ot Last Year--H d lor Several
Improvement Considered.
Kadi liianch of councils met last
night, and in the common body the
meeting developed several measures of
importance and one period of liveliness.
The latter was in connection with the
award id' contracts for furnishing 'mil
for the tire company iiuirters and po
lice stations. Every i oinmotier was In
his scat.
Contrary to expectations the tire de
partment committee made no report
on the resolution of select council
awarding the coal contract to James
Kearney. Mis bid was W.tiO cents per
ton for egg, chestnut and stove con. I
and $1.60 for pea coal. The bids of
lievine & Alct'uiie were $-.'..V tor egg.
chestnut and stove coal, Sl.os for pea
coal and Xti cents for buckwheat. The
select council resolution was adopted
last week hut since then their had
been considerable lobbying in the in
terest of Devine & AlcGulre.
Air. Seamans. of the Thirteenth,
urged some kind of n report from the
committee and suggested thai while it
was being prepared, a recess be taken.
Chairman Noone and Air. Aloir of the
committee, pleaded time but a report
was requested. The committee retired
and were absent about llfteen minutes,
sounds of loud argument coming in the
interim from the retiring room. Mr.
Zeldler, who had been requested by
President drier to occupy the chair,
had his troubles In trying to keep order
In the council chamber during the com
mittees wrangle.
TWO REPOHTS PKKSKXTKI').
Members Alolr. Wenzel and Thomas,
of the committee, finally uppeared with
a majority report approving select
council's resolution and the Kearney
bid: Chairman Noone and Air. Gordon
presented a minority report favoring
the bid of Devine & Alagulre.
Air. Seamans made a motion, second
ed by Air. Keller, that the majority re
port be adopted mid Air. drier a motion
that the minority report be adopted.
Air. Keller and Air. drier each claimed
the privileges of the floor. The minor
ity motion was put and lost by the
same vote which carried the majority
motion as follows:
Aves S. Thomas, Hongan, llllroy, Klan

Seamans, Nenlls, Oliver, Zcidler, Keller,

During the progress of the parlia
mentary light. Air. drier was most ac
tive in advocating the cause of the
minorityltes, but failed to convince
the mujoiily men that the Devine 6i
Al edit ire bids were. In substance, as
low as the one of Kearney.
Air. Oliver revived his Lackawanna
avenue viaduct ordinance which last
year was presented in the select
branch. It appeared In its Identical
form, was read and, on motion of its
father, referred without debate, to tile
committee on streets and bridges.
1NCKKASK iiK DEBT.
The ordinance provides for "increas
ing the city debt for the purpose of
procuring land for, and constructing u
viaduct parallel with West Lackawan
na avenue from Seventh street to Ninth
street, and submitting the question of
such Increase to a vote of the electors
thereof." The ordinance indicates that
th- properties contiguous to the south
erly side of the avenue are to be used
anil that the city issue) bunds to the
umount of JlaO.Oov to cover the cost.
The proposition of William Slreutor
mid Norman Leech, two lullueiitial
farmers, to provide for $1,500 all alter
native turnpike to South Abington was
thought to have disappeared in an or
dinance covering the matter and which
was referred several weeks ago to com
mittee. The ordinance was reported
fuvorahly last Light and passed two
readings but with nil amendment sug
gested by the city solicitor. The
umeiidment stipulates that before
payment or the $I,"iO0 by the ciiy the
work shall have been passed mum by
the street commissioner, and that llu
city solicitor shall have cei tilled that
the inotierty has been properly dedi
cated to the city.
Air. Nealis introduced a resolution,
which was passed, reminding the clerks
of councils that they should enforce
the rule which provides that papers on
passage shall nolbe taken from th
committee boxes or from the posses
sion of the clerks, excetit for the pur
pose of immediate examination. Air.
Nealis explained that the measure was
no criticism of the clerks but was for
the purpose of abolishing a custom
that had cnusei annoyance and trouble
hec.uise of the absence of current pa
pers when they were most wanted.
Before adjournment a number of
measures of minor Importance passed
third and first und second readings.
IN SELECT COUNCIL.
Ordinance in Relation to the Portico
Nuisance Introduced.
In (he absence of President Sander
son, Alt. Alanley was chosen to preside
over what proved to lie a very brie'
session of select council, and one de
void of particular interest, except iu
relation to a portico ordinance intro
duced by Air. Wagner.
The ordinance provides for the issu
Ing of permits for portico construction
under certain conditions. The words
"porte cochere" signifying a covered
carriuge entrance, also appear In th
measure. According to Its provisions,
porticos may be erected In front of the
entrances of churches, theaters and
hotels, provided in the latter case that
the hotel shall have a street frontage
of at least fifty feet, and that it shall
contain not less than one hundred
sleeping rooms for guests; in any case
the portico shall not occupy a width I
of over thirty reet. and must not be
higher than the window sill of he story
above the street. The fine for violating
any or all of the provisions of the ordi
nance Is from $50 to $100. It was re
ferred for printing.
A resolution was Introduced hy Mr.
Alanley providing that the street com
missioner shall prohibit travel over the
bridge at the foot of Race street until
the bridge is put In repair, provided,
however, that the street commissioner
shall proceed In accordance with the
advice of the city solicitor. The reso
lution was adopted and concurred In by
the commissioners.
PADDED CELL RKCOAIAIENDED.
Alayor Bailey's letter recommending
a padded cell for the Central Police
station was referred to the police com
mittee. The nomination by the mayor of
Joseph Brill as Inspector of the build
ing of the Alonsey avenue sewer was
referred to committee. The same ac
tion would have been taken with the
nomination of John McNamnia. as in
spector of the paving of Alahon court,
but for the use of the words "sewer in
spector" In the mayor's communica
tion. No action was taken on the nom
ination. Dunn Brothers were the only bid
ders for paving Kressler court w ith vit
rified brick, between Ollv und - Pine
streets. The bid was considered favor
able by the pavement committee, and
accepted as follows: $1 60 per square
yard for paving; 60 cents and Si cents

