from the start elicited tho deepest Inter
est. In every scene was betrayed a dra
matic action unrivalled In strength and
beauty. The Nancy of Miss Otis was be
yond all question a magnificent presenta
tion, calling for the highest artistic ubll
ity. She sustained the character through
out with marked skill. Mr. Barron's
Slke was a perfect study, winning great
applause. He was the "tough of the
toughs" throughout.
Mr. Carleton's Fagln was a splendid
piece of acting. The entire company filled
their parts admirably. The scenes were
picturesque and natural, bringing to view
all that is demanded In a play of this kind.
The audience was well pleased and the

all previous efforts. One commendable
feature will be the new pieces which

ing the grand Italian mass by Rossini,
Bellini and Donizetti. The Kyrle and
Agnus Dei kvlll, however, be taken from
Mozart's Twelfth mass. Bauer's or
chestra will provide the Instrumental
accompaniment. At the Elm Park
church the evening service on Buster
Sunday will be entirely devoted to an
elaborate service of song, whloh will be
performed by a double quartette com
posed of four Indies and four gentle
men. The service of song will be de
scriptive of the story of the resurrec
tion in Scripture. The performers have
fur some time been rehearsing the
music and an evening of excellent
sacred music is promised.
Anthems at First Church.
At the First Presbyterian church a
ohorus choir of thirty voices has been
trained by Tallle Morgan and will pre
sent a series of anthems by A. J. Hol
dun, Sir Joseph liarnby, Shepherd and
others. The soloists upon the occasion
will be Miss Annette Reynolds, Miss
Lydla Sailor and D. C. Richards. Spe-
clul orchestral music Is also being ar

side at the organ.
At. St. Luke's church J. Willis Con
ant has prepared an elaborate pro
gram comprising selections which will
be heard for the first time In the city.
The solos will be rendered by regular
members of this well trained choir, and
it Is anticipated that the music at the
10.30 morning service will surpass all
previous efforts in tho seleotlim of the
pieces and their rendition. With the
exception of the prayers and psalms,
the service will be fully choral.
Special music will be rendered at the
Second Presbyterian church, but final
arrangements have not been completed.
At the Providence Presbyterian church
a ohorus of twenty voices will render
an anthem from the works of each of
the following composers; Sir Arthur
Sullivan. A. J. Holden, Dudley liucK,
Caleb Simper, Sir George Elvey, J. K.
West, Henry Gadoby (Oxon) and
Gounod.
Charles F. Whlttemore has organized
a powerful chorus choir at the Penn
Avenue Baptist church and, although
recently appointed chorister, he has
prepared a programme of leading Eas
ter anthems. The quartette will also
render several pieces: of appropriate
music. All the choruses will be accom
panied by orchestral music.
On tlio West Side.
Professor Haydn Evans has arranged
a varied programme to be rendered at
St. Patrick's church, West Side. The
music will be selected from the masses
of Gounod, Schubert and other great
masters and the soloists have for many
weeks been preparing their parts. Or
chestral music will also be rendered in
addition to the organ accompaniment.
At the Tabernacle Congregational
church, Hyde Park, a large choir of
children will present Hazard's Carol
service, "Easter Voices," which is re
plete with the most appropriate music
Professor W. W. Jones has arranged
an elaborate programme of special
music to be rendered at the Simpson
Memorial church, and for some time
Chorister E. E. Evans, of the Plymouth
Congregational church, has been drill
ing a chorus choir, who have arranged
an admirable programme throughout
the day. The communion service at St.
David's church will be fully choral, and
Director Morris has been working as
siduously to prepare new music su
perlor to any service previously ren
dered. The choirs of the Jackson Street
Baptist church, First Welsh Baptist
church and First Baptist ohurch, Scran
ton street, have also rehearsed special
ly arranged programme of music.

of the Providence Congregational
church, and a selection of anthems will
be presented at the Providence Meth
odist Episcopal church under the di
rection of William Llnney, who has ar

ments gave the foregoing and reliable
Information to a Tribune reporter.yes
terday. He indicated that the Dem
ocratic faction In common council la
Irreparably ruptured, and no member
of that belief, excepting Mr. Robinson,
will receive unusual favors by the new
president.

