on, Who Was Helcnscd.
Edwnrd Mawson, of Scranton street,
who was arrested Saturday night on
suspicion of havins had something to
do with the case of the abandoned In
fant found by berry pickers on the West
Mountain, was given it hearing last
night by Alderman Howe, and was dis
charged. Recently Sirs. Cadden, a relative of
Mawson, gave birth to a child that
died soon afterward of convulsions.
Mawson took the dead infant to i'rice
burg without a burial permit and In
terred It In a cemetery there. Dr. lieck
wlth, of the West Side, who attended
the woman, testified at the hearing that
he was told the infant had died; and
Detective Steve , Iyer, who went to
Friceburg1, found cat that the child was
burled by Mawson. Under these cir
cumstances. It could not be possible that
the infant found on -the West Moun
tain was the one which Mawson was
concerned about
He feels very keenly Ms arrest on
what he claims Is flimsy foundation, and
spoke of engaging on attorney to bring
suit for false imprisonment and defolia

IN SELECT COUNCIL
A Big Grist of Measure. Was Passed
Upon.
AN ATTEMPT AT RECONSIDERATION
Mr. Lansing Wanted to Have the New
Assessment Resolution. Exhumed
and Fussed, but Could Vet No See
onder-'Legislation Affecting Every
Part of the City.
The recent political Interruptions
caused a large amount of business to
accumulate in select council and In or
der to clear It up a special meeting was
held last night. Every measure that
was In shape for consideration was
brought up and disposed and as a con
sequence legislation affecting every
section of the city was enacted. In the
absence of Colonel Sanderson, who is
attending the Wllllamsport convention,
Mr. Manley presided.
On third reading the following ordin
ances passed: Providing for a lateral
sewer on Wheeler avenue; providing for
laying Mag stone sidewalks and paved
gutters on Tenth street, between Scran
ton and Luzerne streets, also on Qulncy
avenue, between Fine and Gibson
streets; providing for ten electric lights
in the Twentieth ward, one at the cor
ner of Pittston avenue and Cherry
street.
PASSED TWO READINGS.
The following ordinances passed first
and second readings: Providing for
lateral sewers on Columbia avenue and
Kellum court; electric lights at the in
tersection of Adams avenue and Ash
street, Capouse avenue nnd Woodlnwn
boulevard, Raymond court and Mul
berry street, Kelser avenue and George
street, one on the Linden street bridge,
and three on the Spruce street bridge;
also providing fur grading Prescott ave
nue nnd laying flagstone sidewalks and
paved gutters on Railroad avenue In
the Eighteenth ward.
A resolution was introduced for an
electric lltfht on the corner of Four
teenth street and Sadie court, and on
ordinance establishing the grade of
Beech street in the Eleventh ward.
Two paving1 contracts were reported
from committee. 'Dunn Bros, got the
Mahon court asphalting, their price be
ing $2.23 per square yard. Nichols &
Co. whose MJ of $1.S93 Is the lowest
received In many years for stone block
paving, received the contract for pav
ing West Lackawanna avenue between
Ninth street and Main avenue.
Mr. Lansing1 move a reconsideration
of the resolution approving of the pro
posed new city assessment, which wns
killed at the last meetln, but he failed
to get a seconder to the his motion. Mr.
McCann, Mr. Fellows, Mr. Manley and
Mr. Kearney, each In turn offered him
self as a seconder, but Mr. Chittenden
raised the point of order that none of
them had voted In the affirmative and
they could not be accepted.
AVE ST SIDE SEWF.RS.
An ordinance providing for the con
struction of a sewer system on Robin
son street, Lonergan place. Chestnut
street, and Price street, and an ordin
ance providing for the laying of flag
stone Bldewalks and pave gutters on
Bromley avenue and Lafayette street,
were favorably reported from, their
respective committees.
The following resolution offered by
Mr. Durr was unanimously adopted:
Whereas: An effort is being mnde
by the firemen of the city to have the
convention of the State Firemen's As
sociation of 1897 held here, and whereas,
we deem such action commendable,
therefore, be It resolved by the select
council of the city of Scranton, the
common council concurring, that we
heartily approve of the efforts of our
firemen, to bring about the holding: of
said convention In this city and we
assure them that in the event of said
convention being held here we will
extend to the members such courtesy
ns will meet with their approval nnd
we feel that we con safely say the visit
ors wll lhave a good time.
Mr. Wagner Introduced a resolution
Instructing the city engineer to give
grade on Mahon court, between Olive
and Pine streets, where the abutting
property holders Intend to lay a cob
ble stone pavement. Council, however,
feared future complications If the engi
neer was allowed to give them a grade,
which could not be official Inasmuch as
it was not to be established by ordin
ance, and it was consequently laid on
the table.
CEMENT VS. ASPHALT.
The ordinance directing the street
commissioner to cover cement sidewalks
with asphalt was killed on third read
ing by a vote of ten to five. The or
dinance providing for the opening of
Price street was called up but there
being no available appropriation, it was
laid over for the time being.
An ordinance appropriating $400 for
the repair of the road roller was killed
by a tie vote. Mr. McCann started the
kick against the measure, complaining
that the road roller Is too expensive.
The ordinance transferring to the judge
ments and Incidentals found $11,800, the
revenue from liquor licenses In excess of
the controller's) estimate was called up
on third reading, but after some dis
cussion was laid over. In order to give
the councilman a chance to study It.
The money is needed for current ex
penses and It is feared that If It Is
placed in this fund It will be seized upon
by some of the creditors to whom the
city owes about $40,000 secured in dam
age suits.
A DISGRACEFUL SCENE.
Women Stone n Slianielesn Couple on
the South Side.
Mary Pugh, a familiar figure In police
circles, with a man who could not be
identified, were on the hill back of
Crown avenue yesterday morning
drinking and carousing In a most
shameful manner. Women of the
neighborhood stoned the shameless pair
and drove the man away. The woman
was too drunk or too stubborn to move
and Ftood the fusllnde of stones until
the arrival of the patrol wagon, which
carted her to jail.
She was committed for thirty days
by Alderman Wright.

