-MRS. RICHARDS' LECTURE.
She Considered tho Writers of the George
11 Period.
Mrs. M. T. Richards delivered the
third of her lectures on Knglish litera
ture in the lecture rooms of the Albright
library last night. She conlined her re
murks to what she termed the age of
George II, and reviewed the work of the
writers of that period, dealing especial
ly with the prose works of Dr. Johnson,
the poems of Thompson and Gray and
the forgeries of James McPherson and
Thomas Chatterton, which for years
caused such fierce controversies in the
literary circles of that period.
Mrs. Richards assumes an easy, con
versational tone In addressing her audi
ence, and her thorough mastery of her
subject and the purity and elegance of
her language makes her talks of more
than ordinary Interest and value.
The writers who lived between 1727
and 1760 had a hard struggle for a bare
existence, Mrs. Rlcharda said. They
were living in the dark night of litera
ture between the age of Queen Anne,
when men of letters received public
bounties to assist them In the shape of
lucrative offices, and the day of general
Intelligence which created a demand
for the work of gifted writers. At this
time the Btate of the men who had to
depend on their writing for support
was most deplorable.
Of the writers of that day. Samuel
Johnson was the most remarkable. For
years the pen scarcely left Ills hand and
yet he was unable to properly provide
for the wants of the passing hour. Yet
he struggled on doing all kinds of liter
ary work and finally won for himself a
place of eminence and power. In 1702
he emerged Into the full light of promi
nence. The king conferred upon him a
pension of 300 a year and placed him
in easy circumstances. After that he
wrote leFS and talked more. He was
now the uncrowned king of English lit
erature and had the entre to all grades
of London society. To his biographer,
Mrs. Richards gave unstinted praise.
Though Boswell was of weak Intellect
he loft as his monument a biography
that has never been equalled.
The other writers of the period were
briefly considered. Thompson, Mrs.
Rlchardssays.deservesto rank with the
greatest of poets. Grey's poem, she
said, were magnificent examples of fin
ished poetry. He devoted much of his
life to solitary study and at his death
was perhaps the most extensively
learned man In Kurope.
The clever forgeries of ancient
poems by James McPherson, a Scotch
man, and Thomas Chatterton, the gift
ed son of a Bristol sexton, who com
mitted suicide In London when only IS
years of age, were dwelt upon to some
extent.
The lecture that Mrs. Richards was
to have delivered on Hebrew history
next Saturday night has been post
poned until the following Tuesday. The
lectures of next Tuesday and Thurs
day will be delivered at the residence
of Mrs. Thomas Dlcfrson, of Washing
ton avenue, Instead of at the Albright
library.
DISPUTE OVER WARRANTS.
The Matter W 111 ;omo Before tho Court
for Settlement.
Alderman John Fltzsltnmons, of the
Eighth ward, waived a hearing before
Alderman Hore, of the Eighteenth
ward, yesterday, and entered ball for
his appearance at court.
Last Saturday Ignatz Stroll had two
warrants Issued before Alderman Fltz
slmmons for his brother, Joseph Stroll,
charging him with assault and battery
and the theft of a gold watch. At the
hearing Ignatz decided to settle the
ease and the costs' were paid.
Ignatz, It appears, contends that only
one warrant was Issued, but the alder
man says there were two and charged
for that number. Then Stroll became
angry and had a warrant Issued charg
ing the alderman with obtaining Il
legal .fees.
HE ABUSED HIS WIFE.
That Is tho Charge on Which Allehaol
lilowltt Wbs Arrested. '
Michael Blewltt, a well known man
about town, was arrested last night for
abusing his wife. They live on the top
floor of a building on Center street, near
Wyoming avenue, and the attention of
police officers was attracted to the
apartments by cries of help.
Patrolmen Lewis and Sloat responded
and found the woman leaning against
the outer drtorway, with blood stream
ing from her face, which was severely
cut and bruised. . Blewltt said he had
only pushed her roughly and that the
cuts on her face were caused by falling.
A relative who was present contra
dicted the story and said Blewltt, who
was slightly Intoxicated, had violently
hit the woman. He will be given a
hearing in police court this morning.
