ARRESTED FOUR TIMES.
Twelve Year-Old Uoy Who Is a Con
Armed Knight of the Road.
There Is a twelve-year-old tramp at
the station house who has been arrett
ed four times In this city for vagrancy.
He hails from Shenandoah and is a son
if Andrew LukazewEkl but as his real
name Adalbert Lukazewskl would be
qtllte bothersome to carry about the
country he has adopted the plain dem
ocratic cognomen, Mike Smith.
He is very cute for one of his years
and if not Interrupted will make a
great namo in his chosen walk of
lli. Saturday upon his arrival In this
city he went to Rev. Father Moffltt, of
St. John's, South Side, and by telling a
sad story was taken In and tenderly
cured for. After Imposing upon Father
Mount's good nature for two days he
bade him adieu and sought shelter with
liev. Father Aust, the Polish priest,
adopting for the occasion his real nam?.
Father Aust mode some Inquiries con
cerning the lad and the result was that
ho went Into the custody of the po
lice, yesterday ufternoon.
Mrs. Duggan, of the Associated Char
ities, took charge of the lad and will
endeavor to have him placed In somo
correction Institution, as It Is too ex
pensive to pay his fare home to Potts
vllle every time he sees fit to pay this
city a visit.

Snarls Arrested Yestcrdav.
Constable Joseph Woelkers and Ru
dolph Swartz of the South Side were
arraigned before Alderman De Lacy of
the Seventh ward yesterday on a
charge of malicious mischief. Mr. Julia
ZwicOeldrulso "of the South Side, was
the prosecutrix.
Swartz at one time boarded with the
prosecutrix and It Is alleged by her that
he still owes her a board bill as security
for which Bhe is holding his trunk.
Swartz obtained a search warrant from
Alderman Robllng, but Mrs. Zwlcfleld
refused to allow Constable Woelkers to
serve It and was arrested and held to
appear at court on a charge of resisting
an officer.
They then returned and broke In the
door of the house to get at the trunk
and for this were arrested. They were
held in $-'00 ball each for their appear
ance at court.
WAS IN A BAD HUMOR,
S. W, llresc Caused Constable Yeo
mans No End of Bother.
S. W. Reese, of Meridian street, was
arrested yesterday by Constable Yeo
man on a warrant isBued by Alderman
Howe, charging him with making
threats against his neighbor, O. H.
Payne, and in default of $300 ball was
committed to the county jail to await
trial.
The constable had to fairly carry his
prisoner from the time he secured him
until he landed him In the county jail.
He resisted every step of the way and
even while the hearing was going on
the constable had to sit upon him sev
eral times to keep him quiet.
He would not listen to reason or deign
to defend himself at the hearing, being
seemingly, satisfied with creating all
the bother possible for the constable.
He was not drunk but simply in a
very cranky tnood.
WANTED FOOD BUT TOOK CLOTHING.
Tourists Mho Were Not Particular
Where They Stole.
Tuesday afternoon two men called at
the Episcopal residence of Bishop
O'Hara on Wyomng avenue and asked
for somethng to eat. They bore un
mstakable evidence of being knights
of the road but Rev. J. A. O'Reilly,
loath to turn them away asked them
to clean up the lawn about the cathe
dral by way of earning the entertain
ment they would receive.
A oalnter at work on the house had
his coat hanging where the knights
could conveniently reach it and In the
pocket of the coat was a ticket for
Philadelphia.
Presently the coat, ticket and knights
disappeared and they have not been
seen since.

THIRTEENTH IS
MAKING READY
Officers aad Met Are la a State of
General Preparation.
ENCAMPMENT BEGINS NEXT WEEK
Regiment Mill Leave Here on the
Night of Friday, July 17Advance
Detail Leaves Thursday Morning.
The Entire National Guard of the
State M ill Be Present at Encamp
sent.
At present there is a general prepara
tion among the officers and enlisted
men of the Thirteenth Regiment for
the division encampment at Lewiston
from Saturday, July 18. until the morn
ing of the Saturday following. The en
campment will bring together not only
the complete infantry, cavalry and ar
tillery force of the state's National
Guards, but will also Include a detail
of United States troops and the Naval
Reserve from Philadelphia. The en
campment will contain from 7,000 to
10,000 officers and men.
