CHARGE TO TKE GRAND JURY
ItKas Delivered by' Judge Edwards
in tticMain Court Room.,
DICKERT AITOIXTED FOREMAX
Today the Jury Will Consider Petitions
for Bridges nnd Tomorrow the Matter
of Creating a Borough ot Dalton
Will Bo Tukcn Vp.
The grand Jury met in the main court
room yesterday morning and was in
structed by Jurge Edwards as to the
duties the members would be called
upon to perform during the period they
would be In the employ of the county.
He carefully went over the process by
which criminal matters are brought to
the attention of the grand jury and told
them they were at liberty to inquire
Into any violation of the laws of the
commonwealth that came under their
observation, even if the information wus
not brought to them through the usual
legal channels.
It was the duty of the jurors,
he said, to be entirely im
partial and not allow themselves
to be swayed' in the disposi
tion of cases by either fear or
favor. A great res,posibllity is placed
In the hands of the grand Jurors, a fact
which those he was addressing should
keep in mind during their deliberations.
Judge Edwards then lucidly explained
the manner In which costs Bhould be
disposed of after a conclusion had been
reaphed with regard to the merits of
a case. He closed by appointing F. J.
Dicker foreman.
M ill Not Be Burdened.
The present grand jury will not be
over-burdened. It Is only six weeks
since the last grand jury was in session
and the transcripts now in posses
sion are not very numerous. Today the
jury will have to pass upon a number
of petitions for bridges, and tomorrow
the petition asking for the creation of
the borough of Dalton will be consid
ered. Several constables mode their reports,
but none of them were aware of any
violations of the law in the districts
that they are presumed to watch. Con
stable J. W. Clark, of the Elghteeenth,
was questioned closely by Judge Ed
wards concerning a place that had been
reported as a tipping house, and of
which, it was allegedClark had knowl
edge. The constable denied that this
was true.
ABDUCTORS GO FREE.
Expected Evidence Against Them Did Not
Arrive from New York.
The two foreigners who since lasft
Friday have been in the custody of the
police on the charge of kidnapping a
boy from Montevideo, South America,
were yesterday released on the decision
of Judge Edwards.
The Frenchman, Jacques, and the
Italian woman, Seraflna Canate, had
been arrested on Information received
from the Argentine consul general In
New York, who alleged that the boy
was abducted in January, 1893. After
the arrest of the pair, Joseph Church,
of the North End, became Interested in
the case and engaged as counsel Huls-
lander & Vosburg and John M. Corbett,
who obtained a writ of habeas corpus
on Monday.
At the hearing before Judge Edwards
yesterday the'chlef f pollccsubmltt!
evidence, that the Argentines consul In
New York had been notified of the ar
rest, but no reply had been received.
Judge Edwards ordered the prisoners
released, but held that their arrest had
been Justifiable.
DISEASE ON TIIE INCREASE.
Large Number of Contagious Cases Has
Been Reported.
An unusual large number of reports
of contagious diseases are being re
ceived by the board of health. More
cases have developed during the last
three days than during all of last week,
and if the ratio continues, the number
of new cases and deaths will, during
November, be greatly in excess of the
record of last month.
On Monday were reported three cases
of diphtheria and one of typhoid, on
Tuesday six cases of typhoid, and yes
terday four cases of typhoid. Scarlet
fever prevails In ' the 500 block on
Adams avenue, but no official report has
been made to the board of health.
Health officials contend that the' pro
nounced increase in the number of con
tagious cases Is spasmodic and will not
continue for a long period.
The existing cases are not confined to
any particular section of the city, and,
excepting two instances, only one case
prevails In a house.
HE IS AN IMPOSTER.
An Imp:cunIous Individual Who Is Sub
sisting on Charity.
Several complaints have been made
of a man, presumably of German ex
traction, who Is soliciting pecuniary as
sistance from various people In the city,
and who, it is alleged, is an Impostor.
. His method of operations is to unfold
a plausible tale that he has been recom
mended by some well known citizen to
seek the aid of the person he approaches,
and paves the way by stating that he has
heard of h'is great generosity, and winds
up by expressing a consuming desire to
obtain work as a printer and various
other trades.
In several cases his blarney has netted
him a few dollars, and work has been
obtained, but he always sleeps late and
loses his Job. He is unable to speak
English fluently.
MORAN WAS UNWISE.
Ho Tried to Move a Police Officer and
Was Unsuccessful.
Frank Moran, of Irving avenue, Is an
ardent Democrat and on Tuesday his
political zeal outran his discretion.
Lieutenant Zang was standing near one
of the South Side polling stations when
Frank marched up In a' pompous style
to the lieutenant and ordered him to
rid the political circle of his presence..
Lieutenant Zang did no leave, but on
the contrary, .intimated to Mr. Moran
that it would be advisable for him to
"mind his own affairs." Thls braced
Mr. Moran up to another effort, and he
challenged Mr.- Zang, or any other of
ficer, to arrest Mm, The challenge was
acecpted and yesterday $3 was paid by
Mr. Moran as the cost of his pomposity.

