The sewers 'and drains committee
which visited the Mount Pleasant ra
vine Wednesday, recommended that the
estimates committee be instructed to
provide for a culvert about 100 feet long
to connect the North Main avenue cul
vert with the Mount Pleusant colliery
invert, thereby making a covered sew
er us far as the ravine, which runs be
tween the Diamond and Mount Pleus
ant dumps, und which can, in the opin
ion of the committee, be safely used as
an open sewer.
Three gets of competitive plans for'the
Xuy Aug engine house on Franklin ave
nue were received In response to City
Clerk Lavelle's advertisement, and re
ferred to the joint lire department com
mittee At a previous meeting a proposition
wan received from, the Providence and
Ablngton Turnpike company to jilaoe
the West Market street portion of the
roud in good shape for $2,500 and keep It
in repair for $1,500 a year. There was
some doubt as to whether, under the
terms of this proposition, the first year
would require an expenditure of $2.!ilX
or $4,000, and the matter was referred to
the Judiciary committee, which, Inst
night, brought In n report containing
an opinion that $2,r.0i would cover the
cost for the first year and that the $l,r.00
additional would not he due until one
year after the date of the completion of
the repairs. The report was ordered
liled.
An ordinance providing for an electric
light midway on the Undcn street
bridge was favorably reported from the
light and water committee and ordered
printed.

Peter T. Mulligan. $865 for the work
complete. The proposals were referred
to the sewers and drains committee.
Ordinances for railroad gates at the
Urondway crossing- of the Jersey Cen
tral and Dodgetown. bridge crossing of
the Delaware and Hudson passed third
and final reading.
IN COMMON COUNCIL.
.Mr. Nctrlls Was Tnll of Vinegar I:nst
Might and I'rowntd Fiercely.
Tn common council last night Mr. Oli
ver moved to take a recess until after
the holidays, but Mr. Ner.lls raised the
point of order that no regular meeting
can be dispensed with by a mere reso
lution and as the chair ruled the point
well taken the lower branch will meet
the night following Christmas If enough
of them cftn be gotten together.
Mr. Nealis also pitched Into City En
gineer Phlllios again for not making a
report on the resolution directing him
to secure options on the Da vies and
Allen properties on North Main ave
nue, which Mr. Nealis Intends to con
vert Into a public park. A resolution
fathered by Mr. Nealis, demanding a
report from Mr. Phillips was adopted.
Remit of the Star ChittnSsr Session.
The Judiciary committee reported ad
versely the resolution authorizing the
cjty solicitor to take an appeal from the
report of the viewers on the damages
Incurred In grading New street. Coun
cil adopted the report. This committee
also reported favorably the resolution
reducing the assessors' salary to $400 a
year.
The taxes committee reported favor
ably and council approved a resolution
exonerating all firemen, paid and vol
unteer, who have seen three years ac
tive service, from occupation tax.
Among the new measures Introduced
were a resolution providing for the
opening of Birch street from lis present
terminus to Washington avenue, and an
ordinance providing for an additional
permanent man for the Pnoenlx com
pany. The ordinance Increasing the salary
of paid firemen to $00 a month passed
third reading: as did also an ordinance
for the purchase of land for. the exten
sion of Wyoming avenue In a southerly
direction to Phelps street, and an ordi
nance for a lateral sewer on Mousey
avenue, between Marion and Green
Ridge streets. . '
A llnnd-tomo Sign.
. The new sign recently placed In front
of the large shot store of Lewis, Keilly
eV Davles' by tha Suburban Electric
Light company, Is one of the handsom
est In the city. The firm name is made
brilliant at nightfall by two hundred
and llfty-elght small incandescent
lamps which give the store a metropoli
tan apjiearance. Lewis, Rellly & Da
vies are among the most enterprising
of Keranton merchants, and their
double stores are up-to-date tn the mat

