years of age and is survived by his
parents, Mr.. and Mrs. Kllian Miller,
and by two brothers and one sister, as
follows: Charles, Of town; William. Day
ton, Ohio, and Mrs. George Kelly, Maha-
noy Pane. The funeral will take place
at 8 O'Clock tomorrow morning. followed
by a requiem mass at St AIMS church.
The interment will be made at st. AIMS

tions of diseases set in and the end was
predicted by the attending physicians.

Board Getting Together.

There are some prospects that Free
land will have Board of Health again
At a meeting held Wednesday evening
steps were taken to reorganize this i'm
portant body and the following names
have been decided upon to present to
council as mem bers: DR.. w. Ii. Dear
dorff, Dr. Evans, David P. Jones, Jacob
Sosnowski and John e. McHugh.
Council should act upon these names
at its special meeting this evening, so
that the Board of Health will have a
legal existence. The town is not in the
best of condition, viewed from health
standpoint at the present time. There
are number of cases of measles
throughout the borough, and the laws
covering this disease cannot ba enforced
too soon, otherwise an epidemic of large
proportions will follow
Children are attending school from
homes where two and three OF the
family are affected, and if this state of
affairs is permitted to continue it will
be only short while until the 900 bor-
ough school children will be down with
the disease.

Dissatisfied RaiIrOaderS.

From the Hazleton Standard.
The employees of the D. S. e. S. Rail
road will be paid today and the men ex-
pected to receive an increase in their
wages, but were surprised and dsap-
pointed when they learned yesterday
that they would receive no increase
this pay. The crews on the mine
runs are paid l6 cents less per day than
is being paid for the same service on
the Lehigh Valley Railroad In other
departments Of the d. S. & S. men are
not paid as well as the employees of the
Lehgh Valley Railroad. The men say
that the ID. 5. & s. Company has always
expressed willingness to pay the same
wages to their men as the Lehigh Valley
pays to their men, but the company is
not doing it.
There is much dissatisfaction exist
ing among the employees of the D. S. &
5. Railroad because of the indisposition
of the company to pay them the same
wages as is paid to the Lehigh Valley
employees and unless there is promise
OF its early forthcoming committee of
the employees will wait upon the officials

Four Charged With Murder.

Yesterday morning David Thomas,
Jenkin Thomas, John McDermott and
Charles Edwards, four young men of
Plymouth who are charged with the
killing of John Masulis at Plymouth
about two weeks ago, were taken before
Judge Halsey and given habeas corpus
hearing. The judge believed the evil
dence against them was strong enough
to hold them for the grand jury and he
asked that each of the defendants give
bail in the sum of $4,000 to await the
grand jury's action. They were unable
to secure bondsmen and were taken
back to the county prison

Butler Township Sued.

Before Judge Lynch yesterday about
all day was taken up In the trial of the
case of Charles S. Simpson, representing
the Western Scaper Company, against
Butler township. Nine years ago Butler
township decided to get new scraper
and entered into an agreement with
Simpson to give the company he repre-
sented the old scraper and note for
Sl70 against the township in return for
new scraper. The deal was consum-
mated, but when Simpson presented the
note the township refused to honor it,,
for the reason that only one of the super
visors took part in the transaction.
The jury is still out.

BIOtz Case in Jury's Hands.

Before Judge Ferris yesterday the
entire day was taken up with the Blotz
damage case, which was once before
tried before the Luzerne courts. The
plaintiff is Mrs. Mary Blotz, of Freeand,
who seeks to recover from the. Lehigh
Valley Railroad Company $40, 900 for the
death of her son, Christian, who was
employed at the colIiery of the Pond
Creek Coal Company and drove to and
from his work every day, the vehicle in
which he rode being top buggy. The
young man worked on the night Of No
vember 3, 1898, and the next morning
while driving home he was struck by a
Lehigh Valley passenger train and in
stantly killed.
The accident occurred at Fairchild's
crossing, and the plaintiff claims that
the company did not exercise care by
giving signals that the train was ap-
preaching. The answer OF the defense
is that all the usual warning signals

EXTENSION OF
TROLLEY ROAD
Traction Tracks May Come
to Front Street.
Special Meeting of Council
Called for This Evening
to Consider a Proposition
From the Company.

