HER COMPLIMENTS TO MISS WILLARD Slio Clinrp.cs Her with Ilcing n Hum bug! nn Insincere Wo mini and n I.lur anil (Jives tho ltcnsons Why Slio Thinks So--rauny Davenport L nnil tho Poet Whltticr Referred to Without Ccremony--Wliut the Other Witnesses Sntil. When court adjourned yesterday nf tcrnoonMlssAnna Dickinson was on the stand giving evidence in rebuttal ot tho defense offered by those who placed her in Dnnvllle Insane asylum. She either emphatically denied or explained in quite a satisfactory way all of tho circumstances detailed by the witnesses for the defense to prove that she was mentally unsound. The court room was crowded with ladles who listen with the most eager nttentlon to every word thnt fell fiom the lips of the wit ness. The trial is now rapidly drawing to a close and unless something un looked for occurs the remainder of the testimony will bo all heard today. Dr. Wetherlll's cross examination was resumed nfter court opened In tho morning. He said thait during his pres ence In court for the last ten days he did not observe anything about the plaintiff that would Indicate that she Is a paranoiac, although paranoia is apt to be aggravated by excitement. The examination of Dr. Wetherlll was com pleted at 11 o'clock and the defense rested. Mrs. Jessie Wlntersteln, who was an attendant at Danville asylum at the time Miss Dickinson was there was called In rebuttal and contradicted the other asylum attendants by saying that sho waited on Miss Dickinson and never heard her say anything about crystals or poison In drink offered to her. She denied thnt she over told Mrs. Mar.ch that she thought Miss Dickinson was "off." BOOKMAN nUGGL.ES. Mrs. Lewis McDonald, of Wllkes Bnrre, was next called. For thirty years she has been acquainted with the plaintiff and never knew her to use whisky to excess and never saw her do anything to Indicate that she was Insane. Her examination was produc tive of much amusement on account of the tart nature of her replies to the questions of the attorneys. Homer Ruggles was the first wit ness called after the noon recess. Hc has resided In Plttston for over fifteen years and conducts a book store nt that place. During the years 1S89 and 1880 Miss Anna Dickinson frequently visited his store and he talked with her on all kinds of subjects. He never heard her say anything about a consplraoy nnd did not notice any change in her man ner or appearance toward the close of 1890. Her speech did not In any way Indicate to hlu that she was Insane. Mrs. Sally J. Ackerly, who has been the plaintiff's constant companion in court durlnir the two trials, was the next witness. Her husband Is George Ackerly and she resides In New York. She first met Miss Dickinson on April 2, 1891, at Goshen. N. Y., where tho plaintiff went to attend Dr. Sew ard's private sanitarium, of which wit ness had charge. Miss Dickinson now resides with witness and her husband In New York city. She has seen her almost dally since April 2, 1891, and never observed anything Irrational In her speech or manner. She never saw her Intoxicated or knew of her to use liquor to excess. Miss Dickinson did not receive tho gold cure treatment at Dr. Seward's sanitarium. She saw Miss Dickinson drink whisky medi cinally and use It for bathing. On cross examination Mrs. Ackerly said she was In charge of Dr. Seward's sanitarium and was sure that he did not clve tho plaintiff the gold cure. If he did she would have known of It. She denied emphatically that Dr. Sew ard had forbidden Miss Dickinson to drink liquor, but that nevertheless he went to witness' room one morning and found that she had been sitting up with Miss Dickinson nil night drinking and smoking. She also as emphatically denied that she was addicted to smok ing or that she was drunk when she went to Plttston to get Miss Dickin son's effects in the spring of 1891. To her knowledge Miss Dickinson does not smoke. HEARD THE LECTURES. On redirect examination she said she was at Hermann's and the Broadway theaters In May, 1891, when Miss Dick inson delivered addresses. The plain tiff's language was not Irrational and very few persons left the theaters while the lectures were In progress. George Ackerly, husband of the pre ceding witness, was next called. He was at Dr. Seward's sanitarium when Miss Dickinson" came there. She was not charged anything while she stayed with them. He confirmed his wife's, statement that there was not an under standing between them and Miss Dick inson by which they