Owing to- the fact that no new per

. chairman, made arrangements for the

not to set and announcing that the
names of the new committee would be

The committee has declared next Sat
urday's examination off. No other date

Washington, Nov. 19. Ex-Speaker
and Future Speaker Thomas R Heed,
of Maine, writes that he will be In
Washington on Nov. 25. The explana
tion of Mr. Reed's dolay in reaching
"Washington, which Ih Renerally ac-
. cepted, imputes it to a desire to avoid
as lonsr as possible the twrsnnaj rnnor-
1 tunltles of representatives who are am
bitious of committee chairmanship and
good committee assignments. The di-ps-
ure for these places among the mem-'
bers who wer re-elected t the nxtf

?umed that It Is greatly intensified with,
he near approach of the reassembling

JURY SAW SAFE DRILLED
Uurglary, However, "as Not the
I'urposc of the Cracksman.
JL'DGE AKCHBALD A WITNESS
It Was lono to Tost the Temper of the
Metnl-Jury lia greed in One Qaso.
Itcisona for a New Trial In Je
' np Case Filed.
Before Judge Love, of Bellefonte, In
No. i! court room, the assumpsit suit of
W. C. Townsend, of New York, against
Frank Carlucci, of this city, was put on
trial yesterday and only two witnesses
were examined, all told. Major Everett
Warren represents the plaintiff and At
torneys W. W. Watson and T. V. I'ow-ilerly-,
the defendant The case was
tried before and the Jury disagreed.
. The amount in dispute is J1.0D8 for
granite furnished to Mr. Carlucci for the
pedettaJ of the Washington monument
erected on the court house square by
the Pntriotlc Order Sons of America, of
Seranton. The two wttnefses examined
are representatives of tre Townsend
onmiiKtiv. with which the defendant
made a contract to furnish him the ma- I
toriul for the pedestal. Their evidence j
was In proving the contract and show
ing by other documents In the shape of
telegrams, letters, etc., thnt the com
pany did what was required "of it. Mr.
Carlucci refused to accept the granite
when it arrived for two reasons; one as
he alleged that it was not shipped In
tlrro, the other that it was of inferior
quality.
The Jury In the case of L'.verlght,
OreenwaWI & Co., of Philadelphia,
against T. F. McDermott and A. K. 15ar
bcr disagreed ami were discharged.
Alonai Porter, a colored man. was the
foreman of the Jury and In anr.wer to
some of the 'questions of Judge Ed
wards said the Jury might agree If they
could Hear more evidence. The Jury
stood six to six and they were accord
ingly discharged.
.- It U t!'i S?C!ind MsngrcCment.
This Is the second time the case has
been tried and each time It resulted In
a disagreement. The question whether
or not the paper on which the defend
ants signed themselves as security for
Ayres was a sealed one was tho tangle
that the Jury could not see through.
In the main, court room the assumpsit
suit of the Cincinnati Safe and Iock
company against M. M. DeWltt. of this
city, was tried before Judge Archbaid,
and In the afternoon the court, counsel
and Jury went over to the freight depot
of the Centrnl Railroad of New Jersey
to see a test made of the safe which Is
the matter In dispute,
i Mr. lJeWItt purchared the safe from
the rlalntlff in the spring of ISO! and in
due time it was shipped here. Hefore
taking It out of the freight depot the
purchaser caused some one skilled in
the nrt to get a chisel and hammer and
mnke a test of it to see whether or not
It was J'lirglar proof, ns per agreement.
The eypert very easllv drilled n small
hole into the outer layer of metn.1, and
from that Mr. PeWItt concluded thnt it
would not be a dcslrnble place to keep
his cfish. so he refused to take the safe
or pay for It.
Pnlt was brought against him and the
jury found a verdict In favor of the
rlntntlit for the entire amount of the
claim with Interest. A new trial was
granted by the court on the ground that
Mr. DeWltt was justified In refusing to
take the safe when he made o test and
drilled Into the metal so readily. After
the case was closed for the plaintiff yes
terdny Attorneys C. C." Donovan and
J. W. Carpenter asked the court that
the Jury be permitted to go over to the
freight depot to pee a test made show
ing whether or not burglars or thieves
could break through and enter in.
Ihev Tested the Safe.
The court agreed that this was proper
and accordingly all put on their hots
end overcoats and went out. It ap
pears that the outer layer of the metal
Is quite malleable and on that account
it was very easy to drill a hole In It.
But farther In there are ribs of chilled
steel so closely interwoven that no
chisel no matter how highly tempered
could penetrate. A test was made for
the benefit of the judicial spectators.
There was no - .trouble In drilling
through the outer soft plate, but when
the chilled steel . ribs of the Interior
were reached, the chisel struck a snag
and could not go any farther. That
satisfied the jury and they came back
to court.
In No. 3 court Judge Edwards presid
ed at the trial of the suit of Renedict
R. Carr, of Forest City, against C. D.
Wetherlll. of Dunmore, administrator
of the estate of Sarah Carr Wetherlll,
his wife. Attorney Charles L. Hawley
represented the plaintiff and Attorney
K. H. Khurtluff the defendant.
The deceased wife of the defendant
on Nov. 6, 1890, bought from her
mother, Mrs. Margaret Carr, of Dun
more, a property and paid for It all but
$;00. She gave a mortgage for the bal
ance of the purchase money on a lot
on Drinker street, and the terms of
tho mortgnge were that It would be paid
In Installments. In consideration of
boarding with her daughter, Mrs. Carr
gave her a receipt of $254 on the mort
gage. That is all was paid on It, as
alleged by the plaintiff, who was the
son or Mrs. Carr. 'i'ne aeienuani
claimed he paid the funeral expenses
which amounted to enough with the re
ceipt for J2r.4 to make the $500. The
Jury found a verdict for the plaintiff
In the sum of $485,00.
Reasons for New Trial In .Tcssnn Cnsj.
In the case of Assignee J. It. Gunstnr
ngalnst George A. Jkprup and his sure
ties, Major Everett Warren, of counsel
for the defendants, ye3terday Hied the
following; reasons for a new trial:
"First The verdict of the Jury la
against the weight of the evidence.
"Second The verdict of tho Jury is
against the charge of tho court.
"Third The court erred In Pot affirm
ing the several points of the defendant,
which he refused to affirm.
