MIXF.I) THINGS II'.
Baker, Teamster anJ Laborer tight In n
Night l unch Wagon.
A baker, a teamster anil a laborer
quarrelled, hnd a fight and turned
thlngn tiiiHlde down In a night lunrh
wagon Saturday night and In police
court yesterduy morning the baker
paid a fine of IU.
Alexnnder Mauthey, nf-r-1 28 years, a
baker, living on "Gypsy Htreet;" James
Ruddy, aged 21 years, a driver, and
Peter Baldwin ,aged 27 yearH. n labor
er, the two latter living In I'.elleviie,
got Into some kind of a musH In the
lunch wagon at Lackawanna and Wy
oming avenues at So'clook In the morn
ing. Tho npaap they had to fight In I
only 4 by 7 feet and It quite naturally
followed that the combatants, a lump
or two, an oil move and sundry provl
nlbna became mixed up In hopelesH con
fusion. Patrolmen Palmer and lletzeroth
railed off the light and led the fighters
to the station house. Mauthey, the
baker, became somewhat faulty and
twisted in giving his account of the
fray and had to. pay J6. Tho others
Were discharged.
VERY DARING THIEVES.
They Fntered Reed's Grocery Storo on
Washington Avenue Yesterduy.
, During yesterday afternoon thieves
Entered Heed's grocery store at 316
Washington avenue and succeeded In
carrying away 200 cigars, 100 packs of
cigarettes, a few cans of fancy articles
and HO cents from the money drawer,
which was forced open.
The culprits are believed to be boys
from the fact that entrance was made
through a. narrow opening In the rear
door, from which a pane of glass had
been removed. ,

LAST SAD FUNERAL RITES
Said Over the Remains of Ex-Jmlijc
John Handlev.
MtlEl' SERVICES AT ST. LUKE'S
i
Crowd Was Filled with a Morbid and l'n
scomly Curiosity-Will Is Head to
Pull Hearers, Who Are Pledged
to Sccm-cy.
Never before In Scranton's history
lias a funeral attracted such un elbow
ing, shoving and unruly crowd as tliut
which pushed and tore at one another
yesterday in mid outside St. Luke's
church on Wyoming avenue, where th
services were held over the body of
ex-Judge John Hundley. It was mor
bid curiosity Mini not u desire to do
reverence to unu prominent und well
known.
The service wus of the very simplest
nut lire. It consisted only of the im
pressive Kplscopul ritual .There were
no unusual details, nor bud unything
been announced which offered even the
siluhtest excuse for the unseemly and
luullKiillled actions of the immense
throng.
Km tunutely it was Impossible for
more than halt' of them to get Inside
the church. Many of those who illd net
in, especially those who stood or sat In
the rear, made an exhibition which is
sometimes seen at u wi'ddlng but does
not often occur ut a funeral. They
whispered, gossiped, uiggli'd and
did pretty near everything but hold in
due reverence the solemn occasion.
Kith und Poor Present.
Aside from the unseemly curiosity
feature, the funeral of Judge Hundley
in u measure attested his prominence,
the esteem In which his memory was
cherished und his worth while living.
Tlie.se who composed the large gather
ing represented persons In till walks
of life. Of men and women best known
In the city's social, business und pro
fessional world there were many, but
the majority were evidently people of
the common classes. Some of these
were poor. In fact, many of them were,
which possibly gave rise to the suppo
sition that they were persons whom
Judge Hundley had befriended. Cer
tainly their mourning was honest, and
they contributed their part toward the
responses In the service.
When 4 o'clock had urrived the only
available space In the hirgs church
wit" the pews reserved for the Lacka
wanna liar association and the few
friends who were expected to accom
pany the remains from the apartments
on Lackawanna avenue. As was
proved later this reserved space was in
sulliclent, and when the services be
gan the auditorium contained probably
the largest throng in its history. The
side aisles, the rear of the church and
the entrance were packed full. Out
side the closed doors a crowd of several
hundred waited impatiently.
At the KesiJcnce.
All of yesterday the body rested in
tile casket In the rear of the Merchants
and Mechanics' bank In the room
which Judge Hundley had used as an
office. The casket was cloth-covered
and plain and had eight handles, one
on each end and the others along the
side. The upper half of the cover was
kept removed und disclosed to view the
life-like countenance. The appearance
was of profound slumber rather than
death. In the room were six Moral re
memberances a wreatli of roses and
violets from Miss Jennie Howell, roses
and palm leaf from Mr. and Mrs. F. It.
White, roses from Mr. and Mrs. P. II.
Coyne, cross of lillles, roses and hya
cinths from the servants, and two
other set pieces. A plate on the casket
bore the simple Inscription:
JOHN' HAXDLEY.
Horn January 7, laJ5.
Died February 1.", 1S9".
At S.Vt o'clock the Lackawanna Par
association arrived at the bunk build
in;; In a body and alter viewing; the re
mains accompanied the funeral proces
sion to the church. Th" active pall
bearers were men employed by Under
taker Price, of t he West Side, who had