hla arguments, was fined )5 yesterday
and received a caution to make his
political speeches without the aid of a
revolver In future.

Michael Morsey, a trio from Raymond

cities where they ought to be, yet the
field Is ours and will be occupied as our
faith triumphs over difficulties.
"New rooms have been taken in a
number of cities where a better location
and increasedspace 'were needed; the
iunlor work is being developed; the
educational classes are well attended;

comfort and social relaxation to thou
sands of bread-winners; Ulble' study is
more and more assuming Its rightful
place at the forefront of all of the de

Special Correspondence of Tho Tribune.
Llandaff, Oct. 14.
I have Just had a delightful day here
in Llandaff, one of the oldest of all
cathedral towns In the kingdom, and i
very interesting place. Of course, most
of the Interest centers In the old cathe
dral here, where we attended divine
service in the morning. There were
some very line choristers' there, whose
singing I must acknowledge I enjoyed
very much. The dean, instead of the
old bishop, preached a sermon, und after
the Bervice my friend and I walked
around the building a bit, which ex
ploration I enjoyed very much. The
old care-taker informed me that the
edifice dated back as "far as the fourth
century; that It had been twice de
stroyed and afterward rebuilt. A pile
of ivy-covered stones, which would
have set a bona-flde ruin worshipper
wild with delight, was pointed out to
me as the remains of the palace In
which all the first records of the church
perished at the time when Owen Glan
dow, the famous North Wales fighting
prince, destroyed the place by fire
hundreds of year3 ago. e saw
too, , In the cathedral building
two ragged old flags which some
one carried in tne wars or un;
Roses. The grounds about the cathe
dral are quite beautiful. I Buppose
they are kept by some landscape gar
dener, as also Is the btshop'B court, a
magnificently wooded placo in which
stands his palace and some other bulld-
ngs connected with the church. We
were taken by the care-taker to see the
deanery, which, she told us, has as
many windows In It, but one, as the
year has days. The grounds here are
models of elegance and beauty, too,
and I could not help wondering, seeing
all these separate and beautiful build
ings, and remembering all the different
clergymen, clerks, choristers, the dean.
the bishop, the sacristan, and all the
other people connected with this cathe
dral, If It did not take an Immense
amount of ecclesiastical machinery
with the attendant machinists to keep
up a cathedral.
I had noticed, a very large number of
fashionable people at service and sev
eral very smart equipages at the gates
afterward, and upon asking the care
taker if all this large congregation
came from Llandaff and near by she

