A distressing shootltiff accident oc
curred Saturday afternoon in Waverly.
A rllle In the hands of Htierli Archbald.
the young son of Judge U. W. Areh
hald. of this city, was llnch.irned. the
lull entering the body of Mrs. (Ireeli.
the wife of h farmer. Mis. tin-en was
alive last night, but .she is possibly
fatally wounded.
Young Archbald, Mnttle l.eliii. son of
Henry Helln. Jr.. and Paul Welles, son
of Attorney Welles, had Ixtjn hunting
during the afternoon, and stopped at
the farm of James A. Linen, of this
city, for water. The farm is managed
by Mr. tin-en and his wife.
Younp Archbald sat on the topmost
Flop lcidlne; to the porch while receiv
ing a kIups) of water from Mrs. tireen.
who stood befrtre him. 'His Title rested
between his knees, and was cocked and
loaded. The butt of the weapon was
partly on the edge of the porch, which
had Just been scrubbed and was damp
and slippery. As he reached for the
glass (f witter the butt of the rltle slip
ped from the porch, and. In falling, the
hammer struck against the edge of the
flooring.
Mrs. tireen Veil l ifeless.
There was a report and Mr.', Olreen
sank, apparently lifeless, although she
soon recovered consciousness. Tile ball
of 22-cali'luv. in Its upward tlipht. struck
the woman above the lowest rib on her
right side and wont Inward and up
ward. It j thought that the ball penetrated
the lunsas blood Mowed from the mouth
as well ns from the external wound.
Mr. Lin.-n and IMr. tireen were in the
Immediate vicinity of the house, and
were told of the accent. They met
v. Uh delay In securing n physician, but
finally Dr. Maokey. of Waverly. arrived
and later IT. X. V. Leet. of this city,
to whom an urgent call had been sent.
Ir. Leet was accompanied by Judne
Archbald.
Within a few moments after the
shooting Mrs. (Ireen. for the second
time, became unconscious and remained
In that condition for several hours,
when her senses returned." The physi
cians could rot determine whether the
patient's condition was the result of
shock or Internal hemorrhage, as the
sympotms were pronourwl to be iden
tical. There was little doubt, however,
that the ball had penetrated unite deen
Into the body, but it could not be pos
itively determined that the lung was
pierced.
No No from the Pntient.
Last nlfrnt no news of the patient
could be learned In this city. Dr. Leet
stated, however, that if Mrs. (irein't
condition in the result of shock, then
her chances1 for recovery are very fav
orable; but if the condition Is due to
internal hemorrhage the wound Is more
lik ly to en d fatally.
Xelther young Archbald or his father
or members of the family could be seen
yesterday. All are grief-stricken, es
pecially th.' boy, who, although only
13 years old. fully realizes the enormity
of the accident. He is unconsolable .

SMITH'S LATEST STEP.
Wants Award Stricken Off and Case
Tried In Common Picas.
Attorney Cornelius Smith presented
a petition to court Saturday, and It
was receive;! by Judrre flunsfer. The
paper asked that a rule be granted on
Attorney I. II. Iturns to show caus
why the in.oiiA award given to him
by the arbitrators In the libel suit,
should not. be set aside, judgment
opened and the case brought for trial
before a jurv of twelve men In com
mon pleas court.
'Mr. Smith assigns as reasons for the
request that Prothonotary I'ryor and
Dputy l'inthonotary My rwn Kasson
were charged In the alleged libelous
papcrbook with being a part of the
comlblnatl'in designing to frustrate the
ends of Justice In the Jennings case
against the dehlgh Valley railroad, and
that the duties required to be per
formed by the prothonotary In choosing
arbitrators, should have been done by
the recorder of deeds, sherlT, county
treasurer or coroner. Also thnt the In
ability of Attorney A. J. Colhorn to
Appear nt the sitting of Ihe arbitrators
did not warrant Attorneys (ieorge M.
Watson and Frtd W. Fleltz In filling
th vacancy.
Attorney JoFcjih O'Hrlen. of counsel
for Mr. Unrns. was jiresent and asked
that the ru!" be returnable next week,
when the rule to strike off the appeal
will be heard.

mission may toe closed. There Is a de
ficit of $3,464, and the executive com
mittee of the mission Intimates that the
mission will. 4(e. abandoned unless the
ds.lcit Is met. This condition has
caused the convmittee to make a public
appeal.
Since Feb. 11, 1S92, when the mission
was opened 1.4G6 meetings have ilieen
held, the meetings representing a total
attendance of 13U.T30 persons; 3.0(Kf free'

W. J. Ilnrke Confident Thnt the Herring
Hearing Is Not Yet I ndcJ.
Colonel Colquitt, of the government,
at 4.30 o'clock Saturday afternoon fold
ed his tent and left Scranton for the
District of Columbia. Collector tirant
Herring. 'the same evening, boarded tho
6.07 Delaware, Lackuwnnna and West
ern train, and returned to his home, In
Hlo.ims'ourg. IMcanwhilo the investiga
tion Into the charNH'H preferred by V.
J. liurke against Mr. Herring is In n
condition of bn rtl:i.
'Mr. Iturke Is temporarily defeated,
but not dismayed, lie l u(.,m.i,iui,
of ultlmivtely accomplishing the over
throw of the Hori'lnjr rule, and bases
his cnleulation on the expectation of
Commissioner Miller's deplre to see the
charges thorc.ushly sifted, and either
corroborated or confuted.
In mi interview Mr. Huike says he
hopes to be able to prove effectively
every charge he hua brought against
Mr. Herring, lie refused, lie said, to
offer anv further testimony on account
of the deellnail.m or Colonel Colquitt
to carry out the arrangements which
were made bi fore any evidence was
offered.
In political circles the supposition Is
quite prevalent that Colonel Colquitt
was not Invested with any great
Judicial powers, and that the case will
be dealt with by one higher in author
ity. He Is a 'brother of liltod States
Senator Colquitt, and was a colonel In
the confederate army.

the generally undemonstrative and cild
auiKences of that town, und proves the
possession of ability in the orgonlxa

The Midnight xneclnl.
At Davis' theater. Monday. Tuesday

says 'this attraction will give his pa
trons an tqiportunity to niqireclnte the
reeen. reconstruction cf his stage, as
this play, with Its wealth of sc-nery,
could not hnve been put on last year.
The (Philadelphia I tem rays of the play:
" 'The Midnight Special' Is something
more than a spectacular ph-ce though
Its scenic equipment nnd effects ire
something to be re-nembered. The sec
ond act Is a reproduction of the flrand
I'nlon depot at Haltlmore, nnd It Is In
every reryect a perfec t triumph of st.i-re
effect. The company which presents
"The "Midnlclit iSpeclal" Is an aggrega
tion of clever actors on 1 actresses who
walked isst nif ht with a will to make a
success of their respective parts."

"The Foundling." which had r long
run In Now York last season at ll'oyt's
theater, will be presented nt the Fr ith
Ingham undir the direction of C'nmli-s
Frohnian. Although Manager Froh
man has every confldi nee In the play It
self, he has enraged for one iff Its prin
cipal roles Cbsy VltzeTald. whose
sudden leap to popularity has made her
a drawing card. Miss Fitzgerald will
have an appropriate role; ard -luring
the play she will dance. In addition to
the English bitrlesquer, Mr. Frohman
has provided some very excellent actors
out of the Frohmnn forces. As a curtain
raiser, the one-act play by Augustus
Thomas, called "The ISIart Upstairs,"
will be presented.
