REMARKS OF JUDGE ARCHBALD After Thinl.iiiij About His C'liu:ge Over Night He Felt That He Had tiiven the DclcuUunt More (iium-c 'I'll nil He tin Eutitlcd To--.uiiiber of Pica of Uuilty Entered by I,awlirenkcr. llmmett A. llishop, the 60-year-old man, tried for enticing and inveigling Aniiabellii and Helen Kluig. girlH of tender years, from their home in Phila delphia, to tills city for immoral pur poses mider the guise of having Aiinu bella, the older one, work for him in a lintel here, was promptly convicted by the Jury, and he was sentenced by Judge Archbald yesterday to pay u fine nf and spend three years at hard labor in separate and solitary contlne- nicnt in the Kustern penitent tury. The case went to the Jury at 5 u'cl'u k .Monday afternoon and in about HO minutes a verdict was agreed upon mid scaled. It was returned to court yesterdny morning. Bishop only look ed a shade llercer from under his Fhag gy eyebrows when he heard the verdict and there was no tremor discernible on his countenance. The district attorney, John H. Jones, moved for sentence In the afternoon and llishop was led up before the bar of justice to receive his deserts. In passing sentence Judge Archbnld spoke as follows: "The story of these children was a very pathetic one and one that could not help but move any one who heard it. And the Intended outrage upqn them was so apparent from the evi dence that when I came to think of my chnrge over night, I felt ns though I had given the defendant more chance with the jury thnn he descived. This man got these children away from their pu rents, awny here w here they were ab solute strangers, and Inveigled them here by false promises, and the pur pose of it wus fully apparent by what he finally attempted to do." o SENTENCE PRONOUNCED. The judge then passed sentence and Bishop was led back to the prisoners' dock. His conviction is due to the un remitting efforts of District Attorney Jones, assisted by Mrs. W. B. Duggan nml Uev. P. C. Christ! pastor of St. Mary's Herman church, who saved the little girls from the vulture's nest. A large number of cases were cleared off the criminal list yesterday. P. H. flreen, w hoso trial was down for next week, plead guilty and was sentenced to four months in tho county jail, tho sentence to be computed from July 20 last. C.reen stole a satchel from Jen kins' hotel on Lackawanna avenue, and sold It on the West Side to some one In Fairchild's hotel. George Traub, a hoy, charged with stealing a watch from W. H. Wright's jewelry store in this city, admitted his guilt and he will be sentenced to the 1 1 tint Ingdi in reformatory. Krttnk l.uily, charged with larceny nnd receiving, confessed his guilt and was sentenced to spend six months in the county Jail, the sentence to be com puted from July IS lust. Chief of Police Holding was the prosecutor in the case, l.udy stole a set of carpenter tools from n house in process of construction near the Moses Taylor hospital, and he was cu light trying to dispose of them. Joseph Yando, also charged with lar ceny and receiving, preferred to throw himself on the mercy of the court, and he. too, wns sentenced to spend six months behind the bars, the sentence to be computed from June U last. Nicho las Young admitted that ho assaulted and battered Anthony H. Lloyd and he was sentenced to pay a line of $1 and the costs of the court. Annie E. Stevenson, of Jermyn. was not around to prosecute John Caffrey for being the father of her child, and a verdict of not guilty was taken and the costs were put on her. Colonel Fitzsimnions appeared for Miss Stev enson and stated that a settlement hud been arrived at. TELEGRAPH POLKS STOLEN. Martin Lupont nnd William (In tor, two Hungarians from Vandling, were tried for stealing a load of telegraph poles from a man named Michael Hart. Tho evidence against them was not very strong and a verdict of not guilty was returned. A nolle pros, was en tered in the case wherein Michael Phil bin, of Mlnouka, was charged by his brother, Patrick Philbln, with assault and battery. And a verdict of not guilty was taken in the case against Annie Moran, charged by Mary Tracy with stealing her store book und get ting goods from the company store by presenting It. The defendant has since been married. Mulachl Mulia and Michael Malia. of the West Side, were on the list charged with assault and buttery with Intent to kill, keeping a tippling house and selling liiptor on election day. John Kilcoyne was the prosecutor, but he did not put in un appearance at this or the last term of court, and verdicts of not guilty were taken and the costs were put on him. He is now in Ire land. Henry Stanton, of Pricebuig. was tried and convicted of two fuses of malicious mischief and one of assault and battery. Two women, Murtha Baker and Rodda Vinorl. wore the prosecutrices. It was a squabble that loose tongues had more or less to do with. Stanton was sentenced in each case to a fine of $1 ami. ten days In jail, but the sentences to run concur rently. Michael Kather, of Einmett street, was tried for assault and buttery on Lucy Smith, who, in her testimony, made more serious charges against him than beating her. He went out one evening after a pitcher of beer nnd on the return trip met her. After some words he hit her on the head with the pitcher, which was broken. Her head was cut and the beer was spilt all over her clothes. The Jury found Kather gulfty. Attorney George S. Horn rep resented the commonwealth with Dis trict Attorney Jones and Charles K. Olver, esq., represented the defendant. WHO STOLE THE DOG? Frank Gill and Alton Hathaway were tried for stealing a red beagle from Harry A. Depew. Mr. Jones represented the commonwealth, and Hon. T. J. Duggan and . 