P&wder,
CAPTURED HIM IN BED.
Alderman Was Determined to
Get
Him and Used Strategy.
If there Is one thin that Alderman
Millar dislikes more than another, it Is
to have a eulprit take advantage of his
goodness. He Bhowed this in the Bishop
ease, and again yesterday in a some
what similar instance.
On the night of May 1 Michael Kuduy
was arrested Dy JJ. unueisnon, in.
Lackawanna avenue tailor, for the theft
of $10. The accused was to all appear
ances very sorry for his crime ana
begged not to be sent to Jail. The al
derman, out of consideration of Bud
dy's youth and previous good charac
ter, granted his request and upon nis
promise to bring around t. bondsman in
the morning, was released on his own
recognizance.
He, however, was ungrateful enougn
to skip out and Mr. Kndleshon came
around to Inquire If the transcript had
been sent In. the alderman was eom
rtclled to admit that no defendant would
be forthcoming. He hail muue several
efforts to recapture Kuddy, but each
time the ofllcers went after him they
returned with the story that he was not
In town.
Thursday the alderman determined
to make a final effort to capture him
and directed Special Officer Byers to go
to his home at daybreak. Tins was
done, and, as was expected, the fugitive
was found in bed. This time he went
to Jail under $r00 ball. Friends ap
peared later In the day and furnished
the bail.

MAYOR VIEWS THE PARKS.
Commissioners Hippie and Moore
Exhibit Their Labors and Needs
Colonel E. H. Kipple and T. J. Moore
of the board of park commissioners,
yesterday escorted Mayor and Mrs. Bal
ley through the three city parks, W rood
lawn, Nay Aug and Council, occupying
the entire afternoon with the trip.
The mayor spoke In the highest terms
of commendation of the work accom
plished by the commissioners with the
scarcity of funds which they had at
their disposal and promised to urge
upon councils the necessity of being
more liberal In dealing with the public
parks department of the city govern
ment. Although the appropriations so far
made have been barely large enough to
keep the parks free from rubbish, the
commissioners by careful management
have succeeded In making many Im
provements In the awy of beautifying
the parks and adding such little com
forts as benches, swings and the like.
Much disappointment Is generally ex
pressed through the failure of the swim
ming pond scheme, but It Is sincerely
hoped that thlB much craved boon will
materialize next spring.
MIGHT HAYE BEEN SERIOUS.
Men Have Gone to Jail for Just Such
Little Prunks.
Peter Hanness, of Qouldsboro, came
up to town yesterday and bought a
fancy trout pole. On his way to the
train he stopped in at several taverns,
and in one of them lost the pole.
He accused a young man named John
Madlgan of taking It and had him
arrested on a warrant from Alderman
Millar. 'When arraigned before the
Alderman Madlgan explained that he
whole thing was a huge Joke and
agreed to see that Hanness got his pole
back.
Tho alderman gave him the benefit of
the doubt and dismissed the case upon
tne poie being restored.
WORK OF THE GRAND JURY.
They Will Not Finish Their Work
Until Next Week.
A report will tie made by the grand
Jury in all probability today, but it
Is not certain, because there Is a large
number ot cases yet -remaining to be
disposed of, and the Jury may not finish
until next week.
At adjournment yesterday 240 eases
had been disposed of, which Is a rec
ord that no Jury in the past has sur
passed tor a similar period of time.
District Attorney John R. Jones has
educated prosecutors to be on hand
punctually with their witnesses, and
Dusiness is t nereny facilitated.
During the grand Jury week th