The Thirteenth, the leading regiment
of the state, has always born with pride
Its consplculous position In the National
Guard. As this year's gathering of the
military Is for the particular mannouv
ering of the entire large state force, in
stead of Individual regimental or brig
ade drill and manipulation, the Thir
teenth will have an opportunity to ap
pear in practical competition In view
of scores of critical eyes iwlth the mass
of men who wear the blue for the pres
ervation of law and order In the Key
stone state. That's why Colonel Cour
sen and his staff are making an extra
effort for a hundred percent turnout
and an appearance and show of perfect
duty which will proclaim the Thir
teenth In the field as on paper the
best that exists In Pennsylvania.
THE ADVANCE DETAIL.
On Thursday of next week a camping
party of advance detail will leave here
to prepare the Thirteenth's camping
ground. The detail will consist of six
men and a non-commissioned officer
from each company. They iwill leave
here In a special car attached to the 6
a. m. Lackawanna train fer Blooms
burg in command of Major Montrose
Barnard, and accompanied by-Assistant
Surgeon C. R. Parke, of this city.
On arrival at Lewiston Major Barnard
will furnish the Regiment with a spec
ial headquarters detail to one non-oom-mlslsoned
officer and not less than ten
men and will send Ave to brigade head
quarters. The camp detail will take with them
the cooks of each company, their utenT
slls and all the heavy baggage of the
companies which will be loaded Into
special baggage cars Wednesday night.
In the company advance details will be
many carpenters and other mechanics
who will be especially useful In prepar
ing the camp.
In order to preserve proper discipline
until the arrival of the main body of the
regiment Major Barnard has orders to
arrest and hold for court martial any
vlolaters of the military rule.
THE TRIP TO CAMP.
The staff, drum corps and four of the
city companies will assemble at the ar
mory Friday night, the 17th, at 8.30
o'clock. Companies F, of the West
Side; H, of the North End; E, of Hones
dale and G, of Montrose, will Join the
city of rce at the depot at o'clock. The
regiment will be equipped in heavy
marching order and each man will carry
one day's cooked rations. A car on Cliff
street will be loaded with the horses
and equipments of the field and staff
early in the evening. This car will be
attached to the special train of nine cars
which will leave the depot at 9.10 o'clock.
The ride to Lewiston will occupy about
seven hours, the train reaching Lewis
ton at daylight Saturday morning.
An Idea of the routine discipline of the
camp may be gleaned from the follow
ing clause which appears In the camp
order just Issued by Colonel Coursen:
The utmost attention will be paid by
commanders of companies to the cleanli
ness of their men, as to their person,
clothing and tents. The men will bathe at
least twice a week, and the bathing hours
will be before 6.30 o'clock a. m. and sf ter
retreat. The hair will be k.pt short and
beard neatly trimmed. Soiled clothes will
be kept In an appropriate part of the cloth
ing bag. No articles of any kind wHI bo
put under the bedding. Arms and accout
rements will at all times be kept clean ami
all articles or black leather polished with
blacking and everything kept In order.

PLAYED WITH DYNAMITE.
Pent West Side Beys Try a Peculiar
Experiment.
Three West Sidelads whose ages range
from ten to thirteen years were severe
ly burned, though not seriously.yester
day afternoon while playing wl& dy
namite and a bonfire. The leader of
the fun, a 15-ye -old boy whose name
could not be . arned, escaped un
harmed. The 15-year-old procured a stick of
dynamite from some unknown source
and with Bert Butcher, Ralph Dale
and Bert Flanlgan built a bonfire back
of the letter's home. 111 North Brom
ley avenue. The dynamite was placed
on the heap of burning rubbish
and the boys stood about the blaze
waiting for developments.
There was an explosion and the group
was wrapped In a sheet of flame. All
escaped Injury from the flying debris
but the three youngest were burned
severely enough to require medical at
tendance. CHILD SAVING WORK.
Aaother One of Tender Years Taken
Iron a Mother Who Was Bringing
Her Up in tbe Wrong Way.
Another child of tender years was
yesterday taken from a debased mother
who was bringing her up amid the
sinful surroundings of the lower Lacka
wannaavenue dives. The child's name
is Flora Markus and her age is but
thirteen years.
If the suspicions of her rescuers are
correct the lltte one's mother is deserv
ing of the severest punishment the law
in such cases provides, but until such
time as these surmises are proven true
It Is well out of charity for the human
race not to dwell upon them.
