DAY III CRIMINAL COURT
Large Number of Cases Disposed of
Yesterday.
KOUIXSOX WAS FORTUNATE
Prosecutor DM Not Appear and Verdicts
of Not tiulltv Were Taken in iho
Three Cases Against Him Other
Cases That Were Heard.
E. R. Wright, of Kaston, was put on
trial yesterday afternoon before Judge
Craig In court room No. 2 on a marge
of false pretense preferred by Jeweler
N. H. Ievy, of this city. Wright was
engaged in the Jewelry business at Kas
ton and it Is alleged that by making
false representations concerning prop
erty that he owned In Easton he ob
tained credit for Jewelry purchased from
Mr. Levy to the amount of $t4. The
purchases were made In March and No
vember, ism. Attorneys T. V. Pow
deriy and GeTirge S. Horn conducted the
case for the prosecution and Attorney
John T. Martin defended Wright. All
of the testimony for the prosecution had
not been heard when court adjourned
for the day. The -ase will lie resumed
when court convenes again Thursday
morning. Court will not sit today, as it
is a legal holiday.
Before Judge Crate; In No. 2 yesterday
morning the case of the commonwealth
against Frederick Warlike, charged
with aggravated assault and battery on
It. C. Smeed, a bicycle rider, was re
sumed. Snieed, while riding along
Main avenue, Hydf Park, lust summer,
knocked down nnd somewhat injured
Mr. Warnke's little eon. This, the pros
ecution alleged, caused the defendant
to commit a brutal assault on Smeed.
In his defense Warlike said that after
Pmeed rnn clown hln son he expostu
lated with lilm and told him he should
not ride over public thoroughfare In
such a reckleps manner and the bicycle
rider replied In an angry manner that
the accident was due to the hoy's care
lessness and not to his.
Warnke's Sido of the Case.
Warlike says he then started to take
his hoy home and Smeed told him to go
to hell, which angered him so that he
followed the blcyd- rider nnd hit him a
Mow, causing Snieed to fall from his
bicycle. The fall. Warlike said, caused
the Injuries to Smeed's face that were
complained of, although he admitted
that lie bit Snieed several times after
he was on the ground. The Jury re
tired at noon to make up a verdict nnd
at 2 p. m. returned the defendant guilty
of assault nnd battery. He was sen
tenced to pay a tine of $'jr, and costs.
Nicholas Hlai'ks who was arraigned
on Monday afternoon before Judge
Judge Savidge charged with assault
und buttery on Shnnn Narushus, was
yesterday declared not guilty by a Jury
but was directed to pay the costs.
Margaret Harry, of Archhald. was the
prosecutrix In a case in which Patrick
Maloney was defendant. He was
charged with being the father of Mrs.
Hurry's child. The prosecutrix was the
only witness sworn. She says that Ma
loney came to her house and Insisted
on living there and she found It Im
possible to drive him away, on several
occasions he took advantage of her de
fenceless condition at night and as
saulted her. She did not have him ar
rested for this conduct, however. Six
months ago her child, a boy, was born.
Maloney did not make a defense and
was found guilty by the jury, which
did not leave the box. Mrs. Harry Is the
woman who about a year ago had a
number of young men arrested for tak
ing a horse into her bouse one night
and comoclllng her to give an exhibi
tion of bare back riding, a la new wo
man, O'Mnllcy tonnd Guilty.
Similar action was taken by the jury
In the case of the commonwealth
against Michael O'AIalley, of Provi
dence, who was accused of a like offense
by a young woman named Nora O'Mnl
lcy. who was employed by the defend
ant's parents. The young woman Is
now at the Hillside Home where her
child, a girl, was born. Her story was
to the effect that the defendant accom
plished his purpose by overpowering
her. No defense wns offered and a
verdict of guilty was promptly re
turned. He wus sentenced to pay a
line of $30. costs, pay S't to the poor dis
trict and $1 per week for the support of
the child until It Is seven years of age.
John and Mary Lukin were tried be
fore Judge Savidge on a charge of sell
ing liquor without a license. Lukin has
been In the county Jail for some time
and his wife resides) on Lloyd street
In the premises where It Is alleged the
liiiuor was illegally sold. It was in her
place that a fight occurred on Christ
mas night during which John Kedotls
was so severely Injured that for a time
his life was despaired of. He Is still a
patient in the Lackawanna hospital.