TROUBLES 55F SINGLE.
Washington Avenue Property Owners
Want the Barber Asphalt Company
to Repair That Thoroughfare.
Property owners on North Washing
ton avenue between Gibson street and
Electric avenue will present a petition
to councils next Thursday night asking
that action be taken to remind the Bar
ber Asphalt company of the contract
made with the city when that portion
of the avenue was paved, agreeing to
keep the pavement In repair for five
years.
County Commissioners 8. W. Roberts,
Giles Roberts and John Demuth were
asked yesterday afternoon to sign the
petition, but they refused for the reason
that the county made a special contract
for paving In front of the Jail.
The property owners allege In their
petition that the asphalt company has
not expended one cent toward keeping
the street repaired, and that it is in
urgent need of attention. If improve
ments are not made soon the five years
will have expired In which the com
pany is bound by the contract. If that
hapiens the city will be put to great
expense to do the work.
IT CAUSED LOTS OF GOSSIP.
Republican (Selectmen's Action Starts
Rumors in City Hall.
There were rumors yesterday that
the Republican selectmen Intended to
call a special meeting Tuesday night
for the consideration of general busi
ness that they can not be accused of
obstructing city business. There was
also some talk of the Democrats secur
ing a mandamus to compel the attend
ance of the Republicans at the Joint
convention, but no one regarded this
talk as serious.
The events of the night before In
councils were the only subject of con
versation about city hall yesterday
Mr. Manley Is about the only Democrat
who Is wearing anything approaching
a smile. He takes his troubles phllo
sophlcally and avers that his nine
friends from the Twelfth will yet be on
the police force.
"say," said he to a Tribune reporter
yesterday, put in an ad. tomorrow
something like thw: 'Wanted A Re.
publican select councilman. Twenty
police positions for the right man. Ap
ply to J. G. B., City Hall.' That ought
to fetch one," said the statesman from
the Twelfth.
The other Democrats are very glum
and say tne mayor should not be inter
fered with in his "efforts to give the
city better government."
GROVER WAS A PARTNER.
The Criminal Proceedings Resolve
Themselves Into a Civil Suit.
Obtaining hay under false pretenses
is the charge upon which Philando
Hornbaker, of Moosic, was arraigned
before Alderman Wright yesterday.
Tho prosecutor, James Rooney, of
Susquehanna, alleges that he gave
Hornbaker credit on a quantity of hay
upon the strength of the defendant s
assertion that Representative Frank J
drover was his partner, which asser
tion Rooney doubted, when Hornbaker
delayed payment.
As Representative Orover attended
the hearing and admitted that he was
Hornbaker's partner the case had to
be dismissed. Rooney forthwith pro
ceeded to institute civil proceedings
against Hornbaker & Orover to recover
the hay or the equivalent.
MARRIED A COLORED MAN.
Sad Results of a Young White Girl's
Strange Iiifntuntion.
About a year ago some little no
torlety was given to the marriage o
Eugene Huff, a big colored man to
young and comely white girl. Huff
never treated her well and Instead of
contributing to her support was sup
ported by her.
She uncomplainingly put up with his
neglect and abuse until yesterday
when he committed an unusually
brutal assault upon her. She had him
arrested and arranged before Alder
man Miller who put him under 500
ball to answer at court.
He could not furnish a bondsman
and had to go to Jail.

HIS CONDITION UNCHANGED.
Officer Patrick Gibbons, of Olyphant
is Xo Better.
For the past three days the condition
of Officer Patrick Oibbons. of Olyphant,
who was feloniously assaulted Sunday
night and his skull fractured and stab
wounds inflicted In several places by
a gang of Polantlers In Novak's saloon
in Olyphant, has remained unchanged.
The day after the affray he was quite
comfortable and until Tuesday night,
at which time he got worse. Since then
he has been the same, and the outlook
for his recovery is not bright. So far
only one of his assailants has been
caught; the-others, from all accounts,
have taken passage for some distant
clime.
TWICE ESCAPED PRISON.
Once by Shedding Tears and Ajain by
Shedding an Officer Not
Afraid of Bullets.
Harry Linton, a 19-year-old colored
boy of Center street, got Into enough
trouble yesterday to keep him in hot
water for some time to come.
He was arrested during the afternoon
for stealing three razors and two clip
pers from his boarding-boss, James A.
Hrittlngham, also colored, who form
erly kent u barber shop on Spruce
street. The razors were taken last week
from the ex-barber's satchel and It was
only through the lad's boldness In try
ing to dispose of a razor to Jim Austin,
a friend of Brlttingham's, that he was
detected.
He al first stoutly denied his guilt,
but after Alderman Millar had worked
on him for about tifteen minutes he ad
mitted everything and told where he
had disposed of some of the stolen
goods. Two of the clippers were recove
red In Joseph Greens pawnsnop.
where he had pledged them for 50 cents,
and tho whereabouts of two of the
azors was also disclosed. As the youth
had made a full confession and was evi
dently very contrite the alderman oc-
qulsced to the prosecutor s request to
let him go.
He had not been gone half an hour
hen word was sent to the alderman's
office that young Linton was raising a
rumpus at his boarding house, assault
ing Brlttlngham and breaking the
furniture. Special Officer Byers was de
spatched to bring htm. back and he did.
Alderman Millar gave him a hearing
and forthwith committed him to the
county Jail to await trial.
Officer Byers started out with his
prisoner but did not take him fur, for
as soon as the bottom of the steiw was
reached Linton muue a sudden Jump,
cleaned himself from the officer's
grasp and started toward Luckawanna
avenue.
Byers gave chase but could not gain
on the fugitive. As pursued and pur
suer went through Wyoming avenue to
Railroad avenue the officer drew his
evolver and fired a shot In the air to
scare his man, but Linton did not scare
for a cent and for all the officer knows
he Is running yet.
A large crowd was attracted by the
chase and the pistol report.

