The nearing oi tne remaining petitions was liuished and today and tomorrow will be spent by the Judees consulting: together In con sidering the applications. During the pust three days none or tne judges ex pressed uny comments which, would de note the action which will be taken in dealinK with the petitions; but where new houses have applied the represent ing attorney has been required to innke very clear to the court that tne appli cant Is a lit person and the place is a necessity. ' . " i . The list of licenses granted and tnose. If unv. reiosed. will be handed down Saturday. The forenoon yesterduy was taken up with heurlng the petitions from the Thirteenth ward. The appli cation of Kdward Mi-Andrew for a hotel at lf.07 Von Slorch avenue was the first one opposed. O'Brien & Kelley repre sented him and the remonstrants were represented by Attorneys V. W. Lath-' rope and Colonel V, I.. Hitchcock. The remonstrance was sisncd bv over -00 residents of the ward and set forth that the place is not a necessity, but that it is located in a residential pnrt of the ward, where there is no craving for liq uor. William Hmlth. John ttourtright, Thomas Kennedy and Anthony .Mc- (Sulgun testified to the necessity pf the i""r. . . ... . APPI-ICATIOX OF lilt.' BUQCKr Attorney f Comegys represented the petition of George 1.. Itiwk for a hotel at 015 Oreen Hiilge street.- Ml'. Com egys said that this house was built and planned for a Ural-clans hotel, and It Is one of the finest structures of its kind In Green Kldge. Mr. Hroek Is compet ent to run a hotel and has for eight yeurs been making applications for a license, but the court has been deaf to his appeal. Colonel Hitchcock respond ed that there is no more necessity for the place now than ut any time during the period the court hus seen lit to re fuse a license. The quarters of the Oreen Itldge Wheelmen's club Is ad joining hnick's place and the members, Colonel Hitchcock Bald, do not want a hoiel so close to them. In the opuosltlon to the petition of William Jordan for a hotel at 1247 North Washington avenue It was alleged that the pluce Is not a necessity und that Jurdun is not a fit man to be granted u license. John K. Harris testified that various times during the past year he saw beer wiigons stopped in front of Jordan's pluce und frequently he saw men going In and coming out on Hun day. His opinion from these facts was that there was drink sold there, al though 11 has not been licensed. 10. H. Sturges teslined that the Jor dans for the past ten years have kept a house which Is not famed for good reputation In respect to complying with the liquor laws. Mr. Sturges once pros ecuted the father of the present appli cant for keeping a tippling house and recently sent notice to the mother of the applicant to shut up shop or she would rcaret that the warning was not heeded If she persists In selling liquor without a license. Attorney Thomas F. Wells testified to there belnir no necessity for u license ut the place where Jordan Is located. John I. I'owell testllied that a kind ergarten school Is within but one block of the place. Testimony wns taken to prove that there is a necessity for Jor dan's place, and that he is well quull tled to conduct a hotel. PKTITION FOU A ItliSTAl' RANT. The petition of O. J. Nlcholls for a restaurant license at 13M0 Albright ave nue, was represented by Hon. John V. Kelley, who spoke of the necessity for It from the fact that there Is nt present not an eBtlng house in the Thirteenth ward. Colonel Hitchcock argued that the place Is not a necessity. There wus n question us to the fitness of Mr. Xlfholls for a. restaurant. A remonstrance was against the pe tition -of F. G. Harli'k for a wholesale license. The objection was tin tin- ground of no necessity. Attorney ,i. Klliot Ross represented the applicant and Mr. l.athrope the remonstrants. The npnllcatlon of James J. Kelley for a hotel license at 1.1H2 North Washing ton avenue, across from the county Jail, wus opposed for 111" renson, as alleged, that there Is no necessity H. C. Ful ler, of the Scranton Stove Works, was one of the witnesses against the pe tition, and he was opposed to it for the reason that it would attract his em ployes while they waited for the street car to come along after work. The application of Stephen Pendal for a hotel license on Rebecca street. Throop borough, was opposed. The reason assigned was thnt it Is not a necessity, for Throop Is already well supplied with establishments slocked with bottled hardware. The petition of Anthony Koth tor a restaurant license on l'ancoast avenue In the same bor ough was opposed for the reason that he was alleged to have sold liquor with out a license within the past year. At torney T. V. Powderly represented Roth and Attorney Chillies L. lluwley, the remonstrants.. TAYLOR BOROfGH CASK.

