Aldermen Millar and Howe, of the
KIghth nnd Seventeenth wards, re
spectively, are entitled to the sym
pathy of a forgetful public. For the
past three weeks the troubles of the
disrupted Catbondale Furniture com
pany and Its parent the Scranton and
Carbondale Furniture company have
been aired In these courts.
Nine warrents have been wasted on
tho four or five principals In the
trouble. Hall hus been entered by N.
Knplln under three charges In the ag
gregate sum of $1200 and the Test of
the concern, Sarah Scldman, Fannie
Stldmtin and David Davidson, are un
der lesser amounts of ball. All that
can be learned from the chaos of talk
masquerading as evidence Is that there
were such companies, they disbanded,
some ono was lleeced and the evil that
films do lives after them.
The eighth inning was played before
Alderman Howe yesterday afternoon
nr.d the only exciting incident was
when Attorney Charles P. O'Mnlley
jumped up and laid stern hand's en a
witness who was about to loavo the
alderman's sanctum.
"Take your hands off that man or I
will sue you for assault!" cried At

TO IMPROVE THE PARK.
Plans Park Commissioners Have in Mind
for Nay Aug Would Cost Over
Eighty Thousand Dollars.
During February councils passed a
Joint resolution requesting the uark
commissioners to submit an estimate
of what it would cost to put Nay Aug
park In good shape.
The commissioners submitted the re
quest to A. H. Eggerton, the landscape
gardener who was engaged two vara
ago to make a plan for the'general Im
provement of the park, and who, in all
likelihood will superintend the con
templated Impiovements.
Mr. Eggerton after much figuring
and bovernl visits to the giound, gave
it ns his opinion that the park can be
made a very Inviting place by the ex
penditure, of between $SO,000 and $50,-
000.
First and foremost among the Im
provements contemplated Is a campus
for athletic sports, base ball, foot ball,
tennis, hand ball nnd the like, and a
good sized lake on which boating will
lie possible and which will have what
Is dealt ed more than any one other ap
purtenance of a park a good bathing
beach. Then there 'will be main and
subsidiary driveways, terraces and a
pcrgold, or balcony, overlooking the
chnsm, a band stand, rustic and rock
bridges, wood paths, sunken gardens,
grottoes nnd acquatlc gardens, large
pavilion, rustle shelters and' retiring
rooms, benches, wagon sheds and flow
er beds and other artificial ornamenta
tion. These various Items he figures
out would cost about as follows:
Main driveways $18,"J0I

To raise tho necessary $S3,010 it w11
be necessary to bond the city as It Is
out of tho question Just at present
rto secure such an amount from the
general revenues. Whether or not
councils will see their way clear to
make an Immediate or at least early
move In the matter remains to be seen.

Seven Applications for Transportation
Made at Yesterday's Meeting.
IT WOULD COST 510,000 A YEAR
Director fuller Hny's That Ho Could
Unsily Spend That Amount If Ho
Grunted All tlm Applications Thru
Arn .!Indr) to Him forltnilrotid True.
Mr. Shutter) Mnhc u Ilepnrt Thnt
Ho Would llnvo Understood Is Not
a Coniplnlnt.
There were fourteen applications for
relief before the poor oonrd yesterdnv
and Just half of the nppllcunts were
after free transportation.
Most of them enmc before tho bon"d
by direction of Director Fuller. He
said he wanted his colleagues to know
something of the class of anollcntlons
he hns to deal with. Not a day passes
but some one comes to him with a
tale of woo nnd a request for transpor
tation. Some of them, he said, are
verltnblo tramps, others mo possibly
deserving, but the most of them are
nt least questionable. If he granted
all demands of this nature made noon
him, he would spend $10,000 a year.
Ono of the applicants was Kdwn-d
Delmont, of Kenslngto.i, 111. His
home nnd restaurant were burned
down, nnd with only a few dollars In
his pocket, he started for Scranton
with his wife and uged uarents, in
tending to open uii a quick lunch eat
ing house here. He went to Allentown
Hi st and then came on heie with $!) In
his pocket. Yesterdny he nnd all his
money sient, with the exception of 59
cents, and as he did not want to con
tract a bill which he could not pav.
took his wife and parents out of the
hotel wheie they had been stopping,
and established them In the Delaware,
Lackawanna nnd Western station
while he went out looking for help.
WAS GIVHN HKLP.
Mr. Fuller on Thursday had declined
to help him and advised him to go be
fore the bonrd. He was the first to
enter vhen the door was opened to
the nppllcnnts, nnd ho proceeded nt
onco to put up a fight for transporta
tion to New York. After about ten
minutes of questioning and argument
he came out on top, and with an order
for four tickets In his hand he list
ened out to get his party nbonrd the
3.33 vestlbuled train for New York.
Next came John Larson, who dr'ft"d
in here looking for work. He wanted
to bo sent back to his home In Cleve
land, O. After sizing up his six-foot-one
of pronounced rugijedness and
contemplating tho excellent condition
of the highways, the board told him
to take himself off.
rtrldget Ma Ha, of Cedar nvenue,
wanted to be tent to Wnrren, Pa., to
her daughter, who would suppoit her
If she could get out there. The hoard
told her she might stay at the Hillside
Homo until such time ns her dnugh
ter was able to send for her. She ac
cepted tho offer.
Ann Gammon, of the West SUIp, nn
unman led woman with two children,
wnnted to be sent back to Lngland.
but the board, which has already cared
for her on two occasions, refused her
rccuest.
WANTS HKR CHILDItEN AGAIN.
Ellen Paskervllle, of Theodore street,
enmt before tho board with a demand
for her four children who were Inden
tured to St. Patrick's orphanage and
St. Joseph's Foundling home, while
she and heriiusband were In the coun
ty Jail doing thirty days for drunken
ness and fighting. The board said she
couldn't have them and she went away
seeming not to care a great deal.
Under the head of repot ts of direc
tors, Mr. Shotten announced that ho
had to call an outside physician to
care for a case which Dr. Williams,
the board's outdoor physician, said he
hadn't tlmo to nttend. He was not
limiting tho repoit In the nnture of n
complaint, but merely that he might
have the hoard ratify his action. His
action wns ratified without any discus
sion. Overseer Loftus, of Fell township,
nppeared before the board with the re
quest that It take an boarders three
paupers of his district. They have no
poor house In the townthlp, nnd It
would be cheaper, he thought, to pay
for their caie nt the Hillside Homo
thnn to pay for their keeping at some
of the citizen's houses In the township,
as would be necessary If the board
would not accept them. It was decid
ed to accept them, nnd the charges
were left to tho homo committee.