"Fourth The court erred In rejecting
the offer to prove that the directors
who had indemnified Dr. Throop
against tho deposits of the bank were
perfectly solvent and able to pay the
same.
"Fifth After-discovered evidence,
specifications of which will be filed at
an early date.
"Sixth Counsel for defendants re
spectfully ask leave to fllo additional
reasons and more specific ones as soon
as they havo an opportunity to examine
the stenographic notes of testimony,
ns well as the chnrge of the court and
tho answers to the several polnt3 sub
mitted Dy tne parties."
Court granted a rule to show cause
why a new trial should not he allowed
and made It returnable Dec. 6, at 2 p. m.
IN A POWDER EXPLOSION.
Two Won Seriously Injured in the Mine
nt Dnryoa Yesterday.
John Makandalo, miner, and Frank
Illuro, his laborer, were seriously In
jured In William Connell'a. mine at
Duryea yesterday tnornlhg by the pre
mature explosion of a blast.
. They were tamping a powder cart
ridge preparatory to firing a blast -and
the powder exploded, scattering large
pieces of coal right and left. Both
men were severely wounded, but the
extent of the Injuries of either was
not fatal. The miner was taken to tho
Lackawanna hospital.
MR. LAULK'3 VIADUCT. '
The Strcoti and ' Bridge Commltteo with
, City Engineer Phillips View the Site.
. - O. E. Chittenden, Flnlay Ross and
Victor Lauer, of the streets and bridges
committee of select council, went - to
Tripp's crossing yesterday to look into
the advisability of carrying out Mr.
Lauer'a scheme to construct a viaduct
over the tracks at that point..
'-'CKy Engineer Phillips, who accom
panied the party, ahowtd .where the
viaduct would land on either side and
also other facts established by his sur
vey. The only apparent objection to the
scheme is the possible big bill of dam
ages it will entail. For 1.000 feet on the
providence side the properties will be
damaged to a great extent. On the
Hyde Park side of the tracks tho dam
age will not amount to much and as the
Delaware, LacVawanna and Western
company owns all the property affected
It Is likely that the city will not be
called upon to settle for any damages at
all. Mr. Lauer assured the committee
that the cost of the viaduct would not
be over $30,000 and ns the Delaware,
Lackawanna and Western company
and the Seranton Traction corrpany are
each willing to pay one-third ? the
cost the city will have only $10,000 ex
pense for construction.
The committee c.dvlsed Mr. Lauer to
sec the property holders on the Provi
dence side of the tracks and, if they
can be induced to accept nominal dani
ages.bring in an ordlnnce for the via
duct in tl e for the estimate commit
tee's consideration.
COMING ATTKACTI0NS.
Otis Skinner to Appear rt Academy of
Mns'e in Villon the Vagabond
The production cf f'Vlllon, tho Vr-rn-bor.d,"
whiih Ctis fiklnncr will play at
the Academy of Music on Thursday
evening next, is attracting a great deal
of attention, from the ctuiracier of t! r
piny Itself, which Is an adaptation of
the character of the great French poet,
Francois Villon. This remnrkable niai
lived and rhymed about the' middle of
the fifteenth century, nnd he gave to
the mediaeval pcetry that which it had
hitherto lacked the personal tone. His
life was very romantic and, If history
Is to be believed, a verv varied one,
because, judging from his biographers,
Villon spent a great deal of his time
behind prison walla. The piny, It Is
said. Is a strong one, the dialogue be
ing oiean and ctlsp, as well as bright
nnd the situations and climaxes, both
effectlvo and highly dramatic. The
company which supportn Mr.. Skinner
Is, It la said, an exceptionally stiong
one, and much above the average com
pany one seeB In the support of a star,
Tho coming production Is unquestion
ably one of the most Important dra
matic events of the season in this city.
Jolly Old t.hn ins Friday Night.
The management of the Acndcmy Is
moL't fortunate In having for Its mag
net Friday evening such a slde-spllt-tlng
farce comedy as "Jolly Old
Chums." Like all such mirth produc
ers, the comedy has but a slender
thread of plot on which to hitch Its
many specialties and muleal numbers,
but plot is scarcely needed, and If tho
applause and laught"r of an audience
Is any criterion, as It surely Is, "Jolly
old Chums" Is a pronounced sueeets.
Tho company Is made up of very clever
people Including Miss Cnnie I.amont,
and MI3S Ltllle Ptlllmnmis. "the new
woman of the period." There nr
enough pretty girls In the play to al
most make one's head whirl,' nnd nil
are clever. Thomas .1. (Irndy and Tludd
Unss ns the ".lolly Old Chums" earn
the title given them on the tirogr.irr.iMc'.
Incidental to tho comedy there a:o al
most two dozen musical selections
tvhlch Include all the new Bongs and
the best of the old ones. '
Final Tour of Vnni. .
"Wang" comes this season with ev
erything bright and new. It will be
seen at the Academy Saturday mat
inee and night. "Wang" has but two
nets, yet the drops spoken of for its pro
duction will cost several thousands,
while the total bill for scenery and ac
cessories will probably reach SI 5,000.
When It Is considered that theso'dgures
do not Include thousands spent on cos
tumes, nor the further thousand re
quired for lithographic work, tho thou
sands for the railroad trnnsport?t'"n
for nearly a hundred people, and the
thousands necessary to have to fall
back upon for salaries in case of bad
business. It can readily be Imagined
that the theatrical business, especially
In the department of comic opera. Is one
requiring abnormal business qualifica
tions as well as almost unlimited capi
tal. Al Hart, as the Regent of Slum,
is said to be equally ns good as his
famous phototype In that most fam
ous part. "Wang" Is now on Its final
tour.
London Belles Company.
Following the "Play and Players" at
Duvls' popular theater will be seen for
th? first time In Seranton Rose Sydall's
I.ondor. Belles big show, said 'to be one
of the morft expensive companies of the
kind on the road this season. Besides
the two comedies "Widow Wymes' Re
ception" and "The Continuous Show"
there will be a r.trong olio of special
ties by the following people: Campbell
and Shepp, Leo nnd Chsnman. the
great Elwood, Kelly and St. Clnlr, Jones
and LnPearlo and Miss Madelle For
rest. The company Includes thirty peo
ple, the music Is new nnd catchy, the
costumes gorgeous and the marches,
etc., entrancing.