Through the intercesson of the trolley
and railroad committee of the Board of
Trade, the differences which have exist
ed for more than a year past between
the borough council and the Lehigh
Traction Company are likely to be ad-
iusted in manner satisfactory to all
the interested parties. This is the view
taken on the subject by members of the
committee since the conference held
on Wednesday afternoon with officials of
the trolley line.
1t is understood that the traction
people are satisfied to extend their road
inside the borough limits again and to
lay their tracks and run cars to the
corner of Centre and Front streets,
which is two blocks beyond their former
terminal.
In return for the expense and outlay
made necessary by this extension, the
borough council will be asked to guar
antee the road certain privileges for a
term of years, the nature of which, it is
expected, will be made known at the
special meeting which has been called
for this evening.
In the absence of an official PROPOSE
tion from the company, the members OF
council who have been spoken to on the
subject by representatives of the Tri-
bune did not seem disposed to commit
themselves in favor or against the pro-
posed extension.
There is feeling, however, that the
question is now on its way to settlement,
and that an arrangement which will be
OF mutual benefit to the town and com
pany will result from the negotiations
which the Board of Trade have begun.
The special meeting of council will be
held at = 80 o'clock this evening.

Do You Enjoy
What You Eat !?

You can eat whatever and whenever you
like if you take Kodol. BY the use Of this
remedy disordered digestion and diseased
stomachs are so completely restored to
health and the full performance of their
functions naturally, that such foods as would
tie one into a double-bow-knot are eaten
without even a "rumbling" and with posi-
tive pleasure and enjoyment. And what is
more these foods are assimilated and
transformed into the kind of nutriment that
is appropriated by the blood and tissues.
Kodol is the only dgestant or combination
of digestants that will digest all classes of
food. In addition to this fact, it contains, in
assimlative form, the greatest known tonic
and reconstructive properties.
Kodol cures indigestion, dyspepsia and all
disorders arising therefrom.

Young Plants

Every farmer knows that
some plants grow better than
others. Soil may be the same
md seed may seem the same
put some plants are weak and
others strong.
And that's the way with
children. They are like young
plants. Same food, same home,
same care but some grow big
md strong while others stay
mall and weak.
SCOTS Emulsion offers an
asy way out of the difficulty.
-hild weakness often means
starvation, not because of lack
# food, but because the food
Ices not feed.
SCOTS Emulsion really feeds
nd gives the child growing
,trength.
Whatever the cause of weak
ness and failure to grow

it and set the matter right.

Pay Your subscription.

A gentleman called at the BANNER
office Saturday to pay his subscription,
and In doing so remarked that be
wanted to apologize for neglecting the
matter SD long, for 1t was simply
neglect, because he had the money so
that the matter could have been paid
any time, and had been neglected so
long that he was really ashamed.
8This leads the BANNER to ask why
people this summer had been so much
slower than usual In paying their sub
scriptions, and this farmer replied that
there was no good reason for lit was
only neglect.
But neglect don't help publishers
pay their help, buy white paper to
print the news on, or pay rent, taxes
and many other items that constantly
call for money.
The facts are that the BANNER has
never known its readers to be so slow
In paying their subscriptions as during
the past three months, and IL asks all
who know themselves to be indebted
on their subscription account to kindly
attend to the matter. II yau cannot
call at the Office personally send post.
Office money order and receipt for IL
will be sent to you by return mail.
This is but small matter to each
individual, but means many hundred
dollars to the publisher. Kindly give
this important matter Immediate at
| tentiOn.
