GATHERED HERE AND THERE.
Professor R. L. Weston, late physical
director in the Scranton Young Men's
Christian association gymnasium, nan re
signed his position and gone to Roches
ter, where he has accepted the physical di
rectorship of the Young Men's Christian
association in that city. Luring his sev
eral years residence In Scranton he had
popularized himself no less by his genial,
whole-souled personality 1han by his
peculiar fitness for the office he so ably
filled, He has -left behind him hundreds
of young and older men whose regret over
his departure is personal, but who fondly
hope that the kind-hearted and capable
professor may be as eminently success
ful In his new field as he was In Scranton.
Physical culture was by Professor Weston
graced In all Its scientific and up-to-date
details. He was practical rather than
theoretical, but properly blended the two
Ideas to suoh an extent that his work
could not have been better done. Such a
comment Is much to say of ony man In
any profession, but It Is due Professor
Weston, who, since he was a youth, has
studied and applied the most approved
tactics of body-building. "The proof of
the. pudding Is In the eating," as the
Sroof of Professor Weston's abll.ty is
est shown in the work of the Scran
ton Young Men's Christian association
arfolpte who have held a pronounced lead
ership In base ball, foot ball and all
other amateur snorts since he first heg.m
to guide them. The predlct'on seems rea
finable that his fitness for the Rochester
office wilt be demonstrated bv the future
success of Its Young Men's Christian as
oclatlon athletes.

A term of common pleas court, to
continue thrve weeks, opened yesterday

another year. Between now and next
July the court terms will continue with
scarcely any Intermission.
Judges Archibald and Ounster were

noon, and J u dire iSearle. of lMontrose,
arrived after dinner. He will preside
in iNo. S the rest of the week. Judge
Archbald will sit In No. 3 and Judse
(Sinister In No. 1. The first thing done
was the hearing of reasons for the con
tinuance of certain of the cases on the
trial list and for one reason or another
the following were put over until the
November term: John lyree vs.
Moosie Mountain Coal company, whkcs;
Daniel llagscrly vs. (M. T. Kellar,
wages: Anna Munley vs. City of Scran

(leorge 'A. Jessup. et. a!., assumpsit;
Nelson Stelnback vs. City of Scranton.
trespass; Katz 'Bros. vs. John Stout, ap
peal. The case of the I'nlon Coal com
pany, limited, vs. the 'Delaware and
Hudson Canal Railroad company, tres
pass, was withdrawn. By -agreement
the trespass stilt of Nelson Steinbnck
against the city of Scranton was set
tled by giving Judgment against the
defendant In the sum of $409.
One of Judge Hundley's Notes
George Pu Bols .Dimmlck. represent
ed by Attorney . B. Price, tiled a peti
tion in court praying for thf stay of
execution on a note given by the Wy
oming Manufacturing company to the
late Judge Handley. Judge Arch bald
granted a stay, making the. rule re
turnable on Wednesday mornin.ir at 9
o'clock. The petition recites that at
the organization of the Wyoming
Manufacturing company there were is
sued $1110011 at par value, capital stock
to John 'Handle, for which stock Judge
Handle' paid nothing to the company.
That he was. from the organization of
said company until It became insolvent,
and at the time the note was given,
president of defendant company anil
that subsequent to the Issuing of stock
John Handle' paid to the treasurer
about $7,500. for which it Is believed the
note in the suit was subsequently given,
either by-John Handley himself or by
certain other persons Interested In the
company acting with him; which note,
as petitioner is Informed and believes,
was illegally and collusively given to
John Handley, as the stock which he
then received had not been paid for.
The petitioner claims that hf is a
creditor of the company and has
brought suit on judgments obtained in
the courts of West Virginia, and that
he represents the claim of J. W. Baylor
against the company, which has been
sued in th? court of this county. The
note that the company gave to Judge
Handley has been placed as a lien, and
the sheriff's sale will take effect on
Sept. 21. lS'j.V It Is to postpone the sale
that the petition was filed.
The Keinhsrt Market Troubles.
