TITLE TO JAKE YIKOLA
Case Affecting the Issue Argued in
iyiperior Court.
REHEARSING ANCIENT HISTORY
Tracing Title- Back to ILIhk Charles It. of
tCnsland-Tbo Mooele Crossing Argu
ment Ended Before Noon-Two
Other Lackawanna Cases Heard.
In superior court yesterday a case
was argued which affects the title to
Lake Winola. The Luke Winola asso
ciation Ih the appellant and Mott and
others ' the appellee. Some years ago
an action in ejectment was begun In
the common pleas court of Wyoming;
county for the ownership of the lake
and when it came to a trial a compul
sory hon-sult was granted because the
sheriff's, return of thn writ was not
sworn to.
The appellant was represented by
Attorneys W. K. and C. K. Little, of
Wyoming, and the appellee by Con
gressman K. J. Jordan and C. O. Der
shliruT. of Tunkhannock. Ancient his
tory figured in the argument. The
charter of King Charles II to William
Petm was quoted.
When court convened the hearing of
the case of the Delaware and Hudson
Canal compuny against the Scranton
and Pittston Traction company was
resumed. It ended before noon. Then
the case of John J. Jones against Cor
nelius Wunds was argued. The case
was tried in Lackawanna courts twice.
Jones originally owned a team of
horses and a wagon which he leased to
Wunds with the understanding that the
lutter would purchase them outright
after a certain time according to a cer
tain bargain. While he had Hie outfit
In his possession he got into tlnancial
trouble and the constable sold him out.
The question Is the validity of the sale.
Attorney H. M. Hannah argued, for the
appellant and Attorney U. H. Patter
son for the other side.
' North F.nd Trespass Cose.
The next case argued was one In
which Thomas Handers and James H.
Jenkins are appellants and Thomas
Davidson, appellee. The case was tried
before Judge Kd wards In tho local
courts. During the fall of the year 18M
the defendants. Thomas Sunders and
Jumes II. Jenkins occupied a lot of land
In the North 10ml on Itright avenue.
Below this lot and lying between it and
Parker street, which runs at right
ungles with Bright avenue, are three
lots, euch CO feet wide. The central
lot was occupied by the plaintiff. Thom
as Davidson. The lot of the defendants
was on higher ground and the natural
(low of water has been from the de
fendant's lot towards Parker street.
The plaintiff claimed that by reason
of the grading of the defendants' lot
the waterflow came thereafter on his
lot. Suit wart brought for dumages
and the Jury gave a verdict of $:100. The
defendants who are now the appellants
before the Superior court, allege that
the court below should be reversed be
cause Judge Edwards refused a non
suit and again refused to give binding
instructions, and also that In his charge
he failed to define negligence to the
Jury and let them run wild In their
finding. Attorney A. A. Voshurg ap
peared for the appellant and Attor
neys C. H. Soper and Joseph f Hrlen
for the appellee.
IN COMMON FEE AS COURT.
Cnse of the .Morris k ICssex Coal Com
pany In Still on Trial.
Common ideas court matters yester
day consisted of no new. cases except
one from those that had been on trial
the day before. In No. i the cnse of the
Morris and Essex Mutual Coal com
pany against the Delaware, Lackawan
na and Western Railroad company
went along without much Incident. The
defendants' side of the cnse opened and
the position as outlined when the case
opened Is being proved by witnesses.
The railroad company is defending
on the ground that the case Is not with
In the statute under which the suit wus
brought, that the culm taken was done
with the permission of Mr. llepp, and
that the suit was begun more than six
years after the culm was used by the
Delaware, Lacka wanna and Western
It will require today and tomorrow, and
maybe longer before the case goes to
the Jury.
Ilcnrd Before Judge Archhald.
In the main court room before Judge
Archbuld the plaintiff's side of the suit
of Isaac W. Cobb against K. H. Cobb for
a Judgment note of XSSI was heard and
soon before adjournment Attorney
HulsliindtT opened to the Jury for the
defense. The note runs away back
about thirteen years and the case was
tried before and a new trial afterward
granted. In No. 3 court room the ap
peal suit of Jacob Harris against Con
stable tleorgeC. Wilson was called af
ter the case of Simon H. Vearkle
against Contractor Mathias Stlpp went
to the Jury. A verdict was agreed upon
after court adjourned and will ue re
reived this morning.
Four opinions were handed down yes
terday In cases which had been argued
at argument court. A new trial was
granted in the trespass suit of William
Cramer and John J. Cure against Wil
liam Miller. This is a case where both
parties desired a rehearing. The plain
tiff sued for timber taken from land in
Biukely borough and Maimed about
$400; the Jury returned a verdict of $4.
The plaintiff wanted a new trial be
cause the dumages were not high
enough and the defendant wanted a
new trial because any damages at all
were granted.
Cases of I'lynn and Mcflnuldrick.
In the cases of James Flynn and Pat
rick McOouldiick against the People's
Mutual Live Stock Insurance company
the court refused to strike off the non
suit granted when the cases came up for
trial. The piainuns. each had a horse
Insured with the company on a certain
day. They came around the next day
to, get their policies and pay for them,
but the agent could not change $5 and
the policies were not delivered. The
next duv the animals Inconveniently
died. But the non suits were granted
for the reason that there was a specific
provision In eaoh policy agreeing on
the part of the plaintiff to begin suit
within six months after the date of the
death of the animals, and it was not
until nearly a year afterward that the
suit was brought.
A new trial was granted In the case
of J. W. Sisco against Jqshun K. Miller,
both of Klmhurst. Tne defendant's
bull gored an ox owned by the plaintiff
and In the suit brought for the recovery
of damages the Jury brought in a ver
dict of ,100. .

