TIME GAINED
 BY THE HOUSE Regular Session VIII Start OH
 in Full Swing WORK ADVANCED TWO WEEKS All That Now Remains Is for the Varl- ous Committees to Meet and Or eanize for General LeesIa-
 tive Proceedings.
WORK ADVANCED TWO WEEKS

The Knights of Columbus were about will convene In regular session at noon tomorrow. Much has been gained by the intervention of special session, and the work of the regular session will be ad- vanced fully two weeks. as ordinarily 1t requires the time up to the adjournment for the holiday recess to complete the organization of the house. Now it only remains for the committees, the list of which was completed yesterday, to meet and organize. when the house will be ready to proceed at once with general legislative work. It will now be possible to pass at least two of the general ap- propriation bills before the recess is taken and some of the house leaders hope to accomplish this.
 The clerical work on the legislative and executive appropriation bills has been ad- vanced to a point where early considera- tion by the committee can be undertaken. It Is expected that MT. Hemenway, chair man of the appropriations committee, will push the work of his committee as rapidly as possible, Pending reports from committees, the house will take up such matters as will be brought before 1t for consideration by unanimous consent, but the real work will not begin until com mittees have had time to act on measures referred to them. It is understood by members of the house that the Presidents message will be sent to congress tomor- row Its reading will be the principal event in the house. It is expected on the house side that the Christmas recess will be taken about December 22 and that on re-assembling after New Year, the house will get to work in deep earn est, preparatory to as early final adjourn ment as practicable.
 The death of Representative Burke of Pennsylvania will be announced to the house, perhaps tomorrow, and resolu- ton adopted providing for an adjourn ment as mark of respect for the late me mber.

Woman for School Director.

The residents of Porter township,
Pike county, have nominated Mrs.
Sarah Miller for school director, and, as
she has no opposition, her election is
assured. Porter township has so few
voters that Squire Phil Clark was COM
PEELED to fill several offices, but objected
to be constable to his own court of JUS
tice. At the last Democratic primary
they have no Republican voters-there
was shortage for school director. Mrs.
Sarah Miller was therefore nominated
and will be, unanimously elected. As
the law permits women to serve as
school directors, the candidate will be
seated as a member of the board.

port for the fourth month showed an

tendance OF IT'S, or 81 per cent. The
epidemic of mumps was given as the
reason for the falling off in the attend

BASKET BALL.
Crescents Easily Defeat Parsons Club.
Atlantic City This Evening.

The Crescents won easily from Par
sons Wednesday evening by score of
22 to s. The game was interesting from
the start and was clean throughout.
The locals played snappy game at all
times. In the first half the Crescents
scored four baskets, which gave them 8
points. The visitors scored but one
basket and mark on free throw,
which gave them 3 points for the half.
In the second half the locals set
fast pace and succeeded in running up
seven baskets or IA points. The visitors
were only successful in scoring two
baskets and free throw, points in all
for the half. The attendance was large
and the proceeds were donated to Mrs.
John McGeady
The game this evening will probably
be the greatest of the season. During
the past few months the Crescents have
met many strong teams, but none had
the reputation of the Atlantic City club,
which will be their opponents tonight.
The visitors are considered the crack
team OF New Jersey and has so far de-
feated the strongest clubs Of state and
eastern Pennsylvania. Notwthsta nding
this record, the local boys are prepared
to give them hard battle, and no honor
able opportunity to win will be permitted
to pass. Coach Kelly, OF Mnersvile,
will have charge of the Crescents tonight
and will probably play in one of the
halves. A record-breaking attendance
is looked for at this evenings game.

TRI-WEEKLY
M McMEN AMIN'S
DO YOU STOP
TO SIFT
South Centre Street

The wheat from the chaff, the
good from the bad, the truth from
the false? You read some mighty
nice stories in the papers nowadays
of big reductions, but when you
examine facts back of the words
you are more than likely to find
promises which the makers cannot
fulfill and would not if they could.
For our part we would rather
shut up our store and be idle than
give anybody the right to say of it:
"That store is not as careful of its
reputation as it used to be-" Re-
putation is the bread and butter of
this business, and is worth more to
us than the few paltry dollars an
end of the seasons sale brings, if
conducted under false pretenses.
The middle of the winter finds
us with quite an assortment of sea-
sonable goods, including Rubber
Boots and Shoes, Hats and Caps,
Gloves, Extra Heavy Underwear,
Heavy Hosiery, and other articles
designed for wear during this
weather These we have reduced
in price-not to less than half their
cost-but to figure which will
pleasingly surprise the buyer.
In Winter Neckwear, Collars,
Cuffs, Mems Dress and Working
Shoes, Women's and Children's
Shoes, Gents Furnishings, ETC.,
our lines are very complete and
the stock is of that same high-grade
which you always found in our
store.
We are pleased to quote you
prices and have you examine the
goods at any time. Do not forget
that a child can buy here as cheap
ly and to as good advantage as the
adult.

There is only one thing in Rub

There was a man from Texas who looked as if
he might have held up real stages in his day.
nervous little woman from Minnesota was
showing her ten-year-old "the biggest town on

elderly uncle in tow. He was worried because
the Fifth-ave. wagon would carry more people
than the Coffeyville "'bus," and several times
he expressed the determination of having seats
put on the top of her. just soon as he got
back home
Much to the reporters surprise none OF those
inside the stage marvelled at the Flatiron Build
ing. Perhaps they didn't see it, and he Ventured
to call their attention to it. There was no rush
to get heads out of windows, and the reporter
was at a loss for an explanation until some one
remarked: I'VE looked fill of that yester-
day" Investigation showed that the Flatiron
was the first thing the resorters hunted out.
''Coffeyville is ahead of New-York in the mat
ter of building lots" declared the uncle in guard
of the "schoolma' ans" Wed never have to
build on a little plot like that. Why. man
could get twenty-acre lot to build out in