11. Lewis, esa.. represented the defendants. De pew went to his stable on the morning of Dec. 29, 1894, and found his dog gone and his hostler laid nut on the Moor from a hammering some one gave him. The hostler's assailant stole the dog. A year later Depew heard that the dog was In the possession of a man In Hopbottom, to whom it wns given by Hathaway, who got It from Gill. And Depew said that Gill admitted stealing it The defense was that Gill bought It from a man named Bob Johnson at Dunmore Corners, kept it for two months and then gave It to Hathaway, who let It out to the Hopbottom man to mind for him. The Jury brought In a verdict of not guilty. Gill is the young man who accidentally or other wise fired a bullet Into nts brain a few- months ago. The lead Is still Inside his skull, but he is not troubled with it even though it entered above his right ear and went across to the other side of his head. Michael Quln, of the Northwest, was tried for stealing a drilling machine from Simon Nlmchuek. E, C. Now comb. esu.. represented the defense. The evidence was weak, but It went to the Jury, and a verdict had not been returned at adjournment. The case of W. H. Greaves and Dr. 3. R. Newton was called a few minutes before adjournment. A Jury was sworn and testimony will be taken to duy. Court assigned Mr. New comb to make the jury challenge for the de fendant In the absence of Mr. tfcragg. Jreuves tired two shots ut Dr. New tun one Suturiluy night ubotit three months ago, amr-neuiiy murdered him. He will be tiled for felonious wound ing. POLITICAL JOTTINGS. The Issues of the campaign were ably, fully and eloquently presented by Attorneys H. C. Reynolds and 11. A. Zimmerman at a rally held lust night In Mueller's hall. Central Park, under the auspices of the William Conned Re publican cluL, of the Eleventh ward. The disagreeable weather did not pre vent the hall from being tilled, but it deterred many from coming, no doubt. Every seat in the place was taken, ami many hud to stand up, and it is not a small hall, by any means. Another matter to consider Is that the Eleventh ward Is a strong Democrat io strong hold, in the audience was noticed muny men who heretofore have ranked us Democrats. Charles W. Stone, president of the club, called the meeting to order und introduced Frank Mueller us c hairman. Mr. Mueller was pleased to see so many present to hear the Issues of the ciun paign discussed. the meeting wus called by the William Council club, and the response proves that there Is a very strong sentiment in favor of William Conncll for congress. Mr. Council's name was received with great applause. Mr. Mueller then introduced Attorney Reynolds. ' Air. Reynolds said that the times we have hud since 1N92 are such us the grayest head In the town never wit nessed bi fore. He then wont on with facts and llgures on the financial ques tion to prove that the arguments set forth by adherents of free silver will not restore the prosperity that has lied from the land, if a man tells you, he said, that free silver is goinir to bene fit the people, ask him how those who expect to get money honestly are go ing to get it easier than now. If they work and earn It. the best dollar that cun be made is not too good for them. lie cited the experience of the nation with greenbacks in 1S62-(!: to prove the evil of Inilated currency. Mr. Zimmerman's address was an eloquent one. Standing now, he said. In the shadows of October, ISUC. who would not gladly turn back to the prosperity of 1SPJ. Never In the his tory of the country had we better times than then, nnd never wns there such depression than since. It is no mistake that the Democratic party Is responsible for the change. Today we are confronted again with the Dem ocrat request, seeking to be returned to power. If you look back over the past you will find, he suid, that the Democratic party has never brought anything like prosperity. The Republican party, he said, has always kept in mind the pole star of American success and that is pros perity to American industry. In speak ing of the local candidates, and Mr. Council particularly, Mr. Zimmerman said that he Is a man who came here poor, but by his own efforts at tained to a position of wealth, lias Mr. Council, he said, hoarded away his money In vaults; does he In vest it In bonds and clip the coupons every three months; isn't he a mun that has Interested himself In nearly every industry in the city, and by his money does ho not give employment to thousands of workmen and place In their way a chance to earn a living? Another thing about. Mr. Connell, he said; he has never been sued for wages. he never a niiifi s money wns due It was ready for him, and not only that, but there never wus a charity that he wus not among the first to subscribe to. und to subscribe to liberally. Mr. Zim merman closed with a complimentary reference to H. W. Roberts and Giles Roberts, candidates for commissioner. and Fred Ward and A. E. Kiefer, can- 0 mutes lor auditor. A largely attended meeting of the Lackawanna Republican club was held last night In the rooms of the Central Republican club. Senator J. C. Vaugh un, president of the club, presided, and James MoGuinncss acted as secretary. After a short Introductory address Senator Vaughan introduced Hon. John R. Farr. candidate for legislature in the First district, as one of the speakers of the evening. Mr. Farr delivered an able and convincing argument on the duty every good citizen owes himself to do what In his power lies to secure the election of McKlnlcy und Huburt. He also urged on his hearers the neces sity of sending men to the national and state legislatures who by their work will assist iu sustaining the great prin ciples for w hich Republicanism