Holmes, who was kilied in the Main street motor accident, was completed yester- day afternoon, instead of in the evening, as was announced at the close of last Friday session. What happened is not known in detail save to the coroner, the jurymen and the witnesses, for the coroner issued an order excluding all outsiders from the pro- ceedings, Reporters and representatives of the dead man's estate were alike under the ban, and the only record that is kept of tho proceedings are the very imperfect notes kept by the coroner himself, the short hand reporters who took notes of all the preced- ing days’ sessinns having been included in on, J. E. Bixby, J. W. Hoyman, Herman Parr, the motor mau, George Burke, the conductor, and Miss Maud Bryant were the witnesses examined. Miss Bryant stated thut just be- fore the accident the motor stopped and then started up again suddenly, conveying the impression to her that the conductor saw the train and was trying to pass ahead of it. OParr stated that at the switeha short distance cast of the crossing he received a severo shock from the brake, and ran the rest of the distance intervening between the switch and the crossing without his hand on the brake, 80 as to avoid any more shocks. When he saw the train he put his hand back on the brake, but sustained an- other shock that almost paralyzed his arm and covered his eyes with a sort of film that prevented him from realizing just what was going on about him, The conductor, Burke. when asked why he aid not pull the trolley from the wire when he saw the danger impending, stated that he thought the motorman was trying to reverse his current, and suw that for him to pull off the trolley would be to frustrate the motorman’s pl After the evidence had been heard the jurymen retired and soon after returned g verdict in which they held that the motor compuny Wi artly responsible for the accident and recommended that the case be turned over to the grand jury at its next session, It also directed that both Superin- tendent A, K. Stone and the motorman, Herman Parr, be held, the former because he revolied the old rule requiring conductors to flag the trains, and the latter because he attempted to cross in front of the freight trai Much erfticism has been expressed on the action of Coroner Seybert in this case. It has been evident from the start that he was opposed to giving the case the siiting it de- served, and during the last day or two it has been just as evident that he desirtd to pre- vent the public, and even the friends of the dead man, who had a right to be interested, from learning the facts that might be brought out during the inquest. The end of the matter has not yet been reached by any mea however, and the information that the friends and family of the deceased havo been deprived of will come out in another wily.

The city marshal was instructed to abate the nuisance on Ninth street near Broadway in the shape of water and coal piles, The matter of doing away with the Man- awa motor switch at the same place wa ferred to the city attorney to ascertain whi ights the city has, he cold resolution {instructing the city treasurer Lo withhold the wmoney iu the ark fund from the park commissioners, ton tho production of warrauts, wus re- scinded, Alderman Smith introduced an ordinance requiring all motor traius to be stopped not less than twenty feet from railway crossings and the conductor to precede his train over the crossing, and fixing & fine of no S than §10 nor more than $100 for each viola- tion. The ordinance was passed under the suspension of the rules. An ordinance requiring the park commis- sioners to make annual reports to the eity council of all money received and expended by them was passed under & suspension of the rules, An ordinance forbidding auy diseased or unwholesome meat or vege- tables for sale and providing tor a fine of not less than #25 for violutious, was read three times and referred to the health committee. ‘The meat and milk inspection ordinance was amended by the addition of certain sec- tious, requiring the mspector to visit each dairy in or about the city twice a month g the year and see that the cattle were from disease and supplied with proper the offering of food. “Tlie city meat and milk inspector reported that the apparatus now owned by the city for testing mitk was insufficient and recom- mended that the city purchase a Babeock teste A resolution thanking Colonel Addison Cochran for his gift of the west ena park to the city was unsuimously adopted, L The committee to which was referred the matter of fixing boundaries for herding cat- tle recommended that all ground west of ‘Twenty-sixth stroet and between the Union Pacific tracks and Fifth avenue, be allowed to be used for herding purposes, The report was concurred in and an ordinance contain- ing the desired provisions was passed. The committee on the proposed Indian creek bridge on Mynster steeet recommended that action be postponed oue year on account of lack of mouey in the bridge fund. The report was concurred in. The report of special committee ad- versely to paying the expenses of the law suit which M. Welker incurred while acting as clty meat inspeotor was adopted, White votiug no.

