SOME ATTRACTIONS BILLED
They Indicate That Sorsutonisne Will Be
Entertained Daring the Coming
Theatrical Season-Many Old
Favorites Will Bo Seen Here.
John D. Mlshler. of Reading, was In
the city yesterday In consultation
l. II. Bursrunder and
completing the details for the opening
of the amusement season ai me i;uu
mv of Mnsln next .Monday evening.
Their circuit oftheaters now comprises
the cities of Scranton. WHKes-uarre,
Allentown, 'Lancaster. Wilmington,
Keadlnif Altoona and Johnstown.
(Mr. Mishler said that the prospects
for attendance the coming season are
much better thun for that of the last
two years, because a great many more
persons are employed and the wages
have considerably advanced, a gratify
ing fact In which all persons are to be
congratulated. The crops, too. give
promise of being much better this year
throughout 'Hie country than In a long
time past.
There- are over 14.000 people endeav
oring t make a living; at acting In this
country, which, with the addition of
those required in and about a theater,
makes the number considerably over
30.000. In answer to the query as to
what attractions will be presented at
the Academy of Music the coming sea
son, Mr. iMIshler referred us to 'Mr.
Hurgunder. saying: "I merely do the
booking- and attend to the preliminary
matters of the theater here, while Mr.
Burgunder attends to the business and
all Its details very satisfactorily to me,
and he can give you more information
than I can."
Expects a Oood Season.
The reporter found Mr. Burgunder
sanguine of one of the most successful
theatrical seasons this town has ever
had. Qlr. Burgunder stated that the
Academy of Music had been thorough
ly renovated, some of the scenery re
painted, the main entrance newly dec
orated, and Buch general repairs made
as were necessary for the comfort of
the patrons and actors. .
The preliminary season will open
Monday, Aug. 26. with a farce-comedy
performance called "Jolly Old Chums,"
for which the manager of the company
promises an up-to-date performance.

O. Wallaoe, Arfhur E. Bendur. F. Clin
ton Scott and others. The company
has been rehearsing for several weeks
In Philadelphia and this week here.
The manager of the company says:
"I was anxious to open my season In
Scranton because the people have a
wide reputation for being good critics,
and I want their candid opinion about
my performance, believing that I will
more than please them."
"You know, Mr. Burgunder, that
many people prefer opera. What will
you give ua In this line?" queried the
reporter.
Operas That Will Bo Seen.
"Last season there were about four
teen comic opera companies on the
road," replied 'Mr. Burgunder. "This
season that number will be largely In
creased. There are. in fact, twenty
four organizations of this kind now
booking for next season or already

ADJUSTMENT 18 IN VIEW.
Railway Offiolals Conferring with P. J.
Mulharln and Louis Repp.
Several conferences have been held
recently between ofllelals ot the Lacka
wanna Street Hallway company and
P. J. Mulherln and Louis Repp, the
Old Forge property owners who rook
legal steps to prevent the company
from laying a trolley road in front of
their properties on the main road be
tween this city and Plttslton.
'While an agreement has not yet been
reached between the company and
these men It Is reported that matters
are so shaping themselves that within
a month the company will be able to
lay Its tracks from Rendham, the pres
ent terminus of the road, to the county
line, a mllo and a half further south,
where connection will be made with
the lines of the Wyoming Valley Trac
tion company. That will give a direct,
ouir'tlnuoun line of eleotrlc roads from
Forest City to Nantlooke, passing
through this city en route. ,
At present the line of the Lackawan
na Street Hallway company Is operat
ed as far as South Taylor by the Scran
'ton Traction company. At the expira
tion of a week the cars of the Traction
company will be running to 'Rendham.
A clause in the franchise under which
the tracks were laid provides that
fenders must be used on the cars. Just
as soon as the Traction company suc
ceeds In equipping the cars of that
line with fenders the patrons of the
road will be carried as fur as Rend
ham. No one can te.ll when the link
to iDuryea, connecting with the Wy
oming Valley Traction company's road,
will be completed, but some are of the
opinion tha't It will be in operation
within four months.
