James Franey, of Mooslc, was arrested
at an early hour yesterday morning by
Lieutenant Davis on suspicion of being a
crook. He was selling jewelry In the sa
loons at Incredulously low prices and
when the police heard of It they thought it
wise to take him up for an examination.
He proved to be nothing more or less
than a peddler with a stork of Jewell y
that would be dear at any price. Franey
was discharged in police court yester.
day morning.
A young man on Saturday afternoon

clerk in the postofflce. and informed Mrs.

waa extremely polite. Mrs. Jenkins sus
pected him and responded that if her
husband wanted his best suit to come
after it himself. The scheme was foiled
and the sneak departed. A short dis
tance away he joined a pal. This dodge
has been worked successfully In several
places of late.

BROADBKXT HAS RESIGNED.
Severed Uis Connection with the Dickson
Manufacturing Company' Saturday,
After Thirty-Six Years of Faithful
Service. . '
Sidney Broadient on Saturday sev
ered his connection wllh the Dickson
Manufacturing company, of which he
has been a valued employe for over
thirty-six years. During; the lost four
teen years of that time he hus been
Kvnerul superintendent of the works of
the company. Including the mammoth
shops on Penn avenue, the Cliff works
and the shops in Wllkes-Barre. Mr,
Uroadbent handed In hit resignation
last week to the new president, Mr.
Zehnder. and it went Into effect Satur
day. Ills successor. It Is stated, has
not yet been decided upon.
Mr. Hroadbent came to this city on
April 13. IRSi. from Paterson, X. J., and
began work as a Journeyman machinist
in the shops of the Delaware. Lacka
wanna and Western company, which,
at that time, owned but thirteen loco
motives. The southern division of the road was'
then In course of construction. Mr.
llioadlicnt hud a natural genius for me
chnnics. and he was soon promoted to
the itosltlon of foreman, which he re
signed two years Inter to associate him
self with William and Watts Cooke, H.
U Alanine nnd James Ftitt. They
started the Cliff works, where It Is lu-,
cnted today, anil built the first locomo
tive ever erected In Scranton.
Mr. Hroudbent remained in that firm
until November. 1S.VJ, when he entered
the employ of the Dickson company, of
which the late Thomas Dickson Was the
IhibIii"ss hend. J-uter the firm lost its
identity in the Dickson Manufacturing;
company. Mr. Hroadbent was succes
sively foreman and assistant superin
tendent and fourteen years ago he was
elevated to the responsible position of
general superintendent. Much of the
wonderful development of the company
was due to the efforts of Mr. Hroadbent.
He 1h of an Inventive turn of mind,
and holds a number of patents on the
creations of his brain, many of which
pay him handsome royalties. Kntlre
good feeling exists between Mr. Hroad
bent und the new management of the
company. He retires to enjoy a well
earned rest, having acquired a compe
tency which renders it unnecessary for
him to longer undergo the strain In
separable from the superlntendeney of
such an extensive manufacturing com
pany. Sl'NDAY SURPRISE PARTY.
Rev. Father P.J. MeManns and Congre
gation Mad Happy by a l ew Accressl v
1'arishloners.
A large and sweet toned bell will soon
send forth Its peals from the steeple of
St. Paul's church. Green Ridge.
The pastor. Rev. P. J. McManus, has
by dint of the hardest struggling, suc
ceeded In building a large and well ap
pointed church and school, and having
everything completed, expressed the
wish on one occasion or another that
In the not very distant future the con
gregation would see Its way clear to
place a bell in the steeple. Two or
three of his parishioners, among them
Henry Loft us. concluded that their
Sogarth Aroon's dream of a complete
church building would be realised soon
er than he expected, and resolved them
selves Into a committee to carry the
thing Into effect.
After talking the matter over they
decided not only to surprise the pastor,
but the congregation as well, and In or
der to do this they went among some
of Father McManus many friends out
side his congregation and secured with
out much difficulty sutTlcteiit money to
buy as fine a bell as they could desire.
Mrs. Conrad Sehroeder waa the prime
mover In the surprise party and started
the subscription with $100. She was
the only woman In the congregation
who was In on the secret, and she
proved the fallacy of the. old saw that
a woman cannot keep a secret, for when
the pastor and congregation were called
together yesterday afternoon for the
presentation, no one but those originally
cognizant of the plant were aware of
what the object of the meeting was.
Rev. J. T. Dunn, the assistant pastor,
waa the first taken Into the secret. The
whole affair was explained to him
and in behalf of the surprise he
made the presentation to the pastor
and the congregation. Father McMan
us responded most feelingly and said
he could scarcely believe his eyes when
he gaxed smilingly on the paid-up order
for a bell, which was placed In his
hands. Mr. Loftus wee vailed upon to
tell how the thing all happened with
out anyone In the congregation learning
of what was going on, and several oth
ers made felitous speeches. It was
certainly a happy day for Father Mc
Manus and his little congregation.
The carpenter work necessary to re
ceive the bell will be commenced to
morrow, nnd it Is expected that, tht
hell will be rung for the first time next
Sunday.
'JI1IRD SACRED CONCERT.
Good Programme Rendered at Collate
Hall Last Evening.
The third sacred concert of the sea
son under the auspices of W. P. Schil
ling, musical director of the cathedral
choir, was given last evening at Col
lege hall.
Its popularity was attested by the
very large audience In attendance not
withstanding the stormy weather. Bau
er's orchestra of eight pieces and a
piano accompanist furnished the instru
mental music, which was entirely of an
orchestral nature. There were no In
strumental solos rendered, but several
excellent vocal solos were on the pro
gramme. "The Holy City," a soprano solo, was
ung by Florence M. Schilling In good
voice and thoughtful Interpretation.
She was obliged to repeat it for an en
core. Will H. Kmrlcli. In a very pleas
ing tenor voice, sang "Where Is Heav
en." Mr. Emrlch also was obliged to
respond to a very warm encore and he
did so with satisfaction.
A ladies' chorus, sung by the ladies
oi the cathedral choir, was one of the
early numbers on the programme and
was well received. It would not have
lengthened the entertainment any too
much if they were given another place
on the programme. These numbers, to
gether with several marches, overtures,
and a melodle, for cornet and trombone,
by Bauer's orchestra, made an evening
of sacred music that was much appre
ciated. Join the Crowd.

