SIX DIVORCES GRANTED.
.Marital Shucklc Hint Hud llecotne I n
bearable Arc Stricken Off.
Lackawanna county court's divoive
mill was very busy yestcrdny. rMx cou
ples who could nut live contentedly to
gether were disunited by the law, and
they are once more free to remarry
Whom they choose.
Miss Knte K. Shelby gamboled on. the
green shores of Lake Wlnola when she
wus a little girl and oho, one day In her
early womanhood, met Cyrus W. Dean,
and they Ml In love nt llrst sight. On
Sept. 115, INNS, they were married ut
Factoryville by Rev. John H. Harris,
principal of Keystone academy. Hhe
deserted him on May 10, ISM, and has
since remained away from his home.
Judge Edwards set him free.
Annie C. Jones, of Mlnooka, was mar
ried on Sept. 12, 1SSS, to John Evans, of
Taylor, by Kev. Charles Jones, of Tay
lor. He frequently abused her and she
was unable to stand his treatment any
longer than one year. She was granted
a divorce, and warned to make a better
selection the next time.
Margaret A. James and William H.
Thomas were united In marriage at
Ebcrvale, Wules, on Sept. 21, 1S87, and
four days uftt nvard sailed to America.
They settled In Green Ridge, and on
the evening of Xov. Hi of the same
year, the hubby put on his coat, left
the house, and, for all his wife knows,
may be dead now. At any rate she
never heard from him. She was grant
ed a divorce.
Jennie Davis, was married thirteen
yea i a aso to George Davis at Hancock,
N. Y. In 1S!2 George grew cold and de
serted Jennie, Ills own true loved one.
She waited till the clouds rolled by and
sued for a divorce. Court granted it
to her.
Elizabeth Slavin and Robert Kirk
were married at Jermyn on Jan. 3, ISS'J.
Rev. Thomas Piatt, of Jermyn, per
formed the ceremony. Kirk disap
peared immediately after the ceremony

las.t of the deserted wives to get her
wish granted. She was married on Oct.
!), 1870, to Nathan Cobb, of Greenfield.
He left her seven years ago and has
not contributed to her support since.
Judge ICd wards signed the papers which
emancipated her.
THI-Y WERE DISMISSED.
Young Ladles IiJ Not Show Proper Pro
ficiency in Training School.
A pretty muddle will probably be pre
sented for consideration in tomorrow
nlfrht's meeting of the board of con
trol. Last week several young ladles
were dismissed from the training
school under a rule adopted by the
board last summer that training school
scholars might be dismissed If after
throe months' attendance they did not
develop due proficiency.
The parents of the girls dismissed
have solicited the assistance of a num
ber of controllers to get their daughters
reinstated. It being claimed that Miss
Bolce, the principal, was warranted
In her action.
Miss Dolce was upheld In her action
by a majority of the controllers pres
ent at a recent meeting of the teachers'
committee, but several of the members
thought tho matter should be brought
to tho attention of the board. Tommor
row night's meeting will probably act
upon the dlmissals.

Inquire us to 'the death of Hcnjamln
Moloney, a youth 1-' yearn of age, who
was killed on the Erie and Wyoming
railroad near Moo.'.lc street on Satur
day afternoon.
Evidence was given by the gateman
Chait soon -after 'the train No. 19 passed
about ".110 o'clock, on Saturday after
noon, he observed the boy lying on the
track fifteen feet away, but life was ex
tinat. He had not seen anything of the
boy previous -and could not explain how
the accident occurred. The trainmen
and engineer were also examined, but
could not afford any explanation, as
they wore not aware of the accident
until they reached the East Scranton
Junction.
It is presumed that the boy was steal
ing a ride on the oars and that the
brakeman did not observe him, and In
attempting to Jump off at the crossing,
must have slipped under the wheels,
The jury returned a verdict that Renja-
mln Maloney met his death by being
run over by Che train mentioned.

HUNTING FOR A CHILD.

A thrilling child hunt was experienced
last night In Wilkes-Uarre by Asso
elated Charities Agent Mrs. Duggan,
Mrs. A. E. Pettigrew and Patrolman
Melnzer. The assistance of several
Wllkes-Harre policemen fnlled to lo
cate a little H-yeaY-old girl, who, the
Scranton authorities had been In
formed, was being Ill-treated In Wilkes
11a rre.
The girl's father resided In thin city
and upon the death of his wife the
daughter was sent by n Scranton In
stltutlon to a woman named Kerl, who
It was supposed, would make the child
a kind foster mother. When tho Scran
ton party demanded hint night the re
turn of the child the Kerl woman said
the girl had been lost.
upon investigation tho woman s
story was believed to be a misrepre
sentation and the assistance of the
Wilkes-llarre authorities was called
Into requisition. After several hours of
fruitless pearch the Scranton party re
turned on the 10.30 o'clock train. The
hunt for the child will bo continued.

