MONEY IN REAL ESTATE.
Mr. Nash Explains How Owner and Agent
Can Ko Benefitted.
At Nash's .real estate exchange In the
Raub building yesterday morning after
presenting a list of properties for sale,
Mr. Nash made some remarks which
will prove of value to persons Interested
in real estate. He said, in part:
"Owners of real estate should be lib
eral with their agents, and should fix
the percentage figure at the beginning.
Owners should not then be satisfied
and trust to luck and their agent to
dispose of the property, but they
should keep the agent Informed of pos
sible opportunities.
"Real estate men can help their In
dividual Interests by being liberal to
each other. If one hears of a chance
to sell or buy but does not have a prop
erty to meet the demand, he would not
Injure his own Interests by conferring
with other agents. I am sure I want
to work with my competitors, and it
would give me pleasure o have them at
tend my weekly sales. We can learn
something of each other."
Mr. Nash offers property at public
sale every Monday morning at 10
o'clock In his office in the Raub build
ing. The Bcniitlcs of Cut Gloss.
Nothing Is so much admired by the
average housewife as rich cut glass. For
wedding presents, holiday and anniversary
gifts cut glass holds Its own as one of the
favorite articles. The brilliancy and finish
of high grades of cut glassware can never
be successfully Imitated In any field, and
the popularity of tho first-class specimen,
therefore, never diminishes. Turnquest,
the Jeweler, has recently added a large
line of cut glass to his elegant stock of
Jewelry, etc., at 205 Washington avenue.
Tho ware is from the factories of L. Straus
ft Sons, who are among the leading manu
facturers of cut glass in America, and
the patterns In every Instance are of
artlBtlo design, while the finish cannot be
excelled. The ware should be seen to be
appreciated.