were to receive a portion of the verdict in the case, if one was recovered. A number of letters written by Miss Susan E. Dickinson to friends with ref erence to Anna's condition after she was taken to the Danville asylum were read and at 4 o'clock the plaintiff, Miss Anna Dickinson, was called in re buttal. "How are you feeling," was Attor ney Hodse's first question. "Well, thanks," smilingly replied the witness, "except for a neuralgia pain in the face." "Is it true, as Dr. Meredith testified, that you are now In the same mental condition as when you were In the Danville asylum." "I hope so," was the reply. "My sur roundings ate somewhat different, how ever." Miss Dickinson described her rela tions with her sister Susan which she said were somewhat mixed und told of the length of time she was at hnmp each year during the time ehe was on the lecture platform. All her life she has b'epn subject to newspaper com ment some of which was very severe during the heat of political campaigns. She considered that these adverse com ments helped raither than Injured her for blame from nn enemy Is 'supposed to be equal to praise from a friend. NEW YORK TmnUNE'S ATTACKS. In 1872 and 1S73 the Now York Trib une, which prior to that had been very friendly, began to make unkind at tacks upon her and grossly misrepre sent facts with reference to her. This was, goon after the retirement of Hor ace Greeley. These attacks culminat ed on May 9, 1876, in a savage attack on b la "4nna Rftlvn " frown of Thorns, which received Its first pre sentation In Boston on the preceding night. The play was written by the plalntirr and tho criticism by "William "Winter, the dramatic editor ot the paper. Tho criticism wns followed by a press dispatch from Boston spcnklng fa voi ably of the play nnd contradicting the criticism of Mr. Winter as to tho manner In which tho play wns re ceived by the people of Boston. An ef fort was made ito have tho criticism read to the Jury, but Judge Acheson would not allow it or permit further testimony nlong that line, as It was not a part of the case that tho New York Tribune was conspiring against the Plaintiff nnd the criticism of the play wns only the opinion ot Mr. Winter, whose Initials were signed to tho ar ticle. Nevertheless Miss Dickinson man aged to lot tho Jurors know that the play was presented for two weeks In Boston and nbout tho time It closed Its engagement there a longer and more mnllgnnnt article than Mr. Winter's criticism appeared In tho Tribune which referred ndt only to the play, but made some very caustic remarks nbout her personally nnd about her business relations with those who sur rounded her. She never used liquor to excess nnd never told any one that sho did. She was told thnt Miss Frances E. "Wlllard and others had said that she was a common sot for years. SOME STRONG LANGUAGE. She presumed 'that she told Dr. John son that Miss Wlllard was a humbug, for she knew that lady was insincere and a liar, for she told untruths to wit ness' knowledge. One summer she was nt Ocean Grove and dropped In at the annual meeting of tho "Women's Chris tian Temperance union and made a speech with reference to women who drank which horrified 'the sisters and caused them to pray for her conversion to their creed. The papers of the country contained stories of the scene the speech caused, and Miss Wlllard wrote to witness ask ing her to deny In toto what she said at that meetlnc as set forth in the newspapers. She replied politely to Miss Wlllard, but declined to make such a sweeping correction. Inasmuch as the reports were true In the ab stract. Miss Wlllard took this letter, changed It and sent 1't forth as Miss Dickinson's letter of contradiction. This led witness to the conclusion that Miss Wlllard was both a humbug and a liar. Sho denied that she charged various prominent persons with conspiracy, but said she had spoken of them to her friends according to the way they treated her. Fanny Davenport had been unfair to her and she said so. She did not say that John GWhlttler wns a "wicked old man," but she did say that she thought he was "a cowardly old man," and she believed he mer ited the statement because of the way he treated his nephew's wife. She did not tell Allen Eggleston that she did not wanit him to think she was drunk ora bad woman and denied that she satd the wealthy men of Plttston were con spiring asalnst her. Never did she re fuse to take food or drink because she feared she would be poisoned. THAT