VISIT OF CRYSTAL
BOYS TO NEWBURGH
Were Given a Royal Reception by the
Firemen and Citizens Generally.
ENJOYED A SAIL ON THE HUDSON
Paid a Visit to .West Point and
Poughkecpiie--At the Latter Place
The Were the Guests of the Voung
America Hose Company Ban
quetted and Shown the Bights
of the Town.
The Newburgh (N. Y.) Register of
Tuesday contains the following with
reference to the reception tendered the
members of the Crystal Hose company
of Scranton in that city:
"Crystal Hose company, No. 4, of
Scranton, Pa., arrived in Newburgh
last evening and has been the guests
of the fire department of this city dur
ing the past 24 hours.
"CryBtul Hose company Is the crack
fire organization of the city from which
it hails, and is made up of as line look
ing a body of young men as ever came
to the Hillside city. It is accompanied
by a number of prominent Invited
guests, also by Lawrence's band of 25
pieces. The party left Scranton on
Monday morning at 10.55. having two
O. & W. railroad cars especially set
apart for Its use. At Mlddletown a
stop of 10 minutes was made, and then
the run to Cornwall was resumed,
reaching the latter place at 5.28 p. m.
After a wait of about 20 minutes the
cars were attached to the train reach
ing here at 5.56.
"At 5.30 a delegation of ten members
from each company In the fire depart
ment under command of the foreman
and assistant, assembled at Washing
ton steamer house, where Chief Nixon
and his assistants met them, and head
ed by a drum corps the hundred men
marched to South Water street and
there awaited the coining of the visit
ors. They had not long to wait, and
as soon as the train moved Into the de
pot Chief Nixon and his assistants has
tened down to welcome them and escort
the Pennsylvanians Into line, which
they did, passing to the head of the
column.
VISITORS TAKEN IN CHARGE. '
"The United States hotel, where ar
rangements for the entertainment of
the Crystals during their sojourn here
had been made, was reached at 7 o'clock
and after registering, being assigned to
their respective rooms, and cleaning,
supper was partaken of in the dining
hall. Then the evening was passed in
sight seeing, the delegates from the
several fire companies acting as es
corts to the strangers.
"But the firemen were not alone in
their attentions. Lew O'Brien Is well
acquainted in Scranton, and he soon
had a half dozen in charge; the Elks
learned that another, half-dozen of the
new arrivals were among the best peo
ple on earth. President Little and a
few others set about getting them to
the lodge session; and It Is safe to say
that none of the Scranton people had
any cause to write home that they were
lonesome, although many did drop a
few lines to friends and relatives as
soon as they arrived.
"According to promise the Lawrence
band gave a concert In the United
States hotel at 8.30. It was fully en
joyed by all assembled, and there was
a large gathering both inside and out
side the hotel building. The band Is
an excellent o&e, as all can testify who
heard It on the street today. It Is
even better with concert music than In
the marching column.
WENT TO WEST POINT.
"When the visitors arrived here last
evening it looked decidedly blue for
their chances of going to West Point
today on the steamer Defender. As
stated in the Register last night the
authorities at the military academy
had refused permission for the boat to
land. The Scrantonians wanted a sail
oh the river, and they wanted to go
to West Point. Chir Nixon, Station
Agent Musten and Thomas Flltcroft,
of the New York, Ontario and Western
set to work and with the assistance of
Manager Glllen were soon tn.communl
cotion with Captain Drake. It was ar
ranged that the Defender should be
here this morning at 9 o'clock, take the
boys to Highland Falls dock and from
there they could make the entry of
West Point overland. This was done,
and the visitors were back in time to
take dinner at the States. They were
delighted with the trip and all will
consider it one of the great features of
their excursion to the Hudson river.
"This afternoon the Crystals partici
pated In the exercises attending the un
veiling of the Clinton statue, arid this
too will be a red letter event in their
company history, and one that was not
expected at the time the trip was or
iginally laid out. When the parade
was over a short time was left In which
to see Washington's headquarters, and
the programme as now laid out Is for
them to leave here at 6.30 on the De
fender for Poughkeepsie, where they
are to be received by the Young Ameri
ca Hose company and the fire deparW
ment, banquetted at the Morgan house,
shown the sights of the town tomorrow
and leave at 4 p. m. with their enter
tainers for Mlddletown, where there
will be a reception. On Thursday Crys
tal and Young America will participate
In the parade of that department. The
start for home will be made on Friday
morning, reaching their destination at
4.30 in the afternoon."

WAS AN UNWILLING GROOM
McLean, to Prevent Any Legal Compli
catloni, Agreed to a Marriage Cere
mony Bride from Deposit, N. Y.
Had masked robbers thrust a gun
through the ticket window and ordered
"hands up," Edward McLean the On
tario and Western station agent at
Park Place could not have been' more
surprised and excited than he was yes
terday afternoon when attracted by a
noise at the window he wheeled around
In his chair and saw through the grat
ing the face of the girl whom he had
wronged and deserted in New York
state a few months ago. By her side
was an aged but stalwart looking
man whom he recognized as the girl's
uncle and guardian, Rev. W. W.
