This year's graduating class from the Scranton high Bchool the first that will leave the new building Is the larg est In the history of the Scranton public schools. Principal George Phillips' latest and final summing up shows that the clasB will number sixty-two persons, of whom the greater number, ns has always been the rule, aro young la dles. The now currlculmn being far more advanced than the discarded series of studies and tho generally Increased ef ficiency of the school has resulted In keeping the highest average of stu dents somewhat lower than that of pre vious years. Tho valedictorian of this year's class is Miss Luella Warren, with an average of 93. The rest of the seven honor graduates are; Miss Cora Relph, Miss Josle Stevans, Sol Drlesen, George Walter, Miss Leone Gregory and Miss Lillian Brooks. Miss Helph will be the salutntorlan. ON'LY SnVKN HONORS. In former yeats the number of hon or students has been ten, but the com mencements exercises have always rroven too lengthy with this number of participants, and the curtailment this year will not only better the en tertainment, but has also created a more earnest struggle for place3 by the high school pupils. The commence ment night this year will be on Juno 18. The exercises will be In line with those of former years, with tho ex ception that no presents of Mowers or gifts In any form will be received on the stage by the pupils, per the recent ly Issued mandate of the board of control. The class of '97 has already organ ized with the following officers: P. E. Kllcullen, president; George Orr, vice president: Mlsa Margaret Tuopp, sec retary, and Miss Lela Porter, treas urer. Mr. Kllcullen, the president, Is also editor or "High. School Impressions," the school Journal which was success fully launched this term and has been successfully maintained through Mr. Kllcullen's energetic efforts. THE CLASS MOTTO. The class motto Is "Be earnest," In scribed In Latin. Announcements have been ordered and a class pin decided upon. The pin will be a pretty combi nation of blue and gold, the class colors. A gold wreath with a background of blue and the Inscription "S. H. S." " '97" is the form of tho msmento. A new departure which Is being talked of by the class Is a "class day." This has not been definitely decided upon, but probably will be before commencement day. Another matter which Is being discussed Is the weartng or not the wearing of "full drew suits" by the gentlemen. This li a matter of real perplexity. The only opposition to the gentle Idea Is the fact that It would es tablish a precedent which might be hard to follow by future classes, how ever their members might wish It. This matter Is In doubt. A complete list of this year's gradu ates could not.be obtained last night. The following are known to hae suc cessfully passed the 73 per cent, mark: Alda Atkinson, Gertrude Bennett, Cora Bolph, Leona Gregory, May Kclfer.

His allegation Is that the Judgment on which the sale took place was fraudulent. Attorney Joseph P. McCullcn, of Phil adelphia, end Vosburg & Dawson rep resent the plaintiff, and Attorneys C, II.

Tlicy Cnvo nu Interesting Ilccitnl in Her Studio, Miss Dorsey's studio was crowded last evening to hear her pupils In their fifth monthly recital. Tho rendition of one of Eugene Field's poema by Miss Susie Gross was excellent. Miss Gross possesses a rare musical voice which Bho uses to great advantage. Miss Elizabeth Moyle and' Miss Mary E. Bar rett were excellent In tho ports as signed them. "The Minuet," by Miss Ollvo Jad wln, showed Mlsi Jadwln's work In Del sarto had not been In vain. Miss An nie Tlerney recited "Llttlo Golden Hair," by Carleton, In charming style, while Miss Carrie Hess and Miss Cora Bchotter greatly amused tho audience by "The Duel" ami "Pat and the Pig," respectively. Miss Cornelia Moredock kept her au dience In roars of laughter by 'Carol Bird's Christmas Dinner Party," which h twite in a manner worthy of tho highest prats', Tho treat of the evening was "ftol- lege Oil Cans," as recited by Professor Arthur L. Dorsey. His Impersonation of each character was faultless, and moved his hearers alternately to laugh ter and tears. Tho music furnished by the Held brothers and Arthur L. Tlsdel was a charming feature of the evening's pro gramme. Mlsa Dorsey's ability as an Instructor was evidenced by tho ar rangement and execution of so excel lent a programme. FLYNN IS ELECTED. Supreme Court So Decrees Three Months After He Has Finished Serving Out Ills Term. Decisions In two Lackawanna cases were handed down yesterday by the Supreme court. Tho finding of the lower court was reversed In the con tested election case of Edward J. Burke against John J. Flynn and Flynn was declared elected. Thla contest comes from the Third ward of Olyphant and1 grew out of tho. election held In February, 1891. Flynro received CS votes for councilman and Burke C3. A contest was Instituted and a re count showed that each had received CO votes. The hearings before the con test commissioner disqualified 25 votes. Thirteen of these were found to have voted for Flynn, eleven for Burke and one was go defective that It was Im possible to tell who It was for. Three of the votes which Burke re ceived were attacked by the respond ents on the ground that they had not been marked In accordance with the provisions of the Baker ballot law, the X In two cases being In the wrong po sition and the other case being absent altogether the voters marking his bal lot with, a "one." Judge Archbald decided that this marking did not meet with the exact requirements of the law, but as the voters Intention was clearly shown lie would not nullify the votes. On this ground the case was appealed and by the decision It will hereafter be necessary for election boards to be particular as to the marking of th ballots. Warren & Knapp aro the at torneys for Flynn. Flynn's term ex pired last February. x In the case of the Berlin Iron Bridge company' nsalnst J. W.

