There has been an effort to prevent the Traction company from putting uiore poles along Main street and Salem avenu.'. but tlrspite this the work has betn done and thu cmpany Is enjoy ing a quiet latiKh all by Itself while the property owners Sturm In vain. "fwas In the dead of night, when all peoplo were supposed to be sleeping soundly, that the dark deed was done. About 1.30 o'clock yesterday morning a ear containing Foreman Gordon and several laborers moved quietly up the street. It stopped at the company's of fice anil the men got out and in a few minutes were at work digging the holes necessary to put the poles In. No noise was made, so when the people awoke this morning they were chagrined to llnd the poles in position, put in under their very noses. The poles were necessary to support the other poles along the street on which Is strung the big cable. THE BUI DUE GONE. Workmen Remove the Sixth Avenue Struct nr. Ycsterdnv. The old Sixth avenue bridge was re moved yesterday and the neighborhood looks very queer. The work of tearing out the old structure was done by about a doxen laborers in charge of W. I Beers, of Clark & company. New York, and at five o'clock nothing re mained of the bridge. By tonight all the old timber and material used In the old structure will be removed and work will be commenced at once on the new bridge. Much of the new material Is on the ground and Is viewed by many curious people. But little can be learned of the Imposing appearance the new bridge will present from the ma lerlal. The work of tearing down the Eighth avenue bridge will be commenced very soon. In fact as soon as a way can be arranged for the continuing of traffic on the street during the erection of the bridge. M'DONALD RESIGNS. And Thus Endeth the Troubles of the Sperl Heater Company. A meeting of the stockholders of the Sperl Heate company was held yes terday morning and important business was transacted. Among other things was the acceptance of Manager McDon ald's resignation and the purchase of his stock In the company. The resignation of McDonald will end the trouble be tween the stockholders ana the man agement, which has been going on for the last six months. This trouble caused the Injunction suit, but which was afterward withdrawn, when Mc Donald resigned. Mr. Nolan, of Scran- ton, who stood by Mr. McDonald, also sold out his shares in the company. The company s work will now be transferred to the Van Bergan & Co. shops, and the building formerly occu pied by 'the Sperl company rented to the Pendleton Bobbin company. KENA COOK DISAPPEARS. The Young Woman Who Recently Gained Motoric t Leaves the Cltv. For some time Kena Cook, who caused so much talk on account of the manner In which she and Joseph Stan ton acted and their subsequent running away, has lived with the family of Ezra Reeves on Laurel street. The trhi seemed to be very penitent and wanted to reform. On Monday she left the house on some pretext and went to the Belmont school, where she has a step-sister, and told her she was going to leave and wanted to say good by before she went. She refused to tell any of her plans and then left the school. Since then she has not been seen and although Mr. Reeves has been searching for her, no trace can be found. It is thought she has left the city. CAVE.IN ON THE WEST SIDE. Property Damaged by the Sinking of the Earth.

At a little distance from this cave-In Is another much, larger one, a plot about thirty feet in diameter, having gone down twenty-five feet The Old Homestead. It Is not at all wonderful that "The Old Homestead" retains Its hold upon the American public. With every re curring year this genuine American play returns and every year it is cor dially greeted and as heartily enjoyed as ever. One cannot help loving home ly old Joshua Whltcoinb, the big heart ed New England farmer; he is so real. so human. Every year the people hock to see "Tne Old Homestead," to keep themselves In the brisk New Eng land air that pervades the play and re fresh themselves in the wholesome at mosphere Denman Thompson has so ably presented. ' To Improve the Park. The trustees of Alumni park have de cided to moke many Improvements at the park this summer. Among other tnings a grand stand capable of hold ing three hundred and flftv nersona will be nut up and a quarter-mile bicycle track built. This will add much to the popularity of the place.

A large delegation from the Bchool wns present at the convention, and when it was apparent that Professor Hower was elected their enthusiasm could be restrained no longer and cheer upon cheer rent the room and a call made for a speech, which was given in a few well chosen words. Then the boys gave tholr war-whoop and left to re lieve their feeling In prolonged howls upon the streets. Professor Hower has been In Honesdale five years and has slowly made a name for himself that is now an enviable one. He is a well educated, bright young man and will ably execute the duties of his oftlce. Professor Kennedy, the retiring sup erintendent, has held the ofllce for four years, and fulfilled Its arduous duties In a manner that can be criticised by none. He retires with an excellent rec ord and best wishes of all. Captain O. L. Rowland yesterday ten dered his resignation as captain of Company E. When Interviewed by The Tribune reporter he said his only rea son for resigning was that he wculd be absent from home all summer at a summer resort and would be unable to give the company his attention and at tend camp, he therefore felt that he must relinquish his command.

Anderson, wife and children, of Scranton, visited friends here yester day.

MONTROSE, Patrick McCune, a prisoner at the county jail, died Sunday last. Con sumption was the caupe. McCune was sentenced last January to nine months' Imprisonment, having embezzled funds raised among the miners of Forest City for aid of a needy family. It Is not known whether McCune was the pris oners' right name, but judging from hi actions during the last few days of his life it Is supposed that it is not, he absolutely refused to divulge the names or residence of any of his relatives or friends and In consequence he was burled in the Potters'-, field. He was well educated and apparently had seen better days, If not wealth and affluence. Charles E. Moxley was elected sup erintendent of education of Susquehan na county yesterday, as Hon. Bardwell Slote said, "by a large majority." The convention was called to .order at 1.30 by the retiring superintendent, Profes sor U. B. Glllett. of New Mllford. T. J. Davles. of Montrose, was unanimous ly elected chairman, and Dr. E. M. Harrison, of Auburn secretary. The chair appointed L. D. Btnson. Susque hanna, and H. W, French. Lanesboro, as tellers; C. C. Pratt, of New Milford placed in nomination the name of C. E. Moxley and In so doing paid him a tribute of which he may forever be proud. The name of W. L. Rogers, of Lanesboro, was also presented, but before any action was ttken Professor Rogers withdrew, leaving the field alone to Professor Moxley. Mr. Pratt therefore, moved that the secretary be Instructed to cast one ballot for Pro fessor Moxley, but Mr. Beardsley, of Little Meadows, arose to a point of order, claiming the law specifically stat ed that the superintendent must be elected viva voce. Professor Moxley was chosen in that manner. Professor Moxley Is a resident of Hallstead. He Is a clean, healthy and ambitious young man. To say that he will make a good and efficient olllcer Is but anticipation and the county is to be. congratulated upon the selection of one who will sub tain the high educational standard of which Susquehanna county is so justly proud. Charles H. Alney, one of the Renub llcan candidates for the ofllce of county auditor, is an exceptionally strong can dldate. Mr. Alney has never before sought honor or asked for recognition at the hands of his party. He Is loyal Republican, well versed in the intricacies of the law. and Is a brother of W. D. B. Alney, district attorney. Jim Hletambo, charged with Incen dtarlsm at Hophottom, was brought to Montrose and committed to the county jail in default of $500 ball. Hletambo is a Hungarian, and is apparently troubled with wheels In his head. He seemed .to relish the Idea of being im prisoned. The Tribune correspondent asked mm his motive in burning sir Whiting's storehouse, but he only laughed with ghoulish glee ar.d slanned the constable on the back murmuring some pontic uoggrei. Thomas Kllrow, of Great . Bond smiled on his Montrose friends today. Henry BIrchard, of Susquehanna, at ways Is to be found at Montrose on red letter days. He was here for the con ventlon.