GREEN RIDGE WHEELMEN.
Something About a nourishing Institu
tion and Its History.
Tho GriM-n Ridge wheelmen, a cut of
whose club house appears elsewhere
in this Issue, is one of the most pro
gressive socidl organizations in the
city.
The club was organized June 28, 1892,
in ia small one room building on Penn
avenue, between Green Ridge and
Marion streets, fourteen charter mem
bers being enrolled. The first officers
were: I. L. Rowlson, president; II. R.
Laifihrope, Becrotary and .treasurer; (f.
C. Conrad, captain; R. A. Wambold,
lieutenant. The club continued to oc
cupy its first quarters until Sept. 1,
1894, 'when It moved to its present club
house, 1529 Wyoming avenue.
The building is an exceedingly an
tique affair, as can be seen by the cut,
but is handsomely furnished through
out. It 13 especially adapted to -the
needs of a bicycle club house, standing
as It does, In the mlch'.t of a beautiful
grove a-pprwiched by a cinder parti
from Wyoming avenue. It Is a innst
delightful place In summer, and tiho
wrlos of lawn socials which were held
during June, July and August, proved
a very suecs-snful social feature. The
olub Is nit presc-nt In u flourishing con
dition, financially and otherwise, and
now consists of sixty aotlve membera.
The Green Hldge wheelmen are well
represented on tin? 'track by It. Al Greg
ory and R. V. White, Gregory bolng the
champion one-mile flyer in northeast
ern Pennsylvania. . The club Is justly
proud of the records these two young
men have made.
The present officers are; C. M. Carr,
presidont; E. T. Howe, vice-president;
II. P. Hitchcock, secretary and tre-as-
uror; 1). L. Foote, captain; R. V. White,
lieutenant.
IS NOT ON THE STAGE. S
Father Conway, Lately of Dickson City
Parish, Denies the Scandalous Story.
A column article on the first page of
last Hunday'n Elmlrni Telegram an
nounced that Rev. T. J. Conway, who
until about six months ugo was a

"The Irish Visitor."
Father Conway' has sent a public let
ter to the press signed with his niime
Iji which he denies emphatically the

article. He states that lie is residing
In Brooklyn and living up lo his calling
as a Catholic priest. This will be cheer

OBJECTS THAT ARE IN VIEW
. Campaign of Lducutlon Will Be Inaug
urated to Muko Citizens Gcncrully
Take a More Active and Live In
terest in .Local Affairs. ,
The article In yesterday's Tribune
concerning the organization of an asso
ciation for the Improvement of the
municipal government has excited In
terest In various quarters. Some mem
bers of councils view It as a waste of
lubor and energy, which, they point
out, should be devoted to work apper
taining to church matters and relief of
the poor. Others declare that the pro
moters want to interfere unnecessarily
with public men who devote a consider
able part of their time to the affairs of
the community without compensation.
Ministers of churches In some In
stances do not view the movement
with much favor, as they fear that
politics would be the main point, and
they object strongly to the churches
being allied with uny political move
ment. This evening two Independent
meetings will bo held to consider pre
cisely the same subject. The city union
of the Christian Endeuvor society have
for some time been pushing forward
the project and are now Inviting all
societies of u literary and religious na
ture to Join with them in the move
ment for good local government. The
union believes that In the municipal
government everything depends upon
the character ot the people who have
charge of affairs, and as it is within the
power of the citizens to have Just such
a government as they wish, they will
through the "good citizenship" move
ment, arouse the citizens to their rights
and duties.
Campaign of F.ducatlon.
At first, however, and this is an es
sential point, tiie movement contem
plates an educutlonal campaign, sys
tematic and 'thorough, nin'c from a
Christian standpoint and, abve all,
non-sectarian and non-partisan. Christ
ian Endeavor societies, Epworth
leagues. Father Mathew societies,
Brotherhoods of St. Andrew und all
similar organization, will be invited to
participate in the educational cam
paign.
After this, the work will culminate
In an united effort to elect men of un
questionable habits, principle nnd fit
ness for public, offices, regardless of
parties. One great object will be to tid
politics of all that is- now degrading
and threutenlg the moral welfare of
the city, and to see that the existing
laws are enforced and better ones en
acted.
Several prominent young men will
also meet this evening for the purpose
of considering the desirability of form
ing an association for the distinct pur
pose of working on the same lines as
the celebrated Seventy club, of New
York city.
Prohibition Party, Too.
The Prohibition party, not to be back
ward in its desire to correct any Ir
regularities in the work of our city
futhers, is also discussing with great
enthusiasm the question of good clt
izenship and the Incidental questions.

BANISTER'S,
Of what to buy as Christmas Presents. Xow let us remind you of a
few things that are very useful and durable, and would be very much
appreciated as a gift at this time of the year. Just think of a man's
Mackintosh at $8.00 or $10.00 as good as a $15.00 garment, or an cle
ga nt I'mbrella. We have them mounted with elegant handles, silk
covered, from 1.00 up, and then our Cloak and Fur departments are
full of desirable goods. Do yon know that we have more Cloaks and
Capes in our store than any three stores in the city.
Consequently, ours is the stock to select from and our prices are
right. Almost forgot to mention that we have a splendid line of Neck'
wear, Gloves, Haudkcrchiefs, etc.
