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. H. C. AND L CO. INTERESTS.

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. Scranton Business College.
