THROWN FROM BUGGY,
w. II. Pierce Was Seriously Injured
On Nay Aug Boulevard Yester-
day Afternoon.

William H. Pierce, the we'll known
Penn avenue marketman, was thrown
from his carriage while driving down
the Nay Aug boulevard yesterday af-
ternoon. and received injuries Of a
very serious nature. He was still un-
conscious early this morning, and ow-
Ing to this, his attending physician, DR..
j. w. Coolidge. was unable to definitely
state the extent of Mr.. Pierces injuries.
Charles Bradley, of New York, a
nephew of Mr.. Pierce, was also thrown
from the carriage, but was only slight
ly bruised by the fall. The accident
occurred about $50 o'clock. The two
men had attended the Speedway races,
and were driving home, when they
met their mishap.
Their horse was going along at a
lively clip, and in making a sharp turn,
a short distance below the race track,
fell and upset the carriage. Mr.. Pierce
was thrown to the ground with fearful
force, and when Mr.. Bradley who
quickly recovered from his own fall,
ran to his assistance he found his un-
Gle unconscious. The horse was unin-
jured, and the buggy was not in the
least damaged.
Mr.. Pierce was removed to his home,
633 Jefferson avenue, in the carriage Of
DR.. Hill, who providently passed at this
time. pr. j. w. Collidge was sum-
moned, and could find no serious in
jures, except small hole at the top
of the head.
He declared last nigh, that Mr.. Pierce
might either remain unconscious for an
indifinite period or suddenly awaken
at any moment. He was present at the
beside Of the patient during the great
er part of the night and morning.

ST. 1uKEs SUMMER HOME.
The Cresco Mountain Rest for Poor
Women and Children.

On Tuesday, July s, the beautiful
Summer Home at Cresco, for invalided
women and little ones in need of rest,
change and fresh country air who
could not otherwise have such blessings,
will again open it's doors for the sea-
son. The Mems guild of st. Luke's
church has added many improvements
to it during the past year. Each year
has seen additions and improvements.
The latest include an ice house and
cold storage room, bath room, with
hot end cold water, and constant
SUI ply of delicious spring water.
The number of beneficiaries in each
preceding summer has been over 300.
The present prospect is that a larger
number than has ever before been re-
ceived in one season will need the bene-
fits OF this summer rest and health
giving vacation. That there has never
been. never will be, any distinction as
to religious utilization or to nationality,
has been we'll understood by all Scran-
ton from the very first. Therefore, the
committee of the Mems guild, in charge
of the Home, and the members of the
Women's guild, associated with that
committee in practical oversight of the
Home, appeal earnestly, and with
great confidence, to all who have here
tofore aided the Home, and all others
intere sted in such noble and efficient
work. to contribute literally. The in
creased cost of many necessaries of life
is known to every householder. TO
give the benefits of the Home in fair
measure to as many as surely will need
ii and should have their turn there, the
committee will need about one thous-
and dollars. Divide that amount
among very many more than three
hundred beneficiares, and it can be
readily seen that there is no waste in
administration.
Whatever is given in the line of flour
and other staples, it should be remem-
bered that the daily supply of fresh
meat, vegetables, fruit, butter and milk
must be bought on the mountain, and
there paid for--that money donations
are especially needful.
These should be sent to the Mems
guild treasurer Mr. w. M. Bunnell,
Mears building.

FOOD SUPPLY is ALL RIGHT.
That's What Inspector F. L. Wild
Mayors Opinion Is.

Food Inspector F. l.. Widmayer is
authority for the statement that Scran-
tons food supply is now in almost per-
feet condition. Last year at this time
a great deal Of fault was being found
with meat. fish and milk.
This year an entirely different state
Of affairs exists. II suppose" said Mr..
Widmayer to a Tribune man. Its be-
cause there isn't the same great guam
tity of food on the local market just
now, as there was last year in June and
July. This is owing, Of course, to the
fact that the demand isn't as large.
Last year there We're constant COM
plants about the milk, and the fish
supply was almost putrid. Nowadays
we receive hardly complaint about
either Of these. Then, too, great
amount of vegetables are being con-
sumed this summer, which people raise
in their own gardens"

ANOTHER NEW INDUSTRY.
A Long-felt Need of Scranton Is Nov
Realized.

For long time Scranton has felt the
need of place where a perfect-fitting
shirt could be secured. II. w. Sykes &
Co., recently located here at room A
and 46 Burr building, is now prepared
to do this work. Here is what one of
our citizens says:
To Whom 1t May Concern:
This is to certify that the writer is of
that form of build that the ordinary GUS
tom made shirt will not Ut him, and is
obliged to have shirts made to order.
For many years | have been seeking
the hest shirt makers that could be found,
but had never succeeded in getting per-
feet tit until Mr.. I'll. w. Sykes, of the
firm of III. w, Sykes & Co., took my
measure and made me one of the most
comfortable fitting shirts / have ever
worn; not a change to be made in any
particular.
After searching so many years for
perfect tit, and having about given it up
as hopeless task, II gives me great pleas
ure to recommend III. w. Sykes & Co. to
any who have trouble in getting shirts
made to tit. Yours truly,
NJ IL IIolgatc.

BAD SMALL BOYS.
They Have Caused Much Trouble at
the Carnival Grounds.

Another of the small boys who have
been occasioning so much trouble at
the Elk carnival grounds was arraigned
before Magistrate Howe in police court
yesterday morning. He gave his name
as Harry Strick, and was dismissed by
the magistrate. with a reprimand.
Thursday the lawlessness of the small
boy at the carnival reached it's limit.
and had it not been for the arrest
made, it is doubtful where the disorder
would have stopped. All week small
boys have been tearing down sections
of fence, at the grounds, crawling un-
der tents, and otherwise deporting
themselves in unseemly fashion.
Thursday night several small youths
entered the Oriental theatre, and while
the Eastern dances We're in progress
playfully threw stones at the perform
ers. One of the women was grazed by
missel, but the young dsturbers es-
capped from the tent before the other in
dignant spectators could chastise them
for disturbing the show.

Prof. Moore's invention, in addition
to reducing temperature, washes
cleanses and renders the air dry and
healthful. Hot air, filled with dust, Is
taken into the machine at a tempera-
ture of nearly 100 degrees and expelled
almost instantly at temperature Of 30
degrees and with its relative humidity
lessened by more than half. The ma
chine operates on the principle of grav-
ity. That Is, 1t makes use of the diff
ference in weight between air at a high
and at low temperature. 1t is, more
over, automatic. 1t requires no motive
power, and is self-adjusting. When the
weather Is very hot the machine works
faster than when It is only moderately
warm, and when the weather is temper
ate, the machine ceases its operations
altogether. 1t Is necessary to change
the machine only once a day, prefer
ably in the morning. and 1t will then
automatically keep the dwelling in
which 1t Is placed at cool, even tenn
perature.