FIXE Bl'SlSESS BULD1XC.
F.rcctcd by Matthews Brothers and Now
Occupied by Them as a Wholesale and
Kotnll Drug llousc-Onc of the Most
Attractive Store liooras in the City.
The firm of Matthews Bros., whof -sale
and retail druggists, Is recelvl g
the congratulations of business ail
personal friends annnt the handsome
new four-story building at 320 Lacka
wanna avenue. An examination of the
new building with Its modern and cost
ly appointments and In Its entirety cer
tainly furnishes reason for compliment.
In the disastrous lire of September of
Inst year which did damage to the
amount of over $200,000, tho firm's old
building was almost completely de
stroyed by the flames. Since then the
firm has occupied temporary quarters
on Franklin avenue during the com
pletion of the present store.
The structure Is of brick with a Btreet
front of granite on the first floor and
Indiana limestone on the remaining
stories. The basement is used for the
Btorage of paints and oils; the ground
floor Is occupied by one of the roomiest
and most elaborate retail drug rooms In
the state; the second floor Is used for
the storage of retail stock, and the two
upper floors are used for the shipping
und storage of wholesale goods.
What will most uttract the casual
visitor Is the elegance and harmony of
the retail store, the shelves, cases and
furnishings of which are of mahogany.
This rare and rich wood Is used ex
clusive of any other similar material
and tho great cost would have daunted
merchants less progressive than W. R
J. and C. W Matthews, who comprise
the firm. The soda fountain is really
three exquisite light tinted onxy foun
tains built Into one and beautified by a
framework of carved mahogany and
plate glass. A stamped metal celling
of delicate colors relieves the Interior of
any over-richness which might result
from tho mahogany furnishings. The
whole Is lighted by either gas or elec
tricity whose flume Is hidden by rows
of Moorish globes suspended from the
celling.
The cashier's desk is located In the
middle of the left side of the store; the
general office is in the rear, and the
private ofllee of the Messrs. Matthews
Is situated off from a landing In the
stairs at the rear.
An electric elevator in the rear of the
building Is accessible from any floor,
and the other features of the building
Indicate the whole to be as complete
and modern as is possible with money,
architect and builder.
Altogether, Matthews Bros.' new
business home is no less a compliment
to Scranton than to their own energy.
It fittingly illustrates the confidence of
the firm In the city's mercantile future.
BARNIE SUES VON DER HORST.
Ho Claims Half Interest in the Baltimore
Club.
Billy Barnle, manager of the Scran
ton Base Ball club, Tuesday, brought
suit against Harry Von der Horst, at
Baltimore, claiming a one-half interest
In the property and franchise of the
Baltimore Base Ball club. Barnle
claims that he sold Von der Horst a
one-half Interest in the club when It
held the American association fran
chise and subsequently, when it joined
the league, the other half.
According to Barnle's bill the club
had been losing money right along nnd
Barnle got no money at all, the under
standing being that when It made a
profit, Barnle was to get his share as
well as $2,000 he had put into the club
during the last season he was with it as
manager. The value of the franchise
at the time the club was Incorporated
was $G,000.

DARING LEAP FOR LIBERTY
E. C. Uriel's Successful Escape from
the Countv .Jail.
AWFUL DROP IXT0 DAKKNESS
Was 1,'noonsclous for an llonr but Suc
ceeded - in Reaching Carbondale.
Coptnrud by ex-Shoriff Fahoy-Is
Now In a Critical Condition.
Elmer E. Ulricl, of Chicago, known
as Cooper -and by a half-dozen other
aliases and eaM to be one of the most
cunning sharps ever arrested in Lack
awanna county, made a daring: escape
from the county Jail early yesterday
morning.
He lay unconscious an hour from the
effects of his leap from the western
wall of the Jail yard, but recovered
sufllclently to board a Delaware and
Hudson train for Carbondale, where he
was captured by ex'-Sherlff Fahey Just
before noon. The effects of his fall!
however, were so serious that he had
to be carried to and from the train on
the return trip to Scranton and he is
now in a critical condition and under
the care of Dr. Van Cleef, the Jail phy
sician. Cooper made his escape through his
cell window which Is horizontal and Is
only 4 inches In width between the
short. Jagged Iron spikes which project
from above and below the opening.
His cell mate. Imprisoned for a petty
offense, claims to have been asleep dur
ing the escape, and Cooper substanti
ates the statement. He says he first
twlrted a blanket Into a kind of rope,
fastened It to his Iron cot and dropped
from the other end Into the Jail yard
nearly twenty feet below.
Performed a Daring Feat.
Then ensued the most dare-devil part
of the break for liberty. Cooper placed
one end of a 16-foot plank on top of an
old chicken coop which stands against
the western wall of the Jail yard. A
distance of ait least six feet must have
divided the end of the plank from the
top of the wall, but the prisoner from
the narrow foothold at the end of the
plank Jumped and grasped the upper
stone coping and swung himself to the
top. No light Is shed on that part of
the Jail by the electric lights of Wash
ington avenue, so Cooper must have
dropped blindly thirty feet to the
ground below. The surface is covered
with sharp rocks. He was stunned by
the fall and lay for an hour, too weak
to rise.
When he recovered he went to the
Delaware and Hudson depot in Green
Ridge and boarded the 2.30 train for
Carbondale.
Before ex-Sheriff Fahey started for
Carbondale on a business trip yester
day he learned of the escape, and also
that Michael Maddon, of Fall Brook
street, Carbondale, who was recently
a cell mate of Cooper, had been dis
charged but had paid the latter a visit
only a few days ago.
Mr. Fahey, accompanied by Consta
ble Moran, of Carbondale, visited Mad
don's house and found Cooper sitting
on the edge of a bed and leaning half
asleep against the bed post. In his hip
pocket was found a triple-plated silver
table knife, ground to a point. The
blade near the handle had been filed
into a saw and the other end was
sharpened to the fineness of a razor
blade.
Hack to the Jail Again,
Cooper was brought to Scranton on
the 1.24 Delaware and Hudson train.
He had to be carried to the Jail van.
One ankle Is sprained, he has several
severe bruises and complains of pains
In his spine and stomach.
