HE LURED 1HEM;
SHE FLEECED THEM
A Sort of Badger Game That Was
Broken Up Yesterday.
VICTIM WHO WAS AN EXCEPTION
James Shcridau, u Jail Bird, and the
Notorious Emily Uriflin Were Doing
a Metropolitan Turn on Frnnklin
AvrnucCotniryniau from Clark's
Summit Kisks Notoriety and (iocs
In to Recover His 20.
James Sheridan nnd Emily Griffin,
two well known characters In police
circles, were arrested yesterday for
working a sort of badger game.
The Gritfin woman had rooms at 213
Franklin avenue. Sheridun was her
copper. Their game was to allure a
drunken or unsophisticated man to the
house and rob him, if the woman could
induce him to remain over night. The
victim in such cases will as a rule suf
fer his loss rather than expose tjlmself.
Thus the operators or the game expect
to escape punishment.
One of the victims of the Sherldan
Griilin ga'ie, however, was uu excep
tion to the rule. He Is Arthur Lumbert
an old farmer from Clark's Summit.
Lumbert was In the city last Friday
und got pretty full. Sheridan run across
him und enticed him to the Grittin wo
man's apartments. When he woke up
in the morning his wad amounting to
$20 was missing. The woman denied,
of course, that she knew anything
about it and suggested that the mnn
wlm brought him there might have
robbed him. When he sobered up he
thought the whole thinu all over and
cume to the conclusion that he had
been the victim of a game In which
both his friends of Friday night fig
ured. He placed the matter in Alderman
Millar's hands and yesterday, nfter the
otllcers of his court had secured con
vincing evidence, he hud the pair ar
rested. They were held In $501 each
for court and In default were com
mitted. Sheridan Is the individual who, with
Thomas Fltzpntrick, went to the peni
tentiary for assaulting and attempting
to rob old Patrick Wynn, about eight
years ago. They were members of the
then famous dead line gang of Dodge
town arid for this, ns much as for the
Immediate crime, they were given ten
years apiece by Judge Hand. Through
the efforts of Attorney Richard J.
Henmlsh, Sheridan's sentence was cut
down nnd on this account and for rea
son of good behavior he only served
live years nnd seven months. Fltzpat
rlck was released last April, after serv
ing a little-over eight years.
The Griffin woman is one of the fre
quent sojourners at the county jail,
for thirty- day stretches. She claims
that she and Sheridan were married In
Wllliamsport recently, but he will not
admit it.

SUIT OVER A NOTE.
Xorth End Neighbors in Court on Ac
count of a Dispute as to Time.
In civil court yesterday only one case
was tried. W. 11. Anderson was plain
tiff nnd It W. Woodworth, defendant.
Attorneys John F. Seragg and C. W.
Dawson appeared for the former and
Atlorneys Hulslander & Vosburg for
the latter. The parties live in the North
End, and the suit Is to recover $400
with interest on u note.
There wns a dispute nsto the time
In which the note should become due.
The defendant said the agreement was
that it should be paid ut the end of a
year, and the plaintiff said It was at
the end of twenty days. The defend
ant claims that the clause, "twenty
days" was interpolated In the note
nfter it was signed. The jury retired
at 4 o'clock to deliberate upon a ver
dict. loca'l penciliwgs.
Boarders ut the St. Charles hotel and
some of the friends of Dr. P. 11. Kear
ney, whose ollice Is at 3!0 Wyoming
avenue, have been mystified and enter
tained several times recently by the
physician's exhibition of his mesmeric
and hypnotic nower before small nnd
select audiences. Dr. Kearney has for
some time been a rinse student of mes
merism and his research and study was
shared by several brother physicians.
He soon became very adept In exercis
ing hypnotic Inllucnce. but refrained
from making his attainment known ex
cept to n few personal friends.
Recently he has given a number of
private exhibitions in the parlors of the
St. Charles hotel, where he boards, per
forming nil the feats of the several pro
fessional hypnotists who have appeared
in Scranton. These gatherings have
nearly always included a scattering of
professional men, physicians, clergy
men and lawyer' and ladies. Nearly
always the subjects are selected from
the spectators.
An Illustration of Dr. Kearney's pro
ficiency wns a wonder In its way. On
this particular night while he had a
young man mentally and physically
under his control nnd asleep. Dr.