with and Interrupts all the other business
of the county commissioners' office; and
Whereas, It is evident that In order to
give the proper attention and considera
tion to the other branches of county af
fairs. It Is necessary that the payment
of costs and fees In commonwealth cases
be placed, under more systematic regula
tions; therefore be It

AN EXPENSIVE BREAK.
Excavation Necessary to kepair the
Sewer In Front of the Wyoming,
The broken sewer In front of the Wy
oming house on l.ai kttWHiltia avenue
was unearthed by Street Commissioner
Kinsley's men yesterday and was found
to have settled neurly three feet at the
center of the break. It will be neces
sary to excavate for quite a distance
on either side of the present opening. It
Is Judged, in order to uncover all the
damaged pipe. A trench extending from
Wyoming avenue to a point about op
posite the Lackawanna avenue en
trance of the Wyoming will have to In
due;, It Is thought, to put the sewer In
proper repair.
City Engineer Phillips Is now thor
oughly satisfied that the settling wat
caused by the pipe becoming broken
and the gravel being washed away
through the sewer.

DEATHS EXCEEDED BIRTHS
That Is What the Hoard of Health
Report Shows.
MALES THE MOST 1'LEXTIFl'L
Statistics Show That the Number of Fe-
malca Born in the City luiriag
the Year 189. Was Less the
Number of tne sterner Sex.
There were more males than females
born In this city during 18i)u and the
deaths exceeded the births by a small
margin, according to the annual report
of the board of health which Secre
tary Brlggs is at present compiling for
publication.
Another remarkable fact shown by tne
secretary's figures Is that the number of
births Is steadily on the decrease since
1892 when 1.489 births were recorded.
In 1S9U there 1.72(1 births, of which 8t
were males and 83! females: In 1894 the
birth record droped to 1.620, males num
bering 80S and females 814, and last year
there was again a decrease only 1.557
ilrths being reported divided between
the sexes In the proportion of 795 males
to 762 females. As the rules requir
ing acccurate returns of births, etc.,
were more stringently enforced last
year than In the previous years, it is
apparent that Scranton will do well
to encourage Immigration If It hopes to
make a good showing at the next cen
sus.
Births of the Year by Months.
The appended figures show in detail
the births by months: January, males
S4, females 71, total 135; February, males
57, females 64, total 121; March, males
is. females 65. total 124; April, males 49,
females 42, total 91; May, males ":i, fe
mules 73, total 146; June, males 59, fe
males 71, total 130; July, males 93, fe
males 60, total 153; August, males. 60.
females 65, total 125: September, males
52, females 47. total 99; October, males
70, females 61. total 131: November,
males 85, females 74, total 159; December,
males 74, females 69, total 143. Total,
males 795, females 762.
A gratifying fact deduced from the
mortality reports, and one which is
commendatory of our sanitation is that
while the city has been steadily grow
ing more densely populated the death
rate has been virtually at a standstill
and during the past year experienced a
comparative decrease as contrasted
with the Increase of 1894 over 1895. The
1X94 rate was 1,482, an increase of 182
over the preceding year and 1893 showed
an Increase of 37 over 1892.
Very Low Death Kate.
Last year the Increase over 1894 was
only 111, the total number of deaths
being 1,593. Thus while 1894 Bhowed an
increase of 182, last year had an In
crease of but 111. The average death
rate of less than 16 to 1.000 Is remark
ably low as compared with other cities
md this Is particularly so when it Is
considered that the deaths from acci
dent are large in a city of the character
of Scranton.
The deaths by months during Inst
year were as follows: January. 13H;
February, t22; March. 146; April. 125;
May, 111; June, 106; July 176; August,
137: September, 140; October, 131; No
vember, 1.19; December. 122: total, 1,593.
As will be noticed by the above figures
that June was the least fatal month
ar.d July the most fatal month.

WHOLESALE BLOCK FIRE.
Chemicals Extinguished a Blaxe on the
Third Hoor of No. 23.
An oil stove In Joseph Haser's apart
ments on the third floor of the building
at No. 23 Lackawanna avenue, set lire
to a lace curtain last night at 10 o'clock
but the prompt arrival of the Chemical
engine prevented any serious damage,
The window frame was burned and
aume of the furnishings of the room
damaged, but altogether the loss will
not amount to over $150. No water was
used, the fire being extinguished by
means of chemicals.
NO MORE GRANOLITHIC.
Cement Sidewalks Are Now Forbidden By
City Ordinance.
The ordinance prohibiting the laying

Resolutions which also received the