The money was offered by T. Clark

would travel 20,1100 miles In one year

earn all their expenses while on the
trip which they do by writing cards
and giving elocution recitals. The
young men have thus fur been enabled
to follow their Itinerary and keep
ahead of their schedule.
The trip was brought about In this
way: lOurly In March there was a
smoker being held In the club and there
were a number who doubted thnt the
trip paid to have been mnde by the
famous Paul Jones was legitimate. A
number scoffed at ho genulncss of the
trip and among these was Mr. Polk,
who voluntarily offered the $4,000 to
any members then In the club who
could make such a trip. The proposi
tion was accepted by the two young
men.
MUST FOLLOW HULES.
The articles of agreement expressly
stipulate that the young men are to
follow the rules luld down or otherwise
forfeit the purse In which event the
money will be paid by Mr. Polk Into
the treasury of the club. As stated
above they must not beg, borrow or
steal, but are to pay all their expenses.
It was also obligatory upon them to
mail a letter to the secretary of the
club from each town laid for them to
visit with the signature of some re
sponsible citizen attached.
So far the riders have covered about
8, BOO miles and nre ahead of their try
ing schedule. Their route Is as follows:
From San Francisco through Los
Angeles, Snn Diego, Yuma, Phoenix,
Tuscon, El Paso, Jaurez, Chihuahua,
City of Mexico, Larado, San Antonio,
Houston, Galveston, New Orleans, Mo

AN OPPORTUNITY TO BUY

They were only slightly damaged by water, and one would scarcely notice the difference.
Others, and some of the Carpets stored there, were somewhat smoked and will be sold at

Think of Carpets at 20c Per Yard.
To give the public a chance to buy from our entire, stock at reduced prices, we have
marked down the price on everything. . Draperies as well as Carpets.
