RICHES AWED HIM BISHOP URGES EARLY SHOPPING- READY FOR JURY A party of local sportsmen spent last week In the mountains of Pike county and returned from their trip last Saturday evening, bringing with them a fine buck deer weighing about 180 pounds dressed. The party was composed of Frank P. Cosper, Perry W. Uershimer and son, Arch, Charles Eckhardt, of this city, and Mr. Stephens, of Wyoming. They spent two full days in the woods before capturing their quarry about 9 o'clock Wednesday morning. According to law dogs are not used in hunting deer, and for that reason hunters usually travel In parties, some of the members taking the position of drivers, trailing through the woods with a cow bell and starting the game. Wednesday morning. Mr. Dershimer succeeded in rousing a deer, which immediately headed for the run where Mr. Eckhardt was stationed, and the latter succeeded in killing it with one shot. The buck was brought here this afternoon, and is on exhibition at Hurst's meat market. The party was deep in the woods and it was necessary to carry their game two miles to the highway.

Yesterday Declared Many C«lrl Verdict is Expected Soon in Clerk* Are Physical Wrecks After Holiday HuhIi, Gillette Trial. At two of the masses yesterday In the Scranton cathedral Bishop Hoban spoke on a matter which he has evidently greatly at heart. Preparatory to the reading of the Gospel at the celebration of the solemn high masa, at 10:10, he appealed •to the men and women of the congregation to do their shopping during the Christmas holidays a i early as possible." Actuated by high humanitarian motives for which prelate is noted, he requested it as a personal favor on the part of the congregation and particularly the women part of "the congregation, to make their purchases early in the month. It was his own experience and that of the priests of the cathedral parish, he said, that after the rush of the Christmas shopping was over, many of the girls were physical wrecks, not infrequently having to take to their beds and incur the expense of doctors' bills for many weeks. He felt assured that it only needed that their attention be drawn to the matter to fall in with his wishes, the reasonableness of which they all could recognize. MAN IS IN DANGER.

In this city last year many of the business men were badly handicapped by the unusual rush of business the Ulst two or three days before Christmas, crowding stores beyond their working capacity and resulting in a heavy strain on the clerks. It is difficult to understand why so many people have come into the habit of leaving necessary gift-buying until the very last minute unless it Is because many merchants postpone their holiday advertising too late. A majority of the stores of this city have their holiday stock now on display, and It Is a matter of fact that the people who buy early will get thf first choice.

Coxton yard, of the Lehigh Valley railroad, had an exceptionally busy time last night. There was for u ATTORNEY DISBARRED ATTORNEY SALSBURG TAKES THE OATH time a congestion of freight traflic due to a seYious accident that occurred Saturday evening at Rochester Junction, on the Buffalo division. Express train Xo. 7, which left Pittston about 2:30 o'clock Saturday afternoon, crashed into the rear end of a freight train. The engineer and fireman of the passenger train, both of whom were residents of Buffalo, were killed, and considerable damage was done to rolling stock, both of the main tracks being blocked for a number of hours. The result nf the blockade was that on Sunday morning and afternoon, through freight traflic was held up, and then, last evening, the delayed freight trains began to come into Coxton, one on the heels of the other. Between 8 o'clock last evening and 3 o'clock this morning, eight trains composej] exclusively of meat and cattle ears arrived In tile yard from the west. There were an average of 35 cars .nil each train. The orders were to push the trains along as rapidly as possible, and the night hands worked so expeditiously that by daylight this morning every one of the eight trains had been inspected, made up anew, the engines and crews changed, and sent on their way east over the mountain cutoff.

The ceremony was formal and consisted of the minute clerk reading the oatli and Mr. Salsburg repeating it after him. The new district attorney will take office on Jan. 1st. Mr. Salsburg has-not yet announced his appointments, but will do so soon. The only appointment that is at all certain is that of Kvan Jones to be one of the assistants.

