WEST SIDE EVENTS.
Keyser Valley Reijon Becoming Nolor
ions for Its LawlessnessTwo Hun
firiaos Brutally Assaulted.
T nn'taoonooa la hppnmln? more And
more general In tho Keyser Valk-y re
gion. There is a (taut? of toURh young
men back there and they seem to have
picked out the foreign element an es
pecial objects of their thuKery. Karly
yesterday morning Peter Patrick and
John Lucas, two Hungarians, whose
homes are on Continental hill, were
waylaid and assaulted by these men on
the highway near the Hampton switch,
Keyser Valley. While the two Hun
garians were held to the ground the
thugs robbed them of t'i and $K each.
For several hours Patrick lay on the
road In an unconscious condition from
the effects of a blow on the head.
At daybreak the men went to Dr.
Halbert's office, where the wound on
Patrick's head was dressed. Dr. Hal
bert says that the wound is not dan
gerous. Lucas was roughly handled,
but shows no severe hurt. The three
highwaymen are not known. County
Detective Leyshon Is at work on the
case. Lucas and Patrick were about
the streets yesterday.
Michael iallagher was assaulted
Thursday night in Keyser Valley. He
was walking: down the road near tho
Hyde Park breaker, when two men
sprang upon him. He was laid uncon
scious to the road by a blow from a
club in the hands of ov of the men.
Thev took from him esmall sum of
money. Oallaiilier recognized one of
his assailants as Michael Whulen. He
does not know the other.
Sunday night Stanley Doer, a Hun
garian, was struck by a billiard cue
In the saloon of Pu trick McOovern, on
Luzerne street. It was at first thought
that Doer would die. but yesterday and
last evening he Improved so greatly
that the physicians now say there is'
no danger. J nines Pacey, Patrick Gal
lagher and Martin McN'leolas, three
young men, were arrested for the as
sault. They entered bail in the sum of
$l.ltni each to appear at court.
McNIormlas, the young man men
tioned in the Doer assault, on the same
nlglifc beat his mother at their home
on Luzerne street. He was held In
bail.
STARXKUS HAVE OONE.
George N. Starner left town some
Dine ago ami when he left the town he
rft many anxious people In the town.
Jomewhcre out in New York state Stur
aer Is supposed to have relatives. He
failed the jilace Long Kddy and he
claimed that lish were as numerous
there as creditors are here. While Star
ner was a-fishitig out there his wire
was here n-tlshlng all portable things
from the Starner photographic apart
ments and placing them in trunks. She
then sent the trunks to the lone fisher
man of Lonjr Kddy. The trunks went
individually, not In a bunch; this would
excite suspicion. Starner sent word t
Hyde Park that he was suffering a bad
attack of rheumutlsm. This was an
awful blow to his wife, who Immediate
ly closed up shop and went out to New
"York to nurso her husband. It Is n note
worthy fact that Mrs. Starner did not
leave for the fisherman's side until
nearly all "f the household valuables
had gone on befoie via the trunk line.
And when people nwoke n few weeks
ago they found this hamlet Sturnerless.
Everybody made a crab for what was
left In the photographer's apartments.
There was not much only a few pic
tures. Yestelduy afternoon Deputy
(Sheriff Price conducted u sale, and
$3!)..10 was realized. The most
valuable thing auctioned off was a
handsome crayon portrait of Lieuten
ant of Police Thomas Williams, of this
side. Patrolman Kiah l'eters. Thomas
Cofigrove, Mary J. Hoylan and others
purchased the picture for $1.1:1. They
presented it to the lieutenant and then
sent in a bill to Mr. Williams for $2. The
picture now hangs In tho police station.

number of photographs and is busy giv
ing them away to the people whose like

THE AMERICAN GIRL
Large Momber of Elks Saw the Drama
at the Frothingham.
"The American Girl." H. Oratton
Donnelly's latest dramatic effort, was
produced at the Frothingham last night
by A. J. Scammon's company. It was
fc-lk s night and the members of that
order with their wives nn1 Imlv frlAnds
were present In large numbers as the 1
guests of Manager Kerr.
The drama is in four acts, one laid In
Virginia, two In London and one in
Scotland. The action revolves about
the adventures of a true-hearted Amer
ican girl who secretly marries an Eng-
gllsh artist, titled but poor. A series of
unfortunate circumstances separates
thetn for nine years and then comes a
happy reuniting.
The leading comedy role Is assumed
by Bob Graham, always a favorite with
Scranton theatregoers. Other members
of the company who won the regard of
last night's audience were Ida Bell,
Bella Vivian, John Fenton, Frank X.
Hope and J. Irving Southard. The
drama will be repeated this afternoon
and evening.
CAMILLE AT THE ACADEMY.
Mr. and Mrs. 4i rand in Have Another

. Mr. and Mrs. Grandin hail the mis
fortune, speaking from a financial
standpoint, of delineating Dumas' won
derful story "Cainille" at a time when
the town was waiting with bated
breath for the bill of the next night
"Hogan's Alley." It is hard on the
"legitimate" but taste is taste.
The small house that did attend
"Canillle" saw an excellently well por
trayed drama. "Canillle" Is a play that
has to be played well and the Grandln's
did it. Their supporting cast is not as
we'l fitted for this particular play as
they might be. The superb work of
Mrs. I'll u ml In in the very trying role,
however, made up for every little de
ficiency. FUNERAL OF MISS W EISENFLUH.

AMATEUR BASE BALL.
.Mnnnger ol' the Taylor Itcds Makes a
Denial.
Sporting Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: In Thursday's Issue of your paper
was printed a statement to the effect that
the South Side Sunsets defeated the Tay
lor Ke.ls by a score of U to G on the Hath
ult. Now as the item Is a direct false
hood, I wish to enter an emphatic contra
diction to it. In the tl ret place, nt the
game Tuesday, there were but three of
the Reds present. I informed the manager
of the Sunsets of that fact, and he de
sired me to pick a cluli from the spectators
present. I dirt so with the understanding
between us that they were not playing
the Reds. At the end of the sixth Inning
the score was -., In favor of the picked
club, und according to the rules of base
ball that was the correct score of tho
Kline, ns the Sunsets batted their half of
thw seventh, and the picked club did not,
thereby leaving the score as It was at tha
end of the lust even Inniuiis pluved. Your
respectfully, Evan G. Watklns,
Manager Taylor UeUs.

AMATEUR BALL NOTES
V. L. B. If a runner Is on third, two
are out, a safe hit Is made, tho man comes
In from third, the hitter falls to touch
first und the ball is fielded to lirst and the
hitter declared out-In that case the run
counts. The question Is not a new one.
It is answered on the same basis ns would
be In the case If the hitter touched first
ran beyond the base and was tagged out
on the line between first and second. Ill
the lirst case the hitter was entitled to
lirst on the hit. lie Is credited with a
lilt and the hit, not the play, scored the
runner. Sporting Ed.
