In a very lucid manner she detailed with painful minuteness now Benjamin Kosencranz made love to Mrs. Kute Cross, und how he deulutvd his ab sorbing passion for her und .then fol lowed by giving the refusal of Mrs. Cross and how she explained that she was already married. The manner in which the fatal deed was committed was ulso recounted. Mrs. Baldwin then gave the uge of Kosencranz at 21 and said that the husband of Mrs. Cross was In Kansas. The question was asked by Tom Murray and the replies caused a thrill of sensation. Muny questions of great interest were replied to. With regard to a case which occurred on Wednesday night Professor Baldwin explained that Miss Mury Doll was not the name mentioned as having stolen the jewelry of Miss Roos' daugtiter, but as appeared in Thursday's Tribune the name of "Mary Oilier" was given.

NO ACTION TAKEN YESTERDAY Mr. Gibbons Is After tho Management of tho Elwyn I'ccblo Minded Home with a Sharp Stick Reports from Phy slcians and Supt. Boomer. At a meeting of the poor board held yesterday afternoon Jacob Cohen and T. J. Kelley, a committee of the Board of Associated Charities, were present and were heard. What the gentlemen wanted was to lay before the poor board the matter about the payment of the salary of the assistan t agent of the Associated Chari ties. Mrs. Duggun has so much work on her hands thuit she cannot accom plish it without help, and in these days of suffering among the poor, she Is especially busy. Mrs. Duggan cun at tend to the visits and inquiries about all cases, but she cannot llnd time to make a. record in order that the mem bers will know who has been assisted and so forth. The Hoard of Associated Charities nt a recent meeting' appointed the com mittee to confer with a committee of the poor board with a view to see if life latter would agree to pay the sulary of Mrs. Duggan's nsslstunt. Mr. Cohen addressed the meeting and so did Mr, Keller. They thought that the Asso ciated Charities takes a good deal of business from the poor board; it deuls with cases that the poor board would have to look after 1f there had been no Board of Charities; therefore, they felt that it was not asking too much for the poor board to pay Mrs. Pettl- grew's salary. Opinions of Mombers. Mr. Shotten is chairman of the com mittee appointed by the poor board and he advised the matter to be con tinued until both committees meet and look up the law to see if it may be legal to pay 'fhe salary asked for. There seemed to be a sentiment among the members against the Idea of expend Ing any money for this purpose. Mr. AVUllams jumped to his feet and said the city paid him a salary for his work on the board and he was capable of earning that salary and looking after the poor In his district. Mr. Gibbons did not take the same view; he gave Mrs. Duggan credit for her work. She was doing good work and relieving the poor directors of a good deal of undesirable labor in the shape of visiting houses and neighbor hoods of the poor" where disease Is ram pant. If Mrs. Duggan's work is so heavy that she needs a steady assist ant Mr. Gibbons believed in paying the assistant's salary, that Is if the board can do it legally. On motion of Mr. Shotten the commit tee was continued and a conference of botih committees will come together at a time suitable to the members of both. In order that their report may be read at the next meeting of the poor board. Superintendent Beemer's report o, the farm and almshouse showed that the number remaining In the almshouse on Jan. 31 was 168; males, 121; females, 47. Two died during the month, and 1 were discharged; 2K were admitted. Report of Resident Physicians. The report of Dr. Ben. F. Evans, resi dent physician of the Hillside home. was that there were at the beginning of the year 141 patients In the asylum 8 were discharged during January, and 4 were admitted. Secretary Lymatt said he had received a bill from themanagementof the Home for Feeble Minded Children at Elwyn, The bill was for expenses for the board and support ofchlldren sent from this district. Among the names was that of a girl named Alice Cook, whom the Scranton board never had sent there. Mr. Lynett In writing back took ooca slon to ask the management of the Ehvyn home for rates for the support of any children that may hereafter be sent here, whom the poor board will have to pay for. Made No Answer. The reply received simply stated that a mistake had been made in charging the Item for the support of Alicp Cook to the Scranton poor district, but the information otherwise asked for by Secretary Lynett was totally ignored. Mr. Gibbons moved to appoint a com mlttee of three to see the members of the legislature from this county and impress upon them the necessity of calling the management of the Elwyn home to account for Its overbearing conduct. QJhalrman Langstaff ap pointed on this committee Messrs. Gib bons, Shotten and Murphy. Retiring Treasurer Thomas H. Jones handed over to his successor, D. M. Jones, the sum of 112,903.87. jirorFcaxxot agree. Twelve of Them Slept In the Court House Lost Night.

One Jury has been locked up alnce 3.30 Thursday after noon; the one that heard the suit for damages brought by George Bailey against the borough of Dickson City.