Tonight is the night when the strain,
and nervous tension, to which. It might
be said, the whole of the younger popu
lation of the city has been put, will be
relieved in the glare of the footlights
and amid the applause which Is bound
to come from ad large an audience as
ever gathered lu the Krothtngham
, theater. When the full rehonrwil of
the older dancers ended Saturday
there was no lnubt of the aucces of the
kirmess, and aside from whatever suc
cess may come to the dancers, the
managers of the great event are san
guine of a llnuncial result which' will
exceed, even, the ktrmcss of last year
when so many thousands of dollars
were netted for the Lackawanna hos
pital. All day Saturday there came to th
theater box office a steady stream of
ticket buyer and when night came It
was found that an average of one
thousand seats had been engaged for
each of the first three nights and Wed
nesday's matinee. As the capacity of
the theater is ubout sixteen hundred it
may be realized how many seats re
main unsold up to Wednesday night in
clusive. On Wednesday morning

night, and on Thursday morning checks
will be given out for Friday night, and
so on. A few boxes and loges may yet

Liplonntion of Managers.
Owing to certain statements which
have been made regarding the sale of
seats on Saturday morning for the
Fete Champetre, the management
wlHhes to explain that a slight error
occurred In but two Instances, involv
ing a matter of only a very few seats,
and not of 200 as has been rumored.
The mistake arose through a misun
derstanding In the box office and not a
seat was thus secured for one of the
manager of the Home. While the
error Is deeply regretted, the manage
ment would assure the public that care
ha been taken to prevent anythnlg of
the kind In the fin'tre. Checks will be
given out Wednesday morning for
Thursday night and on each succeeding
morning for the follov.ing night. Thus
all confusion will lie avoided and pa
trons will have better opportunity for
securing seat.
Many good seats yet remain for the
first four performances. Single tickets
may be had for SI to the loges. those
In the rear for 75 cents. The first two
rows in the balcony are 7" cents, the
others 50 cents, the gallery 25 cents.

AN INJUNCTION PRAYED FOR.
To Restrain Corbondole Traction Com
pany from Hauling Coal Cars.
.Attorney R. D. Stuart, city solicitor
of CarbondtUe, on Saturday began
equity proceedings against the CnrlHin
dale Traction company, at the instance
of the city of Carbondale. The bill is
to restrain the company from using the
tracks for the pin pose of hauling cars
of coal through the streets.
An ordinance approved March 8. 1SA2, '
gives the company the light to con
struct and operate a passenger street
railway. But the company Is using the
railroad to haul all the coal necessary
In producing the power required to
operate the road. The cars used are
ordinary coal cars with a capacity of
abmit eight tons each.
Ills alleged that (muling coal through
the streets Is not only a violation of
the conditions of the franchise, lint it
Is a source of danger to the public and
of Injury to the city. The danger comes
from a possibility that accidents may
occur by reason of running heavily
loaded coal cars down heavy grades
and across the bridges, which have not
been constructed for such heavy traf
fic. The Injunction will be argued at
next equity court.
RUSH CITY A GOOD FARCE.
Was Presented at the Aeadsmy of Musle
Saturday Night-
"Rush City," a farce-comedy concoct
ed by Comedian Gus Heege, was given
Its llrst Scranton production at the
Academy of Music Saturday night by
one of Davis ft Keogh's excellent com
panies. It scored a distinct success, not so
much on account of the excellence of
the farce as of the cleverness of the
company, which Is headed by the well
known George Marlon, nilmlc and all
round good entertainer. Associated
with him were E. J. Hefferman. Joe
Coyne, Harry Delta. M. 'J. Gallagher.
M. L. Heckert. Frank O'Brien, (Hive
White, Mabel Craig and Helen Heltner.
This aggregation of merry-makers
kept the fun going fast and furious
from the beginning to the end of the
farce. One of the sensational features
'introduced was a cyclone, which par
tially destroyed the city of Kush and
carried the remnant of It to Cactusvllle,
some distance away, where the action
of the third act of the farce takes place.

