AFTER A NEW TRIAL.
Reasons Why Ono Should He (Jrnnted
Tiled in Hoschlno Case.
Heasons for a new trial In the case of
Joseph Hoschlno, convicted of murder
In the first degree for the crime of
killing Frank Confortl, were filed be
fore Jud'fe (lunster Saturday morning
In court by counsel for the defense, At
torneys Ward, Horn, and Wedenian.
Thirty reasons for a new trial were
filed and they covered every conceiva
ble feature In all the proceedings of
the trial, The court examined the rea
Bons carefully and Judge Gunster then
granted a rule to show why a new trlnl
should not be granted. The rule will
be argued at the next term of argu
ment court, which will lie held during
the week beginning Monday, April 211.
In brief the reasons are that the court
erred In charging the Jury; tho argu
ment of District Attorney Jones Is at
tacked and also his attitude during the
trial. It Is also alleged that on one
or moro occaslona the Jurymen separ
ated, and that one of them, Lewis Fed
let,, strayed away one day whllo out
at meals, entered a place of business
and remained there away from the rest
a considerable length of time. It la
charged that some of the jurors pro
cured newspapers and read partial ac
count of the trial and comments there
on. The llrst reason advanced is that tho
verdict Is against the evidence. It is
charged thut Judge Ounster erred In
not quoting the testimony of the de
fense with the snme care and stress
us that of the commonwealth. The
court Is charged with having erred In
referring to the evidence of un alibi;
In fact; he court. It Is alleged, erred
through. Vt in not giving the defend
ant all tt enellt of w hatever evidence
tended to establish his Innocence.
The counsel for the defendant ob
jects to the language used by the Dis
trict Attorney, particularly when he
said: "1 Know that liosclilno killed
I'onl'orti; by iny investigation in the
case I learn this, but In such form the
court would not admit It In evidence."
In several other reasons there are
quoted expressions used ill tile trial by
the district attorney, which counsel for
the defense allege are sulllclent to war
rant the court in awarding n new trial
to Hoschlno. The hearing will come
up before the three judges, the same as
(lie application Ccir u new trial was
heard in the Hezek.
IX VM M THEATERS.
At the Academy of Music on Wednes
day cvcnini; the attraction will be the
champion of the world, James J. Cor
bel t. w hen in' will be seen in the Amer
ican comedy drama. "Gentleman Jack."
Exact representations of the Madison
Square Koof garden, New York, the
arena of the Olympic club, New Or
leans; the training; quarters at Lock
Arbour, and the campus of Payne col
lege, are special features of the pro
duction. During the roof garden scent!
a number of entertaining specialties are
introduced. Mr. Corbett In the last act
will spar three scienllllc rounds with
Stevo o'Donnell. This seen1.' is an exact
representation of the Olympic club,
New Orleans, and to add to its realism
there ure IWII auxiliaries used. The cast
are such noted players as Hell lieli
ricks. .1. W. MoConnell, Wilson, John
McVeigh, P.ort Tucknuin, J. A. Wren,
Fred Harrison, Andrew llaynes, Miss
Nellie liuckley, Miss Henrietta Osborne
and Miss I!. Howard.
Many of our clever play writers fall
In their comedy scenes. Milton Nobles,
who has for years been very success
ful as a writer and producer of melo
dramas, has a happy faculty of intro
ducing good comedy scenes and char
acters. His success in that direction
has encoura,veil lilm to write a comedy
entirely free of melo-dramatic element.
It Is called "Fur Hevenue Only" and
will in' seen at the Academy of Music
on Thursday evening, with the author
In the leading comedy role. The lead
ing character In Milton Nobles' new
comedy, '"For Itevenue Onlv," is a
newspaper reporter. Mr. Nobles' per
formance of this "speedy Bohemian" In
the "Phenlx" brought him fame and
fortune. Tlie reporter In his new piny
Is said to be a most modern and re
putable style of character.
I! i: li
"A Cracker Jack" will be the attrac
tion at Davis' theater today, tomorrow
and Wednesday afternoon and evening.
Messrs. Stair and Nicolai, proprietors
of "A Cracker Jack," have mounted the
play lavishly and cast it with one of
the strongest companies procurable.
Thee play embodies a rich fund of com
edy, and the best specialty talent to
be had has been secured. The services
of twenty-two people are required In
Its production.