as in other attractive features.
T1IRF.L DIVORCES GRANTED.
I'nhoppy Couples Mho Could Not I.ivo
'together Peaceably Separated.
Three divorces were granted yester
day by the court. Phemla Jubuskl was
separated from her husband, Theodore,
to whom she was married on Jan. 31,
1S94, at Mayfleld by the Itev. Theopan
Obuscavldse, a Greek Catholic priest of
Olyphant. After living together a fort
night, the husband began a system of
brutal treatment. He prevented her
from going to the- grocery store and
used to lock up everything belonging to
her. They separated and came to
gether again, but could not agree. The
second time he used to beat her and
cull her vile names. She went living
with him the third time, but with no
better success.
John J. Morgan was freed from hln
wife Murguret. They were wedded at
Washingtonville, Ohio, on Nov. .1, 1887,
and lived together two years. She de
serted her home then and the llbellant
has not seen her since.
Elizabeth M. Daniels Is no longer
bound by the ties that bound her to
lUchard K. Daniels at Rlnghnrnton on
Christmas Day, 18S6. They did not
have much peace from the date of their
union until Daniels deserted her in 1890.
LITTLE TKIXIE IS CLEVER.
Unusually Ciood Performance Given at
Davis.' Thontcr.
An unusually clever aggregation of
specialists Is the "Little Trlxle" com
pany which entertained at Davis' the
uter yesterday.' Every member is good
in his or her particular lino, and the
lines are all right. There Is a serious
plot running through the performance,
but that does not Interfere with the
entertaining features.
May Smith Kobblns leads the com
pany. She Is small in stature, but very
tail In cleverness. Her daintiness is
charming. Rosa Delaro and Lorene
Jansen. dance well and Miss Delaro
sings the soprano solo, "Jamie," In an
exceptionally good voice. Hurry Fan
ell does the negro act in fine stylo, and
his singing was loudly applauded. Fred
Hobbliis Is very entertaining.
The show has an abundance of good
things, including a talented burlesque
villain, Lew McCord; and a German
yodler, George P. Watson. "Little
Trlxle" will be repeated this and tomor
row evenings with afternoon matinees.
A GRAM) DISPLAY.
The Best in This l.lno Ever Alado In
Scrnntnn.
The most eluborate and tastefully
trimmed stores in Scranton for the
coining holiday season are the Scranton
Cash Store and the Lindley Market on
Washington avenue. The elegant dis
play of line confectionery In one of the
windows is so artistically arranged It
is simply a perfectgdream and the next

monds, Raisins and Nuts Is deserving
great praise to whoever had It in
charge, while in the third the magnifi
cent display of Oranges, Grape Fruit,
Bananas, Pine Apples, Grapes, etc., Is
attractive In the extreme. The fourth