BAILEY ASJJEhlOCRAT
How He fought Randolph Crlppcn
Three Years Ago.
EXHIBITION 01 INGRATITUDE
Mr. Crlppen Very Frankly Tells Ills
Democratic Ftiende Why !! lias No
I'se for Their Present Muni
cipal Standard-Rearer.
One of the arguments used among
Democrats, by the supporters of James
G. Ralley, the Democratic candidate
for mayor, is that he has always been
a straight party man. and that there
fore lie is entitled to the undivided sup
port of his party. This pl'a Is being
made esneclnlly with a view to Influ
encing Democrats who do not know
Ralley, because of his recent residence
In the cltv, not to vote for Colonel
Ripple, whom they do know because of
his life-long prominence In the city and
also because of his invariable- readiness
to extend the hand of friendship. It
therefore becomes legltlmnte to Inquire
if Bailey's record as a Democrat is as
undeviattng as It Is represented to be.
Probably no Democrat Is better au
thority on such a subject than Ran
dolph Crlppcn, the Democratic candi-
idate for mayor of Scranton three years
ago. Testimony from him will un
doubtedly be of Interest to his thou
j sands of personal friends and former
J supporters throughout the city.
Mr. Crlppen was found Saturday at
his present home In Datton by a Tri
bune reporter. When questioned re
garding his candidacy for mayor of
Scranton three years ago he said:
"I was the unanimous choice of the
convention and for this reason. If for
no other, expected unanimous support
by Democratic leaders during the cam
paign. I certainly was warranted In
believing that any who did not approve
of me would not work against nie. It
seems, however. I was to find out that
men who had vrofessed to be Demo
cratsprominent men In their party
were against ine. Among these was
James G. Bailey, the present Demo
cratic candidate for mayor of Scran
ton. Bailey's Grose Ingratitude.
"When this was made known to me
It was a great surprise, as three years
earlier, when he was a candidate for
prothonotnry, I traveled over the whole
county In the Interest of the Democratic
ticket. On these trips Mr. Halley
was never along, but he was not once
forgotten. As much was done for him
as for the others. John P. Kelly. John
J. Fahey and other Democratic leaders
or candidates were with me on those
trips, and know the truth of my state
ment thut when I was alone or with
others, as much was done for James
G. Halley as for any other candidate.
"This man's ( Bailey's) Ingratitude was
shown three years later, when he did
his utmost to encompass my defeat.
He did not always work openly but
busted hhtiHelf against me in a quiet
and determined manner.
"Mr. Bailey probably had very sub
stantial reasons for such a course, but
this point I do not care to discuss fur
ther at this time; I may have some
thing more explicit to say If occasion
demands It."
An Otyeet Lesson for Democrats.
Mr. Crlppen spoke as follows of an
other candidate on the present Demo
cratic ticket who knew of Bailey's
treachery at the time. Mr. Crlppen
stipulated that for the present this
third party's name be withheld, and for
this reason he will be designated as
"Mr. X-". Mr. Crlppen said:
"One day during my campaign for
mayor I was waiting for Mr. X In his
office. When he entered and found me
there he became greatly excited and
exclaimed:
" 'Bailey and Andy Bedford are
working against you on the street.
What does It all mean?' "
"I told him I did not know why
Bailey was working against me. Mr.
X then suggested that I go to Bailey
and ascertain what the trouble was
and. If possible. Induce him to stop his
efforts to defeat me. I replied that if
Halley was knifing me In that manner
after the hard work I had done in try
ing to elect him prothimotary three
years before, I would not solicit his
support. I think I indicated that one
who displayed such a poor return for
what had been done for him could not
be depended upon, and I preferred to
let him alone.
"Before X found me In his office
that day he said ho had seen and
talked with Bailey and had reproved
him (Bailey) for working against the
Democratic ticket. '
"X told me that Bailey said: 'Oh,
that's all right we are for you, X, but
we are dead against the head of the
ticket.' "
"Now." continued Mr. Crlppen to the
reporter, 'that's the kind of on Indi
vidual the Democrats of Scranton have
nominated for mayor. I wonder what
would be thought of some leading
Democrat who would go quietly about
knifing Bailey as Pulley knircd me?
I'm a Democrat, but what I have said
la the truth nnd Is what I am willing
to say openly at any time, as It seems to
me proper that the Democrats of Scran
