A MUSICAL TREAT.
Temple Quartette Company relighted
. Large Audience Last Night.
A large and fashionable audience ns
. eembled at the Young Men's Christian
association concert hall last evening to
enjoy the exquisite music rendered by
the Temple Quartette Concert com'
pany. This company Is r.aw the pio
neer quartette of America, having been
organized over a period of twenty-
neven years, and comprises E. M.
Spears, first tenor; E. F. Webber, sec
ond tenor; Robert Bruce, baritone and
accompanist, and I B. Merrill, basso.
Miss Fay Davis accompanies the party
OR a reciter.
The concerted pieces rendered were
'The Signal Itesounds," (Buck); part
eonf, "Sunset," (Van de Water), anl
Extravaganza,, by denee. In reply to
encores they gave "Ye Banks and
Braes" and "Walts Song," (W. A. Pot
ter.) The singing of the quartette dis
played perfect blending In the standard
And humorous pieces. In responding
to the encore on the Extravaganza
fney surprised the audience with the
WILLIAMS (y
ID
St-
(5 rim
manner In which they sang the medley.
Apparently It Is an easy performance
to those not Initiated In the art of ren
dering the various ami numerous terms
and phrases of music, but the quartette
not only sang the terms but explained
them In the most skillful manner. Thus
In singing the word crescendo thoy
emitted a volume of sound which could
not be mistaken, but did so In such a
graduated manner that showed great
practice and patience. In the term
De capo one would Imagine them hasti
ly retracing their steps on a forgotten
mission.
Miss Fay Davis stands foremost In
the ranks of reciters, and in each of
the three numbers was encored. Her
characterization of the persons dealt
with were quite realistic, and the
humorous purtu created ripples of
laughter.
JUDGE HANDLE? DEAD.
The Well-Known Scrunton Jurist Pusses
Away at uu Lurly Hour This Morning.
Unconscious for uu Hour Previous to
Death.
Ex-Judge John Hundley died ut 2.30
this morning at his apartments over the
Merchants and Mechanics bank, 4.'0
Lackawanna avenue. He was attended
by Drs. W. E. Allen and N. Y. I.eet.
lie was unconscluus for ubout an hour
previous to Ills denth. Ho mude no
dying requests.
For several days Judge Hundley's
condition hus been serious and since
Wednesday night the doctors consid
ered the case uu alarming and visited
their patient frequently. He has hud
many periods of unconsciousness.
Lust night the carriages of both Dr.
Allen and Dr. Leet were kept wait
ing from 11 to 1 o'clock near the bank
building. Orders were then given the
drivers to go home for the night.
Judge Hundley has not been well
fur over a month. His (list ill turns
were a series of colds, which kept liim
In bed several times for periods of a
day or so, until about two weeks ugo,
when he became affected with a severe
bronchial trouble, and has been In bed
ever since. About a week ago he de
veloped muscular rheumatism, which
was announced In The Tribune at that
time.
It was then rumored that he had had
a stroke of paralysis. Dr. Allen denied
this to a Tribune reporter severul days
ago.
For several days the sick man has
been attended by a professional nurse.
Sketch of Ills Oncer.
Ex-Judge John Handley was for
many years a most conspicuous figure
in the public lifo of this part of the
state. Tall and majestic, he was u
veritable giant physically, while In in
tellect he ranked far above the average
man.
Ho came to Scranton before the war
and soon won for himself a prominent
place In theactlve life of then struggling
and sparsely settled Scranton. He
achieved fame as an advocate at the
bar and became known from one end
of Luzerne county to the other. In
1S74 he was nominated by the Dem
ocrats of Luzerne as their candidate
for Judge and was elected. Of his Ju
dicial career Dr. Holllster's history of
the Lackawanna Valley contains the
following:
"In 1ST4 Hon. John Hundley was elect
ed Judge. He took his seat upon the
bench in 1875 and served faithfully un
til his term expired In ISSf.'i. During
the most critical and exciting period In
the history of Scranton Judge Handley
presided with singular Judicial grace
and ability, and his rulings, covering
thousands of cases, simple and intri
cate, were those, dictated by sound
sense, a clrar perception of law and
Justice and were considered fair to both '
sides. He retired from the bench with
ull the honors earned by the late la
mented JudgesMallory, Jessup, Conyng-
ham and Woodward, of old Luzemo,
carrying with him the respect of th.;
bar and the people, without regnrd to
politics. The time will come when he
will be accorded by all men the place
In tho history of Scranton to which he
Is entitled, as the foremost jurist that
the county has ever produced."
The Division of the County.
In 1.S7S Lackawanna county was
carved out of a portion of Luzerne am)
Benjamin S. Bentley was appointed
president Judge by the governor on Aug.
21 of that year. He organized his courts
on Stfpt. 2, JS7S, over which he presided
until Oct. 14, 1S7S, when the supreme
court decided that he was acting with
out nuthority and ordered a peremp
tory ntnndamus to Judges Harding,
Hundley and Stanton to organize und
open -the courts In Laeknwiinna county,
which they did on Oct. 24. 1S7S.
By the new county act Lackawanna
was to remain In the same Judicial
district us Luzerne, but the act of
March IS, 1S7S. mnde this rounty the
Forty-fifth Judicial district, and John
Handley was assigned as president
Judge.
In 1SR4 Mr. Hnndley sought a . re
nomlnutlon from the Democrats for the
olllce of judge and was opposed by
Edward Merrlfleld. One of the most
exciting conventions In the history of
Lackawanna county followed. Both
Mr. Handley and Mr. Merrlfleld became
candidates. It. W. Archbald was nomi
nated by the Republicans and elected.
After Mr. Handley retired from the
bench he did not take a very active
part l public life and of late years has
rarely left his apartments over the
Merchants and Mechanics' bunk on
Lackawanna avenue.
He was a man of considerable wealth.
Among the properties In this city that
ho owns Is the Wyoming House and
the Marble block on Wyoming avenue.

