LOOKED m VAIN
FOR THE DEAD MAN
Supposed to Have Died From a Dose of
'Knock Out Drops."
WHITE HOUSE WAS THE SCENE
Klmer Isby of New Street Was the
Man liut Wi s Working When the
Coroner Was Looking for Hi.u to
Hold nn luiurst""I.uUtirr Thought
it a tiood Joke.
Chief of Police Rohling. County De
tective Leyshoni and Coroner Long
street heard yesterday that a man liv
ing on New street died Sunday night
from the effects of "knock-out drops"
given to him Saturday evnlng in the
While House saloon, at the corner of
Penn avenue and Center street.
County lletectlve Leyshon directed
Coroner Longstrtet to notify the un
dertaker not to put any embalming
lluiil into the body so that the contents
of the man's stomach might be ana
lyzed. Mr. Leyshon did not know the
(I. ad man's name, but had neurit that
he lived on New street.
lputy Coroner Pennypacker went to
New street In the afternoon and after
wulklng along the street from one end
to the other failed to locate the house
and came back to his ottlce. Hy this
time the fact became known that there
was nobody dead from such a cause;
but that a man named Klnu-r lsby had
been drugged Saturday night and bad
got around all right und was working.
Arthur La Bar is responsible for the
story. He went to the White House
yesterday morning and told the bar
tender thut the man who was "doped"
Saturday night had 'turned up ms
toes." He said that three doctors had
worked at him all day, but without
success, ami just before he died he
made a confession thut he was in the
company of three women nnd a man
ill the White House and that he got
something in a glass of beer that set
him to sleep.
WOMEN IN THK CASE.
Chief Holding by noon time had
learned the namnt of the women and
the man. The women are Pearl West
cott, Lena lirlnk and Cella Clur.
Miss Clark Is tho one who was with
Frank Sihults. the hostler who was
mysteriously shot out in i ire-en Itidge
on the night of Sept. 8 last.
Fred Dimler, a cook, who lives on
Hemlock street, South Side, is the
man. The chief sent Lieutenant
Zang and Patrolman Flaherty out
after him and they picked him
up on Lackawanna avenue about
3 o'clock in the afternoon. Dlniler was
brought to the police station on a war
rant alleging ntteiunted robbery sworn
out before Aldermun Millar.
The bnrtendT at the White House
admitted that there was a man in the
pluce Saturday night who appeared to
be drugged. Ie wus sitting on a chair
with his head leaning over on his
hands on the table before him. The
three women mentioned nnd Dimler
were in the room and they drew his
attention to the fellow asleep. The
bartender roused him up. gave him a
glass of seltzer. In which some salt was
mixed. After another doso of the same
kind the man left the pluce for home,
WHAT LA UAR SAW.
When he came Into the place he had
nearly $50 and a gold watch and chain.
Some friend, presumably La Har. took
tho valuables away from him and left
him there. La Har is quoted us saying
that be saw Ilml-r with one nrm
nround lsby and feeling with the other
hand for Isby's pocket, und left when
La Har came in and saw him. It was
on the strength of this statement that
the warrant was sworn out for Dimler.
Isby Is a railroader and works for the
Delaware, Lackawanna and West 'I'll
company. He and La Par are friends.
Chief Holding had a conversation
with Isby last night. He said he didn't
believe he got anything stronger than
whisky to drink, and he exonerated
Dimler of doing anything to him.
The warrant against Dimler was
dropped and Chief Holding felt like
prosecuting La Har for circulating the
story of Isby's death. He did not do
it for any vicious purpose, but he
thought It would be a good Joke. La
liar is the person .that figured In the
Kinsley Investigation. He lives next
door to lsby.
FOR A PUBLIC MUSEUM. .
Lackawanna Institute of History nnd
Sicucc following a ootl Project.
President Frank E. Piatt, First Vice
President A. W. Dickson and Procura
tor Churles LeRoy wheeler, of the
Lackawanna Institute of History ami
Belt-nee, had a conference last night
with Chairman M. J. Hums, C. F.
Wagner and W. H. Thomas, of the
park committee of select council, with
a view to securing an acre of ground
In Nay Aug park for the erection of a
museum after the plan of the Museum
of Art In Central Park.
The committee expressed themselves
as heartily in favor of the project and
agreed to report to council a proposi
tion' which the institute will prepare.
It Is feared, however, that legal com
plications will arise which may kill
the project. In the deeds for the land
It is expressly stipulated thnt If the
plot should be used for any other than
park purposes it will revert to its
original owners. It is also doubtful
whether or not councils would have au
thority to make the grant, even If the
Lackawnnna Iron and Coal company,
the original owners, should waive the
reversion clause of the lease in this
particular Instance.
At all events the institute proposes to
make a proposition which will give the
museum such a public character that
It will virtually be a city institution, as
Is the public library In this city, the
Central Park Museum of Art in New
Yotk, and similar Institutions In other
cities. After establishing the public
character of the museum It is thought
there will be little trouble experienced
in escaping the reversion clause In the
deed. Councils will be asked to favor
the matter as far as they consistently
can, and if any legal obstacles aris?
ask the city solicitor to find a way to
surmount them.
The park committee assured the offi
cers of the Institute that if they are
willing to make fair concessions to tho
public that councils will doubtlessly
approve of the project and grant their
request unanimously If the lnw Inter
poses no Insurmountable obstacles.