EASTER LILY. Her reference to the Enster Illy as being her brother's soul she said had been wrongly stated and interpreted. What sho said was that It was em blematic of her brother's soul, as he was a person of very exalted character. At no time did she cut her sister's fin gers with a pair of scissors, and sh also denied having taken Mrs. March by the 'throat In the Danville Insane asylum. Her relations with Howe & Hummell with reference to her suit against the national Republican com mute were gone into minutely. She briefly outlined her relations with Dr. John Hellman from October, 1890, until she wns taken to the asylum. In the latter part of tho autumn of 1&90 she thousht he was presuming on her forbearance and as he was not a par ticularly well educated or well bred young man, according to her way of thinking, she made it a practice of not going into the room in which he was being entertained whenever he called at their house. She did this because she did not wish to be discourteous to a iierson In whom her sister was Interested. That she ever said to a physician or any one else that she used whisky to excess, she described as a "blank, unmitigated falsehood." This was for the purpose of contradicting what Dr. Hellman said to the effect that sho had told him that she was adlcted to the excessive use of liquor. The difficulty about a bill with Dr. Hall, the electrician, was described In a seemingly plain nnd simple manner. She did not say to Mrs. Glynn that a pure woman would find It nlmost im possible to advance on the stage though she might have said that a very good woman would find It somewhat diffi cult to cllmh upwards In the theatrical world for reasons which she said are patent to every one. THE LETTER TO BUTLER. Never did she say to her sister that she would write a letter that would bring General Butler to time even If he considered it blackmail. She did tell her sister that she would write to Gen eral Butler. Her sister often bor rowed money for her without her know ledge or consent and she would know nothing about it until asked to repay it. No physician ever advised her to go ito Carlsbad Springs In Germany, although she had half Jokingly spoken with her sister several times about go ing there. FUNERAL OF MRS. M'NALLY.

SUCCEEDED AGAINST GREAT ODDS An Irish Lnd Mho Und Nothing but His Genius to Aid Illm its n Stinelilcil Prisoner on it Convict Ship in 1800 nnd in 1800 n Public Monument Wns Krcctcd to Ills Memory in Uuo of the Greatest Cities in tho Greatest Country on tho Globe. Hon. John E. Barrett, the gifted edi tor ot tho Scranton Truth, lectured last night at St. Thomas college hall on "John Boyle O'Reilly." It wns the third event of the college lecture series nnd was attended by the largest audi ence of the course, so far. It was an audience, too, that was In thorough sympathy with the subject and the lecturer, as was attested by the ovation which greeted the appearance of the speaker, tho rapt attention with which the audience listened to tho story nnd the ringing applause which was evoked at Intervals during the course of the lecture nnd the very emphatic applause following Its conclusion. Mr. Barrett's effort might best be characterized as a friend's eulogy of a greatly revered nnd admired friend de livered to other friends and admirers Ho first sketched tho interesting story of tho young patriot's early life In Ire land, England, Australia and America; of his achievements ns a soldier, pa triot, poet, author, Journalist and phll throplst; of his great sympathetic na ture and other most prominent char acteristics; and then paid to him his own personal tribute, giving the esti mate he had formed from the long and close friendship which existed between them. It was remarkable, Mr. Barrett said, In his opening remarks, that an Irish boy with nothing to aid him but his natural talents and who In 1SG6 was put aboard a convict ship In chains bound for Australia, an exile, should In 1S9G have a monument erected to his mem ory and worth In one of the pilnclpal cities of America, by his admirer, all of whom he had won In so short a space o time. SKETCH OF O'REILLY'S LIFE. Mr. Barrett's brief sketch of O'Reil ly's life told of how during the Fenian movement In tha early 'CO's the young patriot, then a lad of 20, joined the Tenth Hussars and began the work of banding the Irish soldiers together in oath bound organizations with a view of turning against England when a propitious moment arrived, It being es timated