This is an amount four times greater
than the total received tho day pre

ph'iws a growing and general response
to a popular appeal.

More Schools In Line.
Two other schools have caught tho
good work fever from the example set
by the younger girls of No. 33 school.
Those little women have put their heads
together and will soon report a con
tribution. It may be little or It may
be large, but whatever the sum it will
be as cheerfully acknowledged as a
banker's check for $100. The School of
the Lackawanna and the Scranton
Business college are the two most re
cent schools to fall In line. A move
ment Is on foot In euch of these schools
to collect some nickels and dimes. It
is probable that other schools will not
be outdone, but will begin to gather
together their mites.
The Tribune will keep emphasizing
the fact that no amount is too small to
be useful, and consequently acceptable.
If you can only afford to send 10 cents,
why, send It. Don't delay, but send It
now, today.
While it Is stated that any small con
tribution will be received, this does
not Imply that The Tribune is not look
ing for big enclosures. There are hun
dreds of successful business men whose
tl. $2, tii, $10 or $20 offerings would not
suffer by comparison with the 10 cents
earned by the little fellow who shoveled
snow. This little man's letter was pub
lished in yesterday's issue.

Howls This Plan.
How many of the banks or the large
retail and wholesale stores contain a
Young Men's Christian association
member who can Induce Ms fellow
clerks to club together some kind of a
sum? It's a little thing for a young
man to do for nn association which has
done him so much good.
Here's a brief letter from a young
fellow employed In the Delaware, Lack
awanna and Western car shops:
Editor of The Tribune:
Eight months ugo 1 arrived In Scran
ton from a town near Stroudsbnrg. I put
up at a cheap hotel and looked for work,
but couldn't find It. At the end of four
days I hail $7 left In my purse, but I w is
discouraged. A man In a wholesalo Btore
on Lackawanna avenue told me to go to
the Young Men's Clirlstlun association.
1 did so and Mr. May (Muhy) sent me to a
cheap but good bomillr.g house on Allium
avenue. In two days je sent me to tne su
perintendent nt the enr shops and I've
been it work there since. My wages urn
not much, but I can give 25 cents for tho
Voung Men's Christian association.
Cush,
J He Alight llnvc Dono Worse.
After reading the above letter will
nny bus ness man be reminded of when
ho en me to Scranton looking for woi k.
"Cash" don't say that he Is a m'uiber
of tho association or goes to cliui'cn,
but from the tone of his letter and by
his 2.3 cents It muy be Inferred that
ho Is irrateful ami manly anil morally
clean. If the association's seer.Mury
hadn't helped him "Cash" might nave
done n good deal worse than lie did.
The money for the Finishing; and
Furnishing Fund will be used for Just
what the words Finishing and Furnish
ing Imply and for no other purpose; the
money will directly benefit every Pro
testant, Catholic, Jewish, Irish, English
or (lormi.n member of the association;
It will be Indirectly felt benellclally In
the city, lieeause every good net for the
Youni.' Men's Christian association Is
a good art for the community.

