The Snlting of Car Tracks.
Editor of The Tribune.
Sir We always appeal to you when we
don't know where else to go to have our
hard questions answered or our griev
ances redressed. Just now It is In regard
to the traction company. We all realize
rthe necessity to our busy city of having
street cars operated with regularity, ncv-r
more fully than on a morning following
Dig snow storm, our traction company
shows commendable dtllKcnce and enter
prise In this direction, and no fault can be
found with Its promptness. A uuestlon
however, which I know to be aultatlng
the minds of a number of public spirited
citizens Is, do they invade the rights of
others by the methods employed In doln
this?
It needs but a casunl Klanee at the
streets occupier) by the street car rails to
see the method und Its results. Lare
quantities of salt (labeled sand) are dis
tributed for the purpose of dissolving the
snow near the rail, and If It could be kept
near the rail perhaps will. But how Is it
practically? Hy the time the electric
weeper- has passed that way twice all th
snow between curbs on that street has
been salted until it is no lont?er beautiful
We certainly can all aaree as to that. 1
think everybody will admit also that it Is
a great Impediment to every kind of travel
aim iramc except, perhaps, street car
travel for snow mixed with salt will not
pack no matter how cold the weather.
But a question of still greater Import
ance arises when we consider what mum
be the effect on the heulth and comfort
of horses compelled to walk or stand for
hours half knee deep In this freezing mix
ture. When we reflect that a mixture of
Ice and salt produces a temperature at or-
near zero fahrenholt, no mutter what the
temperature of the atmosphere may be.
nn mat It is always wet and adherent
are we not condemning the poor 'leasts to
the crudest of cruel treatment? I know
of one horse In particular who travels
(Irmly and squarely on ordinary roads,
but who becomes so benumbed and pnr.i.
'vssed after an hour In this kind of snow
.hat he "Interferes." I believe that tho
lufferlng, not to say downright damage, to
horses from this cause is Incalculable,
If the traction company must clear Its
tracks of snow by piling on the driveways,
Is It too much lo ask that they give It to
us In its normal, unsulted condition?

THEIR SILVER WEDD1SC.
Friends l.njoyn Felicitation with Colonel
and .Mrs. 11. Al. Boies.
At their elegant home on Clay aVefiue,
and In a manner commensurate with
the particular occasion, Colonel and
Mrs. H. M. Boles last night celebrated
the twenty-fifth anniversary of their
marriage by entertaining and giving a
dinner to forty of their friends.. Inter
est was added to the event from the
fact that on next Week Saturday Col
onel and Mrs. Boles will sail for Egypt,
and during their several months' ab
sence will tcur Europe.
The lovllness of the Interior of the
residence could not be fittingly de
scribed by even one with an exquisite
taste for the beautiful. Of itself, the
Interior of the handsomely furnished
home Is always pleasing, but when
is added the delightful perfume, color
and delicacy of myriads of flowers,
plants, blossoming shrubbery and
palms from the Boles greenhouses
when these are adder) the scene can be
Imagined; It cannot be lilltlngly de
scribed. The ouk-flnlshed library was for the
occasion used as a dining room and
set with a number of small oaken
tables. The tops of the book-cases,
which run In equal height along three
sides of the room, supported n veritable
garden of fragrant and multi-colored
flowers of many kinds.
One of the simple and appropriate
though unique souvenirs of the dinner
was a menu card containing the like
nesses In colors of Colonel and Mrs.
Boies. A silver colored Inscription on
the outside of the first half of the card
Indicated the nature of the event which
was last night so well and so enjoyably
celebrated. Delightful orchestral music
was played during the evening.
IN LOCAL THEATERS.
"The Derby Winner" does not depend
for its success upon lis magnlllcent

It stands distinctively and alone as a
drama, whose theme dwells largely
upon the race track. It combines these
elements of dramatic strength within
a thoroughly attractive manner, with
the clean cut lines of comedy. The
characters embodied In the cast are
strongly brought out. Thoroughly
competent people have been engaged to
Interpret tlipne varied parts, and tho

