TIERNEY HAD GRIT GALORE.
Was Assailed on All Sides but Clung
to His rrisoncr.
Special Officer Jack Tlerney, of Al
derman Millar's office, had an exciting:
experience In making an arrest yester
day morning.
He had a warrant in his pocket for
ono Theodore Knlttle, who. on May 4,
broke Into Clara Welchel's house on
Center street nnd beat the proprietress,
and meeting him at 1 o'clock yesterday
morning on Franklin avenue, near
Center street, proceeded to place him
under arrest. Knlttle resisted for all
he was worth, and with the assistance
of a female companion, Flossie Hamil
ton, gave the officer a hard struggle.
During the melee a man jumped off
a pussing car, struck the oftleer a blow
In the face and ran up Center street.
Tlerney still clung to his prisoners, and
although bleeding from a cut on the
nose and pretty well battered other
wise, held on to both the man and wo
man until two patrolmen arrived and
assisted him in taking them to the sta
tion house.
At the hearing before Alderman Mil
lar the Hamilton woman was lined $15
for Interfering with an officer. Knlttle
was lined SlG for resisting arrest and
held In $50l bail to answer the original
charge upon which the arrest was
bused. Tin woman puid, but Knlttle
went to Jail.
Mr. Tlerney would like to have n brief
Interview with the man who jumped
on ine car ana struck him.
ENUMERATION OF PUPILS.
The Assessors Have Sot Furnished
an Aerurute List.
As shown by the returns certified to
the county commissioners by the vari
ous assessors of the county, there are
1.2UU children between the aires of 8 and
12 yen is In Lackawannu county, but this
Is not accurate, for the reason that
some of the assessors failed to make the
enumeration as provided by the Farr
compulsory Education act, due no doubt
to the fact that it was the first time the
assessors have been required to do this
work. Tney have not performed It in
a systematic way and therefore It will
be some time before the commissioners
can obtain statistics from the enumera
tion which would be of interest; for in
stance, many of the assessors have not
recorded whether or not the children in
their district attend public, parochial,
or private schools.
This information will be more com
plete In the annuul reports of the school
superintendents which will be out in a
short time. Next year the commission.
era expect to get better work from the
assessors.
GIBBONS IS GETTING WELL.
Olyphant Constable Was Able to Walk
Out Yesterday.
Officer Patrick Gibbons, of Olyphant,

tured skull and several stab wounds.

Novak's saloon, in that borough, has so

longer in. doubt.
He was able to walk out of doors yes
terday, but is very weak vet. and it

MISSING FROM HOME.
Relatives of Joseph Parr, of Cedar
Avenue, W orried About Him.
Nothing has been heard of Joseph
Parr, of 316 Cedar avenue, since
Wednesday morning, and his absence
from home is causing his relatives
much uneasiness. He lived with his
son-in-law, Henry Smith, and was em
ployed as gardner on the Mattes estate.
He Is 65 years old and of German na
tionality. What makes his folks worry Is the
fear that he may have taken his life.
They are Inclined to this supposition
for the reason that the old man has
not been in good health recently, and
sickness has made his mind troubled.
The police were notified yesterday, but
no trace of his whereabouts had been
obtained last night.
MINOR POLICE DOINGS.
What Is Going on About the Central
Station House.
During the past two days seventeen
prisoners have been committed to the

Central hotel, were given thirty days
apiece by Alderman Wright.
Special Officer James Boles picked up
a beggar who has been traveling with
the circus, but who got laid out In
Wllkes-Barre by being arrested. He
was selling pencils on Lackawanna
avenue and begging them back from
the purchasers. It will be thirty days
befort be will catch up with the clonus.
WHAT THEY THINK ,
OF THE ORDINANCE
Wheelmen Not Pleased at First Witb
Councilman Lansing'g Measure.
UNDERSTAND THE SITUATION NOW
Know That It Was Intended only as
a Ground Work ou Which to Con
struct an Ordinance That U ill Meet
the Requirements of the CityCon
fcrence lias Been Suggested.
Mr. Lansing's bicycle ordinance, as
was expected, raised a big howl among
the wheelmen. It was the only subject
of conversation around the cycle stores
or w here a group of wheelmen chanced
to meet.
The purpose of the ordinance. In the
main is all right, they say, but many of
the details are decidedly objectionable.
The provision relating to permits they
claim Is the most objectionable. Ac
cording to this section a wheelman
from outside the city would have to
hunt up the city clerk or chief of police
or some other ofilcial and take out a
ten cent permit before he would be able
to ride on the street.
Willie doing this scouting he would
have to push his wheel through the
street, as another section of the law
forbids pushing a wheel on the side
walk. Another feature which meets with
great objection is the one requiring
wheelmen to have a metal number of a
prescribed size attached to the handle
bars of his wheel. This, they contend,
would not be so bad on the early com
ers but when the numbers commence
to run up Into the thousands the late
comers will have a pretty good sized
plate to carry around.
They also consider the section taxing
bicycles as a discrimination against
wheelmen and will object strenuously to
its adoption unless all vehicles are
taxed.
Towards the latter part of the day
when discussion and injuiry had devel
oped the fact that the ordinance as pre
sented is nothing more or less than u
groundwork on which to build a suit
able ordinance and that it has gone Into
a committee's hands for modification,
there wos a better feeling among cy
clists and without exception the move
ment was heartily approved.
One of the best propositions put for
ward was to have a committee com
posed of members of the bicycle clubs
to wait upon the rouncilmanio commit
tee and offer to assist in drafting the
proposed ordinance.
This it Is thought a measure could be
gotten up that would properly regulate
cycling and prevent any unjust and un
necessary annoyance to the wheelmen.
OPENING OF FARVIEW.
Uand Concert and Other Attractive
Features There Today.
Farview will be opened today for the
season by the Delaware and Hudson
