Every year has witnessed Improve
ments of some kind In all of Scranton's
houses of amusement. This year Is no
exception to the rule.
At the Frothlngham nothing- could
be done to improve either the beauty
or the comfort of its main auditorium.
The theater Is comparatively new, having-
been opened as recently a early
In 1S'J3 and on Its completion it was
pronounced one of the most modern
and magnificent In the state. Still
wherever any wear wus shown In its
elaborate furniture and draperies the
defect has been remedied.
Its la.rg:e and fully equipped stage
has ulwaya been capable of sustaining
nnd properly presenting nny attraction
that travels and hus required but little
In the way of improvement. What
ever new stage equipment has been In
troduced in the large cities and which
would facilitate work on the Frothlng

BURNED TO DEATH.
Colored Child Enveloped In Flames.
Discovered by lis Mother Killed
Almost Instantly.
Wcnford Wye, the 3-year-old son of
John C. Wye, a colored waiter at the
Hotel Terrace, was burned to death at
his father's home in the old Faurot
building, 120 Washington avenue, early
last evening.
The little fellow was with his mother
on the third floor about 6.30 o'clock and
as It was beginning to graw dark the
mother went down stairs to get a lamp.
She was gone for some little time and
upon her return was horrified to see her
child lying in bed enveloped In flames.
The mother grasped him In her arms
and rushed down stairs, screaming for
help. Before assistance arrived she was
badly burned about the arms and the
child was dead, every piece of clothing
having been burned from his body and
his tlesh virtually roasted.
LIGHTED CANDLE.
The little fellow. It afterwards de
veloped, hnd lighted a candle which
was standing on the bureau, and In do
ing this It Is supposed set fire to his
kilts. He then. In his terror. Jumped
into bed, and when his mother found
him he was completely enveloped in
flame, the bed clothing also having
taken fire. The mother says she heard
no screams and the belief is that tho
little fellow upon discovering his plight
became too terrified to make an outcry.
The Wye's recently came here from
Chatnbersburg, where tho family home
Is. They are a young couple and the
boy was their only child.
Tho funeral will take place this af
ternoon. FIREMEN'S UNION MEETING.

MURDERER VAN HORN
PAYS ANOTHER VISIT
Revisits the Scene of His Crime a
Second Time.
HE ESCAPES IN THE DARKNESS
Watchers Were on the Porch of the
House and Gave ChaseWere They
AfraidN-Thc Precautions Taken
Against His Further Return.
Funeral of Mrs. Westcott Today.
A startling feature has been added
to tho Westcott murder case. Van
Horn, the slayer of the woman, is
believed to have made a second vis
itation to the scene of his crime.
There Is now no doubt In the minds
of the family of the murdered woman,
and the police are forced to admit it,
that the breaking of the padlock on
the cellar door, during the early hours
of Saturday morning, .was the worK
of Van Horn It being explained that
he returned to get the razor which
he knew could be readily Identified as
belonging to him, and which if found
would be the most positive kind of
evidence against him. On account of
the terror which this bold act in
spired among the female members of
the household two men have kept
guard about the house each night.
Early yesterday morning the two
watches, whose names are withheld
for obvious reasons, saw a man, who
they declare was Van Horn, come
around the corner from Spruce street
and pass down Franklin avenue. The
men were sitting on the front piazza
and both Jumped to their feet when
Van Horn, or the man they declare
was Van Horn, hove in sight. He did
not see them on the dark piazza and
was peering into the house. Alarmed
by their rising to their feet, he started
off at a rapid walk.
Either through excitement or fear
they allowed him to get the distance
of two or three lots down tho strer.t
before they attempted to follow. When
they came out of the gate he broke
Into a run andidodged Into Page court.
When the pursuers, If Indeed they
could rightly be called such, reached
the head of the court the fugitive
was no where to lie seen. They claim
they made a search for him but In the
excitement It Is possible they may
have neglected to make a very thor
ough search.
NEW WATCHER ENGAGED.
The watchers of Sunday night were
replaced last night by Special Officer
George Wlckenhoffer, who armed him
self with a shot gun and swore that
If Van Horn again came about tiiat
the hunt for him would be brought to
a sudden termination.