TRIAL IS ALMOST AT AN END
Kuminisky Murder Cuse Wilt Go to
the Jury Today.
JACOB SKOKl'PA'S TESTIMONY
He Wus an F.yc-Witncss of the Fight and
l.xculpntcs Defendant from All Blame.
He Urines a Serious Charge Against
Constable William Dougher.
If Joseph Ruminlsky Is guilty of the
crime of killing old man Adolph Gaus,
at Archbald, last September, there has
been no evidence to substantiate the
allegation.
Dr. Van Doren, of Archbald, was
sworn as the flrstfwltness yesterday
morning. On the day after the slaugh
ter at Gaus' house he was sent for and
he found the old man In a semi-unconscious
condition; he examined the
paitlent and found a contusion of the
flesh on the head. There were four
Btab wounds In the left side and a com
pound fracture of the fifth rib, which
might produce death. Gaus was in a
very feeble condition, owing to loss of
blood, the wounds on his body and
liquor.
The doctor swore that the wound on
the head,xln his opinion, would not
causo death. Mr. McGlnley reminded
him that Coroner Kelley testified to the
finding of a compound fracture of ths
skull when he conducted the autopsy.
If that was so, the doctor admitted
then that his diagnosis had been an In
correct one.
Adam Weiss had a conversation with
Johnny Gaus the day after the affray
occurred. The son told Weiss that he
had struck his father on the head with
an Iron bar and feared that he had
killed him. Mrs. Weiss came home after
visiting the Gaus household to see how
badly the old man had been Injured.
She told her husband that Ruminlsky
would not be clear of the crime.
Hnmliiltky Shed Tears.
Ruminlsky was present while she was
talking and he cried. The witness was
at the bedside of the old man when
he died. Johnny Guus said In the pres
ence of the witness and his mother that
he had done the assaulting; He de
nied knowing anything about the knife,
but In the samu breath he told his
mother where to find It. Squire Thomas
J. Gilden, of Archbald, testified briefly
and identified the knife and Iron us
the same which Constable Dougher
brought to his office. With this testi
mony the commonwealth rested.
Mr. McGlnley, for the defense, before
opening moved the court to reduce the
degree in the indictment from murder
to manslaughter. Judge Archbald re
fused this motion for the reason that
even If the defendant did not strike the
blow he might still be a party to the
assault. Attorney McGlnley opened his
side of the case to the Jury. He made
a short speech, but told the Jurymen
that he proposed to offer evidence that
will entirely clear the defendant.
Miles J. MeAndrew, of Archbald, was
the first witness for the defense. He
had an Interview with Adolph Kloss
In which the latter said he saw, when
he raised the window, two men running
away from Gaus' house. Kloss swore
on the stand he saw Ruminlsky and
Johnny Gaus standing on the street.
'Squire Gllrlea was recalled and he
swore that Mrs. Gaus was drunk, both
nt the coroner's inquest and at the
hearing.
Kuminisky Pointed Out.
Constable McHale, of the Second
ward, of Archbald, heard that Rum
inlsky had been Implicated in the mur
der, but when he went to the house of
old man Gaus to get some facts, he
there saw the defendant attending the
old man and rubbing him with lini
ment and whisky. Adolph Kloss point
ed Ruminlsky out as the one who had
done the stabbing and thereupon tht
constable placed Ruminlsky under ar
rest. In the afternoon the defendant was
put upon the Btand and Mnrtln Woysh
ner interpreted his testimony. His
story Is us follows: About 4 o'clock
Saturday afternoon Jacob Skorupa
came over from that region of quiet and
blissfulness, known as the Ridge.
Jacob had a gold eagle in his inside
pocket and he sent Ruminlsky after a
quart of whisky. When the llrst quart
was finished, another wus got, and an-

other, and another, and a fourth and
a fifth, making altogether one and one
fourth gallons of liquor. This amount
was divided among the old man, Mrs.
Gaus, Johnny Gaus, Skorupa and the
prisoner, and yet .It only set them
"pretty well on," to use the defendant's
own expression.
All during the revel Johnny and the
old man were fighting and Jawing. At
10 o'clock the defendant went out for
20 cents' worth of beer, at 11.30 he went
after 10 cents' worth and when he
came back the second time the old man
was beaten. That Is all he .knows about
the murder. District Attorney Jones
was unable to shake the defendant's
testimony.
Map of the Premises
Architect F. L. Rrown, of this city,
draughted a map of the Gaus house In
Archbald and explained the interior
dimensions of it and the location of the
doors and windows to the Jury.
Jacob Skorupa was put upon the
stand not long before adjournment, and
he made a very material witness for
the defense. It was he who provided
the money to buy the whisky and he
swore that he saw the affray which re
sulted In the old man's death. Skorupa
was so drunk In the evening that he
had to retire to a bed In the Gaus house;
and after he had been sleeping It off
for about two hours he was aroused by
the noise of the fight between Johnny
and the old man. Skorupa saw the son
strike his father with the Iron on the
head and on the ribs. Ruminlsky was
not around at the time. The witness
also swore that Constable Dougher,
who figures as the prosecutor, had tried
to Intimidate him.
The case will be given to the Jury to
day, but It will be late In the afternoon.
Rumlnlsky's wife sat beside him yes
terday and smiled and giggled through
out life day. She Is possessed of fairly
good looks.
NEW BUSINESS SCHEME.
Ulnghumtun Men Want to Start u Cigar
1 octory Hero.
Two ninghamton cigar men have
paid several visits to this city recently
and endeavored to Interest local busi
ness men In a scheme to establish a
cigar manufacturing company In
Scranton. Nothing definite has been
done, but It Is probable that the enter
prise will be carried out.
It Is argued by the men Interested
thut Scranton Is a very favorable city
for the cigar manufacturing business
on account of Its large number of un
employed women and girls. The board
of trade has not been upproached In the
matter. Who are the men Interested,
or what point their plans have reached
could not be ascertained yesterday.