On the F.aut Side of River.
'Every effort is also being made to get
the line on the east side of the river
which runs through Minnoka, Moostc
and Duryea through to PlttstonV Al
though the Delaware and Hudson Ca
nal company has taken an appeal to
the Superior court from the decision of
Judge Gunster In the iMoosio crossings
Injunction proceedings, the officers of
the Scranton and Plttston Passenger
Railway company are confident that
they will be allowed to cross the Dela
ware and Hudson tracks In the man
ner prescribed by Judge Gunster.
The crossing to be used near the
'Mooslc station, where the track of the
trolley company will cross the tracks
of the Delaware and Hudson Canal
company at grade, Is being prepared,
and workmen are excavating at
Stark's Patch, a short distance fur
ther south, where Judge Gunster di
rected the trolley road to pass under
the steam road.
At Smithville, in Luzerne county,
where the electric road has to cross
the Lehigh Valley and Delaware and
(Hudson railroads, a steel bridge will be
used to carry the trolley road over
both railroads. It Is now being con
structed. The only other obstacle to the com
pletion of the road exists In Plttston
city, where there Is a dispute as to the
manner in which the rails shall be put
down. The dispute Interferes with the
construction of the last link of the road,
about 3,000 feet In length. This last
mentioned obstacle Is by no means an
insurmountable one. and in all proba
bility will settle Itself to the satisfac
tion of all concerned in the very near
future.
Two Injunctions a Mile.
The construction of the lines down
the valley have been beset by all man
ner or difficulties, but they have been
overcome one by one and only a few
now remain. 'When these are sur
mounted thpra Will tin tain llnca i
Plttston and all of the small towns on
both sides of the river between the two
cities will have direct communication
with Scranton.
In the construction of the road on
the west side of the river the company
was served with an average of two In
unctions for every mile of track laid.

Collision oo the Kopid Traaslt Trolley
Line at Klchmondale.
THE ORDERS WERE 'MISTAKEN
Both Conductors Thought They Had Right
of Way-One of the Cars Was De
scending Grade at High
Rate of Speed.
At Rlchmondale yesterday afternoon
a serious collision occurred on the
Lackawanna Valley iKa-pld Transit
company's trolley line in which Ave
persons were injured. They are:
FRANK KINQKN, Jvrmyn. leg broken,
hip -Injured and severe bruises.
MRB. FRANK RNQttN. Jermyu, bruises,
nerves affected.
JOHN HICKS. Carbondale, cut about
hoad and fui-e.
MRS. O'MALLKY. Archbald. hands cut
and side bruised. Suffers from shock.
TALUK V JENKINS, Carbondale, motor
man, arm broken.
The collision occurred at 5 p. m.,
about half a mile from Rlchmundalc.
Mot or man Tallte Jenkins and Conduc
tor Brennan were coming south from
Forest City wfth a closed car and were
descending a stetp girtanle. With the
trolley tied down the car was descend
ing ths decline at a high rate- of speed,
held In check only by the brake.
Near the foot of the grade iMotorman
Jenkins discovered open car No. 25,
In chua-ge. of Motorman Swift and Con
ductor Klrkbnlde, approaching toward
Forest City on the same track, along
which hl9 car was flying.
Accident Could Not He Avoided.
There was no motor to reverse, but
Jenkins hurriedly pplled the break,
but seeing that a collision could not be
avoided, he Jumped toward the em
bankment on the liflt side and broke his
arm above the wrlnt In doing so. His
action, however, undoubtedly saved his
life. The -motorman of -th north cur
also jumped, and, fortunately, escaped
all injuries.
The passengers, however, were In the
greatest danger, and four of them re
ceived severe bruises and' one a broken
leg.
Frank Rlntren and wife, of Jermyn.
were seated In the front end of the oaT
descending the hill and were extricated
from the dbiils and splinters and car
rled to a shel tered spot iby the roadside
and made comfortable until the arrival
of Dotltors Knapp, .Magulre and Taylor,
of Forest City.
After an examination by the phyal
clans they were removed in an ambu.
lance it o the hopltal at Carbondale.
