MILLION patriotic voters have rec

FATHER MELLEY HOME.
Returned from Europe Unexpectedly.
Trip Has Benefitted Him Greatly.
His Travels on the Continent.
Rev. E. J. Melley, pastor of St. John's
church, South Side, returned Saturday
morning from Europe after an absence
of tour months, His appearance would
Indicate that his Journey greutly bene
fitted his health. He left home on May
27l h.
His congregation waB not expecting
him for a week or two yet, and ar
rangements were In progress for a
suitable reception on his home com
ing, hut Father Melley was not anx
ious for any display und he came un
announced. He wa:i busy last evening,
however, at his residence on Pittston
avenue receiving his parishioners as
they came to greet him and convey to
him their assurances of being very
glad to see him back attain. They do
not propose to be deprived of testify
ing their esteem and during the wuc-k
a reception will be held.
Father Melley spent six weeks In Ire
land and England, and the rest of the
time on the continent, touring through
Holland, France, flermany, Switzer
land and Italy. He was at the Vatican
and read mass in the futacomhs.
Though he was away four months he
was not long In any place, being travel
ing the most of the time, and he felt
like Hpenking only in a general way of
the places and people.
He was delighted with the grand
scenery of Ireland, and was impressed
with the depopulating effect of coer
cion and landlordism. The scenery of
the Western mountains of Ireland with
its evergreen beuuty is. surpassed only
by the sublime cliffs of Switzerland.
Father Melley wob at I.ourdesf France.
This is a small town in the Pyrenees
mountains of about 7,000 population, It
Is famous as n place of pilgrimage. The
Interest centers in a grotto where there
is a spring of pure water. It is related
that in 1858 the Blessed Virgin appeared
to a peasant girl named Bernadette
Sotibirous and disclosed to her the
miraculous properties of the spring.
Thousands from all over the world,
particularly from the surrounding
countries, visit this spring to henellt
their health, and there are reports of
many miraculous cures. On the site of
which the spring Is a center there Is a
church which It cost several million
dollars to build. Mass is being cele
brated daily from morning to night In
one part or another of this church.
Forty priests can read mass therein
at the same time. Father Melley said It
would take volumes to describe what
Is seen at Lntirdes.
His visit to Home was not a lengthy
one, and he had the great pleasure of
meeting, the Holy Father, Leo XIII,
who received him kindly. Father Melley
came back to Liverpool and sailed
from there on Sept. 27, arriving in
New York on Friday and In Scran
ton on Saturday morning. After a visit
to Might Reverend Ulimop O'Hara at
the episcopal residence on Wyoming
avenue, he was driven home and was
happy to be back among his people once
again,
LIFE IN HOGAN'S ALLEY.
Scrnntonitins Introduced to a Stage
Version of It Saturday.
"Hogan's Alley" was so well received
at the Acadmy of Music Saturday af
ternoon and evening that a return date
has been secured for next Saturday
when It will again be procured both af
ternoon and evening. It would be well
for those who want to see and hear
the queer "goings on" In "Hogan's Al
ly" to be on hand early at those per
formances. There will be a rush.
"Hogun's Alley" Is a picture of life
In a Mew York street more or less
faithfully portrayed and wag construct
ed from the Inspiration furnished by
Artist Outcult's drawings of Hogan's
alley and Us inhabitants.
The Yellow Kid is very much In evi
dence nnd It Is mere Justice to him to
say that he is one of tho most versatile
boys on the stage today. His name is
Dick Gardner and he can dance, swing
a baton, play the mandolin and act the
mischievous and extremely tough
Yellow Klil in a way that always calls
forth applause.
He Is not the only clever member of
the company by any means, for in the
cast are John K. Leonard, Barney Oll
more, John (lardner, Dan Gardner, Jo
seph J. Conlon, Minn nnd Lillian Shir
ley and several others who contribute
largely to the evening's entertain
ment. Saturday night's audience was as
large as the Academy could contain.
THE NECKS WERE TOO WIDE.
While tho Bodices Were Not All in
Proportion.
Attorneys Richard H. Holgate, II. A.
Zimmerman, and W. Oaylord Thomas,
Hitting as a board of arbitrators Satur
day In the arbitration room of the court
house, heard the suit of S. S. Herman
against B. Levi and Nathan Ooodman.
Attorney W. J. Tracy represented the
plaintiff, and Attorney John F. Kcragg
the defendants.
The suit is to recover a check of $G0.
Charles Wartowsky, of Penn avenue,
learned that a merchant named Kiple
had a Job lot of boy's waists for sale
at a bargain, 340 dozen of them for $ii0.
He told Mr. Levi about it and per
suaded him tn buy. Mr. Levi (fid not
have the ready cash and went to Mr.
Uoodman, who gave him a check for $00
with which the waists were bought.
When they were delivered it was
found that the necks were wide enough
for Grover Cleveland, while the bo
dices were about large enough to fit
the "Yellow Kid" In Hogan's Alley.
Before the goods were returned Mr.
Kiple endorsed the check to Mr. Der
mnn, but before it was presented at the
bank for payment an order had been
given to the .cashier to dishonor it.
The suit Is' brought on the ground
that Mr. Derman was an Innocent
holder.
IT WAS A FRIENDLY SUIT.
Alderninn Howe Hears a Sort of Case
Stated, Saturday Lnst.
What might be properly termed a
case-stated was submitted to Alder
man Howe, Saturday. The parties to
the suit were E. E. Miller, of Carbon
dale, and John Seism, of this city.
Miller engaged Seism to do some pros
pecting for him and when the time for
settlement came they could not agree
on the amount due. Being warm per
sonal friends they wished to avoid the
possibility of an estranging dispute and
so decided to submit their differences
to the wise man ot the Seventeenth
ward.
The alderman heard the explanations
made for Mr. Seism by himself and At
torney C. L. Hawley and the pleadings
of Mr. Miller, who refrained from en
gaging a lawyer, and after figuring
and compounding for half an hour or
so, gaVe Judgment for Mr. Seism In the
full amount of his claim. The litigants
parted good friends
