THE ARCHBALD CYCLONE.
St. Thomas Church Badly Damaged-It
Is Probable That the Steeple Will
Have to Come Down.
The cyclone of Thursday night at
Archbald, an account of which appear
ed exclUBlvcly In yesterday's Tribune,
did considerable damage to St.
Thomas' church. The steeple was
moved about ten inches off its founda
tion and now leans toward the main
part of the church. The slate roof of
the church was also torn up and the
rain coming In through the exposed
part damaged the frescoed ceiling and
side, walls.
The cruss on the sacristy was also
Mown clown. The steeple is now in a
dangerous condition and It will be torn
down Immediately. Building Inspector
Nelson, of this city was up there yes
terday and made an examination of
the structure. As a result of his in
spection the steeple will be taken down.
Had It fallen during the storm it
would surely cause great damage and
perhaps loss of life.
The postoflice nnd Burke's hotel are
beside the church and there were peo
ple in each of those places during the
storm.
The wind seemed to touch the town
In spots. It's first effects were felt at
the Riverside store where It tore off a
portion of the roof. The houses at the
top of Dutch Hill also felt the force
if the wind and there were fences,
trees and outbuildings blown down in
that vicinity.
Farther down the hill there was no
damage done. The gale semed to rage
with greatest fury within a space about
one hundred yards wide and three
hundred yeards long-
This belts extended from Klnback'
in a northeasterly direction to the culm
pile behind St. Thomas' church. The
roof of one of Mr. Kinback's houses,
iii'eupicil by Frank Barber, was par
ffiilly torn oft and the dwellings of
Peter Probst and the Lutheran parson
age af) suffered severely. Nearly every
one living within the territory referred
sustained damage of some descrip
tion. The Kin of PUla Is Beecham's.-

AMUSEMENTS.
The far off San Francisco press was
enthusiastic In its praises of Rosabel
Morrison's "Carmen." The Examiner
said: "There Is the snap and vim and
hot blood in Carmen that would make
it go even with an average company,
but last night was distinctly above
the average. The kiss alone was worth
the price of admission. It was not the
Nelhersole kss, but we can't expect
everything so far from New York. Still
It suffices." The Call said: "Carmen"
is a play that will appeal to the people.
It is out of the usual line and is full
of scenic effect, motion and color." The
Post said: "The chances are that it
will even achieve more popularity as
a play than it has as an opera." "Car
men" will be given at the Academy of
Music on next Monday and Tuesday,
Nov. 9 and 10.
Fresh from its triumphs and ringing
with the plaudits showered upon it
during its phenomenal run of five
months in New York city, comes that
greatest of American melodramas,
"The Great Diamond Robbery," under
the management of A. M. Palmer and
Edwin Knowles. This intense play, for
it Is said to be deep in plot and strong
in dialogue, Is the joint work of A. C.
Wheeler, known to all the reading pub
lic under the name of Nyra Crynkle,
and Edward M. Alfrlend, the author
of several very successful plays. To
cast even a casual glance at the great
company engaged and presenting this
famous melodrama. Is proof enough to
warrant the claim that the manage
ment makes in referring to Its as a
phenomenal one as to be found among
Its principals are the well known
names of Rose Ey tinge, Mrs. Annie
Yeamans, Selene Johnson, Fanny Co
hen, Irene Hayward, Louise Closser,
Ellen Cummins, W. A. Whltecar, Ed
ward Ames, Thomas M. Hunter, Jo
seph E. Whiting, George C. Boniface,
J. H. CoRser, Joseph . Bell, Uustave
Frankel, Joseph A. Wilkes, James Be
vlns, James Floyd, John Jones, W. A.
Black and E. M. Bartlett. This com
pany will lie at the Academy of Music
Wednesday and Thursday, November
11 and 12.
In these days when realism occupies
so prominent a place upon the stage,
some startling pictures have been given
to the theatre-going public, but 'of all
productions "The Pulse of JJew York."
to be seen at Davis' Theatre next Mun
day. Tuesday and Wednesday is at the
head of the Hat. when scenery and
realistic mechanical effects are consid
ered. "Th Pulse of New York" tells
a thrilling story of life In the great
metropolis, and is presented by a most
capable company, headed by Miss Car
rie Lamont, a clever soubrette, who
will be remembered as the star for
several seasons of her own company,
and Chris Uruno, who last season was
principal comedian of the "Devil's
Auction" company.

