TO REGULATE THE

Commissioners Will Adopt Judge Ben
nett's Opinion as Their Guide.
SUBSTANCE OF THE DOCUMENT
Only 50 Cents Tor Serving a Subpoena
No Mutter How Many Names May
lio I'pon H"Circular" Mileage
Not AllowablcConstablo li Not
Entitled to Extra Mileage for His
Prisoner or Witness, or to Auy
Mileage at All for Making Kcturus
to Court.
At present in this county the consta
bles are Biven the benefit of the doubt
in all or u linos t all ambiguous questions
relutiiiK to fees; In fact they have been
virtually allowed, so It Is freely admit
ted around the court house, to virtually
interpret the statutes themselves. In
making out their costs they took ad
vantage of every vague point In the
law to pull up their costs and In the
absence of a definite ruling on these
matters the county olliciuls were not In
a position to dispute their claims, ul
thout;h believing and feeling almost
sure that many of them were illegal
and exhorbitant.
At a recent formal session of the
county commissioners It was agreed to
take this matter up and to remedy what
they. In common with everybody, ex
cept the constables themselves, believed
to be an evil. In the absence of a bet
ter and more thorough Interpretation
of the statutes relating to the question
it was decided to secure a copy of the
opinion recently handed down by Judge
L. H. lfennett, of YVilkes-Harre, which,
while it dealt only with particular Items
arising in a peculiar case slated, cov
ered nearly all the main questionable
points.
UILL PASSED UPON.
Jn the cusp stated which Judge Ron
net t wus called to pass upon the con.
stable's bill was as follows:
1. Making returns to regular June
term of quarter sessions $ 1 09
2. Traveling luo miles from Hazleton
to Wiikes-Harre and return In
making foregoing returns 10 00

14. Traveling of attached witness, 50
miles from Hazleton to Wllkes
Barre In charge of constable, at
0 cents 3 00
Total $S7 90
In recapitulating his exhaustive opin
ion on the matter Judge Ilennett says
In substance: A constable who was
elected since the passage of the act of
in Luzerne county and after such
election made his return to the regular
term of quarter sessions, Is not entitled
to any fee or travel pay for making
such return.
A constable Is entitled to a fee of $t
for executing' a warrant and a like
sum for conveying a prisoner to jail
under committment. In the two cases
last referred to 10 cents a mile is al
lowed to the constable for each mile
traveled direct, but not for each mile
circular. "For serving subpoenus, CO
cents" only allows that sum for such
service even though made upon two
persons.
IS A SHERIFF'S OFFICER.
Where a constable renders services
which pertain to the olllce of sheriff,
he Is not acting In the character of a
constable, but rather as a sheriff's nfli
cer, and comes under the act of IStiS.
The latter act prescribes $1 as his fee
for servinu an attachment against a
witness, but makes an allowance for
mileage for the witness. The county
is not liable for extra mileage or travel
pay for prisoners or witnesses In charge
of constables; whether or not the coun
ty would be liable for actual and nec
essary disbursements, is not decided.
In accordance with the foregoing
opinion Judge Hennett makes up the
amount of judgment to be entered In
the case under consideration as fol
lows: 1. Executing warrant of arrest ? 1 00
2. Conveying prisoner to jail 1 00
3. Travel pay 115 miles, Hazleton to
Philadelphia, in executing war
rant at 10 cents 11 50
4. Travel pay 50 miles, Hazleton to

oner to jail, at 10 cents 5 CO

'VARSITY MEN SANG AND PLAYED.
Excellent Coucert f.ivcu Last Sight
in V. M. C. A. Hall.
Several hundred persons thoroughly
enjoyed the excellent concert given in
Young Men's Christian association hall
last night by the glee, banjo and man
dolin clubs of the University of Penn
sylvania. The hearty applause und nu
merous encores proved with what favor
the efforts of the 'varsity boys were
received.
The stage was draped with red and
blue, the university colors, and there
was also a liberal display of the same
colors throughout the auditorium. Sus
pended from the proscenium arch was
a large red keystone with the letter
"P" in the center in blue.
As the opening number of the pro
gramme the glee club sang "Hall Penn
sylvania," which prepared the audience
for the good things to come. Other
numbers rendered by the glee club were
"A Footlight Fancy" and the conclud
ing number "lied and Ulue." Mr.
Dewing and the glee sang "Pennsyl
vania," which was arranged by Will
lam P. Goeckel, of Wllkes-liarro, lead

PLANS FOR A PAID
FIRE DEPARTMENT
Considered by Engineers and Fire De
partment Committees.
SUGGESTION OF CHIEF HICKEY
Wants to Put the Department on a
Paid Footing in a Small Wuy at the
Ucgiuning of the Next Fiscal Year.
Four Combination Chemical and
Hose Wagons Suggested-Whcre
They Will Ue Located.
Another movement for a paid fire de
partment was inaugurated lust night
at a meeting of the board of engineers
and tire department committees of
councils.
The meeting was called by Chief
Illckey for the purpose of considering
the department estimates for 1S97.
There were present, besides Chief
Hlckey, District Engineers Louis
Schwuss, F. W. Warlike, James J.
O'Malley, Charles Kaynor and M. Mc
Manus; Messrs. Fred Durr, M. J. Hums,
Horatio T. Fellows and Edward
Frable, of
committee of
James Molr,
Gordon and
the lire department
select council; Messrs.
Simon Thomns, P. F.
Edward Wenzel of
the lire department committee of
the lower branch. Fred Durr pre
sided and H. C. Hatton, clerk ot
the common council, took the min
utes of the proceedings.
Chief Illckey's plan as unfolded to
the committee was to first of all estab
lish the department on a paid busis
and take care of the various other ex-
Readers.
oooc 000000000000
penses ufter the salary list had been
attended to.
THE CHIEF'S PLAN.
He thought by economizing here and
there the ordinary expenses could be
cut down to such an extent that it
will be necessary to ask for but little
more than was allowed by the esti
mates committee last year, to put the
department on a paid basis In a small
way at the very beginning of the com
ing fiscal year.
Hi:i Idea is to engage eighteen addi
tional permanent men and distribute
them among the' central city compa
nies, with possibly an extra man for nn
outside company where' one is particu
larly needed, and gradually Increase
the number as the city can afford it,
until the whole department will be
made pp of paid men. Lust year the
(ire department was allowed $:!t,400.
With $40,000 and the cutting down of
the various running expenses, Chief
Hit-key thinks it will be possible to
make the start for a paid department.
The committee was unanimously In fa
vor of the plan and. decided to urge Its
adoption upon the estimates commit
tee. MORE CHEMICALS WANTED.
Four new combination chemical and
hose wagons were also suggested and
favored. It Is proposed to place one
in the new Nay Aug engine house; an
other with the Columblas on the West
Side, the third with the Excelsiors in
Providence, und Hie fourth with the
Reliefs, wlio ai" to be moved down
from Petersburg to some point near the
Moses Taylor hospital, or even nearer
to the central city.
Another meeting will be called for
next week when final action will be
taken on these and other items of the
chief's estimates.