"The Derby Winner" pleased another
large audience at the Academy of Music
Saturday night.
SHE CHANGED HER MIND.
.Mrs,
Iliirrctt-llroimic's Girls Released
from House of the Good Shepherd.
Two sisters, Delia and Mary Harrett,
aged respectively lli and 17 years, were
Saturday granted their release from the
House of the (biod Shepherd, They
owe their liberty to legal action in
court and the efforts of a mother who
was the means of placliiK the girls in
the Institution originally.
Mrs. Harrett-llromuge last September
charged her daughters with assault and
battery and running' away from home,
said they were uncontrollable. She
suctvi'ded In having them placed In the
Florence mission and later in the House
; of the Good Shepherd. A short time
I ago the management refused to com
ply with the mother's request that the
girls lie released. On a writ of habeas
I corpus secured Friday by Attorney C.
W. Dawson the sisters were brought
Into court Saturday looking happy and
well fed, although they complained of
the stinted quantity of the home's food.
The court ruled that ns the girls were
committed at the mother's request they
could be released if Mrs. I'.nrrett
llromage so desired, nnd consequently
ordered their discharge.
l'HII.ll' IIENSI.EVS CASE.

After being sentenced to Imprison
ment for bliramy, Philip llensley, of
Dunmore, now wants a divorce from

llensley, of 2: Dennis alley, Wilkes
Hnrre. llensley's llrst sentence of
fourteen months In tho penitentiary
was changed Saturday to nine months
In the county Jail, and on (hat day he
began his peculiar divorce action
through Attorney T. J. Duggan.
Hensley nlleges that, while he has
been true to his marriage vows his wife
deserted him Nov. 25, 1X92. A feature
which makes the case unusual Is the
bigamous marriage of Hensley to wife
number two, a Hlnghiimton woman.
It Is announced that the Kohlnson
woman, wife number one, will not con
test the divorce. In which case Hensley
will be free to again enter the matri

It Mudo Its l'irst I'uhlio Appcuruneo at
tho Washington's birthday Celebra
tion in Pliiludelpliiu-A Plan to
Sturl the New Armory I und.
Local military doings of last week
consisted only of the regular routine of
drills, Willi the exception of Cuptlllll
Kellow's company, which added a mili
tary hall to the programme. It was a
huppy affair, too. Not only was It a
success socially, but llnunolally as well,
and very deserving Is the object Com
pany It's treasury, because Its funds
are ulwuys properly distributed.
The company room received u com
plete renovating last year now it Is the
pleawa litest in our armory.
Company A boys talk of re-decorating
their company room, and others need
It just as much, Including headquarters,
of course the olliccrs and men don't
feel that 11 would be advisable to ex
pend much money In this way, because
a new armory may lie built before long,
but a little new' paint does much to
brighten things up, und our company
rooms should always be the most Invit
ing spot in tin! building.
Of a I oenl Nature.
The drill of Company D was not post
poned last Friday, although a holiday,
und many of the boys uttended Com
pany H's ball after drill.
The Innocent recruit bus always been
a shining mark for the pranks of old
stagers. One of the awkward squad In
Company A was tricked a week ago
by being told that the regiment was
going to Honesdnle on the 6 p. m. train
Friday, and would leave the armory
some time before li. lie asked his cm
power to excuse him at 5, and hurried
home, donned his uniform und could
have been seen at the proper hour,
standing before the tightly closed doors
of the Adams avenue entrance.
Tomorrow night, at the Frothlng
hame, the Wllkes-Harre Klrmess will
be produced. The old soldiers will not
clear a very handsome amount from
their effort lu Wilkes-Hurre, und they
hope to add to what they already have
by the pjiitronago of this city on Tues
day. We should not forget that a new
armory Is about to be built In Scranton,
and in April we expect to nsk Wllkes-
lSarre to send a good delegation here to
aid us with the benefit that is now be
ing planned. Scranton should (ill the
house tomorrow night if only to criti
else the work of our rival amateurs.

THE OUAKER'S CURSE.
Legend of the "Crnh-I iniy .cd I oiks
' in
New York State.
From the 'KiiiTulo Express.
During the days of Quaker persecu
tions in New England, according to a
legend related here, there was one per
secutor who was particularly llendish
in his cruelty. On one occasion he
seized one of that despised sect and cut
off all bis fingers and toes. The Quaker
lu his agony called upon heaven to curse
tho offspring of his tormentor by de
priving them of these members; nnd tlw
legend says that the curse took effect
almost immediately, , und followed
through succeeding generations down
to the present time.
Wo may believe the legend or not us
wo choose, but there are living to-day
lu the Cutturagus valley a goodly num
ber of people with only hideous, mis
shapen nppenages in t he place of hands
and wretched stumps instead of feet
who connect this story with thulr ances
try. Some of the "crab-lingered folks,"
as they are called locally, have one
short linger about twice the wldtli of an
ordinary person's linger, with perhaps
unother very Hhortstump beside It. Oth
ers have only an appendage bearing
more resemblance tit a crab's claw than
anything else; hence their name.

words tell the whole story of the wond-r-
