All went well and the enthusiasm was Increasing until the hour set for the en- tertninment.

The Supervisors finally decided to grant the request and allow the use of the room for that purpose on Tuesday, Wednesday and |'Thursday forenoon free of charge.

A MEMBER OF A COMMITTEE AP- POINTED TO CONSULT WITH THI DISTRICT ATTORNEX TAKES A LIMMCLE OF HIS OWN MEDICINE-WILL CLOSE AT MIDNIGHT HEREATTER. Ashort time ago the Barber's Union held a meeting and resolved to have tho law observed regarding the closing of barber shops after midnight Saturdays. The Union appointed a committee to wait on the District Attorney A. 'P. Hopkins and see if he would enforce the law, and if complaints were made he would prosecute, provided sufficient evidence could be obtained. Saturday evening several of the bar- bers wont on a tour and obtained evi- dence and yesterday afternoon at 4 o'clock three of the barbers were ar- rested. 'They were Martin Grage of the corner of Pine and Main Streets, Frank McLaughlin of Canal Street and John Argue of Main Street. 'The first two when they were taken to the Po- lice Station pleaded guilty to the charge and paid a fine of $8 which Judge Stevens thought would serve as a reminder. Mr, Argue was not disposed to pay his fine when he was taken to the Po- lice Station. He had several witnesses and acted as his own lawyer.. After a short trial during which he pleaded his own case remarkably well, Judge Stev- ens seemed convinced of the guilt of the barber, and pronounced his ver- dict which was that he, like his com- panions, should pay into the city treas- ury $3... Mr. Argue settled and was al- lowed to depart in peace. The amus- ing part of the affair is that Mr. Argue was one of the party which waited on the District Attorney and asked if he would enforce the law,. alr, Argue said to a reporter yester- ay: \I should have called for a jury I may have been in the shop af- ter 12 o'clock, but I was not working as was brought out by the testimony of the witnesses I had in court.\ Mr. Argue is the financial secretary of the Union. . 'The complaints were made by Wil- linm McGregor, the secretary of the Barbers Union. A reporter this morning asked Mar- tin Grage, who was one of the barbers fined what would be done if a custom- or was in the chair when 12 o'clock was struck. He said: make the men get out of the chair without being shaved. If I had one side of his face shaved and it was 12 not finish him. 'The man who was in my chair came to the shop at 11:30 and waited until 15, min- utes to 12, when I started to give him a hair cut. I had not finished at 12 o'clock and so was arrested. I did not close my blinds. 'The windows were up so any person could look into the shop. I did not in anyway. try to do the work on the quiet. It seems very advertising an entertainment and then | funny to me that the secretary of the [. Barber's Union should be in that kind of business. He did not go to the Po- Near my shop there is a non-union shop which was doing business after the hour and it was not disturbed. 'The person who made the complaint had to get a couple of boys to go around with him as no men would do it.\ i RESULTED FATALLY. James Bugan, formerly of this City is Dead. WAS STABBED IN A FIGHT AT MUNCIE, IND., SOME TIME AGO, AND AFTER LONG SUFFERINGS DIES PROM HIS WOUNDS-RE- MAINS ARRIVE HERE. From the Union-Sun of May 21. Some time ago the report reached this city that James Dugan who left this city and went to Muncie, Ind., to work had been mixed up in a fight and had been severely wounded. The injuries were inflicted by a drunken ruffin who repeatedly stabbed young Dugan during a melee in which Dugan was acting as a peacemaker, 'The young man being of a strong con- stitution bravely against death, but his wounds were such that death came to relieve his sufferings. The remains were brought to this city to-day on the noon train and were taken to the home of his mother on Green Street, Mr. Dugan was well known here and leaves many friends besides his moth- er, two brothers and four sisters.

THE GAS PIPES OFP THE CITY ARE BEING EXAMINED SO LESS GAS WILL BBE LOST-MAY®* HAVE LOWER RATES. The Lockport Gas and Electric Light Company is fixing the gas pipes of the city in many places. Ar, Forstall, the superintendent of the company said this morning that he though fully one- fourth of the gas which was manufac- tured by the company was lost from the pipes before it reached the consum- or. 'Fhe pipes have not been looked af- ter for some time and Mr. Forstall pro- poses to give them a thorough overhaul ing.

Children Cry for -> Pitcher's Castoriau \I would have to. With a better understanding of the transient nature of the many phys- ical ills, which vanish before proper ef- forts-gentle efforts-pleasant efforts- rightly directed. There is comfort in the knowledge, that so many forms of sickness are not due to any actual dis- ease, but simply to a constipated condi- tion of the system, which the pleasant family laxative, Syrup of Figs, prompt- ly removes. Thatis why it is the only remedy with millions of families, andis everywhere esteemed so highly by all who value good health. Its beneficial effects are due to the fact, that itis the one remedy which promotes internal cleanliness without debilitating the organs on which it acts. It is therefore all important, in order to get its bene- ficial effects, to note when you pur- chase, that you have the genuine arti- cle, which is manufactured by the Cali- fornia Fig Syrup Co. only and sold by all reputable druggists. If in the enjoyment of good health, and the system is regular, laxatives or other remedics are then not needed. If afflicted with any actual disease, one may be commended to the most skillful physicians, but if in need of a laxative, one should have the best, and with the well-informed - everywhere, Syrup of Figs stands highest and is most largely used and gives most general satisfaction FARMERS' CLUB.

MATTHEWS, PRESE DEX OF THE STATE REPUBLI- CaN LEAGUE,,COL PLUMMER AND COL JEROME OF NEW YORK, SPOKE AT aA MEETING HERE - LAST - NIGHT - ANTI PLAWT MEN ASSURED THEY ARE IN LINE FOR THE PLUMS. From thy Union-Sun of May 19. 'The Lockport Republican League held a meeting last night at their hall in Central block ostensibly to shout for their favorite, William McKinley, but in reality to hammer Boss Platt and his representatives in this county. *The machine men have had a lot of fun with us,\ said ane of the McKinley club men last night, \and now it is our turn. We intend to play horse with the Ellsworth crowd from now out.\ , This determination to get even with the local Republican bosses was bolster- ed up by the out-of-town speakers who came to increase the courige of the antis. Among the guests of the league were George B. Matthews, proprietor of the Buffalo Express and president of the State McKinley League, Gol. w. C. Plummer and Col. Lovell H. Jerome of New York, both veteran campaigners. 'They all had their knives with them and proceeded to show how they could carve Platt and his crowd up the back. They ~uade many vigorous passes in the air and succeeded in creating not a little merriment at 'the expense of the politi- clans who have held them down for years. Platt was severely arraigned by Mr. Matthews, who has proved himself a hard and successful fighter. He de- clared that the nomination of McKinley meant the end of Platt's reign in this State. He paid his compliments to Senator Elsworth in a vigorous man- ner. The Buffalo editor assured -the McKinley men here that they were on top, and that while he liked them very much, he was disgusted with what was under them. He said the anti-Plaftt men could rest assured that the local machine men could expect nothing in the way of federal patronage if McKin- ley were elected. . th Col. Plummer told a number of good stories in an admirable way, but did not pretend to discuss principles much, He was there to have fun with the bosses and he had it. Col. Jerome followed a similar line, patting the antis here on the back for the good fight they had made and sicking them on the Platt dogs for another round. Altogether the visitors were well entertained and in turn afforded their hosts not a little pleasure. Invitations to the machine men to get into the band-wagon were conspicuous for their absence last night. The gen- eral air of the McKinley men was: \We have all we want in this vehicle and we prefer to have you remain on the out- side.\ They may need a few of the other fellows before the campaign is half ended.