SMITH REPEATS CHARGES
Docs So in an Affidavit Signed 1iy
His Client, Mr. Jennings.
I'APCKS OFFERED IX EVIDENCE
Application for a Change of Vcnuo In the
Hums-Smith Case Was Mado by
Argument Before Judges Gun
mer and Edwards Yesterday.
Attorney Cornelius Smith nnd hln
client, John G. Jennings, are anxious to
get out of Lackawanna county to try
their cases and with that end In view
Mr. Smith argued In court yesterday af
ternoon for p. change of venue in the
case of Burns against him on the hear
ing of the rule to strike off the award
of $15,000 given by the arbitrators in me
libel suit. The argument was made be
fore Judges Gunster and Edwarus.
Judge Arc hbald stepped down from the
bench when the case was culled and
took a chulr among the lawyers who
hud gathered uround to hear what was
going on.
Mr. Smith's first move was to read an
affidavit signed by Jennings, which was
a reiteration of the charges made in the
paper book filed of record In the Su
preme court. The document set forth
that on the 10th of October. 1S8S, James
Jennings, son of John O. JennlTS, was
seriously and permanently injured uy
the Lehigh Valley Railroad company at
Mud Run In a collision, and that In Jan
ary, 18i, two actions were begun in the
common pleus court of this county
against the company. That Attorney
Ira H. Burns, the plaintiff In the above
action, conspired and confederated with
Thomas Reynolds, Myron Kusson and
others for the purpose of hindering, de
laying and defeating the plulntifts In
their actions against the Lehigh Valley
Railroad company, and for the above
alleged wrongs committed by the said
combination against the alllunt he has
brought In the courts of common plena
of Lackawnna county an action for con
spiracy against the Lehigh Valley Rail
road company. Judge R. W. Archbaid,
Ira H. Burns, Myron Kasson, C. K.
Pryor, Judge E. N. Wiliard, Major
Everett Warren and Lemuel Amerman,
which action Is now pending In court.
An Interested Party.
That Judge Archbaid, being president
judge of Lackawanna county, is re
quired by law to try the present action,
is personally Interested, and that ob
jection was made by Mr. Smith to al
lowing Mr. Knsson to draw the Jury on
the ground that he packed the Jury In
the second trial of the case of James
Jennings against thecompany, and upon
the further ground that he threatened
that If any objection was made against
him, he would continue to pack the
Jury.
Judge Archbaid called on Mr. Kasson
to make a statement In defense of the
charges mude against him and Mr.
Kasson stated that Mr. Smith having
come to his office ami charged hint
with packing the Jury in the Jennings
case, he got mad and said things to
Mr. Smith, which he ought not to have
said. Tin? court overruled the objec
tion on the ground that It was not
sworn to, nnd ordered Mr. Kasson to
draw the Jury In the case.
In the wind-up of the affidavit this
Is what he says of the press of Scran
ton: The persons who have continued
as aforesaid against the affiant, his
attorney and his case, are persons of
great power nnd influence over both
the press and the minds of the inhabit
ants of Lackawanna county. That
this power and inlluence for the past
six yeurs, through the press, nnd other
wise, has been exercised and used
aguinst the affiant, his attorney and his
case.
Speaks of Local Prejudice.
That when the plnlntiff, through his
attorney, would muke objections to the
many and repeated wrongs committed
against the alliant by the combination
aforesaid, the local press would declare
It a sensation in the Jennings case,
and then declare the objections false
and groundless, and then In more severe
terms comment against the affiant, his
attorney and his case, and In this man
ner a strong local prejudice has been
created against the affiant and his
attorney, and the said local prejudice
now exists, and the defendants cannot
obtain a fair and lnpartial trial in
Lackawanna county.
The last section of the affidavit
charges Prothonotary Pryor with not
choosing an arbitrator for the defend
ant properly. The next thing offered to
the court wns the declaration nled with
the praecipe In the $100,000 damage suit.
The object was to connect' the affidavit
with the proceedings then being argued.
The affidavit sworn to by Mr. Jennings
cha'rglng Mr. Kasson with packing the
Juries was next produced. This is the
paper that caused Jennings to be held
for perjury.
He next offered another affidavit made
on April 17, 1893, when the charges were
first made that there was a conspiracy

set up against the plaintiff. Next the
affidavit was ' offered, which made
charges aglnst the late Judge John F.
Connolly for setting aside the verdict.
That charge was made and could not
be substantiated; nor even was It shown
that the semblance of suspicion rested
on the dead judge.
Judge Connolly's Remarks Quoted. .
The remarks of Judge Connolly In
setting aside the verdict was offered In
argument. They were to the effect that
the verdict was set aside because it was
against the evidence and was exces
sive. The answer of Major Everett
Warren to the application -or a change
of venue in 1893 was offered. In that
answer Major Warren said that the
plaintiffs had made unwarranted and
false accusations ngainst the court, and
any comment made by the newspapers
was warranted by the malicious and
wilfully false statements of the plain
tiff's attorney.
These papers were offered for the
purpose of showing that there prevails
a general sentiment aguinst Smith and
Jennings In this county. Attorneys
John P. Kelley and Jospeh O'Brien rep
resented Mr. Burns and they objected
to the reception of the papers as argu
ment on the ground that they had no
materiality or competency to the case
which was being argued. There were
no affidavits filed on the part of Mr.
Burns, It not having been thought nec
essary to do so.
Judge Edwards said the court would
take the papers and give them the full
est consideration. The position of Mr.
Burns' attorneys is that there Is suf
llclent refutation In the Immateriality
of the argument of Smith and that he
court will readily discover tills when
they are passed upon.
Mr. Smith at first wanted to have the
court send for a stenographer, but this
the court refused to do. Smith said the
case might have to go to the Supreme
court and he wanted to have tne record
Judge Edwards told Smith to try the
case here tlrst.
