THE ECU ANTON TBIBUNE S ATI) UDA X MOiumra. MAttcnri , NeuJs WEST SIDE EVENTS. Opposition Has Developed to the Pro ae4LoMtloaof theHnapitalla the Freeman Uomestead. Opposition In lta strongest form naa arisen in the path of the West Side hos pital, which was to have been penel In the Freeman mansion on boutn Main avenue, corner Washburn street. Residents of the locullty are out with a petition which prays that the law in terpose and compel the hospital asso ciation to abandon the Freeman site and look elsewhere for a place to es tablish the hospital. The reason given is thut the Intended location is too cen tral and if the hospital were establish ed it would be detrimental to the gen eral Interests of the people and proper ty owners who live or own property near the Freeman house. Twelve names were signed to the petition last n,&ht- ... Complaints are being made against the owner of the Freeman property. (Several months ago he sold a portion of his lot In the rear of the homeetead to the Washburn Ntreet Presbyterian church to be used as a site fur a par gun age. According to the plans of the hospital managers it Is said that the hospital morgue will be built within a very few feet of the minister's house, which waa recently moved on the new site. This, it Is claimed. Is decidedly obnoxious. The main point advanced Is that the location Is too much in the heart of the town. The opposition think that It will be anything but a pleasant sight to see the Invalid and In jured hospital candidates lounging about In the open air when the near by residents are enjoying themselves on their house porches in the summer evenings. The hurrying of ambu lances, the groans of the Injured, will, according to the opposition, be, very disagreeable. VfllX, NOT BR CHANGED. V' ' The West Ride firemen wilt have to content themselves with the Arc gong us It Is now stutioned at the Oxford col liery. Several months ago a resolution was passed in councils directing that the fire gong be removed from the Ox ford brenker to the Washburn street ulr shaft. The reason advanced wns that the majority of the West Hide fire men live west of Main avenue and it Is very difficult to hear the alarm. No provision was made for the transfer and the resolution was unable to stand from debility. The city owns the Rong at the Oxford breaker but the Delaware, Lackawanna and Western company owns the air shaft gong and the cor poration litis refused to allow its use as it fire alarm. The reason given Is thut the tooting of the lire alarm would cause confusion In mine signal at the air shaft. The gong will remain where It is. NEWS NOTES AND PERSONALS.

College men who were at the Froth lngham last evening recognized the fact that it was Pennsylvania's night. The red and blue colors everywhere through the theater predominated. There were red and blue costumes worn by the ath letes, and the decorations on the stage and about the boxes were also of the university colors. There were also pres ent everywhere thebannersand stream ers of the Toung Men's Christian asso ciation contesting organizations labeled "Join the Blues" and "Join the Reds." Society was well represented In the audience and thereby showed Its appre ciation of the college boys and the Scranton Bicycle club for whose bene fit the performance was given. Nicely Illustrated prorgammes containing pic tures of the base ball, foot ball and ath letic teams of the university were dis tributed. The gymnastic team consist ed of twenty-one men, and their work Included nearly every branch of Indoor athletics. Three Scranton boys were among them, two of them, J. Mylcs Gib bons anil Charles Gelbert as perform ers, and Horace Gibbons, who officiated as referee In the boxing and wrestling bouts. A horizontal bar exhibition by the team was the first number on the pro gramme. In the midst of It and while Rodman Butler was executing the kip one of the rods fastened to the stage suddenly became relaxed, and Butler's best acrobatic cfTorts were required to land him on his feet. It was fixed and later while another of the team was at tempting the slant swing the plates in the floor again gave way and the per former's knowledge of lofty tumbling once more served him jvell. J. Myles Gibbons appeared In an ex hibition of club swinging and juggling. His juggling act was exceptionally good, and later on he handled the base balls in good style. His forte, how ever, was shown to be trick bicycle rid ing. He performed the greater num ber of the feats of the professional, probably not with as much dash and brilliancy, but with equally as much confidence. Charles Gelbert boxed two rounds with E. M. Raucli just to show the un initiated some of the maneuvers of the manly art of self-defense. The other events in the pymnnstic line were wrestling .parallel bars, fenc ing, tumbling, flying rings, pyramids and Roman ladder. A special feature of the show wns the high jumping by Norman T. Leslie. He began jumping with the bar at five feet and raised It Inch by Inch until a height of six feet wns attained. At ev ery trial he cleared the Btick nicely, not making a single miss In about twelve Jumps. He appeared to be In excellent form last night, and Judging from the ease with which he got over the six foot mark the Indoor record might have been beaten had he continued to try further. The Tout hill family of seven Inter spersed the athletic numbers with some good guitar and mandolin music. A youth clad In flaming red and with the words "Join the Reds" emblazoned across his back circulated among the audience and succeeded In well adver tising the membership contest of the Yonng Men's Christian association. At the Bicycle flub house after the show the Pennsylvania collrge men were the guests of the club. Sciatic Hbcumatlsm Cured. L. Wagner, Wholesale Druggist. Richmond.