Alderman Miliar, who empowered the
child saving committee of the As
sociate charities to take the girl Into
custody, commlted her to tbe house of
the Good Shepherd until oourt can
take aotlon in the case.
Other cases of similar routine are be
ing Investigated by the agent of the
board.
Two cases of domestic infelicity were
among the many that came before Al
derman Millar, yesterday. Carlton G.
Palmer, an aged man waa the com
planant In one of them. His wife who
is many years kls Junior, left him a
couple of weeks ago and went to Car
bondale where she Is being harbored by
one Mrs. Kate May. Palmer went up
to call on his wife with the Intention
of patching up their differences. She
did not fall on his neck but her champ
ion, a young man named Fred Sherman,
did and Sherman will now have to an
swer at court for his gallantry. Mrs.
May, who Is accused of making dire
threats was also arrested. Each
waived a hearing and entered boll be
fore Alderman S. 8. Jones.
The other case was one which caused
the alderman no little chagrin. Three
months ago he married Mr. and Mrs.
Nlmrod Edwards and thought at the
time that he tied a pretty good sort
of a knot. Yesterday Mrs. Edwards had
her husband arraigned for cruelty and
desertion. The husband waived a hear
ing and entered ball for his appearance
at court.
Joseph Delfelt was to have been given
a hearing last night for stealing a
pitchfork from Alvln Setter, of Chin
chilla, but owing to the absence of .wit
nesses the case was postponed until
Saturday afternoon at 2 o'clock.
RELICS OF MORWONISM.
The Old McKwe Residence Going to
DecayStory of Joe Smith
and the "Scelag Stone."
Special to The Scranton Tribune,
New Mllford, July 8. The old Mc
Kune residence, of Mormon fame, be
tween this place and Susquehanna, Is
fast falling to decay. It was In this
building that the manuscript for the
Mormon bible was compiled In the year
1830, and the funds for the prlntingof the
same was furnished by a farmer named
Martin Harris, a coadjutor of Joe Smith.
No manuscripts or proofs were left in
the office over night, and the work was
done with as much secrecy as possible.
The cost of publishing the work caused
Harris to sell his farm and reduced his
family to poverty. The germ of Mor
monism originated In the salt works
near the city of Syracuse In the form
ot a green egg-shaped stone, which was
known as "a seeing stone," and was
brought to this country by Jack Belcher
of Gibson, who obtained it while team
ing In the salt works at the Saline city.
By the aid of this marvellous stone,
placed beneath a hat, certain people
could see locations of lost cattle, child
ren, jewels, treasures, etc., or almost
anything that the aforesaid "certain"
people wanted to find.
It was at this stage of the game that
Joe Smith, then a lumberman and a
gold hunter, ran across Belcher and se
cured the precious stone, that he
(Smith) might employ it in his searches
for treasure near what Is now known
as Hickory Grove, midway between
Great Bend and Susquehanna. During
the year previous to meeting Belcher,
Smith had posed.as a religious prophet,
and although his prophecies often went
by the contraries, yet amonc the enriv
settlers he was considered as something
more than the ordinary. But as his dig
gings resulted In the finding of no treas
ures, Joe told his followers that the
place was enchanted, and that to re
move the said enchantment a white dog
should be killed and Its gore scattered
about the place. Then a search for a
white dog was Instituted, but white dogs
were scarce In those days and none
could be found, so as a substitute for a
white dog a white sheep was procured
and its blood sprinkled about the n.
chanted place. But when the enchant
ment wanted dog It wouldn't be fooled
by sheep.and so the treasure was never
discovered and is probably secreted in
those hills to this day. The largest
digging was about 150 feet In circumfer
ence and twenty feet deep.and Is easily
dlsernable to this date. Smaller pits
In the same locality were also dug.
Soon after the above described dig
gings occurred. Smith, with a few fol
lowers, removed to Ohio and founded a
church; from there the "Saints" re
moved to Independence, Mo., and from
there to Nanvoo, III., where Smith was
Imprisoned by the owners of a news
paper called the Exnosltnr u-hih
been demolished by Smith's orders. On
tne -Ttli of June, 1844, a mob of nearly
200 men broke into the Jail and shot
Joseph Smith, Jr., and Hiram, his
brother.
And so the old house where the book
was compiled crumbles back to
and the winds mourn over Its ruins, bo
are the foundations of Mormonlsm sink
ing Into dust and the winds of truth are
chanting sad requiems as they pass up
and down this great land of freedom.