E.J. Abbott was superintending the job of moving them and putting them awaya in the city's archives, Several men who were doing the socialbility act in the city clerk's office were surprised by the sud- den appearance at the door, of Abbott, with blanched face and chattering teeth HWew-w-hat d'ye snppose this is? as he held a long, dark object out to the view of the spectators. 1t looked as though it might be a piece of gas vipe, and there was o mysterious look about it that instantly brought the word “dynamite” to the lips of somcone. Ihere was a scatteration, and no one seemed anxious to relieve Abbott of his unwelcome burden. Gradually, however, the crowd gathered around and began to specu- late as to what the bomb might contain, and what object anyone could have in trying to blow up the court house or the city building. ‘‘Let's have it,” finally exclaimed City Clerk Zurmuehlen, waving a serew driver in the air, and as he spoke a determination to dio for his country if necessary spread over his face and made his careworn features almost beautiful. The crowd gathered about him at a respectful distance and watched him pry away on the sealing at the end of the pive, fully expocting to see his head and his heels part company and start out to seo the world in opposite directions. But they were woefully disappointed. There was not the slightest sign of a sensation of that Kkind, and _when at last tho sealing was broken and a dirty, whitish cake of powdery stuff fell out there was o look of disgust upon the features of the people who had been fully expecting annihilation a fow min- utes before. The ‘“bomb"” was ignomini- ously chucked out fnto the street and fell with 4 d—-, s—— t—— that proclaimed it entirely harmless. It was a sample cake of cement, a reminiscence of public improve- ments of by-gone years, said he, Among the most attractive features under the canvass are city trained and educated animals, charming, intelligent creatures, whose bewildering perform- ances are without parallel! Competent and esperienced trainers are employed the year vround, develop- ing and expanding brute education. Animals that will talk! Animals that will please Animals that will amaz Animals that will amuse! Ammals that will astonish! ' Great reduction in millinery at Miss Ragsdale's, 337 Broadwa; Dangerous Man Trap. There is a place in the western part of the city which demands the immediate attention of the city authoritics. Tt is the Indian creek bridge on Seventh avenue, The south fout-path connects with the road on the east end, but on the west thero is a jumping off place which would drop a man three or four feet. Luckily it is the north side of the bridge which 1s used almost entirely, so th lents have so far been avoided. Ther is nothing in the world, however, to prevent the south ide from being used as well, epting the fact that there 4s no sidewalk on that side of the strect. Any one unacquainted with the lay of the land passing along on a dark night would very likely be hurled over the end of the bridge and a big dan e suit against the city would be the inevitable result. 1t is a pure matter of luck that such a thing has not happened already. 10 city authorities, who lost the city $3.600 a week or so ago by their recklessness in allowing the Interstate Street Railway company to keep North Bighth street obstructed with its pieces of track, have learned a lessonm, it is to be hoped, and will doubtless do something to prevent move expensive litigation.

BEHAD KIDNEY DISESE n'ed ™ ontof Ko |Only Relief Found Was in Paine’s Celery Compound. James Harris, an Octogenarian, Found a Cure Long Sought. The Brillinat faying of T. G. Appleton, Boston's Great Wit Not everybody knows that the Lril- liant Ing, “'Is lifo worth living? That depends on the livs originated with the late Thomas G. Appleton of Boston. Thero’s enough wisdom in the pun to g0t upa colloge of physicians. The liver, indeed, makes ono seco things through rose-colured glasses, or through the smoky glass of disense, In the weakness of shutting one's eyes to the beginning of liver troubles be- cause they are small ones, misfortune ronlly lics. The man who neglects plain signs of coming illness, or who does not know what to do when sickness overtakes him -guch a man is culpably ignorant. As he gives a double benelit who gives quickly, soa man on tho verge of fall- ing into dyspepsin, nervous prosteation, or kidvey trouble does himself a doublo benetit who quickly attends to disagroe- ablo sensations in stomach, liver or head. It may bs nothing, it may be serious Thoe ritkis large. Paine’s celery com- pound is now &0 easily oblainable— every druggist of any standing has it — and Paine’s celery compound so quickly and permancntly relioves sufferers from their ills, that there is no excuse for a man or woman saying, “It is too late.” Jumes Harvis of Towanda, Penn., is 81 yenrs old. Ho been court for thivty-cight years, and is in thisway known in overy part of his county. e is o man very much respected by all who TJAMES IIARRIS. know him. TIie has been in poor health for a long time, and his improved coadi- tion is the subject of gene Clarence T. I 5 o Towanda, and he s that when Harris went to him for two bottles of Paine’s cele compound last May, beforo he rted for a visit to his daughter in Orwoll, lie was in very baa shape, und hewould not havebeen surprised if Mr. Harris had never comae baek to court again, Let Mr. Harris tell his story: Heo I have been troubied for years with what thedoctors call Bright's disease, and my right kidney has both- ored me terribly; my inees puined me so that I could hardly bend over at all. I had dizziness in my head, although I never was much troubled with head- ache. T have been sodizzy as to full off my chair and had to bo helped up by others. In these dizzy spelis I would apparently see specks llying in the air, and 1 was troubled very frequent! this manner, both on the street and in the house. I had eramps nights o tor- ribly that [ coula not get to sleep until 3 o’ciock in the morning. 1 first read of Paine’s celery compound about a year ago. Having tried nearly all the m cines und consulted several physicians without getting relief, I had little confi- dence inanything, but I spoke to Drug- gist Claren Kirby about it, and he said he wi ving a'great demand for it, and [ concluded to try it. I pur- chased two bottles and took 1t to Orwell with me ana used it according to dires tions. I began to feel better at onc When two bottles were gone I could get no more at Orwell and discontinued its use until [ came back to Towanda. But I certainly had less pain in my kidneys, had no cramps, and could sleep and rest, nearly all n-ght. When [ went into the court house on my return, Judge Peck and all the court oflicers congratulated me on my improved appearance and told me I wus gotting young again, And I certainly feel younger now. Iam taking my third bottle of Paine’s celery com- pound, and ghall continue its use. It has done mo more good than all the other medicine I over took, and to it 1 owo my present improved condition of health.” kil — | KNOWLEGE IS POWER And Health is the Royal = Road to Happiness.