Glover, or that plave. The wounded man has suffered from hemorrhages, and his condition Is very ciltlcul, though the latest reports are to the effect that he may recover. The knife was plunged into Conboy s body and the assailant twisted It In or der to muke his Intlictlon as serious as It wus in his power to do. The account of the matter Is to the effect that Free man, who wus employed on the farm of li. W. Potter, In Moscow, from Indulg ing heavily In liquor, became Infuriated. He III si went to the stable at the Dixon hotel and attacked Dan Simpson, the hostler, with the same knife used on Conboy, but he was driven off with a pitchfork, und then he ran nut on the street und perpetrated his work on Con boy, who was walking along not dream ing of the danger. Freeman made good his escape. SEKMON BY FATHER DIXX. Delivered at l.enten lvotions In St. Peter's Cathedral.; Rev. M. H. Dunn, of "WllKes-Barr. formerly of this city, preached the Ber- nion of the Lenten devotions at St. Peter's cathedral last evening. The church wus filled notwithstanding the heavy snow storm. The reverend speaker was eloquent and his discourse was a most Instructive one. His text was from the Prophet Isalas, "If any one will come after me, let him take up his cross and deny himself and follow me." Christ has placed a cross on every one, said Father Dunn, the rich and poor, young and old, high and low, all must bear the cross which He speaks of. What Is the nature of this cross? The (dd must bear the weaknesses and debilities of old age and, perhaps, the disgrace of a child, or the cruel treat ment of sons or daughters, Man In middle life has to bear the struggles against the world, watching to avoid Its snares surrounding his footsteps: he hus to bear the treachery of false friends, of those who affect to befriend him and on the contrary are ready to drag htm to disgrace and ruin; The woman has to bear her crosses when she looks back nn the children whom she nourished and sees them led astray by the temptations of the devil ami the allurements of false advisers. The cross of the young man comes to him, when, with bright prospects, he enters upon a course, and of a sudden something occurs which blasts all his hopes. This may come to him from lurking enemies who seek his downfall, or it may be in his attempt after popu larity or in business pursuits. The young woman bears her cross when she is bowed down beneath some misfor tune. CROSSES KKFERRED TO. These are the crosses that Jesus has reference to. We behold Him nn the pathway through life from the cradle to the grave. He was no sooner born into the world than the edict of Herod went forth. Next He was persecuted by the Jews and the miracles He performed were attributed to the power of Reelze bub. He was spurned and rejected by the people He came to save and was finally crucified on Calvary. This is an example for us to follow. We are to bear our cross as He did with patience and resignation. We must follow ul'ter lllm, each one in his own condition, each one in his own stale. The young must be obedient to their parents. Christ nt the age of 12 showed an example of obeying His par ents. What about the young men and young maidens who discard parental control' and follow In their evil ways, knowing If they persevere that the course will lead to their destruction? How many a young man who had good prospects In life, diobeyed his parents and accomplished his ruin here and his doom hereuftcr? WK FORGET THE SOI'L. The young girl who will give way to her fancies and follow her own Inclina tions, pursuing the path knowing that the enil will lead her to perdition, has need to rellect and take up her cross. In the midst of our business affairs of life we Hre apt to forget the eternal In terests of the soul. We are Justitled in laboring for the body to keep it In proper health, and we do this to accom plish a temporal end. Why not lay uslde some of our time In putting on garments for the soul, which Is eternal ami lives forever? The church tells us how to walk the way of Christ; the Savior tells us that Ills cross Is not heavy, that it Is sweet nnd light. The saints and the holy men and women who devote their lives to the church testily that the yoke is not heavy, for their mind is contented. Vve benefit our souls by a little trouble, by a little penitential act, and amidst all our sor rows it ud tribulations to bear them with lldellty and devotion. We must take what comes and with the Mavlor, dying on tin- cross, repeat, "Not My will, O Lord, but Thine be done." PRACTICAL l7)Vi:RS iin.sr. Mr. and Mrs. Knibour Will Spend 'I lie I r Honeymoon liehind the Footlights. Those who go to the Frothlngham to this afternoon's matinee and witness the "Inside Track" played by the Waite Comedy company, will llnd in the run of the play that Hilly Harbour, leading man, and Miss Mary Howard, known on the stage as Mamie Harvey who as sumes a juvenile purl, will muke love lo each other and will get married be fore the curtain is rung down. On the stage of real life they played similar parts yesterday afternoon. They went to the ofllce of Clerk of the Courts John H. Thomas before noon and pro cured a marriage license.

