HELD FOR MURDER
OF JAMES WINSTON
Hearing Last Evening in the Case Of
the Men Brought Back from
Hoboken.

The hearing in the case Of Harry
Simroth, Harry Zhubah. Thomas Pris-
tosh, Stephen Frenchko and Peter kro-
minski the men charged with the mur-
der of James winston, was held yes
terday afternoon in the Office of Alder
man Davis, in West Scranton.
All of the prisoners, except Kromin-
ski, were positively identified, and the
alderman considered the evidence suf-
ficient to hold him, with the others,
without bail for their appearance at
court.
Attorneys II. l.. Taylor, John j. Mur-
ply and George Horn appeared for the
defendants, and District Attorney w.
r. Lewis, Joseph OBren and Robert
j. Murray for the commonwealth and
Delaware and Hudson company. $. j.
Lewis. son-in-law of the murdered
man; Mrs. Louise Doyle, William Doyle
and David Lewis were the witnesses
sworn.
S. j. Lewis positively identified SIM
roth, and Doyle identified Pristosh as
the man who ran away after the at
tack on Winston was made. Zhubah
and Frenchko were identified as the
men who occupied the house where the
men came from and made the attack.
Three of the men identified had pur-
chased return tickets from Moscow, but
the other two only bought tickets one
way. Coroner Saltry testified to the ex-
tent of Winston's injuries and the
cause of his death. Counsel for Kro-
minski asked for his discharge on the
failure of the witnesses to identify him.
but the fact that he had purchased
transportation one way and left with
the others was deemed sufficient by the
alderman to hold him with the others.

cSteTtdy WAS tile llSl uds vi 'iiS
last calendar month in The Tribune's
Educational Contest, and it started Off
with considerable vigor. Forty-seven
points were scored, as follows:
Fred *. Gunster.... .....SO
William Sherwood ................
A. j. Kellerman. Observation-Disclosures.
l.. l.. stanton. ........ ..............
Mr.. Gunsters thirty points give him
a good start for the special honor prize
offered to the contestant scoring the
largest number of points by Saturday
evening, October IL, and also puts him
up another place among the leaders.
He now occupies seventh place. having
passed Albert Freedman, of Bellevue
and leading that young man by two
points. This was the only change in
the table.
Yesterday was the last day in which
new entries were allowed, but none
We're received, Lewis Bates being the
last to enter, just two weeks ago. In
all an even hundred entered the con-
test. but forty-nne of these are now
debarred from entering points and from
now on the contest will be confined to
the fifty-one that have scored.
Changes of Month.
1t is interesting to note the number
of changes that took place among the
contestants during the month of Sep
tember. Only eight out of the leading
thirty-three retain the positions they
had at the beginning of the month. ten
others are occupying advanced places,
while the remaining fifteen have been
obliged to drop back
hn aio oh hat IA n
four occupy the first four places. Oscar
III. kpp, of Elmhurst, occupied third
place for one day early in the month,
but was Obliged to drop back the fol-
lowing<day. The four others who still
hold their places are Herbert Thomp-
son, of Carbondale, sixth: Fred X.
Gunster, OF Green Ridge, eighth; Miss
Edna Coleman, of Scranton, twenty
fifth, and Miss Mary Yeaser, of Green
Ridge, twenty-ninth. From September
II to 20 Mr.. Thompson was in fifth
place.
or the ten advances made, the most
important were by two contestants high
up in the table William Sherwood, of
Hartford, Went from seventh to fifth
place, and j. A. Havenstrite, of Mos
COW, from thirteenth to ninth. These
were more important than some who
passed Il larger number of contestants,
because it required so many points to
accomplish the change. OF the eight
others there are four who were not in
the table at the beginning of the month:
Don q. Capwell, of Scranton, who ad-
vanced seventeen places and is now
eighteenth; Lewis Bates, of Scranton,
thirty places, twenty-frst; A. l., Clark,
of Green Grove, nineteen places, twenty

places, third. The other four
who advanced are: Harry Madden,
Scranton, one place, thirteenth; Miss
Beatrice Harpur, Thompson, two, fif-
teenth; Fred Kibler, South Scranton,
seven, twentieth; Louis Gere, Brooklyn,
three, twenty-t third.
Among those below thirty-third place
there is only one that has advanced In
position during the month-Henry Il.
Collins, of Kizers--who went Zip six
places and is now thirty-sixth. Mr.. Col
lins will evidently soon be in the table.
Who Is to drop back?
or the remaining seventeen contest
ants only one succeeded in scoring,
Newton Hawley, of Green Ridge, who
brought in four points during the
month. 1t 10 still possible that Mr..
Hawley may get into the table, but the
others seem to have become discour-

OAK OR SQUASHP
Scranton Business College.

When prospective students ask if
they can't take short courses. we feel
like saying what the president of
Oberlin college said to Il young man
who asked a similar question. His re-
ply was: well, that depends upon
what you want to make of yourself
When God wants an oak, He takes 100
years; when He wants a squash, He
takes six months" We can do much
for you in a short time, but we can do
more for you If you will complete a
course. We could arrange course
that any ordinary individual could
complete in about three months. but
what would it amount to? There have
been schools which offered to trans
form any ordinary person into book
keeper or stenographer in from to .
months. Happily such schools (?) are
now scarce. Buck & Whitmorc.

