NEW FIELD FOR USEFULNESS.
Tobyhanna Man Wants Board ot As
soci.lted Charities to Become a
Matrimonial Bureau.
JAKE COXEY. GENERAL
He Is at the Head of the Massillou, 0., Army
o( Crauks.
WILL MARCH ON WASHING f ON
The Associated Charities is a com
paratively uew organisation in this city
and aoiue persons seem to have p ecu
liar notions as to the object for which
it exists, as the various OOmtUUnlov
tloue received by the agent go to show.
A short time i:ice she received a
letter t'roui a resident of Tobyhanna.
refuelling that the society hud him a
wife, and a few dive later the app I
cant for a life pirtuer called at the of
fice of the organisation, lis was a
sight to behold, being blind iu one eye
au t able to only partially see out of
the other. H was thoroughly in earu
earnest, however, in his search for a
wife, and greatly desiied that effort bu
put forth to find him one.
Wbeu asked why he did not select a
wife from among the unmarried ladies
at Tobyhanna he replied oon tempt
nonsly: "The women up there Hre nil Dutch
and the divel a one of thim would 1
have.''
He wai told that be would have b ird
work to find a female in Scranton who
would consent to share his joys and
sorrows, at which he seemed greatly
disappointed, having evidently become
impressed with the idea that wives
were to be had iu this city for the
mere asUiog.
Another correspondent who seems to
have a curious conception as to the
sphere of the Associated charities,
stated the case of a man and wife who
not being able to live together iu con
jugal felicity, have separated and re
quested that an effort be made to
reconcile them. Many other lett-rs
pertaining to m itters equally foreign to
the aims of the orgunizitiou have been
received, but of course no notice is
taken of tbem, the time of the agent,
Mrs W B Uuggan, beiuir fully occu
pied with other duties, a the records
will show.
Yesterday the four hundredth appli
cation for relief was investigated and
tne report filed. To comolete this
work it was necessary for the agent to
make at least )') visits, a taslc of no
small magnitude so it will be per
crived the addition of a matrimonial
buresu is not needed to keep those busy
who have in charge the affairs of the
charity orgauiz ition.

Thomas J. Bilbow wa arretted yes
terilav afternoon on a warrant issued
by Alderman Wright charging bin
with tho embezzlem -jut of city sehool

Several years ago Bilbow was col

Its Vicinity He Was Born at Dan

Is Developing. Into a Dangerous
Crank.
The uiost prominent crank iu tho
country just now is Jake Coxey, of
MshsIIIou, 0 commonly referred to in
print a "tieneral" Coxey, aud who
has organized a movement to Intimi-
late and overawe congress by a dem
onstration of physical force.
He has established headquarters nt
Maaslllou, and his schema is to gather
about i i m a vast army of followers
and then uiitroli to Washington to
peacefully impress upon congress the
immediate necessity of Inning an un
limited volume of irredeemable paper
currency so that no man may suit ir for
want of food, and of stoppiuu' the pay
melit of iiitereat on government bonds
iii order that the country may recover
from the biikruutcy toward which it
is hastening. It is the full development
of the "Ohio idea" that money value
call be given to a piece of paper bear
ing the government mark without any
necessity of piovi ling tor ll redemp
tiou iu specie.
WHO JAKE IS,
1'articulnr interest in this eectiou
centers in the movement! of "(tau

not altogether unkuowu in these parts.

HI second wife was a JHss N:rUor.
Some eighteen year! ago ,1 ike moved
to Mussilloii, O , an 1 became a farmer,
in which occupation it is sail be has
been successful.
'General" Coxey is a Theo-pliilan-
thropist and claims to be in direct
ommunloation with heaven, a has
fathered about him quite an army of
tramps and is in constant receipt of
dispatches from various parts of the

The scheme, crazy as it seems, has
assumed consi lerable proportions.

TWO TWELFTH WARD CONTESTS.
Riht ot James J. Mauley and Mor
gan Sweeney to Sit in City
Councils Disputed.
Contests were begun yesterday
sg iiusl James J. Mauley, select couu
I'ilman, and Morgan Sweeney, com
mon councilman, of the Twelfth ward,
who were returned as the successful
candidates fur these offices at the last
election
John Keurney contests Mr Manley
and Henry W. Coyle, Mr. Sweeney.
The grounds on which they institute
the contests are exactly the same.
They allege that many peraons who
are not citizens, were not registered,
had not paid their state or county tax
within the prescribed time, were not
ot legal age or were not residents of
the ward cast votes for Mr. Mauley
aud Mr. Sweeney, while persona who
wauted to vote for Mr. Kearney and
Mr. iCoyle, but were not registered,
were prevented. from preparing affi
davits that would entitle tbem to do
ao. For these illegal reasons the peti
tions say they were defeated.
Mr. Mauley's majority, according to
the face of the returns, was 31, ami
that of Mr. Sweeney 0. Their peti
tions were ordered filed and the court
fixed April 7 for a bearing.
The outcome of the contest wlil be
watched with great interest and much
teatimony of a decidedly aensational
character is promieed by the contest
ants, who are represented by Attorneys
Connolly and Davis.