The ceremony was witnessed by Dave H. Woods, Charlea McCoy and Joseph Pen dleton, members of the company. The event was not a surprise.

Mr. and Mrs. Harbour joined the com pany together at Chicago and have known each other for several years. The groom Is a brother of Edwin Bar bour, the playwright.

William li. Day is Elected Preslnent of Olyphant Borough. On the first Monday In March when the present borough council of Olyphant met to organize, there was an even division of the twelve borough fathers. There was a deadlock on the election of president, the candidates for the hon or being William H. Davis, who pre sided last year, and Thomas Curran. Davis was supported by Messrs. Kogan, Fudden, Patten, Iiempsey, and Flynn; those who favored Curran's candidacy were O'llnlleran, ,iinon, Tlnsley, Keegan, and Gallagher. When the time came to call the meet ing to order lust night three of Curran's endorsers; namely Tinsley, Keegan und Gallagher were not present. The law allows a quorum to organize und as there were nine members present the Davis men at once proceeded and elect ed him iiresldent by a vote of six to three. Just as the thing was over the other coumilmen arrived. All they did was to bring the other three of their side out with them and the meeting was left with only six. The six remaining ones proceeded with the rest of the organization and chose W. J. Schubmehl, secretary; Jas. McLoughlin, treasurer, and Lawrence Howard, street commissioner. COMING ATTRACTION'S. After witnessing "Alabama" at Ma- rauley's theater, Louisville, Henry Wat- terson wrote: "The wooing of Hiawa tha Is no) more lovely and contains no more true poetry than does the wooing of Mrs. Page by Captain Davenport In Augustus Thomas' sweet-toned ro mance of the South, 'Alabama' nor Is the biblical story of the prodigal son more affecting in Its simplicity, more true In its delineations of the strength of 'the ties that bind' .than Is the return of Colonel Preston's long estranged son to his father, broken with grief and to his old Southern home." The play will be seen at the Academy of Music next Haturday evening, when It will be pre sented by Clement Balubiidge's famous New York company. II II II Sydney Rosenfeld's comedy, "The Two Escutcheons," which wus the dra matic success of the year at Daly's theater. New York, will be presented at the Frothlngham on Wednesday and Thursday evenings, March 18 and 18. Its story concerns the daughter of a Chicago millionaire pork packer, who murries the son of an Aristocratic Ger man nobleman. When the two fathers meet the clush of interests begins. Huron von Wettlngen objects to Thomas Foster's pork, and Foster Just as strin gently takes exception to the Union's aristocratic frigidity. Between them the haplness of the young people seems destined tq be wrecked, but common sense Dually prevails ami peace is re stored. Incidentally to the mnln idea, is a graceful little romance, between a Chicago widow and a good, hearty but Impecunious young German Captain. The cast which will present this bright comedy Is the same which contributed to its success in New York. II II II "The White Crook" was last season a elenn, bright nnd excellent show, and still more is promised by the manage ment this senson. It excels in Its mu sical numbers and comedy: but the scenic api-oliitments and w ardrobe have ulways been very nupeiior, und much better than more pretentious organiza tions. The costuming lias ulso been less lluble to nd verse criticism thiiu Very many of the usual comic, operas. At Duvls' the rest of thu week, opening this afternoon.