drove over to service from Cardiff, as

Beautiful' Decorations.
Some of the decorations of this struc
ture are very fine, Indeed. The old
woman showed me where the Norman
part of the building was joined to the
old Roman building, and I could only
be sorry, while looking over the many
beautltles of the palace, that the ob
server was not some poor student of
architecture who would understand
and enjoy so much more than I the at
tractions of such a splendid old build
Ing.
We walked homo to dinner through
the fields, and on " the way caught n
fine view of Castle Cock, or Red Cus
tie, which Is romantically perched up
on the top of a precipice somewhere be
tween Cardiff and Pont-y-Prldd, but
which cannot be seen at all from the
latter place. This particular castle, my
friend Informed me, belongs to the
Marquis of Bute, whose country house
and estates I had a glimpse of yester
day, and who enjoys the distinction
of possessing no less than twelve cas
tles throughout England, Wales and
Scotland. I do not want to talk gulde
booky, and, by the way, I haven't
looked Into a guide-book once since
being over here I like best to listen to
the stories the people here tell about
places, they are so interesting and not
cut-up-and-drled into a book but I
can't help mentioning what a loqun
clous old man whom I asked nbout It
told me; that It was, of course, very
old. Oh, very old, he said, and had
been one of the strongest fortifications
In Wales, and had sheltered an army
with their provisions, and sheep and
cattle and horses for three years, while
Is was undergoing siege, until, at last,
Edward the Third came with Ills bat
tering rams and knocked it down. He
showed me just where It had given
way, and I was very much Interested In
the old place, which has been restored
by the Marquis' father, the former
Marquis of Bute, to Its former appear
ance and strength. I should like to get
up to It once and look around mo from
up there . I fancy one can see almost
all of South Wales from its position,
Ancient Beacon Mounds.
My oia friend showed me a great
many interesting things at Llandaff
yesterday. He pointed out to me the
mountain all around ithe valley, In
which we were, and drew my attention
to occasional little mounds or humps.
which I had not noticed before, but
which are distinctly visible on the hnrl
zon. i supposed they were part of the
outline of the mountain tops, but he told
me how long ago they had been beacons,
which were then used for signalling
over the country any Intelligence of Im
portance. Whenever a band of pirates
or robbers would land on the south
coast , the people near the coast would
hnsten to light the beacon on top of the
nearest mountain. Then the Inhabl
tants of the valley beyond saw and un
derstood It, and lighted the fires on the
next range of hills, and so on the Intel
ligence would go from the coast to the
Interior, till It reached way up Into
North Wales In a single night or two.
and when the robbers and Invaders com,
menced their operations they found the
alert Welshmen quite ready for them.

