CLAY PIPE CLUB'S
JAUNT FOR FUN
Scranton's Care-Takers Deserted. Their
Posts (or a Day.
ALL THE CITY OFFICIALS ATTENDED
Mayor ITailey Umpired a Game of
Ball and tiave General Dissatisfac
tioii"Ulank Cartridges Used in n
Shooting 3Iaich--lt Was at Lake
Ariel and About 130 Persons Were
, Present.
All city business was transacted by
telegraph yesterday. In fact there was
very little, If any, transacted, for the
day witnessed the Clay Pipe club's an
nual outing: at Lake Ariel.
The Clay Pipe club is an organiza
tion of the city engineer's ofllce formeJ
during Ed. Ulewltt's term and kept
Jin existence ever since. Once a year
they take a day off and Invite the city
officials and a few others to partake of
thtlr hospitality. These outings are al
ways highly enjoyable but yesterday s
contained more of good things than
any held yet. The crowd was much
larger thnn ever before and having
prolitcd by past experiences, the duo
was better educated as entertainment
caterers.
One hundred and lifty invitations were
sent out and nearly all were accepted.
The lurpest part of the crowd went up
to the luke on the morning train, the
afternoon train bringing those who
could not get away before noon. Every
guest upon his arrival on the grounds
was presented with a clay pipe, thu
badge of the club, which, if he did not
care to smoke he was expected to wear
In the band of hla hat. The club fur
nished filling for the pipes and also for
the guests.
SPORT OP ALL KINDS.
During the day there were athletic
games of all kinds and during the later
part of the afternoon a shoottng match
for a set of pictures took place. Owing
to the rain, iwhlch marred the close of
the day, the match could not be fin
ished and the pictures were awarded
to Councilman Burns who is a crack
shot and who undoubtedly would have
won the prize beyond peradventure had
not somebody rung In a box of blank
cartridges when he was shooting'.
The City Hall club won a game of
base ball from a Bcrub team In the
morning and in the afternoon played a
tie game with a club composed prin
cipally of newspaper men, captained
by James O'Connor, of the Truth.
Mayor Bailey umpired the last game
and gave thorough dissatisfaction. He
knew the gnnie, meant well and all
that, but the drizzling rain which fell
during the first two innings warped
his Judgment.
A hand ball tournament which was
in progress during a greater part of
the day was won by ex-Deputy Con
troller Gaffncy, the one-time champion
of the "Con'n'tal" and Contractor Oib
bons, of Wilkes-Barre. P. W. Gallagher
won a spirited fat man's race In which
Dan Battle and Chief Hickey came In
respectively second and third.
At the close of the day an Impromptu
meeting was called and John J. Flana
ghan presided. City Solicitor Torrey
was called upon to spenk for the trutsta
and in a few well chosen words ex
pressed the congratulations and thanks
of the guests for the Clay Pipe club's
excellent entertainment.

STATION HOUSE WAS FULL.
So Also Was a Goodly l'nrt or the
Filling.
For the first time In about a month
the central station house, last night,
was filled to overflowing. First of the
month pay days were responsible for
much of th filling, but the crisp night
air which has a tendency to cause va
grants to seek some shelter other than
the blue canopy of heaven contributed
its share to the Ailing process.
Five tramps, two of them captured on
the Bloomsburg division of the Dela
ware, Lackawanna and Western rail
road, and three taken In tow while rush
ing a tomato can from behind the bill
boards at the cbrner of Penn avenue
and Vine street, occupied one tier of
cells. Two colored men arrested for
stealing chickens and about half a dozen
drunks occupied the other cells.
On the floor in various positions were
stretched seven lodgers of more or 1?m
dlsrespectable appearance, and In the
women's apartment, covering nearly all
the floor space unoccupied by cells, were
milk cans, boxes, wagon wheels and the
I like arrested by Btreet Commissioner
Kinsley on the charge of obstructing the
sidewalks or streets.
The milk cans, seven In number, were
picked up In front of Henry Hengler's
bakery on upper Lackawanna avenue.