Several witnesses wore produced on
the part of the commonwealth who
swore that they purchased liquor from
the Luklns. Their defense was that
the prosecution Is a piece of spite work
on the part of Albert Hilda, who ac
cuses them with belnp Instrumental in
having him arrested on a similar charge
some time ago. Mr. and Mrs. Lukins
went on the stand and swore that they
did not sell liquor. They said they
conducted a grocery store and at times
gave bottled beer to their customers
w hen they paid their monthly bills, but
both strenuously denied that they ever
sold any liquor for coin of the realm.
At 4.10 the ease was given to the Jury,
stones and Tomato Cnns Thrown.
Thomns nnd Bridget Coyne, who live
at the Continental, were defendants In
a cave of assault and battery In which
Margaret Hannon wasi prosecutrix. She
charged the defendants with having
thrown stones and tomato cans at her,
but this statement of facts was dis
puted hy Mr. and Mrs. Coyne, who de
nied having thrown stones or cans and
averred that the only missiles that
plowed their way through the air were
propelled by the strong right arm of
the prosecutrix. The Jury found Mr.
and Mrs. Coyne guilty of assault.
Thomas Cavanaugh. of Jermyn,
watchman for the Hillside Coal and
Iron company, appeared as prosecutor
In a case againtt Kdward Kennedy,
whom lie churged with malicious mis
chief. Attorney John J. Murphy de
fended Kennedy and District Attorney
John R. Jones conducted the prosecu
tion. Mrs. Cavanaugh said that one
night Kenney came to her house and
wanted to get In. He was refused ad
mission and went away but returned
In about an kour and tried to get In
through a window. They threw water
on him and thvn he kicked In the door
and rushed Into the front room and
overturned a 'table and chair. She
thought that Kennedy was somewhat
Intoxicated. Tie defense will be heard
on Thursday.
A verdict of tiot guilty was taken In
the case of Patrick Kuane charged with
assaulting and battering Ann Munley
and the prosecutrix w an directed to pay
the costs. Pal (iodts did not appear
to answer a cha ge of larceny and re
ceiving preferred by U. J. Collins and

Wilt Start thl Year Right.
Buck, Whit more & Co., proprietors
of the Scranton Business College, an-
nounce that their school will reopen after i
its holiday vacation, on Monday, Jan- '
uary 6. and that a very large number '
of new students will enter at that time.
The success of this college Is some
thing phenomenal. Perhaps the fact
that It employs none but experienced
teachers, and that the demand for
graduates Is greater than the supply
has something to do with it. Their new
illustrated Journal is out and a postal
request will bring one to you.
f OMIXU ATTRACTIONS.
This afternoon and evening the great
and only tank drama, "Lost In New
York, " will be produced at the Acad
emy of Music. It Is not, as many peo
ple suppose, a wild and wooly melo
drama. It Is a well written comedy
drama, full of fun and containing a
pretty story full of heart interest. A
river of real water, upon which will be
seen real yachts, ferries, and a prac
tical steamboat, are among fhe many
realistic features of the production.
The company carries two car loads of
special scenery, said to be very beauti
ful and elaborate. The New York cast
will appear and many new and pleasing
specialties will he introduced.
The Howery, with Its variegated and
strangely Interesting types, bus been
made the subject of the lirst act of
"Chlmmle Fadden," the new play whlc.i
Charles H. Hopper will present at the
Frothingham this afternoon and even
ing. The play Is a version of that re
markable work of Edward W. Towns
end's of the same title, the sules of
which. It Is claimed, already exceed
those of even that other literary mete
or, "Trilby." Hopper's fame Is said to
be made with Ills latest essay. He has
always been a careful player.of splendid
method, sweet voice, and nimble feet.
Special prices of twenty-five and tifty
cents will prevail for the matinee.
The opera company that will present
"The Fencing Master" at the Academy
Saturday evening opened their Provi
dence, R. I., engagement last Thursday
night with this most popular of all the
operatic works of De Koven and Smith.
According to the press of that city the
house was well tilled and the production
gave complete satisfaction. Miss Kath
erlne Germaine In the leading role made
a lasting Impreslon for her artistic con
ception of Francesca, und the populur
comedians Tre Denlck nnd Ktheiington
kept the audience in laughter whenever
called upon by the turn ot the story.
