SESSION 1SJB0UT OVER
Only One Case Remains to lie Tried
in the District Court.
MRS. FRISK'S LIGHT SENTENCE
Amos Robinson AdmittcJ That Ho llnd
Transgressed und I scaped l ightly.
San ford Was Very nold-Mcadvllle
Injunction rase llefore the t:ourt.
Mrs. Noll Fiinlc, of Montrose, the wo
man who pleaded guilty tu the charge
of sending obscene letters through the
malls, was yesterday called up before
Judge Ituningtun for sentence In the
fiiited Stales district court. In Im
posing sentence Judge Ilulllngton said
that at the solicitation of her counsel
on the ground of her mental condition
he had decided to make the Bontenc? a
nominal one. lie directed her to pay a
tine of and costs.
Amos KoMnsun, who was charged
with Hi lling liquor on Lackawanna ave
nue, In this city, without paying the
lutei ne-l revenue I'ee, pit mled guilty and
was sentenced to pay o lino of S'l und
costs.
Harney Stetiawlth, (ieorgi; Steina
with and Paul Strlgus were tried for a
blinllar offense to that of Mr. Uoblnson.
They were defended by Attorney II. 1!.
UeynoldM. Harney Stelimwlth was the
proprietor of a store on Lloyd street.
In thin city, where liquor was ulo sold,
it appeared that Strlgus was the man
who va'. responsible for the Illegal
liquor selling and he was found guilty
und the others acquitted. Judge Huf
lington then sentenced Stiii;tis to pay
u line of $1 and costs.
Jacob Sokltela was arraigned for ob
taining u money order for $."U from the
IHiryea postotllee, which was uddivssed
to Maria Korataker. Attorney II. II.
Iteynolds was assigned to defend him.
Deni.'d licttiii;; the l etter.
After getting the letter containing
the money older Sokltels went to Pitts
ton and had It cashed. Postmaster John
H. Mullen, of Plttston, ami Postmaster
M. K. Corcoran, of IHiryea, testllled
that Sokltels was the man who ob
tained the money und letter, but never
theless Sokltels went on the stand and
entered a general denial. The retnuln
cter of the day was taken up by the
Meadvllle Injunction case. Only on;'
case remains to be tried in the district
court, that of the government against
George Kox, charged with unlawfully
taking a valuable letter from a post
office. Today sentences will be Im
posed on those convected during the
week.
It has transpired that the real name
of the person who was convicted on
Wednesday as W. J. Sanford, for using
the malls to defraud, Is Walter Sanford
IJemlng. He was born In Vermont of
well-to-do parents and ho has a brother
who Is now a man of much prominence
in the east. Denting resided for many
years In Boston.
When he was convicted on Wednes
day his attorney, on representations
made by the convicted man. made a
statement to the court beseeching
clemency, in which he stated that it
was the first offense of the prisoner, and
that he had hitherto borne an excellent
reputation.
They Knew Different.
There were two men in court who
knew different, and they were District
Attorney Harry Hall and ex-Assocl.ito
Judge George Wels, of St. Mary's, Klk
oounty. A few years ago Deming,
under another name, was arrainged in
tiie Elk county courts for defrauding
people through a fake live stock Insur
ance scheme. It was Mr. Hall who
acted as prosecuting attorney at that
time and Mr. Wels was one of the
Judges who presided at theitrial. Dem
ing was convicted and sent to the pen
itentiary for several years. Mr. Hall
magnanimously declined to say any
thing to Judge Hutllngton concerning
the past cureer of Denilng. and to this
fact may he ascribed the light sentence
of thirteen months that the convicted
man received.
Argument was heard by Judge Ruf
fington on the proceedings for injunc
tion brought by Thomas S. McFarland,
of New York, one of the stockholders
of the Meadvllle Water company,
against the city of Meadvllle. The
latter some time ago decided to erect
Its own water works and to pay for
them concluded to Issue bonds to the
amount of 175,000.
The Injunction to restrain the Issuing
of the bonds is asked for on the ground
that If the city Issues them It will In
crease Its Indebtedness above the con
stitutional tax limit. The plaintiff is
represented by ex-Judge Heydrlck, of
the state supreme court, and Attorney
H. L. Thompson, and the city of Mead
vllle by City Solicitor Arthur L. Bates,
O. W. Hasklna, E. W. McArthur and
Thomas P.oddy.
Wanted Proceedings Dismissed.
City Solicitor Bates asked that the
proceedings be dismissed on the ground
that the plaintiff's actual Interest in the
suit did uot reach the limit of Jurisdic
tion In the circuit court. This motion
was argued by Attorneys Bates and
Hasklns for and by Judge Heydrlck
against.
Judge Ilulllngton expressed grave
doubt 'us to Jurisdiction of the court In
the matter, but pending a consideration
of the question raised decided to hear
the aflld.ivits bearing Upon tho subject,
und the arguments of Counsel. The
case wu on when court adjourned for
the day.

