Jacob Il. Stubblebine, of Plymouth,
has an application pending for a pat
ent on an improved automatic car
coupler. The contrivance is designed
to work on any car, whether in the
mines or on the railroads, and If adopt
ed it will be the means of saving many
lives and limbs. 1t is constructed in
such a manner that there Is no neces-
sity whatever of going between the
cars to open or close it. AS the cars
are bumped together they couple, and
by lifting light lever on the side they
become uncoupled. The working model
shows an upright bolt which drops into
a notch on each car as they come to-
gether. 1t is practicable on any curve
or grade of the road or angle of the
cars.
The couplings at present in use on
the railroads of the country are de-
cided improvement upon the old meth
cd. but Mr.. Stubblebne's invention is
apparently far in advance of the latter.
With this improved coupling the dam
ger of wrecks by the present compli-
Gated contrivance falling to the tracks
is removed and the railroads of the
country as well as the employees will
be the gamers. 1t is the intention or
the inventor to see the practical rail-
road managers of this section. with
view to having them use his coupling
so that it's merits may be fully demon
strated.-Wilkes- Barre Record.

The extremely disagreeablc weather of last
night did not prevent a large and very represen-
tatiye audience from crowding the lyceum TO
witness the production Of De Koyen and Smiths
opera, Foxy CUTLER" with Jerome Sykes in the
title role. Mr. Sykes made such decided hit
as the blunderng Quiller in ''Thc liighwayman,"
that his creators deemed him worthy of an
opera of his own and the one presented last
night Is the result
The humor of the opera turns on the sublime
egotism and quaint form of speech of Detective
Foxy Quller Of Portsmouth, England, where the
opera opens. Money has been stolen from
ship owner just returned from long voyage
and Quillcr takes charge of the case lie fol-
lows a clue which leads him to Corsica and there
by series OF deductions becomes convinced that
he is the culprit and in the capacity of Quiller,
the thief catcher takes into custody Quiller.
the alleged thief In Corsica he becomes mixed
up in vendetta and altogether has a very ex-
citing time.
The music Of the opera is not up TO the stand.

baritone voice of Julius Stcgcr. lie was ac
compancd by an octettc OF guitar players who
also assisted in the chorus. ''The Parrot Song"
by Harry MacDonough and little Adolph link,
was also a feature of this act. The best things
in the third act were the "Song of the Sword"
by MIR. Steger, and shepherds Song" by the
Misses Kent and Forrest and chorus.
In the development of the humor of the opera
the star was assisted by Harry MacDonough and
the dmnutive Adolph link. The company was
one OF the largest seen in this city with a
comic opera organization and the chorus was
made up Of good and well trained voices. The

margin of profit year by year, until it
is no longer profitable to manufacture
some of the cheaper grades.
The new organization is to be known
as the National Association of Me-
chanics Garment Manufacturers and
will include the manufacturers of
workingael's blouses, jumpers and
working clothes as we'll as overalls.

that Stuarts Catarrh Tablets, which
they sell at SO cents for full sized
treatment, Is the safest, most effective
and popular of all catarrh remedies.
Nearly all cheap cough mixtures and
throat lozenges contain opiates: these
cheap medicines give Il temporary re-
lief, especially with little children by
destroying nerve sensation: the irrita-
tion in throat, which causes coughing
is temporarily removed, not by remov-
ing the cause, but by deadening the
nerves of feeling the irritation is not
felt although it is still there and will
promptly return.
S;tuart's Catarrh Tablets is the best
remedy to remove catarrhal secretion,
because they are composed of whole
some antiseptics like Red Gum, Blood
Root, ETC.. when you use these tablets
YOU know what you are putting into
your system and not taking chances
with cocaine, opiates or similar poi
sons found in so many catarrh cures
and cough medicines.
Dr. Ramsdell, in commenting on ca
tarrh cures. says: 81 can heartily rec
ommend Stuart's Catarrh Tablets. be-
cituSe tHey COlltdlIl llO COCulHe lloI otH-
er dangerous drug found in so many
advertised catarrh cures. have
known of many cases Of long standing
catarrh of the head and throat COM
pletely cured by the daily use of these
tablets for several weeks. One case in
particular, which l could not reach
with an inhaler or spray and where
the catarrh caused daily headaches
and a noticeable loss of hearing was
entirely cured by this harmless but ef-
fective remedy"
DR.. Wainwright says: II never hesi-
tate to prescribe Stuart's Catarrh Tab
let's for catarrhal headaches and ca
to be perfectly safe for child or adult
and have seen many remarkable cures
resulting from their regular daily use;
because they are advertised and sold
in drug stores is no reason why any
good physician should not use them
because we should seize upon the
means of cure wherever found
Stuart's Catarrh Tablets are espe-
cially valuable for catarrhal colds in
children because they are pleasant to
the taste and may be used freely to
break up severe colds and Group at the
very beginning.
All druggists sell the remedy at fifty
cents for full sized package.