The wagon wheels were removed from
vehicles that had been left standing out
all night. The offending owners will
have to pass before Commissioner
Kinsley and probably an alderman be
fore they can secure their wheels.
Among the other track brought In by
the street commissioner was a box pre
sumably filled with books which H. H.
Beldleman, of Spruce street, forgot to
take in before closing up last night. .
One of the prisoners in the drunk and
disorderly squad was a young man o'
warsman from the good ship "Massa
chusettts." He was bullying people
passing along lower Lackawanna ave
nue and about 9 o'clock ran afoul of a
"land lubber" who gave him a beating
and left him lying on the Bldewalk to be
picked up by Patrolman Day.
HOWHlfDOES it.
Professor Oentry Explains the Secret of
Animal Training Kindness and
Patience Necessary.
What person la Scranton who has
seen the wonderful entertainment pro
vided by the highly trained dogs, pon
ies and monkeys In the tent on Adams
avenue but wonders at the skill of the
trainer. Last evening a reporter of
The Tribune, bent on seeking Informa
tion regarding the education of ani
mals, called on Prof. Gentry, the train
er. He had Just finished the entertain
ment and was found In the dressing
room that Is attached to the large tent.
The professor was surrounded by his
nets and when asked to give some In
formation readily answered the ques
tions propounded.
"What are the essentlnls of animal
training?" said the trainer, repeating
the reporter's query. "Why kindness
and patience. Of course, I admit there
Is an art about It, but that is a natural
gift, yet the main factors are to make
the animal know you are his friend,
work with him patiently, show him Jus:
what you want him to ilo, and If you
persevere you are sure of success."
"Now here Is 'Barney.' one of the
first dogs that ever turned a somer
sault or walked a tight rope. It took
me six months of constant and patient
training to educate him to a state of
perfection so that ho could appear bo
fore an audience, yet when 1 know he
is the greatest canine acrobat beforr;
the public I feel well repaid for my
labor.
NO CUES OR MOTIONS.
"This pony here Is more Intelligent
than many human beings. Simply to
convince you that I do not use cues or
motions I will allow you to ask her the
questions." The professor handed the
reporter a list of names of the ponies
numbering twenty-nine. Taking the
list the reporter asked her:
"Do you know your name?"
The pony emphatically nodded
her
beautiful head signifying "Yes."
"Is It Snowdrop?" She shook her
head.
"Romeo?" Another shake.
"Dottle Dimple?" Again nay.
"Eureka?" More emphatically nay.
"Juliet?" and she nodded her head as
If to say, "Why, of course, that's my
name, and I am proud of it."
In this manner Juliet also told her
age.
"Which Is my favorite?" said Prof,
Gentry. "Well, that would be hard to
tell. I guess the truth of the matter Is
that I have none. I love them all, and
you can see by tho muvner they gather
around me and wish me to caress them
that they love me In return. I have
always been an Indulgent master to
them. They have the best of care and
food and are far happier than the ma
jority. "It took about seven months to bring
the drill ponies to a state of perfection
you witnessed tonight and I believe they
would do credit to the most exacting
of tacticians.
"Here are Mr. and Mrs. Snyder, the
two white dogs that wear clothes and
waltz so delightfully, and I firmly be
lieve they enjoy dancing more than the
majority of married couples. And here
is the little fellow that plays the baby.
I have been offered large sums of money
for him at different times, but neither
gold nor 'Bryan's free silver' could not
buy him. I Imported his parents from
Europe. They took the first prize at a
bench show of poodles held In Paris In
1890.
SIX IMTORTED PONIES.
"I Imported six of the ponies from the
Shetland Isles In 1S91. Barney, the ac
robatic, came over with the consign
ment as a gift. He Is a perfect speci
men of the Shetland poodk a Very rare
and valuuble species of canines.