Judge Searle In No. 2 presided at the
trial of the Interpleader suit of A. F.
Duffy against Wade M. ,Flnn, trustee,
and John IS. i.Myers & Co. Major Ever
ett Warren, H. C. Reynolds and W. F.
Dlehl and H. F. Tlnkham are attorneys
for the defendants, and Attorneys John
P. Kelly and Senator 'M. E. iMcDnnald
for the plaintiff. 'Last April the mar
ket of ,M. H. Holtihart. at 31 and 33
Lackawanna avenue, was closed by the
sheriff. A previous arrangement had
been made with A. K. .Duffy, of the firm
of Gilmore & 'Duffy, to act as trustee
and take charge of the business. The
market was owned by W. H. Reinhart
and managed by his father. M. II. Rein
hart. Mr. Duffy consented to take hold
of the busLness land tide over the
financial distress. Mr. (Reinhart con
fessed Judgment to him and there was
a sale.
Wade M. Finn came forward after
ward as trustee In the interest of the
other creditors and claimed the stock
and fixtures. The suit Is a tedious one,
and is to determine the ownership of
the stock and fixtures. The evidence
was in the shape principally of writs,
notes, confessions of Judgment, etc. The
suit will take up the most of today.
In court room No. 3 Judge Archbald
heard the Interpleader suit of Ally Mil
ler vs. V. S. iReed. Charles L. Hawloy
appeared for the plaintiff and A. V.
Bertholf for the defendant. Reed re
covered a judgment against Constable
J. tS. Miller, the plaintiff's husband, an
execution was Issued, the sheriff made
a levy and sold out iMiller. The debt
was $240. i.Mrs. iMiller claimed that the
goods seized and sold belonged to her;
that she purchased them twenty-seven
years ago. The Jury went out to reach
a verdict and court adjourned for the
day.
COURT HOUSE NOTES.
John Shalkufsky, of Dickson City, was
yesterday discharged from the county
Jail under the Insolvent laws. . .
Frank K. Royle and D; L. Flches were
yesterday admitted to practice in the
courts of Lackawanna county.
Letters of administration were granted
yesterday In the estate of William Jones,
late of Taylor, to V. V. Evans, of the
West Side.
The report of the viewers In the mat
ter of damages In grading Myrtle street
was yesterday certified absolutely and the
city of Scranton ordered to pay the costs.
Deputy Sheriff Thomas J. Price sold at
public auction yesterday the stock and fix
tures of George W. Owens, the Spruce
street fur dealer. The execution amount
ed to over $11.0)10 and the sale brought $1,011,
F. L. Crane being (he purchaser.
RAILROAD NOTES.
It Is said thp rate from Philadelphia
to Atlanta will be reduced o $1H for
exposition visitors. A slight advance
over that figure .will cover the rate
from this city.
The fastest mile ever made was run
on the Reading and Jersey Central
railroad between Philadelphia and Jer
sey City In November, 1S92. The time
was thirty-seven seconds to the mile.
Before that time t he same -engine had
made a record of thirty-nine and a
quarter seconds. She was the first of
type of compound engines designed
for the running of lightning express
trains between Philadelphia and i New
York. -
The aggregate of gross earnings of
all roads In the United States reporting
for August, or a part of the month. Is
$2,067.014. a gain of only 6 per cent,
compared with last year, and a loss of
12.2 per cent, compared with the cor
responding period In 1892. For the
fourth week a little Improvement over
preceding weeks In August appears.
The percentage of loss compared with
1892 for the month IS lightly reduced,
though still large, and mainly on
Grangers, Southern and Southwestern
roads. 1
While It Is not generally known there
have been trains run over the New
York division of the Pennsylvania rail
road as far as the Trenton Cut Off road
at the rate of seventy-five miles an
bour, and over the Cut Oft line ait, the
rate of seventy milea an hour without
any Inconvenience to the passengers.
Oil the main line sixty miles an hour Is
often made, but the riding la nut as
easy as it is on the New York division,
owing o the curves. It is believed,
however, that this company will soon
follow the effort made by the New
York Central and show the English
rallioad oiliclals that as fast time can
be made here as In the old country.
