"Allatoonn," the military drama,
which had boon presented nightly lust
week In the Frothliwhiim. for the bene
fit uf the Thirteenth reslment uimory

a most creditable manner.
The little pit,', which appeared In the
play as iv vleltm of a foraglnu expedi

In the will of the late Judge Handley

each of said persons shall graduate,
and when such scholars shall have fin
ished and graduated his or her educa
tion, to pay to both boy or girl the sum
of five hundred dollars out of the in
come of my estate," and In accordance
with this provision a petition was filed
on Saturday in court by Atorneys Ward

diseased sinca she was 3 years of age.
The petition sets forth that Judge
Handley supported, clothed and edu

states that the deceased expressed a
promise to send her, to a musical school

fall of the current year, for a term of
two years until she would have grad

executors of the estate, compelling
them to render to her the benefit of the
provision made In his will by Judge
Handley for'lhe pulplls educated at his
expense.

NEW COALJEPOSIT FOUND
Prospecting I'arty Discovers a Vein
la No. 5 Mountain,
B0KB H0LB WILL BE DRIVEN
Voln Underlies the Mountains tout of No.
5 Meadows-Land Owned by William
Conuell Anotlior Search, unj Moro
Thorough, Will Ho Mnde.
From trustworthy sources the Infor
mation corm'H that n rich vein of coal
underlies the mountains east of tho
"No. C Metidows" and that the Hteis
leading toward a development of this
deposit will Soon begin.
The land as fur iis the Ttoarlng Ilrook
township line Is owned by William Con
nell. For yeurs It has been a mutter
of conjecture whether or not these
mountains possessed In their Interior
tho cHisky mlnei'ul, and time and again
there have been evidences that would
tend to tho conclusion that they do.
Men versed In tho mining of coal have
at various times traveled over tlieso
mountains ntul found Hpots of Hue black
dirt that resembled the outcropping of
Homo vein of coal.
For the first time with a serious In
tention, a prospecting party, led by
Engineer William Monsey, t raveled
along the mountain a few days ugo
and returned convinced that the place
coutalns a rich deposit of conl. An
other mid iimre thorough search will
l-e made in a IVw days. Hut from all
facta that have been acquired up to
date, It is assumed that a uore hole will
be driven during tho summer to deter
mine the true ttutus.
South Side Supply I'liiHm;.
The fact has for tho past few years
beenapparentthatsome of the coal beds
of the Koikth Side have approached very
close to tho condition of being "worked
out." For upward of thinly years coal
lias been mined from the Tunnel mines
and the Meadow Brook shaft of Will
iam Connell & Co., nnd the most vul
uablo deposits have been removed.
Less than a year ago all tjie ma
chinery and appliances for removing
themineral from the Stafford shaft were
taken out. The output of the Mendow
liroolc etuift and tho Tunnel mines has
giown somewhat meager, and now all
that remains and stands ready to meet
the future needs Is the National shaft
Outside of the property of Mr. Con
nell there Is absolutely very little to
fall back upon, and the serious question
has arisen, as to where tho men now
employed in tho mines will find employ
ment, when the deposit gives out. The
mines, during the periods of depression,
were the only industries that could be
relied uixn.
SOUTH SIDE NEWS.
Tramps Aro with Vs Again and They Arc
Very Hold Ones at That Funeral of
Patrick E. Roach-Other South Side
News In Briefer Form.
Lieutenant Zang's attention Is re
spectfully addressed to the fact that
within the past few days a swarm of
gentlemen of leisure have taken up
quarters In the fields below the South
steel mill, at a safe distance from the
city line, by which they are thus en
abled to steer away from the Jurisdic
tion of the Scranton police. But al
though these tramps have squatted out
side the Hm!t3, their operations spread
through the Twentieth ward and al
ready much complaint has been heard
from the people regarding the boldness
of the requests for food. At one back
door at 6 o'clock yesterday morning the
woman ofl the house was greeted by a
peremptory demand for victuals, and
when the gent did not get pie, miry!
your eye, he threatened to become ob
noxious. Fortunately this woman had
not far to go to untie the bulldog. Let
the tramps be forced to earn their
bread by sweating over tho stone pile
with bracelets on their ankles.
Funeral Announcement.

Roach will at 9.30 this morning be re

Building and Loan association will
meet at Moeller's hotel for tho transac
tion of Important business. It is the
regular pay night and tho officers will
be busy accommodating all subscribers
who desire to make loans. This Is re
garded as an evidence that the building
boom will be unusually active this
Bprlng. It Is seldom that an associa
tion Is compelled to refuse the requests
of borrowers.
A .Malicious Kiimor.
In connection with the accounts of
the fatal accident to John .Noonnn, It
has been falsely circulated that the un
fortunate man was a victim of a quar
rel that took place nt Junius F. Best's
hotel, on Cednr avenue. Neighbors of
Mr. Best and mem who know the repu
tation of his hotel for peace and qifiot,
all agree that the first light has yet to
occur there. Noonan happened casu
ally into Mr.' BeKt's place the day be
fore his dmth, but ho received no liquor
and remained only the length of time
It required to enter and depart. More
over, his fall occurred almost three
quarters of a mile uway from the Uoar

DECISION INRAUB WILL CASE
Register Hopkins Refuses to Admit
Nuncupative Will
MRS. SNOVER'S CLAIM FAILS
Complicated Evidence Tendered by tho
Various Portlcs-CIuims of Hclotlves
Discussed-Cost of the Proceedings
to lio I'u id Out of tho Estate.
A decision was rendered Saturday by
Register of Wills Williams S. Hopkins
in tho proceedings In the estate of the
lutu John W. Kaub, of the West Side,
whoso personal property was claimed
by 'Mrs, Henrietta J. Snover, In conse
quence of a nuncupative will, which she
claims was mado In her favur by the
decedent upon his deathbed.
Kaub was a bachelor and hud ac
quired property valued at from $10,000
to $15,000. Ho was an Illegitimate son
and under the law he could not make
a will to dispose, of his property. The
law of Pennsylvania provides that the
estate of one of Illegitimate birth re
verts to tho state, unless there should
be either a brother or Bister alive also
illegitimate; In such case the latter Is
the legal heir.
This was the first case of its kind oc
curring In Lackawanna county. After
Ruub's death an application was made
by Mrs. Helen Clark, of Itenton, for let
ters of administration; she claimed to
be a cousin of the deceased and was
represented by Attorney II. M. Hannah.
Undertaker A. R, Rauli, of Spruce
street, also upplled for letters of ad
ministration, und Attorney Frank T.
Okell was present In the Interest of
Mrs. Snover. The latter was not Inter
ested In which of the two would bo ap
pointed, but Intended to establish her
right to the personal property, which Is
quite valuable. Register Hopkins, af
ter reserving the matter for considera
tion for a few days, appointed A. R.
Raub administrator.
Not more than two weeks afterward
the register received a letter from Har
rison W. Rnub, of Muscatine, la., set
ting forth the fact that he wasa brother
of the deceased and also of Illegitimate
birth. His son, John, came to Scran
ton, Invested with power of attorney by
his father and was prepared to prove
his title to the estate of the deceased.
Mrs. Snover, through her attorney,
furnished evidence to Register Hopkins
to prove that Raub willed to her his
personal property. She tried to prove
this by showing that on his death bed
Raub made use of this expression: "I
will give my property to Het, and If I
get well Het's going to give It back to
me."
The nuncupative will is refused to be
admitted to probate and the costs of the
proceedings are ordered to be paid out
of the estate of the decedent.
