Ozone Delightful Scenery, Excel
lent Music, Eloquent Orations and
Terpsichorean Sports the Features
of the Event Large Attendance and
General Good Time.
Members of the Masonio fraternity of
the Lackawanna valley and their wives
and sweethearts enjoyed a ploasunible
outing yesterday on the occasion of the
first annual reunion of the masons be
tween llouesdule und Wiikes-Barre,
which wns held at Furviaw in oou junc
tion with the uiasoiiB of Eastern New
York, who cuuie under auspices of
Walton lodge.
The excurjiou train loft the new
Delaware und Hudson station at 9
o'clock n. m., nnd was quite well fillod
with passangers armed with lunch bas
kets and other equipments of the pic
nio season.
The Scranton excursion party was in
charge of a committee from Green
Ridge lodge, No. fi!)7, composed of tho
following: li. A. Zimmerman, presi
dent; C. S. Seamune, treasurer! V. L.
Carr, secretary. and John U.
Hopewell, E. E. Teal, E. B. Franklin,
T. Flitcroft, George M, Watson, D. J.
Newman, F. L. i'hillip, J. V. Gar
ney, Jr., T. It. Hughes, II M. Cole. II.
W. Hull, B. T. Jayne ana Dr. Arndt,
who had all arrangements for the en
tertainment of the excursionists per
fected with oare.
The train was additionally burdened
with passengers from the stations be
tween Scranton and Curbondale, and
when the Pioneer City was reached, it
carried about 300 excursionists. The
Carbondale Masons and their families
were crowded on the platforms at the
Delaware and Hudson station in that
city and reinforced the pilgrim to a
marked extent, as the pleasure seekers
boarded the open cars on the gravity.
OVEK TIIK MOUNTAIN'S.
As the sections of the train climbed
the planes, whose tracks wore fringed
with foliage, and the invigorating
mountain breezes, swept through
leafy branches of the forest, the spirits
of the excursionists became correspond
ingly exhilerated, and a jollier party
probably never visited Farview than
the hnppy throng that alighted from
tlie long train on the picnic ground at
10 30.
The visitors scattered about the
spacious park with lunch baskets and
many were soon discussing the good
thin us in store while others tripped iu
the dance to excellent music furnished
by the Mozart orchestra, of Carbondale,
that accompanied the excursion.
The New York visitors arrived via.
Carbondale at 11.39 and the party in
cluded about 250 Indies and gentlemen.
The New York excursion was in chargo
of Walton lodge. They were welcomed
by Mr. Flitcroft, of the Ontario and
Western, und others of the entertain
ment committee, and with the other
pleasure seekers pushed an enjoyable
day until 5.30, trie hour of their de
parture. iionesdaie and tne otuer Wayne
county towns along the line of the
Gravity road were well represented on
the grounds.
Among the prominent ecrantonians
and political candidates present were;
Hon. John 11. fellows, George Ukell,
Prothouotury Pryor, H. L. Ilalstead,
William Frantz, J. Elliot Ross, United
States Commissioner A J. Colborn, jr.,
uoipu Atnerton, secretary or tne board
of trade; Alex Simpson, W, K. Bck,
of Moscow: W. H. Holmes, John
Thomas.
ARRANGEMENTS AT TUG GROUNDS.
At the picnic grounds careful prep
arations bad been made for the com
fort and enjoymeot of guests, Large
barrels of lue water were situated at
convenient points and ample accommo
dation in the way of luueh counters
wus found, where those not provided
with baskets could procure the neces
saries of good quality at reasonable
rates.
The day was passed quietly after
the manner of the Sunday school pic
nic, and though every facility was of
fered there were few amusements save
dancing and throwing balls at e flu is
of "Susie," which enabled the ambi
tious person who was successful
enough to hit one of the dolls au op
portunity to smoke a very bad cigar
tree or charge, in most instances it
appeared easier to bit the mark with a
base bull than to derive enjoyment
from the cigar.
At 2 o'clock the majority of excur
sionists gathered near the main pavil-
Hon and listened to an address by
Right Worthy District Grand Master
C, W. Wickwire, of Waltou.
Out of door spurts were broken un by
rain later in the afternoon, but there
was ample shelter upon the grounds
for all until train time.
Many of the New York visitors dur
ing the day visited Honesdale and all
were delighted with the beautiful
scenery along the gravity line and ex
pressed themselves as well pleased with
the day's outing. The excursion train
arrived In this city on its return at
7 o'clock last evening.
MAY DIICOME AN ANNUAL AFFAIR.
The New York Masons have bold
annual reunions for soveral years past.
but yesterday's event was tho first of
the kind ever held by Lackawanna
masons The enjoyable features, how
ever, will probably stimulate Masonio
brethren to other enterprises of that
nature and annual gatherings of tho
fraternity and their friends will doubt
less be among the pleasant recurring
events or tne outing season,
WILL TRY BLOCK SYSTEM.
Soranton Traction Company to Teat Its
Efflolenoy.
The Scranton Traction company will
soon inaugurate a tost of the block sig
nal system on four switches of the
Providence line, and if the preliminary
trial is satisfactory, the entire liue will
