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.

U. OF P. ATHLETES.
Give a Splendid Inhibition lathe Froth
lngham Theater.
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. Va.. says: "I had a fearful
attack of Sciatic Rheumatism, was laid
up almost two months; was fortunate
enough to get Mystic Cure for Rheu
matism. This cured me after doctor's
prescriptions had failed to have any
effect. I have also heard of fine results
from others who have used It." Sold