The attorney against whom this action has been taken is a young man, P. M. Thornton, of Wilkesbarre, who was convicted in court recently of the charge of forgery in connection with" an effort to collect judgments from Kingston township. A couple of weeks ago the Luzerne County Bar Association made application to the court for the disbarment of Mr. Thornton, and at that lime a rule was granted to show cause why his name should not be stricken off the list of bar members. The motion was argued recently, and this morning Judge Ferris read a lengthy opinion, in y/hKh ,t'»e court decreed that the rule asked for should be granted and that Mr. Thornton's name be stricken from the list of attorneys permitted to practice at the Luzerne Bar. The reasons given for this action are that Mr. Thornton had been guilty of forgery and practices unbecoming an attorney. Attorney Thornton was in the court room, occupying a rear seat, when the decision of the court was announced, and Immediately afterward left the bounds, "The railways' immense prosperity has had an effeet on the steel and iron trade, but even America's gigantic iron output is so inadequate that she is driven to buy raw iron abroad. The steel trust alone makes more pig iron than the whole of the works in the United Kingdom. British industries are dwarfed in comparison with those of this prodigious American colossus. Woolly IleuN. room The domestic fowl is supposed to have originated in eastern Asia, whence are derived, even to the present, iuany of the finest breeds. The primitive fowl of 4,000 years ugo was probably something like what Is known today as the "Cochin," a variety still conjmon among the Chinese, who have always been great fanciers of poultry. The ancient Egyptians kept hens and were familiar with the principles of artificial cultivation, for which purpose they employed ovens heated by lamps to un even temperature of 106 degrees. The old Greeks and Romniia had famous strains of chickens. In fhelr time cockfighting was much in vogue. Of the bantams they raised Pliny speaks, referring to them as "a dwarfish kind of hen that is extra little and yet fruitful." Accounts are extant In languages long dead of woolly hens, which are said to have formerly existed; of hairy hens also, and of wingless aud tailless fowls, of horned roosters and other barnyard curiosities. Unfortunately, like the dodo and the great auk, these are all extinct. Whatever opinion may have been formed as to the guilt or Innocence of f*illette, none of the spectators at the trial pretends to understand him.

Friends of Subsidy Hopeful The ship subsidy bill probably will be an exception to the rule for 110 general legislation. The friends of that measure have never been more insistent than now. They are extremely hopeful and yet very apprehensive. The bill has passed the senate and is In committee 111 the house. According to the statement filed by District Attorney Salsburg w.th Clerk of Courts Keese Lloyd, just before  Ing his oath of otiice, his campaign cost him $2,029.90. Of this amoun'. he has bills outstanding amounting to $447.36. The greater portion of Attorney Salsburg's money was spent In advertising. He spent over $lt000 for printing in the various newspapers and advertising .schemes. He also gave County Chairman Jonathan Davis $.100. as his assessment and he still owes $200 on assessments. His peronal cxpenes amount to $178, while he expended $125 on car- fare, livery fare and incidentals. His postage bill amounted to $115.

The senate has on its calendar two important house bills, the immigration bill and the Philippine tariff bill, but there are snags in the pathway of both. "American steel and iron makers are fully booked with orders for the next two years-a state of things which has never been known In England. The cost of food In Britain Is now very high, owing chiefly to the short shipmeats from America, and the day is not far distant when all the food products of America Will be required for American consumption.

So far as Gillette was concerned he would not be overlooked, but he would be a matter of secondary consideration. Much interest attaches to the president's forthcoming recommendations concerning the Panama canal, especially because of his recent visit to the canal zone. It is not expected that he will ask much legislation beyond the necessary appropriations, and there is a general disposition to grant these. The increase of the navy will receive much consideration, hut there is still opposition to the proposed ship of the Dreadnought class. tto 11» but Htu Heal Power.

When in 1778 he came to Paris he came with a well developed sense of the value of advertising. The campaign he inaugurated was of a character to disgust the conservative and thoughtful, but to take a sensation loving populace by storm. Most extravagant tales of cures he had accomplished In Berlin, Vienna and elsewhere were noised abroad. Through a convert he challenged the physicians of Paris to enter into a contest with him, they to treat twelve patients by the orthodox methods, he to treat twelve by his. Of course this challenge was rejected, and equally of course its rejection was interpreted by the thoughtless as an acknowledgment of the superiority of Mesmer's treatment. His rooms were thronged.
