound
All, Remorse is now doing its quiet but
effective work, and those most closely
interested are suffering for their neglect
VIII you, dear reader, allow some
dear relative or friend to pass from life
without making an effort to save the per-
ishing one by Paine's Celery Compound ?
Inc virtues ana powers OF Dr. Phelps
prescription are wonderfully far reaching
and mighty. Even though your friends
have suffered long. and have come to that
point where the physician is helpless to
save, even then, there Is a blessed hope
If Paine's Celery Compound is used
Tn desperate cases cured in the past
and the number of precious lives saved,
is the bright, the living proof. that Paine's
Celery Compound makes sick people well

The Tramp's Parlor Car.

A casual observer might wonder why
the rods. bolted through the timbers at
either end. are placed under freight cars,
says Cloudesley Johns, writing ON the
philosophy of the Road in Leslie
Monthly for May. They are not put there
for hoboes to ride, but to stiffen the floor
of the car. Sometimes there are four-two
close together on each side,-but more
often there are six, separated by equa'
distances. At the center, where the rods
are ridden. there is often room between
them and the bottom of the car for man
to sit almost upright, though with his
head bowed forward but where there are
six the hobo usually lies across them like
a steak on a gridiron While the train is
moving slowly 1t is easy. as a rule, to
drive him off by throwing coal or rocks at
him; If 1t is going very fast there is dan
ger of killing him, and that is likely tc
get the brakeman into trouble from ten
way of removing a hobo from the rods un-
der a freight, but the brakeman must be
man of steady nerve. quickness and
physical strength; also he must know ex-
actly where the hobo is before he comes
off the top TO get him. Dropping from the
train a car or two ahead of the one un-
der which the man is riding, the brake
man has time to brace himself before that
car reaches him (the train should be NOV
ing slowly; then he seizes the hobo by
the coat collar or by his arms; the mo-
tion of the train does the rest, and the
hobo is dropped on the ground But If
the train is going at, say, a twenty emile
rate, this is impossible.

OREGON BORAX WORKS.
Mining Journal Describes the Rose Valley
Company's Property.


The Engineering and Mining Journal of
4 recent date contained the following ar
ticle descriptive of the Rose valley borax
works, owned by ]. NJ. Fulton and c. l..
Taylor of Reno:
Borax has been mined from barate
marsh deposit in Harney county, south
eastern Oregon for five years past. The
deposit covers some 10000 acres of low
land lying Immediately below lake Alvord
With the present transportation facilities
not more than 25 per cent of this area is
capable of yielding ore of sufficient high
grade to pay for the working. The rich
est portion of the deposit, consisting Of
some two thousand acres lies close to the
lake and is owned by the Rose Valley
Borax Co. of Reno, Nevada.
geographically this area is perfectly
level and treeless. The ground is covered
with white incrustation several inches
thick of borate of soda containing sodium
carbonate, sodium sulphate, sodium
chloride, ETC.. in varing proportions. Dur
ing the long dry summers of that region
the loose dry deposit is carefully shoveled
by hand into small conical mounds or
heaps set in regular rows and resembling
a hay field In harvest time. After re-
moving the original incrustation borates
are quickly formed and in a comparative
y short time second incrustation covers
the ground. II is claimed that this pro
cess will continue indefinitely and the
supply is therefore inexhaustible.
Since no mining is done in the winter
sufficient material must be gathered In
the summer months to supply the full
capacity of the refining works which oper-
ate continually summer and winter. The
crude material carries from to 20 per
cent boric acid.
i The refining process Is one of simple
determination. The crude material is
thrown into tanks of boiling water into
which chlorine or Sutphuricf acid Is IN
troduced. In this heated solution the salts
& are readily dissolved and the boric acid
liberated The hot solution Is allowed
No remain in the tanks twenty -four hours,
after which the clear supernatant fluid is
run off into tanks where 1t is allowed to
remain until cool. where white pearly
scales are formed, which are washed with
cold water before they are removed from
the tanks. The mother solution is reused
until sufficient salt has accumulated for
separation.
A superior quality of boric acid is pro-
duced which commands the highest mar
ket price. The annual output of the Or
egon borax works is 400 tons of refined bo-
rax. This is shipped by mule team
distance of 1870 miles to Winnemucca, Me-
vada. whence II Is shipped to Chicago and
st. Louis. Occasional shipments are made
to San Francisco