To-morrow evening brings to the
Frothing ham one of the most famous
Irish comediennes, Alaggie Cline, who
will he seen In the latest and most Im
portant dramatic novelty of the season,
"On Broadway." Familiar scenes and
incidents and events of the present are
perhaps as nopulur with the average
theati r-goers us anything that the
dramatist can put Into' a play. This
undoubtedly has much to do with the
success of "On Broadway, the new
Play that Clay AI. Green and Ben Teal
wrote and staged for Alaggie Cline. Tne
part given her was one that many
brave women are acting and doing on
the stage of life to-day, the over-coining
dilllculties brought on by the ne
glectand worse of men; and in the
role of Alary Brady. Alaggie Cline car
ries out the work of restoring her fath
er's credit and business In the midst
of scenes thut are familiar to more
Americans than any other parts of the
world, the places that are recognized
us being typicul of New York and New
York life.
Very few farce comedies live to see
the uge which is resting upon the
shoulders of "A Pair of Jacks," which
comes to the Frothlngham next Thurs
day evening. "A Pair of Jacks" Is one
of the best efforts of an exceedingly
bright w liter, but like all farce comedies
It reouires the services of bright and
clever people to make It thoroughly en
joyable. This fact .Messrs. Rich and
Alaeder recognized in selecting this
season's company, and the result is.
there are but few attractions of a like
nature that excel It.
At tlie Academy of Music next Mon
da yeveiiing a grand scenic production
of "Richard III ' will be given. A
special car load of new scenery from
the studio of the well known artist,
Thomas G. Muses, being used in the
staging of the tragedy. Air. Griffith
has iu a measure broken down the bar
riers of tradition, giving un original
conception of the character, und Intro
ducing some new and startling ideas.