FOOTBALMfmS AFTERNOON.
The Game Between Scranton nnd
Wyoming Will Be Decided.
This nfternoon at 3 o'clock, Scranton
lans will have an opportunity of seeing
the Scranton and Wyoming foot ball
game, which is to decide the tie game,
played at Kingston election day. In
which neither team succeeded in scor
ing. Wyoming is very much stronger
this year than ever before and the way
they went at the Scranton boys on
Tuesday last proved a great surprise to
the supporters of the orange and black.
However, as Scranton will be consid
erably strengthened by the addition of
that old-tima veteran guard, Zang, the
Scranton boys expect to make " decid
edly Interesting for the blue and white
stockinged foot ball warriors. This is
the first game that the Scratnon team
h.ts played here this year and much in
terest Is manifested by the enthusiast
as to what the team can do without the
giant Connery.
The team is rather unfortunate in not
having a coach this year, but notwith
standing that, ore playing good, hard
foot bull. The fact that Wyoming play
ed Scranton a tie game on Tuesday has
very much encouraged the former and
they will come up with the detormlna
tlon to win.
SOCIETY FILES A BOND.
This Will Enable It to Get Bodies
for Dissection.
In accordance with the terms of an
net of the legisloture "for the promo
tion of medical Bcience by the distri
bution and use of unclaimed human
bodies for scientific purposes through
a board created for that purpose and
to prevent the unauthorized uses and
traffic In human bodies," the Scranton
Anotomicttl society yesterday filed a
bond in court in the sum of $1,000. The
sureties are Dr. J. B. and Mrs. Mary
Unrvey.
The filing of this bond makes it pos
sible for the Scranton Society to get a
certain per ccnlnge of the unclaimed
bodies in the hospitnls and almhouses
of this vicinity for dissection purposes.

W as a Dublin .Man.
Hon. Lemuel Amerman and Hon. II.
W. Palmer are home from Ireland,
where they went six weeks ago, in
company with John T. Richards, in the
capacity of executors of the estate of
the late Judge Hundley, to be present
at the taking of the depositions of the
Hundley claimants No. 3 of Enniscor
thy. Mr. Richards, who made the trip
a bridal tour. Intends making a visit
to the Continent before returning.
They visited a number of different
towns and cities In pursuing their mis
sion and had sittings of several days
at Wexford, Dublin and Ennlscor
thy. The attorneys for the estate
adduced no direct evidence, but mere
ly cross-examined the witnesses pro
duced by the attorneys for the claim
ants, Huggard & O'Connor, whose local
correspondent is ex-Judge Jessup. Con
cerning the character of the evidence
brought out. Mr. Amerman said to a
Tribune reporter yesterday:
"The claimants purport to be cousins
of the late Judge. They allege that
John Handley was born in Ennlscor
thy. There undoubtedly was a John
Handley born in Ennlscorthy, but they
absolutely failed to show any connec
tion between him and Judge Handley.
In fact their own testimony was proof
positive that they were two totally
different persons. Their John Hand
ley left Ennlscorthy when he was nine
teen years of age and went, they diilo'l
know whore, but supposed, to America.
They never heurd of him after his de
parture. Judge Handlcy's death csmo
to their ears through the agency of a
party In America. WJien they heard
that Judge John Handley had died In
Scranton leaving millions and without
nn heir, they at once recognized In him
their John Hundley.
THE ENXISCORTHY JOHN.
"We brought out on cross-examination
that the Ennlscorthy John when
he left there at the age of IS years was
S feet 10 inches In height. Some of the
witnesses thought he was about 5 feet
8 Inches. The Judge wns feet 4 inches.
When asked as to the color of the lad's
hair, the witnesses one and all agreed
that it wns the color of Mr. Amerman's,
as they put it. My hair, as you will
notice, Is decidedly brown, while the
late judge's was a raven black, as nil
will remember w ho knew him before he
became gray.
"The John Handley who left Ennls
corthy was described by his own rela
tives ns a ne'er-do-well, who spent his
time fishing and loafing and who never
did a stroke of work In his life. Those
who knew Judge Handley will scarcely
admit that he was Identical with the
Ennlscorthy lad. The Judge's habits
were as opposed to idleness as any two
things can be opposite to each other.
He was most Industrious and a man
renowned for his cloBe attention to
details."
This was all Mr. Amerman cared to
say about the case. He could give
many more proofs of the flimslness of
the claimant's case, but thought that
the above was sufficient to cover the
news features of it and to satisfy the
people of Scranton who naturally take
such a deep Interest in the matter.
THEY ARE NOT ACQUAINTED.
There Is no connection, Mr. Amer
man explained, between these Ennls
corthy claimants and the Roscommon
claimants, one of whom died In this
city while here last Summer looking
up the estate, nnd who it Is said bore
a close resemblance to the judge In both
stature and feature. Roscommon Is M
miles west of Dublin nnd Ennlscorthy
is 80 miles south of Dublin. The claim
ants of the latter place knew nothing
of the Roscommon Handleys nnd were
not aware that there were claimants
other than themselves.
Mr. Amerman suys that Judge Hand
ley stated frequently during his life
that Dublin was his birthplace and
always maintained that he had
no . relatives. Another claimant who
alleges that she Is a sister of the judge
and who threatens suit disavows all
relationship with either the Roscom
mon or Ennlscorthy Handleys.
Mr. Amerman says the executors feel
satisfied that all these claims are
groundless and that there will be but
little difficulty In proving them so. ,