tnehes of the household, an follows:
Mrs. MrN'ally. Annie Hnfrey, F.I Ian
Ward. V. Joyce, Maggie Connolly and
Frank Woelkers.
At the church the casket was de.
posited before the chancel rail, but at
the termination of the services It was
taken to the front entrance, where the
body was viewed by the gathering as
It passed Into the street.
The services were conducted by Uev.
Itogers Israel, the pnntor, Hnd began
with the reading of The Sentences and
the singing of the flurlal Chant. The
hymn, "Hark, Hark, My Soul," sung
by .Mrs. (ieorge IuH. Dlmmlek, Mrs.
Itogers Israel, David Stevens and
Thomas Aubrey, was followed by the
reading of I Corinthians, xv, 20. After
the reading and saying of the creed,
collects and prayers, the hymn, "Now
the Laborer's Tack Is o'er," was Bung,
which concluded the services.
The remains were taken to the
Lackawanna n venue resilience, where
they reposed during last night. At

Contents of tho Will.
The contents of Judge Handley's will
were announced after the funeral by
Mr. Palmer, of Wllkes-Barre, one of
the executors. The Information was
given only to the pull-beareri and they
were pledged to secrecy until today,
when the will Is to be probated at 8
o'clock a. m.
The pall-bearers had gathered In the
Darlora bv reouest and Mr. Palmer In
troduced his remark to them by Q
explanation. He said that the three
executors were to leave the city with
the body within two hours after pro
bating the will, und In consequence they
had only that opportunity to make
known publicly its contents. He then
numed in a general way the bequests
of Judge Hundley, but the testament
was not produced,
Tim Lackawanna liar association met
Saturday in the court house to take
action upon Judge Hundley's death. A
number of attorneys made remarks eu
logistic to the deceased's memory, and

Tributes to Ills .Memory.
F.ach of thse paid a titling tribute
to tho estllllal.il? qualities of the dead
ex-Judge, und an excerpt from the re
marks of ex-Lieutenant Governor
Wutres is un illustration of the senti
ments expressed. He said:
"For more than a quarter of a cen
tury I have known Judge Hundley ami
1 found in him many noble traits of
character which drew forth toy admira
tion of esteem. To many In his retired
life he seemed enigmatical encased as
It were within himself. Neverthliss,
we knew of lilm that, although he sel

liance upon Almighty God, and while
not subscribing to any particular creed
he squared his life as lie saw the light
by tho Gpldeu Itule. He never made
gifts to be seen of men, but none sur
passed him iu Indiscriminate and boun