The Syracuse Post says of "In Old
Maine." which "ill be- seen at Davis'
Theater for theTast three days of this
performance at the Academy Frl
the Welting Opera House last evening
by Tan Daiielgli and his company, is a
new piece. As the play ndvances. It
discloses a good deal of merit. The
second act. lirst scene, was about as
pretty as Syracuse has seen in some
time: a wheat Held, trees and genuine
rail fences formed the urlniiptil parts
of It. Hazel Daiielgli. ns the waif they
always smuggle Into plays of this sort,
was clever In her part."
John Kernell. in his latest, and by
many said to lie his greatest, success,
"The Irish Alderman." is to give a
week's production nt the Academy Fri
day evening. Kernell's droll witticism,
his Irrepressibly funny manner and his
more than strong company give to his
coming a factor of interest that is not
often seen in a traveling organization.

RUSH OK TAXPAYERS.
Last lay for Paying the Tax Without a
Penalty Has Gone II.
Tt being the last day for the payment
of city taxes, there was an unusual rush
at the ottlce of City Treasurer Brooks
yesterday until late In the afternoon.
The amount taken In was between
$48,000 and $40,000. and this is considered
a very large sum when the fact is
known that the taxes of the corpora
tions and large real estate holders had
been paid heretofore. Any one who has
not paid hts tax will have to stand the
penalty, which is five per cent, on school
tax and seven per cent, on city tax.
The penally on school tax will not In
crease, but on the city tax It will: one
per cent, will be added every month
that It remains unpaid.

PLANS FOR ft MUSIC BALL
Drawn by Harvey J. lilachvumtl, the
Well-KnoKn Young Architect.
IDEAL IUILDING I'OK lThTOSB
Indicia i.liBk Stone and Marble the
.Material Specified for the Outer
Walls-Manner In Which the
Interior Is Divided.
Handsome designs for an ideal music
hnll, such as Scranton should possess,
are on exhibition at the show window s
of Clark, the florist, at corner of Spruce
street and Washington avenue. Tho
designs are original with Harvey J.
Blackwood, the well known young ar
chitect whose excellent work has at
tracted much attention in this city.
As will be seen by the drawing in
Clark's window, the building is of an
unique design but artistic in general
effect. A brief description shows that
nothing has been omitted that would
aid In its completeness.
The structure has a -frontage of 132
feet and a depth of HM feet. For the
tirst Btory the exterior of the walls are
to be Indiana lime stone und above the
tirst story gray marble 1b provided for.
The roof will be of copper with the ex
ception of the two main dormers where
marble is used.
Details of the Plans.
In the basement provisions are made
for bowling alleys, gymnasium, plunge
tank, shower and tub baths, barber
shop, servants rooms, kitchen, boiler
rooms and toilet rooms. On the first
tloor are sitting rooms, library, general
oltlce, cafe, billiard room, coal rooms
atyl large reception hall. Two ele
vators connect the reception hall with
the upper stories. The main staircase
leading from the reception hall is one
of the features of the building. Opening
from a reception hall is also a large
veranda, capable of seating 600 people,
which can be used as a summer concert
veranda. The large garden at the
rear of the building connects with
the veranda and the nnnd stand
Is placed directly between the veranda
and garden. People seated in the gar
den may hear the band as easily as
those seated on the veranda. The gar
den Is laid nut with beautiful Mower
beds, fountains, seats, lawn tennis
courts, luwns. Isolated nooks und
walks.
Large Auditorium Provided For.
The second floor consists of eight
chamber suites, coat rooms, four stud
ies, large art gallery, two lurge prac
tice rooms, meeting room, large ball
and curd rooms. All above the second
tloor Is taken up with main auditori
ums capable of seating U.200 people,
the stage of which can accommodate an
orchestra of 200 and a chorus of ('.(Hi.
The ladles' retiring room and parlor
Is to be right ot the nudttorlum. Like
accommodations for the gentlemen are
to the left. To the rear of the stage
Is the largo concert organ, which can
be used in unison with the orchestra.
The pitch of tloor of the auditorium Is
regulated by machinery. In case the
ttditorium Is to be used for a roncert
the Moor will have a pitch of four feet
in seventy; and If It Is wished to use the
floor for ii ball directly after the con
cert, the front section of the floor Is
raised two feet und the rear section
is lowered two feet, thus giving a danc
hig area of not only that in the main
auditorium, but ulso of the stage area.