JUDGE SHOWSJS METTLE
Scranton's Lightweight and Mike
Leonard on the Frothlngham Stage'.
U0UT WAS DECIDED A DKAW
Until tho Third Hound Leonard Was tho
Aggressor Juilgo In the Final
Rounds Proved Himself a Gen
eral and a Hitter.
Hardly fewer than 1,200 spectators
saw the boxing tournamniit at the
Frothlngham theater last night, and
everyone that went was well satisfied
that he had received his money's worth.
What proved tho star attraction was
the 6-round bout between the light
weights, James Judge, of this city,
champion of northeastern Pennsyl
vania, and Mike Leonard, who Is a
great favorite wherever he goes, and
has been dubbed the Beau Brummell,
of Brooklyn. G. W. Turner, of this
city, went to New York a few days ago
and arrangwl to bring Leonard on here
to meet Judge. The latter was open
for all comers of his weight; and Leon
ard reached town fully confident of
showing Scranton people how easy he
could best their Idol.
But he did not do anything of the
kind; on the contrary he was forced
to use his hands to the best of his
ability. At the end of the sixth round
the referee called the proceedings a
draw and It displensed the spectators,
as it had been announced that the
referee would order another round If
neither had the best of It.
It was six minutes past 10 o'clock
when both men got on the stage; Judge
entered the ring first, and his appear
ance was greeted with thunderous ap
plause. It was clearly a Judge house.
Leonard stripped in the ring, and when
the spectators saw the outline of his
almost perfect frame and build, they
cheered and cheered him. Judge wore
only a white Jockstrap. Leonard wore
a strap and trunks. Leonard's seconds
were John L. Mitchell, of this city, and
Lee Allen, of New York, who came here
with him. Judge's seconds were Charles
O'Neill, of Camden. N. J and Richard
Eavers, of the Excelsior Athletic club.
George A. Fogarty, of Camden, N. J
and John. T. Brown, of The Tribune,
were time-keepers. Will Gilmartln, of
New York, was referee.
A flash light photograph of the prin
cipals, their assistants, other ofllcials
and the spectators surrounding the
ring was taken from one of the boxes.
Leonard's Great Confidence.
Leonard appeared confident and later
displayed a prowess which explains
why he had recently been so success
ful In Miner's New York theater, where
he was ready to meet all comers. He
possesses a remarkably strong body,
and has heavy shoulders and a good
reach. He keeps always in good trim
and was in fine condition last night.
Judge looked to be In only fair condi
tion. The spectators were quite orderly,
but at times they grew enthusiastic"
and accorded their applause to each
man as he deserved it Captain Rich
ard Edwards, of the Scranton police
force, occupied a position at the ring
side and saw that no brutality oc
curred. There was no occasion for po
lice interference, as the bout was clean
and scientific.
When the men shook hands and went
at it Leonard appeared to be the heav
ier of tho two; but not so, he weighed
a few pounds lighter. He Is more stock
lly built and compact, and on that ac
count presents a heavier appearance.
Judge Is tall and built after the fash
Ion of one of Buffalo Bill's young In
dians, lithe and with long arms and
legs. Leonard was so sure of his abil
ity to win that he forced the early fight
ing and was. paving the way to elve
Judge a knockout blow. But the latter
was so cautious and clever In dodging
that Leonard became less aggressive
and let Judge do a good deal of the
leading.
Following Is the bout by rounds:
Round 1. Leonard) did most of the
leading, although for nearly a minute
not even a feint was made. Leonard
seemed confident and Judge cautious.
Leonard apparently was watching an
opportunity to lead from the beginning,
while Judge moved forward and back
ward evidently looking for distance.
Leonard led unsuccessfully twice.
Judge offered a return only once and
acting only on the defensive. Honors
even.
Round 2. Leonard was on the ag
gressive throughout the round, but for
each lead he received a return and be
gan "shoulder bunting," which he con
tinued until the end of the bout. Leonr
nrd led for the body and Judge for the
face. The round closed with Judge
still on the defensive and cautious.
Honors even.
Judge Begins, to Get Even.
Round 3. Leonard did not resume his
rushing tactics, but was the aggressor
until the middle of the round. Judge
then seemed to have sized his man and
the distance. He lead three times, land
ing twice on the face with straight left
punches, iLeonard continued to "shoul
der bunt." Judge had slightly the best
of it.
Round 4. Time and again Judge
landed on the face with his left. Leon
ard continued his reaches for the body
and when falling to make a counter
continued to "shoulder bunt" amid
yells of foul. Judge later In the round
protected his side with his left fore
arm and continued to do so during the
remaining rounds. Just before the
gong sounded Judge had landed a
straight right-hand jab on the face,
which dazzled the Brooklyn man.
Leonard landed several right and left
body blows.
Rounds 5 and 6. The two final
rounds were repetitions of the fourth.
Judge had evidently profited by the
earlier rounds and avoidedmany of the
Brooklyn man's stiff short arm punches
aimed for the ribs. During the fifth.
Judge had Leonard on the ropes. He
landed two telling face blows during
the infighting, which dazed Leonard.
When the gong sounded at the end of
the sixth round Judge seemed to have
had slightly the best of It.
The first event of the evening was a
friendly setto between Toby Gardner
end James Tlghe. The second was a
Bide splitting and highly amusing "go"
between two young negroes about 20
years of age. It did not ook as if
either had on the gloves before, and at
the end of the third round one of them
cried and had to be led from the ring.
Harry Courtrlght and Billy Mathew
son went on for three rounds. James
MoCadden, of Wllkes-Barre, and John
Dempsey, of Philadelphia, spent a few
minutes on the stage. Dempsey was
Intoxicated and the men were taken off
before the end of the second round.
John L. Mitchell and Richard Hicks
gave a clever exhibition which pleased
the spectators.
The funniest event of all was the bat
tle royal, among five darkles. The five
were placed In the ring together and
fought until three had been taken out.
The two remaining fought until one
gave up and the winner, a Baltimore
darkey, was awarded a prize of $5,
Excursion tickets printed at The Trib
une office.
SCRANTON HEBREW MISSION.
One to Be Organized in This City Next
Foil.
Rev. A. C. Gaebaelln, of the Hope of
Israel mission, New York city, deliv
ered an address last evening at the
Grace Reformed church upon the object
of the mission, and at tho conclusion of
his address answered, many questions
regarding the sentiments contained in
his remarks.
The reverend gentleman announced
that he would address a meeting of
Jews in Finley's hall this evening, and
that a Hebrew mission would be or
ganized In Scranton In the fall. In the
course of a few weekB he intended to
make a tour through Russia, Germany,
Bulgaria, Poland and Galllcla, preach