Tho Concert Tour Extended.
Abertlllery, Oct. 15. Today we started
out early In the afternoon for Abertll-
lery.where we gave a very well-attended
concert tonight. The Journey consumed
the whole, half-day, but was quite an
Interesting one, nevertheless. We were
met at Newport by Miss Driscoll, who
will be remembered by many Wllkes
Barreans as the star contralto of Mrs.
Davles' organization, and who mude
many devoted friends during her short
stay In that city last autumn. We
were .informed .'today, too, that ,we
have also a concert at Newport, which,
by the way, will extend tho tour to the
twenty-fifth instead of the twenty
fourth, as before arranged. As this
will positively be our lust concert of
the series, It Is to be a very fine one, and
we are all going to perforin the most
elaborate numbers, wear our prettl-"!
gowns, and have the American flag
printed upon the programme and the
posters. The American consul at Car
diff, Mr. Howells, and also Mr. Heard,
the American consul at Newport, are
expected to honor the event with their.1
presence quite an appropriate pair of
auditors for our furewell concert in
Wales. Oh, yes, and the one big gran
dee of this part of the country, Lord
Tredegor, has promised to come also,
and that will insure a very fashionable
audience, of course. We passed -today
through his estate on our way here on
the Great Western, and I had the
happiness of seeing, oh, a great number
of real live deer, ifeedlng In one of his
parks! Some of them had great large
antlers, and really were the most beau
tiful and graceful animals I ever saw,
while the little fawns, feeding around
on the grass and running about, fairly
made one laugh with delight.
We had a very nice opara house to
sing in tonight, and a lovely Bech-
steln grand piano for it, too. Some
pianos which we find around In concert
halls and opera houses are not always
of tha finest, we find, so you may be
sure we enjoyed singing with this more
than usual. We had an audience of
about 800, white the Mendelssohn Parry
company, which performed here not
long ago, were blessed with only about
twenty or thirty in the audience. All
of our numbers were very well received,
many of us being forced to respond to
encores, but I cannot think of anything
unusual to say about the concert, be
cause there wasn't anything. It was
Just the same as the proceeding ones,
and we are becoming so accustomed to
concert-giving night after night that I
fear we are In danger of growing rather
blase about It.
Tho Crumlin Viaduct.
Cardigan, Oct. 17. We are now at the
other end of Wales, having taken a
considerable railroad Jump yesterday.
We left Abertlllery In the morning and
traveled all day across the country,
catching glimpses of many points of
Interest on tho way. We had a fine
view of the famous Crumlin vluduct, an
Illustration of which appeared in tho
Scientific American some years ago,
during process of construction. It cer
tainly is a wonderful piece of work, and
one looks at this fairy-like piece of
Irnn wnrlr rnthnr lil-OHth1Hslv tt-hfti
they see It lor the first time, spanning
a valley 280 feet deep, and of consider
able width, too, from hill to hill. As
we flew along we caught the best view
we have had, so fur, of the country
home and estates of Lord Abcrdare,
the greatest man In Wales today on ac
count of the many changes he has
wrought here for the good of the com
mon people. He rs honored all over
the country, and enjoys the reputation
of having done more for the cause of
higher education In Wales than any
other man In the Kingdom. Further
on we saw Neath abbey, an old ruin at
Neath, where we are to hold forth one
night next week, I believe. Oystw-
mouth castle, of the time of Cromwell,
claimed momentary attention as we
flew past it, as also did the Kidwelly
custle and some more. It Is surprising
how many different appellations people
bestow upon this country, as the much
churched country, the land of song,
the land of hills, and so forth; and it
must be acknowledged that when one
travels from end to end of it, seeing ab
beys, palaces, all thousands of years
old and fallen to decay, he Is moved to
say it Is the land of ruins, or the land of
old things, and so on. One of our party
Jokingly says England and Wales Is
the "lund of Muzawattee tea" because
of the Innumerable signs scattered all
over the Kingdom and advertising this
beverage, and by the way, the manner
In which the merits of all soaps, coffes,
teas, etc., are placarded and thrust upon
one's tired notice over here .strikes us
as very Yankeefied and very enter
prising. The entrances and exits to
the railway Btntions are Invariably all
advertised up, and we are so used to It
now that when we pull Into a station
wo know only too well that we shall
now be Informed -of the peculiar ad
vantages of using Hudson's soap, or
admonished to drink only Mazawattee
tea and coffee,' or that Pear's soap Is
"matchless for the hands and com
plexion." Of course It can be Imagined
that, ofter reading that little mer.sage
of Madame Pattl's to us, in the backs of
the magazines, for these last ten yenrs,
we cannot be blamed for feeling rather
bored, to say the leaBt, when" over here
it Btares us In the face at every turn.

