WEEK OF LIGHT OPERA.
Jpt-ucd at Frothiugfeam Last Night
by Wilbur Coiupanr.
The Wilbur Opera company openod a
wink's engagement at the Frothlngham
last night by presenting "The Two
Vagabonds," which is "Ermlnle" under
another name. For some reason the
opera dragged last night, due perhaps
to the fact that the members of the
company were fatigued after their ride
from Wllllamsport and the afternoon
matinee for ladles when the "Grand
Duchess" was sung.
It was demonstrated last night, how
ever, that the company Is superior to
most of the popular priced operatic or
ganizations heard in this city. The
chorus Is large and well trained mid the
leading roles are assumed by such well
known artists as J- E. Conoley. Em
mett Drew, E. A. Clark. J. C. Harvey,
Maggie Bolton, Jeanette Palmer, Claude
Amsden, Hettle Richardson and Maud
Daniels, who Is also business manager
of the company.
During the third act of the opera a
very pretty march was given by the
chorus In a wny that called forth the
hearty approval of the audience. It
had to be repeated.
At the conclusion of the opera a
eerie of living pictures was given.
They are the most artistic thus far seen
In Scranton. The following were given:
"Diana," "Nature's Mirror." "Little
Puck," "Farewell," "Comrades," "The
Return," "The Sirens," "Grace Dar
ling," "What are the Wild Waves Say
ing," "After the Ball," "Venus and
Tanhauser," "The Angelus," "Me and
Jack," "Morning," "The Brothers,
"Good Night."
"Fra Diavolo" will be' sung tonight
by the company.
MARYLAND'S GOVERNOR.
He aud a Party of Eminent Jurists
Will Br Here Tomorrow.
Governor Lowndes and a distin
guished party of Marylanders are ex
pected to spend a few hours In this
city tomorrow. The party includes
Judges McSherry, Fowler, Huberts and
Russinan, of the Maryland court of ap
peals, and Judge Sloanc, of the Fourth
Judicial circuit court.
They are traveling on a pleasure
Jaunt In the private Baltimore and Ohio
car "Delaware," and expect to be out a
week altogether. Yesterday they were
at Niagara Falls and last night started
for New York via tho Delaware, Lacka
wanna and Western, Intending to make
several stops on the way.
Cornelius Comegys and C. Reynolds
Bedford, of this city, both of whom were
prominent Marylanders, are arranging
to entertain the distinguished visitors.
The letter which Mr. Comegys yester
day received stated that the party
would pobs through here at 2.30 a. m. to
morrow morning, but said nothing
about making any stop-over. Messrs.
Comegys and Bedford will endeavor to
Induce them to remain at least until the
afternoon, and If they do they will be
shown over the city and introduced to
prominent Scrantonians.
BARRETT BUILDING ABLAZE.
Fire in the Basement Causes Much
Smoke and Not a Little Daninge.
The Barrett building next to Hotel
Jermyn, on Spruce street, took Are at
12.10 o'clock this morning. The blaze
started In the basement and through the
efforts of the firemen were confined
there. P. H. Gllgallon, wholesale liquor
dealer, and D. S. Ryan, druggist, suf
fered the most from damage to the stock
In their cellars. The building was only
slightly damaged. The fire originated
in the cellar of Ryan's drug store, but
the cause Is unknown.
Lincoln Tillman, the well known col
ored fire lighter, of the Phoenix com
pany was overcome by the hot air and
smoke, and had to be carried out of the
cellar. He was protected with a patent
respirator but as It Is not proof against
hot ulr he came nearly being suffocated.
He was cared for at jJ. hman's and was
around again in half an hour. Many
guests at Hotel Jermyn were awakened
but there was little alarm occasioned.
HE WOULD SEE THE OPERA.'
To Uet in He Wore Female Attire and
a Wig.
The Wilbur Opera company opened Its
engagement by giving a free matinee
to ladles at the Frothlngham yesterday
afternoon when the "Grand Duchess'
was sung. It was announced that no
males need apply for admission but
one, was there nevertheless for the first
act.
He wore a woman's gown and a blond
wig on which a Jaunty hat was perched.
His awkward movements betrayed him
and Captain Edwards, who was on Wy
oming avenue at the time, was sum
moned to eject the Intruder. The lat
ter objected, told the captain he was a
"saucy thing" and "very rude to Uls
turb a lady," but nevertheless he had
to go.
When he realled that he was to be
put out the dlsguiBed one showed fight
but when the captain seized him by the
head he fled leaving his hat and wig In
the officers possession. He has not re
turned to claim them.

PARSONAGE QUESTION
HAS BEEN SETTLED
First PresbyterlM Minsi to Be
Sept-
rated from the Church Lot.