Hotels.
Henry Thompson, 55 years old, a

pucketbook containing J3S.05.
Mrs. Golden and her sister, Mrs. Mc
Tammany, of the North End, were
about to get aboard the 5 o'clock
Wllkes-Barre train. The Wllkes-Barre
and Carbondale trains were about to
pull out at the same time and there
wus a large crowd at the depot.
Thompson had a few yards of black
silk which he covered up his arm with
to hide It so that he could put his hand
unnoticed Into a person's pocket. Mrs.
Golden made an outcry and the fellow
ran back through the depot. Mr. Spell
man followed .htm through the waiting
room out the front and around the side
entrance. Thompson ran down the
platform and jumped on the hind car of
the departing Carbondale train. Mr.
Weddign came to Officer Spellman's
assistance end they got on the train.
Thompson Jumped and .dropped the
pocketbook and the silk. He hurt him
self and could not escape. Alderman
Millar held him In $1,000 bail.
Sunday night was a fruitful period
for sneak thieves and losses are re
ported from three prominent hotels of
the city.
At the Scranton house some unknown
person entered the room of Richard
KImmacher, the porter, and John Car
roll, an attache of the hotel. They
slept together and the pocketbook of
the porter, containing $45, was taken.
Carroll's wallet had some small change
in it, and It also disappeared. The con
tents of the room were scattered about
and showed that a thorough ransack
had been made. No trace of the thief
is at hand.
Day Clerk James T. Doyle, of the
St. Charles hotel, found his brand new
$35 overcoat missing from the rack In
the cloakroom when he went to look
for it yesterday morning. Bartender

body1nt7ier"iyer.
Supposed to Be tho Man Who Fell Into
Roaring Brook.
It Is thought that a decomposed body
found in the Susquehanna river at
Pittston yesterday Is that of the un
known man who was seen to fall Into
Roaring Brook, this city, during the
high water of several weeks ago. Two
men fishing along the river between
the two Pittston bridges discovered the
body and, with the assistance of two
others, brought it ashore.
The face of the drowned man was
fairly preserved. In the clothing there
was found a letter, a pass-book, sample
blocks of paint and a card on which
was printed "W. R. Wezeyk & Co., 221
Center street, near Penn avenue. Scran-'
ton." There was other printed matter
In the Polish, language on the card.
The letter was dated Krosno, Austria,
Feb. 7, 1895. It was written In Polish
and was signed "Your father, Jon
Kmolek." The name of Pavolo Kmolek
was written on the pass-book,
Mr. Wezyk, of Scranton, said that
the man found at Pittston was prob
ably a boss painter who used to come
Into his shop. The man was about 26
years old, but he (Mr, Wezyk) did not
know his name.
HIGH ABOVE THE STREET.
Will Be Located a Roof Garden and a
Restaurant.
A unique idea and one seldom at
tempted except In large cities Is to be
applied In the proposed 10-story build
ing to be built by J. C. Miller on his
Spruce street lot between Washington
and "Wyoming avenue. The proposed
structure was described In Saturday's
Tribune. Since then some important
changes have been decided upon.
The upper story Is to be planned for
a restaurant, and above that will be a
roof garden of beautiful design, open
on all sides and partially covered. The
whole of the lot, 173 by 60 feet, is to be
covered by ten stories. At first it was
Intended to have only the three or four
lower stories cover the whole lot.