cially by the appearance of Air. Bis

prince nmons b .ritones may without
question number last night's achieve
ments as one of his greatest successes.
Whether as actor or singer his per
formance was almost beyond criti
cism." MORE PAVE FOR CLAY AVENUE.
Wanted for Its orlli Intention by
Xovv Properly Owners.
A continuous asphalt pavement on
Clay avenue to the Dunmore line is
wanted by many of the property own
ers on that thoroughfare. Asphalt is
now laid as far as pine street and if
the street was paved on I he four blocks
between Pine and Poplar streets, there
would be from that point a continuous
stretch of artificial roadbed into the
he.irt of the city.
1'P to a year ago only a few resi
dences were on Clay avenue north of
Pine street. Beyond that point there
was no regularity of street intersec
tions, the pvenue itself was not graded
and very little of the bordering land
had been sold by the Lackawanna Iron
and Coal company. At present George
B. Smith, president of the Erie and
Wyoming railroad: Frank Carluccl,
a wealthy contractor, and others have
started or nearly finished building
handsome residences and manv lots
have been sold bv the Lackawanna
Iron and Coal company to desirable
purchasers. These people are, many of
them, anxious for a pavement anil it Is
not Improbable that a petition for one
will be presented to councils during
the winter and an ordinance passed
bi f ire spring.
Clay avenue, as it skirts the hill
back of and beyond the Aloses Taylor
hospital Is one of the most sightly,
healthful and breezy residence streets
Imaginable. Citvward. it is already
lined with the homes of well-to-do fam
ilies, but these will not as a whole equal
some thut are soon to be completed on
the newly ooened part of the avenue.
If the present paving plan matures.
Clay avenue will have been paved its
entire length.

After only half on hour's deliberation
the Jury In the case of the Logan .Man
ufacturing company against B. Joseph
son and others Judgment creditors of
the t'e'urict furniture firm of David
son A: Cohen, brought in a Verdict for
the plaintiiT. This gives to the Logan
company posse-is-ion of $J,600 worth of
furniture seized by the execution cred
itors and incidentally alliruis the con
tention ot the plaintiff that Davidson
Cohen made fraudulent representa
tions ir orcVr to secure crei'it.
The case v.as on trial al! day
Wednesday and wns not given to the
Jury until neniiv 4 o'clock yesterday.
D. .Mendelssohn ami B. Josephson were
the Tirincipn! witnesses heard during
the morning. Their testimony was to
establish that the:- had actually ad
vanced inone; to Davidson & Cohen
and refute the contention of the plain
tiff that they were not bona fide cred
itors. A mild sensation was created dur
ing tlie mornim; when one of the wit
nesses, I!, .losophson. refused to an
swer the question of .Mr. O'Atalley. one
of the attorneys for the plaintiff, al
leging that the attorney had assault
ed him at his store, shortly after the
sheriff's sale, because he refused to
allow Air. o'Al'alley to see the goods.
He had a grudge ugalnst Air. O'Alal
ley, and he would prefer not to speak
to him. Court declined to consult the
witness' ureferences and directed that
he answer counsel's questions, Jo
sephson sullenly compiled.
Jl'DGE EDWARDS' CHARGE.
Judge Edwards made an exhaustive
and painstaking review of the euse in
his charge to the Jury, and told them
that the principal thing for them to
determine was whether or not the de
fendants hud been guilty of making
false representations In order to secure
credit. If. in their opinions, fraud hus
been nrepetrated. they should, he said,
find for the plaint ill'. They found for
the plaintiff.
By agreement of the attorneys a Ver
dict for the defendant was taken in
the case of Frank Botiin and others
against D. A. Boone & Co. The plain
tiffs aro trustees of the Polish Catho
lic church, over which Rev. Richard
Aust recently held pastoral sway. The
defendant is a Baltimore firm to which
the ex-pastor was indebted for certain
supplies. When Father Aust was de
posed from the pastorate of the church
the Baltimore people seized upon his
houses, household goods und the like,
and proceeded to sell them. The trus
tees of the church laid claim to the
goods, alleging that they belonged to
the congregation, und not the pastor, i
and brought proceedings to prove this.
The amicable adjustment of th case
was effected by the congregation set
tling with the Baltimore linn for the
ex-pastor's debt.
SI'IT ON jrix.lArlS.NT NOTE.
Just before adjournment the rase of
Edwards & Bint hold against .Martha
Pritchard was begun, with Hulslander
& Vosburg for the plaintiffs and D. W.
Brown anil J. W. Carpenter for the
defendant. The suit Is to recover on
a $200 Judgment note which Airs. Pritch
ard gave for her store bill. The de
fense puts in the plea that Airs. Pritch
iird signed her name to the note In
Ignorance of Its real character und
further avers that ul all events u wife
can not give a note ou her property in
payment of her husband's debts.
MEETING OF ENGINEERS' CLUB.
Number ol' Interesting Matters Con
sidered I. 'si Might.
An interesting monthly meeting of
the Scranton Engineers' club was held
last night. Captain W. A. Alay pre
sided. The chili is about to move into
Its new quarters in the board of trade
building, and A. II. Storrs was author
ized to carry out the plans for furn
ishing as proposed by his committee.
A. D. Bliicklngton brought up the
mutter of establishing a bench murk
in Scranton. A bench mark is a stone
or a post or any object located at it
given point, say on the court house
squure or some central point, from
which to measure altitudes. A com
mittee consisting of James Archhald.
Air. Blackington and Montrose Barn
ard, was appointed to lake the matter
in hand.
The question of establishing a true
meridian for Scranton was discussed,
and a committee consisting of A. B.
Dunning, Jr., A. II. Storrs und C. C.
Rose was appointed to confer with the
county commissioners with regard to
the matter.
The business session was followed by
a paper on "India nnd Her Railways,"
bv James Churchward, C. E.. of New
York. He had many years' experience
In Southern Asia and was competent
to treat the subleet. He did not draw
any comparisons between the railways
ol' this country and India, except what
wns contained in tlie statement that
they are built very chcup. The labor
there Is very cheap nnd the govern
ment soldiers are put to work building
the railroads instead of loafing around
the barracks.
Al) the great railway lines of India
converge at the narrow pass in the
lllmalava mountains; so that in case
of wtw the armies can be massed u
that point, ond ran control the move
ments of invading forces. Air. Church
ward spoke of the effect that the fre
coinage of silver has on the life .if
trade in 'ndia. und from his descrip
tion of it the American people can
congratulate themselves on escaping
the woes that follow in its trail.