CONGREGATION DIVIDED ABOUT IT
Hatter Was Decided at a Meeting of
the Congregation LatNighWIsaac
Post and Ueorge II. ratlin Resign
from the Board of Trosteet-Sac
cessors Not Chosen Yet.'
The Presbyterian church will not
build its parsonage on the lot recently
purchased a tho corner of Olive street
and Madison avenue from the Scranton
Gas and Water company. This was de
cided at a special meeting of the con
gregation last night. It was further
decided that the trustees purchase a
house and lot separate from the new
church lot
The resignations of Isaac Post and
George II. Catlln from the board of
trustees were made known at last
night's gathering.
Ex-Judge H. A. Knanp and L. T.
Mattes were, respectively, chosen chair
man and secretary of the meeting, and
pruyer was offered by th pastor, Kev.
James McLeod. D. D, Soon after the
meeting began It was apparent that the
parsonage site, which has really been
no unsettled question since the congre
gation decided to build its $150,000 edi
fice, was received In three different
ways. One element approved building
the parsonage alongside the church and
on the lot; another element disapproved
that Idea, but was opposed to building
anywhere until tho necessary, funds
were In hand, while the third and finally
successful division advanced the action
which was finally taken.
A letter from A. W. Dickson, who was
out of town, was reau by W. R. Storrs,
The writer expressed himself as opposed
to locating the parsonage on the church
lot, but willing to abide by the action of
the meeting. Mr. Storr's seconded Mr.
Dickson's opinion and expressed the be
lief that the church structure ought to
cost $50,000 more than the amount de
cided upon, and, as tne congregation
might eventually think as he did, he dis
approved any step toward parsonage
building until the money was provided.
He did not think the lot sufficiently
large for the two structures.
READ FROM THE MINUTES.
Judge Hand read from the minutes
the past actions of the congregation on
the matter. The minutes showed that
the last action was during September
of last year, when it was decided to
build the parsonage on the church lot,
but to defer operations until the money
was raised or until the building com
mittee was Instructed to let the con
tract, the plans and specifications hav
ing been already approved by the com
mittee. Judge Hand moved that the building
committee proceed to let the contract
for building the parsonage at a cost of
$15,000 and that the $7,600 now In the
building fund (less $1,000 due for a pav
ing assessment), be used for the purpose
and that a mortgage of $C,500 be given
for the remainder.
The discussion which followed lasted
about half an hour, Mr. Storrs finally
offering to Judge Hand's motion an
amendment that the action taken In
September be adhered to. The amend
ment was lost and so was the original
motion, the latter by a vote of 15 to 30.
Mr. Storrs then made a motion that
the trustees Instead of the building com
mittee buy a house and lot In a suit
able location, the cost not to exceed
$15,000 nor the purchase to be made until
the money Is secured by contribution,
$7,500 being now In the building fund.
The motion prevailed by a vote of 20
to 12.
RESIGNATIONS WERE READ.
At the conclusion of the meeting the
resignations of Mr. Post and Mr. Catlln,
of the board of trustees, were announced
by F. E. Piatt, the secretary of the
board, who suggested that the resigna
tions be acted upon. James J. H. Ham
ilton raised the point or order that a
special meeting could not consider the
resignations or elect the retiring trus
tees' successors.
Judge Hand was of the opinion that
the rules of the church, which were
destroyed by Are, provided that the
trustees could act upon resignations and
fill vacancies on their board. This view
was not questioned. The meeting then
adjourned.

ALICE LIKED FINERY.
And, It Is Alleged, She Stole a
Silk
Waist.
Alice Butler, a colored cook In a Ray.
mond court boarding house, was arrest
ed yesterday and held to ball before Al
derman Millar for stealing a silk waist
from one of the young lady boarders,
Miss Blanche Brown.
Alice stoutly denied the charge, but
as witnesses were on nand to show
that she had been seen waring it, her
denials had no weight with the alder
man, and she will have to answer at
court.
WOMAN'S POCKET PICKED.
Mrs. Brunds Lost $28 While Shopping
Yesterday.
Mrs. J. Brunds, of 318 Cedar avenue,
encountered a pickpocket while out
shopping yesterday afternoon and
found herself minus $25 as a result.
With her daughter she went Into the
New York Bargain store and. after
making some . purchases placed ' her
purse containing $25 in the pocket of her
skirt.. When she got as far as the Wy
oming house corner she discovered that
the purse was missing and returning to
the store made the allegation that her
pocket had been picked there.
She also made this mum charge at
police headquarters but an lnvestlga-
tlon by Chief Robllng and Detective
Dyer failed to substantiate It- Mrs.
Brunds la positive that she put the
purse in her pocket and that It was re
moved by stealth.
BEAUTY AND INTELLIGENCE.
Excellent Performance hy Norris
Bros. Ponies' and Dogs.