A. of Scrunton-AJfred Hand was the First President. The first Young Men's Christian asso ciation in Scranton was am outgrowth or the religious awukenlng which spread over the whole country in 18.77. it was organized and conducted active ly by some of t he leading men in Scrun ton at that time, among them Joseph 11. Scramton, John Brisbln, Joseph C. Plutit. It continued successfully down EX-JUDGE ALFRED HAND, First President of Y. M. C. A. to about 1SC1, when the religious asso ciations connected with the prosecution of the war largely took the place of this kind of association work. At a meeting called ito consider the question it was with some opposition voted to disband the association. The meetings had then been held In a pleasant and well-appointed room In a building Jn, the rear of the store occu pied 'by Joseph Chase, on the corner of Lackawanna and Wyoming avenues. Alfred Hand -was at that t'lme an active member of the association and, with a few, endeavored to keep tlie association up. It was, however, found to be w.lae to divert the energies of Mil religious organizations intoi care for the health and spiritual Interests Involved In the life and death struggle for the nepuouc. Patriotism ana piety were then concurrent and active virtues. When Ithe association was revived it was with the help of a. kirge number connected with the former organiza tion. In IStiS the present organization was perfected. The first meetings were held In the Penn Avenue Bapttst church. A char ter 'Was procured and the aim was tu make a complete association with a building and all the appointments which the best regulated organizations have. At the ouset a warm and courteous discussion was had on the question whether it Should be placed on a dU inctlvely evangelical tiasls. The vote was overwhelmingly In favor of such a basis, even though it threw some of the most esteemed and cordial workers into the category of associate members The first president elected was Alfred Hand, who has ever since been a prac tical supporter, contributing each year for the support of the association. Ha 19 iiowi one of the trustees of the building. During 'his administration there was a generous and united effort to place the association on permanent foundations, and since that lime it has never failled Jn active, generous and strong supporters.

ANTI-TOXIN IS WANTED Board of Health Considered Matter at the Meeting Yesterday. AGAINST ITBLIC FUNERALS Sanitary Officer Burke Directed to En force Regulation with Regard to Pri vate Funerals M'hen Persons Dio of Contagious Diseases. Consideration of anti-toxin consumed e considerable portion of the time of the 'board of health at its monthly meeting yesterday afternoon. J3r. Fulton was Introduced as a representative of the County Medical society, which recommended at Its lust meeting that the board of health should procure a supply of anti-toxin in order that fxperiments might be made In iScranton to diagnose cases of diphtheria. Dr. Fulton explained the matter briefly. It was pointed out that It would not be necessary to employ a bacteriolo gist, as any physician who had the ex perience of a. laboratory course would bu able to make Ithe diagnosis. Ulti mately ilt was agreed that the sugges tion of the society was a practical one and that a committee consisting of Dr. Bent ley. Dr. Paine and Dr. Allen be appointed to confer with representa tives of the society. Cases Deported During Month. Secretary Brlggs reported that the following cases had been reported dur ing the past month: Diphtheria, 15; scarlet fever, 12; typhoid, 3; measles, 1; total, 31.

Dr. Allen, the health officer, present ed a report, In which he referred to the precautions Which should be taken in cases of funerals of persons who had died from contagious diseases and it was decided that Captain Burke, the sanitary officer, should notify the per sons interested that public funerals are prohibited on such occasions, and that he should attend when such funerals are held to observe that the law is not infringed. In case of more than one funeral occurring at the same time It was decided that Mayor Connell should be asked to assign special offi cers. Meeting of State Hoard. Dr. Allen reported that at the recent meeting of the State Associated Health Authorities of Pennsylvania, a great part of the time was taken up in ar ranging for legislation in regard to milk and water, and the establish ing of township hoards of health. It was altogether probable that the ShakeKeare bill 'In regard to milk would be passed and all health boards would be thankf.ul in case it was. Inspector Thomas presented his re port, ju which, referring to the analysis of milk, he said: "I found some cases milk that had been watered and in some cases skimmed. Perhaps too much brewing grain is being fed to the cows and Js the cause of some of the milk failing to come up to standard. Adulteration of milk has, however, been principally carried on outside the city limits." A CABMAX INJURED. Patrick Planncry Throw n from a Cab and Seriously Injured.

Windy assertions about GREAT reductionS'-advertising goods at impossible prices, find no lodging place in the minds of intelligent people. Dull trade throughout the legitimate business season may make necessary, wild statements from some clothiersjto attract trade, but the schemers will have to scheme harder and find new disguises for their lame excuses before they can stop the people from coming to this store for honest values.