STRIKE 1 EXAGGERATED
Few Cars Running in Carbondale and
but Little Violence.
MEN APPEAL TO THE PUBLIC
Circulars Distributed Charging the Com
pany with Having Made False State
ment Deputy Sheriffs on the
Ground-Trouble Is Not Feared.
Highly exaggerated stories are re
ported about the street car strike In
Carbondale. The most serious act was
the placing of obstructions on the track
at Lee's crossing, north of Carbondale,
and the spiking of switches at various
points along the line toward Forest
City. The ties and other matter
piled on the track near the site where
the Wild West show was camped, It Is
believed, was the work of some
vagabonds who accompany Buffulo
Bill's aggregation.
The appeal of General Manager J. W.
Altken for a posse to Sheriff demons
resulted In having Deputy Sheriff
Frank E. Ryan go to Carbondale yes
terday morning at the head of the fol
lowing special deputies sworn In for
the occasion: John Tlerney, Walter
Williams, Rufus O. Bryant, Jerry Drls
coll, Timothy Jones, James H. Jones,
John J. Davis, Henry Bums, W. F. Mor
gan, Robert Hung, John Woelkers.
They were reinforced at Carbondale
by H. S. Hartman, J. C. Hartman, and
J. G. Thompson, of the company, who
had taken the oath as peclal deputies.
Constable Michael Moron and cx-Chlef
of Police Wlllium Gordon, of Carbon
dale, had a few men In charge and
they all Joined with Deputy Sheriff
Ryan, who went to the scene where the
obstructions were placed on the track.
Mr. Ryan found the road open and no
disposition toward trouble; there was a
small army of boys, who guyed the
officers and the men who had taken the
strikers' places.
Few Curs Running.
Travel was Impeded almost alto
gether. Only five cars were running to
the show grounds and these were sllm
ly patronized. The crowds engaged
rigs from liverymen and It was a profit
able day for the cabby. The company
had at noon secured men to fill the
Btrlkers' places.
The old employes had decided to re
turn to work In accordance with the
terms of the manifesto Issued by Gen
eral Manager Altken; they all reported
at the power house yesterday morning
at 6 o'clock. They were all to go back
1f the three men discharged were rein
stated pending a meeting of the direc
tors of the company, which will be held
this afternoon.
About 8.30 o'clock Superintendent
Duncan arrived and said that the three
discharged men could not be takun
back. The strikers then refused to re
sume work and yesterday morning ex
pressed themselves as being firm In
their decision to hold out for the rein
statement of the discharged men.
Company Accused of Falsifying.
The men have sent the following no
tice to the public, which was Issued at
noon yesterday and distributed on
handbills through the city:
To the Friends of Labor.
Yestenlny morning the majority of the
old employes presented themselves at the
power house ready for work, when it wns
decided to ask more time In which to con
sider tho above letter (mcalng the mani
festo Issued by General Manager Altken).
A meeting was held and Mr. Duncan pro
posed that the strikers and three dis
charged men return to work, and appoint
a committee to meet the officials on Tues
day evening and effect a compromise.
The offer was refused and the strike con
tinues. Anthracite.
The above statement Is absolutely un
true In regard to the three discharged men.
The company has never offered to allow
these three men to return to work.
Garfield Assembly, No. 1220, K. of L.

are past. There Is one deputy placed
In the vestibule of each car as It makes
Its trips. The men hope to win and

BIT ON THE FINGER.
Patrolman Day's Encounter with a
Vicious Drunk.
Patrolman Lona Day had an exciting
experience with a cannibalistic drunk
en brute yesterday evening. The man
was in a saloon on Penn avenue, and
had some drinks which he refused to
pay for. The officer was called and
ejected him.
On the sidewalk he became very
abusive and when Mr. Day placed him
under arrest he resisted and bit the
patrolman on the finger. Patrolman
Melnzer arrived, but before he did Dan
Weber, the Penn avenue butcher, made
himself conspicuous by Interfering.
He, too, was placed under arrest. Both
are now in the lockup awaiting a hear
ing. WHO WAS HE?

Coroner Kelly held an adjourned In

papers found upon his person were ex
amined by the Jury. One paper was
a pay sheet of the Blue Ridge Coal
