In ona instance the police opened fire with revolvers, and, although the fusillade was continued for several minutes, nobody was injured. Later there Washington, July 10.—The reported seizure of islands off the coast of Borneo by American wnr ships apparently was as great a surprise to administration officials in Washington as it was to members of parliament in London. No information that such a step was contemplated has come from the admiral commanding the American fleet in Philippine waters and no exploitation along the lines indicated has been directed by the officials here, so far as can be ascertained. 1 lot children's black ribbed fine quality Hose, usually sold for 10c, now going for 7c a pair 1 lot children's fine quality ribbed Vests, very special for 3c each 1 lot Summer Corsets, batiste covered, 50c quality, straight front, medium bust, today 25c Rome, July 16.—1This morning at 9 o'clock the following bulletin was issued at the Vatican: "The Pope passed a very restless, sleepless night. The general condition of His Holiness shows no other modification than greater frequency of respiration, due to increased gathering of liquid in the pleura. Pulsation, 88; temperature, 35.3 Centigrade; respiration, 36. (Signed) Lap'poni, Mazzoni." GROCERIES & YOU+HFUL TRAVELERS. BRENNAN S ROBERTS.

Both pbones Mary and Frankie Nealon, two youthful travelers, arrived in Pittston Wed; nesday on the Lehigh Valley express from the west. Mary is 10 years and Frankie 8 years old. They made the entire trip from Anaconda, Montana, alone, and were carefully looked after by the train crews on the roads over which they passed. The little folks were on the road three days and three nights, covering a distance of nearly 2,400 miles, and stood the journey remarkably well. They are the children of Michael Nealon, a former resident of this section. Their mother is dead, and the father sent them east to make their home with the family of his brother, Martin Nealon, of Cork Lane. to Pittston. 1 lot ladies' white lawn waists, trimmed with embroidery and lace, great value for 98c No one entered or left the Vatican during the night. This morning's papert report that His Holiness is sinking. An unofficial report says the Pope's body is covered with perspiration, presaging the fast approach of the end. A very plausible explanation of the reported occurrence, It Is stated, is that the commanding officer in the Philippines simply had sent one or more of his vessels and hoisted the flag of the United States over some islands near the coast of Borneo which were purchased by the United States from Spain subsequent to the treaty of Paris and that the sovereignty of the United States over them had been proclaimed formally. For This Week Only 1 lot li«ht lawn and dark percale Wrappers, good value for $1; reduced price 60c each The first fight occurred when a truck loaded with freight, escorted by police, bound for the Burlington 'depot, was passing m unfinished building at the corner of Harrison and Peoria streets. A howling mob of a thousand men and boys was following close upon the police and pelting them with stones and sticks. Teamsters who sympathized with the strikers managed to get their wagons in the way of the Kellogg company's wagon as it reached Peoria street and occasioned a blockade. FALLON—M'CUE NUPTIAL8. Hungarian United Following his restless night, the Pope visibly lost ground, his weakness increasing as the morning houre wore on. His breathing became more difficult, and, in order to assist the patient, his faithful valet. Centra, placed him in a reclining position and fanned him continuously. Even then the pontiff was so restleBs that his pillow had to be changed frequently. The rapid increase in the liquid in the pleura again became apparent. Before the day is over, a third operation will doubtless be necessary. This third puncture will be more difficult and dangerous than the two preceding ones, owing to the great decline in the patient's power and the consequent absence of ability to resist the depleting influence of the operation. Estimable Young Couple United in the PEOPLE'S STORE Bonds of Matrimony. Yesterday afternoon at 3 o'clock oc curred the marriage of Miss Margaret McCue, of Upper Pittston, and John Fallon, of West Pittston, in St. John's R. C. church. The, ceremony was witnessed by a large number of friends of the contracting parties and was performed by Rev. Father O'Malley, pastor of the church. The bride was attended by her cousin, Miss Lizzie McCue, of West Pittston, and the groom by Edward Joyce, of Upper Pittston. The gown of the bride was of light blue silk mulle. The bridesmaid's dress was of pongee silk, with applique trimming. Both the bride and her attendant wore black picture hats. Immediately after the ceremony the party drove to Wilkesbarre and on their return a wedding supper was served at the home of Dolph Glennon. in West Pittston, where the bride had been employed for a number of years. Only the couple and their immediate relatives were present. The groom is a well known young man, who is employed as a driver by Hughes & Glennon. The couple have gone housekeeping on Tunkhannock road; near the Forest Castle brewery. Working Shoes, 15 South Main St., Pittston. ALWAYS THE CHEAPEST. These were the Cngayan Sulu group, comprising one large and fourteen smaller islands and the larger island of Palawan. These islands were not comprehended within the boundaries of the Philippine archipelago when the treaty of Paris was signed. The claim was made later, however, that they rightfully belonged to Spain, and they were formally ceded to the United States by a subsequent action of that government, and our congress made an appropriation and paid the purchase price agreed on for them. The islands of the Cngayan group are very close to the Borneo const, and the action of the American naval officials in formally raising the American flag over "them, if this has been done, has no doubt given rise to the impression in the minds of those unacquainted with the facts that the United States had seized the islands.$1.00 The police were endeavoring to clear the street when the workmen on the unfinished building showered them with bricks. The officers at once drew their revolvers and fired at the workmen, who hastily fled to the Interior of the building. The police kept up their fire through the windows and drove nearly nil the workmen from the place. The route to the depot was then tnkcn up. ;ind, although there were several iiloekides. the wagon reached the depot and the good* were delivered. EVANS BROS,: E A CRUEL HOAX Former Price $1.25.