The Norris Brothers' equine and canine
show which is now on In their tent at
the corner of Adams avenue and Mul
berry street, is one of the most enter
taining performances that has come to
this city In late years. They exhibit a
troupe of about fifty trained dogs and
ponies besides several other animals,
and the Intelligence displayed by these
brutes, at times makes the beholder
forget that they have not human under
standing. They seem to realize perfect
ly what is said to them and carry out
their trainer's commands as If they
undenrtcod every syllable uttered.
Another feature of the show Is the
acrobatic work. Including high jumping,
by dogB and ponies, tight rope walking
and ladder climbing by dogs, and bare
back riding by a dog, goat and monkey.
The tent was crowded last night and
everybody seemed delighted with the
performance, particularly the chilren.
They remain the balance of the week
giving performances each evening at 8
o'clock, and matinees today, Thursday
and Saturday at 2 o'clock. The children
of St. Patrick's Orphan Asylum, the
Home for the Friendless and the Oral
School fcr the Deaf have been invited
to attend today's matinee.
WILL MAKE BICYCLES.
Such an Establishment Is Promised to
Scranton in the Near Future.
Those Interested in it.
If you wait till the first of August you
can ride a Scranton bicycle, made In
Scranton by Scranton manufacturers,
and bearing the typical Scranton name
of the Anthracite.
F. S. Barker, of the firm of S. O. Bar
ker & Son, the Seventh street scale
manufacturers, returned yesterday
from New York, where he spent the past
week closing the arrangements for the
equ'pment of a first-class bicycle fac
tor.
The machinery, tools and material are
now on their way here and will be im
mediately put In place In the company's
plant on Seventh street.
The bicycle factory will, for the pres
ent, be run in connection with the scale
works, but before another year has
passed they expect to erect separate
buildings of such capacity as the trade
will warrant An expert who was for
years a foreman in one of the leading
factories of New England, has been en
gaged and will be In the city this week
to superintend the erection of the ma
chinery. The "Anthracite" they claim will be
a high grade wheel, which will compare
with the best on the market. The first
to be turned out will be of the '97 pat
tern and will contain all the Improve
ments and new ideas which the com
pany controls by purchase or invention,
By Aug. 1 they expect to have the
wheels on the market. Just to what
proportions the industry will grow Is a
matter of conjecture, they say, but If
merit will count for aught they have
every hope that It will yet be one of the
leading Industries of the city.
LIVELY RACE OF PONIES.
It
Was Not One of the Advertised
Features of Parade.
Two small ponies In the Norris Bros.
parade at noon yesterday gave a pretty
exhibition of running powers as the
line of march was going down Franklin
avenue toward Lackawanna. The per
formance was not on the programme,
A Scranton messenger boy. In a suit of
startling hue, was driving the dwarf
horses. The tiny wagon on which he sat
became partially loosened from the
ponies, and, frightened at the accident
they scampered aheau at an exciting
rate.
After running over the other ponies
In front, the two equlnes rushed into a
wagon at the Valley house. There they
stopped. One attempted to keep the
road; the other wanted to round the
sidewalk. The big wagon was In be
tween and the halt was as startling as
It was complete. The boy driver was
thrown off his seat early in the race. He
escaped with skin-pared knuckles and
a frightened feeling. The parade moved
on In a few minutes.
CONVENTION AT JESSUP.
It
Was Held by Ancient Order
of
Hibernians on Sunday.
Nineteen divisions of Ancient Order
of Hibernians, and two military compa
nies, one from Carbondale and another

annual convention of the county board
held Sunday In' St. James hall, Jessup.
The committee on credentials reported
101 delegates present. County Delegate
M. J. McAndrew, of Archbald, presided,
and the officers and delegates to the re
cent state convention at Philadelphia
made favorable reports.
The question of recruiting the forces
and of forming one organization were
discussed at length and the delegates
were convinced that the much desired
project would be carried out before
many months. After the regular order
of business had been disposed of the
following officers were elected: M. J.
McAndrew, county delegate; Eugene
McDay, recording secretary; John Mc
Hale, financial secretary; M. H. La
velle, treasurer. The convention closed

WAS BITTEN BY A DOG.
A Ten-Ycnr-Old Boy's Right
Leg
Painfully Lacerated.
Dr. 8. P. Longstreet was called at
o'clock last evening to attend Edward
10-year-old son of Edward Softley, of
420 Mulberry street. The boy was se
verely bitten on the calf of tho right leg
by a cur dog. The limb was painfully
lacerated, but the doctor says that no
serious results will follow. .
The boy's baby brother was seated
along the walk leading from the porch
to the gate and two dogs began to fight
near where the latter was. Edward ran
down to save the child and In removing
him got bitten. The dog did not attack
him, happening to catch him as It was
biting at the other dog. Chief of Police
Robllng ordered the dog shot.
Another son of Mr. boftley was In
jured by having his collar bone broken
a few days ago In falling from a car.