The impression that has gone forth
that Mrs. Westcott was somewhat
partial to Van Horn's attentions does
a great Injustice to the unfortunate
woman, the family claims. It Is three
years since he boarded at Westcott's,
and during all that time he was nev
er once received as a visitor at the
house, and his hanging about the
place was a great unnoyance and ag
gravation to all In the household, Mrs.
Westcott included.
He was a number of times caught In
the cellar and driven out, and on one
occasion when a crock of butter was
missed he was without any hesitation
put down as the thief. He, It seems,
felt that because he once boarded at
the house and because his brother was
married to one of Mrs. Westcott's
daughters that he had some claim of
hospitality.
The funeral of Mrs. Westcott will
take place this afternoon. Services will
be conducted at the house at 12 o'clock
noon, and the remains will be taken
on the 1.20 p. m. Delaware and Hud
son train to Jermyn for Interment.
Up to midnight Van Horn remained
unruptured. The general belief Is that
he Is stljl hiding about the rlty, arid
that he will before many days fall
into the hands of the police.
The county commissioners stated
yesterday that they do not propose
at present to offer a reward for his
capture.
DISMISSED FROM SCHOOL.
Taylor Pupils Ordered by the Health
Board to Be VaccinatedSchools
Are Depleted.
Down In Taylor there was much trou
ble among school children yesterday
when the public schools of that borough
tried to onen for the term. The Taylor
board of health hns decreed that no
child can enter the borough schools un
less each one has been vaccinated and
can present a physicians' certificate to
that effect. That was what caused the
trouble.
When the schools were opened nt 9
o'clock the teachers accosted each pupil
and asked for the certificate. The vast
majority of them had not obeyed the
health board's mandate, and, conse
quently, the careless ones were dis
missed and are debarred from re-entering
until such time as each can show the
doctor's statement.
As an example of the state of things
the Taylor high school Is quite forcible.
In each room, out of about a half hun
dred pupils, only two or three could re
main at school. This was the case in
every department from the Infant to the
highest grade. And in all other build
ings the condition was the same,
ENTIRE SYSTEM MIXED.
The entire school system In the bor
ough Is out of running order. The
teachers cannot arrange classes, as the
pupils now In a whole building would
not make up a reasonable sized class.
The schools will be crippled for at least
a week, as It takes that length of time
for the vaccination to take effect.
During yesterday and until a late
hour last night the local physicians
were pestered with Juvenile patients.
Dr. Houser seems to be the espcial suf
ferer. He Is connected with the board
of health and the pupils erroneously
think that his work Is consequently not
to be paid for. Dr. Houser's and other of
fices were crowded last night, in some
Instances over a half hundred children
being in the line of succession for treat
ment. Over 300 children have already been
vaccinated. The supply of necessary
material has run out, and, pending the
arrival of more, the physicians are rest
ing. " COMPANY NOT TO BLAME.
Coroner' Jury's Verdict on the Death
of Mrs. Knwalcbick.
After hearing much testimony the
coroner's Jury, inquiring into the man
ner of the death of Mrs. Mary Kawal
chlck, agreed upon a verdict to the
effect that she died as ithie result of be
ing struck and run over by a Peckville
street car at Dutch Gap on Sunday
evening. Aug. 23; and the Scranton
Traction company and Its employes
were exonerated from ail blame for the
accident, for the reason thott the latter
used all means In their power to stop
the car and prevent the serious result.
The Jury could not agree upon the
speed of the cor from the conlllctlng
testimony and left that branch of the
case pass without comment. Corower
Longstreet avus careful to bring out all
the testimony powrihle so that the
blame could be fixed where it belonged.
A question nroee as to whether or
not the men In the wagon were under
the Influence of liquor. A man named
Smith said that the two men were
stunned after falling out of the wagon,
and hp had them carried Into his house.
"Did they appear under the influence
of liquor?" asked Coroner Longstreet.
"No, they didn't," said Smith.
"Could you smell liquor on them?"
queried the coroner, and Smith's reply
sett the court room in roars. It was as
follows:
"Well if anyone con smell liquor on a
person my wife can, and she didn't
smell any on them."
John Kawalchlck, husband of the
dead woman, swore that the horse was
never before that known to get fright
ened at a street car, and what fright
ened it that evening and caused it to
careen into the track, was the noise of
tho car produced by Its high rate of
Bpeed and the clanging of the motor
man's bell.
