OBITUARY..

MRS. JAMES r. LATHROPE, who
| left Carbondale ten years ago, after
a residence here of about twenty years,
| died at her home in New York city on
Thursday night. The end came some
what unexpectedly. Mrs. Lathrope
had been suffering from an attack of
acute pneumonia. but appeared to be
improving. Wednesday, relapse
came that was quickly followed by
death.
Mrs. Lathrope was'beloved by many
friends in this city. among whom she
exerted her gentle influence during her
years of association here. Her loss
will be deeply mourned. Mrs. La
thrope was native of Richmond, Va,
and went with her family to Washing
ton D. c., by reason of the feeling that
arose during the war; She welded
James Lathrope in Washington about
thirty-fve years ago, coming to Car
bondale in 1872, when her husband be-
came cashier of the then newly-organ-
lied Miners and Mechanics bank. I'm
til recently, she was matron of Roose-
welt hospital, in New York city, of
which her husband was superintendent.
Besides Mr.. Lathrope, one daughter,
Mrs. Rothschild, of New York. also
survives.

HEADACHE CHARMED.
It Is the Experience of Scranton Peo-
pie That Proves the Magical Effect
Of Dr.. Chase's Nerve Pills with
Sick and Nervous Headache.

1t has never come to any other medi-
cine never to all medicines = the
abundance of Scranton testimonv
showing the unequaled merit estab-
lished by DR., A. w. Chase's Nerve
Pills. There is probably no case of
nervous sick headache they viii not
cure.
Mrs. James Watson, of No. 3l5
Twelfth street, Scranton, Pa, saws,
"Dr. A. w. Chase's Nerve Pills Are
fine. / began to use them for nervous
sick headaches and nervousness. and
had great success in stopping them
completely. Recently l used them 10
overcome the depression and weak
nesses following grip and they We're
again successful, giving me bodily
strength and nerve steadiness. AS an
all-round nerve and general tonic they
are grand, and l am very much pleased
that my attention was called to them

FOR FIRE ALARM KEYS.
Convenient Boxes to Hold Them
Erected Throughout the City.

The small glass boxes which were
ordered by councils as receptacles for
keys for the fire alarm boxes were put
in place this week.
The convenience which they will pro-
vide VIII be fully appreciated before
they see much service. Their use Will
dispense with the delay that might be
occasioned in the event of Il holder of
one of. the keys. as in the past, not
being at home. or in the event Of Il de-
lay In arousng one in the middle of
the night. The danger of the old
custom was so obvious, 1t would seem
that the wonder is that 1t was not
abolished long ago. 1t was more
through good luck than anything else
that some disaster did not follow in
the wake of the custom that has been
got rid of with the Introduction Of
the new boxes. The keys now hang in
the glass-front box. beside the alarm
box. and can be gotten at once in the
case of fire.
The Tribune agitated this new plan
only it suggested the same style Of
box as that now in use in Scranton.
BY the scheme in vogue there. the key
Is kept in the key hole of the alarm
box all the time and cannot be re-
moved by any one except the CHIEF or
his assistants. small metal box,
with a glas front. the box being not
more than two inches square, covers
the key. When one wishes to turn in
an alarm. he breaks the small thin
piece of glass. which exposes the key.
The key is then turned and the box
is opened.
To Councilman John Evans, Of the
Sixth ward, however. Is due the credit
for the adoption of the plan which has
just been given it's trial. He introduce
ed the resolution providing for the
boxes and persevered until it was
adopted by both branches of council
The wisdom of the resolution will be
amply justified before long.
Mr.. Evans. it might be of interest to
mention was impelled to the step lead
ing to the introduction Of the resolu-
ton by personal experience the night
of firemen's day during the sem-cen-
teninal celebration. Some one. want
ed to procure the fire alarm key
which was kept in his house. The
stranger had considerable difficulty in
making his wish known to Mr.. Evans,
who had retired for the night. The
delay that was experienced impressed
Mr.. Evans with the necessity for a
change from that plan of distributing
keys among private residences. The
Introduction of the resolution followed
soon afterWard

TWAS RECORD TIME.
Response Made by Mitchell Team in
Trial Wednesday Night.

The members of the Mitchell Hose
company are discussing with interest
and satisfaction the record which was
made in hitching the team on Wednes-
day night, sbefore the guests at the
banquet, who repaired from the hall to
the quarters to witness the exhibition.
Two tests We're made, one while the
men We're down stairs, the other when
they We're in the bunk room. From the
time the tap was sounded in the first
instance until the horses were hitched
and the driver had the reins in hand,
it was 1914 seconds. The men then
went up stairs. The tap was sent in
once more. There was scramble for
the sliding pole, and in an instant eag
err hands We're hitching the team. In
22A seconds, the horses were ready for
an alarm. The members are exceed
ingly proud and they have right, too,
over the splendid record.
The guests who made up the delega-
tion marveled at the work and heartily
congratulated the wide-a-wake Mitch
ell boys.

previous experience with other tonics

My wife has taken them with great
benefit and she believes in them as