"This trained monkey, 'China,' I
bought four years ago from an Importer
of animals In New York. At present he
Is sluvvlng how a circus rider should
deport himself. He was taught by see
ing the real rldere themselves at one of
the larger circuses. You have seen chil
dren who have visited a circus for the
first time; well, their delight Is as noth
ing compared to 'China's.' He went al
most wild and when the next day I
placed him upon a pony's back, took my
hj In hand nnd the little horse gal
loped around the ring, he seemed to
graso the idea and In three months he
would put old John Robinson to blush.
"One of the features of my .entertain
ment Is the leaping of tho greyhounds.
There they are, and a superb lot you'll
And them. 'Tulyetta' here Is the high
est leaper; 'Dude' makes the long Jump
through space, and as no one ever ac
cepted my challenge, I have every rea
son to believe him the champion long
distance leaper of the world.
"No, I shall never teach them to read
and write," laughingly answered the
professor to a question; "it would not do
for them to be able to know the amount
of praise you members of the press be
Btow upon them dally. I am afraid they
woutft strike."
So the Interview ended and Professor
Gentry saw his pets In their quarters for
the night.

SHOT IN HIS CHEST
AND SAID NOTHING
Plucky Polander Suffers a Bullet Wound
la Silence.
HE FINALLY FELL IN A SWOON
While Boarding a Street Car Ho Was
Arrested for Quarreling with the
Man Who, lie Later Said, Shot
llim-'Conveyed to the Lackuwanna
Hospital, Where the Bullet Wns
Removed.
Frank Oott. a Polander, experienced
the sensation of a bullet passing
through the tleshy part of his chest last
evening at about 8:15 o'clock while he
waa standing on the Delaware, Lacka
wanna and Western railroad tracks
near the Keyser Valley end of Luzerne
Btreet. Gott accuses Stanilaus Obleskl
of firing the shot.
The first that was known of tho affair
was when about fifteen minutes after
the shooting Gott and Obleskl were
boarding a Luzerne street car which
ended its trip at a distance of about 200
yards from the spot where Gott got
shot. When the two men reached the
car they were quarreling over some
thing. The spectators little knew that
one of the men bore a bullet wound.
During this quarrel Obleskl flour
ished a revolver. Constable Joseph
Dean, of the Twenty-first ward, at
tempted to take away the weapon.
Obleskl pointed the weapon at the
constable's face and threatened to
shoot. Finally, assisted by William
Heffron, Constuble Dean secured the
revolver and Obleskl was pulled upon
the car. The trip was made to Alder
man Moses' office on outh Main avenue,
near Eynon street, nnd Obleskl waa ar
raigned on the charges of carrying con
cealed weapons and threatening to kill.
WOUNDED MAN SWOONED.
During all this time, Gott, who had
accompanied his companion to the al
derman's office, had never once men
tioned the bullet wound on his chest.
While the two Polanders were seated,
side by side, In the office, the crowd
that had been attracted were surprised
to see Gott open his shirt front and
say: "Me shot." Then he swooned.
When he revived he said that Obleskl
had shot him while) they were standing
on the tracks. The announcement
made a stir. Obleskl was taken to the
West Side police station to await a
hearing this morning If Gott's condi
tion permits.
While In the alderman's office Gott's
wound was examined by Dr. J. J. Rob
erts. The physician found that the
wound wns not serious. The Injured
man was afterward removed to the
Lackawanna 'hospital In the ambul
ance. To a Tribune reporter last evening
Obleskl said that he did not shoot
Gott. He was not present at the time,
ho hald. Gott was standing on the
railroad as Obleskl was leaving his
house on Archzald hill. Obleskl heard
the shot from a distance and he hur
riedly approached the place where Gott
was on the railroad. Who It was that
did the shooting Obleskl did not know,
but he was positive that It was not
himself. He was Intoxicated but talked
like a well convinced man.
REMOVED THE BULLET.
Dr. Fish, who examined Gott at the
hospital, found that the ball had en
tered the muscular part of the breast
on the left side and had grazed the
chest bone near the first rib. The ball
was extracted by making an Inclnlon

Another Chapter la the Clash Between
Polanders and Their Priest,
Father Aust.