at tho time that one-third of the English army was composed of Irishmen who stood ready to take ad vantage of the first opportunity to transfer their allegiance to an Irish re public. The plot was discovered, O'Reilly was arrested with other lead ers and summarily sentenced to death. This sentence was afterwards com muted to Imprisonment for life and for eight months the young patriot's valor and genius were restrained by Eng land's most Inhuman prisons, many of which to this day bear evidences of his tenantry In tho shape of short poems and epigrams, one of which will live as long as there Is left a spark of Irish patriotism: "Once an English soldier, but now an Irish felon, and proud of the exchange." O'Reilly was not content to remain In the Australian prison to die by Inches and although escape was generally be lieved to be well nigh Impossible, he determined to attempt It and by the aid of the prison chaplain, Rev. Father McCabe, and some friends whom the priest Interested In O'Reilly's case, he managed to get aboard an American whaler and after a series of stirring ad ventures reached America, landing In Philadelphia in 18C9. FAME CAME TO HIM. He went to Boston where In a short' time his tnlents won for him a prom inent pUco In Journalism and letters and the love and admiration of the na tion ot patriots. His work as editor of the Boston Pilot, his poems, stories and lectures were treated of in detail by Mr, Barrett and as an evidence that the appreciation of his worth was not confined to by limits of nationality or religion, he pointed outthe fnct that it was Mr. O'Reilly who was selected from all ot New England's brilliant men to write tho anniversary poem at tho Ply mouth rock commemorative exercises. His life was an epic, Mr. Barrett declared. He wrote many poems but his life wns his noblest poem. Ho wrote many romances but none of them equalled the story of his own life. During the course of the lecture Mr. Barrett repeated scraps of conversa tions he had had with O'Reilly, which gave an Insight Into the character of his subject that could not be gained from an autobiography and which was undoubtedly one of the most appreciat ed features of the lecture. - . m i FINE STORE BUILDING.

Yesterdny afternoon John Flnnegnn meandered Into the house of Anthony Lof tus, of Green's lane, nnd while there Flnnegnn cot Into a dispute with Mr. Loftus and Insinuated that the latter did not have the regard for tho truth that was entertained by the late G. "Washington. Loftus, It is alleged, dis played a gun with the muzzle point ing In Flnnegan's direction. Flnne gnn did not linger 'for further argu ment, but fled in tho direction of Green Ridge. Ho stopped running at the of fice of Alderman Bailey, where a war rant was procured for the arrest of Loftus. Constable Black arrested Loftus and brought him to tho office ot the alder man at about 8 o'clock lost evening for hearing. At the beginning of the pro ceedings Loftus drew near to Flnne gnn and whispered in his ear. A re cess was requested, during which the two went outside. When they returned Flnnegan stated that he was prepared to pay costs amounting to $3.90 nnd shake the hand that had held the gun. The arrangement was allowed by the alderman nnd the plaintiff and defend ant clasped hands and left tho office together apparently the best of friends, ns the war clouds cleared from the April skies. SCARENCO'S .FIENDISH CONDUCT. Committed nn Assault Upon a Sevcn-Ycnr-Olit Girl. Raphaela, the 7-year-old daughter of Dominica Dl Dominica was, according to evidence adduced before Alderman Howe yesterday afternoon, the victim of a fiendish assault last Sunday night by Nicola Scnrenco, aged 35 years. The principals are Italians who live in Dun more. The little girl wns placed npon the stand yesterday and told her story In a pitiful way. She said that she was alone in her father's house about 9 o'clock Sunday night when Scarenco entered and asked If any one was at home. The girl said no. So he took her on his knee nnd afterwards attempted to assault her. She screamed for help and three men who were passing at the time looked In through the window and witnessed Scarenco's brutal act. The three men are Joseph Lallo, Joseph Fablno and Frank Aqulve. They testified In the case yesterday. Alderman Howe held Scarenco In $300 ball. He could not furnish It and lie was sent to Jail to await trial by court R. J. Bourke looked after the prosecu tion and Frank E. Boyle represented the defendant.