John McMillan's vote was disquali fied without question, he having voted on first papers. Some doubt was thrown on the vote of O. J. Marcy, be cause It was found ho had been as sessed In the First ward of Scranton. Henry Miller's vote was also put In the doubtful column, he having voted on his father's papers, and not having the papers at hand to prove his con tention. He says ho can get them, however. Fred Harper's taxes were brought Into question, but It Is expect ed he will be able to save his vote when called In rebuttal. MANY CITY WARRANTS DRAWN.

Mlslilcr Not Interested Hero Now. As announced In Tho Tribune some months ago the Frothlngham theater will le known as the Lyceum next sea son and It will be practically under the same management as the Academy of Music. At tho last named house only popular priced companies will nppear while tho Lyceum will book the first class atti actions. This will give the city a greater variety ns well as a greater number of theatrical attrac tions than It had last season. Papers pertaining to tho Joint management aro being prepared and pending the signa tures of the parties Interested being at tached to them there Is difficulty In ascertaining the exact facts. John D. Mlshler nnd M. H. Burgun dcr no lonser constitute the firm of Mlshler & Burgunder with theaters at Scranton, Wllkes-Barre, Reading, Ha zleton and other places. Mr. Mlshler has reached that time of life when hn no lonser cares to look after tho de tails pertaining to the management of a large circuit of theaters and has sur rendered his Interest In the Academy of Music in this city and the Grand Opera house in Wllkes-Barre. Mr. Burgunder gives up his Interest In tho other theaters of the circuit and has made an arrangement with Wagner and Rels, lessees of the Lyceum, con cerning the theatrical business In this city and Wllkes-Barre. WILL DIVIDE THE BUSINESS. Mr. Burgunder In the lessee of the) Academy of Music In this city, and although it Is not ua modern In its ap pointments as the Lyceum it demon strated during the season that has Just closed that it can command a large slice of the local patronage. Mr. Bur gunder also holds the lease of tho Grand Opera house of Wllkes-Barro and as he Is one of the stockholders of the company that Is erecting the new opera house for that city It Is reason able to suppose that lie will also be Its lessee. Wagner & Rels have been anxious to get a theater In Wllkes-Barre as they could, do their booking to much better advantage If they could place compa nies In both cities. The new arrange ment solves the difficulty. The Grand opera house In Wllkes Barre will be run on the same basis as the Academy of Muslo with, prices ranging from 15 to 75 cents and the first-class attractions will be billed for the Lyceum and the new Wllkes-Barre theater. This arrangement will pre vent any fighting between the houses and make It possible for the manage ment of theso houses to get better terms from tho companies they sign contracts with. MANAGERS OF THE HOUSES. Johh L. Kerr will be succeeded as manager of the Lyceum by Mr. Fer rlngton, of 'Wllllamsport, who luxd cliarge of Wagner & Rels' theater at that place during the season which has just closed, A. J. Duffy will be treas urer. There Is little doubt but that Harvey Long will continue to be manager of tho Academy of Music. His success with that house last season demon, strates that he has properly guaged the theatrical business In this olty. ENJOYABLE MAY SOCIAL.

"The Laundry" was the subject of Mies Parloa's lecture yesterday after noon. The ladles who were furtunate enough to attend listened to a very helpful discussion of a factor In domes tic economy Which, as Miss Parloasald, "wo keep as mutch ob possible out of sight and indeed out of mind." MlS3 Parloa deliberated upon the Im portance of the laundry In Its relation to health, comfort and decency la life. It Is very Important that tho fabrics should be washed In such a manner that all dirt shall be removed and yet without too great a strain upon the tissue of the fabric. "Tho beat authorities' said the lec turer, "are divided as to the best means of doing this. Hard rubbing wears the fabric; chemicals loosen, tho dirt and thus relievo tho cloth from much hard rubbing, but at the earhe time the chemical does not' stop with tho dirt but attacks tho fabric also." Miss Parloa advocated, an Intelligent use of chemicals to old in loosening the dirt but If card bo not taken she thought It better to use soap and water and tho extra rubbing. Tho great fault Is that the chemical Is commonly expected to do all the work and not simply as an old. The lecturer then discussed tho va rious opinions of laundresses on the point of soaking or rinsing the clothes before washing. She thought that by allowing the clotlwa to remain In the water for several hours the dirt would yield more readily. The day for washing was designated by Miss Parloa as Monday, It being the generally accepted day but some housekeepers employ Monday for pre paring for the washing. This Is a matter which rests with' the opinion of the housekeeper Individually, Miss Parloa advised that clothing be mend ed before being put in the wash. This .avoids the probability of further dam age during the process of washing, drying and Ironing. The lecturer then gave instructions In detail" according to tho plan which hhe has studied. This proved thoroughly beneficial and Interesting. Instruction was also giv en for the preparation of blueing water nnd particularly did the lecturer tell of the peculiar changes In flannel fabrics when In water. "Starching" and "stains" also received minute attention. During the lecture Miss Parloa read some of, the rule3 on the subject which she has laid down In her valuable book "The Young Housekeeper." Tho last lecture will be given this afternoon on the subject of "Table Service." This wilt probably prove the best lecture of the course as It discusses a particular branch of home management which is the most liable to comment, either complimentary or otherwise. Miss Parloa has given much thought and the added result of careful obser vation to this subject and her views will be Invaluable.. The lectures are given at the Young Men's Christian Association hall; single admission, 75 cents. m IN ALL ITS COMPLETENESS. Foropnueli nnd Sells Hrothers' Show Will Exhibit Iloro Snturdny.