"It may be truthfully said of him that

Daniel Flannlgan, of Hull's Head,
had a hearing Saturday morning before
Alderman Huberts, of the North ICml,
and was committed to the county Jail
In default of J.'.i'U bail.
Flannlgan was arrested at the In
stance of his wife on the charge of
assault and battery, and she also lays
the blame of the death of their infant
son on her husband. Her story is that
she was standing on the back porch,
holding the child in her arms and her
husband pushed her off, so that she
fell on the child and crushed Its frail
body so badly that the young one died
on Feb. 2. Flannlgan avers that his

helplessness fell off the porch without
being pushed.
Di Sureth, of the North FCnd, was
called In and he treated the child for
bronchial troubles, nnd In making out
the death certlllcnto Dr. Sureth speci
fied the cause of death as bronchitis.
Hut while Flannlgan Is in Jail on the
charge of assault and battery the
charge his wife prefers tigalnst him
will be Investigated.

In securing a return date for "A Juy

were turned away disappointed. It Is

Thoughts for Members.
There are many members of the asso
ciation who perhaps do not know their
dues represent only 40 cents on the dol
lar for value received. That Is, for
each 10 cents In dues GO cent has to be
subscribed by some generous person to
ke'p up the ordinary running ex
penses of the association. None of this
money In the past seven years has been
devoted to Finishing and Furnishing,
but which Is now plainly needed.
Is there any member who feels that
the Young Men's Christian association
is giving him more than $7 worth per
year? If so, put your hand in your
pocket und pull out a quarter or
a dollar for the fund. Of course
$7 Is all that Is required annually of
each member, but If there are any who
feel thut they can pay more, a grand
opportunity Is offered them now.

FACTS
1st: We handle the highest grades of
staple groceries produced. In Teas,
Coffees, Ilutter, Cheese, Rice, Mo
lasses, Smoked Meats, Canned
Goods, Dried Fruits, Flour, etc.,
etc., we have always in stock as
good as can be bought. In Import
ed goods, sucli as Olives, Olive Oil,
Sardines, French Peas and lleans,
etc., etc., vhoi we carry are the
best brands brought to this coun
try. Some peoplo who have never
bought uny goods from us have an
Impression from the fact that we
sell so. cheap thut the goods can
not be first class. Nothing could
be farther out of the way. We de
pend almost wholly on the quality
of our goods to hold our trade, us
we do no drumming und solicit no
credit customers. We think we
ure not stretching the truth when
wo say. that we handle the largest
amount of groceries of any house
In this part of the state not ex
clusively wholesale, which in itself
guarantees fresh goods always. So
much for quality.
2d: Notwithstanding the fact that
the goods we handle are strictly
first class in every resjiect, our
method of doing business enables
us to sell ut figures much below
the usual rate:!. As we said be
fore, we do no drummlns. That is,
we have no ugents soliciting or
ders, which is a very expensive way
of selling goods, for which the cus
tomer must pay. We sell, with
few exception!', for cash, losing
no bad debts whatever. We do a
wholesale and u retail business.
We do a lurge retail fresh meat
trade without having to charge u
big shop rent up to that depart
ment. ;J; We huve ten hoi-res used exclu
sively in delivering goods with live
wagons on the road all the time,
getting out orders promptly and In
good condition.
Finally: We have the largest
line of first class goods in North
eastern Pennsylvania. Our prices
are the lowest we have heard of
anywhere, and our delivery system
Is now perfect. I " nt.il .March 1st we
will give lu per cent, off on all goods
bought from us except Flour,
Sugar und Feed. We want your
trade und are making a big bid
- for it.

When the advertising atmosphere is so
heavily charged with exaggeration, it
is well to remember who the honest
advertisers are. Windy assertions abuut
GKEAT reductions---advertising goods
at impossible prices, find no lodging
place in tbe winds of intelligent people.
Dull trade throughout the legitimate
business season may make necessary,
wild statements from some clothiers ti)
attract trade, but the schemers will
have to scheme harder and find new
disguises for their lame excuses before
tbey can stop tbe 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'
cd another and more taking attraction