HOW THEY DIFFER.
.Man a Creature of Habits; Woman I'til
Izcs Anythina Thnt in Handy.
From Llpplncott's .Magazine.
Man Is a creature of cast iron habits;
woman adapts herself to circum
stances: this is the foundation of the
moral difference between them.
A man does not attempt to drive a
nail unless he has a hammer; a woman
does net hesitate to utilize anything,
from the heel of a boot to the back of a
brush.
A man considers a cork-screw abso
lutely necessary to open a bottle; a wo
man attempts to extract the cork with
the scissors; If sho does not succeed
readily the pushes the cork In the bot
tle, since the essential thing is to get at
the fluid.
Shaving Is the only use to which a
man puts a razor; a woman employs it
for a chiropodist's purposes.
When a man writes everything must
be In apple-pie order; pen, paper and
Ink must be Just so, a profound silence
must reign while he accomplishes this
Important function. A woman gets
any sheet of paper, tears It perhaps
from a book or portfolio, sharpens a
pencil with the scissors, puts the paper
on an old atlas, crosses her feet, bal
ances herself on her chair, and confides
her thoughts to paper, changing from
pencil to pen and vice versa from time
to time, nor does she care if the chil
dren romp or the cook comes to speak
to. her.
A man storms If the blotting-paper Is
not conveniently near; a woman dries
Cue Ink by blowing on it, waving the
paper in the air or holding It near a
lamp or fire.
A man drops a letter unhesitatingly
In the box; a woman re-reads the ad
dress, assures herself that the envelope
is sealed, the Btamp secured, and then
throws it violently into the box.
A man can cut a book only with a
pnper-cutter; a woman deftly inserts a
hair-pin and the book is cut.
To a man "good-bye" signifies the end
of a conversation and the moment of
his departure; for a woman It is the be
ginning of a new chapter, for it Is Just
when they are taking leave of each
other that women think of the most
Important topics of conversation.
A woman ransacks her brain trying
to mend a broken object; a man puts it
aside and forgets that for which there
Is no remedy. Which is the superior?
NOT SO AWFULLY SLEEPY.
T.icro is Moro Than One Way to Beat a
Hall road.
"What station was that?" demanded
the passenger In the rear Beat, sudden
ly rousing himself, straightening up
and .projecting his voice through the
dimly-lighted car.
The conductor, who wns coming
down the aisle, stopped and hi-ld his
lantern close to the speaker's face.
"It was Bragdon," he replied. "Ain't
you the man that wanted to get off at
Smallvllle?"
"I am," rejoined the passenger. "I
asked you to wake me up when we got
there, and you said you would."
"I did wake you up."
"Oh, you did, did you? How far have
we gone pBst Smallvllle?"
"Forty-five .miles."
"And you waked me up? Strange I
didn't know anything about it!"
"I shook you, called out the name of
the station, and you said 'all right'
and reached for your hat. I supposed
you were wide awake. Several passen
gers got off there and I took It for
p-rnrfo yon wer one of them."

