TWO BOY RUNAWAYS.
Left Scranton for Baltimore, but Were
Caught in Wllkes-Barre.
"Dear Mamma: I have gone to Bal
timore; will write you when I get there.
HARRY."
That was the note left by one of two
13-year-old runaways who left the city
at daylight yesterday, but were caught
a few hour later by the police at
Wllkes-Barre In the Lehigh Valley de
pot. The boys were Harry McLain,
son of William McLain, a commission
broker, who Hvcr at 507 Washington
avenue, and Arthur Walter, son of Mi
chael Walter, a machinist, whose home
is at 517 Olive street.
It was about 6:30 o'clock that Mrs.
McLain found the note on the dining
room table. She awakened her hus
band, who soon ascertained that the
Walter lad, too, was missing. The
father hurried to the Delaware and
Hudson station and there learned that
two boys answering the description of
the runaways had left on the 6:30 train
for Wllkes-Barre. A telegram to the
Wllkes-Barre police brought about the
capture.
The McLains came here from Balti
more recently. Harry didn't like
Scranton and that's why he wanted to
leave. He hod a savings bnnk contain
ing about $l'0, and It was with this
capital that the boys began their Jour
ney. The Walter boy had told his par
ents the night preceding his departure
that he was going to sell paper In the
morning.

ROMANCE, NOT TRAGEDY.
It Ending Was Mack Happier Than
the Beginning.
A romance In which a Scranton girl
appears was revealed In yesterday'
New York Journal. That paper con
tained a story to the effect that In the
announcement that Miss Kate Fanning
was married to Policeman Edward
O'Brien was contained the sequel to a
romance which a few weeks ago threat
ened to end In a tragedy. The wedding
was - performed In Ht. Augustine'
church. One Hundred and Sixty-seventh
street and Franklin avenue, Thursday
afternoon, after which there was a re
ception at the home of Mrs. Albert Wil
son, an auni of the bride, who live at
No. l.ulfl Washington avenue, and is the
wife of a wealthy rope manufacturer.
It .was ea July, a that Mlaa Fanning
attempted her own life by drinking car
bolic acid. She had become Infatuated
wltht Policeman O' Hi leu, who U much
older than she. and is attached to the
Morrlsania station.
She drank the acid on the street, and
was taken in an ambulance to the Ford
ham hospital, where at first her life was
despaired of. '
The girl, who Is but seventeen and is
the daughter of George Fanning, a
North End miner, met the policeman
tor the first time by accident She had
asked him the way to some address for
which she was looking, and he had
directed her how to reach it She be
came captivated at once, and although
her aunt, at whose house she was stop
ping, was not pleased at the manner in
which the acquaintance was made, her
words had no effect upon the girl.
AMUSEMENTS.
"He that soweth the wind, shall reap
the whirlwind," has been the theme of
many a sermon from the sacred desk,
but the terrible truth of the text ha
never been more vividly set forth than
In Sydney Grundy' great play. "Sow
ing the Wind," which will be seen at
the Academy of Music Monday. Mr.
Grundy would have more fitly named
his play had he galled It "Reaping the
Whirlwind." for It is the harvest time
of sin that he depicts. An old man
stands face to face with a lovely wo
man, the child of his own youth, whose
mother he had betrayed and forsaken.
Their relationship to each other Is un
known to both. On that situation rests
the play, which Is produced by an ex
cellent company under the direction of
Julius Cohn and which Is fitted out
with superb scenery and costumes.
On Monday afternoon and evening,
Tony Farrell will appear at the Froth
ingham in a new play, "Garry Owen,"
which Is termed an Irish comedy dra
ma, and has an unusually interesting
story running through It. It la entirely
unlike the ordinary run of IrUh comedy
dramas, as the author was particularly
careful to avoid utilizing any of the
old conventional and threadbare fea
tures, which generally pervades Irish
plays. In order to jxrtray the action
of the play In a proper manner the
management has provided the com
pany with new and elegant scenery,
among which are a number of me
chanical and sensational stage effects.
The Illuminated exterior of an Irish
church with Its cathedral organ and
church choir of nine trained voices Is
generally conceded to be one of the
most beautiful scenes of any of the
many realistic sensational features
which, hns been seen on the American
stage. The play Is Interpreted by a
carefully selected company of artists
who have been chosen for their indi
vidual capabilities.
"Simplicity Is one of the great charms
of 'An Innocent Sinner,' " the new
comedy drama by Lawrence Marston
and Lillian Lewis, and In which Miss
Iewls, America's most Interesting ac
tress, will appear at the Academy of
Music September 8. The play Is a plain
tale of the lives and loves of the hill
folks of Tennessee. Fifteen charac
ters, each a strong type, tell the story
to which a novelty is given by the In
genious weaving In of a hypnotic
theme, about which the more Intense
dramatic periods of the drama turn.
There Is no straining for effect. Lil
lian Lewis Is supported by a carefully
selected company, headed by Lawrence
Stanley, and Including Eleanor Carey,
Maud LeRoy, Ida Burrows, Mrs. Frank
A. Tannehill, David M. Murray, J. P.
Keefe, Edwin Brown, Frank Calburt,
Frederick Lauder and C. H. Kittredge.
Manager Tuthlll, recognizing the op
portunities offered by the locale of the
tdory, has equipped "An Innocent Sin
ner" as a, lavish and beautiful scenic
production.
At Davis' theatre May Smith Rob
bins will appear on Monday, matinee
and night in "Little Trlxle." The pro
duction is replete with specialty num
bers In which Miss Robbins I the cen
tral figure. Her personal attractive
ness and her talented singing and
dancing have before won her plaudits
In Davis' theatre. She baa a support
ing company of considerable merit.
THAT WEST MOUNTAIN BABE.
It la Accepted ns a Charge on the
Poor District.
At the meeting of the poor board yes
terday, by request of the Sisters of St.
Joseph's Foundling Home, the babe
found on the West Mountains was re
ceived as a charge on the district. It
was the intention of the Sisters to have
the child Indentured to the South Side
couple who are willing to adopt it, but
they neglected to state this and for
economy's sake Mrs. Swan's proposition
that it be sent to the Hillside Home was
adopted.
It developed that after the meeting
that the child is now "out on trial"
with the people who propose to adopt
It and for the present It will not be
sent to the poor farm. At the next
meeting It will likely be indentured to
Its South Side admirers.
Despite its terrible experience the
child Is said now to be a fine healthy
boy.
One of tho several applicants for out
door relief was Mrs. Catherine Samp
son, colored, whose husband recently
deserted her, and who, she has learned,
Is living with a white woman In Cort
land. N. Y. She was allowed 15 a month.
Dr. Strang, the resident physician,
reported he wrote 416 prescriptions dur
ing the month, and that on September
1, there were 184 patients remaining In,
the asylum. Superintendent Beemer's
heport showed that there were 162 in the
almshouse. During the month 27 were
admitted, 11 were discharged and two
died.

WHY.
do you persist in using
those old chipped dishes?
You probably never knew
you could buy a 114
piece Haviland & Co.
French China Decorated
Dinner Set for $34.00,
an open stock pattern at
that. You need not buy
the whole setfor a small
family you could possi
bly select what you need
tor $15.00 or less. Havi
land China is cheapest
because it is tough and
when chipped does not
turn black. There are a
great many people who
are replacing ' broken
dishes from our open
stock patterns. It pays
them, it will pay you.