be cqulppsd for a filial test. Several
weeks ago a system of automatio sig
nals was tried, but proved unsatisfac
tory. The block system consists of a red
and white light at each signal switch,
and is operated by band from one point
to another. A oondnotor of an outward
bound oar will turn a lever from the
signal box which will display a red
light at the next switch beyond, thai
slopping any inward bound car from
leaving that point. If the motorman
cf an ontward bound oar should see a
white light displayed he would know
that a car ws coming from the twitch
beyond and Would wH until, i( had
passed before proceeding. '
The trial will probably be started
within the nixt tea days, the signal
boxes to be located at Mulberry street
and Peun avenue, the Dickson switoh,
the Base Bull park and the diamond
switch.
COST SIX HUNDRED.
Sum Paid for Eight of War Through
Taylor.
The Scranton and Pittston Traction
company was yesterday granted the
right of way through the borongh of
Taylor for $000. Right of way bad
been previously granted free by the
supervisors of Old Forge and Lacka
wanna township,
Yesterday's agreement was made by
Lemuel Ammennau representing the
company, and Burgess W. P. Grifilths
and Attorney John M. Harris for the
borough. The contract binds the-
borough to grade the streot according
to the survey and profile recently es
tablished, but is considered advantage
ous to the borough from the fact that
the previous agreement had given the
right of way free.
Wednesday Contractor P. o. rage,
who is constructing tho Pittston ex
tension, was Invited in the work, aud
was again stopped when ho attempted
to resume yesterday. Now that tin
agreement has been made the work
will be continued.
DGCTOll IS AliGXJSED.
Proposes to Make It Interesting for
the Elmira Budget and Bar
tender George Kerl.
Dr. Haggerty evidently does not take
kindly to the notorioty he was given in
connection with tho pool shop casos for
he, yesterday, caused the arrest of sev
eral of the parties who wore instru
mautal in giving hitn this notoriety.
George Kerr, who bad the doctor ar
rested iu connection with running a
bucket-shop, was yestordav arrestod at
the instance of Doctor Haggerty, on
the charge of selling liquor on Sunday.
Kerr is a bartender at the Conway
House. The doctor also had John Nil
and, correspondent of the Elmira Sun
day Budget, arrested for selling papers
on Sunday, contrary to the act of
assembly ot 1704, commonly known as
tho Bine Laws.
Niland gaiued tho enmity of the doc
tor by printing a sensational accouut
of the affair iu which he made Doctor
Haggerty the principal character. He
hIso posted a bulletin la front of tho
Budget oQlce last Saturday announcing
iu bold letters that the next issue of
the Budget would cojtuin an account
of Dr. Huggerty's bearing. This caught
the doctor's eye and he had Niland ar
rested and fined $3 for obstructing the
sidewalk with the bulletin board.
Kerl wus held in $500 bail by AUor
man Fuller, P. J. Conway becoming his
bondsman. Niland, upon the advice
of his attorney, John B. Collings, paid
the fine of $1 und $3 costs.
The doctor alio wanted to swear out
warrants for the arrest of a score or
more of newsbovs who sell the Budget,
but after a consultation with the
Mldermau he decided not to do so,
However, he caused a warrant to be
issued for Joseph Davis, the Taylor
agent of the Budget.
Doctor Huggorty announces that be
will eive the Budget people no rest.
He suys he will arrest any man or boy
caught selling" the hlmlra liudgot on
Sunday, and will prevent entirely the
sale of that paper in this city on the
Sabbath.
AN ANCIENT CHILD.
Being Supported by the Poor Dlstriot at
Elwyn Homo.
The Elwyn Home, situated in Ches
ter county, is an institution whore
feeble minded children are given a
course ot training fitting their peculiar
condition. The Scranton poor district,
since its incorporation, has bjen in the
habit of sending from time to time
feeble minded children to this institu
tion and paying a largs sum for their
maintenance and care. At presont
eight are being cared for there at tho
expense of this district.
Recently, several applications have
ben made to the poor board to take
care of feeble minded children, one
case having come np at the lust meet
ing of the board. Ibis bronght the
Elwyn Home to the attention of th
board and a committee, consisting of
John Gibbons and Daniel Williams
and Superintendent Boomer, was ap
pointed to consider and report on the
matter.
This committee bas discovered that
one af the children whom Scranton is
supporting at Elwyn is 21 years of age,
and two others are neurly out of their
teens. The committee considers this a
wuBte of money, as theie "children"
have received all the benefit that can
be derived from the treatment at El-
wvn, which is ouly for ohildren, and
consequently they will recommend
thut tne district refuse to support them
any longer unless their friends are sat
isfied to place them in the Hillside
Home. The committee will go to
Elwyn next week to take the older pu
tients away and make room for the
feeble minded children who have of
lute yoars become a charge on the dis
trict.