"Well, I wasn't. I am pretty hard to
wake up. You ought to have been sure
about it. I had friends waiting for me
at the station. It'll make an awful
muss. I wouldn't have had this hap
pen for a thousand dollars!"
"You can telegraph them, can't you?"
"1 suppose I can. What's the next
station?"
"Flaxwood."
"Does the next train back stop there?"
"Yes."
"Well, you give me a note to the con
ductor, can't you, telling him to pass
me back to Smallvllle? It's as little as
you can do. It wasn't my fault that I
got carried past."
The conductor Fcrilbled a few lines
on a piece of paper and handed it to
him.
"We're coming to Flaxwood now," he
eald, looking nt him sharply. "Are you
sure you're awake?"
"I'll get ofr here, p.nyhow," responded
the passenger, grabbing his valise and
darting for the door, "whether I'm
c.wnke or not."
As the train pulled out of Flaxwood
the hrakemari standing on the rear
platform of the last coach heard a voice
calling out in tee darkness:
"Hello, old fellc?.-! I was afraid you
wouldn't be here to meet me. I came
all the way on a EO-cent ticket. There's
n r.re than one way to beat a railroad,
b'gosh!"
F.NT1KK. AL'DIKNCK BAPTIZED.
Bridges Uivcs Way at Fulton, Mo., During
n l.cliioi.si ( crc iinnj .
Fulton, Mo., Nov. 19. Much excite
ment was caused thlB afternoon by the
falling of the Gerhardt bridge over the
Stinson river, where an Immense crowd
had gathered to witness the baptism of
a number of colored people by the Bap
tist colored church minster. The bridge
was crowded with people, both white
and colored. Without any warning
whatever a fifty-foot span went down
with a fearful crash, preeipltntlng the
crowd of men, women and children into
the water from a height of fifteen feet.
The people fell In heaps In water four
or Ave feet deep.
A large number were more or less In
jured, but no one was killed. The acci
dent threw a damper over the baptis
mal proceedings for a short time, but
It was Anally resumed.
