FIELD DAY FOR COMMON SCOLDS Two Women Tims Accused .ncapc Without i:un Mining to I'uy the Costs anil (lit! Third Most Likely Would Hnto Kxpurluiiucd Sliuilnr Treatment Had hlio Not Ab sented JIcrit)lf--Otliur Cns.es in Crimiunl Court. At the opening of court yesteiday mottling the juty In the case of Peter Diler, chaiged by 12-yeai-ohl Mni gaiet Kline with attempted cilmlnal assnult, brought In a eidlct of not guilty. Tlie Jury had been out but 20 minutes when they came to un ngiee ment. In the case of Timothy McNulty, charged by William Allspaugli with having stolen pigeons, the juiy came In with a veullct of not guilty of steal-. I(ng, but guilty of lecelvlng stolen goods. Tin ee common scold cases weie down for trial yesteiday and as is usual they attracted a murder tilal crowd. One ot the trio didn't appeal when called and she will no doubt doubly le giot it us a capias was issued lor her, then again It wasn't a bad day for common scolds as both the uthets went scot ftee. The fit st case came from the Nine teenth waid, Anna llelliing was the defendant and Lena Bono the pioSeeil tilx. The complaint was along the usunl lines that the defendant scolded eveiybody in the nelghboihood and made lite buidensome foi eveiyone liv ing within heating distance of her iofcu. Judge Gunster told the juiy that a common scold Is a woman who will take to the public highway and assail with her tongue anybody who passes by. The juiy concluded that Mis. Hellrlng hadn't done anything like that and put the costs on the pios ecutilx. air. O'Bt len was the defend ant's attorney. A CASE FROJI WINTON. The next case was fiom Wlnton. Catheilne Walsh was defendant' and Catheiine Toisey piosecutiix Befoie the taking of testimony had pioceeded far, ail. Junes fur the commonwealth, w itlidiew the piosecutlon, being satis lied that it was not even as stiong as the pievlous one. Timlin & aicAndiew made their debut In this ease as de fendant's counsel. Kate Flanaghan was the thlid al leged common sculd who did not an swer for tiial. Patilck J. Waid Is the piosecutor. Theie aie about a do.en cases on this week's list, resulting fiom the lead between two Polish families, the one cetiteiing ubout Kev. Biuno Iwan owskl and the othei led by the edltois of the local Polish papei, Joseph A. Li plnskl and Daniel Langofskl. Yestei -day the Hi st of them came to tiial. Langofskl was the defendant and Con aiolske, an Iwanowskle, was the piosecutor aiolske alleges that he went to tiansact some business with Llplnski and without any pnnocatlon was set upon by Langofskl and Lipin ski and kicked into the stieet. The defense claimed that aiolske came to the office in an intoxicated condition to make some piotest or anotliei and as he peislbted In acting disoideily the editorial depaitment, after the man ner of eveiy well legulated ediloiial depaitment hustled him into the stieet. aiEEK LOOKING aiAN. Langofskl is a meek looking little man w Ith blue eyes, pale face, light hair and an incipient blonde mustache. When he took the stand, however, theie was no complaint about the house accoustic.s. The way he scattered the Polish language mound the big new court room made the chandelleis iattle and caused the cioss wltes near the ceiling to keep up a continuous hum such as one would hear standing near a telegraph pole on aiount Pocono on a leal windy day. He didn't beseech any one to loan him their eais. He took free and foieible possession of them. Next the audience was tieated to a humoious closing speech by air. Welsh, attorney for the defense, followed by a glowingly eloquent tiaglc closing by air. Beitholf, who assisted the dlstiict attorney in the prosecution. The case was given to I he juiy at adjournment. Baniuei tunitn, a colored man, was tiled tor assaulting Abraham Silver. The defendant alleged that Silver at tacked him Mist and bit his thumb and that he had to choke Sihei to make him let go. The juiy said not guilty and di Ided the costs, air. Vldaver as sisted the state and air. Beale appear ed for the defense. Constable James Walsh, the same In dividual who, with James aicGuity. was, on aionday found guilty of assault on John Sobeiloskl, a Twenty-lhst waid Polander, was yesteiday piosecutor of a chaige of assault and batteiy upon a public olllcei against John Quinn, pio piietor of a hotel on the Back load. Last ainy, the constable came up from Lackawanna township with a warrant for the an est of ailchael Quinn, a In other of the defendant. He went In to the hotel looking for his piisoner and lelused to leave when 'the pio- piietor directed him to. A tusle en sued and both men were pretty badly used up. Quinn, however, getting the woist of it. The juiy thought they wuo equally guilty and divided the costs. HUSH BUnCLAKY CASE. Hugh J. Bush, clmiged with statutory but glut y, was called for tiial in the morning but did not appear and had his bail foi felted. Ho came Into couit dining the afternoon nnd th'iough his attorney, air WelHh, sought to hae the case continued on the giound that his pilnclpal witness was laid up with a bpi ained ankle. Detective Loyshon was despatched to the home of the witness to ascei tain just how badly the witness Is lnjuied and upon his finding will depend In a gieat measuie whether or not the case will go on today. A doc tor's ceitlllcate to the eflect that the witness was unable to leave the Iiousj was presentcci but It went for naught. Timothy Brady, charged with lobbing depots along the Ontailo and Western load; John Cumey, charged with ag giavnted assault and batteiy; Aithur Whltney.chnrged with felonious wound ing and Susa Vllag, the prosecutilx In the last named case failed to put In an appearance when called and the sheiltf In consequence Is now after them.

For the past few days woik at the Leggott's cieek shaft has bien sus pended owing to a huge quantity of water which coveied the loads in the Ckuk eln near the foot of the shaft. Wheie this water comes from Is not positively known, but the supposition Is that It comes from the poitlon of the hilne lecently affected by a squeeze. It Is known that a huge body of wa ter had coleeted and the foot ot the shaft In the Claik vein being con side! ably lower than the place where this water lodged, it is not impioli able that the water giadually forced Its way to this paiticular place. The water was Hist noticed last Sat uiday, and as It continued to use with nlaimlng rapidity, men weie sent in and the larse pumps put Into opera tion. .By hard woik and the pumps constantly wot king the water gained no headway, Aionday night the pump bioke and dining the cessation of op eiatlons which tollowed tin water rose to a height of neatly thiee feet. Aleii weie at once sent In to icpalr the dis able machine and last nluht the watet was loweied considerably. When woik will be lesumed is not positively known, but if, dining the night the quantity of watei decreased suillclent ly, operations will be lesumed today. AIOLLY BAWN AND LA BELLE RUSSE.