O'Mnlley. of Spruce street, asked If the
heart beat could be Influenced. Dr.
Kearney said he had never made the
experiment, but thought It could be
done.
The mtlse was first tested and regis
tered 114 heart beats per minute. Dr.
Kearney approached the subject and
placing his hand on the young man's
hend quietly asked that the pulsation
be slower. Within a few seconds the
beat was 104 per minute nnd from that
It was reduced to 96 and then to 88.
Another test, which wns but a sam
ple of many others, was the display of
control over the subject while the oper
ator wns downstairs in the hotel oflice.
One of the physicians present suggest
ed it while standing with Dr. Kearney
where the subject, who was In a deep
slumber, could not overhear. Dr. Kear
ney approached the sleeping person and
exclaimed In an ordlnnry tone of voice,
"I want you to remain here until you
get orders from me." He then left the
parlors and went down stairs, accom
panied by severnl of those present. At
the desk he quietly requested that the
subject come to him and the request
was followed in a moment by the ap
pearance of the subject. Scarcely nn
evening passes without a request by
some of the physician's friends for one
of those purlor "seances." There wns
one last night In which the subjects
were selected from among the pnrty of
actors, commercial travelers and hotel
boarders in the room.
Bloomer girls will not appenr as wait
resses In the restaurant addition now
being built at Jordan's St. Cloud Hotel,
corner of Wyoming avenue nnd Lin
den street. Whether Iroprietor Jor
dan really Intended having girls adorn
ed in baggy bloomercttes or not is a
question, but it makes no difference
anyhow; the report got abroad that the
new creature was to chase griddle
cakes, coffee, "sinkers" and creamy
oyster stews about the place and that
wns enough to set the chappies talking.
Some Scranton young women out of
employment heard of It and they .were
not daunted by the rumor that the
bloomer girls were to be imported from
New York city. Fifteen or twenty of
the Scranton article called on Proprie
tor Jordan during Munday and yes
terday. There were lean young women
and fat ones, homely ones und ones
fair to gaze upon. Most of them reuched
the pluee by sauntering uneasily along
Linden street, and nfter furtive
glances east and west, milking a hur
ried bolt through the side door. Only n
few had nerve enough to plainly state
their business; the majority irsked If
they could procure employment ns
waitresses. More than a few heaved
sighs of relief when told that only men
would be engaged for the new restau
rant, but there were some pretty young
misses who showed disuppnintment
when It was made known that there
was no demand for girls who would
appear in bloomers.
One girl from the West Side had her
bloomers, or some one's else, with her
and was ready to begin work right then
and there. She was only 17 yeurs old,
and so Proprietor Jordan begged her
to be seated and began to lecture her
In a kindly way. He had got nicely
started In his talk when she arose unil
llounced herself out of the place ex
claiming before she banged the door be
hind her:
"Well, gracious sakes; lis a pity If
us girls can't earn an honest living.
One of us In bloomers would attract
more customers to the place than a
thousand men in pants."
It was nfter this episode that a sign
rending "No Help is Wanted" wns
tacked on the side door and orders were
Issued to deny admittance to any young
women wearing uneasy expressions or
carrying suspicions looking bundles.
Sheriff demons received n court
record from Scotland yesterday, and
uny one who objects to the whereases,
herelnbefores and herelntobefores In
the legal forms of this country ought
to rend It. It Is a summons or service
to be made on one Archibald Morton,
tiow a resident of Scranton. who, about
eight years ago, deserted his wife. Mar
garet Sinclair Morton, In Edinburgh
town, Scotland. It starts out this way:
"Victoria by the Grace of God of the
t'nited Kingdom of Great Britain nnd
Ireland Queen Defender of the Faith."
Then it goes along und tells what it
purports in language and orthography
avvny back before Chaucer's time.
The sheriff, If he finds Mr. Morton,
will serve d copy of it on him, nnd cer
tify to the court of Edinburgh that he
did so. Mrs. Morton is suing for a di
vorce nnd alimony. The record from
over the sea says that he used to write
to her for about a year after he landed
and his messages were very endearing.
First they used to begin, "My Darling,
Dearest Alaggie," ami end with "Your
Affectionate Loving Archie:" but they
gradually grew more formal until n't
last they were devoid of feeling or sen
timent. Vnvidow-ltros.