LECTURED ON AARON BURR.
Brilliant Address Given by Colonel
Fairmun at Wood's College.
Colonel James M. Falrman lectured
before the faculty and students of
Wood's Business college lust night on
the life of Aaron Burr. His audience
was treated o a scholarly, eloquent
and instructive historical sketch ot the
man who was United States senator.
afterward vice-president of the United
States, and who came within one vote
of being chosen president of the United
Safes, and who died despised and
hated by his country.
Colonel Fair began with Burr at his
birth and followed his life throughout
all Its devlons stages. His three char
acteristics. Colonel Falrman said, were
his self assertion, arrogance, and his
uneasy ambition to overreach others.
His defeat for Governor of New York
was ascribed to Alexander Hamilton
and this brought on the duel which
ended In the latter's death at Wee-
hawken.
Burr fled to England, from there to
Sweden, then to Germany and to
France, and nowhere could he escape
from the odium that his murderous
deed merited. He eventually returned
to America and died a wretched death
on Staten Island. President O. F. Wil
liams, on behalf of the college, ten
dered the speaker a vote of thanks.
WAS A GOOD THING.
Novel Street Advertisement of the
Cosey & Kelly Brewing Co.
If the Casey & Kelly Brewing com
pany don't make a big success of their
tine bock beer it won't be because the
beverage isn't well advertised. A big
street parade was the medium which
brought the article to the public's no
tice last night.
Headed by a band a procession of
over a dozen big brewery wagons, each
drawn by four horses and a string of
barouches containing attaches anil
friends of the firm, traversed all the
Btreets of the business section. There
were banners and transnaraiiren which
left no doubt that the parade was for
me purpose or advertising the Casey

UNKNOWN MAN DEAD
IN COUNTY JAIL
He Was Committed Last Tuesday as a
Vagrant at Taylor.
HE THEN GAVE AN ASSUMED NAME
Called Himself Thomas Deacon, but
It is Thought That His Right Name
Was Harvey Surgent, of Priceburg.
Efforts to Identify Him Have railed.
Body Still at the Jail.
One of the prisoners at the county jail
died yesterday morning at 2 o'clock.
He gave his name when he was commit
ted last Tuesday morning ae Thomas
Deacon, but it Is believed that his right
name is Harvey Surgent, and that he
has no relatives in this section except
a cousin named John Surgent, living
either at Dalton or Factoryvllle.
The dead man was sent to Jail for
twenty days by Justice of the Peace
William P. Griffiths, of Taylor, on the
general charge ot vagrancy. It appears
that he had been drinking heavily and
was picked up by the police of Taylor
borough.
Early Tuesday night he became sick
In his cell, and Jail Physician Jenkins
was called. The doctor attended him
regularly, and last night the man got
worse, and lapsed into a condition,
which ended in hisdeath at the hour
stated. Dr. Jenkins says that the cause
of death was heart failure, brought on
from alcoholism.
KNEW ALFRED SMITH.
Deputy Warden T. J. Price learned
from some of the prisoners that the
deceased admitted to them that he gave
an assumed name when he waa com
mitted and he said something about
being acquainted with Alfred Smith, of
Priceburg. Mr. Price sent a telephone
message to Mr. Smith yesterday, and
the latter came down to the Jail. He
could not positively identify him, but
after searching the dead man's clothes,
he said he thought he was Harvey
Surgent and he told thnt such a man
worked for him three days last week,
got paid on Saturday night, and then
proceeded to expend the money for
liquor.
The county commissioners Instructed
Undertaker A. R. Raub to go to the
Jail yesterday and take charge ot the
remains. They lie In an Ice-box In the
Jail now, awaiting identification, and
unless some one comes to claim the
body today the commissioners will
make arrangements for Interment In
Forest Hill.
JOHN SURGENT SAW HIM.
John 8irgent,,of Throop, called at the
Jail last night under the Impression that
the deceased was his brother, but after
a look In the ice box he failed to rec
ognize the rigid features. Then he
looked at the clothes the man wore, and
was still unable to decide that it' was
his brother. Tho last he saw of his
brother, Harvey, was three weeks ago,
and then he wore different clothes to
the suit the dead man hod on; and his
brother had a heavy dark moustache,
while the dead man has a short mous
tache, and it has turned partly gray.
Surgent decided to come down again
this morning and have Undertaker
Raub remove the body from the Ice
box in order that a better look may be
obtained than can be got from peering
down Into the box.
The decrlptlon taken of the deceased
when he was committed and as it Is re
corded In the Jail register Is that he
was 40 years old; of light complexion;
hair brown, streaked with gray; that
he wore a No. 8 shoe; was 5 feet, 9 and
one-half Inches tall; weighed 169
pounds, and was a carpenter by occupa
tion. ACADEMY WAS CROWDED.

odd and absured things they did while
under the spell of Irufessor Sage were
very amusing. The exhibition closed
with a ball game participated In by
subjects. They entered Into the spirit

threw and batted an imaginary ball
about the stage, slid to imaginary
bases and kicked long and loud over
the decisions of the umpire.
The engagement ot the Sages will
close with tonight's exhibition. They
will be remembered as the most won