The Pennsylvania Railroad company
has a new class of engines, which are
far superior to anything this company
has ever had before, and It Is contend
ed that If a fast run was made by
the other styles the new ones will do
considerably better.
COMING ATTRArTIOXS
IN CITY THEATERS
A clever farcical absurdity. "The Bi
cycle Girl," headed by Jolly Nellie Mo
Henry, conies to the Academy of Music
Wednesday evening. Jolly 'Nellie iMe
Henry Is well-known to most theater
goers from the Atlantic to the Puclllc
as being one of the brightest soubrettes
starring; In farce comedy. This time
she comes to us with a new play, "The
Bicycle Girl," having been specially
written for her with a view to what
people like. The skit Is by iMIke Wolf,
of the New York Lire, and was written
in the author's happiest vein, showing
the new woman and the coming man
on the bicycle fad.
An nttraction of more than ordinary
merit and one that all admirers of
good character acting will be Interested
in is "X Yenulne Yentleman." the new
play by Gusilleege. which will serve to
Introduce this exceedingly clever actor
in a new rule. It will be presented upon
an elaborate scenic scale and with the
strongest company Unit Mr. lleege hits
ever had In his support. "A Yenulne
Yentleman" Is described as an extreme
ly humorous play, gorgeously and pic
turesquely put upon the stage and pre
sented by a remarkably strong com
pany. At the Acudemy of Music
Thursday evening.
One of the many novelty acts seen In
the performance of 'Billy Van's Big
Minstrels Is that of Howe and Ili-ntx.
which deserves special mention, not
because they are one of the highest
salaried aerial teams on the stage, but
because they were engaged In Europe
after Manager Curtis has searched all
the American cities for an act that
would take their place. Their feats
are the most difficult, their attitudes
very amusing and their entire turn one
that invariably calls forth round after
round of applause. At the Academy of
Music Saturday, Sept. 21.
Grand opera properly presented nt
popular prices would have been deemed
almost an Impossibility years ago. even
In the world's great cities. With the
Improved facilities for transportation
and a thorough knowledge of the art
of organizing, Charles H. Pratt, how
ever, has succeeded In building up a
high class operatic company. The
Tavary Grand Opera troupe, now In
the second season of success, demon
strates that nothing Is Impossible and
thousands of audiences have given It
their approval. The singers are the
best to be had anywhere, the costumes,
scenery and accessories are perfect,
and the ensemble as fine as was ever
seen In the grand opera of Paris. At
Frothlngham Sept. 13 and 24.
PATRICK 1IARAVS FENDER.
It Will lie Tested on Ono of the Traction
Company's tlifr Today.
Patrick Haran, of Green Ridge, was
engaged yesterday putting a fender on
one of the open cars of the Scranton
Traction company. The fender was In
vented by 'Mr. illaran, and it Is expected
that everything will be in readiness to
give it a trial today.
Mr. Haran Is a machinist by trade
and is employed as a foreman at the
Delaware and Hudson roundhouse at
Green IRidge. He has given much
thought and attention to the fender
problem, and the appliance that is now
about to be tested Is the result.
it has a number of points of su
periority, it Is claimed, over any fender
now In use. One of the principal ones
Is that It Is fastened to the trucks of
the car Instead of to the body, thereby
avoiding much of 'the upward and
downward motion which keeps the or
dinary fenders bobbing about at a dis
tance of from three to fifteen Inches
from the rails. An automatic arrange
ment keeps the fender close to the rail
at all times. On paved streets, such
as we have In the center of the city, the
fender can be kept within two or three
Inches of the pavement.
The rim of the fender Is supplied
with a rubber cushion tilled with air to
prevent Injury to the person the fender
may strike. Spiral springs which al
low the fendr to recede when an ob
ject is struck also assist materially In
breaking the force of the blow. A
number of experts who have examined
the fender pronounce It one of the best
yet devised. It remains to be seen If
today's test will Jiiidify all that has
been predicted for It.