The Millinery Opening at Jonas
LONGS Sons.

We never had such Il successful open
ing-never heard so many favorable
comments about our Trimmed Millin-
cry. This remark was made to the
writer by member of the firm last
evening The scene was certainly an
enhancing one-the Millinery Parlors
Uhe handsomest you'll find anywhere)
was prettily decorated with autumn
foliage which nature so richly adorned
with many rare and lovely tints. The
electric lights-the mirrors on every
hand, and such a superb aggregation
of the latest conceits in Fall Headwear,
taking all together it was a sight that
will live long after the opening days
are over. Paris fashions. the models so
universally adopted by the most criti-
cal of judges of feminine tastes. But
these ideas augmented by the excellent
taste and skill of their own milliners
make collection never eXcelled and
hard to equal even in our very largest
cities. The trimming this season are
very unique and different from those
used other seasons. This perhaps Is
one OF the reasons why this millinery
opening is one of unusual interest.
Every taste and desire can be gratified
in this collection of millinery, and
| those who have not witnessed this dis
play of yesterday should certainly not
fail to do so today and tomorrow. In
addition, right next to the Millinery
Parlors. you'll find the Cloak, Suit and
Fur department, replete with all the
latest novelties for fall costuming. This
department is under excellent manage
ment and the display is a credit to the
big store.

ENDLESS NIGHTS
The Experience of a Woman Who
Could not Sleep.

To lie awake and count the hours, with
never wink of sleep, or at most only a
fitful doze, till it is time to get up-most
people have gone through the experience
once in while. But to have it keep up
night after night-then it is wearing
and, in the end, will undermine the
strongest constitution and reduce the
vitality to low ebb.
Sleeplessness has always something Of
disease or undue excitement in it. The
excessive use of tea, coffee, tobacco, or
any narcotic, may bring it on. In such
cases, if the patient stop the use of, or
use more moderately, those stimulants,
he can overcome the trouble. 1t may
come, too, from dyspepsia, general run
down condition of the system, from dis
ease or insufficient nutrition, feverish
excitement, too much blood in the head,
etc. In these latter cases a medicine that
will feed the nerves and build up and
purify the blood, like DR.. Williams Pink
Pills for Pale People is recommended.
That this medicine will accomplish a
cure in such cases has been proven in
thousands of instances. One of them is
that of Mrs. Carrie A. Roberts, of No.
Melville street, Augusta, Me-, who was
at one time sufferer from insomnia and
nervousness but was permanently cured
by DR.. Williams Pink Pills for Pale
People. She says:
81 was very nervous and could not
sleep. had headache great deal and
my health was run down in general.
For three months I was not able to dc
any work.
81 tried other remedies but they gave
me no benefit. But one day one of my
neighbors recommended me to try DR.
Williams Pink Pills for Pale People and
l began using them. I took part of q
box and saw that l was receiving benefit
and, after taking four boxes, enjoyed
better health than I had for a long time
found the pills We're all that they were
recommended to be and now am sleep
ing we'll and feeling WELL
DR.. Williams Pink Pills for Pale
People are sold oily in boxes at fifty
cents box or six boxes for two dollars
and fifty cents, and may be had of all
druggists, or direct by mail from DIR.

LESSON THOUGHTS.
1t is true of church fellowship as of
every other organization of effort that
Sin union there is strength" A thous-
and men united are worth more than ten
thousand working independently. For
this reason armies are formed, manufac-
turing industries are established, and
populations centralize into cities. For
the same reason Christian fellowship
adds strength to the church.
One great value of Christian fellowship
results from the fact that there are
diversities of gifts" While one builds
the other guards; Christian fellowship
affords opportunity for the ustfu exercise
| of all our various talents.
SELECTIONS.
A pious man of rank was in the habit
of associating intimately with pious
poor people. A worldly friend OF his raj
lied him on the subject of his associates,
and expressed his surprise. The noble
Christian man replied, that, as he could
hardly hope to enjoy so elevated rank
as they in a future world, he knew not
why he should despise them in the
present.
Bishop Warren tells the following story
of himself When his company was
ordered into battle for the first time and
they approached the scene OF the conflict
dread came over him, and his knees
shook bene ath him. Marching next to
him was a gigantic Irishmap, and the
Bishop said it was great comfort to
him just to look up into his face. When.
ever he felt his courage failing him, he
would rub up against his bnrly com
panion, and the touch of that firm, broad
shoulder filled him with new strength
and courage. Such is the strength the
Christian receives from the sense of fel
lowship with Christ and his followers.
SUGGESTED HYMNS.
Blest be the tie that binds.
Onward, Christian soldiers.
Rejoice! ye saints, again rejoice.
love thy kingdom, Lord.
Press on, press on, o pilgrim.
The Lord keep watch etween us.