Scranton postolllce. Tho epistle la ad
dressed "Mrs. M. E. Webster, Halmlng-

when asked for news of Wisviewskl,
tho Polunder who murdered a fellow
countryman on Maple street lust Satur
day night.
"Is it true that Wisviewskl has been
traced to Wllkes-Uarre?" was uskud of
the chief.'
"No."
"Have you any Idea whether he bus
left this locality?"
"There is no news of him."
From this It Is indicated that Wis
viewskl has completely covered . his
tracks since two hours after the mur
der or at 11 o'clock Saturday night,
when he called at his sister's house and
obtulned $10 from her. The murderer
Is more than ordinarily good looking
and Is very intelligent. That he is
cunning, also, Is shown by his success
ful effort to elude arrest.
Alice Yankowskl, the murderer's sis
ter, who loaned him $10 to escape, and
Tuniff Ooncuskl, who disappeared the
nHTht of the killing, have been arrest
ed and held an accessories. Three wit

Mr. Frothlngham said yesterday that

CHANCE FOB THE BETTER
I'se of the Aliened Comic Valentine
Growing in Disfavor.
MORE OP PRETTY OXES USED
Mail Carriers Had to Carry Largo Con
signments of them Yesterday to All
Parts of tho Clty-The Ai tistlc
Trifles Eagerly Accepted.
The legs of the faithful letter carrier
and the expectations of many an anx
ious maiden were equally taxed yester
day. It was St. Valentine's day, and
with all its romance, disappointment
and humor was not much different
from similar days in years gone by.
Out on Washington avenue a pretty
miss of o summers and winters
tripped to the front door as she heard
the familiar whlslle of the postman.
She stepped out on the porch us he
hurried up the steps and eagerly
reached for the two letters handed her.
One letter was from her cousin and the
other contained a bill for coal.
"Oh, Mr. Postman," she tried to say
with composure as the letter man
passed out of the gate, "hasn't there
been a mistake?"
"C.uess not; aren't those letters
right V"
"Why, yes. Only I just thought,
you know, maybe you had overlooked
a Very Important letter I expected this
morning."
"Nope. That's nil I've got for
No. ."
"Oh! All right, flood morning."
That astute letter carrier had been
too long In the business currying love
letters, mourning letters, dunning let
ters, good letters, bad letters, awful
letters and sub rosa letters, to be
bluffed by a pretty miss of 19 Hum
mers. He knew she was longing for
a valentine, but he was a model
postman. And lie didn't even smile.
Expected Let tcrCame.
He met her again at the top of the
steps at 2 o'clock, and again the pretty
miss of 1h summers and winters
blushed and said something about
"queer mistake," "awfully provoking."
And the postman didn't smile.
At 5 o'clock he delivered Into her hand
a big square envelope with 11 cents
worth of cancelled stamps on the corner
of It. She blushed slightly, said "thank
you," and hurried back into the house.
And the postman smiled.
So It went ull the day. Some were
disappointed, but many were not, as
shown by the 12,000 valentines which
passed through the Scranton postollice
yesterday to be delivered within tho
city limits.
It was all very nice for the lovelorn
men and maidens, but the post
men didn't like it oven a little bit.
Those 12,000 precious valentines were
of all Bhapes and sizes and would per
sist In mixing themselves up or getting
bent or dropping on the snow. Some
real bud words were said by the letter
carriers und postollice clerks.
What manner of ridiculous and comic
horrors the mails brought to public
ofllcials and men of prominence does
not appear. Of course there were hun
dreds of them, but nobody is saying
anything about it.
Decadence of the l ad.
The horrid, ugly and malicious val
entine was Very much in evidence, and
a large number of them found their
way through the mails, but the olllclala
at the postollice are authority for the
statement that not near so many of
the cheap valentines are mailed ns of
yore.
Superintendent of Carriers W. D.
Roche said yesterday that there Is each
year an increased number used of the
pretty ttilles of lace paper and flowers
that are labeled valentines, and there
is a corresponding decrease in the num
ber of caricatures that pass through
the mailman's hands.
It Is the object of the real valentine
to mnke S"mo one biig'ee i".' "iv '!
nnd for that reason, If no other, de
serves to be known ns a work of nrt.
The alleged comic valentine hns a far
different mission. It Is born of a per
verted mind and Its sole object Is to
wound the feelings of some fellow trav
eler along the thorny road of life; to
ridicule his pet hobby or burlesque the
thing he holds must sacred in lite. The
comic vuleutlne should go, und it is a
hopeful sign of the times tliut Its use
is each year growing less.
KILLARNEY AND THE RHINE.
J. E. Toole und His Company at the Duvls
'I licutcr.
"Killnrney and the Rhino" was very
favorably received by a large audience
at Duvis' theater last evening. The
drama Is characteristic of much Irish
life which imparts considerable mer
riment to the. play.
J. K. Toole Is the center of attraction
and Is u very powerful actor and plays
his part to perfection. The prison
scenes are ndmlrnbly presented and the
tragic situations cause a thrill of sen
sation to pass through the uudlence.

When the advertising atmosphere is so
heavily charged with exaggeration, it
is well to remember who the honest
advertisers are. Windy assertions about
GREAT reductions advertising gooda
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 clothiers tt
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. The
triumph of this store is the triumph of
intelligence, and you have made it so.
Trade has been up to the mark here,
yet there's a touch of attractiveness in
the styles and assortments. We've add-
ed another and more taking attraction
