At a meeting of the New KnKlund So
ciety of Northeastern Pennsylvania,
last night in the board of trade rooms,
otliceis were elected to serve one year
and the first steps taken in connection
with the annual banquet on December
"2 In memory of Forefathers Day. Sev
eral meetings will he held before the
date of the bnmiuet.
There were present last night Sec
retary J. Harrv Fisher, Treasurer A. C.
Fuller. H. K. Paine. Alderman O. H.
Wright. J. L. Post, .1. S. Lansing,
t.-roy Wheeler, W. A. Wilcox. Charles
It. Sanderson, Levi J. Northrop and
P.obert Law. .if Pittston. II. K. Paine
was chosen chairman.
K. It. Sturg s was elected president,
and 51ajor Kvcrett Warren, vice presi
dent, and 51 r. Fisher and .Mr. Fuller
were respectively re-elected sceretaty
and trensuivr. 5Ir. Sturges was last
year's vice-president, and according to
past custom advances to the society s
major otllce. In which position he will,
with tho aid of nn entertainment com
mittee, proceed with the banquet ar
rangements, reporting nt a future meet
ing. The report of Treasttver Fuller con
tained the following1 items: Balance
fioni 1SSI4, $13(1.84; from new members,
1WI.1. $1(15; dues, ISM. $:)"hi; from the sale
of tickets for guests of members, $10;
total, $i'.fi.!.S4; cost of banquet, 1MI',
$4:lt;.M; present balance. SJ2H.34. The
hnlance was stated to be the largest In
the society's history.
PRICE OF TICKETS.
It was decided that $3 be charged this
year for each guest's banquet ticket.
Heretofore the charge has been only
$:i.'i0, an an ount insulllelent to eovr th
cost per plate. This fart and that of
the Increased balance in the treasury
do not appear to be compatible, but
the treasury sum Is explained by the
fact that a member's dues must be paid
whether he attends the banquet or not.
The application of Russell Dlmmick,
of this city, for membership was ap
proved, but those of Dr. E. T. Wheaton,
Dr. A. D. Preston and W. J. Northrop
were referred to the membership com
mittee, the applicants not having ueen
received ill the required form.
For banquet speakers, Hev. A. B.
Raymond, of Union college: W. H. 5lae
Elroy, of the Rochester Post Express,
and Rev. Russell Comvell, of Phila
delphia, were recommended. Their
names were referred to the entertalOj
nient committee.
Secretary Fisher and W. A. Wilcox
last year were appointed to draft ami
report by-laws and report concerning
the suggestion of some members that
the society bo chartered. Their report
was presented, but meanwhile the by
laws adopted nt the organization of
the society In were found and be
cause of this the report was returned
to the committee for further consid
eration, and Treasurer Fuller was, on
motion, added to the committee.
5Ir. Paine and Mr. Wheeler urged
that the by-laws provide for a so
ciety historian. No action was taken
on the matter. The meeting adjourned
subject to the call of the president.
In past years the work of the de
tailed arranging for the banquets hns
been left to the president, an enter
tainment committee to be appointed
by him and the secretary and treas
urer. This custom will he followed
now. The speakers, place, souvenirs,
music and all else pertaining to the
feasting will be attended to by those
gentlemen. It hns been the practice
not to make public any of the plans
beyond the location of the banquet hall.
Each venr the tone of the commem
orative sinead has Improved and the
number of Its participants Increased.
Ninety-one persons sat at table in the
Hotel Terrace last year, plates hav
ing to be placed for about fifteen more
persons than had been expected. This
year's affair will undoubtedly be at
tended by at least one hundred and
possibly more descendents of New Eng
land stock and their friends.
AMUSEMENTS.
"The Great Diamond Robbery," the
new exciting melodrama, by Edward
M. Alfriend and A. C. Wheeler, which
scored such a phenomenal hit during its
recent engagement In Kew York city,
will be presented at the Academy of
Music to-night and to-morrow night.
Tlie story starts with tho theft of costly
diamonds nnd a murder. The develop
ments, which place the crime upon an
Innocent young man, are interwoven
with the political Intrigues and the final
downfall of a corrupt political hand.
The scenes Include a mansion on Lex
ington avenue, a Houston street cloth
ing store, p ilfelike picture of the Hoff
man House famous cafe, . an under
ground den in the criminal quarter of
Gotham, and n Fifth avenue drawing
room. The same original cast, includ
ing such famous artists ns Rose Ey
tinge, Mrs. Annie Yeamans, Selene
Johnson, Fanny Cohen, Irene Haywavd.
Louise Closser, Ellen Cuinmlns, W. A.
Whitecar. Edward Ames, Thomas 51.
Hunter, Joseph E. Whiting. George C.
Boniface, J. H. Cosser, Joseph Bell,
Gustave Frankel. Joseph A. Wilkes,
James Bevlns, James Floyd. John
Jones, and E. M. Bartlett. The same
elaborate scenery, properties and ef
fects which marked Its marvelous run
in New York, will be used upon Its pro
duction here.