Twenty-one arrests were made last
night on warrants Issued by Alderman
C. C. Donovan, of the Twelfth ward,
against the members of St. Mary's
Polish congregation who dlrturbed the
services at the late mass last Sunday.

attempting to prevent Organist Los
nowskl from going to the organ loft to
play during mass. Patrolman Martin
Flaherty had to be called In to check
them from carrying out their purposes.
OTHERS ARRESTED.
Thirteen warrants were Issued for vio

Alderman Donovan put them under
bail for their appearance before him at
his law office. In the Republican build
ing, this evening at 8 o'clock. Some of
them had bondsmen and the others were
bound In their own recognizance to ap

Father Aust proposes to push the
cases to the full limit of the law. They,
on the other hand, are determined to
keep on until they succeed In obtaining
control of the financial management of
the parish or drive the pastor out.
DEMAND AN INVESTIGATION.
Phoenix Chemical Engine Company
M ant Charges Sifted.
At a meeting of the Phoenix Chemi
cal Engine company last night the fol
lowing resolutions were adopted:
Whereas, The newspapers of this city
and the mayor have announced certain
charges, not only against tho permanent
men it this company, but in a general
way against the whole company, the
charges being that liquor has been regu
larly brought to the house and that "wo
men" have been allowed to visit there.
Therefore be !t
He solved, That this company, as such,
demand a public investigation, and that
the Informant be made known.
Resolved, That these resolutions be pub
lished In the dally papers and a copy of
the same be sent to the mayor.
Attest Charles E. Becker, Secretary.
One of the members of the company
stated last night that while they do
not care to pass upon the motives
which Drought about the prosecution of
Permanent Men Campbell and Tillman,
they feel that if these men were of
the same political faith as the present
municipal powers, their faults would
not be so readily detected or at least
so widely advertised. "If," he added,
"the Democrats want to make room
for some of the thousands who were
promised positions In the last cam
paign, they should not allow their des
peration to lead them into the repre
hensible practice blackening a man's
reputation simply to cause his removal."
AMUSEMENTS.
The production of "Sowing the Wind"
was the source of much discussion by
the press and public. Reviewing It, one
crltio claimed that the author, Mr. Syd
ney Grundy,. In the first act raises the
question: "May one who Is the off
spring," In the language of Mr. Brab
azon, " of a love thait comes as Btraight
from God as death does," the illegiti
mate daughter of a mother afterwards
notorious for infamy, who has pre
served her Integrity under many temp
tations, and who by talent and ability
has made for herself a popular and
useful life, may such a one marry a
young man of wealth and high Boclal
position without violation of ethics or
the code of current human conduct?
This strongest of melodramas will be
produced at 'the Academy of Music next
Monday afternoon and nighty
a
"Garry Owen," a beautiful play of the
Emerald Isle with romance, love, chiv
alry and heroism, will be presented at
the Frothingham next Monday after
noon and evening. The following ex
tract Is from the New York Sun: "The
Garry Owen of Tony Farrcll Is an ar
tistic piece of wark, suggestive of Cap
tain Letterblair as portrayed by E. H.
Sothern, has surrounded himself with
a good company, almost every member
being a vocalist of more than ordinary
merit. 'Gary Owen' Is a good looking,
graceful young man, who would gal
vanize into some semblance of life, al
most any kind of a young Irishman,
and ait lust night's performance, clearly
had the sympathy of his audfence.
Tony Farrell Is a comedian of unusual
merit, his singing captivated the au
dience. We pronounce a grAt success
for Mr. Farrell and his new play."
a
Lillian Lewis and a strong company
will appear at the Academy of Music
next Tuesday In tho new eomvdy drama
"An Innocent Sinner," by Lawrence
Marston and Lillian Lewis. This Is
strictly an American production, a
study of character life in the regions
of the Blue Ridge Mountains country
of Tennessee. It Is a simple story full
of true affairs of the sturdy but quaint
people of that section who have fur
nished so much that It Is strange, yet
lifelike, to fiction to legend and to
actual history. In the supporting com
pany are Eleanor Carey, Maud LeRoy,