BRANDA'S BICYCLE STOLEN.
Token from in Front of His Orlice on
Spruce Street.
The bicycle of Frank liramla was stol
en about 2 o'clock yesterday afternoon
from in front of his -office, 414 Spruce
street. The wheel was a white one und
was the only one In the city of that
eolor that had a brake attached to it.
Its number was SlrttlS. Sir. Rranda no
tified the police of the theft and the
authorities up and down the valley were
asked to keep on the lookout for the
bicycle.
HE WASN'T TWENTY-0NE.
Suit Asninst I.ivcrymnn Iiellcs for the
Wages of a Runaway Vonnc Man.
A lively civil case was tried In Al-d'-rman
Howe's ofHce yesterday. P. J.
Walsh, of the West Side, brought suit
against Liveryman W. Belles for wages
due Walsh's minor son. Michael. At
torney Richard A. Rourke represented
the plaintiff and Attorney George Wat
son appeared for the defendant.
The evidence adduced showed that
the son Is within six months of being
a voter. He did not relish the way he
was treated at home and left with the
determination of never darkening the
parentul dour again. Tnls was last
July. He secured employment with
Mr. Belles and has since been working
for him as teamster.
Mrs. Walsh wtnt to the stable a few
days afro to see her son. She was ac
companied by a club, and he escaped a
drubbing by sliding into a feed chute.
Mr. iiellcs is mitislleel to pay the wages
to the boy or his parents, but doesn't
want to pay both. While th case was
going on the boy left the office with the
remark that ho would go where they
wouldn't stop his wages, and the last
seen of him he, was making his way
through the Delaware, Lackawanna
and Western yarj.
THE MAN-0'.WARS MAN.
Succssful Opening of Thomas 12.
Shea's Engagement.
Standing room was the only thing
purchaseable at the Academy of Music
last night at 8 o'clock, und even of
that there was not an abundance. It
was the first night of the engagement
of Thomas E. Shea and his company,
and "The Man o' Wars Man" wus
wisely chosen as the opening bill. It is
a drama of stiong human int"rst und
Is pitched In a patriotic key that is
well calculated to arou:ie the enthusi
asm of n't American auilU nce.
The action of the d'-amu revolves
about Captain Jack Conway, of the
I'liiteil States warship New Orbans. a
thorough patriot, whose love of coun-
THOMAS K. SIIKA.
try nnd devotion to duty lends him into
a series of thrilling adventures. Cup
tain Conway is impersonated by Mr.
Shea, nnd his faithful portrayal of the
character last night held the wrapt at
entlon of the audience. At the end of
cuch act storms of applause swept over
the house and the curtain had to be
rung up again an again to enable the
actors to bow their acknowlegements.
The drama is well staged, the scene
at Gibraltar, where the war council
is in session being particularly effec
tive. Mr. Shea Is supported by a good
company, Louise Hoefer Nesmith, Rose
Adtdle, Elinor Francis Shea, Henry
Testa, Frank Huoman nnd llnrilni-r
Crane coming in for a share of the
praise In-stowed upon the star. The
drama is enlivened by comedy Intro
duced by Frank Huoman and Rose
Adolle.
"The Man o' Wars Man" will be re
pented at the Academy of Music to
night und tomorrow afternoon.
THE GERMAN REFORMATION.
Will lie Knneled by Picture, Hong
nnd Story at the Frothingliiun.
An epoch in the history, the German
reformation, will bo enacted by pic
ture, song and story ut the Frothing
ham Thursday. Friday nnd Saturday
evenings of this week to raise money
to establish young men's patriotic
j rending rooms. Two hundred persons
of this city will assist and wear six
teenth century costumes. The enter
tainment includes lectures, views, in
cidents, processions, etc. The story of
Luther's life will be told by Mrs. H. K.
Monroe with realistic forcefulness. The
comprehensive uniqueness of its metn
od of development makes It an under
taking of large scope.
The allegorical processions Intro
duced at the opening and closing of the
entertainment are pronounced admir
ably brilliant by competent critics.
This entertainment has repeatedly
proved Itself an entertainment of singu
lar attractiveness, and one of the most
delightful possible means of Instruc
tion. The whole accoutrement of the
lecture is so variedly complete that th"
picture lingering on the auditor's mind
is striking indeed.
Aside from the fact that the enter
tainment Is highly interesting nnd well
worth the admission ft-;-, it will np
peal to the public for patronage be
cause it is given to raise money to es
tablish reading rooms. When given
here several years ago. this entertain
ment gave entire satisfaction. The
sale of reserved seats at the box office
opens this morning.
At Milton, two months ago, not a re
served seat could be gotten on either
day of the entertainment. "Highly re
ligious yet educational, instructive and
of thrilling interest from first to last"
Is what the New York Tribune says of
It. a

protested against tile s.-lzure alleging
that it needed the land itself more thuu

tioit was secured restraining the rail
road company from entering upon pos
session of the land. The matter was
taken to the Miprt-ine court and there
the injunction wus continued until the
case could be tried before a master.
Jude ltctinett, of Wilkt s-Hnrre, then
an attorney, was appointed master. He
decided that the railroad company
should have 12 feet of the strip. Yes
