Judge Newcomb declared that the
action of the respondents could not to
his way of thinking, be recorded with
decent or honest motives
Judge Kelly was of the opinion that
Beddoe by qualifying as councilman
severed his connection with the board
Of health and that the the coucil did an
improper thing in ousting him.
Judge Edwards wanted to know if it
wasn't possible for the eight council
men, about whose election there was
no question, to get together and effect
an organization The judge speaking
for himself, and not committing the
court threw out the hint that if organ
ization was amicably effected at once,
the court might be moved to refrain
from applying drastic measures to ef-
feet organization.
Il guess it would be a small loss to
the borough if drastic measures were
applied" remarked Judge Newcomb, as
he surveyed the councilmen.
Mr. O'Brien pointed out to the court,
that even If the eight got together and
effected an organization, it would not
clear up the difficulty, as the men who
had been elected to the administrative
offices from treasurer down to water
boy would probably come into court
claiming an election and demanding
salary. Court should declare the meet
ing invalid, Mr.. O'Brien contended, as
first step towards bringing about an
amicable organization.
Mr.. Harris argued to the court that
as long as there was quorum present
when the meeting began and the ques-
ton of mo quorum" was not subse-
quently raised there was a constructive
quorum during the whole meeting.
The judges decided to reserve their
decision until the testimony had been
transcribed and more time was given to
consideration of the law bearing on the
case.

LARGEST WAGON EVER
BUILT in SCRANTON
Has Just Been Turned Out by the
Gilhool Wagon Works for j. N.
Brown, of Dover, N. j.

The largest wagon ever built in
Scranton, has just been turned out of
the w. r. Gilhool shops on North Sew
enth street. 1t is an immense van, to
be used for carting furniture, and was
built expressly for j. n. Brown, of
Dover, N. j, The wagon weighs 5000
pounds.
In the wagonmaker's art the wagon
might be justly called a picture of
beauty, and without doubt, far
eclipses anything of the kind ever seen
in this city. 1t Is finished with yellow
running gears and a sage green body.
The lettering on the body of the wagon
is in gold, and the trimmings are all
brass.
1t is quite a compliment to the Gill
hool wagon works that the contract for
building the wagon was let to them,
and more especially when it is consid-
cred that it is for an out -of-town con-
cern. 1t plainly demonstrates that j.
N. Brown was looking for the best pos
sible Workmanship and material at fig
ures that were right, and he found all
in Scranton. The wagon has elected
considerable favorable local comment,
which is well deserved by the builders.
The wagon will be shipped in the near
future to the owner. ~

Paine's Celery
Compound
HAS THE APPROVAL AND In
D0RSEMENT. OF THE
BEST PEOPLE AS A
LIFE GlvBR.
No Other Spring Medicine Can
Give Such CheeringandHappy
Results to Sick and Dis
eased People.

AS spring ushers in, the physically
weak, sick, and diseased realize that
their condition Is one of extreme dam
ger. 1t Is a well-known fact that while
the trees bud and dress anew, thou
sands of men and women are cut off by
the common diseases of life. This fact
should arouse the attention of the all
ing and sick to the folly of underesti-
mating and neglecting the ills that
make life miserable at this season.
The use of Paine's Celery Compound
at this time will save many precious
life. The great compound equalizes
and calms all the nervous tissues and
induces the body to take on firm and
solid flesh. 1t purifles the blood, as is
plainly shown by the rapid clearing of
the skin of all evidence of bad humors
within; it regulates the organs of di
gestion; it gives natural sleep and
sweet rest
All our best physicians recognize
Paine's Celery Compound as the one
scientific spring remedy, and it is uni
versally prescribed by them wherever
there is need of n vigorous and prompt
restoring to health and strength. The
use of one bottle of Paine's Celery Com
pound will bring the happiest results to
all weak, broken down, and Respondent
sufferers, and will quickly Danish the
fears of doubters and nnbelievers.
Paine's Celery Compound has the APP
proval and indorsaton of clergymen,
professional men generally judges,
members of parliament, merchants, and
the best people. Test its virtues, dear
sufferer; it cannot disappont you.

family and settled in Canaan, Wayne
county. He studied medicine while a
young man and began practice in Car
bondale over fifty years ago. He spent
a number of years in touring the coun-
try as a travelling specialist and settled
in this part Of the state again about
forty years ago.
For the past nine years he has lived
in this city. He, gave up active prac-
tice about six years ago, but up to the
day he was stricken with paralysis, a
little over week ago, he was wonder
fully active. He is survived by a
daughter, Mrs. C.. P. Jadwin, and one
son, William Hampton, of Scranton.
DR.. Hampton was OF jovial disposi-
tion, and had a pleasant word for all,
and up TO his last illness, retained
mental faculties and physical strength
to a remarkable degree.
He was one of the pioneers of Car
bondale, and though it was not his
native town he had that love for it that
is characteristic of ones feeling for his
home. In the early days, when Car
bondale was the biggest town in this
section, he travelled from house to
house in the scattered settlements, ad-
minstering to the sick His practice
he continued up to within a few years
ago, and even since then there were
aged persons who would not be salts
fed without the advice of DR.. Hamp-
ton. He continued his interest in Car
bondale until almost the day he. was
stricken. When the city celebrated it's
golden jubilee in September, DR.. Hamp-
ton was member of the big family
of Carbondale's sons who gathered to
join in the Fluctuations, and there was
no more enthusiastic participant than
himself. He seemed to live over again
the days OF early manhood, and never
spoke of the long ago. He visited Car
bondale only a few months ago to
direct some improvements about his
properties that he built up during his
active career there.