Case of William Waruer.
Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: -1 am Infoi nie.J thai William War
ner, the poor fellow who went violent Iv
crazy at .Mount I'ocono and was brought
to the Scrunioii station house, was left
iu the cell into which he was thrust ou
arrival In this i lly, from Saturday morn
ing till Tuesday without medical uf.eili
unee, or, in fact, without any help.
If this is t:o. I don't wonder I hut the
poor fellow tore out the water pipes, et,.
Who Is resuonsible for such neglect of a
sufferer'.' It seems to me the Hist IhliiK
to be done In such a ease would be to
caU in a physician. This evidently Is a
case for official inquiry. I hope whoever !.
responsible for the neglect will have '. ::e
matter brought home to them.
Yours in the Interest of humanity,
Richard Hlorns.

and besides worked up many !
odd short lenjiths of mouldino;.
Six hundred and seventy-two :
frames by actual count. If

FAITH CURE A GOOD THING.
Iu Some Uicar, but It li a Failure
in MoMinch Troubles.
.Mere faith will not digest your food
for you, w ill not give you an appetite,
will not increase your flesh and
strengthen vour nerves and heart, but
Stuart's Dysnensut Tablets will do
these things, iHcaunf they nre com
posed of the elements of digestion, they
contain the Juices, acid and peptones
necessary to the (iiuestlon and assimi
lation of all wholesome food.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets will di
gest food it phi'vl In u jar or bottle
in water heated to lis degrees, und they
w ill do d much more en'cvttvely when
taken into tN stomach after meals,
whether you have faith thai they will
or not.
They invigorate the stomach, make
pure Idood and strong nerves, in the
only way tintl nature can do it. and
thai is, from pluily ol" wholesome food
well divested. It is not what we eat.
but what we digest that does us good.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are sold
by nearly all druggists at 5U cents for