COMPULSORY NONSUIT.
Grunted in rate of Johnson Against tho
I).. I.. & W. K. II. Co.
An Important case was summarily
disposed of In common pleas court yes
terday before Judge Arehbuhl. Mrs.
Christina Johnson was the plaintiff In
a suit to recover jti.uiiu from the Dela
ware, Lackawanna and Western Kail
road company for the deuth of her
husband, who was employed as a miner
In the Central shaft and was roasted In
an explosion of gas. Attorneys C.
Cornea, ya, (leorge K. Peck und George S.
Horn appeared for Mrs. Johnson, und
the company was defended by Attor
neys 10. N. Wlllard und Jessup at Hand.
The allegation of the plaintiff wus
that the company willfully and negli
gently allowed gas to accumulate In
one of the chambers of tho, mine and us
a result an explosion occurred which
wus responsible for the death of the
plaintiff's husband. The attorneys of
the company asked court to grant a
compulsory nonsuit on the ground of
contributory negligence. Judge Arch
bald granted the motion and ordered a
rule to be granted to show cause why
the nonsuit should not be stricken off.
Verdict fur Merrywoatlier
Judge Pur'dy charged the Jury early
yesterday morning lu the Jackson
Merry weather case und the Jury re
tired to agree upon a verdict. Later
in the day the Jury came into court
with a verdict of Jl, 235.40 In favor of the
plaintiff.
The case of Mrs. fennle E. Brink
against the borough of Dunmore ended
at 3 o'clock. The jury will be charged
by Judge Edwards some time today.

posed of the ejectment suit of Michael

Comedy company, which appears at

petite Utile soubrctte, Miss Currlo

bluf.liig footlights. Her work Is ex
ceedingly clever. In addition to their
thive-nlyht engagement, they will give
matineeJ Tuesday and Wednesday for
the low price of 10 cents.
Palmer Cox has managed to make a
clever fairy spectacle out of the
Brownies and Malcolm Douglass has
composed some very pretty music for It,
but Jefferson, Klaw & lOtianger have
done the most of all. They have re
produced Mr. Cox's picture Hrownles
with remarkable lldelity and have sur
rounded them with the handsomest of
scenery and the most startling me
chanical effects. This , wonderful at
traction will be seen at the Frothlng

An Interesting Letter.
Editor of The Tribune.
Dear Sir: I enclose 50 cents for the Fin
ishing and Furnishing fund. This small
sum Is not a one-hundredth part of what I
owe the Young Men's Christian associa
tion, but it Is all I can spare. Several
munths ugo 1 came to Scrunton. I had no
friends und only a little pocket mom y.
While looking for work 1 wus told to con
sult with the Young .Men's Cluistiuti as
sociation seeretury, who u few duys later
scoured mo a position ut $0 per week and
board with a private family, to whom I
pay $3.50. But for this assistance 1 might
have been destitute. Yours, Cush.
Seranton, March 2i, if'J'j.
The foregoing letter Indicates merely
one kind of work the association Is do
ing. The testimony is given added force
by the fact that It comes from one of
the many young strangers who, in a
strange city amid temptations, are
given a start and encouragement In the
right dlreotion.

about " fevt in leaRth. head and alL 1 havs
it in a bottle and auy person wishing to se
it can do so by oalling at my store. I had
tried numerous other remedies recommended
for taking tapeworms, bnt all failed. In my
estimation Dr. Ofcuipbsll's is the greatest
worm remedy in oilstenoe.