stands. He dosed by referring to the merits of the Republican candidates for coun ty olliecs. Attorney M. W. Lowry was the next speaker. lie advised the members of the club lo woik unceas ingly for Republican micccss until the polls dose on election day. The dec tioii of Mi Kinley und Huburt he was convinced would mean four years of iiiiUonul prosperity and national hap piness. "Hut our duty does nut cud with electing McKinley and llubaii," continued the speaker. "We have a duly that cullies lumie clnscr to us In the election uf a congressman who will properly represent this district and be of service to the people of l.acku wanna. Such u man is William Connell and I predict his election by a majority of r,(lU." Mr. Lowry said lite presence of two of the legislative candidates pre vented him from speaking of them in the glowing terms in which they de serve to have their praises sung but be recommended them earnestly to the considi rution of the voters who. lie said, would be remiss hi their duty tu them selves If they fulled to return both of these gentlemen to the legislature. The necessity of re-electing S. W. und Giles Roberts as commissioners was dwelt upon und their economical and w ise ad ministration of county affairs called tu the attention of the voters. Messrs. Kelfer and Ward, candidates for uudit ors. -vere commended for their ability to fill the olliecs for which they have been nominated. A. T. Council, candi date for legislature in the Second dis trict, was next introduced but on ac count of a "very sore throat was unable to make, any extended remarks. After the speochmaking an impromptu re ception was held and the members of the club were introduced to Candidates Farr nml Connell by President Vaugh an. The Lackawanna club has a large membership and will meet every Tues day night until the dose of the eutni puiitn. A Republican, rally was held at Montdale, Scott township, last nlgnt, and a goodly number was present. Some came three or four miles through "the rain, and a pleasing feature was the conversion to the side of sound money and protection of a free silver ite. Attorneys A. A. Vosburg and H. F. Tlnkham were the sneakers. P. J. Lee was chosen chairman. Mr. Vos burg spoke first and treated the finan cial question In nn Intelligent style, He argued that the .government can not create value1 for silver and make fill cents worth of It worth a dollar any more thnn It enn fix the price of any other commodity. Mr. Tinkham fol lowed and discussed the tariff and financial questions and presented In clear nnd forceful style the effect of de preciated money upon the prosperity of the country. The Junior Republicans will hold a special meeting tonlsht In the Central Republican club rooms to consider mat ters pertaining to Thursday night's demonstration in the Frothlngham. A number of Democrats from this city went to Carbondale last night to participate in the rally at that place. This evening the Thirteenth ward Republican club will hold a meeting in the office of Alderman Bailey on Dick son avenue. Business of importance is to come before the club and every member is urged to be present. The meeting will be culld to order at 7.i0 o'clock. TWO PAPERS READ.

TODAY'S TALK IS OF JEWELRY Jewelry manufacturers have folt the recent depression in busi ness more keenly than almost any other lino. To keep facto ries running that make luxuries has been- doubly hard when those who manufacture necessities have been obliged to shut tlowu. The recent pressure has forced to the wall one of the largest jobbing houses iu the world, S. F. Myers & Co., of Xew Yoik. Large orders which they had placed with leading man ufacturers could not bo shipped owing to their sudden assign ment. We have been fortunate in securing some of these goods at prices that do not seem to cover the cost of making and prove the power of cash buying in quantity. Here are some of the articles and prices. We leave you to judge whether they are cheap or not: SILVER CHATELAINE WATCHES Solid silver cases. Movements liavo from 7 to 15 jewels; not all the same some are better than others hence lirst come best served. There's not a watch in tho lot that's not worth $5.00, but for two days we will sell them for $1.98. SOLID GOLD CUFF BUTTONS The latest in link cuff buttons. Solid cold at tho price of tbe plated ones. It's a question iu our minds whether they wouldn't bring more melted up and sold for old gold. Cheap they certainty are, and 5.00, the regular price, but yours for two days for only one dollar anil ninety-eight cents $1.9$. Warranted solid gold. BABY RINGS If the making alone is not worth more than we ask we wil 1 never make rings for a living. How a ring can be made to sell for 25c. is in it self a wonder and a tribute to Yankee ingenuity. What then must you think wheu we otter you a good ring for a dime 10l'.,for a ring for baby. FOUNTAIN PENS Faul E. Wirt's name on a fountain pen stands for all that is excellent iu pen mak ing. What's more unsatis factory than an unsatisfactory pen You of experience in using fountain pens know there is only one 'best," the Wirt; know, too, that the regular price is 2.50. Does'nt it convince you that this is the place to trade when, we tell you that we sell them for 81.1S now aud all the time.

Only a limited quantity at this more than limited price one you may never get again. SILVER THIMBLES We bought two gross of them. Placed one gross on sale last week intending to save the other gross for a higher price, but the people take naturally to bargains and we were obliged to disappoint a num ber of patrons. So today we let tho last of them go at the same price, 10c. Now, don't think they're solid silver be cause the price seems unreas onable.