John W. Isham's "Octoroons." which
appear at the Academy Friday and
Saturday and Saturday matinee, is
such a novelty as pleases everyone who
wishes to be entertained and pleasnntly
amused. Some of the good things to
be Introduced between the comedies nnd
operas: "I Love You Better Than All,"
a duet by the King sisters: "On the
Boulevarde," by Frank Mallory and
Mamie Emerson: "Isham's Octoroon
Quartette," directed by Mazy Brooks;
"Cripple Creek Gang," by George A.
Hammond; "Four Little Tea Vendors
from China," a highly amusing quar
tette, and "The Hottest Nigger In
Town." by Bob Kelly, which is hil
ariously funny. Besides these there
are various other divertispments. all of
which concludes with "Thirty Minutes
Around the Operas." wherein all lovers
of music will be afforded a treat by the
selections rendered from the best
operas.
Saturday evening Maggie Cllne. one
of the greatest female Irish character
delineators of the present day, will be
seen at the Frothlngham In "On Broad
way," one of the dramatic successes of
the season. No star has -ever appeared
in New York that has met with such
favorable criticism from the press and
public as Maggie Cllne did at the Grand
Opera House, where she made her
metropolitan debut as a star f- "tin
Broadway." The receipts for the week
from the opening night steadily in
creased and standing room only was
displayed at every performance.
Maggie Cllne'g success as a star Is
firmly established, and she will be one
of the big drawing cards on the road
this season, as her reputation Is not
conlined to New York, but Is national.
Manager Kerr, of the Frothlngham,
has decided to abolish the ticket office
In the lobby of the theater. The two
rooms nearest to the theater on the
Westminster side of the Arcade are be
ing fitted up for a ticket other, and a
private office for Manager Kerr, and
within a few days they will be In use.
This arrangement will be more con
venient. Christmas. New Year, Fourth of July
and other holidays are looked forward
to with delight as they bring enjoyment.
There is something which causes one
to feel that the day was created for
revelry. So it Is with Pete Baker's
dialect comedy, "Chris and Lena,"
which Is to be presented at Davis's
theater Thursday, November 12, and
balance of the week. The players are
all talented, while the specialties are
novel and with such nn Interesting
theme ns "Chris and Lena." It cannot
be otherwise. If you wish to pass nn
evening or afternoon of joviality don't
fail to be nt the theater during this
notable engagement.
THOSE TICKET SELLERS.
Board of Associated Charities Is Anxious
to Put a Stop to the Imposition
Practiced by Humbugs.
At last evening's meeting of the
Board of Associated Charities it was
decided to make a new departure in
the matter of ralsin:r money to carry
on the work of the board. A project
has been under consideration for some
time of conductins an entertainment,
"5lnrrlage Dances of All Nations."
: which has met with great .favor in
I all parts of the country. It was Anally
, decided last niglA to abandon the en-
tertainment idea and appeal directly
I to the charitable. The suggectlon came
; from Rev. Hogers Israel, secretary of
the board.
The preFidnt, Colonel E. H. Uipplo,
; and tt'e treasurer, W. T. Smith, were
j designated as a committee to select
' small committees to visit residents
i of the city who w ill be willing to give
i a fixed sum annually to the board and
i solicit their subscription. It would
require from $l.."i(K) to $'2.0.00 to proper
ly carry on the work of the board, and
it Is thought that this sum can b
raised by subscriptions. At all events
the effort will be made.
MANAGER DAVIS THANKED.
Treasurer Smith's report acknowl
', edged the receipt of some contributions,
: but showed that the finances of the
1 board need strengthening. The sec
j retary was instructed to write a let
ter to Manager Davis, of Davis' the
ater, conveying the thanks of the
; board foi his recent benetlt. "He does
more for ns than any one man In the
city," nnd "lie's a grand, good man,"
were some of the comments made on
Mr. Davis.
Thomas .Moore, chairman of the re
lief committee, reported that during
the Inst month applications for relief
have not been so numerous. Those
found worthy he recommended to Sup
erintendent Phillips, of Nay Aug park,
who gave them work in the park.
The ticket selling nuisance came up
for consideration, and several cases
were brought to the attention of the
board, where persons were around sell
ing tickets for rallies, dinners and
dances for the benefit of persons who
have no existence in fact. So many
of these humbugs are Imposing on the
charitable that the board requests mer
chants and others to refer the ticket
sellers to the agent of the board, Mrs.
W. H. Duggan, that their cases may
be investigated.
THE MONTGO.VERY CHILDREN.
There was some discussion as to the
best thing to do with the four chil
dren of Thomas nnd Mary Montgom
ery, worthless parents, who spend the
greater purt of their time In Jail. The
children are now in, St. Patrick's or
phan asylum, and it was decided to
have them Indentured Into good fam
ilies if possible. The parents are of
Intemperate habits and do not care
for them.
5Irs. Duggan, the hoard's agent. In
her report for October set forth that
she investigated fifty-one cases and
found forty-two of them worthy. Three
persons were furnished with work,
three with lodging and meals, two with
transportation, two were sent to hos
pitals, fifteen to institutions, five re
turned to parents, two cases reported
to district attorney, two to chief of
police, six beggars and frauds exposed
and four cases referred to the board's
nurse. That official reported that she
had cared for nine cases during the
month.