LIVELY MTJN COUNCIL
Because the Traction Company Wants
Two Franklin Avenue Tracks. :
MR. ROBINSON WAS ANGRY
Ho Kef used Point ninnk to Present tho
Hallways Commlttco's favorable lie-port-Several
Supported Mini but
Measure Paused Two Headings.
The Traction company's ordinance
providing for the right to lay t.vo
tracks on Franklin avenue between
Spruce Btreet and Lackawanna ave
nue passed two readings in common
council 'last night. It was favorably
considered, notwithstanding the pro
test of Dr. I. F. Everhart, who was
present a:i a representative of the prop
erly owners, and caused a lively tilt be
tween Mr. Sweoney and Mr. Robinson
and Mr. Zeldler.
After the Hat of committees had been
exhausted Mr. Sweeney announced that
the railways committee was ready to
make a report, uccompanying the re
mark by laying an ordinance on Mr.
Robinson's, chairman of the railway
committee, desk.
"1 refuse to present this report," said
Mr. Robinson. "It is to grant this
Traction company the right to double
track Franklin avenue and has been
signed by three members of the com
mittee since this meeting was called to
order."
Mr. Zeldler, the new Democratic
member from the Sixteenth, argued
ugalnst the Introduction of the report,
lwas his maiden debate. He said that
the property owners are ulmost a unit
in opposition to laying two tracks in
the avenue and had urged the commit
tee in vain to meet them on Franklin
avenue and examine the locality In
question. To. Mr. Sweeney's motion,
Mr. Zeldler offered an amendment that
action be postponed until the next meet
ing. Amendment Not l'uvorcd.
The amendment was lost, the follow
ing voting against It: Members Gol
den, Morris, drier, Thomas, Regan, Mc
Lean. Wenzel, Sweeney, Howe, Davis
and Norton.
The original motion prevailed, but
Mr. Robinson remained In Iris chair.
After a moment's silence, during which
Mr. Sweeney wore an anxious look, the
clerk betran reading the February re
port of the police department. Mr. Rob
inson still failed to report, and mat
ters, a few moments later, were com
plicated by Mr. Zeldler's motion, sec
onded by Mr. Robinson, that the meet
ing adjourn. The motion was lost.
When the session went into the sev
enth order, ordinances on first and sec
ond readings, Members Regan and
Sweeney were quickly on their feet and
simultaneously called for the ordinance
in question. It was at this point that
Dr. Everhart was accorded the privi
lege of the lloor, upon the suggestion of
Mr. Zeldler.
Dr. Everhart presented the objection
of the property owners and requested
that action on the ordinance be deferred
until after they had met the railways
committee.
Mr. Robinson's motion to postpone
action was lost and the ordinance
passed two readings by the following
vote:
Ayes Golden, Morris, Grier, Thomas,
Regan, McLean, Wenzel, Sweeney,
Howe, Davies, Hickey, Norton, Nealls.
Nays Robathan, Molr, Robinson,
Zeldler, Noone, Williams.
The measure has passed the select
branch and will be presented the mayor
for signature after It shall have passed
another reading In the common body.
They Want to Change.
A petition was offered by Mr. Noone,
from Fifth ward citizens asking that a
small portion tit the ward be added to
the Eighteenth ward. An accompany
ing resolution directs the city solicitor
to ask the court to appoint a commis
sioner to investigate the petition. The
petition offers to present unsatisfactory
school facilities as the reason for the
proposed change. Mr. Noone's opposi
tion to Mr. Robathan's motion to refer
to committee was unavailing.
Bids for building a Thirteenth lateral
sewer In the Fourteenth ward was re
ferred to committee as follows: B. O.
Koons, Kingston, $6,450 for sewer com
plete, $22 for extra manholes and $48
for extra catch basins; Dunn Bros., $2.13
per lineal foot, $38 for extra manholes
and $45 for extra catch basins.
The park committee reported favor
ably a resolution directing the park
commissioners to ascertain whether
land can be secured above Nay Aug
falls to be flooded and made Into an
artificial lake, the same to be added to
the park nnd be under the control of the
commissioners. The resolution was
adopted.
The Scranton and North End railway
ordinance passed third and final read
ing. Select council's action was confirmed
In Its award of the following contracts:
Fahey Bros,, building the new Main
avenue sewer; Dunn Bros., paving
Franklin avenue between Spruce and
Mulberry streets.
An adjournment was made to next
Thursday night. 1