Pounce, a Catholic priest of Deposit.
It was unnecessary for him to ask
what was wanted or for them to tell
him.
"Do you Intend to redress the wrong
you have done this girl?" the priest
asked. When McLean could find words
he stammered something about not
being ready and that he would make
matters right in good time.
"You will do it now or take the
consequences" was the alternative giv
en by the uncle. McLean hesitated and
asked for time to think the matter
over. The alternative was repeated.
He told them to go ahead; do their
worst. The priest went to the door gave
a signal and Officer Stephen Dyer
came in with a warrant which h forth
with served uppn McLean. It was
sworn out before Alderman Fuller and
charged him with betraying Lizzie
Jones, a minor child, under promise
of marriage, on May 1, 1896.
On the way to the alderman's office
McLean suggested that they retire
somewhere and Bee if they could not
come to some agreement. This was
agreed to after a two hour's conversa
tion In Alderman Fullers private office.
McLean reluctantly agreed to marry
the girl.
. The party repaired to the clerk of the
court's office and secured a license. Mc
Lean answered the questions Bullenly
and acted all through as if he was any
thing but pleased with the affair. When
the question of the ceremony was pro
pounded, the uncle suggested that he
could perform the ceremony. "All
right; do it then," was McLean's way
of agreeing. When asked by the uncle
whether or not he would like to go to
the cathedral, McLean replied that he
was satisfied with the place they were
In. Father Pounce thereupon told him
take the girl's hand, and in a few mo
ments they were man and wife.
The girl went with her uncle, but
McLean intends to provide a home and
live with her as soon as he is able.
She Is now twenty-one and he Is
twenty-four. He formerly lived in Os
wego, N. Y., and later In Hancock.
While in the latter city he met and
courted the girl, who lived in Deposit.
When she appealed to him about two
months ago to make good his promise
he slipped out and came here, thinking
that he would be safe from prosecution
in this state. Her relatives learned of
his whereabouts and yesterday's cere
mony was the result.

WALL IS A VERY
MUCH MARRIED MAN
Has Been Wedded to Three Women In
.Twelve Years, and All Are Alive.
MARRIED FIRST AT FACT0RYVILLE
Detective North, of Delaware County,
N. V., Here Looking l'p Evidence
Againit Frank E. Wall Now in Jail
TherePrisoner Said Hit First
Wife Died in Scranton But There
It No Record of It.
Deteitlve William R. North, a' Delhi.
Delaware county, N. Y came to
Scranton yesterday to look up evidence
against a man named Frank E. Wall,
who is under indictment in Delaware
county for bigamy. Mr. North was
sent on here by District Attorney Wil
liam F. White, of that county.
The detective called at the office of
Clerk of the Courts John H. Thomas
and at the board of health office in
city hall to look up the records. Wall
was married at Factoryvllle, Wyoming
county, this state, on July 12. 1S84. His
bride was Miss Addle Vun Gorder, of
that place, and the ceremony was per
formed by Rev. Thomas Ilauown.
On August 24. 18Si, he was married
at Preston Park, Wayne county, and
this time he led Miss Georgiana Fall
lug, of that place, to the altar. Rev.
S. B. Abrams was the officiating cler
gyman. A short while ago he married a Miss
Mortis, of Delaware county, N. Y and
for that transaction he Is now In
trouble and under Indictment to be
tried next week for bigamy, but It may
be a case of polygamy before the de
tective gets through with it.
SAID FIRST WIFE WAS DEAD.
When Wall married Mls9 Falling In
Preston Park he claimed that his first
wife, the Van Gorder woman, was
dead, that she died here in Scranton
several years ago. No one questioned
his statement, or at least no one took
the trouble to find out whether or not
it was true, and as the woman he
married seemed to be satisfied and take
for granted that what he said was true,
everything went along nicely until one
day he deserted her.
The next heard of him was when he
turned up In Delhi, N. Y., and married
Miss Morris. He claimed to her that
his first wife was deud, and although
he admitted that he married Miss Fall
ing, he contended that the marriage
was not a valid one. An investigation
was begun and enough of facts were
secured to dispute the truth of Wall s
assertion. He was, therefore, arrested
and in default of bull was committed
to Jail to await trial.
District Attorney White says that
when the proper time comes he can
easily prove that Wall's marriage with
Miss Failing was a valid one and that
his subsequent union with Miss Morris
made him guilty of bigamy. But Mr.
White wants. If he can get the evi
dence, to prove that Wall is not only
a bigamist, but that he makes a prac
tice of marrying whenever he chooses,
and that's the reason Detective North
came on here.
NO RECORD OF HER FOUND.
The detective heard that the Van
Gorder woman married again after
Wall left her, and that It was to some