. The board will hold Its annual meet
ing on the second Tuesday of January.
J. R. BEETEM RESIGNS.
Severed His Connection with Phila
delphia I nion Traction Company.
General Manager J. R. Beetem, of
the Cnlon Truction company, yester
day presented his resignation to the
executive committee of the board of
directors of tin? company. This ac
tion on the Pari of Mr. Itcetein was
not unexpected, as for some time past
he has been considering the accept
ance of a very responsible and more
Impoitant position with a street rail
way system in another city. With
this fact in consideration the directors
consented to accept the resignation.
No appointment, was made to succeed
Mr. Beetem.
tine of the directors of the company,
speaking of Mr. lieetem's retirement
from the direction of the affairs of the
company, stated: "We have lost a most
ellicUnl general manager, and his
place will be hard to till, t'nder his
plans the organization of the system
has been made almost perfect In its
operation, the three big traction sys
tems forming the ITnlon company be
ing welded together like a perfect piece
of machinery. t'nder 51 r. Beetem's
control the street car service of Phila
delnhia, as we believe, has been
brought to a higher state of elliciency
than any other electrical system in
the country, and the company and the
public have alike been the gainers. He
Is one of the few men we know of in
the country who has a practical knowl
edge of all branches of the street rail
way business, or who could have
brought the Pnlon Traction system up
to Its high state of elliciency during
his connection with it." Philadelphia
Record.
Mr. Beetem. until about a year nnd
a half ago was manager of the Scrnn
ton Traction company, nnd went from
here to Philadelphia to become gen
eral manarrer of the People's Traction
company. When the consolidation of
the Philadelphia lines took place 5Ir.
Beetem became the head of the system
as the general manager of the t'nion
Traction company.

At a special meeting of the Throop
Stove company, held yesterday, Mr. E.
N. Shirer was elected a director, to fill
the unexpired term of 5Ir. J. 51. Ash,

Two P ntutitt ilet Verdicts by lira
ou of the on-Aiicnrnnce of le
truduntshilrur Case Settled.
On account of the Identity of inter
ests a husband is incompetent us a
witness in any Instance In which a
wife is incompetent and vice versa
This, a Supreme court ruling, yester
day defeated a cnuse which Attorney
D. B. Keplogle was pleading in civic
court. It was in the case of 5Iary Klef
er against John Hitter, executor of
the estate of Julia C.iebig, lute of Pet
ersburg. 51rs. Hiring wus an Invalid
and for forty weeks before her death
required constant and watchful cure.
Mrs. Kiefer, who is the wife of Mrs.
Giebig's nephew, nursed Mrs. Giebig
during all this time, partly, sho al
leged, because she considered it her
duty as a relative, and partly because
she would be "paid and paid well"
for It.
5lrs. Kiefer and her husband. Philip
Kiefer, were the only witnesses who
could give direct testimony of this ver
bal contract. Mrs. Kiefer was pro
hibited from testifying by reason of
the law which precludes the evidence
of one party to a contract when the
other Is dend. 5Ir. Kiefer. however,
was thought to be competent and was
put on the stand to testify to the con
tract. C051EGYS Ql'OTED LAW.
Mr. Comegys, attorney for the de
fense, brought up the seldom quoted
ruling, making the husband incom
petent when the wife Is incompetent,
and after a. short argument between
the attorneys. Judge Edwards direct
ed the witness to leave the stand. None
of the other witnesses could supply
the necessary link and on the Instruc
tion of the court Hie Jury found for
the defendant.
The jury in the case of Edith Walker
against the city of Scranton could not
see that she was entitled to any of the
$'G,000 she claimed she suhtaincd by
fulling over a stone which the city
negligently allowed to project above
the sidewalk on the noriheant corner
of Lackawanna avenue and Ninth
street. The case was given to the Jury
al 2.30 o'clock p. ni., and. an hour and
a quarter later they returned with a
verdict lor the defendant.
C. L. Tyler's claim for $14 wages
against Arthur Frothlngham was
called for trial during the afternoon,
but as no one appeared to combat the
plaintiff's statements. Judge Edwards
directed a verdict ngainst the defend
ants. D. B. Reploge represented Tyler.
A verdict for the plaintiff was also
directed In the case of Thomas Jenkins
against Michael Brink, no one appear
ing for the defense. The action
was to secure possession of a quan
tity of goods held by Brink. Attor
ney W. Gaylord Thomas appeared for
the plaintiff.
KILCCR CASE SETTLED.
The case of Patrick Kilcnr against
the Kdgrrton Coal company, limited,
which was on the list for trial yester
day, was amicably settled at a con
ference between O'Brien Kelly, at
torneys for the plaintiff, and Warren
A Knapp, who represented the de
fendant company.
Kilcurwas employed in tan I In tho
capacity of an oiler at the Edgerton
Coal company's breaker, and one day
had an arm taken off In the monKey
rollers used In that colliery for crush
ing coal. He Is now employed as sta