Mr. Rlngen's leg waa broken at the
kn.?e, and his face badly cut. Mrs. tttn
gen's lnJtiirJf.- did not wxm to be any
thing more than .bruises and a severe
shock from the terribl? shaking up
which she received. She complained of
internal pains.
Boy's I'nfortnnato Expedition.
A boy named Hicks, of Carbondale
city, was on his way to his brother's
house at Forest City, and carried a
pall with him. 'It was his intention to
spend the night with his brother and
to go out into the woods picking black
berries today. 'He received a scalp
wound and a bruised shoulder and was
taken to Forest City.
An elderly lady, Mrs. OMalley, of
Archbald, was on the rear seat and
luckily escaped with a few bruises,
although she wag thrown down an
embankment of twelve feet. There Is
no reason why the cars should meet
at this place. There Is no switch with
in a mile on either side. The conduc
tor of the Carbondale car claims that
they should have passed on the branch
some distance beyond the top of the
hill; on the other .hand, the conductor
ot tne orest city car was positively
certain that they were scheduled to
pass each other at the Diamond mine
switch. Orders are given verbally and
they were misunderstood.
The escape of all of the Thirteen pas
sengers from fatal Injuries waa
miraculous, and if the cars had been
crowded, and particularly In the front
seats, there would undoubtedly have
been a great loss of life. Six feet of
the front ends of both cars were shat
tered into splinters.
Fixing tho Responsibility.
General Manager J. W. Altken and
Superintendent D. J. Duncan and a
large force of men were soon on hand.
The closed car was literally smashed
to flinders. The open car, being high
er, was less seriously damaged. The
road was cleared so that cars could
pans at 9.15 p. m. The damage to cars
was about (2,000.
The cause of the accident was a mis
understanding in orders as to the
swltoh at which the cars were to have
met. Orders are given verbally and
sent from one conductor to the other.
An eye witness says the, crash was
terrible. The electrlo wire became
entangled and for several minutes there
was a brilliant display. An investiga
tion will be made tomorrow.
A large party of excursionists missed
taking the south bound car by only a
minute or two.

MILLICENT CLARK.
long! Having1 arrived six or eight weeks
earlier than she was expected, she has
been an exceptionally hard baby to
raise. She was not strong enough to
nurse ot the breast and for one week
was fed from a spoon, upon, sterilized
milk. My husband, Dr. S. A. Clark, Is a
graduate from .Harvard Medical school.
At tiho end of the first week we put little
'MUllcent upon the bottle, and as ster
ilized milk In various strengths did not
agree wJ.-ii her, .we tried - milk
until she was one month, old. Then she
refused to 'Uike any more of this food
and tier weight had not Increased at all,
so we changed food Ogata. We tried
cow's milk, condensed milk, and four or
fivo food preparations, but notihlng
agreed with her as, lactated food, and
we went back to that after each now
trial. At itwo months old she had
doubled her weight upon lactated food.
Being an eight months' 'baby sheihas al
ways been very delicate, and she Is still
feedingupon your food and thrives upon
it. MUllcent was.born Aug. L5, 1S93, and
and now Is nearly fifteen months old,
and weighs about twenty pounds,
and 1s very plump. The photo
graph I enclose is lone latest
we have. We have gotten most
of t'he food at Coburn & Graves' phar
macy, of Northampton, Mass., they be
ing my husband's druggists.
Very truly yours,
Ksther Avery Clark.
FARMERS, TAKE WARNING I
Professor C. Coles, the Kingston astrono
mer, whose predictions of siorms, phen
omena, earthquakes and strange epidemics
ore nearly always fulfilled almost to the
letter, sends out the following special to
the press :
"The planets during the next sixty days
will be in about the same position as they
were during three of the greatest storm
and flood periods on record, and as his
tory often repeats 4taelf, I deem it wise
to forewarn and advise farmers and gar
deners to lose no time in harvesting their
cropa as soon as they are In order to be
harvested, for the lowlands are liable to
be troubled with water urn! the highlands
with frost." Prof. C. Coles.
