MARRIAGE WAS A FAILURE.
Hymenal Experiment That Did Not
Prove Successful.
Just before ex-Mayor Connell retired
from office he performed his first, last
and only marriage. He also tried an
experiment at the same time. The
subjects of the experiment were the
principals in the marriage. May Bell
man and Louis Possenger. She was ar
rested on complaint of her daughter
and was about to be bound over for
court when Possenger agreed to marry
May and reform her. The mayor agreed
to the experiment, withdrew the prose
cution and married them free of charge
incidentally, neglecting- to make a re
turn of the marriage to the board of
health and bringing upon himself a
threat of prosecution.
But for the sequel. The experiment
Itf proven to be a failure. Marriage
failed to reform May. She Is again at
her old stand, No. 18 Lackawanna ave
nue, and again In the tolls of the law.
Yesterday a girl named . Eva Smith
complained that Mrs. Possenger as
saulted her and secured a warrant from
Alderman Millar for her arrest. She
was taken Into custody, together with
a young girl named Katie Fox, found
In her apartments, and both were heav
ily fined.

WAS LITERALLY
BURIED IN FILTH
Terrible State fa Which Mrs. Tboaui
Harris Has Existed,
SHE IS NOW IN THE ALMSHOUSE
Poverty and Despondency Rednces
Her to a Condition That Almost
Passes BclicfFaraitere in Her
Hoase Bnraed by Order of the Poor
Anfhorities8he Is the Mother of
Three Children.
The lowest depth of degradation can
be no lower than the astounding condi
tion of a Taylor woman, who, with
three small children, was Thursday af
ternoon forcibly taken from her miser
able hovel, near the Taylor breaker, and
driven to the Ransom poor house. Her
name is Mrs. Thomas Harris and she Is
a widow, her husband having died three
years ago. Since his death she has fair
ly reveled In filth. The three children
are all under fourteen years of age and
the family's only support was from the
earnings of the oldest boy, who worked
as a slate picker In a Taylor breaker.
Three years ago Mrs. Harris was a
respectable,. Industrious woman, .but
poverty and despondency fed upon Wr
mind so that at each succeeding month
she became more and more caivless In
living until finally she gave up hope and
allowed herself to go down to the deep
est dregs of human existence,
DESERTED BY NEIGHBORS.
She lived In a little, black house near
the Taylorvllle woods and the spot was
shunned by every resident of the neigh
borhood. No sympathetic hand was ex
tended to her; no one seemed to care
what she did or where she went. The
world began to despise her. The earn
ings of the boy barely paid the rent.
Then he was thrown out of employment
and seek as he would he could get notht
ing to do.
This was the final stroke. For some
days Mrs. Harts was not seen by the
neighbors. They made inquiries and
discovered her condition to be close to
a horrible death. Poor Director Ira
Atherton, of Plttston poor dlstrM,
Lackawanna township, was asked to In
vestigate the case. He did so three
weeks ago and left orders with the
men of the neighborhood to enter the
house and overhaul the premises.
OAVE HER A SCRUBBING.
No one cared to undertake the Job,
however, and when Mr. Atherton again
visited the place Thursday he found
an even worse condition. Summoning
several of the women and men of the
neighborhood the poor director entered
the house. The sight that met their
gaze defies description. The ' woman
fairly reeked with disease and dirt. She
was dragged from bed where she had
lain for an unknown time and was made
to bear a thorough scrubbing and clean
ing. Her only remark when told she
must go to the poor farm was: "Must I
work?"
She was told "yes." Then she ob
jected, but, despite continued strug
gling, she, with her children, was taken
In "a wagon over the hills to the poor
house. There she la now. The house
furniture was taken out and burned In
a heap. It would not stand cleaning.