No Alarm In London, July 10.—SiveruJ^morning papers print the rumor currenf'ln {fie lobby of the house of commons last night that some American war ships had seized about twenty small islands off the coast of Borneo, but the report attracts little attention nnd no comment.

In ona instance the police opened fire with revolvers, and, although the fusillade was continued for several minutes, nobody was injured. Later there Washington, July 10.—The reported seizure of islands off the coast of Borneo by American wnr ships apparently was as great a surprise to administration officials in Washington as it was to members of parliament in London.

Both pbones Mary and Frankie Nealon, two youthful travelers, arrived in Pittston Wed; nesday on the Lehigh Valley express from the west. Mary is 10 years and Frankie 8 years old. They made the entire trip from Anaconda, Montana, alone, and were carefully looked after by the train crews on the roads over which they passed. The little folks were on the road three days and three nights, covering a distance of nearly 2,400 miles, and stood the journey remarkably well. They are the children of Michael Nealon, a former resident of this section.

This morning's papert report that His Holiness is sinking. An unofficial report says the Pope's body is covered with perspiration, presaging the fast approach of the end. A very plausible explanation of the reported occurrence, It Is stated, is that the commanding officer in the Philippines simply had sent one or more of his vessels and hoisted the flag of the United States over some islands near the coast of Borneo which were purchased by the United States from Spain subsequent to the treaty of Paris and that the sovereignty of the United States over them had been proclaimed formally.

A howling mob of a thousand men and boys was following close upon the police and pelting them with stones and sticks. Teamsters who sympathized with the strikers managed to get their wagons in the way of the Kellogg company's wagon as it reached Peoria street and occasioned a blockade. FALLON—M'CUE NUPTIAL8. Hungarian United Following his restless night, the Pope visibly lost ground, his weakness increasing as the morning houre wore on. His breathing became more difficult, and, in order to assist the patient, his faithful valet. Centra, placed him in a reclining position and fanned him continuously. Even then the pontiff was so restleBs that his pillow had to be changed frequently. The rapid increase in the liquid in the pleura again became apparent. Before the day is over, a third operation will doubtless be necessary. This third puncture will be more difficult and dangerous than the two preceding ones, owing to the great decline in the patient's power and the consequent absence of ability to resist the depleting influence of the operation. Estimable Young Couple United in the PEOPLE'S STORE Bonds of Matrimony. Yesterday afternoon at 3 o'clock oc curred the marriage of Miss Margaret McCue, of Upper Pittston, and John Fallon, of West Pittston, in St. John's R. C. church.

These were the Cngayan Sulu group, comprising one large and fourteen smaller islands and the larger island of Palawan. These islands were not comprehended within the boundaries of the Philippine archipelago when the treaty of Paris was signed. The claim was made later, however, that they rightfully belonged to Spain, and they were formally ceded to the United States by a subsequent action of that government, and our congress made an appropriation and paid the purchase price agreed on for them. The islands of the Cngayan group are very close to the Borneo const, and the action of the American naval officials in formally raising the American flag over "them, if this has been done, has no doubt given rise to the impression in the minds of those unacquainted with the facts that the United States had seized the islands.$1.00 The police were endeavoring to clear the street when the workmen on the unfinished building showered them with bricks. The officers at once drew their revolvers and fired at the workmen, who hastily fled to the Interior of the building.
