The tres'iass suit of ShiKRic Kozclle BKulnst J. At. Athertun, both of the North Knd. was not put on trial yester day in court, for the reason that un important witness living' in Philadel phia could not Ket here, and the -ase went over until next term.. In the case of Adam Brooks UKuiust T. I.. Sanseiiliuuxh for a milk bill, the. jury fiiunil a verdict for the plaintiff in the sum of Jl-il.iiu witli Interest from April I, i:i4. A case which was listened to with Kivwl interest was that in which Harry .!. Spencer, of I uiiinioii'. was pluiiitilt'. and Albert I'onrud defendant. At torney K. Newcolllb lciU'esellt eil Air. Spem-r-r ami Attorney license l. Taylor Mr. I'oiirad. A lew years UK" Mr. Spencer was reudlnir over S i tln Life, a publication devoted to the Inter ests of sooi tsineii, he saw un "ail" where a man in the ue.-t hud a valuable pup for sale, one with u (rood pedigree and of a Mock that had become toiled. lie hoiie.ht the pop. paying about 17 for It und the cost of expies-iintr It lo re whs about mole. In time- the li K tic velopeil into a vnluuLde acouisiti-ni to Atr. Silencer's kennel. bdh for Its value as u hunter ami for hrevdiiiK purposes, on .lune N. I MM the ilu was shot and killed by Air. I'onrad. The valut- of it was lixed ut from $,',n to $ UK). Tllul'tillT IT AlAI.M'IOl'S. Mr. Silencer ulleeid that tlie defend ant killed tlie iIok mulicloiudy. and introduced evidence to prove that it was not the first one he had killed, in tending; to show that he hud a wanton and reckless disposition to use his kiiii unon the dous of the ueltrhhcirliiicul if it suited his fancy to kill any of them that crossed his path. Air. I'onrud H defense wus thnt he had killed Air. Spem-er's dor accident ally. He said he owned a held of jye which was a rendezvous or nil the sparrows of Dunmore, and to rid the place of them, he was wont to fro out with his shot tfUti and lire at them. This day he lireel at a tlix-k of birds on the fence and killed the dotf. which hap pened 'to be rambling- within range id' the gun Just at that time. The plaintiff undertook to show that Mr. Conrad did not do it accidentally by putting two witnesses on the stand, carpenters who were working: near Mr. Conrad's field of rye that day. Both men said they say the defendant and the doff, and from their stories the Jury mitfht infer that Mr. Conrad could see the dot? because they could see him audit In the same sweep of vision. More over, Air. Conrad had not gone to see Air. Spencer either 10 explain or apol ogize. XKWCOAIB WAS EI.OQl'KNT. In ni-KUlni? to the Jury Air. Newcomb was very eloquent in defense of Uogs. Outside of the value that a man places on a dog because he wants it for hunt ing iurposes there Is ah attachment, almost an endearment between the creature and master which is hard to measure in dollars andi cents. Next to the horse, said Air. Neweomb, the dos comes in the scale of usefulness to man and he added, "the more I see of men the more I admire dogs." .Jiultre Kdwards In charging- the Jury titld them not to let the subject over which the suit was brouirht have any prejudice one way or another. The luws of this state make a dog- as much a man's property as a horse or a row. If they believed that Mr. Conrad killed the dog wilfully then he ought to jiay damages, and the amount was to be lixed as near what a fair and sensible value of the dog was. The Jury retired at 3 o'clock and at 4.30 brought In a verdict in favor of Mr. Spencer for $:t. The next case called was one In which, strange to pay, the city of Scranton was plaintiff. Phoebe and Samuel Cress, of lirnmley. avenue, were de fendants. City Solicitor Torrey and Attorney C. August Hattenberg' repre sented the city and Attorneys I. H. Burns nnd Charles R Olver, the de fendants. The suit was to collect a sewer assessment, but after it was started It developed thnt the Hen against the property had run out before the beginning of the suit and a verdict was directed by JinTge Kdwards In favor of the defendant. ACTION IN ASSUA1PSIT. Next the assumpsit suit of the TJ. N. AlcCoy Glass company against the Lackawanna Hardware company, of this city, was called for trial. Attor ney Charles H. Welles represents the plaintiff and Attorneys W. A. Wilcox und U. H. Patterson reoresept the de fendant. A Jury was selected and the case will go on this niirniiiK. The Hardware company niacin n con tract with tlie Class company for two cur loads of glass with tlie privilege or live und when one car load was received the price of glass went up per cent, no. I tlie defendant didn't take any more of it. WINT0N SCHOOLS CL0SLD. right of Hie Kiviil Hoard llu cVii lailcd Serious Itesnlls. A queer muddle exists at present in Winton borough which has cuiised the closing of all 'but two or the public! schools. The teachers became uncer tain us to whether they would receive their pay nnd quit tlie school room. The school board is divided and the court is now trying to decide upon the validity of tlie election of u certain member. At the last election the returns were disputed and in one of the districts both Mr. Taylor and Mr. l''letiher claimed to be elected.

KNOX, THE HATTER, COMPLAINS. i Wants to Have a Heed Declared Null and Void. K M. Knox, of New York, maker of the famous Knox hat, represented by Attorneys Jessup &,Jessup, began an equity suit In court 'yesterday against Attorney T. V. Powderly and M. P. Mc Cann. The bill states that on August IB. 1S96, Mr. McCann transferred by deed to Mr. Powderly his interest in the pro perty known as No. 18 Lackawanna avenue. On September 1 he made an assignment of all his property to Attor ney J J. J. Murray, and it wan inven toried and appraised and found to be worth 3.uu0. Mr. Kmm claim that the transfer of No. 18 was made for the purpose of hindering Mr. McCann'a creditors.. ; It Is charged, too, that the transfer to Mr. Powderly was without an ade quate consideration, and therefore a petition Mays that the court issue an injunction restraining Mr. Powderly from disposing of the proiierty to any other tierson and that the deed be de clared void. BILLIARD CUE WAS USED. Stanley Doer Received What May Prove to Be Fatal Injuries Three Young Men Are Under Arrest.

A stage adaptation or Dumas' story, "The .Man in the -iron Musk," was glvt'n at the Aeariemy of Music last night by Donald Jtohertson and Allss lit. in. Ion Douglas bud the members of their euiu pany. Air. Robertson wus also the adapter. He is an actor or mucn nevei-nens. though a Utile too studied in his method. Ills work in the dual role of Louis XIV, King of I'" i a nee. and Gaston, the king's twin brother, the man In the Iron musk, was very praiseworthy and won frequent applause frum tin ratber small audience. Miss Douglas in the role of Murle D'Os tanges hIso came In for favors of the au dience. Ber performance in the third act stamped her as an emotional actress of much it til I i 1 V and the difllciilt scenes In the fourth she gavo with much delicacy und discrimination. The support given these two artists was not all that might be desired, but the performance taken as a whole merited a much larger audience than saw it last night. AMUSEMENTS. Elmer 10.