her hnnds and complexion with It, nor
grown so fond of It that she had to let

In evening dress, the audience present
ing an extremely fashionable and bril
liant appearance. Our reception was
very cordlul, some of the people whom
we met after the concert speaking of it
In an exceedingly congratulatory way.
We perform tonight here at Cardigan,
which Is quite an old and Interesting
town. The hotel we are In Is one of the
cutest, quaintest, handsomest old
buildings wo have been In. Last week
we snatched a rest from work and did
some sight-seeing. Meeting yesterday,
on the way to the Abertlllery concert,
we all compared notes and told of the
different things we had seen. Most of
the Scrantonlons.took a little run up
Into Ireland and saw the cities of Cork,
Qucenstowh, Dublin, and took In the
lakes of Killarney, returning by North
Wales way, and doing many points of
Interest there. They are slnjply en
thusiastic -about that country .and Its
people and the lovely scenery they saw.
They also had the pleasure, while In
Dublin, of hearing Verdi's last opera,
"FalBtaff," porformed there at the Dub
lin opera house by Sir Augustus Har
ris' London company, which, of course,
everyone knows always has the finest
artists, orchestra, costuming, etc., that
can be had. In this world. They enjoyed
It Immensely, they say, and admired
the opera, which has never yet been
produced In America, but which will be
In New York this winter, very much.
They speak In glowing tern : of. the
fine musical taste and extremely close
attention of the Dublin audience, as
well.
An Adventurous Tenor. -Mr.
Anwyl meanwhile visited his old
home In North Wales, and tells very
interesting tales of the castles which
he "did" five in all Conway, Beau-
maris, Criccleth, Carnavon, Dolbadarn,
and last of all, Harlech, of which Mr.
Anwyl's grandfather has been the keep
er for the past forty years. Fifteen
years ago, when Mr. Anwyl was here
last, he succeeded in reaching the flag
pole of the highest tower In this castle,
a very dangerous feat, as It necessi
tated a steep and perilous climb, at the
top of which was -a Jump across an
abyss as deep as the tower Is high. Mr.
Anwyl's father, who has charge of the
castle now, informs him that he was
the last person for these pact fifteen
years, who succeeded In doing all of
the climbing necessary to reach the pole
at the end. It haB been attempted by
a great many tourists Blnce then, but
Is such a dangerous feat that It has not
been successfully performed since he
did it last. Of course we all congratu
late Mr. Anwyl.
When he started north Mr. Anwyl
was possessed of a very nice, strong
pair of over-shoes, which, by the way,
are very little worn over here, and In
some rural parts entirely unknown.
Upon his return he showed us un
ominous-looking crack In one of these
well-cared for "goloshes," and we
naturally supposed that he must have
done a great deal of walking in the wet
fields or rough woods; but no, Mr.
Anwyl proceeded to tell us, that on the
morning after his arrival homo he hap
pened to glance out of the door and saw
a dear old retainer of his mother's
household polishing, as he thought, the
shoes of the men of the house, which
task Is one of the women servants' dally
morning duties, always, over here.
However, he noticed that she brushed,
and brushed one of them very long,
and frequently resorted to the bluck-ing-box
for a fresh supply of polish for
those troublesome shoes. All at once
he looked at tho shoe in question and
saw that it was one of his much-prized
rubber overshoes, and just as he went
to ask her what was the matter, she
turned around in great sorrow and per
plexity, explaining, "Oh, Anwyl bach
(little), It gets dirtier and dirtier all the
time!"
"That's how," Mr. Anwyl says, run-
fully, "that hole came in my overshoe."-
Singers Go Exploring.
Mr. and Mrs. Burns, during the same
time, took a little run up to Ireland tn
do pome sight-seeing. They visited
Cork, near which city Mr. Burns was
born, and where there was a great cele
bration and illumination going on, It
being the anniversary of the birthday
of that great temperance pioneer,
Father Mathew. They, of course, did
Blarney castle and other points of In
terest, and returned home, as did the
others, extremely well pleased with
their Ireland visit, about which they
themselves will write at more length
and certainly more entertainingly.
We sing for the remainder of tills--week
at Fishguard, a coast town, and
Pontardarrle, near Swansea, where we
expect to spend the coming Sunday.
We are all very well and happy, and
are Bllll enjoying our experiences of
Wales, although We shall all be very
glad, Indeed, to come back to our bust
ling, hustling Scranton and Wilkes
Barre atmosphere again. We have not
much longer to stay'. Mr. Evans has
refused several dateB ,the acceptance of