SOLICITOR TORREY ON CITY WORK
A Terse Opinion on the Employment
of Citizens Only in the Construction

for a Public Bathing Place at Nay
Aug Park The Question of Grades.
The Roarlug Brook bridge ordinance
with pluns attached was called up on
third und final reuding at the regular
meeting of select council last evening
and unanimously passed. The pussage
of thiB ordinance has been delayed
about three months, owing to the fact
that the plans did not accompany it.
Now that they did accompany it, not a
councilman looked at them, The
ordinauco was not oven opened, the
clerk reading it from a duplicate copy.
Mr. McCaiin naked whether or not
the consnltlti engineer that ha d been
rovided for by a previous ordinanco
had upprored of the pUns. Mr. Roche
answrriid his inquiry by stating that
the consulting engineer had not been
selected us yet, but that the intention
was that he be chosen alter the ordi
nance had passed select counoil, and if
be had any changes to mutte in the
plans the ordinance could be amended
in eommon council and referred back
to the select for concurrence.
The following communication which
explains itself was received from City
Solicitor Torrey:
MR. TORREY'S OPINION.
To the Honorable the Select and Common
Councils of the city of Scranton:
Gentljien: In compliance with your
request contained iu resolution of July 12,
ult.. for an oninion as to whether or not
connclls can legally stipulate in the bridges
ordinance that the contractors shall em
ploy none but citizens of Scranton in the
erection of the Linden streot and Roaring
brook bridges, would say:
I am of the opinion that the councils
can bv ordinance direct what character of
persons shall be employed in labor done
directly for the city under the supervision
of its heads of departments; but I do not
think the council would have power to
control by ordinance the right ot an inde
pendent contractor to employ such labor
hi he sees lit.
Yory respoctfully yours.

Cann s suggestion, action upon
it was postponed until Mr.
Sanderson can be consulted as to
whether or not the establishing
of a grade at this point would make
any trouble for property holders who
may have already graded. Mr. McCaun
intimated that there bad been too
much of this establishing of grades

ELM PARK OUTING.

Yesterday was just the d iy for n pic
nic, and when the Sunday school of
Elm Park met at the new Delaware
and Hudson depot it was evident thut
tho signs were ritfht for ono of those
delightful events which always exist
when there is a hnppy adjustment ol
people and incidents.
Superintendent Wood and Mr. Yost,
of the Lebigli Valley company, wore
conspicuous in their efforts to make
